Donelson High School - Crest Yearbook (Nashville, TN)

Text from Pages 1 - 54 of the 1945 volume:

LQQQLUQVQD As years roll by and memories grow dearer, may this annual serve as a reminder of our glorious school days together. In later years as you turn these pages, if you can recapture the spirit of friendliness and youth that pervades the campus, if you can recall with a chuckle the jaunts and your capers and those of your fellow students, if you can live again your days at Donelson High, this book will have fulfilled its aim.

All is old in the musty, dusty air, And mem'ries come at sight of things that are there- Dim. familiar faces of real people, And a song that resounds from tower to steeple, The gentle, spring song of a happy day, The song of our youth, carefree and gay. Thus passes the panorama of years That we love, when our thoughts cheer Our dreams and we always sing Of what we did and everything Hle planned-our hopes and dreams. One comes trueg another seems Forever a dream. But above all those lVe have our friendship which goes lllherever we go-of that we sing, Above all friendship is the noblest thing. X'Ve may not meet for years on end, But each lives in the memory of a friend. Friendship, a thing so strong It ever soars above the throng In war or peace, in time of strife On battlefields, in all walks of life. And though we all are far apart, YVe are together in each heart. KENT S'rocKELL, Class Poet PRAYER FOR THE CLASS OF '45 Help us, great and gracious Lord, now that we are about to test untried wings. Guide us lest we stumble. Lead us when we falter. Open our eyes to a brighter world, and bring to our hearts a clearer understanding. Teach us to love our fellow men. Teach us kindness, loyalty, truth, unselfishness, and a steadfast devotion to tried and L1'1lC ways. Grant us, Lord, though separate ways we walk, a heartfelt gratitude for teach- ers and classmates such as these. Grant Thy richest blessings on each of us as we leave. Vle have no great contribution to offer those who follow us, but may they find the well-trod road of friendship and happiness that we have walked in our golden hours at Donelson High School. Help us to know when life is through, That we have filled a needed post: And here and there we've paid our fare, XVith more than idle talk or boast. Amen.

M'e gazed about with a feeling of gratitude, for we realized that we were treading the grounds of the best school of its kind. ive were an unu- sually bright group: so there were not many re- marks about green freshmen. Being a large class, we were divided, Miss Hamhlen sponsoring one group and Miss Stroud the other. That year we elected Mary Katherine Hooberry as our president. Bettye Sue Cloyd and Tommy Ward were cheer- leaders. One thing saddened us during our first year. WVe gathered in the auditorium on December 8, 1941, to hear that our nation had entered Xvorld YVar lI. Since then our class has lost many of its members to the Armed Forces. Summer flew by, and we again gathered at D. H. S. to he classified as sophomores, a little older per- haps, but the seniors said just a brighter shade of green. This year only forty-four came back to grace the halls of learning. Dickie Fifield was elected president, while Bettye Sue Cloyd and Ben Krise were our cheerleaders. Miss Hamblen, who was our sponsor for the Hrst half of the year, left us to get her MRS degree, and Mrs. Swift kindly took over to see us through the rest of the year. The fall of 1943 found thirty-seven students launching into their junior year at the school on the hill. By this time many of our number were taking their places in the ranks of those serving our country. They have delayed their own educa- tion so that we, who are still here at Donelson, may have the opportunities that they are denying themselves. The junior class elected Miles Ezell, lr.. president. Our cheerleaders were Geraldine Rader and Bettye Sue Cloyd. Outstanding events of the year were the junior-senior party and the play, A Connecticut Yankee at King Arthur's Court, in which many of both the junior and senior classes took part. The juniors were also called upon to assist in the graduation exercises, which gave us a slight forecast of what to expect the following year. Thirty-six brave. industrious, loyal seniors struga gled to the final stages of secondary education. Of this group, only nine of our boys remain, and the girls, who far outnumber them, are holding their breath these last five weeks in the hope that we will not be the Hrst all-girl class ever to graduate from D. H. S. WVe again elected Miles Ezell, jr.. as our president. Florene Ward, Eva Robertson, Geraldine Rader, Margaret Ann Adsmond, and Bettye Sue Cloyd are the senior cheerleaders. We felt honored to have two of our girls, Bettye Cloytl and Geraldine Rader, elected All-City in basketball this season. As we near the close of the final chapter, we can- not begin to tell you the love we have for Donelson High and for each other. Remembering some of the best days of our life here, we leave with high ideals and much ambition, prepared for whatever the future may hold. Though we may be scat- tered to the four winds of the earth, we shall ever be a beloved group in memory and hope in our hearts to meet again. LESLIE ANNE DABBS, Class Historian i E ll!

