Young, but sincere, Freshman officers Harvey Settle, Charles Walters, Buddy Far¬ rell, and Eddie Carter led the future Class of ’56. Almost to the top and quite sophisticated, the Junior Class elected Rita Caudle, Carole Brown, Chris Glenn, and Buddy Farrell to lead them in their numerous projects. 1 Still growing up, but with determination, officers Charles Walters, Chris Glenn, Ab- bye Davis, and Carole Brown handled the business matters of the Class in ’53 and ’54.
