mtm ABOVE, LEFT TO RIGHT BETTY CULLITON SCOTTY FRANKEN JERRY FULLER WALTER HUNDLEY BETTY JO NEWCOMB this year rather than to finish last year; and two post-graduates. Before the second six weeks had ended, another transferred from Richmond bringing the total enrollment to the fourteen shown on these two pages. A history of such a class would be most difficult, for it would of necessity be fourteen histories. Even though the class is small, it has participated in the same social functions and extra-curricular activities as it would have had it been a larger, continuous class. In 1954, as Juniors, these students were the guests, rather than the hosts, at the Junior-Senior banquet and dance. Again this year, they will be the guests—a small compensation for their small number. The traditional commence- mentactivities are scheduled, even though the class is small. The activities in which these students have participated, along with the schools at¬ tended are listed on the following page.

This action meant that the following September, those students who would have gone into high school went into an eighth grade in¬ stead, leaving no regular Freshman class in 1951-52. Normally then, there would have been no Class of ' 55. By the time The 1953 Railroader came off the press, there were nine listed as Sopho¬ mores. This was due to transfers from other schools and irregularities in credits due to ab¬ sences, dropouts, etc. The 1954 annual again lists nine members in the Class of ' 55, though not the same nine persons enrol led the previous year—again because of transfers. In the autumn of 1954, there were eight of these, plus one who entered late last year, enrolled as Seniors; two who chose to return Page 12 Sponsored by CRITTENDEN ' S DRUG STORE
