Motto: 'Prove all things, hold fast to that which is good.” Flower: Pink Rose Color: Rose and White CLASS HISTORY Looking through the records of the Educational journeys of the senior class through the years we have found one record in which we are especially interested. Let us tell you of this journey which started in 1939. Our plane glided in on the 4th day of September ’39. Our airline hostesses were Miss Jenny Lee Wilson and Mrs. Mary Huffman. With much patience and informality, the 60 of us were registered and brought aboard the Drexel School” to start our travel of education. Our air-mail message is to those who piloted us for eight years— Thanks for making our lives more fruitful, pleasant, and happier.” After eight short trips we graduated to a bigger and better plane, called Drexel High School piloted by Mr. Harry L. Hallyburton and his crew: Mrs. Stover, Mrs. Russell, Miss McNeely, Mrs. Dellinger, Miss Pyatt, and Miss Miller. During this trip the Drexel High School Band was reorganized under the direction of Mrs. Dellinger. At the end of this first trip 3 had bailed out and one of the crew, Miss McNeely, was transferred to a bigger plane at High Point. We gained a new passenger from Valdesc, Betty June Queen, and a new crew member, Mr. R. L. Patton. After losing Mrs. Dellinger and gaining Miss Silvers, Mr. Teems, Mr. Abernathy and Mr. Smyre, we started off with a full crew on our eleventh flight. Our trip proved to be one of the most enjoyable rides we had taken. We presented a play entitled Moon-Shy.” Going through Hawaii we stopped and gave the seniors aboard a banquet which proved to be most successful. During this trip, we also stopped at Asheville for our band to enter a district contest. It gave an excellent concert. Mr. Hallyburton landed us for our last refueling and new passengers, Joe Carswell and Ernest Shell, came aboard to make our total 51. This trip started off very success- fully as seven of our senior members aided Drexel High School in winning the Six-Man State Championship in football. Eight of our seniors made the basketball team to add more joy to this last year. The flight scheduled for the spring semester sounds interesting. We’ll make a long stop in Washington, D. C., we hope. We also hope we don’t lose any members when we visit the zoo. Two Senior plays will mean two more stops. Then of course, where the Juniors will take us when they decide to give us the annual feast is still a mystery, but it all sounds exciting. Spring always brings softball and baseball, two more activities that make school worthwhile. Our plane will soon glide in for new passengers and we will be getting off ready to face the world alone. It is with a grateful heart we say thank-you to our pilot and his crew, and adieu to Drexel High School—Keep-em flying! Bill Buff Nell Shull Historians DID YOU KNOW THAT —The Six-Man Champions consisted of seven seniors. —Kat is the only one who has successfully caught a senior boy-friend. —The Big Newspaper was written by the little but mighty, Nell Shull. —Murline often rides in a taxi. —Guy and Donald like to ga dear hunting! —Jerry kept his fist balled up so long, it became a habit —watch out Norma. —Joe Carswell doesn’t seem to have any rhythm at all. —Bonnie can really chauffeur that Chevie—How about it, Jane? —Lib likes to play ball—also likes Yankee Ballplayers. —Ralph Anthony hangs around school most of the time —Usually no further than Valdese or Morganton. —Gay Avis has a good educational influence—How about your grades J. B.? —Betty Lou knows all those movie stars—just look at her billfold. —Geraldine and Shelton are brother and sister—and both redheaded—However, they are different in a FEW ways, says Shelton. —It isn’t school Jimmy and Garland object to; it’s the principle of the thing. —John Henry and Ned have good looking limousines. Not so fast, girls. —It’s unusual to see a diamond around, isn’t it Mildred, Clara, Edna Jean, Dot, Wanda, Barbara?!!—Well we could name on— —Gerald McNeely’s favorite tune is there’s a long, long trail a winding”—To High Peak. —Carol’s hope chest is just full of Hope—Keep your gloves on Shorty! —Muriel and Betty are always playing—either with babies or Mr. Patton. —Ralph Isenhour has a good ear for listening—ask Ralph Ab-----. —Margaret often lets that Rich-ie boy take her to the Drive-In. Usually every Tuesday night. —Joe Deans’ last name is Bard rather than Beard. —The windy city (Chicago) has blown a familiar breeze back to Drexel; he breezed right through Phid’s door. —The twelve o’clock whistle puts Betty Jean on her Homeward journey. —Ernest is in earnest about Ernest. —Mifryonne rushes home from church in order to hear her number 1 program, Bill and Beulah.” —Eva is once again getting used to