A hearty welcome to our DURHAM COUNTY CIRCUS! We 've worked hard to make it what we feel to be truly one of the GREATEST SHOWS ON EARTH ! When we say WE ,we mean EVERYBODY in the CIRCUS, .... from the OWNER, .... Mr. Chewning, his BUSINESS CHIEF,.... Mr. Smith our BOARD of DIRECTORS, .... Dr. Jordan, Mrs. Lanning, Mr. Tilley Mr. Green and Mr. Council,right on downto our TEN PRODUCTION MANAGERS our hundreds of able, skilled TRAINERS our loyal STOCKHOLDERS ,.... which in- clude every parent in Durham County, .... then a host of STAGEHANDS, who keep our TENTS and SIDESHOWS warm and clean .... and last but certainly NOT LEAST .... the MENAGERIE, .... which,we assure you, includes some of the strangest ANIMALS you'll ever hope to see ,.... and our great host of TRAINED PERFORMERS , .... truly as expert and spectacular a set of TROUPERS as you'll find anywhere! How did our CIRCUS reach this state of perfection? Well .. it has been the unsurpassed TEAMWORK of all the folks men- tioned above. Each has a special job to do and ,, does it well. For instance, take our PRODUCTION MANAGERS: MISS MICHAELS has charge of training our youngest animals, and puts them through their paces for their first eight years as members of our circus. Then she turns them over to MRS. HASSELL when they are readyto take on more difficult feats. All during their stay with our circus MRS. BOUZA RD and MISS BAGWELL show the animals the joy and charm of music and song, while MISS ALEXANDERenhances their , ,L-f '-f- I 1 I , . 1 .t U ,I l' - ul I ,I s .le'N , R . xii' 1 Xwa' ,- Y' yi, , A s f I Y HOCKER comes to the rescue of any who have SPEECH difficulties, MRS GREEN helps any who stray away from the CIRCUS GROUNDS to find their way back quickly and safely once more, and MISS BURGESS urges each circus mem ber to make life more joyous and bright through the exciting use of COLORS LINES and SHAPES! MR. RAY keeps all our animals sound and healthy, and directs the HIGHLY TRAINED PERFORMERS in feats of daring PHYSICAL PRO WESS involving coordination of MIND and MUSCLE. We all know on what an army is said to travel: it is the same with a circus! Where would we all be without MRS. LITTLE and her CAFETERIA MANAGERS who daily see that each member of our tremendous circus crowd is served nutritious and taste tempting MEALS! our success in playing to PACKED AUDIENCES that our crowds can no longer be housed in the 10 MAIN TENTS where our CIRCUS MEMBERS nowpractice and perform daily! To alleviate this situation, a BOND ISSUE was recently passed, and even now, plans are rapidly going forward for the erection of many new and more elegant BlG TOPS where we can put on even greater perfor- mances than at the present timel One thing makes us sad, however. Many of our TOP-NOTCH PERFORMERS are leaving us after this year. They have reached the top and now plan to take the show ON THE ROAD l They will be going, some inone direction,some in another, to all parts of our nation, .... and perhaps overseas, .... but wherever they go, we know they will reflect honor upon their HOME CIRCUS and carry on the true Dur- ham County tradition. To you ,... our CIRCUS GRADUATES of 1953, .... we wish good luck, good fortune, and GODSPEEDl I I , 1 ' K q ' Q , , 7' a 9 0 6 A 7 ,X . I ' f M I .. , ,W 'rf-., if ' 5 . S Q X l .

X ij 5 A 1 HUUA M, In the great traditionof show business, perhaps the most frequently used expression we hear is, THE SHOW MUST GO ON! When Mr. Knobby Blair, our County Coach, had to leave us for a tour of duty in the Army Air Corps, someone had to be found to take over his work. And that's how we came to know Coach Ray! He came to fill up a gap,...to shoulder another's responsibilities, ...to help keep our Circus operating smoothly. This he has done mag- nificently, knowing it might be for only two short years. But in this brief time, he has endeared himself to every member of our circus gang. For his gaiety, his open friendliness, his deep sincerity, his de- votion to our cause, his unceasing efforts to make better sports of us al1,...for the unfailing example he has set for us of what true SHOW- MANSHIP and SPORTSMANSHIP mean,...we now ask you to: XC.! J L, Step right this way ,... ladies and gents! Hurry over to the athletes' tents. Here's one in our Circus with heart sincere, Who meets loss or triumph without a fear. 'x He's brought good sportsmanship, ever, alway And worked hard for our COUNTS, by night and by day! When in carnival mood or in serious vein, He has meant much to us ,... time and again. To him we now make our dedication ,... With hearts full of love and appreciation. For our MAN-OF-THE-YEAR , . . . hip-hip-hooray! You see, . . . he's none other than COACH SIDNEY RAY! ,... ,f ff' ,s ff- 13 013 ff- l- ' CIJIKNTS s 9- , ,J W?ff,,,,lfM,gj jff, M.,,,,Q . vi,-Aff, X641 ,Mi J ,, J f M ! if--4 ,rj , YY -IV., ff ff,f4 -if Qfjjl ,Lf 'fy 5 !

