COOKS The saying, “The proof of the pudding is in the eating thereof, was verified in our cafeteria. Each day an hour before lunch, tantalizing odors began to float about in the vicinity of the cafeteria making mouths water and stomachs grumble. When the lunch bell finally rings, the rush is on for we know that hot, tempting, well prepared food awaits us in the cafeteria. BUS DRIVERS “Neither rain nor snow nor hail nor sleet shall stop the drivers of our fleet. “Very responsible describes the duty of each bus driver. Each student is entitled to a safe ride to and from the school. It is the job of the bus drivers to fulfill this call. Left to right: Mrs. Dorothy McWilliams, Mrs. Lena Grob, Mrs. Blanche Stutler.

CUSTODIANS In the course of a dramatic day, we are many times guilty of untidiness. Where would we be without our props committee, the custodians, who patiently clean up after us every day? As our loyal fans, they are always present at our school activities, keeping the school open, our belongings protected, and our spirits high. They are the first to arrive in the morning and last to leave in the evening. We wish to thank these people for making our school a more comfortable place to live and learn. 18 Left to right: Mr. Mordecai Summerfield, Mrs. Nettie Smith, Mr. Richard Ford.

SENIOR OFFICERS Left to right: Deanna Kisner, Jack Burdett, Robert Nicholson, Paul Currey. CLASS HISTORY In September of 54 we entered the halls of G.H.S. confused, timid, and feeling awkward, wearing large red bows, which was a part of our initiations. As freshmen usually are we vere green but we learned fast. We got off to a good start by electing our class officers; Paul Currey, President; Benny Garrett, Vice President; Shirley Devers, Secretary; Ada Kemple, Treasurer. Although still not upper classmen we weren't green anymore, and as sophomores we were a little more confident of ourselves than we were as freshmen. To prove our confidence and ability our boys won the class basketball tournaments. We elected our class officers; Ada Kemple, President; Jack Burdett, Vice President; Deanna Helm Kisner, Secretary; Jim Tucker, Treasurer. In September 1956 we at last became Juniors and upperclassmen. We started things off by electing our officers—John Blue, President; Robert Nicholson, Vice President; Michael Milinovich, Secretary; Tom Cuppett, Treasurer. President JACK BURDETT Vice President DEANNA KISNER Secretary................... ROBERT NICHOLSON Treasurer PAUL CURREY We raised $1,062.83 in our magazine campaign for a big accomplishment in the form of the Junior-Senior Banquet and John Blue was the outstanding individual in the campaign by selling the greatest number of subscriptions and winning a watch. In February of 1957 we presented the play Young April which was directed by Miss Batten, with a splendid cast. Our senior year at last. But really the past three years have gone terribly fast and it would be fun to be a freshman again. Or would it? The election of class officers was our means of reorganizing for another school year, when we elected Jack Burdett, as President; Deanna Helm Kisner, Vice President; Robert Nicholson, Secretary; Paul Currey, Treasurer. In May we proudly, but sadly walked up and received our diplomas. Now we are going out into the world. We have had some wonderful times in high school, and also our share of troubles. We will separate, forget, and be forgotten, but stiJI the memories of these four years together will always be imprinted in our minds and hearts. Left to right: Mr. Haselden, Miss Batten, Mr. McKinney, Mr. Faulkner.
