VVe, the members of that class, pause here at the end of a perfect day to cast a backward glance over the past four years. It is surprising to find that, now that we are ac- tually being graduated, we have not the complete sense of relief that we expected, but, instead, a mingled feeling of reluctance and sadness at departureg and even though we have reached the long-dreamed-of day which has been our goal since first we gathered here, we shall never cast aside the memories of dear experiences and friends. How we have changed, and how many things have hap- pened to us since that eventful day in September, 194-1!!! Of the Hfty-two bewildered freshmen who assembled at Donelson High School, so eager to begin their journey to higher education, only forty remain to graduate. These are hardly recognizable, having passed through a com- plete metamorphosis-from green freshmen to sophisti- cated sophomoresg from jolly juniors to serious seniors. Through all the changing scenes we have been ably guided by several sponsors: Miss Mason, of course, who has been our stand-by throughout the four years, -and quite a procession of others, including Mrs. Swift, Miss Mansheld, Mr. Cass, and Mr. Whitefield. Our class ollicers have helped, also, in directing us toward our goal. When we were freshmen, William Nichols was our class president, but when he left us, we elected Tommy Cloyd, who proved to be such a capable leader that we have kept him on the job ever since. Tommy Cloyd, Billy Spann, and Bobby Baker have been the vice-presidents of the classg Jeanette Pingston, Joyce Nipp, and Jean Summers, the secretariesg Mary Elizabeth Ellis and Joyce Nipp, the treasurers. Yes, we have felt the need for sergeants-at-arms, too, and have been well served by Billy Spann and Johnnie Pickett. In looking back over the four years of our high school career, we are glad to see a few worthy accomplishments on our record. VVe have been well represented in sports. Billy Spann, Tommy Cloyd, and Bill Ezell have played football all four years, Billy Spann making All-City this year. Bill Ezell has four years of basketball to his credit af ill fill P and Tommy Cloyd three. Betty Sue Anderson has been on the basketball team every year, and this time made All-City and All-Tournament Qin District, Unit, and Re- gionalj. She was also voted the most valuable player in the Regional. Another important contribution we have made to sports is R. C. Flowers, who has held a place on the cheering squad ever since he was a freshman. Not only in the field of athletics have we made our mark. Norman Hust and Edward Smith have worked hard in the Future Farmers for four years and have won several trips during this time. Peggy Neal, Irene Peek, and Mamie York have participated in the activities of the Home Economics Club throughout their four years, Peggy has also been a 4-H Club member. Mary Ann Edwards has been a member of the Forensic Club for four years and a member of the N. F. L. for two years. Many honors have attested to her dramatic ability. As a class we have presented some interesting plays. Remember Gallopin' Grandma P We will never forget Here Comes Charlie, with Tommy's skilled manipula- tion of that tea wagon! Our activities as seniors have been as varied and ab- sorbing as everyone told us they would. VVe have estab- lished at Donelson High a chapter of the Beta Club, have published our edition of THE CREST, presented a one-act play Q The Opening of a Door J and a three-act comedy C l lie Mummy and the Mumpsnj. Now as we prepare to write Finis to our high school days, we see much that we would like to do over, many improvements we could have made. However, since we cannot turn back to retrieve our mistakes, we look for- ward with a high resolve for greater achievement in the future. Thus while the sun .sinks down. to rest, Fa-r in the 'regions of the west, I A lingering light he fondly throws On the dear hills zvlmrc first he rose. JOHNNIE MAE BONER l ?