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the renowned and honored Class of 1953, being of sound mind and body and overflowing with the accumulated knowledge of our reign at Bragtown High School, desire to bequeath aminute por- tion of our collection of talent, accom- plishment, and character, which have eclipsed the endeavors of allpredecess - ors, to the underclassmen, in order that they may aspire to the utter impossi- bility of equaling our mountainous achievements.

School days, Wou1dn't be golden- rule days Without Dan Cupid's piercing darts - To strike these palpitat- I ing hearts. FT ,FL K ' 't ! I .XJ r-ig if JJ Spun Sugar Candy!! fOr is it a lot of taffy?J 35 CLASS PROPH ECY The year is 1964. The flood of war is over and democracy has swept the tide of Communism from the face of the earth. I am seated in front of my people- vision screen. lSimilar to old time television, only instead of channels, it can be turned to any person alive., Through my head pass thoughts of old friends, people I knew in school, facesl haven't seen for years. Guess I'll tune in and see what my old friends are doing. First . . . well, well, Betty Fogleman is singing at the Copaca- bona tonight. I always knew she'd make big time. Here's a picture of Rhodes Dodson addressing the Republican National Con- vention. The Democrats have Ikey Dunnagan up for President. From here it looks like a pretty even match. Gra- ham Chappell is the Republican nominee for senator and Bobby Fallaw is the Democrat. Curtis Foreman nominated Bobby. Ikey has even quit smoking so he can hold himself up as an unblemished citizen. Well, that's politics. Here is a picture of Barbara Suggs. I knew she would be a nice looking woman as she was such a pretty girl. She's hostess on the same airplane as Babs Neal. The plane Babs was on crashed the other day but no one was injured. She forgot to fasten her safety belt, and when the plane came in for a landing her head hit the side of the plane. Babs was un- hurt but the plane was a total wreck. Bruce Fowler, the pilot, lost his upper plate, but other than that was uninjured. Speaking of injuries, I see where Ruth Bradford, a nurse at Ruby Hopkins, married one of the rich oil well owners who came to the hospital with a broken toe. I guess you saw and read about Faydene Lockamy accidentally giving her patient an overdose of medicine and it turned out to be a cure for heart disease. It seems that Marie Casey has made quite a name for herself in the field of nursing, too. Thelma Browning teaching school? Thelma loved her dramatics, but I never thought she would teach scho.ol. She makes about thirty bucks a week and gets all the chalk she can eat. Well, I see that Peggy iMcKee.has at last announced her engagement. It seems everytime J. C. started to propose he would fall asleep. Wonder what's new in the sports world. Henry Addison is captain of the New York Yankees baseball team. Hmm . . . wonder if he'll end up a teacher as he planned. Here's another surprise, well, not exactly. Claiborne Hudson has a quartet which he calls the Boll Weevil Quartet. I believe that they are featured at the same club where Betty Jean is singing. Hmm . . . wonder what the bunch of people are gathered around. Well, it's Fairview Skating Rink, at least that is what it was until Bobby McNeill bought it out. ' There is the same old crowd that use to go to the rink, Helen Hunt, Ronny Rigsbee, Peggy Howell, Carol Parrish, and L, C, Meachum and Earl Rhew. I hear that L. C. is teaching skating, he must have improved since the last I heard. Another picture here, I see where the solving of a sensational murder case gained headlines for detectives Harrison Register and Curtis Foreman. They arrived at a rooming house- in the slums to find a man who had been poisoned, stabbed, shot, and strangled. With the help of F. B. I. Chief Joe Veasey, the murder was solved. A new grocei-y,store has been open- ed up, I see. It is owned by Ronny Year- gan and Wallace Long. Here are two of our classmates whom I have been wondering about: Morris Riley and Billy Ferrell. They look swell, even if they are barefooted. They always were terrific shoe salesmen. This looks bad. Benny Anderson, Vernon Carroll, and L, T. Parrish had a wreck on the new highway built by Vic Browning and Maynard May. No one was hurt, but I'm not surprised that they had a wreck since they were in Vernon's car, yes, the same one he had when we finished school. Mary Ellen Berry just left for Europe to join her husband, oh, yes, I imagine she will see Faye Oakley when she gets '1h:ere. Faye and Fred left for Europe for their honeymoon five years ago and liked Europe so well they decided to stay. . Janice Kesterson and Loretta Deitz have opened a sewing shop. . Loretta models the dresses and Janice makes them. I guess Doc Holloway gets out light along the clothes line, since Janice can make her own clothes. Earl Pope isn't getting out so light, Ihear. It seems Doris brought him down to the shop and told him she wanted a new dress. 0 I knew Margaret Ward liked the Fort Bragg dances, but I didn't think she'd go so far as to start a dancing-school for service men. Nancy Weaver, Norma Jean Rigsbee, Anna Murphy, and Pat Wright help her out by checking hats and polishing shoes. f Vance Couch is a big business man now, he manufactures glass gloves. Peggy Elliot is Vance's secretary. Robert McLaurin and Billy Ferrell are still interested in East Durham girls, or so it seems, as they both mar- ried girls from East Durham. Carolyn Holt isn't as shy as she used to be. I see over here that she's starring in a play written by Steve Apple called Hamlet II. Well, two of our old classmhates are married. Who ever thought Judy Hunt, formerly, Frazier, would give up beach going for homemaking . It seems Shirley Booth changed her name to one of renown, Shirley Parks. Tommy Andrews has made some big money as Donald Hancock's manager, knew Don would make professional and everyone knew Tommy would find some way to make easy money. Oh, crap! I'm tired of prophesying, and I can't think of a witty way to end this thing, so, I'll just quit. Dot Bishop Ronny Hunt Rhodes Dodson I. J.