speaking French in- stead of baby-talk. —Lamonte’s Jeep tires are geting worn slick. Could it be those trips on the River-Road? —Gloria doesn’t study all the time—she just pretends to. —Jean has a gift of gab—that’s why she’s a telephone operator. —Ted decided that all play and' no work makes a boy very dull. —Garmon and Darby have resolved to stick with their blonds! —Ernestine used some of her energy in the Dime Store. The other dime’s worth is used in rooting for those Wolverines.” —Dot Stamey and Lula Mae are really a team—they’re always pulling together. —Bill Buff doesn’t have a toni! He’s just been riding in his convertible with the top down. Results—curls and girls. —Benny’s by-line is Be an individualist.” —Betty June is familiar with the past tense of the verb to be, (Been). —Bill Berry took an umbrella to Church one hot Sunday. Why?? He heard the preacher was going to preach up a storm. —Leta Faye studies the three R’s. Could it be that a cer- tain boy’s name is R. R. R.?? —The Seniors won’t admit it, but they have a slight yearning to stay at Drexel High. They have so much talent they will probably be asked to stay. Betty June Phid CLASS PROPHECY While attending th§ Catawba County Fair, we decided to have our fortunes told by Madame Zolga. Once inside we got a better idea. We would have her tell the future of our class of ’51, 10 years from now. Now we shall give the strange and surprising tale as it was given to us. Carol Bryant and Bill Berry, two of the nation’s fore- most painters, are making a tour of Europe, visiting some of the famous art gallfrjes where their paintings are on exhibition. Kat McNeely, home for a vacation from teaching at U.N.C. told us that she has deserted her classroom to go see Donald McNeely play pro-football for the Washington Redskins. Dot Butler, famous news commentator, reported that Benny Craig, famous hot-rodder, won the Indianapolis Speedway Classic yesterday, and that Jerry Jacksop, Civil Engineer, has completed the nation’s largest dam in mid- west. Gerald McNeely, ace left hander for the N. Y. Yankees, pitched his second no-hit, no-run game against the Boston Red Sox. Joe Carswell, the Fred Astaire of today, just signed a new contract with Warner Brothers for the remake of Let’s Dance.” His co-star is the talented Barbara Abernathy. Bill Buff and his jiving five, featuring Guy Settlemyre with his golden trumpet, are appearing weekly on Darby Coopers television show, incidentally, this is color tele- vision finally completed by Ned Sigmon. Senator Baird introduced a bill for new tax appropri- ations. His secretary, Jane Deal, helped work this out. Garmon Farris, new owner of the New York Times, has appointed to his staff; Garland Watts, Sports Editor, Lib Branch, Society Editor, and Muriel Page, the editor of the famous column, The World of Today.” The famous duet, Margaret Baker and Lamont Harris, are now making records for Columbia. Nell Shull, manager of Drexel’s Community Center, announced today that the State Championship Basketball Tournament will start here tonight. The coach of the favorite team, Drexel, is Ralph Isenhour. Ted Reese led the nation in farm produce sales for ’61 from his 4000 acre farm in Nebraska. Rear Admiral Shelton Woodie and Captain Jim Bollinger are home on leave from their ship, U.S.S. Missouri. Betty June Queen and Minyonne Sojourner are secre- taries for John H. Powell, president of the Drexel Furni- ture Co. Wanda Fender, a popular Power’s Model, has been featured as Life’s cover girl. Phyllis Harris, Gay Avis Rector have managed to stay together through the years, equally successful in the field of Nursing. Betty Cline has opened her new supermarket on South Main St. in Drexel. Murline Berry and Ernestine Baker are secretaries for the well to do Philadelphia lawyer, Ernest Shell. Randel Cannon, president of American Air Lines, has added several new jets to his company. Geraldine Woodie, home missionary is doing a fine job in the religious field. Clara Miller was awarded for her performance in Won- derful You.” Lula Mae and Dot Stamey are making a great hit with their radio program over C.B.S. Jean Mull now has a position in one of Bell Telephones’ offices. Lieut. Edna Jean Hallyburton and Capt. Bonnie Griffen stated that they are having a tough time signing recruits in the Wacs. Leta Moses and Mildred Newton are doing splendid business in their beauty shop. Gloria Smith and Betty Stamey are proving that women still hold an important part in the world by taking Mrs. Roosevelt’s place in Washington. Betty Berry is the secretary of Ralph Anthony, a prom- inent business man in New York. And so ends the surprising tale which we hope will impress our classmates, but we know they’ll never believe —neither do we.
