Cfada iaforg 1953-1957! Wonderful years! Glorious years! With all the tears, heartaches, and disappointments, they were the happiest and most memorable years of our lives. Years that molded our lives for the future. Q September 1953---weren't we green and silly? Remember when we ran over the monitors in the hall, sat in the wrong place in chapel, and didn't know what in the world x meant in algebra? That year we were nonchalant and carefree. I Our Sophomore year---the class was really represented in basketball and baseball and doing swell. That was the year we went to William's Lake for our class picnic and forgot the hot dogs. - - Our Junior year was hilarious as are all junior years in high school. To begin with, we topped all magazine sales that any class had reached heretofore. For that we received a bronze plaque. The year was filled with money-making propositions. Those days in the cotton patch were fun. Remember when we sold tobacco? Staging Our Miss Brooks was unforgettable. Colonial Williamsburg was magnificient. The girls' basketball team made a record for themselves that year by winning the County Championship. The Junior- Senior was the highlight of our junior year. Remember the fun we had decorating the Country Club, using a Gypsy theme? The important day finally came when we ordered our class rings. Then we were Seniors. A lifetime of waiting, and then all of a sudden you realize , that time and precious moments have slipped through your fingers. Still, with the thoughts of parting, it was a happy time to remember. How about everybody standing up for us in chapel? We picked cotton again and spent hours on the annual. The day we received our class rings everybody was so proud of themselves. The memory of our senior play will always linger and never, will we forget being the guests of honor at the Junior-Senior. Then the day came all too soon. Was it awe or achievement that we felt? The caps and gowns are hung away--all seventy-four of them and ahead of us lies the future. ---Barbara Barefoot 12,