Many tears were shed when we were told that we would have to spend the day with Mrs. Lillian Umstead instead of our mothers. However, the tears did not last long, and soon we loved her, even when she gave us the dreaded demerits. Ofthese fifty-three little angels only ten have remained in our class at Hope Valley. Iva Smith, Everett Hill, Mickey Green, Billy Brogden, A1Hassel1, Bert Woolbright, Joyce Cherry, Jean Crichton, Frances Carden, and Jean Woody have spent twelve years together. How well we all remember our part in the May Day Festival. Wearing the costumes of flowers, butterflies, and bees, we had great fun dancing and singing as part of the celebration, Our second year also started with tears because our grade was divided, half went to Mrs. Horne, and half to Mrs. Darnell. This was the year we started our tonette band, and we were thrilled to give con- certs all over the county, Grade three was spent under the leadership of Miss Mary Kirkland and her trusty ruler. We learned to hustle this year after many, many lessons. Tommy Tilley joined us in the third grade, Remember Mrs. Barrett and our fourth grade? We weren'r allowed to enter the room until we spelled Tigris and Euphrates, Many of us got writer's cramp from writing l must not chew gum, We wrote this five thousand times when we were caught. Beverly Ruble joined us this year. Fifth grade! Now we thought we were really grown up. We'll all remember Mrs. Rhyne, Jocelyn, and Elise, The girls always beat the boys in baseball because Jocelyn and Elise played on their team. We were joined by Jackie Hayes and Tommy Howard in the fifth grade. Sixth grade ushered in ancient history and oral book reports. The boys joined the safety patrol under the supervision of our teacher, Mrs, Ward. Back with Mrs. Rhyne who skipped a grade and taught us again in the seventh grade. Running relay races was our specialty, and we also spent much time playing Bow, Bow, Oh Belinda. Vonnie Harmon and Pat Oakley joined our little group this year. Eighth grade with Mrs. Barbour! This was the year when the girls began to wear lipstick and the boys began to notice the girls. Student teachers and changing classes for the first time added to the excitement, Van Lynn, Neil Robinson, and Mary Margaret McFarland entered the eighth grade with us. Fun, pleasure, and brats! This marked our year with Mr. Williamson in the ninth grade. Oh, how fun- ny we looked when we were initiated into high school as lowly, green freshmen! How well we remember the many biology contracts that Mrs. Hall assigned during our sophomore year. We really spent time hunting for insects, birds, and flowers. Our family was increased in number when Richard Gwaltney and Carolyn Byrd joined us in the tenth grade. The busiest year of our lives was our junior year. Remember the pleasant hours spent working on the Halloween Carnival. We made over four hundred dollars for the Junior-Senior Banquet from the Carnival and by selling magazines, gubbie hats, and presenting a Womanless Wedding. The banquet will always hold an important place in our memories. Our trip to White Lake with Mrs. Novick climaxed our junior year. Most of us cried at the thought of losing our much loved teacher, who was moving to Pennsylvania. Jeanette Morris became a member of our class during our junior year. Seniors! Harriet Hackett, Wayne Fletcher, and Jeanette lsaccs joined us here. Our last year at Hope Valley will live forever in our memories. The fun we had working diligently on our English, even during extra night classes, we will always remember. Mrs. Duke helped us immensely. We really look forward to presenting the senior play, Night Must Fall. This last year is passing quickly, but we still have much to do. We will attend another Junior-Senior Banquet, give a return party, and do many other enjoyable activities. We hope to visit Washington, D.C., the legislature in Raleigh, and other places of interest. The spring will bring in Class Day and graduation, with caps, gowns, and diplomas, Our many thanks go to Mr. Vincent. who was like an understanding father to all of us: Mrs. Duke, who helped make our senior homeroom a cheerful one, and to Mrs. Hackworth, Mrs. Causey, Mrs, Hall, Mrs. Hill and Mrs. Harris who all helped us in every possible way. We shall always remember our many friends at Hope Valley and our marvelous years spent there.

