RoseEmMAN M. G. Roseman Bossy ROGERS HAROLD SHEPHERD Betty Jo FRICKE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1947 In the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-three, a group of young students, numbering fifty-four, dared to enter iis first year of high school as Freshmen. We had the distinction of being the first class to complete the eighth grade as a part of the grammar school. We would graduate from the twelfth grade! In those days we were green and did not fully understand the tasks that were before us. We were not prepared, for this was different from the days of grammar school. But with the aid of Miss Edith Chambers and Mr. Holland L. Brinkley, we soon became accustomed to our new task. We started our high school career by entering several of the school’s activities. M. G. Roseman and L. A. Foster made the second team in basketball. We successfully passed as Freshmen on to a higher class called Sophomore. Only forty-five of the fifty-four came back to take up where we left off. Mr. W. L. Rhyne was our advisor. Since our first two years of high school were carried out during the period of World War II, our activities were not as numerous as they had been in the past years. In order to finance the Junior-Senior banquet which we gave this year as sophomores, we presented the play entitled “Just Like Cinderella.” We carried out the theme of “Maytime” in our formal banquet. “An Old Fashion School,” a play, was presented for entertainment. This year a sad event occurred for the whole United States mourned the death of our great beloved President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This year a great event occurred for the whole United States rejoiced over the victory of the Second World War. Our class officers this year were: President, M. G. Roseman; Vice-President, J. W. McNeely; Secretary, L. A. Foster; Treasurer, Floyd Lingle. Half of our high school career was ended. For now we were Juniors. Our faculty advisor for this year was Mrs. J. L. Sowers. Under her leadership we gave the play, ‘“Mama’s Baby Boy.” Our class officers were: President, Spencer Ennis; Vice-President, Harold Shepherd; Secretary-Treasurer, Rita Shaver. This year the first Mayday program to be held in several years was presented under the directorship of Miss Rachel Crowell. “A Pageant of School Days” was the title. A number of us took part in this program. Several of our group won athletic dis- tinction. In the County Tournament at Landis, L. A. Foster and M. G. Roseman were selected as members of the first team. Betty Jo Fricke won this distinction on the girls’ team. There was no graduating class this year, so school closed unevent- fully. With Mrs. Sowers as leader, we entered our Senior year, another year of lead- ership for the school. As we were the first class of Granite Quarry High School to graduate from the twelfth grade, we strove hard to be examples for our under- classmen. We were proud to have four of our Seniors as members of the Student Council. In the beginning we had fifty-four Freshmen, but only thirty-six of us saw fit to finish our high school careers. We had for our senior class officers: Presi- dent, Harold Shepherd; Vice-President, Junior Putnam; Secretary-Treasurer, Annie Mae Trexler. We had many duties as Seniors: selecting our class rings, invitations, mascots; getting out the annual and school papers; taking part in programs and sport events. In the fall a group of Seniors enjoyed a trip to Chapel Hill, in order to see a football game. We had a grand time. As the annual goes to press early, we can only anticipate our spring events which will include a play, Mayday pro- gram, Class Day and Commencement exercises. Our duties, which have been assigned to us, have been favorably carried out to the end. We found our days at school were wisely spent. Now as we are about to leave our school and enter our future in this wide, wide world, we want to thank our teachers who have struggled with us to make everything come out right in the end; for bearing with us for four short years. PEGGY LEFLER, Class Historian —2e— LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the members of the Senior Class of Granite Quarry High School, being of sound mind, do hereby make this our last will and testament. I To Mr. Staton and the faculty we leave our utmost appreciation for their kind- ness and help during our school career. Without your patience we could never have been successful in our twelve years at Granite Quarry. Jit To our parents who have watched over us and helped us in all our troubles, we thank you with our whole hearts. Ill To the Juniors we leave our dignity and back seats in chapel. You are now taking our place. Follow the advice of the faculty and you can’t go wrong. IV Sophomores you could never succeed in having as many beautiful girls and handsome boys as we, so don’t try.