I f, XX W S Qx 1 ,X 1 M af xg I X ff It was a lovely spring morning of that eventful year 1948. I was wandering rather aimlessly through the woods when I heard a brisk hammering. 5 It suddenly ceased, and wondering what made the rapping stop, I walked quietly toward the tree whence the noise came. There, motionless, clinging to the bark, with his neck outstretched and his eyes shaded by one wing, was a red-headed woodpecker. He was peering intently through a big knothole. In a moment his bill dropped open in astonishment, and the red feathers on his head positively stood on end. I said to myself, Wonder what he sees of interest up there? To my surprise, he turned to me abruptly, and I saw that his eyes nearly popped out of his head. What do I see? he chirped excitedly. Why, woman, I see the 1948 Senior Class of Donelson High School as they will be ten years from now!! He turned back to the hole eagerly and peered into it again. Why, there is Mary Ann Edwards, now a famed actress of stage and screen, on the stage of the Palace Theater in Denver. Now a circus comes into view! Upon the high wire doing her act is Ann Wasson, who has mas- tered the art of yo-yoing while walking a wire one hundred feet in the air. She and the dare-devil motorcycle rider, Ben Hurt, are the main attractions of the Peek and Peek Circus, owned by Irene and Georgia Lee. A large metropolis appears. It is Donelson, the second largest city in the world. R. C. Flowers owns the Flowers Electrical Appliance Store now and has a thriving business. Jean Summers, whose husband is now the manager of the Donelson Theater, is entertaining a guest from New York. It is none other than Georgia Waddell, who has designed the costumes for many Broadway hits. There is Johnnie Mae Boner taking the oath of office as Mayor of Donelson. She is the first woman to have attained this honor. That building looks like Donelson High School, only it is so large. But it is D. H. S., and on the staff is Betty Sue Anderson. She said she was going to be a teacher, but you thought she'd change her mind, didn't you? Before I could answer, he braced himself and took another look. Oh, I see Peggy Neal teaching square dancing! Not only does she operate a dance studio in Donel- son, but she has made the dance popular throughout the United States. Her brother, Sam, and his band have made several pictures, and because of his popularity, the Grand Ole Opry is now on a world hook-up. Your class is also well represented in the held of sports. l see Madison Square Garden, where Louise Pearce, now champion lightweight woman boxer, managed by Billy Spann, is stepping into the ring to protect her title. In the third row is Barbara Barton, the wife of a millionaire. fThis could account for her being the 'Best-Dressed Woman of 195815 Across the aisle is Frances McCormick, a reporter for the New York Tribune, who is writing up the fight for her paper. I imagine her experience on the Don-L accounts for her having such a good position. Johnnie Pickett and Tommy Cloyd are also in the crowd. Tommy is now head coach at Vanderbilt and Johnnie is a pilot for World Airlines. He was offered a contract by Warner'Brothers but refused because he preferred flying. The scene changes. There are the managers of all the leading baseball teams arguing over some baseball players. These players are none other than Leonard Raney and Arthur Mclntire, two of the KNOTHOLE GLANCES ff! ,: ff lf N if ff L jf ff ff eff et! ...r A 1 i !

Leonard is the best pitcher ever known in the history of .5 ' V 1 baseball, and Arthur is 'Mr. Shortstop.' f What is this? Oh, it is a hospital -the largest. in Tennessee. ln the operating room the head ' I doctor has just finished an emergency and is removing his gloves. It is Bobby Baker. His assistantis 1 f ' K, Betty Jean Smith, a famous surgical nurse. Beside a bed in the private wing is another nurse, holding 'l .- P . 1 a patient's hand. She seems to be' enjoying her job. Well, if it isn't Eleanor Barnes!! You can see i ! that she is very efficient. K I I ld The capital of the United States comes into view. I see Norman Hust, the Secretary of Agriculture, ! - N dictating a letter to his competent secretary, Kathleen Cargile. I also see-Jean Lane and her husband 1 1 ,N iii Washington. He is an officer in the Army Air Corps and was called to give his opinion on a new ' A 5, A 1 p alle. ig: i Whewl! This thing is making me dizzy! exclaimed the woodpecker. Here we are in Donelson 4 ll f ' Q again! There is Purity Dairies, Inc., now grown to be a large business. Inside is a large door with . W I 'William Ezell, President' on it, and there he is, with his feet propped up on the polished desk. In ' A the kitchen of a cute little bungalow not far away is Jeannine Bald, busily preparing supper. She got I . l her M.R.S. degree soon after graduation from high school. Walking down the main street is Jimmie 'V - I O'Hara, a policeman now. How he must enjoy his job, because all day he can tell people what to do! There is an up-to-date Beauty Salon, owned by Fostena Peach. Sitting in the waiting room is Q 5 Joanne Pingston, who models the sensational clothing designed by Mamie York. 'Her creations are M worn by the First Lady, as well as by many other celebrities. Two other patrons of Fostena's are l K ! entering the salon, Joyce Nipp and Wanda Howard. Joyce, now happily married, was recently elected X ' ' as the 'Housewife of the Year! Her husband is the owner of a large filling station. Also a winner of r 5 a contest held this year, 1958, is Wanda, who got first place in the Running Man Contest. She is -f I leaving soon for a two-weeks' vacation in Hawaii, which is part of her awards. ' Wait a minute!! Not so fast!! The Beauty Salon is turning into a Restaurant! At a table in 1 '- the corner are Sam Woodroof, a fur trader from Alaska, and Cecil Waggoner, who works with him. ' ,f f Talking with them is an attractive girl whose head is almost as red as mine! . . . Oh, yes, it is Frances X ' Paul, the owner of the restaurant. The door opens, and in comes Mary Louise Hood with her husband, I ' J i a famous organist. They have just returned from Europe, where he has been on a concert tour. I, , At this point my feathered friend drew his head out of the hole and turned to me stiflly, Sufferin' ' saplingsll he exclaimed, but I've surely a crick in my neck! Guess that's the price of curiosity. I However, I can't look any more, or I'll be cross-eyed. You'll just have to wait and find out where f you'll be in 1958. So long! With a quick flutter of wings he was gone, and I continued my solitary walk. .