He is stopping at the local hotel for the mg t. At Tommy's request, we decided to call together a few of our classmates of '53 to reminisce over old times. As a surprise, I took along my Hope Valley Annual. I had made notes beside each picture asl obtained information from various sources concerning their activities and accomplishments. Upon arriving at the hotel, I was greeted by the happy little group. After cheerful greetings, we settled back and opened the annual. From my notes we found that -- Bill Brogden is preaching before a large congregation in Florida. Incidently, he is about to stand before a minister himself with a young lady at his side. Carolyn Byrd has graduated from the University of Tampa, with a degree in science. She is now a labora- tory technician at Duke. Frances Carden went to a commercial school and is now putting her shorthand to good use in her office. Joyce Cherry graduated from Mars Hill and is a secretary at Yates Baptist Church. Jean Crichton served three years in the Marine Corps and then went to college, where she majored in Phys- ical Education. Now she has secured a position as a physical education instructor. Wayne Fletcher is a church organist. He is known as the greatest organist haling from North Carolina. He finally got rid of that old green convertible and has a sleek new '63 model. f lgiickeyd Green is now successful as president of Liggett and Myers Tobacco Company and also a success- ul usban . Richard Gwaltney has graduated from Duke Law School and is now putting his arguing to good use in the United Nations General Assembly. He is now Ambassador to Russia. Who is this bending over an X-Ray table? It's Harriet Hackett. She is working as an X-Ray technician at Duke Hospital. She is engaged to the head of the medical staff at Duke and is also president of the National X-Ray Technician Association. Well, Vonnie Harmon finally made up her mind. After contemplating whether to take up law or singing as a profession, we find that she is singing over station WCKY-TV. And who is this in the horn rimmed glasses? Of course, it's Al I-lassell. Why the hom rimms? Because he ruined his eye sight studying for many years to be a psychologist. He is now putting his psychology to work trying to understand his lovely wife. Jackie Hayes has graduated from Mars Hill College and is the publicity manager for her husband who is a successful TV comedian. Everette Hill has worked his way from a forest ranger to the president of the National Forest Rangers Assoc- iation. Everette has changed much since his school days. We wonder why he is bald. Oh yes, his wife hap- pens to be an Indian. Tommy Howard finally made it to Michigan where he married a very lovely lady and is now a success- ful test driver for the Ford Company. Jeannette Isaacs went to college where she majored in music. She is now a well-known musician and is still contemplating matrimony. , We find that Van Lynn went back on his word, but is paid off. Why? He is now an Admiral in the navy. He is called by his friends Admiral Van Fleet Lynn. Mary Margaret McFarland studied to be a laboratory technician at Duke and is now putting her knowledge to good use at the Veterans Hospital at Fayetteville, North Carolina. All her spare time is spent with her husband who is still a private at Fort Bragg. Jeannette Morris is now a senator's secretary. She has her eye on a Washington executive. She was just voted Miss Secretary of l963 . Pat Oakley finally made up her mind. After studying X-Ray at Duke, she went to Washington, D.C. where she put her experience to good use ina Veterans Hospital. lncidently, she landed the Chief of Police on whom she had had her eyes for several years. Neil Robinson, our class casanova, is making the navy his career. He is also living up to the tradition of the sailor with a girl in every DOII. Beverly Ruble is now secretary to her husband, who is President of a large shoe manufacturing company in New York. In her spare time she is a Conover Model. Iva Smith, of course, is married. She is now living in a ranch-type house in Nevada, where she and her husband raise thoroughbred horses for a living. Jean Woody, after graduating from the University of North Carolina, is now teaching high school science. She is married to the basketball coach of North Carolina State College. Bert Woolbright is now on TV. You can see him every Saturday on The Big Top Circus. You can see him tumbling across the screen while he is drinking a glass of Sealtest Milk. to Q 54 SUPERLATIVES 25 -fy Y 4' . - ' w 'in LUV. of t ig? , - gg., af' Vx. , QA ,-.

