SENIORS CLASS COLORS Blue and White CLASS FLOWER Red Rose CLASS POEM To our dear school, ole Cooleemee High, We give our praise to thee, For knowledge, courage, and honor, too, For truth that makes men free. For twelve long years you've been, dear school, A teacher, friend, and guide, And for the help you've given us Our hearts are filled with pride. Hardships we've had, though few they were, We've fought the battle bold To build our lives for things to come -- The future to unfold. Classmates are filled with joy and glee Because success is won, Some goals are reached, some aims achieved, Some tasks in life begun. Though time and life must come and go, As memories linger nigh Our thoughts will hold them dear to us -- The days at Cooleemee High . Our hearts are filled with loyalty As praise we give to thee, Dear Cooleemee School, you gave your best To the class of '53. CLASS POET ESS Ruby Shoof CLASS HISTORY Four years ago, in 1949, approximately fifty-three eager boys and girls, leaving the dear grammer grades be- hind, entered the walls of Cooleemee High School to spend four of the happiest and most eventful years of life's ioumey. Miss Purcell was stuck with the girls, and Mrs. Bost had the boys to cope with. Until we really got use to our new surroundings, we had quite a time finding our way around . Had it not been for the guidance of our advisors and other high school members, we couldn't have gotten along. The officers for the Freshman girls were: Vice- President, Rilla Hilliard, President, Nancy Veach, Secretary, Ruby Shoaf, and for the boys: President, Doyle Spry, Vice-President, Donald Wall, Secretary, Charles Wofford. This was our first chance to participate in sports so we were very proud of the fact that Donald Wall made the football team, and later became a star. We were happy when three of our girls made the basketball team: Patsy Shaver, Delores Jordan, and Virginia Petty, and Merlyne Moore became a cheerleader. A surprisingly n um ber of the class joined the various clubs. Realizing that the school year was drawing to a close and that we had accomplished, what we thought, a lot, we made plans to carry forward. After a full school year and a short summer, we became Sophomores. Mrs. Dameron and Mr. Young were our advisors. We were gaining more confidence that year, we also welcomed a newcomer, Charles Moore, to our class. That yearwe had three girlsand one boy to make the basketball teams, three boys made the football team, and one, the baseball team. Two successful events of the year were our hayride and Christmas party. The honor of being an attendant to the Homecoming Queen was bestowed upon a classmate, Peggy Grubb. We were sorry when Mrs. Dameron left us. She was replaced by Mr. Collins, and through his guidance qnd understanding we continued our work. Then came our Junior year! Mrs. Lester was our advisor. The class officers were elected as follows: President, Doyle Spry, Vice-President, Betty Brooks, Secretary, Letty Wagner, Treasurer, James Barber. This proved to be a very exciting year. Our Junior play, Strained Relations, was very successful. We were very proud of the fact that two of our girls made the cheerleading squad, ten boys made the football team, five boys and three girls made the basketball teams. That year two of our girls served as attendants to the Homecoming Queen. The most colorful and exciting event of that year was the Junior-Senior Banquet at the Robert E. Lee Hotel in Winston-Salem, North Ca rol ina. The theme of the Banquet--St. Patrick's Day--was carried out through the entire program. We were greatly honored when five of the Juniors acted as Marshals and the remaining Juniors acted as ushers for the Seniors at the Commencement Exercises. After this we heaved a sigh of relief and settled down to summer. Almost sooner than we had expected, our Senior year was here. Our class had dwindled to thirty-two. Under the direction of Mrs. June Hicks, we gave a three act comedy, A H en pecked Husband. The class officers were: President, Doyle Spry, Vice-President, Patsy Shaver, Secretary, Kay Messick, Treasurer, Nancy Hoffman. Again we were represented by both boy and girls in sports, and Betty Long was cheerleader. We gained two new members--Arnold Spry and Ben Childers. We are looking forward to our trip to Washington, the Junior-Senior Banquet, in which we will be the honor- ed guests, and the greatest event of all--our Commencement Exercises. Now aswe look back over the twelve years of work and play, we feel a great sense of achievement. We real- iie that this is our last year of High School, but really only the beginning ofa new life. With uplifted faces, we silently breathe a prayer that God will help us use the knowledge and training that we have gained to the making ofa better notion in which to live. HISTORIAN Betty Spry Brooks CLASS PROPHECY Only three minutes more. Then all ofa suddenl Clangl Clangl Came the loud three o'clock school bell. Slaml Bangl Books falling from desks. Restless children were running from every direction, yelling and rejoic- ing at the top of their voice. School dismissed until Monday. What a relief! My head ached, but I was happy with the work that I had choosen as my Iife's work. A teacher in a small country school. Then when I was alone, I sat down at my desk and looked across the empty school room. Then Ibegan to think about my old room at Cooleemee School and the Class of '53. As I sat there I could see each of my fellow stu- dents at the work that they had choosen as their career. First of all I saw Kenneth Sales, who is the owner of the world's largest dance club, The-Lose-Your-Blues Club. He told me that Sammy Cope was his bandleader and that Arnold Spry was star vocalist. Arnold Spry finally got Peggie Grubb to say yes , and now they are happily married. I then saw Charles Wofford, who is now a star on Dick Groat's all-star team. Doyle Spry is also on the team, he plays guard. Doyle and Charles were star athletes at Cooleemee. Next there was Patsy Shaver and Peggy Spry. They always liked basketball and are now coaches. Patsy at Cleveland and Peggy at Mocksville. Delores Jordan and Betty Brooks, who both married during school, are now the mothers of twin boys. Dorothy Declmon, Letty Wagner, ancl Betty Jean Hamilton are now private secretaries at the Erwin Mills. Daniel Miller and Edward Carter are now partners in the world's largest trucking firm, CARTER AND MILLER, INC. Clara Hepler ancl Esther Lagle are now the shorthand champions of the world--- l40 words a minute. I then saw a hospital, so I guessed that some of my schoolmates were working in there. As quick as I walked in the door, I heard over the loud speaker, Dr. Childers and Dr. Barber needed in the emergency room. I iust held my breath becausel felt thatl knew Dr. Childers and Dr. Barber. I did know them---Ben Childers and James Barber. If James Barber was a doctor it was because of the pretty nurses. They turned out to be Nancy Veach and Ruby Shoaf. I still kept wondering what had happened to Jessie Whitaker and Nancy Hoffman. Then I saw them, trying to get the boys to say yes. I ask about Betty Long and they told me that she had finally married a sailor. They also told me that Larry McCullough and William Livengood were done in the game of love and were now stock car drivers. Don Nichols was their mechanic. Then I saw a sign, The Man Who Broke the Record of Sleep- ing the Most. It tumed out to be Jack SIeepy Seamon. His manager was Dock Spillman. Roscoe Jones is now the owner ofa chain of grocer stores. Then I awoke! I ran quickly next door to tell Janet Bowers what had happened. Janet is also a school teacher. She and lenioyed the remainder of the aftemoon recalling our yes- ter years.