It brings a thought of sad regret To say good-bye to friends we've met, So with a pause we say adieu To all our friends-especially you. W'e're grateful for so many joys You've offered to both girls and boysg XfVe're thankful, too, for knowledge learned On every textbook page we've turned. VVe're proud of linal goals achieved, And errors, too, long since retrieved, We'll make you glad you knew our class, And sorry for doubts that we'd ever pass! VVe'll find new fields and methods, too, To prove our worth to all of youg XfVe won't forget and take for granted At harvest time the seeds you planted. So, Alma Mater, here's to you Our fond farewell, sincere and true, And with it goes each senior's key To Donelson's book of memory.

We have added many new members to our local chapter as well as enrolling eight new. members with N. F. L. Four of our N. F. L. members - Mary Ann Edwards, Bobby Baker, John Tucker, and Richard Jenkins -won Degrees of Honor. We have won ribbons in the following fields: Humorous Reading. Declamation. and Oral' Interpretation of Poetry. Our debate team-Betty jean Smith, Bobby Baker, Mary Lou Ferrell. and Orlis Turrentine-represented us. creditably, on the question: Resolved: That the Federal Government Shall Require Arbitration of Labor Disputes in All Basic Industries. To emphasize learning rather than winning has been our motto, and we hope its merit will encourage others to enter the field of public speaking.

'THOMPSON1 BILLY SPANN, Center 1.---L These two boys, coached by B. H. Thompson, set a new record for Donelson. Bill Ezell, the pile-driving tailback, who could always be count- ed on to carry the ball, scored a mass of touch- downsg and Billy Spann, that rugged center, put forth every ounce .he had to win for Donelson. When the season came to a close, Spann won a place as center on the All-City Team, and Ezell received honorable mention. FOOTBALL RESUME SCHEDULE Donelson's football team should be highly commended for the work they did this year. When the time came to begin practice, about thirty candidates reported to Coach B. H. Thompson. Only four letter men returned, and three of these were seniors. Prospects for the team were not so good. After two weeks, however, the boys began rounding into shape. When the season opened, they out- fought Franklin in rain and mud on the latter's field. With this game as only the beginning of a tough schedule, they went on to win six and lose three, and were selected the best little high school team in the loop. A host of letter men are returningnext year, mostly sophomores and juniors, giving Coach Thompson a better prospect for the future.

The Girls' Basketball Team. losing most of its first- team players last year, started out with dim prospects for the 1917-48 season. Mfith Betty Sue Anderson the only regular from last year's team returning, Coach B. H. Thompson built a team composed of rather inexperiencegl material. The team had a good season, however, winning twelve games and losing five. Going into tournament play unseeded, they marched over Du Pont and Hillsboro by slim margins and mauled Cumberland severely. Although beaten by Bellevue thirty-six to twenty-seven, they entered the Unit Tournament as the runners-up, where they walked over Ashland City and Cross Plains. picked to win the tournament. Again they entered the finals against the mighty Bellevue, and were beaten this time thirty to twenty-eight. Proceeding to the Regional Tournament. they beat Livingston Academy thirty-four to twenty-seven, but in the semifinals were forced to bow to a much taller team from Fliutville by a score of thirty-two to thirty-one. In the Regional Tournament they won the Sportsmanship Trophy and were voted the most surprising sextet of the year. Our team has won many honors for Donelson, and 1ll12l2'l'1'. Hillsboro ..

Four regulars this year are seniors - Tommy Cloyd, Captaing Johnnie Pickett, Bill Ezell, and Jimmie O'Hara. Bill lacked only one vote gaining a place on the All-District Team for his outstanding play in the -Ioelton game.
