Tommie Jenkins Bobby Bradshaw Peggy Schutt ae Pe In sagen 1957, the doorways of Crewe High School swung open to a bustling group of 89 eighth graders (58 from Crewe and 31 from Burkeville.) We started off by electing Joe May as our president and Carolyn Widgins to represent us in Homecoming Court. Contrary to tradition, our midget football team, composed of Donald Afflerbach, Swan Boswell, Bobby Bradshaw, Buck Cochran, Danny Elliot, Steve Rice, Bootsie Staples, and Bucky Saunders, was defeated for the first time in a number of years. Even so, the cheerleaders--Norma Clements, Anne Dixon, Charlotte Dobbins, Virginia Drinkwater, Kay Johnson, Sunny Robertson, Shirley Schmidt, Peggy Schutt, and Barbara Vanarsdall--as well as the rest of the class, were proud of them. We chose Joe Jenkins and Norma Clements to represent us in the Valentine Court. Feeling very grown-up, we reached our Freshman year with a class of 92. Billy Boswell led us that year, and our Homecoming representative was Jane Nunnally. Homecoming was made especially exciting because our float won first place. Only three members of our class--Bobby Bradshaw, Joe May, and Bucky Saunders--played in varsity sports. Anne Dixon was a varsity cheerleader. Dale Scott and Bucky Saunders represented us on Valentine's Day. As a body of 89 Sophomores, we let the upper classmen know we were around by joining clubs and participating in varsity sports. In 1959-60, Billy Boswell, Swan Boswell, Bootsie Staples, Bucky Saunders, Charlotte Dobbins, Patsy Wilson, and Susan Robertson played for the varsities.

Virginia Drink- water, Sunny Robertson, and Carolyn Widgins represented us at Homecoming. This year Shirley Schmidt and Bessie Williamson with their escorts, Bobby Bradshaw and Tommie Jenkins, represented the class in the Valentine Court. The doorway to the Junior Class opened to only 65 students. We elected Tommie Jenkins as our presi- dent; our Homecoming representatives were Mary Hale, Mary Newcomb, Lou Ann Schenck and Shirley Schmidt. Several from our class were elected of- ficers in the various clubs and organizations, and Carolyn Widgins was elected the third varsity cheer- leader. As Juniors, we have many exciting things to look forwardto. Already we have proved ourselves in beating all previous magazine-selling records at Crewe High by selling $2,200 worth of magazines. Tommie Jenkins was high salesman with $170; and close behind were Billy Gregory, Sally Tod Pottage, Virginia Drinkwater, and Bobby Bradshaw. Tommie received a trophy and a watch (it fell apart after ten days!). Inthe drawings, Bucky Saunders won $10 and Sally Tod Pottage won a skunk (it was stuffed.) The proceeds from the magazine sale will be used for the Junior-Senior banquet and dance. We, the Class of '62, are looking forward to having another prosperous year in Crewe High School before we walk through the doorway into college and to our life's work.