In witness thereof we, the said Class of 1947, do hereunto set our hand and seal. BELLY JO FRICKE: Testator — A. SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Listen, all ye men and women, faculty advisors and classmates! Listen to the words of your prophetess, who is now to tell you what hath been revealed unto her, just as it hath been declared. Lo! it hath come to pass that the veil of the future hath been rent in twain; and the spirit of prophecy hath descended from the spheres to surround one with her mystic power. Aye, it hath been given unto me to see strange visions of these, my classmates, in the years yet to be. Now, it happened when it was declared that the future of the class was to be placed in the hands of your prophetess to do with just as she wished, that she cried out in a loud voice saying, “Who am I that the future of this great and glorious class should depend on me?” A voice spoke to me saying, “Hear now my words. I will make myself known unto you in a vision.” Immediately there appeared unto me the Angel of Things to Come, who rolled back the curtain of the dim beyond and allowed me to gaze down the long vista of the years yet to be. As she drew back the curtain, she pointed, with her finger, down the street of a strange land and spoke to me saying, “Look! Listen! Prophesy unto the young men ana women of the Class of Forty- seven of Granite Quarry High School all that you here behold.” As I looked into the land of the future, I could see moving in the shadows the people once my classmates, now citizens of the world. I could see our beloved President, Harold Shepherd, an authority on parlia- mentary procedure. He has made great success in this field. Jimmy Cooke has become a millionaire with his famous Cartoon(ist) ability. In a class room I could see Rita Shaver teaching the A B C’s to many a boy and many a girl. Frances Holshouser reports for the Salisbury Post, a writer of whom we can boast. She got her training working hard on the Quarrier. M. G. Roseman, a great athlete, is found to be the World’s Greatest Basketball Champion. A beautiful city was brought to my vision, and I found therein Peggy Drye very successful in Hollywood. Lo, even as I turned away from this scene, I beheld a very familiar young man standing on a baseball diamond; and I recognized L. A. Foster playing ball for the New York Yankees. On the stage in Broadway I could see Betty Jo Fricke playing a leading part in “Life With Father.” Then I saw the beautiful city of Washington. Who was that Republican in office? Spencer Ennis! President of the U. S. A. Before my vision I could see one of our familiar stores, S. H. Kress Co., and I found therein Patricia Fisher, Manager. And what could | see on one of the office doors in Salisbury but, “J. W. McNeely, Lawyer.” Then I could see in more classrooms; Clara Livengood was teaching English, and Max Webb was teaching Agriculture. I looked again, and as I looked I saw Mary Virginia Barringer and Annie Mae Trexler among the society circles of that far off time. Among those most fair to look upon were these two. My vision turned to the city of Faith and I could see Wentworth Beck was get- ting along greatly in his Radio Repair Business. ? As my vision traveled on, I beheld La Verne Shaw, head of one of the largest nurseries in the world. Another scene appeared, I saw Ray Coley, a leading chemist, working hard in his laboratory. Aleine Fulk, I can readily see, has become famous since she published her first sheet of music. I saw in the distance a great church. Within this church was Carl Holshouser. preaching before a large audience. The scene changed and, I saw Arnold Peeler settled down on a large farm, rais- ing children and potatoes. In the Commercial World, I saw Ruby Ritchie, Betty Jane Madures, Betty Peeler, and Dorothea Teague, all famous typists and secretaries. : While I pondered these things in my heart, the door of a house was opened before my vision, and I found a household made happy by a wonderful wife, Mildred Lippard. My soul rejoiced as I gazed on Mildred and I followed my Spirit of Proph- ecy further on its quest of the Things to Be. And as I watched the home lights die away, a swanky looking beauty parlor came to sight. Within I could see Peggy Lefler, head operator, beautifying the already beautiful Broadway stars. My vision was turned to some more wealthy members of our class. Billy John- son and Tommy Webb were made rich from raising pigs, peanuts, and potatoes. While yet feasting my eyes upon that sight I heard a roar above me and looking up, I beheld a silver-winged airplane. Inquiring, I found that Junior Putnam had made a great name for himself, for he was pilot of the plane and a second Lindbergh. Then I saw Bobbie Rogers and Johnnie Jones selling automobiles with the Chrysler firm. A “rushing count” will soon appear, and autos will no longer be their theme. Then I saw in a wonderful high school, there were three others members of our class who had won for themselves a place in the history of education. Standing in one of the classrooms was Betty Oddie, a noted French teacher. Then in the principal’s office, I saw that Floyd Lingle had won this honorable position; and standing in the office was Arlene Basinger, the high school nurse, who had been to Johns Hopkins Hospital and completed her training. And at the end of the street, I could see a beautiful university. Wathin was Mary Gladys Fisher, still in the field of education. She was working for her Ph.D. Degree. As I marvelled at all these things, a veil was drawn before my eyes, shutting out the vision of things to be, and I turned my eyes back to the things that are, sure that in all the days of the future only prosperity should come to the members of this, the Class of Forty-seven.

CLASS SONG The years, the months, and all the days, Have ever slipped so silently away. But memories will linger on Forever after we are gone. Now we must seek the world beyond We’ve trod our paths of learning, one by one. Oh! Granite High we bid adieu, To teachers, loved ones, and to you. We sing with joy, we sing with praise, Of Golden days. Deep in our hearts our love for you Will always dwell. Oh! Juniors, now that we are leaving, You must take our places Granite High we say farewell! —ALEINE FULK CLASS POEM Four years have passed since first we met In dear old Granite High Years that we shall ne’er forget That so swiftly have passed by. The day draws near when we must part Our class relations sever Out into life’s great work to start With earnest calm endeavor. Tis hard to say goodbye to all To bid our class adieu To leave these halls of learning And our teachers, kind and true. Who have labored to advance us In the paths of learning bright Who have helped us with our problems And have taught us what is right. These many years of earnest work Will bring us future cheer Success will crown the efforts made By all our Classmates here. —=SPENCGERIENNIS — 1 — HIGH SCHOOL CLASS SECTION GRANITE QUARRY HIGH SCHOOL 1947 CLASS OFFICERS Tommy Bray Vice-President ISABELLE BROWN LAWRENCE GAITHER Secretary Treasurer Cart FINK President ELEVENTH GRADE First row, left to right: Peggy Trexler, Clara Mae Snider, Jean Shive, Doris Peacock, Grace Huffman, Frances Coley, Audrey Richardson, Mary Helen Shook, Joan Holshouser, Nancy Peeler, Miriam Beck.
