Class Prophecy Hi there! Well, here we are in May of 1965. Let's see what's happening to the Seniors who graduated in 1956. It seems that several of the girls have obtained the honorable de- gree of MRS. They are LaVerne Dennis and Marlene Doby. Wayne Trexler has obtained high military honors in the Air Force. He is now teaching in one of the AF training schools. Kermene Colson has taken over the role of ''Our Miss Brooks'' and is teaching English in high school. Atthe lastart exhibit, Gary Safrit's paintings rated among the best. Several art museums are clamoring for his work. Secretarial jobs seemedto have appealed to Sue Fisher, Ann Sides, and Rachel Shinn. They are prosperous secretaries following the example of Susie MacNamara. Frances Barger, having graduated from Appalachian, is now coaching girls' basketball. The Philadelphia Phillies are now prospering from our catcher, Virgii Bernhardt. He is making a fabulous salary. Inthe Mathfield are Barbara Brewer and Rachel Jordan. We hear they are even improving some of Einstein's theories. Truett Smith, Glenn Eagle, and Charlie Earnhardt are mechanics on school buses. They gained valuable material from their school bus driving. Aused car lot in Salisbury has been opened by Charles Lyerly. Joey Brooks is his assist- tant. Marshall Jones is having great success with his hamburger stand he opened not long ago. Filling the position of Farm Agent for Rowan County is Edward Kline. Assisting him is Joseph Earnhardt. We are proud to boast of two models from our class. Wilma Mahaffey and Myrna Peeler are the lucky gals. Kenneth Nance, using his political ability, has been appointed to the President's cabinet. Glenn Lyerly is doing well in the grocery business. Handling the meat department for him is John Kesler. Having formedtheir own hillbilly band, Glenn Brown and Ernest Basinger are making rapid progress. The medical profession has attracted Victor Earnhardt. He is now a successful doctor. Ruth Basinger is attracting a lot of attention as a comedienne on the Jack Benny Show. The Army has gained two of our boys, Eddie Brown and Max Brown. They were promoted to Sergeants last month. Jim Bruce has his own church in Kannapolis now. We hear he is a great success. Jean Hodgson, Shirley Poole, and Barbara Coley are operating a beauty shop. Most of the movie stars patronize them. Paul Fisher has just opened a new bank with Martha Nan Teague as his receptionist. Using her typing ability for the New York Times is Wilma Cauble. Richard Roscoe is sweeping Filmland. He has the lead in his latest picture. Probing into the depths of people's minds is Jim Yates. His office, the most modern one around, was constructed by Reginald Richardson. Winston Mahaffey, David Shuping, and Randall Stirewalt made the big league. They are playing football with the Washington Redskins. Bob Williams has masteredthe French language. He is now a professor at a leading college. Franklin Sifford and Coy Wilhelm are successful farmers. They have invented a new machine to make farming easier. And last, but not least, is Eunice Foster, head dietician of the new consolidated school. Class Prophet Daisy Durey Last Will And Cestament We, the Senior Class of 1956 of Granite Quarry High School, Rowan County, State of North Carolina, being of sound mind, body, conscience, and satisfactory temperament, do finally end our twelfth year of school and hereby make and allow publishment of this our last will and testa- ment. Article I: To our parents, who have provided sufficient finance and guidance, we give our deepest love and gratitude and promise to make the most of the effort they have put forth in helping us attain our diploma. Article II: Tothe Class of 1957, we leave our sponsor, Mrs. Sowers, hoping you will love, appreciate, and enjoy being with her as much as we have. Article III: To our principal and teachers, who have urged us onward and helped us in the hours of discouragement, we give credit for our scholastic accomplishment and assure them that their effort was not in vain. Article IV: We, the Seniors, realize that there are certain qualities which we could not carry with us from Granite Quarry High School, so we leave them to certain deserving Juniors. Max Brown and Ruth Basinger leave their most original talents to Jerry Klutiz and Betty Lou Shoe, hoping Jerry and Betty get as many laughs as they have. Glenn Brownand Ernest Basinger will their good-looking qualities to Donnie Peeler, Bern- ard Holshouser and Rayford Eudy. Eunice Foster and Marlene Doby leave Mrs. Sowers's homeroom housekeeping to Ruby Oddie and Mary Overcash. Myrna Peeler and Kermene Colson bequeath their feminine attractions to anyone in the Junior Class who can meet the requirements. Herman Basinger inherits John Kesler's quietness and ability to keep to himself. Winston Mahaffey and Frances Barger leave their athletic powers to Donald Leazer and Nancy Beaver. Wayne Trexler and Victor Earnhardt will their mathematical minds to Nelson Page, Dan Miller, and Jimmy Lyerly. Wayne Miller and Elton Trexler inherit Franklin Sifford's and Jimmy Bruce's Agriculture interest. Gary Safrit leaves his art talent and piano playing with any Junior who thinks he can com- pare or qualify. Virgil Bernhardt leaves his school spirit with Michael Shive, hoping Michael will show as much interest as he and keep Granite winning. