Class History Last year when we met for our first year together there were thirty-two of us. Along our way, seeking more education and hoping to find a job which we thought would be suitable, we Jost many of our fellow classmates. Some of them went into different branches of the service, others found things to do which they thought would be more profitable. Howard Baker, Bob Bowman and Louis Lang volunteered for service in the Navy during their junior year. Bernice Berry transferred to Farmville High School and Beulah Moore transferred to Danville High School. Helen Parker, Benjamin Smith, Harry Berger and Allen Wagner said farewell to us, as they entered other fields of endeavor. Doris Wilmer, one of us, married a senior boy of last year, Clyde Ca'houn, at the end of her juntor year. We hated to lose these members of our Class. The faithful twenty-one left, worked hard and finished the junior year. Even though the going had been difficult, we had had many happy experiences. Some of the things which stand out in our minds are: The Junior-Senior party in 1945, when we entertained the seniors with a picnic supper, games and dancing at the log cabin and Jerry Boggs, Ruth Walker, Dot Carter, Billy Whitter, Sam Thompson and Earl Spillman, members of our class, taking part in the Dramatic Club play which was given in April 1945. When we came back in September for our senior year, we found that we had gained one new member, Andrew Danby, who played the lead in the Dramatic Club play of '45. Roosevelt Ashburn left us in October to help his father with his farm work. This left twenty-one members. Many of our members took part in various school activities. Eldridge Sanderson, Billy Whitter, Andrew Danby, Earl Spillman, and Marion Meadcr made the first team in Basketball this year. Page Burnette, Dot Carter, Jerry Boggs, Marion Meador, Sam Thompson, and Earl Spillman took parts in the Dramatic Club play of this year. One of the most enjoyable events of the year was the party the Juniors gave us in March. As our graduation draws near we regret having to leave the friends which we have made during our two years at Cumberland High School. Many of us plan to continue our educat ion in college or in business schools. Some will enter business. Four of our members, Eldridge, Billy, John and Earl have received an invitation from Uncle Sam, expressing his urgent need for their good com- pany. As they go our best wishes go with them. In behalf of the senior class, I wish to say that we have enjoyed our two years here at Cumberland High School. Our only regret is that we could not have been together longer. Our stay here has been both pleasant and profitable, and we most sincerely appreciate the diligence with which the teachers have worked in preparing us for that which is to follow.
