IN TODAY, ALREj DY WALKS TOISORRO!: To the members of the Board of Education, to the teachers ef Floalng- ton High School, to the parents, neighbors, and schoolmates, X make ny hew as eo-valedictorian of the class of 1957- Now the moment has arrived to wish you farewell, and to speed the graduating class on its path to fame and fortune. It is said that every rose has its thorn, every joy has its under- current of sorrow. Certain it is that the class of 1957 finds the plesure of achievement dimmed by the severing of school and class friend- ships. To the shortest path, to the longest lane, there canes an end; in- evitable change brings the sweet sad words of farewell. Ue have come to the first harbor in the Jomey of life—graduation from high school. What will the next Journey hold in store for us? Where will the next harbor be? With the passing of the months the problem has grown nearer and bigger. We have been conscious of its shadow at our side even while we went about our everyday affairs. Wa have realized that there were decisions to be made, important decisions that would have their influence on us all the rest of our lives and we tried to make those decisions with the realisation that we the graduates of today will be the leaders of tomorrow. For seme of us there is more education, a continuation of the days we have known in the paat. For others there is a change that must be made from high school phaee of life to the actual. And each one of us has been thinking and thinking. Vtiat is best for us. In which course lies happi- ness, success, and well-being. But whatever our final decision may be, of one thing we are sura; the days we are leaving behind ue are some of the happiest we shall ever know. The hours we have spent with sympathetic teachers and close friends have yeilded a store ef memories that will never be forgotten as long as we liva. But so it will always be. Nothing remains; all things pass. The best and only thing to do is to make the mest of each part of life as it pre- sents itself to eur attention, and that we feel, is exactly rtiat we have done with our school career. We have made the most af it. We have worked, studied, thrived, and accomplished. And so, though we regret that it must pass yet we know it has all bean worth while. With that conclusion wo turn to the future. What possibilitiea fer the imagination the furure holds, What will it bring? It is a question that each one of us asking with eagerness, but it is also one that must content itself with an indefinite answer. The most hopeful answer that might be made is that the future will bring just what we take to it. If we advance to meet the new life before us with the qualities ef ceurage, determination, and honesty, we shall recline full value for the same, We shall be repaid with the fruits of courage, determination, and honesty. If on the other hand we lag and dolly, we shall find the fruits - «ur as lemons and puckery as persimmons. I think, there- .salf while wo simply In today. Already Waites Tomorrow (continued) And now it is ti nr.o to say farewell� Now we must part from schoolmates of many years stardii ?, from neighbors, from teachers, and in 3omr. cases from parents. Now we shall scatter to the four comers of the world, to use a slightly exaggerated figure of speech, and a new class will fill up the empty places we are leaving behind. But even though we become but names and memories in school history, we know that we have been a honor to our Alma Mater, that she has reason to be proud of us. We the members of the graduating class of 1957, wish to express our sincere gratitude and appreciation to our parents for their sacrifice, to the faculty for their cooperation with us, and to the Board of Education for making possible the completion of our new addition. We know you have done this through the realization and the foresight that it is from the visions of yough that como3 the inspiration to make tomorrow better than today. For in Today, Already Walks Tomorrow. Nancy Johnson Co-Valedictorian THE CHALLENGES OF GRADUATION It is my privilege and honor to give these, our last and final words of farewell, for this graduating class of 1957 to you, friends, relatives, students, guests, and members of the faculty. Twelve years ago when we entered the classrooms of school for the first time this was only a dream but now it is a reality. From that first experience of school life we have strived to obtain this goal and now that it has been attained we find ourselves face to face with the challenges of graduation. Of course, from the time of our birth, we have been facing challenges every day of our life. We have been faced with challenges that did not appear to be such because they seemed