CLASS HISTORY It is haul to give the history of a class when so much still lies ahead of us. So far, we haven’t had much time to do things. We hope our history twenty-five years from now will be more worthy of your notice. We’ll begin at the beginning where all good stories should start. Most of us entered first grade a wee bit scared, but found it such a happy place that all our terrors disappeared. Then, from grade to grade we passed along, learning not only things from books but how to work and play together, to respect the rights of others, and to be good citizens in our school world. Then one exciting day, we entered high school with an enrollment of twenty-three. We began the year by electing to serve as our class officers Johnie Jean Dowdy, president; Andrew Barber, vice-president; Elma Wilkie, secretary-treasurer. Under the direction of Mrs. Francis Layland, things seemed to have gone very well for us. Then came our second year with Mr. Cullipher as our homeroom teacher. When we were finally settled, we found that we were lacking four of our classmates. We became very active in our Sophomore year. .Some joined the basketball teams; others played baseball and softball; still others were members of the glee club, the Student Council, and the cheering team. Our Junior year seemed to us a very trying one; but just before the Christmas holiday; we re¬ ceived a card bearing the information that our class rings were in the depot. We were an excited crowd of kids. Then came the .Junior-Senior banquet, which we had to struggle over, however, it seemed to us the last word in entertaining. Seven of us received letters for athletic activities. Our class leaders that year were Thelma Phillips, president; Helen Hart,, vice-president; Eunice Soots, secretary and treasurer; Wilma Rosser, room representative. Our Senior year in Goldston High is 1949. Two members of the class married during the sum¬ mer, but returned to finish their education. This year we elected Savannah Callicutt, president; John Thomas, vice-president; Andrew Bar¬ ber, secretary; Eunice Soots, treasurer. We chose as our flower the red rose and blue and white for our colors. Our motto is—“Sail on, the shore is just ahead.” Many exciting adventures lay before us during our Senior year. For many months, visions of the great Chowan River passed through our minds, and we could readily picture our Junior- Senior banquet. But above all this, we looked forward to our commencement for this was the time when we would leave Goldston School with much regret. We not only tried to do our work well, but we did other things decidedly worth while. We ap¬ proached our last exams with dignity and confidence, and we passed ’em. So having acquired a better education, we haven’t done so poorly, up to now. Pape Nine
