MASCOTS MIKE SAWYER SUE CLINE CLASS HISTORY The Freshman Class came into existence in the fall of 1946 comprised of thirty-nine students who were eager for a chance at what we visualized as a new era in our young lives. The sponsor for this new and exciting work was Mrs. W.A. Stoker. We were greatly pleased to find that nine of our classmates had made the ball teams; Helen Lippard, Lala Swicegood, June Clodfelter, Preston Barber, Jimmie Bame, Billy Wilhelm, Roy Beaver, Ray Powlas, and Roy Mayhew Jr. As this our first year in high school came to a close, we could concentrate in a more profitable manner and had gained a better conception of high school life. After a very trying year we found ourselves one step nearer the goal of our ambition by being made Sophomores under the gui- dance of Mr. W. Edward Ellis. Five members of our class had dropped out, but we were joined by three new members: Claudine Swicegood, Dollie Allen, and Doris Wood. This brought our number to thirty-six. We selected as our leaders Nola Kyles, President; Preston Barber, Vice-President; Dorothy Graham, Secretary; Roy Mayhew Jr., Treasurer. Three members of our class--Nola Kyles, Jimmie Bame, Preston Barber—were invited to join the Cleveland Chapter of the National Beta Club. Nineteen hundred forty-eight came too soon, and we found our- selves Juniors under the supervision of Miss Martha Lefler. Some of our members had married, others found the road too difficult, and we started the year with only thirty enthusiastic Juniors. The pre- dominate were Jimmie Bame, President; Billy Wilhelm, Vice-President; Betty Smith, Secretary; and Preston Barber, Treasurer. Under the direction of Miss Lefler, a three-act comedy, Elmer, The Youngest, was played successfully to a large audience. The performers were Jimmie Bame, Walter Pennell, June Clodfelter, Ramona Allen, Ruth Witherspoon, Billy Wilhelm, Larston Reitzel, Betty Smith, Ray Powlas, Gilbert Myers, Wilbert Hall, Dorothy Graham, and Geraldine Cline. A week’strip to Washington was enjoyed by several of the Junior’s who accompanied the Senior Class on their last trip as a school group. During this week all the places of interest in the Nation's Capitol were visited by the group. The spotlight of the year was our Junior-Senior prom, the first ever held at Cleveland High. All class members worked very hard to sell Christmas cards, everyday greeting cards, and wrapping paper to supply money for this exciting event. One evening, the seventh of May, we invited the Seniors to dance with us in the gaily decorated gymnasium. Honors for several class members werebbestowed as our Junior year drew to a close. Marshalls for the outgoing Seniors were Nola Kyles, Preston Barber, Jimmie Bame, June Clodfelter, and Larston Reitzel. Jimmie Bame was awarded the medal for the Best-All-Round student, while June Clodfelter found herself a member of the Beta club. We were a class of thirty-one as we entered the rank of senior- ity with our everloving and faithful sponsor, Miss Martha Lefler. Two new boys, Tommy Douglas and Joe Graham, were accepted into our ranks at the beginning of this year. As leaders for our final year in high school we chose Preston Barber, President; Lucy Warren, Vice-President; Betty Smith, Secretary; and Charles Waller, Trea- surer. Several things happened early in the year which stamped it as a year that will always stand out in our memory. One of our fellow classmates, Betty Smith, was chosen and crowned Homecoming Queen for the first homecoming football game ever planned at Cleveland High School. Our class rings, which were ordered in the spring of our Junior year, reached us December 17. We, as Seniors, had taken the responsibility of publishing the fourth edition of the CLEVANA. As this annual goes to press, the chief events of the year--the Junior- Senior prom, the Senior play, Class Day Exercises, and Graduation Night--are yet to come. Now as our last year in high school draws to a close, we dis- cover how very, very much high school and all that goes with it means and has meant to us. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to our faithful teachers, who have so nobly guided us into the paths of useful and worthwhile services, and to our devoted parents, who so willingly met every demand that was necessary to give us the proper education for all life. So the class of '50 regretfully, yet joyfully, completes its work in Cleveland High School. We hope that we may live up to the noble ideas which have been instilled in us here. June Clodfelter, Historian. CLASS PROPHECY My goodness, only fifteen minutes left to get to that station! I’ll never make it, I said, as I hurriedly changed from my costume to my traveling outfit. I was at last getting away from the hustle and bustle of Broadway for a two weeks vaca- tion to my old home town, Salisbury, and its neighboring city of Cleveland. This was the first time I was going home for any length of time in ages. Perhaps I would be able to catch up on the latest when I got home. Although I’ve received many letters, they have told me very little about my old school chums”. It's been almost seven years now since I've seen the gang”, and I’m really anxious to know just what they’ve been doing with themselves. Gosh! this zipper’s out of place, and everything else is packed away. If I’d only learned some Home Ec! Repaired at last, I say quick farewells, promising to be back in two weeks for rehearsal of Midnight Dream” to be presented on Broadway next spring. Where to, Miss asked the taxi driver. Grand Central Station, I replied, with a faint smile creeping around my mouth and a dreamy look in my eyes. I settle back and ride the five long blocks to the station with eager anticipation. After riding for about twelve hours I'm at last nearing Salis- bury. As I step off the train with the intention of calling a cab, (no one knew