E .fvx. 2 ' f 2 NN -i I , lv 0m Wwhw Upon entering High School this year of 1952, we were pleased with the fact we had stayed in school for eleven years, However, we could not keep our minds from flashing back to our first year when we were shy youngsters, entering the first grade, Some of us were crying, some were trying to run back home, and others were amazed at the new world we had entered. We entered the first act ofthe High School performance in 1948. Being eighth graders, we felt proud and somewhat afraid of the audience we were to face. Our class was di- vided into two rings with Johnny Hamm and Worth Yates as Masters of Ceremonies. We danced our way into the second year, Johnny Hamm and Worth Yates were still the Masters ofthe rings, but there were more actors that year, because we had representatives in the main show-the Student Council, and we started traveling then, remember? In our third year, our spirits really soared because we had two stars in the Student Council show-Shirley Creech as treasurer from Miss Clay's section and Ann Randolph as Secretary from Mrs. Taylor's section, During this year of show business, we felt that we had begun to grow and mature, the boys of the circus business became necessities in- stead of menacesg once more we participated actively in the main attraction, the Stu- dent Councilg and some of the members of the show were lucky enough to go to Wash- ington, Johnny Hamm and Worth Yates were still the masters of the rings, We entered our Junior year with a happy, but impatient heart, for we were to order and receive our traditional rings as an addition to our regular costume. We were still influential in the Student Council, with Johnny Hamm as the co-star of the show, We had two additional rings: the magazine sale and the Junior Play, thanks to the efforts of Miss Clay and Mr. Goodwin. The proceeds of these two shows went to a banquet given by the Juniors for the Senior members of the crew. Perhaps the climax of this year's performance wasthe day we received our rings-directly after Christmas. Remem- ber how we placed our hands on our head, claiming that- we had the headache or our eyes hurt? We just could not keep our hands down: could we? The entire circus cast enjoyed a very profitable trip to Williamsburg. Worth Yates and Johnny Hamm were still masters of the ring, Now, we have entered our last year of circus business, we have really settled down to work. For the first time, our cast is united into one great big family, Having been separated for eleven years does not seem to have done us any harm. Our hearts are gay as the year mounts for our successes are soaring, We are so busy this year that we have three main rings: the Senior Play, the Halloween Carnival, and a trip to New York. We hope these acts will be a success. Johnny Hamm, who still blushes, is doing a wonderful job as barker for the Student Council. Our class is holding to its tradition of having another star in that ring Doris Jean Verricchia, who is keeping a weekly account of our records. We have a new master of ceremonies this last year. We will always remember this year and we hope that the members of the crew and the stockholders will have nothing but kind memories of us as we leave the circus, Historian, Annie Rose Bishop 86 1-il, .tiff ir 4. X 1 7 wzfzq! qfwvzqf See 74a 1 965 eww +1+ ' 'iw I had grown into a quiet, plump lady with spectacles, but I enjoyed taking my nephew to the circus. The barker begins to sing out: Hurry, hurry, get your ticket! See the most colossal show on earth! See the 1963 revue of the Sentinel Circus! Watch them perform with death staring them in the face, with man eating animals within their reach. The most daring, devas- tating feats ever shown on any Midway! I began searching for the owner of this voice when I came face to face with quiet Paul Riley dressed in a bright red coat, black boots, and a tall black hat, Ihad been in line for some time whenl finally reached the ticket window and was purchasing my ticket when Jack Perry spoke to me. He had aged since I last saw him but he was as hand- some as ever, We had no trouble finding our seats and were settled only a few minutes when my nephew began to want some peanuts, Lucille Stallings came by selling them, She says she has been with the circus for two years, My, how dashing she looked in her red chintz costume, The band starts playing the National Anthem and to my surprise Shirley Creech sings. fl am glad to see she had finally landed the job of her dreams,j When the number is concluded the leader comes forward to take his bow. Well! Of all people, Harold McClure! Yes, he is finally wearing a uniform but I can remember when he used to hide every time he saw one, especially khaki. Here comes the mistress of ceremonies clad in a glittering suit of gold, riding on a prancing horse. Icould see then that it was Ann Randolph, I can remember Ann had always liked glittery things, The first three acts are just about ready to begin, In the first ring I see Frances Davis and Annie Rose Bishop, They have become the best sword swallowers in the world. The second ring holds a beautiful girl with an enchanted horn in her mouth, Now I can see it is Corine Dicker- son, She has always taken an interest in boys but now snake charming fascinates her, There is a hilarious sight in the third ring for the fat lady and tall man have appeared. Oh, No! it couldn't be, but it is Mozelle Blalock and Roy Way, She surely has put on a lot around the waist and Roy resembles a bean pole, My, how some people can change, Now there appears