Page Twenty CLASS PUEM We've finished! Yes, We've finished here, And yet, we've just begun, vr We've only Hnished warming up Before life's race is run. How strange that we, who seem so Should be so separate, close For each must make his way alone, The sculptor of his fate. Yes, we must go, for those behind Press on to take our place. We move, a never-ending line In life's eternal race. But as our paths divide and Wend Upon their various ways, We will be cheered by memories Of these, our high school days. CHARLEs JOYNER HISTUHY UP THE ELASS U17 1945 In the early part of September, 1939, a group of bewildered yet eager students gathered in the auditorium of Charles L. Coon High School for the first time. We were as an airplane being assembled. Our teachers and Mr. Zeb B. Vance, our principal, soon started putting the plane together. In the seventh grade the landing gear was built, and the foundation of our knowledge was laid. The twelfth grade was added and semester examinations were begun this year. Physical education was included in our curriculum for the first time. Thus ended the first shift on the production of our plane. As we entered the eighth grade we had a new principal, Mr. J. M, Hough, who has since been our faithful and trusty pilot. This year some of us were elected to the newly organized Honor Citizenship Club. Thus the plane of our education gained some new parts. In the fall of 1941 returning from our vacation, we worked hard to get the plane together. While in the ninth grade. we saw our country enter World War 11 on December 7, 1941. We were stunned at first, but soon we entered wholeheartedly in the various drives, reaching goals which we have maintained ever since. Thus our plane was well on its way. Our freshman year began with the organization of the Victory Corps which most of us joined. We assisted in the scrap and tin can drives of the city. We were exceedingly proud that year when our school led the entire state in buying War Bonds and Stamps for the purchase of army jeeps- twenty-four in number. Some of the girls served at the junior-senior prom. Yes, our plane was finished this year. but it needed some finishing touches and a test flight which it received in our junior year. ln 1944 we were juniors at last! We elected oflicers to direct the fliht. We planned the fifth annual carnival which was ruled over by Miss Merry Christmas and her escort. With the money which we made at the carnival, we sponsored a banquet and prom for our seniors. The test flight of our junior year was successful. and at last we were seniors, ready to receive our wings. This year our football team became the North Carolina champions. Sorrowfully we have watched some of our boys leave for the armed services, and to them we send our prayers for a safe return. Until now we have had as co-pilots of our planes, the faculty and our principal, Mr. Hough. They have guided our plane along a safe route. Now we are ready to solo, having Hnished the twelfth grade. We shall try forever to soar upward to attain the highest goals and ideals of life. 1'liSIOri.lI1SZ ELIZABETH LEACH, DAPHNE BATTS. AND DICK GREGORY.

CLASS SU SS tTune: Till Then. l Farewell, the hour of parting is here: Farewell, to all those we love so dear. To teachers who have always been true, We sav adieu. Farewell, our classmates we'll often miss, We'd like them to remember just this- We know that some day we'l1 meet again, So long-till then. When life seems too hard to understand. We'll think of our high school days. When time measures all its grains of sand. The time will be lost, but memory stays. Farewell, dear high school, we leave you soon, But memories of you, Charles L. Coon, Will in our hearts forevermore dwell, So long-farewell! fTune: Ill See You Againnj Farewell. Charles L. Coon: The hour of parting comes too soon. Thinking of these paSt few years May bring some tears. Now that we're parting. Farewell, teachers who I-lave done your best to help us through. Classmates too we'll ne'er forget So we have but one regret- That we must say with a sigh- Goodbye! Page Twenty-five CLASS PHUPHEEY To: Miss Elizabeth Leach June 2, 1963 High Altitude Hit-Zh SCh00l Wilson, North Carolina Mars, Rocket Route No. 17 United States Dear Lib: I was very glad to receive your rocket-mail letter inquiring about the members of our old graduating class. You surely were lucky to obtain that position of teaching English on Mars. Now it will only take you a few days to fly to see us, if you have the time. Incidently it was exactly eighteen years ago today that we graduated from dear old Charles L. Coon. Tonight some of our members' children will be graduating, Among them will be the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bobby Boswell, you remember Sally Haynes and Bobby: also the Ruffin twins, Edna and Bud. I saw in the paper yesterday that Charles Liggon and Harry Lamm, while cruising about in their new jet-propelled plane, accidently collided with Pete Bell who parked behind a cloud bank with Mag Creech. However, all escaped safely by sliding down the vacuum ray. Dorothy Pridgen, Hilda Williams. and Frances Langley are successful stenographers working for the Inter-Planetary Rocket Lines under the supervision of the well known test pilot, Ralph Gardner. I bought a lovely antique coffee table last week at the High-Price Furniture Store. It is owned by Ed High and Edgar Price. If you have the opportunity read the poetry book THE MORNING AFTER THE NIGHT BEFORE. It is this month's best seller in poetry and written by our old classmates, Albert Williams, George Saleeby. and Charles Joyner. They now own the VVilsa,ioy Publishing Company. I have just turned on our newest