As we step up to take over full command of the senior class, we pause and turn back in our fond memories to the beginning of our high school days. We began in the ninth grade under the competent leadership of our prmcipal, Mr. Swaringen This year in the midst of the reno vation of our school, it was very diffi- cult to keep our minds on our studies. We were all thrilled with our new cafeteria and near the end of the year, were all honored at being given the opportunity to serve at several banquets in it. This year, a few hopefuls in the freshman class made our debut in the athletic world. The girli. basketball team was coached by Mrs. McSwam, and Mr. Burleson coached the boys. In the tenth grade, we made up for all the time lost in the ninth. Our teacher was Mr. Singleton, who was a newcomer from college. We taught him a great deal that year. We had a glee club under the direction of Mrs. Bain Jones. The girls had a Home Economics Department with Mrs. Warren Coble, teacher; while Mr. Corn was teacher in the new Agriculture Department for the boys. This year all the girls became well trained waitresses because we had an opportunity to serve at a banquet about every month. In our glee club, we had a very memorable Christmas program with the entire glee club participating. We competed in the music contest at Catawba College and received an excellent rating. Under Mr. Singleton ' s direction, we presented a one act comedy entitled The Little Red School House , which brought out a great deal of hidden talent. In the eleventh grade, under Mrs. Claud Grigg ' s supervision, we started the year with a working spirit. We sold magazines and stationery for our Junior -Senior Banquet expenses. We gave a Junior Play entitled A Ready Made Family coached by our beloved teacher, Mrs. Grigg. We continued serving at banquets. Near the end of the year, we gave the seniors a banquet in the school cafeteria. We worked long and hard preparing for it and received our rewards when the seniors appeared to enjoy t he banquet so much. Our theme was portrayed on a South Sea Island. We de- corated appropriately with purple streamers and balloons overhead. As a background, Jane Lambert and Hilda Burleson painted a South Sea Island scene across the back wall. The twelve waitresses, dressed in South Seas costumes, served a delicious tropical dinner. They entertained throughout the evening with several colorful and graceful dances. They were accompanied at various times by Kenneth Whitley, sing- ing Somewhere Over The Rainbow ; and in a comical act, Abadaba Honeymoon , with Gary King, Durant Whitley, and Hilda Burleson. The Albemarle High Scnool Band furnished the music for the evening. The Junior Class opened the program by singing Hawaiian Sunset . Jeanette Eudy and Hilda Burleson kept the mood by sing- ing Blue Hawaii . Then several senior performances were presented. Betty All - man accompanied by the Senior Quartet, Glendale Burleson, Max Burris, Paul West- brook, and Carroll Teeter, sang Never Been Kissed . The quartet sang to four of our innocent- looking juniors, The Coconut Song . Glendale Burleson and Peggy Efird sang a duet entitled, Maggie Blues . Then the entire senior class sang Beau- tiful Brown Eyes , dedicating it to Mr. Singleton. Truly, it is one of our most cher- ished memories. Now, all too suddenly, we find ourselves filling the position of seniors. It is hard to realize that in a few months, we shall be leaving as we have seen seniors do for the last twelve years, this time feeling the same pangs of sorrow as of those who too, have called the school home for twelve years. We remember last year ' s graduation that we took part in. Jack Lowder, Harold Burris, Jane Lambert, Betty Herrin, and Hilda Burleson were marshalls. On graduation night, the junior class held daisy chains for the seniors as they entered and left the auditorium. We try desperately to grasp whatever we may in our departure, because we realize that no longer shall we swell with pride when we say we are a student at Edny High School, and have the same loyal spirit as we did in our school days. Yes, we stop to think back now as we are leaving, as we pass or hear our school mentioned, and think back as we develop into mature adults and always in the same fond memories of our school days.