a roller skating act in another ring, I became fascinated by the graceful artist as she makes amazing turns and forms intricate figures with the greatest of ease. I am not too surprised when I recognize her as Jackie Bishop. The next act that catches my eye is three children doing a tumbling act followed by their parents, Ihad heard that Johnny Hamm and Evelena Pugh had gone into show business after their college careers hadn't paid off, Oh, there comes the lion tamer and who should it be but Clara Blalock, She has found men too easy to tame and has taken up lion taming, My nephew is particularly excited when one of the clowns comes up and speaks to me. Al- thoughlneverthought beinga clown would interest Ousley Lunsford, yet his love for bright colors had really been solved. Our attention is quickly drawn to the fire eater, How unbelievable this is to me, seeing calm, quiet Buddy Bowling gulping large quantities of fire. As he disappears, we are attracted to a tall auburn-haired man covered with tatoos accompanied by a low, very fat rubber man, These revealed themselves to me . . . Thomas Riggs and Norman Williams, My nephew quickly cries, Look! Five girls juggling, five balls each, It's unbelievable that these are Catherine Cook, Wanda Adams, Billie Jean High, Irene Robbins, and Barbara Bul- lock. The bareback riders in bright costumes came jolting out on their horses. They look very pretty and as I see who they are the shock is great, for it is Patsy Mclrlaney. Doris Verricchia, Geralding Bowling, and Mary Jane Craig, I guess the teaching profession didn't pay off for Doris and Patsy and that Mary Jane and Geraldine just QOI tired of farming. The Flying Highs have taken over the first ring now, That name sounds familiar to me- now I know who it is, Carolyn Herndon and Carver High, only Carolyn has changed her name, She always used to worry about Carver's flying and now here she is flying through the air while he holds the strings for her. Ah! this should be a good act for in second ring we have a team of acrobats - Worth Yates and Delano Verricchia. They are performing stunts with no net, in the air one hundred feet Look! Delano is attempting to do a double sommersault in mid air, ljust can't look Thudi The last time I saw Delano, he was flying through the air for Worth had forgotten to caich him. Worth was always the forgetful type. Delano must have been hurt for they are calling for Doctoi Shirley Markham. A magician had taken over the third ring. He did an old trick of pulling a rabbit our of his hat, As I look closely at the rabbit I see it is Donald Robbins.

These rings were started in three different sections of northern Durham County on a cool, sunny September morning in the year of 1941. Unaware of the war that was beginning, these actors and actresses worked toward one goal. the day that they would be made into one large circus. The rings, Holt, Mangum, and Rouge- mont, came together in 1947 and made one Big Top Show , the senior class of 553. The environment our first year was quite new to us, but with our trainers, Miss Tilley. Miss Parker and Mrs. Lewis, we learned the first rules that entertainers should know. At the comple- tion of this act, we were promoted to Act Two. Circus life is very confusing and it is hard to remember all that happened in the next five acts. Our trainers who cracked their whips for acts two through six were: Mrs. McGinnis, Miss Byrd, Miss Parker, Miss Shaw, Miss Felts, Mrs. W. M. Johnson, Mrs. M. J. Carver, Mrs. Chandler, Mrs. Callahan, Miss Warren. and Miss Nichols. These acts were full of different activities. such as geography of the world. arithmetic. but most of all, how to become better entertainers. At last the day finally came. The entertainers from l-lolt and Rougemont joined us, and that made us a big three ring circus with Mrs. Crabtree as our trainer. The new performers were: Sue Poole. Lewis Chambers. Herbert Larry, Marie Stone, Nancy Regan, Louise Painter. and Teeny Hill from Rougemont. and Lena Mae Burroughs, Burma Aiken, Peggy Rigsbee, Norman Carden, Worth Ellis. Martharee Holden, Carl Roberts, Paul Smith, Betty Lou Johnson, Clyde Terry, Ralph Cates, Bruce Wheeler and Haywood Ellis from Holt. Ellen and Troy Cash joined us from Glenn. We moved on to Act Eight. Our trainer, Mrs. Hill, taught us about the state of North Caro- lina and we enjoyed painting and remodeling our tent. She explained that we were now ready to leave our small tent to go to the large tent called high school. Again, we found ourselves being taught new rules. We were now in Act Nine, and we enter- tainers were called Freshmen. Everything was new to us, and it took quite a while to get ad- justed. Davc Ladd and Speed Williams joined us this year. With very much help from our trainers. Mrs. Spear. Mr. Allen, Miss Umstead, Mr. and Mrs. Bass and Miss Wilkins, we com- pleted this act. Act Ten was under the leadership of Mr. Peterson. We were adjusted to high school now. We had several parties during the year. but the most outstanding event was the hayride and weiner roast at the end of our act. Soon we were in Act Eleven. The high light of this act was our Junior-Senior banquet. We gave a special performance, A Little l-loney . We also received our class rings. We attended the state fair and had many parties which will never be forgotten. Our special trainer for the year was Mr. Rice. On September 3, 1952, we began our final act. We were now dignified seniors. We lost Sue Poole who found married life more interesting. The year has been a busy one, but we have tak- en timeout to have parties, picnics, and other gatherings. The highlights of this act have been: the Junior-Senior banquet, senior play, class trip, attending the state fair, publishing Mangum Newsette and recording our performances and good deeds in our annual. As we prepare for our finalperformance--graduation. we find there are twenty-one of us left. Names and pictures of these are recorded on pages 114. 