Robert Rhew, President; Bill Taylor, Treasurer; Judy Atkins, Vice-President; Gail Singletary, Sec- retary. CLASS OF 1964 Another year — our last year — and we leave behind a stream of memories that will last us a lifetime. The 1964 Senior Class is without doubt one of the most outstanding ones to pass through the halls of D.H.S. Robert Rhew, our lofty Senior Class President, served us fellow-classmen well with the help of Judy Atkins, our Vice-President. Gail Singletary wrote a mile a minute as she recorded the bus- iness of the senior-class meetings. Bill Taylor, our Treasurer, led the seniors to a financial victory as we ran away with the honors in the Budget Drive. Our worthy advisors, Mrs. Ridenhour and Mrs. Pen- ny, were always ready and willing to help with any problems. Fall Festival proved to be one of the most color- ful and fascinating ones Durham High School had ever seen. The night before our Homecoming game. Brother Massey and Sister Rudin led our famous Rejuvenation to boost school spirit with a sermon Ode to School Spirit which prepared the way for a successful and spirit-filled Red and White Day. Later we swooped down upon the Wilson Cyclones as our football team, led by senior co-captains Lin- wood Grady and Howard Hackney, dealt those final blows which led us to victory. Halftime brought the crowning of our lovely senior Homecoming Queen, Nita Wilkinson, who reigned over the re- maining Fall Festival activities. We were surely tired but proud after that week ! We superiors really did distinguish ourselves on Senior Day with all the senior girls in their Sunday best and the senior boys looking so neat and stately in their suits and ties. Basketball season for the year ' 64 was a winner . Senior Captain Wayne Mallard led our team to unlimited victories as eight out of twelve of our D.H.S. cheerleaders (all seniors) cheered the team on. Perhaps the most important event sponsored by the Senior Class was the Senior Play — Inherit the Wind. Sets were made, tickets were sold, pub- licity distributed, rehearsals staged, and then — the play — and what a success! The seniors really out- did themselves this time. With a group of determined Seniors, the Student Council worked hard throughout the year improv- ing D.H.S. in every form, way or manner known. A new committee was even organizied — the Ameri- can Field Service Committee — and though we were unable to have a foreign student this year, plans were made to have one next year. What an unselfish class we have ! College Night found many of us discussing our problems and future plans with professors and ex- perienced people in various occupations. This gave many of us the realization that we were soon to leave D.H.S. and go out into the world on our own. The Junior-Senior, the measuring for caps and gowns, the ordering of calling cards and gradu- ation announcements, the receiving of the Messen- ger and the last issue of the Hi-Rocket ... all these were soon to be among our memories. Then came graduation . . . Class Day, Gradu- ation Night, grey robes and long tassels, small white certificates tied with white bows, solemn sen- iors. For a moment, we looked fondly behind us then, with diploma in hand, we march on toward newer and higher goals.
