{SCHOOL DAYS) CLASS HISTORY On September 26, 1939 the senior class of Gober High started out on a final nine months voyage around the world. There were thirteen members of the crew in addition to officers to wit: Harold Baker, Mamie Babers, Billie Joe Burkett, Dorothy Campbell, Jerry Cantrell, Bennie Colvin, Beulah Pae Cooper, Robert McCullough, Ruby McGee, Wayne Roberts, Zealous Trout, Myrtle Turman, Glendell Woodson. This being an unlucky number, we tried in vain to gain recruits. Failing in this, one of the number must be eliminated. The ax fell on Mamie Berbers, who moved to Bonham, where she graduated a few days ahead of this class. Many interesting things happened during the years. At times some became seasick and during storms some gave up hope of ever reaching the home port. Our pilot, Mr. Moreland, and his very able assistance managed to reassure us and always revived our hopes. To them we arc thankful and shall ever remember each one. On December 18 in Paris, France we celebrated Christmas with a party with all present. On April 17 we arrived in San Francisco and wore surprised to find that the juniors had prepared a most delightful banquet for us. May we express to them our thanks. On May 3, we arrived in Gober and prescribed a class play, He Couldn’t T‘ ke It . Our diplomas are received with mixed feelings; one of sorrow that our voyage is over, yet with a feeling of a year well spent and looking forward to work in larger fields. --By Wayne Roberts
