When our class entered old Endy Hi, I know the teacher let out a sigh, I don ' t remember, but I ' ll bet she said- Dear, I ' d feel better if I were dead . I ' ve never seen such a noisy class Gee, I don ' t know how long I ' ll last. It isn ' t fair for a good teacher To have to turn into a preacher. ' ' Though many teachers have been disgusted, And many times we ' ve been mistrusted. When many times our hopes would drop We usually came out on top. Our teachers thought we were so curious That sometimes we would make them furious. We ' ve always been a lively bunch We ' ve also had a great big hunch, A hunch that we would graduate When at this school we had proved our fate. We knew our pleasure couldn ' t last. But we have memories of the past. As now the time has come to part We ' ll all keep room within our hearts, Room for memories of old friends Memories of good times with them. We the class of ' 52 Now express our thanks to you. Our thanks that now a race we ' ve won Go out to each and everyone. Jeanette Eudy

As I looked into the land of the future, I could see moving among the dim shadows of tht people yet to be, the familiar shapes of those fair and radiant beings who were once m y aassmates, ;ow changed and transformed into citizens o the world outside even Ts they had long hoped to be, and it came to pass that the veil before mine eyes grew yet more and Lore thin through the intensity of my vision and behold, I could see them even as if the intervening years were not at all. I cJild see our beloved president; even as today, I could see him m all his ma - iestic bearing and his words were heeded by that day and generation even as we today {he class of fgBZ, have heeded unto them. For his ambition has led him ever upward and onward until he is Governor of this, his own state. Advising Harold is Nellie Efird, the most dependable girl of our class. And I also happened to see T. J. Bur ris who took Billy Graham ' s place as a world renouned evangelist I saw that I, Zarry Efird, had taken Sid Stone ' s place on the Milton Berle show. In this vision, I saw a circus tent and swinging from one trapeze to another, was Ed- ward Harris. He had, indeed, become the man on the trapeze. In a nearby television studio. I saw Jack Lowder surrounded by little children. Jack was busy strumming on his guitar and singing Home On The Range . The scene changed and inside a theatre was Jerrell Morton ushering people m to see the great movie star, Jimmy Lambert, playing the part of Rudolph Valentino. We thought we would never see Jerrell so far from Terrell, but Terrell is having the time of his life as a naval officer in Hawaii where all the good looking girls are. Inside a beauty parlor, we see Johnny Poplin, a world famous beautician, talking to Hilda Rose Burleson and Nell Mullis. Johnny has complete charge over their beauty needs Hilda Rose is a John Powers ' model and Nell Mullis is a hostess at the Stork Club so both need to look their best at all times. Lilly Ann Lambert is a masseusse in Johnny ' s beauty parlor and she keeps Hilda Rose ' s and Nell ' s figure in perfect con- ' the vision I saw Artha Ann Dick, a buyer for Gimball ' s in New York City. She goes to France twice a year to buy clothes for Jeanette Eudy, who is a singer with Kay Kaiser ' s Band. While Artha Ann is in France, she calls on Carolyn Morgan, who finally learned French and is acting as an interpreter to American Tourists in 1 ranee. In New York City, I also saw Earl Speight, who is a proof reader for Double Day Doran Book Company. Earl was showing Kenneth Whitley the sites of New York. Kenneth, by the way, has obtained his life long ambition to be a truck driver. I saw Durant Whitley in Hollywood where he has become a prominent lawyer. He is legal advisor to Selma Rogers, who is a second Betty Hutton, and Carol West- brook, who is only a movie extra. In Hollywood on the corner of Hollywood Vine, I saw three girls who were on their vacation. While listening to their conversation, I learned that Betty Herrin was a concert pianist. I also found out that Jane Lambert was a librarian for the National Grange and that Marie Burris was very much contented with her job as teacher of Endy High School. , ' Larry Efird