I was coming) I think to myself, That sailor over by the phone booth surely looks familiar, I hate to be rude but” --Why its none other than Charlie Waller!! I walk over to him with outstretched hand but not a glimpse of recognition appears on his surprised face. After telling him who I am, we begin a friendly chat. He says his train doesn't leave for San Francisco for twenty minutes, which gives us some time for talking. He tells me he truly enjoys the Navy, and plans to make it his career. He isn't the same shy boy with whom I attended school seven years ago, I think to myself because he just surprised me with the announcement that he was married to a former California girl and has two children. Can you imagine that? And Charlie never paid any attention to girls in high school! After saying goodbye I hail a cab to start on my journey home. Who should be driving the cab but Wilbert Hall. He tells me he is now working for Walter Pennell who owns a chain of taxis. We pass a large chain store by the name of Helen's Five Ten,” which is owned and operated by the former Helen Lippard who is now Mrs. Bill Hoffner. I'll get out at the next corner, I say to Wilbert. Just as I step out of the cab, I run into Dorothy Davis and Dollie Allen. Dot tells me she's still in training at ’Duke to be a doctor. Dollie has already graduated from nurses training and can hardly wait for the day when she can be Dot's office nurse. I suggest going into the drug store for a coke and talking over some of our old school days. It seems Dot and Dollie know quite a lot about the gang. They tell me that Dorothy Graham is now married to June Mayhew who is owner of several large McLean Trucks, and it seems they have a beautiful home and two lovely children. It seems Ray Powlas's good agriculture grades have made him a prosperous farmer around the Cleveland vicinity. Farmers and marriage are really leading in the graduation class of fifty. Joe Graham has also chosen farming and marriage for his career. Now getting to the fine culture our class possessed, I find that Lucy Warren has recently graduated from Philadelphia Music Hall, and is teaching music at Mary Washington College in Virginia, a school noted for its refinement in music. Another classmate who followed the line of music but in a different way is Tommy Douglas. Tommy now has his own Hill-billy band and plays for the square dances, which still go at Cleveland every Friday night. Dena Swicegood has also chosen marriage as a career. It seems she has a dress shop in her home which takes a great deal of time, not including the time she spends with her children and her husband. Ruth Southers is now teaching Home Economics at Statesville High School and is doing a wonderful job. The quiet Clara Mae Thigpen is now married to R. L. Steeleman, the boy who controlled her heart all through high school. Two nurses that are devoted to their professions are Betty Sue Kyles who is head nurse at Longs Hospital and Nola Kyles director of nurses at the Good Samaritan Hospital” in Charlotte. Several girls in the class of fifty decided on secretarial work as their career. Doris Wood is now typist for a large newspaper. Nattie Galligher is a secretary for an auto company and is now engaged to the boss’s son. Ruth Witherspoon’s tiny figure has been for the best of her abilities. She is now secretary in the large Brickmas Ice Company, which requires alertness and quietness. Peggy Beck is a secretary in the offices of Erwin Cotton Mills in Cooleemee, her good typing grades putting her on the ladder of success. The cokes in our glasses had long vanished when I decide I have to say goodbye with a promise that I'll write just as soon as possible. After spending the first two days at home I decide to visit the little town of Cleveland. The first place to go was the high school. The school has been enlarged a great deal since I was here last. It now possesses a band, and the faculty has increased more than three times in number since 1950. I go slowly up the steps, enjoying all the added beauty. As I enter the office, whom should I See first but, Mrs. Floyd Holt, the former June Clodfelter, who is Mr. Spears secretary. Lala Swicegood, who graduated from Appalachian with a high degree in Mathematics (her favorite subject) is now teaching Mathematics at the high school. Preston Barber, a former Davidson Football star, has now taken over the coaching duties at the school. I learn from Preston that Jimmy Bame is now a great brain surgeon at the Walter Reid Hospital and is doing a fine job. Dr. Bill Wilhelm, the great fullback for Cleve- land in forty-nine, is now an expert Horticulturest and owns his own nursery in Salis- bury. Although Larston Reitzel hasn’t reached the height of his ambition as President of the United States, he is a handwriting expert for the F.B.I. As I’m coming through Cleveland I stop at Wilhelms for some gas and whom should I see but Betty Smith with her oldest son, Robert, Jr. Returning home I see a small rambling farmhouse on a sloping hill and whose name should be on the mail box but Mr. G. R. Myers. As I go slowly up the drive way, I see his charming little wife, the former Geraldine Cline. After sampling some of her delicious coffee and cake I continue on my way. Just as I arrive home the phone rings and my dear friend, Mary Alice Christie, invites me to spend the night with her at her apartment. She now has a kindergarten of her own. After talking late into the night I think as I go off to sleep, My, how things have changed and how wonderful everyone has done.” And then I close my eyes with a sigh- How I dread to get back to the city away from this Carolina quietness.” LAST WILL AMD TESTAMENT We, the Senior Class of Cleveland High School, being of sound mind and sane judgment and by our own desire and intent, do hereby execute this document as our final testament.