to be the natural thing to do such as walking and talking. But now, at this moment, with our high school education, a more important challenge, successfully accomplished, we find ourselves facing a climax of our life. Can we face with courage, this climax? For new we are not the high school students that we were a few moments ago but we have commenced a new chapter of our life—our live on our own. Will we be able to accomplish this challenge as successfully as we have our present one? For we must remember tonight we are the cen- ter of attention to all but tomorrow we may be forgotten. Just another person trying to attain success out in the world. Now that we have achieved our high school diploma we are facing a decisive question of great importance. How will we face the challenges ef graduation? Do we have the courage to accept the challenge that is pro- posed to us by our high school diploma? Can we be as successful out on our own as we were during our high school years while under the guidiance of the facility? Have we accomplished enough knowledge, understanding, ’ ’'- n«nce to step out into the world, completely sure that we ■ «i n we find it a dif- The Challenges of Graduation (continued) Many of us have a complete outline of eur next few years and have thus made the first achiex'emer.t of our commencement into the world. Some have chosen marriage, a earner in the Armed Service, college and then a career, but some are still wondering how they can accept and accomplish the problems ti.at are now facing them- For twelve years, six of those twelve being spend here in this building, we have been trained to accept the responsibilities of adults. We have learn- ed, through our childish pranks, many things that adults should not do and have thus accomplished much. But does this high school training insure us success in the world? No, it is only a helper but it is one that cannot be overlooked for this training and eur home life have fixed in our minds the responsibilities of adults that is necessary to begin our adult life. We have now obtained the knowledge that is offered to us by this insti- tution of learning and we go forth to accept the responsibilities that now face us. To our parents we offer our deepest thanks and appreciation for the guidiance they have given us during our adolesence. To the faculty we sin- cerely give our thanks for their patience and understanding. For without this special guidiance we could not have advanced this far and we would net now be facing the challenges of graduation. And now as we go forth we will remember our teachings and thus we will make you as proud of us as you are now. Jacqueline Stewart Co-Valedictorian SUCCESS IN LIFE It is my privilege and honor as salutaterlan of the 1957 graduating class, to represent them and to extend the words of welcome to our friends, our schoolmates, our faculty, our community and most of all to our parents, who have guided us and helped us these past years. We wish to thank all of them for giving us the opportunities and pleasures, we have enjoyed during the years of our high school. To us who now graduate from high school, our life seems as a challenge, which has yet to begin. It is the challenge for our role as a successful adult. During our school days we had the protection security and safety of our own homes and loved ones. We have always had the guidiance of our parents with us and behind us. We have had happy times with our friends our friends and classmates. And last, but not least, the guiding of fine teachers. Thus far we have been free from responsibility and worry. Free with the world. As the challenger, at the beginning of an answer thinks and plans for that answer, so must we, now take the time to think and plan for the challenge that lies ahead for us in the oncoming future. We must plan our future knowing that soon we will have our own responsibility, and net be the responsibility of our parents. SUCCESS IN LIFE (Continued) Ab the members cf the graduating class come to the hour cf Commence- ment, we realize that scon we will enter into cur ml j as an adulu. Also we realize that we too, have a great task bei'ere u j A or2't cf becoming one of the counties 3 million American citizens, tr.au 1 Lvs cri work day by day doing their job as best they can. In tho pr.f-t. vn were dependort upon each other. In the future, we will have only ouisilver to depend upon. We, the members of the 1957 Senior Class, now lea e Fleminrton High School. We are leaving a most wonderful part of our life behind ue. We take with us all the memories and past e:-'.perfences of cur h .f.h school daj-s. And I'm sure the future holds great promise for the success cf us all. Again, may I bid Welcome to you all.

