BELIEVE IT OR NOT The Senior Class of 1948-49 has won many honors in athletics, dramatics, and public speaking. The Seniors are very studious (at times). Verified data of individual members: Ray Aikens likes red heads (especially one). Although Clarence just loves French and hates his Reader’s Digest he still has time to go to Morganton every other night. Ray Burns isn’t crazy—yet. Just seems that way. Max doesn’t sing all the time. He takes time off to let his eyes wander to a certain, desk in the room. Edna doesn’t study all the time. She just pretends to. Margaret thinks she has him. In fact, she ought to know it. Betty Jean and Freida aren’t always together because Freida has been seen with the opposite sex. Chigger’s classroom football plus his outdoor football equals professional football. Joyce likes a certain black Dodge—or maybe it’s the driver. Doris, whom Mr. Entzi calls Little One”, loves that basketball! Wonder why Faye sits with her arm on the desk behind her? Could it be because of R-----? Ernest hopes he has her, ’cause he’d die if he couldn’t get her. Frances finally got the knot tied. Beware Frances! Go-lightly-ly. Mary likes one army suit, or is it the ex-army man! Howard likes to take snapshots—especially of a certain girl in the ninth grade! Elizabeth really knows how to march the band and twirl that baton—especially when the football players are looking on. Joan is so lonesome since Berea College stuck its nose in and captured her man. She’s getting over it by degrees. Carthel hardly ever goes to the drugstore after school. Gwynn just loves to watch the cheerleaders. Wonder why? Evelyn hardly ever gets to stay up later than 9:30—except when Cecil calls. Gillie Mae does like the Air Corps! She only gets a letter every other day. Since Bill is now King of the Senior Class, he is planning to become President bf the United States in 1952. Ruth is really interested in algebra! She never takes her eyes off of Mrs. Russell. Even though Ray F. never'! disturbs in English Class or class meetings, he makes up for lost itme on the ball field. Ray Martin does go to the movie at Morganton. I think she is a blond Joy”. Josephine has blonde hair—hubba-hubba'! We know one boy that likes it. Rheba Reece is courting—Tsk! Tsk! That is the solution for sleepy eyes on Monday morning. Helen was seen wearing an engagement ring. Could it really be true? Lester would, wouldn’t he? Or wood-ie? Yes, I think he would! Rheba Denton loves those college football games, (or the players). Wonder when Pauline is going to trade her ring in on a new one? Andrew is all up in the air about his height. He is 6 feet 2 1-2 inches. Bonnie is seeing red lately—especially cars. Ben likes to go with Chigger on his bus route. A Senior Girl?? Gloria likes to work in the telephone office. Could it be the u ork? There seems to be a mystery around school since a majority of the Drexel boyS'- have become so interested in the Morganton girls. BELIEVE IT OR NOT!! MARGARET FRANKLIN.
