Class flllvtory Lots of water has run out of the fountain since we first entered GHS. in our Junior I year under Mrs. Cecil Edgar. lt took our first year to get accustomed to leaving our seats, walking down long flights of steps and entering a different class-room every forty-five minutes in the day. We stood still amazed in our second Junior year before Mrs. Wayne Hiten, our sponsor and Eng- lish teacher. That year we got to know who our upper-class-men were, willing to stand in a corner for a laugh at their corny jokes in study hall. Well, we finally got through that year and entered into something where we really felt important. We could use the name freshmen instead of Junior I or ll. That was the first year we had the privilege of electing our favorite and presenting a stunt in Stunt Night. We were then getting in the routine of high school and all because of the help of Mrs. Cranston Hicks, a swell sponsor. lt was best we did get accustomed to Mrs. Summer's math, because the next year she was our Sophomore sponsor. With her guidance and understanding we won lst prize for our presentation of Musical ScaIe in Stunt Night. It was also the year we ran a close second in Homecoming Queen election. We also got our first introductions to initiations into various clubs, such as F.H.A., F.F.A., Camera Club, and G. Club We all look forward tolseeing these initiations every fall. Finally, after all the excitement of our Sophomore year, we were able to be called upper classmen better known as Juniors. Our sponsor this year happened to be an old rookie, Mrs. Edgar. lt was hard to get started on all the activities of that year but, there is nothing like trying so here goes, along the first of the year our candidate that was running for Homecoming Queen was runner up, next came the election of Who's Who, our class was well represented, incidentally, it has been since '46, then later we presented Me and My Shadow, our annual Junior Play, and selected Class Rings. Our class was more than well represented in sports. Over three-fourths of both basketball and football teams were from our class of which we were very proud. Another thing that will be unforgettable is the grand Class trip we took to Mobile, Florida, and points in Mississippi. Last but not least we honored the Seniors with the annual Junior-Senior Banquet, New Years Eve in the school auditorium. After all these activities and studies, much to our regrets, we came to the point we were be- ginning to think we would never reach, the honor of being Seniors. This year started off with a bang by receiving our class rings at a Class Ring Party. Later but early in the school year was the voting of Homecoming Queen and our candidate won. She reigned over Homecoming and was crowned by King on April 8th at Stunt Night. Next came our production of the Annual, which was our biggest job of the year. Our Senior Play Husbands Don't Know Everything went over wonderfully, and we want to send our thanks to the Juniors for the J unior-Senior Banquet given in honor of us on Saint Valentine's Day. lt was really swell. Well as the time comes for all good things to come to an end, we receive our diplomas, sincerially and regretfully leave all our activities and studies for our own life in the world, we want to thank all our sponsors and leaders for their grand guidance, leadership and understanding. Especially Mrs. R. L. Sum- mers, our Senior Sponsor. Dorothy Rose Raley I I I, , ,,,-. . ..-..A.,-,.4.