In Sept. 1951, we came from north, south, east and west to begin our first year at Flemington Jr. High School, There were 56 students entering into Flemington as 7th graders and (boy did tne 8th graders think we were green), 'jfe wer3 all a little scared at first and inocantly traveled the halls the first fev; days� but after we get acquainted with the faulty, the other students and the building itself that all changed We were very glad to lenru that Vr?n Oardot and. Corbin ware cur class sponsors, hut Mr� Corbin ’-rent into service and Mrs . K-imp .cry: replaced him for a while and then Mi . hwseker replaced Mrs, Kurphoryj ptn-3i.u-ent.ly, but by that time wo wore sc confused in our school wox-k that we c'.idnft know A fron Z‘' about it, but Ur. Swecker soon straightened us out ar.d we got back in tne familiar routine of school work. One big event of the year was our assembly program, which was our first performance in front of a large group. Another highlight of the year was our class party. We had a weiner roast on the Athletis Field. I think that was one night that everone got filled with hotdogs. When time for the inter-class tournments rolled around, we choose black and white for our class colors and Pari hers for our name. In the class tournments both our boys and girls team lost, (I think we needed a few of the players from the 7th grade of 5?). We vren for best cheer- leaders in Jr. High and we were very proud of our three cheerleaders who were Nancy Johnson, Charlene Blake, and Pauline Devart. At the close of our first year at Flemington Jr. High, we were all eagerly waiting for our return when we would be in the 8th grad® . 1952-1953 (8th Grade) Dear Diary: In Sept. 1952, we returned to Flemington to begin our second year in Junior High School., We had 50 students enrolled on our class roll, six less than had started with us on our adventure in the 7th grade. Our sponsors this year were Mrs- Johnson and Mr. Hal Findley.' (boy did we live rough those nine months), but we enjoyed every minute of it especially our class party. One highlight of the year was our assembly program, which wae held in honor of Halloween, Oct, 31« We tried to frighten everyone with our goast and Subline and come to think of it we 'did. In the inter-class tournments, our girls were really soma basketball players. They defeated the ,'th and 10th grade girls, but our boys were defeated the first evening. This year in the tournments our class won fr best cheering section in Jr, High. • — n r' summer vacation and next year we - —“ — n .Senior Dear Diary: -'-7. 3- .9 5.’:. .Fresh.-jen) It is Sopt. 1 ? 3j v;e finslly were beginning our first year in Senior High School vi , ■ t;� e -woil'vrn- of 25 girl.- and 1 boys, .Taking a total of 44 saioe.nts. Naturally this being our first year in high school, we thought v s ere big sJiots, but our class sponsors , lirs. Piccolo and ..iss ithers soon let us know eicactly -..'here we atooc and who was boss. During our freshmen year we hand two honors bestoyed on four members of our class. Lloyd Pu’cnok ;as crovnod king of Florin ton High School and our cheerleaders, frar2 en.e Blake, Nancy Johnson, Jerry Riffle an. Pauline Devart v cr. for b?.st uhs rls?.d r in Senior Kiri-. ;4i ti.e class tournments, which wus really a honor, because there was rea.-.iy r.o-,r. stiff competition. In the class tournments our girls team had quite a successful year but our boys got behind somehow. Any.ray v e had a lot of fun. Another event that was a lot of fun .as our class party and still another was our assembly program but all our first year in high school -as not full of fun and laughter, for during this year we lost one of oui beloved classmates, Charles Devart. Our hearts ached at this loss, but his memory shall abe in each of our hearts forever. 