SENIOR MEMORIES At last the day had arrived! Although we dignified seniors had very much enjoyed our last summer be- fore we faced the cold world alone, we were secretly glad to be starting school, It is thrilling enough just to be a Senior but to think that we would be the first group to graduate from our beautiful new school made us even prouder. A new experience to us was the handsome gray lockers that lined the halls, and we couldn’t wait until they were assigned to us and the combinations tried. This year we had many new experiences to share. Football practice had started before school opened and we were anxiously awaiting our first game. There was no cause for anxiety because our Eagles finished the season with four triumphs to only three losses. At our last game, Muriel Motley, ‘‘our very pretty Se- nior’’, was crowned ‘‘Miss F.C.H.S. of 1950. ’ And how glad we were to see our Student Body President, Billy Cooper, who just that morning had returned from the hospital, present the roses to the Queen! With all the new things, however, there was still the old habit of the same old gangs going to the Steak House after school. The ‘‘something new’’ that we lost, which was reflected in the sad faces of the girls was Richard Brown , who got his greeting from Uncle Sam after only a few months of teaching. One of our class wasn't satisfied just to get that diamond on her thitd finger left hand. She went and tied the knot before she could graduate. Although the months had passed rapidly, we were glad to see the Christmas holiday roll around for the last time in our high school life. After the holiday, we were getting ready for mid-term exams and also the basketball games were just getting well under way. What we lacked in winning the games, I’m sure the players and cheerleaders made up for in fun. I know they'll never forget those trips on the crowded bus. Many of us had a gay time at the Beta Club Convention that was held in Roanoke in March. Those Betas are noted for being smart but they aren't ‘squares’ either. Old but ever new, a custom of the school, but always new to the class in whose honor itis given: The Junior-- Senior Party, Seniors, all together for probably the last time, enjoying their last party given by the on-coming Se- niors. And then comes the biggest mo- ment to every Senior class. Gra- duation! The seating, the program, the theater decorated just for us, and, last of all---the scroll that means The End.
