THE HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS OF '47 Gathering at Dillard Landing Field, Goldsboro, N. C. in the county of 8th grade, early in September in the year of 1942, coming from all sections of town eager to board the plane of High School Education were the members of the senior class of 1947. Forty-five were present that day, but only thirty-two were allowed to board the plane. After looking over the list of passengers the Pilot found that thirteen students, and most of them boys were not ready to board the plane because of deficiencies in English. With this sadness and happiness thirty-one girls and one boy boarded the plane which soon landed in the city of 9B, giving the passengers their first bit of High School experience with Mrs. E. N. Young as Pilot. After five months of traveling came the city of 9A where the Pilot was changed. Mrs. E. A. House took over the wheel giving all aboard guides to fol- low. Some were interested in the commercial sights and others in Science and Teaching sceneries. After a year of interesting sights the plane landed in the city of Sophomores. With Miss M. B. Belle as Pilot, steering the course of thirty-two Sophomores. All of the passengers learned to love Miss Belle, for she was truly a lovable person. So far the flying weather had been good except for a few cloudy nights and days. Traveling for a year and a half had been fun even when there had been fear of storms but all had confidence in Miss Belle and she landed them safely in Junior town full of spirit. There, Mr. E. A. House, husband of the second Pilot, took charge of the plane. The group determined to make the trip a pleasant one since there was much talent aboard, decided upon a Junior Play given for their enjoyment. Ramona , a dramatization by Helen Hunt Jackson, was chosen. With characters selected, practices got underway. The going was tough at first, but in the end, the play was a big success. By this time the passengers had traveled three years going by route of His- tory, English, Mathematics, Science, Typing, Shorthand, Bricklaying and many other cities. Just as the passengers were about to leave Junior Town, a telegram came ask- ing them to wait for an on-coming plane that carried passengers who had re- covered from English injuries, and were ready to rejoin the other passengers on the plane they jumped with joy for they were to be with friends again. Along with some of the old passengers came new ones, Veterans from the U. S. Army and Navy. Reaching Senior Town with forty-five passengers, the original number, a new Pilot had to be secured. This Pilot, Mrs. M. W. Carney, was an old friend of most of the passengers for they had met her in the city of English. It didn't take the passengers long to really love her and become more than devoted to her. Hoping this would be their last Pilot before reaching the Field of Graduation, all journeyed on. This was not to be true though, for soon Mrs. Carney took ill suddenly and trod the road all must trod, the road of Death. This death was heartbreaking to all, but the trip had to be finished, so Mrs. Alma Minnis took over the wheel, making six different Pilots in the course of a four year trip. The spirits of the passengers are still high because just ahead in sight of all forty-five lies the state of Graduation. If all goes well it will be reached the 5th of June 1947. Clarise L.