In Witness whereof, I, Betty Smith, have been authorized, directed, and delegated by the Senior Class to bring together its Last Will and Testament and with its help do hereunto set my hand and affix my seal, on this, the eighteenth day of May, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and fifty. Betty Smith Testator Witnessed by: Doris Wood , Walter Pennell , Peggy Beck THE STATISTICS OF '50 OR WHAT YOU'D LIKE TO FORGET No characters listed below are fictional, although they should be, and any similarities between them and any other living thing is nothing to brag about. According to a recent nation-wide survey, I find that the Great 1950 Senior Class of Cleveland High School is composed of thirty-one members and almost that many students. Unless I have been very badly fooled, twenty of our class are girls while the smaller percen- tage of only eleven are boys. Because of this reason the girls have always won the badly disputed and possible crooked elections by a landslide, or maybe I should say by a handslide. The boys’ standing average, barefoot or in the summer, is five feet and ten inches (?) and their sitting average is about .9 of the time. The average standing height of the girls is five feet and six inches, and they have a pretty good sitting average too. In the weight catagory here’s what we find: The boys have an average weight of 158 pounds - a handsome figure for such handsome lands. The girls, reminding one of Geometry as they study their figures - and they know all the angles, have an average weight of 145 pounds, a well-fed bunch. Now we come to the shoe size business in which we really have something. Billy Wilhelm has something, that is, he takes the cake with a size 11 1 2. In spite of this, he is disappointed because he wanted a foot. Even with Billy’s foot in the business, we still average out with a neat 10 1 9 size. The girls’ average shoe size is a slopy 6 6 6. As nobody in this class wears a hat, we naturally don’t need a a hat size. This may prove to be trouble some day as St. Peter may not give some of us that golden crown because of this lack of knowledge. This remarkable group of Seniors has potentialities for many kinds of occupations, ranging from a doctor to a professional loafer and from an architect to a card player. Yes, we have one guy who wants to be a poker player, and if he isn’t careful, he may make an Ace” of himself some day. We should naturally include our average favorite subjects, so here they are: The class as a hole prefers Dick Tracy to Shake- speare, while the girls' favorite subject is boys and the boys' favorite subject is, as you have probably guessed, hopscotch, espec- ially with real scotch (or bourbon.) Here are some more things you will enjoy knowing when you are a hundred years old: The grades on our report cards average from A, once in a while, to D-. There are more Baptist than any other church denomination. The things we like to sing best are songs and, of course, we would rather eat food than anything else. This concludes the Statistics of 1950; but soon, when we are freed or graduated from school, and when we are no longer to see this splendid group of people day by day, we will have only this annual with these statistics to which we can refer. We will always remem- ber some of our dear classmates, while the rest of them, we will never forget. When those grave days come that separate us from this wonderful class, may we read these Statistics and think of them as representing us in this way: Here (these statistics) is the shell; the nuts have gone!! Larston Reitzel Statistician THE END OR THE BEGINNING Some people go to school for days of fun; Others go because it keeps them on the run; While those that go to learn are few, We surely hope that's why we do. By grumbling and griping each passing day, Of tasks that were given all along the way, We now have come near the time When we shall leave all this behind. To teachers, thanks, for helping bit by bit And giving us a kick when we had need of it; They have worked with us side by side And watched us progress stride by stride. Yet after all is finished and over, We find that we're still not in beds of clover. The worst is yet to come they say; We now must earn our bread each day. So now we part and go our way, Hoping to meet again some day Since no one knows when it may be, For that we must just wait and see.
