The history of our class begins way back in September, 1940, when our 80 members wended their trembling way to their first classroom and fearfully awaited the guillotine or whatever else all those big people” had in store for them. Gradually though, the newness wore off and accu- rate spitballs and sticky fingers began to give the teachers nightmares, while “reading, writin’ and rithmetic” plagued the innocent sleep of our students. It was hard at first, for temper tan- trums had no place in busy school life and mother’s apron strings were left at home. The fact remains, they did learn to get along on their own and they did begin to master those things out- lined in their primary studies. Little by little they learned numbers, and letters and how to say “yes. Sir” and “no, Sir”; “yes. Mam” and “no, Mam . They learned to accept and regard the rights of others and how not to cry when they thought their own rights had been molested; they learned the meaning of “give as well as take”. Step by step individuals and the class advanced grade by grade. One teacher taught them to write with letters straight up and down, while the next said, No, they must be slanted.” However, they managed to absorb and forget enough of what they learned to pass to the next grade requirements. The students of this class have climbed for twelve long, weary years or more, sometimes drifting with the tide and sometimes kicking up a little foam of their own. Even at the beginning of our education, loving parents had a difficult time with horrible stomachaches on Monday morn- ings or just before tests; and I’m sure we've all had our fifty gallons of Castor Oil. Never will we forget the delightful trips to the woodshed with exasperated papas after bringing home our patriotic report cards of Red, White, and Blue. We had our ups” and we had our downs”, but always we kept our eyes focused on the long awaited goal-COMMENCEMENT. Yet, stay with it our members did and our twelve preparatory years have given us enough wis- dom to guide our years to come. Our future is still uncertain, we are still bewildered, but we are young and we are hopeful. The personnel of the class has changed considerably from what it was during those early primary years. We Americans are a restless people moving hither and yon. Some of those who en- tered our school twelve or thirteen years ago have gone on to other towns and other schools. Some left our school during later years for one cause or another before completing the work. While some have dropped from the ranks, others have joined forces with us and our class of 1952 now numbers fifty-one. Our school days have been happy days filled with fun and frolic as well as worry and work. The members of this class have had many pleasures in school and out as the years have flown by. We will profit by our many experiences together and companionship one with another. We have kept our standards high as we will continue to do and we will miss the comradeship of our fellow students. The puzzle of our school life is finally falling into place. At last we see a glimmer of light. There was a reason, after all, for our sitting on hard seats and standing in dreaded comers, and being guided, encouraged, and even driven to our tasks by our parents, teachers, and prin- cipal. Today we are new; tomorrow we will be history and our history must be made by upstanding citizens as we have been moulded. We now wish to pay tribute to our teachers for their wise counsel and helpful hands through- out their many patient years. They have been very understandingwhen we ourselves did not under- stand. They have led us into rich experiences and we fully appreciate the many contributions our teachers have made to our class as a whole and to its individual members. We now take our hats off to our beloved teachers for their thoughtfulness and generosity. We are also indebted to our principal, for his strong guidance when we balked or seemed to stray. Mr. Shanks, we thank you. There is one debt we cannot hope to ever fully pay and that is the debt of gratitude to our loving parents. Without their efforts and years of work and worry our dream of Commencement would have been impossible. They have doubtless gained many grey hairs and lost many night’s sleep and now that we have reached the long desired day - Commencement - our goal will be liv- ing up to their great expectations of us as true sons and daughters. As we close our history and place it on the shelves of Gadsden High we turn to open new pages with visions of a progressive future. What we have done is done. The curtain now falls on the class of 1 952. 6 Let’s Follow the Yellow-Brick Road SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS 8 S. L.

