STATISTICS As Statistician of the Class of ' 49. I have endeavoicd to assemble those facts, figures, and whims of my classmates which should be most pleasant and profitable. I find that the average senior is 17 years old. is 5 feet. 7 inches tall, and weighs 132 2 pounds. The forty-niner is a healthy, young fellow. The entire class, con- sisting of 29 seniors, weighs exactly . ' ]842 2 pounds. The majority of the seniois has blue eyes and brown haii-. Incidentally, I find that we have only one red-head in our class. Since the majoiity has blue eyes we take blue as our favorite color. The class as a whole believes in love at fii-st sight. Twenty-five members say they do believe in it while four members do not. Mrs. Gentry and Mrs. Brad. ' ihei- are the favorite faculty members with Mrs. Anderson and Mr. Whitesidts as runncis-up. As our favorite subjects. I find that math and geography are best liked b the majority of the class. French is the runner-up by the girls. The favorite song is Tennessee Moon ' with Far Av. ' ay Places and ' A Little Bird Told Me being l unners-up. Most of ouj- class say thc. do not go for politics: although we do have four Democrats and one Republican in our class. Our class is composetl of Baptists and Methodists. Predominantly, it is Baptist. Some of our cla.ss prefer walking, but w hen it comes to riding they prefer Fords and Chevrolets. As our favorite actors and actresses, we find June AUyson and Bing Crosby being first. When it comes to pastime we find m(jst of our class loafing and eating. And, speaking of eating, the favorite foods are irish potatoes and chicken. We take as our pet peeve teachers and the junior class. When we stop to read, we prefer books by Grnce Livingsttm Hill. When read- ing becomes tiresome, wc tune up the radio and listen to anything from Lux Radio Theatre to Inner Sanctum. The greatest ambition ot the Senior Class of ' 49 is to get married, and look at the progress most of them are making! DORIS WHITENER
