This year Jackie McMillian, Glen Cook, Alvin Crawford, and Dyer Clayton received school jackets together with Geraldine and Feraldine Vanlandingham, Jean Pool, and Winona Elliott. We presented our first play this year entitled, WI ll Explain Everythingny sponsored by Mr,'Ely. 'It was a great success. With the proceeds from this and other activities, the Junior and Senior classes took a trip to Galveston in 1941, all having a grand time. 'SENI0RSMWhoa!!! We have finally reached our goal with a minimum of hard work. A We presented our play in December, 1941, entitled WThe Fiotitious MothergIn-Lawn sponsored by Mr. Stinebaugh. 'There are twenty-four seniors who will graduate in May, only three of whom began together: Anna Sa Lee Brown, Winona Elliott, and Glen:Cookl To finish the school year, the class plans to take a trip in the latter part of May.