When I ask the reason, a newspaper is flashed before me with huge headlines - “Civil War Fought Again-South Victoriously Defeats the North - President Calvin Curry takes over in the capital of the United States of the South, Quincy, Florida.” Upon inquiring I find that President Curry, with the help of his very intelligent private sec- retary, Mory Lou Kornegay, is doing a wonderful job of organizing the government. Speaking of public officials, it seems that Otto Roberts is City Manager an J Anita Yawn is his private secretary. On the Defense Scene, Pat Creamer is a captain in the Jet Air Force of the South and Harold Sheffield is a General in the Southern Army. The scene now focuses to the businesses in the capital of the South, Quincy, and I see a huge service station owned by the service station tycoon, Dewitt (Vans. Then I see a large new Theater, “The Stem” managed by Quinton Paul who is now the mana- er of Enterstate Enterprises in Quincy, where at the present time they are featuring the famous new discovery, Winston McLendon, who has taken Gene Kelly’s place. Next I see a large funeral home, the biggest in the South owned by Bert Morgan. Next door is the big Story Electric run by Sonny Story, who is now married to that cute Boots” Edwards, he went with in high school. And “Boots” cousin Delores Shepard is now hap- pily married to, none other than, Admiral Frank Lines. The scene now flashes to the offices of the Gadsden County Times, the largest newspaper in the South, where Montrose Moody is the famous comic strip editor. WOWIM What was THAT??? Oh, it was just Amos Glisson driving by in his brand new 1972 Cadillac; “Moose” is now part owner of Watson Sikes Meat Market. Mildred Pate now owns and operates the famous dress shop the “Famous” while Joyce Ann Hanna owns a chain of famous “Hanna” grocery stores. Speaking of grocery stores, Wayne Bevis has recently opened the “Bevis, Jr. Superette” in the thriving metropolis of Gretna. Also near Gretna is a huge tobacco farm owned by the famous Baxter Swing, who is the own- er of Swing’s Rope Cigars, and in his past time Baxter models for General Motors as the famous Chief Pontiac. The scene shifts to Lake Talquin which is now owned by the famous S.L.Presnell who has made a fortune in the catfish business. Now I see Joe’s service station where Jimmy McPherson and Louis Powell bought out Joe Chesser and are doing what they always planned to do- Nothing. Speaking of famous personalities, William Hanna now holds the celebrated position of night watchman at the Stock Pavillion and Bill Lowery finally went to work — he is now the most famous bootlegger in the South. Well, well, there’s Glenn Darsey who after twenty years is still trying to find a woman who will marry him. It seems that the brilliant Jerry Owens has finally succeeded in disproving Einstein’s theory of Relativity. Hollywood has been taken by storm by the second Alan Ladd, the handsome playboy Bobby Holley. Josie Sodec is the most famous Certified Public Accountant in the South and is now on her second million. The famous designer, Shirley Jones, has recently opened a large dress shop in Quincy, sel- ling her designs exclusively. The great artist, Jimmy Kimbrel, has recently opened his art display at the famous Gallery in New York. After twenty years Betty Willmon is still searching for her ideal millionaire, pardon me, her ideal man. While at our dear ole G.H.S. Jean Ford has taken Miss Crowe's place teaching gymn and Mary Jo Fain now holds the famous position as the first woman band director in the history of the school. The big cattleman, Spence McCall has recently had his huge ranch surveyed by the most fa- mous surveyor in the South, Peter Webb. Speaking of big things, Paul Nicholson has finally achieved his life’s ambition and last Christmas sold his first crop of Christmas trees that he planted when he graduated from flight school. Chris Hiers and Betty Waddell both went to nurses school and Betty is now a registered nurse and Chris is an airline hostess for the United Airlines of the South. James Lewis, the famous pro. basketball player, has achieved his life’s ambition. Good heavens, what’s that terrible noise??? It sounds like a whole crowd of children. Oh, it’s just Carole Smith, it seems Carole is carrying on the Smith tradition. What’s this, oh I see now, the gleam from that cup nearly blinded me. It’s Kenneth Harmon re- ceiving the loving cup for winning the National Golf Tournament of 1972. On the domestic scene, Carolyn McMiIlian, Sara Lee Morris, and Faye Adkinson are happily married and they spend their spare time polishing up their game of Canasta. Well, what do you know, Emily Clark finally got around to marrying that guy in the Air Force. The two big farmers, Wayne Hanna and Alvin Smith, are supplying Quincy with food. As for Nancy Bostick, she just completed her doctor’s degree and she is now principal of Gadsden High School. In the musical world, Jean Driggers is happily married to the newly popular song writer and orchestra leader-E. T. Evans. And the famous concert pianist, LaVetra Armstrong, Jr. has just completed her 125th Con- cert at Carnegie Hall.