115. 116, and 117 of this book. We fail to remember all the entertainers who have been with us for short periods. We are sorry they could not stay with us to the end, but we trust their future is very bright. Now as our last act draws to a close, we know how very much school and all that goes with it means to us. We will always remember all the joys and sorrows that have come our way. lt has been along journey. but it has seemed very short. To our teachers, who have guided us into the right roads of life, our parents, who have sacrificed and devoted everything possible to make our education the best possible, and to our friends, who have helped our journey to be more pleasant. we wish to express our deepest and greatest appreciation. So we. the class of'53, happily, yet sadly, complete our last act. May all that we have learn- ed while here lead us so that we will be better entertainers in life. We go now to put on our very best show. Farewell to each of you, but never goodbye. Lois Chambers Historian 119 fi, Raleigh, N. C. June 10, 1963 x CLASS PROPH ECY Dear Classmates, In my work as an entertainer, I often meet members of our senior class of '53, After ten years, I am sure you will be interested in the following survey Ihave made: Betty Lou Johnson has become manager of the cafeterias of the Durham County Schools. Clyde Terry is designing airplanes for the Curtis planes. Lula Mae Duke is his secretary and keeps track of his photography papers. Edward Oakley always was a good politican. He is now county manager for the Republican Party. Winston Mangum has taken over a chain of hot dog stands throughout Durham County. Ralph Cates and R. G. Teasley are the best mechanics in the county. Their garage is located just out of Durham on the Roxboro Road. Teeny Hill is teaching home economics in Roxboro High School. Bobby Walker has also become an entertainer with a group which replaced the Briarhoppers. Burma Aiken is the society editor for the Durham Morning Herald. Bruce operates the film projector at the Center Theater. This was the only way he could see all the latest movies. Betsy Jean Lee has become the neatest little housewife you ever saw. I always stop by for a good rneal. Frederick Chambers and Dave Ladd own large adjoining farms in Durham County. Frederick is specializing in small grains and Dave has a dairy farm. Jewell, Joyce. and Lois, always friends at school, are neighbors at Copley's Corner. Each is busy as a homemaker. Lena Mae Burroughs is now on the staff of nurses at Watts Hospital. Ellen Cash has her own studio in Durham. She is also a special consultant for high school annuals. James Everette Wheeler is managing an A 85 P Store in Durham. It has been fun renewing' old friendships. Maybe we can all get together soon. Sincerely, frZ.7?a-.LZ Class Prophet 120 THE LAST WILL Having completed its final performance, The Mangum Big Top Show has properties which must be left under the tent. The following will please accept these properties. use them, and pass them on to future generations: Item I. To our prihcipal.

Soon we will face the world alone, Some to go to college and others to make homes. The many things we tried to learn Will help us when the paths we turn. Good-by classmates of all the grades, Thanks for the happy moments you've made. With heavy hearts we leave Oak Grove, For alone tomorrow we travel new roads.

The students were divided into two classes, some joined the class in later years, ' ' ' l Mr. Bird while others dropped out. Also a new principa came in 1948. We entered high school in 1949, both awed and pleased at the part to be played the next four years. Being the first freshman to enter the new High School building, we found ourselves in the same building in which we had enrolled nine years before. High school life meant changing classes and the privilege of trying to cut class . Sometimes we succeeded. By the time we were sophomores we were busy attending parties,foot- ball and basketball games. Several of our boys were already playing for the Counts. Some of the girls were taking Drivers Education. Everyone survived, even Mr. Hulon the direc- tor. Our Junior year brought with it a new principal, Mr. Bass, new rules, and new ideas. We took a trip to Williamsburg with Mrs. Caffy and Mrs. Thorne as chap- erones. lt was a pleasure being away together for the first time. Other important events of the year included a talent show, receiving our class rings, the presenta- tion of our Junior play The Daffy Dills, which we con- sidered a big success, and the caping of the Seniors. The climax of the year was in May when after weeks of planning and preparation, we honored the Seniors with the Junior-Senior Banquet, with a Hawaiian theme. Our final tribute to the Seniors was a weiner roast at Clearwater Lake. And now our Senior year comes, caps, gowns, and graduation, amid smiles and tears. We will always remember the friendships we have made, the parties, exams, and trips we have had together. We bid farewell, with a note of sadness in our hearts, to our school mates, and to our principal and teachers who have guided us patiently, preparing us for the diffi- culties we face in the future.

