lClass History cont'dJ Stage IV-Dignity Having passed successfully through the first three years we now reached the final stage-the end was drawing near.In this final stage Armetta Brown was chosen to lead the class in its last year in our dear high school .She was assisted by Mr.Wood our advisor.We were fortunate to have an addition to our faculty in the person of Mrs. Wright.Erdine Handy left us-fourteen of us were still together until the end. Our instructors,who put the final stamp of approval upon us were Mrs,Wright,Miss Ennett,Miss F1elds,Miss Williansfwho changed to Mrs. Landis during the Christmas hol1daysJ,and our good,o1d faithful Mr. Wood. Many and long have been our meetings to thrash out the plans for closing activ1ties.After tolling patiently for a long time our grad- ti i t h ua on 8 now a and'Hai1 to-morrow,speed to-dayn Melrose Roberson Armetta Brown X CLASS Q-aafqv --131 , One beautiful afternoon,as I was sitting alone in my apartment in Oakland,Calif.Ireceived the greatest surprise of my life when the doorbell rang and in stepped Mary Owens,my high school classmate of ten years ago.Mary infonmed me that she was on her way to join her husband,Joseph Lindsay,who was one of the leading lawyers in Los Angeles.Immediately,I opened my memory book,and Mary and I discussed the other members of the class of 1952 individually, After Mary finished telling me that Sarah Hayes was married to a progressive car salesman from Oxford,I suggested that she let me do some talking.From the pages of my memory book I gave her the fol- lowing information- Isabel Marrow,after receiving the Master of Arts degree from the University of Michigan,is new teaching in Clarksville,Va. Barbara Cotten is the head nurse at Lincoln Hospita1,Durham. Melrose Roberson is operating a beauty parlor in Philadelphia. It is interesting to note that she still likes to play with her cus- tomers'hair before beginning to dress it. Cornell Pettiford is the most outstand ng physician in Chicago. He is famous for either killing or curing. Frances Young is in the army Nurse Corps. Edward Downey has resorted to the farm for his livelihood.Spends most of his time lying in the shade. Nathaniel Smith is Stovall's favorite mortician.Hercould p ass for a corpse himself. Having followed up his old line of work with further studyharvin Smith is now an irresponsible detective.He gets into more mischief than his suspects. Q Eugene Smith has finally become a mlnister.His wife helps him compose his sermons. Theresa Morton is doing wonderfully as private secretary to the Governor of Haiti. The time passed so swiftly that Mary missed her tra1n.Then ,of course,she had to spend the night with us.By us,I mean my husband and our five 1OV6ly ch1ldren.We talked far,far into the night - - - of these things the prophet hath foretold, Armetta Brown
