SENIOR CLASS HISTORY OP 1946-47 As seniors of class ' 46- ' 47, we seem to be ending the first part of our journey — life ' s solemn journey into the nknown. As we make this important step, we recall the things that have brought us this far; our first day in chool, our seventh grade graduation, but most important, our entrance into high school. Even thought dismayed bythe act that we were to be the first to encounter the eighth grade as Junior High and first to conquer a twelfth year, e were entranced by the thought of being amon 7 the high school colleagues. We were skeptical that first day, not knowing what to do or when to do it. Our ease and self- -confidence in doing the wrong thang at the rij.;ht time and the right thing at the wrong time brought hearty laughs nd up-roars from the upper classmen. We entered classes, hours after the scheduled period only to find that we were in the wrong class and wrong room; we scattered to and fro when the telephone rang, thinking this meant a change of classes. These were but a few minor defects of that first day which were were eventually smoothed to perfection by ere routine. No major battles or conquests were made that year, but we all realized the Importance of meeting the right classe t the right time, and we knew when not to exchange periods when the telephone sounded. —-Perhaps the most humorous in- cident occurred when a few of us were presenting a program n chapel concerning the political side of Caldwell County, n one speech something was mentioned about a room marked or Ladles Only , referring, of course, to a meeting place where only ladies would hold their general meeting. The enlors of that year got the wrong idea about that room marked for ladles only , and it was some time before we ould continue our program due to their hilarious caperlngs The next year found us in somewhat of a pecullarv sit- uation; the boys were separated from the girls! At first, Te didn ' t think we were going to like this, but somehow we managed, and we were none the worse for it. The main event of this year was a contest sponsored by he Women ' s Christian Temperance Union. The speeches were elected and rendered by the Individuals and presented in hapel, Judejes were some very prominent people from town ind they announced the winner out of seven contestants a ' •irl from the ninth grade, Betty Hendrix. At the close of le school year, a medal with the letters, «?.C.T.U. was esented to this student by the principal of the school. By the way, in the spring of that year, our princical Ir. A. D. Huffines, fell down the school steps and broke hi eg. The moral of this is— never trust a wandering sales- man I ° -j. ' so The tenth grade brought excitement and wonder. A hav- Ide was one of the eventful features sponsored that yearf p?any attended and all were enthusiastic about it ard the arty that followed. It seems that after this, we were finally oreoarinc- fn r. ' ' ' S;f ' ' ° banquet. Preparations were made ?or tSf Itheme, Hitch Your Wagon To A Star . This event waa irJL hry successful, and everyone left the banqult Ln in won erful spirits still laughint; about the Jokes M?. Puffin es bur guest speaker, had pulled on a promlnint ?a5;ny ?ntoSn! ' Not long after this, it seems another business held attraction for our principal. Leaving the school nro?ess?oT he resumed a diflerent work in Hudson: His departSJe in pril brought a man whom most of knew well! Mrr£. J! Cagle. ' J ' ' ' e year was to be different from any nrevioi years. There was to be no graduating class. Somehow Je filled the terms with various activities, a d graduation ex- ercises were hardly missed. b aauauion ex- In January of that year, Mr. Cagle, too, had a y earning: or another business so he left the school profession and went to Sanford, N. C. Everyone hated to ?ee him aSd Ms dorable family leave because they had really become a part of us within the time that they were here. After farewell peeches, and tearful good-by ' s, they left us (only to re- turn for the next school year— They missed us too much I) Mr. eagle ' s place was filled by Mr. Richard Starnes.who s with us now. Perhaps we m.ay add here that it is to Mr tarnes that we give hi h trjbute and credit for the splendi ork performed and beginning! fi xoiiui A play entitled The Arrival of Kitty was sponsored during this school semester, and it was attended by many ho gave credit for it ' s being the most entertaining play iven in several years Speaking of plays, in the ninth •rade, three one-act plays were presented, Everything ' s Reasonable , Girl Shy , and Message Proci Eataan . In i enth grade, three more one-act plays were given, The Haunted Theater , The Trysting Place , and Hillbilly Sue hese three plus the corairencement three-act play, The Calamity Kids , were deemed successful in every aspect. In February ' 46, the eleventh grade sponsored a Valen- tine Party. It seems that after much agitation in gettin r hln s ready, the party was enjoyed by all. The twelfth grade is now looming before us, and we re- ? ° y® as the previous one .a-he highlights here are the beginning of sports, football basketball, and baseball. Along with the football season ' . cmes the crowning of Miss Betty Setzer as Miss Granite superlatives were selected which brought :avoritism from all sides. All in all, our twelve years together have been ones we won ' t and can ' t forget. To our principals, teachers! ancJ friends, we extend our heartiest thanks for helping us eve? lllingly over the difficult spots. We are remembering now the things that happened several years back. We shall tro n remembering what you have done, and the kindnesses you have rendered!
