Class hlston After completing elementary grades, be ing rather proud of what we had accomplished, we were looking for more success as we entered our FRESHMAN year of school in 1959 to become the graduates of 1963. We were eager to settle down and prepare ours e lve s to step out into the world of today. Mr. Grover Brown was our homeroom teacher. There were thirty-four on roll, 19 girls and 15 boys. The clas s officers for that year were: Gary Renegar, Pr e sid e nt, jack Lunsford, Vice-President, Shirley Groce, Secretary, Mickey Baity, Treasurer, and Linda Mize, Reporter.

In the spring, our class toured R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company and later enjoyed ourselves at Tanglewood Park, and Reynolds Park, of which, I'm sure all of us have very pleasant memories.

Our class officers were: Ola Mae Groce, President, Jackie Steelman, Vice-President, Mary Grace Shore, Secretary, and Bobby Maynard, Treasurer. We were happy to have Joe Bullard enter into our midst.

Our h om e room teacher for our Senior year was Miss Catherine Anthony. In the be ginning, time was fi lle d with the election of officers: Mickey Baity, President, Gary Renegar, Vice-President, Bobby Maynard, Treasurer, and Anna Hoots, Secretary. One of the most talked about things of the year was our class rings, but the most enjoyed events of our high school days, were the lovely banquet the Juniors gave us and our long awaited trip to Washington, D. C. and New York. That is one week that none of us willever forget.

We are grateful for the privilege of attending this school and obtaining a high school education. We are thankful for the guidance and encouragement of our Principal, Mr. Matthews, through our high school years. Our parents and teachers also played a leading part in the success of our education. As we receive our diploma, and each goes his own way into the life that lies before us, may we ever remember our high school days, but look forward, too, for the brighter days of tomorrow.
