Seamstress Class Flower Red Rose Class Poem To Teachers, Friends, and Classmates And all others who ' ve been so dear We reluctantly say to you, Farewell, And shed a parting tear. For Carver we are leaving And though we should be glad, Our hearts are torn with grieving Yet why should we be sad? Our work with you is ended. But challenges rise anew; Challenges that we must conquer To be worthy of praise from you. By: Cooper Turner 19

CLASS HISTORY The history of this class is most unusual, in that the members have experienced various educational back grounds. Lend me your ears while 1 briefly relate to you the story of our class. The graduates of this class entered Carver High School in 1959. Our understanding and helpful sponsors were Miss Billups, Mr. Wal- lace, Mr. Poole, and Mr. Evans. We looked forward to entering Car- ver for seven long years. This was an exciting year, for it was filled with both happiness and frustration. After a tiring but joyous year of pains and problems, the majority of us were promoted to the ninth grade. In our freshman year the class was represented in the various activities: Band, Choir, N.F.A., N.H.A., football, baseball, and the Student Council. Our sponsors were Mrs. Cobbins, Miss Jones, Miss Reavis, Miss Billups, and Mr. Wallace. Nothing unusual happened in our sophomore year. The class con- tinued to participate in the various activities. However, it was dur- ing the sophomore year that many of our classmates ended their formal education. Still, the rest of us traveled on toward our educa- tional goals. Our sponsors were Mrs. Wright, Miss Jones, and Mr. Wallace. The Junior year was a great one. We were faced with a big event, the Junior-Senior Prom, which we had looked forward to ever since we were in the eighth grade. On the night of the Prom, which was May 4, 1962, Gloria Frye was crowned Miss Junior. That occasion will always be one of the highlights of our high school careers. We were under the guidance of Mrs. Wright, Miss Baldwin, and Mr. W allace. Our senior year has been the greatest and most rewarding of them all. The class takes pride in the scholastic attainment of Clarence Washington, William Lewis, Franklin Taliaferro, Pauline Minor, and John Holmes. In sports this year, John Minor, Thomas Wilson, and Paul Arrington have excelled. Thus, the class has realized more fully the importance of an education and the necessity of living each day as if it were our last. As we approach the completion of our high school education, the majority of us have many ideas for becoming leaders of tomorrow. We sincerely think that we have done our utmost to accomplish a portion of our destiny, and we shall strive to conquer more in the future. by: Alice Morton Willa Stewart 21
