Not pictured: BOBBY RAY EAsoN HISTUHY At this time it is very htting that the senior class of 1951 record the events preceding and including this closing year. 1 shall now under- take to record them briefly. ln 1947, sixty-five girls and boys entered high school. We were under the guidance of Mrs. Louise Winstead and Mr. Fussell. lean Batts was president in Mr. 1-7ussell's home room and Ernest Finch was president in Mrs. Winstead's room. We worked hard that year. Some passed and some didn't. ln our sophomore year we were under the guidance of Mr. Fussell. Linwood Braswell was our president. We were placed under the guidance of Mr. Fussell again in our junior year. Ellen Britt was elected our class president. Boyl we had fun that year-selecting class rings, ioining the Beta Club, publishing the Bear Hi lozrrrfzalf' and greatest of all, having the lunior-Senior Ban- quet and prom. The lunior-Senior Banquet was held April 7, 1950, at the China Chipper. We shall never forget what hard work we did or what a beauti- ful place the China Chipper turned out to be. At the end of the vear, averages showed Lin- wood Braswell to be' the chief marshal. Ellen Britt, Buby Dawes, Geraldine Owens, Bobbv Proctor, and Milton Winstead were the other marshals. None of us will ever forget the candle light ceremony. When we returned to school as seniors, we were placed under the guidance of Mrs. Simp- son. We elected Boyd Dwens as our class presi- dent. Later we sponsored the Curtis Magazine subscription contest. The class sold 331,393.00 worth of magazines. Linwood Braswell received a watch and loyce Taylor received 35.00 in magazine subscriptions for reaching the high total. The class received a Benjamin Franklin Plaque. Undertaking to publish the BEAR TRAP was not an easy job. We feel, however, that we have succeeded. By this time we, the seniors of 1951, will have presented a senior play, will have taken our trip to Vlfashington, and will have attended the ,lunior-Senior Banquet. As our commencement draws near, we feel that our high school days have been memorable ones-full of work and play. To those who have helped make those happy memories, 1, on be- half of the Senior Class, take this opportunitv to express our appreciation. ELIZABETH LANGLEY 4 A