television set to see and hear Reba Baker, Thelma Davis, Margaret O'wens, and Jean Moore, as I promised them I would. They are making their first appearance at the Suspension Club tonight. I suppose you have heard about it: it is supposed to be suspended half way between Earth and Mars. We must try to visit it together some time. The proprietor is Dick Gregory. I haven't had the opportunity as yet to ask him how he got the club there. You would certainly be surprised to see how Lee Gliarmis's business has expanded. He still has that knack for making hot-dogs and ham sandwiches. He is featuring in his entertainment that beloved crooner of stage. screen, radio, and television, Bennette Flowers. Joe Newton and Roy Evans are now chauffeurs for the high officials, Julian Barker and Boisie Barnes, who are now working on the Commission For Disposing of International Fleas. The investiga- tion should progress rapidly with their working on it. Believe it or not Laurie Finch is still fiitting around. She seems to be having a hard time finding the one to settle down with. Dot Waters played her piano concert, The Lament of the Dying Love Bird, at the Atmospheric Music Hall last night. She was accompanied on the violincello by her great admirer, Romulus Markham. It was very highly acclaimed by the critics from THE BIG DIPPER DAILY, Jim Blount and Jack Gillette. Virginia Taylor, Ernestine Lucas, Pauline Dilda, Ruth Winbourne, and Blanche Driver are now conducting this new chemical farming experiment. They dissolve seeds of various vegetables in chemicals in huge concrete containers and are expecting, some century, to raise from these a plant bearing vege- table soup seeds. Earl Corrington and Horace Stott are cooperating with them by furnishing the concrete containers from their Hard-As-You-Like-It Concrete Plant. Glaucus Smiley is now the chief-of-police. He really enioys flying his faster than a speeding bullet rocket plane which, of course, gets to the victim before the bullet does. James Strickland and Will Warren have kept themselves buried in their special distilled glass labora- tory deep in the Grand Canyon, working on a formula for rubber that will replace our synthetic rubber. The Boy Scout Master, Morgan Sumner, is taking the troop on an over night hike to Jupiter. I think these short outings are very healthful for the boys. We have been led to understand that President Roosevelt's right-hand bookkeeper is Jesse Horne. He always did have a talent for bookkeeping. Edna Taylor. Mary Moskos, and Betsy Draughn have proved themselves very capable business women. They are the heads of the Mutual Bite Insurance Company, makers of Tireless Teething Rings of which you have no doubt heard. The three Lamm girls--Vera, Mildred, and Ruthehave bought a ranch in Minnesota and are now managing a lamh's wool farm. Rose Marie Parker and Ethel Pittman are co-producers of Parker-Pittman's Pickled Plums that Please the Palate and the Patron. Joe Anderson is president of the well known Lovesick-Aid Society which meets every blue moon at Troy Barnes's at Honeymoon Hovel, Lover's Lane. They publish high class love letters written by Paul Casanova Rausch. It is said they're so gooey that he doesn't have to use any glue on the envelopes. Mary Ellen Fulghum and Margaret Finch are opening a new office in Mars for their Whodunit Detective Agency. Their special operator. Loman Waller, has even found The Lost Chord and the Missing Link. The Go-Brokerage Company located on Wailing Wall Street is operated by Sam Barnes, whose office hours are from twelve to two with two hours off for lunch. I have in my kitchen now a frying pan made by the Ameal Celluloid Frying Pan Company. It was invented and the business established by Daphne Batts. Betsy Dempsey is now starring in the current'hit Mrs. Noodle. It is being produced by Wesley Ives, the noodles-that-don't-slip king. Randolph Webb operates the Seeing's Believing line of theaters: Jeanette Norton and Bobbie Owens work in his theater here. They are the girls who turn the switch that pushes the button that turns the wheels that start the escalators moving. This new horsefiy hospital has a specialist there who is our own Doris Phillips. I know you remember those members of our class who graduated the summer before us in summer school. Charles Boyette is now the head x-ray specialist at the If You Swallowed It, We'll Find If Foundation. Banks Mebane, who is now the well known international spook-story writer, has confessed that he gets his ideas from his great aunt's stepfather's fifth cousin's daughter, who comes back from the grave just to aid him. Jack Kirkland, Robert Drake, Alton Batts. and Mac Gold are rising rapidly as comedians over television since they joined the Bob Hopeian Club and received instructions. The Webb girls, Ida Ruth and Meriem. are working in a television set factory. They make the bolts that fasten the whatcha-ma-callit to the doodleum-whacky. Of course you understand what it is. Frank McKeel and J. L. White now own the If You Get It Back You're Lucky Laundry and an odd fact is that Kirby Owens and Clarence Winstead run the Buy Your Clothes Back Department Store, which is located right next door to the laundry. Bobby Daniel and Jean Riley are manufacturing cobweb wire on Jupiter. They want to find out exactly how much it will take of it to go around the universe. Randall de Keyzer and Randolph Whitley have invented a sea plow and are now doing deep-sea farming. This covers all the members of our class. I hope it is the information you wished to have. I have enjoyed hearing from you. Write again soon. Always your friend, DONNA HORTON Prophets: Edward High, Jim Blount, and Donna Horton.

