In September of 1939, forty-nine of us enrolled as Fresh- men as practically all classes do. Miss Morrow's English I caused a few of us to fall by the wayside, and some had gone down in Mrk Irvin's algebra, For Freshmen we werenft so bad either, We had an excellent base ball team and a fair Junior High basketball team, Along came December and we were enters tained by our sponsor, Mr, Hutchinson, with a Christmas party, Fall of '40 came, and forty enrolled as sophomores, Some had moved away, but these were counter balanced-by new students We elected officers again, including a treasurer who had lite ' tle to do, and a vice president who had even less, Our advancef ment hadn't helped our dignity much, About'3OZ still came to meetings in a storm, The Sophomores took the highest honors in the season's activities, by electing Mary Jo Baxter as Football Queen and Truett Moseley and Mary Louise Cox as king and queen of the Carnival, Mr, Heflin was selected as Sophomore sponsor and took the tedious task of keeping our business straight, There were thirty nine of us as Juniorsg Our ranks were thinned by geometry, some lingered over history another'nine months and some wandered off never to return, We gave our treasurer more to do then, We presented.WThe Meddlesome Maidn. and uncovered a lot of talent and some cash, The Junior Senior Banquet was a huge success, The color scheme was that of the rainbow, and candles furnished light, Then spring came and we were Seniors, August, '42, found us Seniors, and although our ranks have been thinned to about twenty nine, we have an excellent baskets ball temn, In the fall of 542 the Seniors were again in the spotlight when our class won by a great majority over the Sophw omores when our king, Don Noble, crowned the Senior queen, Velma Moseley, Our Senior play, Aunt Tillie Goes To Town, made more money than our Junior play, To sum it up, we've.been a pretty nClassieH class., Anyway, wetve had fun.