1954-1955 (Sophomore) Dear Diary: T.:e began our second year in Flemington Senior High in Sept. 1954. e soon learned that '«e ould have to be on our toes this year. ’«Ihy . ill , lirs. Talbot and id . J©hn Findley were our class sponsors. Now can you see why . There were 41 blossoming students at the beginning of the year we had lost uhree of our classmates since our freshmen year, but to our regret we lost quite a few of them before our second year of high school was completed. The activities of this year consisted of a Stationary Campain and various other campains to raise money for our trip to ’ ashing«.on, D.C. in our Senior year. Our assemby program as another great activity of they year. It was a great success due to 10055 of the class participting. In it we crowned a queen of the Sophomore Class, this viac the first time for a class to crovm a queen. Another high spot in our activitys was our class partys, we had two this year. One party was given to i’rs. Talbott's home roon, by ilr. Findley's homeroom for winning a contest between the two rooms. Then the whole class had a dance in they gym. In the class tournments our teams wern't beaten to bad but just the same they were beaten. Our cheerleaders, Jerry Firfle, Charlene Blake, Nancy Johnson and Pauline Devart won for best cheerleaders in e„„•; wirrh arain. 1956-1957 (con't) The first event of our Senior year was the Junior -Senior Banquet held on May A. The Junior Class followed the pattern that originated with our class last year by having the Banquet one night and the prom another. The Banquet was held in the band room, which was beautifully decorat- • with branches of Dogwood and candle light. The speaker for the evening wa; Mr. T. B. Cain, president of the West Virginia Butin s.3 Coales . 1 hu.Ic everyone enjoyed the speaker and the banquet ar.d we all ha l a v.’oreeriul time. Next on our very busy Senior schedule was our annu ‘ 3 trip to Washington D. C. This year due to an efficient amount of funds our class got V spend an extra day in Washington D. C. The extra day added, mere freoitment to tho trip and we could hardly wait for the big day to arrive. Finally May d. was here and at 9:15 in the morning Mrs. Delvera Johnson and Mrs. harry Hayes, chaperones for the girls and Mr. Edward Whitescarver, chaperone for the coys finally got us on the bus that we had chartered and headed for Washington. We arrived in Washington at 5 o'clock the evening of May 8th and be- lieve it or not but we went sightseeing that night. We all had a wonderful time and we saw many interesting and fascinating sites, but on May 12th at 8:00 we were glad to return home. The third high spot on our schedule was the Junior-Senior Prom, everyone was thrilled when May 18 finally rolled around. The gym was beautifully de- corated and the theme was A Evening In Paris . The grand march added a great deal to the prom and Nancy Johnson was chosen queen of the Senior Class and Izetta Kelley was chosen Maid of Honor of the Junior Class. I am sure both the Juniors and Seniors will remember the prom of 1957 for a long time. We are very fortunate this year in having three girls holding the high honors of our class. Our valedictorians are Jacqueline Stewart and Nancy Johnson. Our salutatorian is Phyllis Collins. Congratulations girls, we are proud of you. Winning the citizenship awards were, Lloyd Putzed-winner of the American Legion Citizenship Award for the boys. Nancy John3on-American Legion Citizen ship Award for the girls. Jacqueline Stev art-winner of the V. F. W. citizenship award. It was a sad night. May 26, 1957, when our Senior Sermon finally rolled around. Our speaker for the evening was the Rev. Steyer from Grafton, West Virginia. We all enjoyed bis talk very much. May 28, 1957 our commencement exercises were held. This was indeed a joyful, but ?ad night. The years have gone by rapidly leaving us with only memories of our school daps. In leaving Fleming-ten High School we wish to thank the faculty for their guidance and understanding. Our president, Llcyd Putzek for being our representative and our classmrtss for th 'r cooperation, we shall remember our days at Flemington High Fchoox wita pleasure Shirley Johnson Class Historian BEST DRESSED MOST POPULAR MOST LOVABLE 8z,ST ATHELETES QUIETEST MOST HUMOROUS I JUNIORS Junior Class History Well, here we are again, back for another year, surprised to see Mrs. Piccolo and Mr. Shields greeting us at the door.

But to our consternation we were in- formed very quickly that the word sophomore means conceited, pretentious, crude, and ignorant-. rihat seemed to take the wind out of our sails. We had our first class meeting early in the year for the purpose of «lecting our class officers and class cheerleaders. Chosen were the follow- ing: President: Jerry Simon Vice President: Leonard Phelps Secretary: Phyllis Longvell Treasurers: Sandra Singleton and Joan Bensky Cheerleaders: Joan Cleavenger and Sandra Singleton Our sponsors were Mrs. Talbott, Boom 11, and Mr. John Findley, Room 3. The annual dues contest was won by Room 11 and as a reward Room 3 were hosts at a special class party.
