Jeb f a, Thomas Huddleston, D. S. Grindstaff, Edwin Davis, and Benny Bales. In our freshman year, we lost only one classmate, Sadie Marion. A%s sophomores, we welcomed Shirley Dunn, Sarah Newton, Jim Owen- by, and Robert Parkerson to our class, Those who left during or at the end of this year were Annie Cutright, Dallys Cooke, Lorena Morris, Charles Marion, Clifton Garris, Robert Parkerson, and Melvin Befry. Jean Duncan and Max Latham dropped out after completing the junior year, All of us have been active participants in many extra-curricu- lar activities, Willie Duncan, Jim Owenby, and Robert Oertel have been outstanding in both baseball and basketball. Shirley Pembelton, Shirley Dunn, and Kathryn Guinn have been outstanding members of the girls' basketball team, Penny Baber handles the important job of annual editor, and Shirley Pembelton has the same position on the newspaper staff. These are, of course, only a few activities in which our class has taken a leading part. When we think about our life here at C,H. S,, many happy memories come to us. Gay laughter and warm greetings welcomed us each fall as we returned to school from summer vacations. Our beau- tiful Christmas pageants, filled with the dearly-loved Christmas car- ols heralding the birthday of our Savior, were events which will al- ways be remembered fondly by us. Who could ever forget the excit- ing last days before a Dramatic Club play! Will we ever cease hear- ing the crack of a baseball bat that meant that spring was here and the young men's fancy had turned to Play ball ? Among our fondest memories will be that of the picnic given for us by the junior class. And now at the very end of our school career, we are experi- encing with pride and joy--and a little sadness, too--our class day excercises, our baccalaureate sermon, and our graduation rites, Yes, we will soon be saying farewell to our high school days. We shall certainly miss all our friends whom we will leave behind, but we sincerely hope that your remaining years at Cumberland High will prove rewarding in both knowledge and fellowship. Most of all, we shall miss our fine principal and teachers, who have been helpful friends as well as instructors, Although we are leaving Cumberland High School, we shall always remember it as the place where we spent many of the happiest times of our lives. We shall always recall it fondly as our Alma Mater, MARY ANN ROBERTSON Class Historian aoa Happiest Earline Hatcher 13 Neatest Biggest Flirt Mary Ann George Most School Spirited Robert Oertel Lucille Ferguson Most Carefree Penny Baber ‘ bi = Wittiest Joe Reed Best Personality Shirley Pembelton Quietest Minnie Thompson Most Versatile “ Carolyn Stonnell ao