We understand that the school is a training agency for citizenship in a democracy and that gainful employment is a necessary factor in good citizenship. With this principle in mind, the Diversified Occupations class was made a part of our high school program some Five years ago. The Diversified Occupations class gives its members an opportunity to get training on the job. They learn by study and experience. Although this year's class is small because the armed services have claimed many who would have otherwise been here, we have endeavored to maintain the high stanrlartls set by our predecessors.

Page Fifty-three - v fa a 7 Mi FUUTB LL 1044 was a glorious year in the football history of Charles L. Coon High Schoolkthe Cyclones marched to their first slate crown. The triumphant year was due mainly to the great leadership of Coaches Leon Brogden and Roy Gatchell. but the will to win. the spirit to play. and the love of the game were the factors of the team's great success. The Cycs' squad in every position was a well experienced team, It boasted a forward wall averaging 190 pounds and a backfield averaging l6O pounds. At the ends were Jim Blount and Archie Webb. At tackles were 209-pound Billy Beamon and ZOOfpound Bennette Flowers, the teams punter and place-kicker. The guards were co-captains Ned Liggon and Julian Barker and at center was Bobby Hackney. In the backfield was AllfState Jack Gillette. fullback, who scored a total of l56 points for the season. At the halfbacks were Troy Barnes. voted most valuable player by his teammates. and Clyde Sullivan and Dick Hackney shared the duties at the other half. The quarterback position was ably filled by Jay Clark and Tunney Brooks. This hard hitting backheld and powerful line was all that it took for a state championship squad. The Cycs won eleven out of twelve games and scored a total of 375 points to their opponents 75. There only defeat came at the hands of Ciranby High of Norfolk who downed the high riding Wilson boys 32 to 6 in an afternoon game at Foreman Field in Norfolk. In the game with Rocky Mount. the Eastern Championship Game. the Cycs were trailing 12-0 until midway of the third quarter when the Wilson team showed their superiority by coming from behind to win 13 to lZ. In the state championship game. played in Wilson. the Cyclones held Greensboro to six hrst downs. three on penalties. Wilson won the game Z6 to 0 without the Whirlwinds giving Wilson a serious threat. This wound up the season and the Cyclones disbanded. a victorious team. Eight boys off the first string graduated and four off the second string. Next year Coaches Leon Brogden and Roy Ciatchell will have to mold a new team, The three remaining regulars will be Clyde Sullivan. Archie Webb. and Bob Hackney. Some great strength was left on the reserves and the Junior Team was very powerful also this year. These up and coming boys will be big guns on the team of '-l5 and great things are expected of them. These were just a few of the highlights of this highly successful season and here's hoping for another year like this one.

Our baseball team opened its season with Goldsboro, the first conference game, and coasted to nine straight con- ference VlCt0L'l6S, overwhelming all of their opponents by large scores. Their only defeat came at the hands of the Durham Bulldogs in the last regular scheduled game of the year when the Bulldogs turned the tide on the Cyclones by down- ing them 5 to 4. In the Championship game with Winston-Salem, played there. the Cyclones, behind the three-hit pitching of Big A 95 Opponents Z3 Bennette Flowers, took the game in stride and won 5 to 1. When challenged by Maury High of Norfolk to play for the North Carolina-Virginia State Crown the Cyclones ac- cepted and won for the second straight year by defeating Maury 7 to 1. Bennette Flowers won eleven out of twelve games for the Cyclones, but Flowers was backed with some powerful hitters. There was Jay Clark who averaged .367, Herman Vick .365, Connie Beland 3354, Tunney Brooks .333. Troy Barnes, Captain Hubert Holley, Robert Drake, Billy Beamon, and Bud Ruffin also handed in some powerful hitting. This well rounded team was also a co-operative one on defense. This defense, combined with excellent hitting and pitching, was all that was needed in producing a championship squad.