We were like a large bunch of unbroken colts, but it didn't take long for Mr. Farrow to tame us down. We worked very hard for the first few years of school and were very happy about graduating to the grammar grades until we ran right into Mrs. Arrants and a geography book about two inches thick. We managed to overcome this obstacle and settle down to learn- ing. We will never forget the many chapters of history, English, and mathematics that the various teachers tried to cram into our heads. Most of us escaped these academic traps and continued to climb the ladder of education step by step. Not a single one of us will ever forget the many class parties and escapades that we went on. We shall treasure the fond memories of our many class plays and activities. Then came that great day when a hundred eager-beavers could hardly wait to get into high, but after the first six weeks most of us wished we were back in the grammar grades. We finally be- came use to the hard work and settled down to pursue our goal. There are many members of the school faculty that we shall never forget. We could never forget Miss Page, Mrs. Arrants and Mrs. Roycroft in the grammar grades who taught us how to be better citizens and get along with other people. In high school we shall always remember Miss Brodgen, Mrs. Newton, Mrs. Coley and Mr. Smith as teachers who took a real interest in us and made us work hard. We remember Mr. Davis and the many interesting class discussions he carried on about students getting married, but most of all we remember him as a great coach who produced winning teams for our school in every sport. We had many swell times presenting our Junior play, Melody Jones, under the direction of Mrs. Brass and Mrs. Glickfield, and our Senior play, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay, under the direction of Mrs. Coley and Mr. Childers. We shall always be thankful to the Juniors for a grand time at our Junior-Senior banquet. We hope that this senior class will make history in the future and continue its record of achievement. Ann Partin Jerry Walker Carl Lee Bass 189 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the Class of l953,having filled our brains to capacity with the knowledge that we have achieved during these past years, are now ready to go out and meet with vim and vigor the many problems which may arise.Before we do so, we would like to will our most prized possessions to the ones we leave behind.

We, The Senior Class gladly leave the Annual QPeriodJ. Azeline Churchill Roy Deaton Testators Mac Baldwin PROPHECY The year is 1960. Seven years have passed since we left Bethesda, our beloved Alma-Mater. The annual homecoming football game is scheduled for tonight, but that is not the most irnpor- tant thing scheduled. The influential class of 1953 has set this night of November 14th for their reunion. Upon arriving at the Washington Duke Hotel Ball Room, we find at the door, Patsy Ed- gerton and Claudette Ellis who managed to leave their secretarial positions in Washington to be on the welcoming committee. Melodious strains of Moonlight Sonata greet us and we see Bar- bara Stallings, the well-known public school music teacher of the Southern Durham County High School seated at the piano. Gathered around are Ann Partin, Barbara Williams, and Jane Jones. These three have successful careers. Ann is now a Christian Education Director, and Jane and Barbara are executive secretaries for the Administrator of the Veteran's Hospital. Mrs. Bob Weaver, who we all once knew as Emma Jean Ingram, is an outstanding leader in New York Soc- ial Circles, and will preside tonight at the punch bowl. Assisting her is Mrs. Bill Lawrence better known by her classmates as Betsy Ann Lloyd, who is now making her home in Raleigh. Nearby, as usual, is Mrs. GenelFletcher, the former Lillie Frances Keith. Chatting with them is Norma Jean Matthews just as elated as ever discussing the latest problems she has as office manager of a large Richmond, Va. business. Willora McDaniel joins the group, but her largest problem now is making elaborate plans for a new home. Recent arrivals to the reunion are Azeline Churchill and Hazel Davis. These two are busy homemakers and secretaries as well. We see that Gene Royster, Joe Ferguson, and Chinnis Lanier finally managed to get here after such a busy week at their filling stations. The corner seems quite interesting as James Hall, Buddy Register, Thomas Ellis, and Charles Woody, Durham's most popular mechanics, discuss their business problems. Joining them are Norman Leathers and Grover Powell. They are in Florida now with the New York Yankees for the regular off -season practice. Look, there's Shirley Hudson and Louise Queen, standing together. Shirley is autographing her new book, Lost Magic for Louise to take back to her first grade students. Bobble Jean Smith, Ruth Rogers, Gladys Bane, Peggy Rogers, and Shir- ley Barbour have all received copies and now are busy writing an account of the reunion for the society editor of the Durham Sun. These girls have really made progress as secretaries and now have some very desirable positions with local firms. We are glad to see some of the girls that decided to work in Durham factories. Last year Nellie Wesley, Emma Lou Hicks, and Evelyn Stone won awards that were presented for efficiency in one of our largest factories. Jerry Walker is now a prominent engineer with a brilliant future. He has been talking to Johnny Hamilton and trying to interest him in this type of work. Roy Deaton, a professor at Yale University and Mac Baldwin, a rich cattle owner are also enjoying this opportunity to talk of old times and new accomplishments. Well, here comes Bethesda's prominent doctor and nurse--Carl Lee Bass and Marie Lynn. lt seems that they are always late as they are kept busy with so many appointments. We also recognized with them Doris Critcher who is now employed by Duke Hospital as X-ray Technician. Looking about, I miss only one person, Eugene Bradley, who is one of General Rid- geway's assistants with the American Forces and unable to be here tonight. Our beloved senior teacher, Mrs. Coley is back with us tonight to make the reunion complete. It's really nice hav- ing all our old classmates together again, but it's nearly time for the kick off, so we will see you at the game.
