JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Max Bryant $ -i Sidney Bridgforth Marlene Bryant Nancy Anderson Barbara Benedict Bobby Cassada Evelyn Chumney In the fall of 1942 the atom bomb had not been perfected, and the hydrogen bomb was not off the drawing boards. But an even greater catastrophe had befallen Crewe School. The class of 1953 entered the first grade. As we pushed through the second, and so on to the seventh we will never forget the kind assistance and co-operation our teachers gave us. Reading, ' Riting, and ' Rithmetic were taught us thoroughly although some of us may have forgotten a few parts of it. In 1949 we planned to make our usual invasion of High School but our offense was considerably hampered by the arrival of a new principal. Our teachers Mrs. Yates and Miss Coleman withstood our attack admirably and even succeeded in turning some of our energy into more constructive channels.

She took over the task of training our errant behavior as Miss Coleman felt she lacked courage to face us another year. Now as we start on our third year as Juniors we start with our fourth teacher, Mrs. Cheatham. During the short time we have been in school this year our classmates have occupied most of the positions on the football team and the clubs we have here in school. We have had our magazine sales campaign and have raised the money for our Banquet and Dance. The Junior play was presented on December 14, 1951 at the Crewe High Auditorium. The Junior and Senior classes traveled to Victoria this year where the annual Career Day was held. Manyrepresentatives were there from many colleges as well as the Armed Forces, and we all feel sure that these contacts helped us greatly in planning our vocations. During the rest of this year and all of the next we will try to uphold our school and prepare ourselves for college or any work which we plan to do.