So full of nragic is this power that I find myself in a daze, arousing finally into the world of 1955. May 28, 1955, the date of our longed-for reunion. Because of its being our old home town, we decided to disregard the fact that Donelson is the most crowded metropolis in the world and go on and have our reunion. The only two now left in the home town are Ruth Peek, who has made Donelson the center of the world with her spectacular drug store, and Bettye Cloyd, now the famous coach of the world champs, the Donelson Dons. Hollywood still happens to be the center of the silver screen, and there we find Vicki Laine, alias Leslie Anne Dabbs, a famous Wright's beauty, who is now making a picture with our Tom Ward, the romantic flyer, who has American, European, and Australian women clamoring for a glimpse of him. Incidentally, that Wright is notre other than john Wright, who now makes a profession out of find- irrg beautiful women! At Berry Field, stepping off the China Clipper, is Hollie Sharpe, who left Mrs. Roosevelt stranded in China without her right-hand secretary. With him are May Bell Davis and Otelia Henley, who are secretaries to thc Secretary of State and the Secretary of the Treasury, respectively. But wait! Who is the Secretary of the Treasury, who steps into a volley of flash bulbs? It is none other than Margaret Ann Adsmond, the first woman to hold that important office. fStill handling money, I see.j I looked up just in time to see jo Ann Criswell's private plane, which she pilots herself, come in for a beautiful landing. jo is the golden-haired, gold- en-voiced star of Universal Opera, a world traveling opera company, taking the place of Metropolitan. Accompanying her is Dot Bradley, her publicity agent, who in private life is the wife of the famous comedian, Harold Wlright. I met the old-fashioned steamboat that comes up the Mississippi into the Cumberland from South America at Pier 25, where Mr. and Mrs. Miles Ezell, jr., have just arrived. She is the former Geraldine Rader fsurpriselj, who has helped Miles tremendously in his dairy business in the rich bot- tom lands of Buenos Aires. Joy Flowers and Kay Gragg, both married now, have come to the reunion without their husbands because they weren't members of the class of '45. Both have done quite well with their singing both in radio and in television, but devote most of their time to their homes. Billy Charlton and Elmer Brewer, I learned, have formed a partnership, building modern glass homes. on which they have made a small fortune. Corning in from Australia is Arinva Cross. who, disgusted with men after all these years, is running a dude ranch for divorcees. With her are Florerre Ward and Frances Coville, who, with their hus- bands. run a sheep ranch that furnishes raw ma- terial for Sam Rehorn's factory, Wooly Goods, Inc. Along with Sam comes Margaret Hawkins. his famous designer, who actually works now. At the Union Station in Donelson, I, along with four bands and the city council, headed by Herbert Miller, who is the mayor of near-by Hermitage, came to meet the two returning heroes of the Hermitage Hermits pro football team, Aaron Hood and Leon Creech, who are world All-Stars. With them are Eva Robertson and jean Martin, their wives, and also the head coaches of the team. Olyne Waddell is manager of the Modern Plaza. a famous hotel in Paris, France. She came over on the Atlantic Steamer with Mattie jo Stout, who is a missionary in Egypt. Jewell Hust, who now with her husband makes her borne in South Russia on one of the largest poultry ranches in the world. canre along too. Kent Stockell. world-renowned poet. who is now making a tour of the world, carne in at the last rninrrte on the Flash Flagship, which makes the trip around the world in forty-six hours, Its de- signer is also on board, and who would it be but that master mechanic, Lyle XVatsonl Everybody is here now, and the party is a rare one.

CLASS HISTORY In September, 19-42, a group of scared young greenhorns timidly gathered on the campus of Donelson High School. Immediately we were in- ducted into various classes and into a few of the activities of the school. As freshmen, we elected Buster Jennings our class president. Although we became discouraged at times, the end of the year found us looking forward to vacation with all the joy of a task well done. We marched into the next school year enthusias' tically. We viewed with an amused eye the new recruits and felt vastly superior. 'l'he year raced hy. Every day meant more knowledge, more activ- ities, and more friends. Vernon Allen was our president during the sophomore year. As juniors, through the leadership and example of Frank Newman and our other capable officers, we have participated in all the athletics and most of the other activities of our school. The juniors came to the fore in presenting the winning one-act play to represent Donelson in the forensic meet. We have been especially active in forensic work, having won honors in the oratorical contests. At present. we are hard at work on debates. Next year we are looking forward to new worlds to con- quer and anticipate our most successful year.

During this year the unit has met on Tuesday evenings for ground school classes in aeronautics. In addition to nllcring the students thorough beginning courses in aeronautics, another principal objective of the Cl. .-X. P. is to interest and familiarize American youth in aviation. The interest of our unit has run to the nth degree on those occasions when we have partici- pated in airport activities and in orientation flights. WHLHIES 500 When Coach Thompson and his boys reported for practice last fall, there was much discussion as to what caliber this team would be, for graduation had left few of last season's regulars. As the sea! son progressed, however. this doubt was removed. and the gridders had a very successful year. They won tive games and lost four, falling only to highly' rated teams. The Dons, led by Captain Aaron Hood and Al- ternate Captain john Wright, had a wellrbalanced team. Mcfllendon, a crack pass receiver, and New- man, a fine defensive man, handled the end posi- tions well. Forming an almost invincible wall were at tackles SALL hard-hitting Leon Creech and versatile Tommy Wardg at guards, little but mighty Chesty Hood and fast-charging john lVrightg and at center Miles lizell, a very dependable and steady player. All these boys were seniors and can rest assured that their high school careers in football were successes. In the backiield, which is composed of inex- perienced boys, were Bobby Cross, the shifty little tailbackg high-scoring Sam Love, the driving full- backg Donald Malone, a dependable blocking backg and Slick Lovelace, a speedy wing back. At the end of the season, seventeen letters were awarded at a banquet given for the boys and the cheerleaders.
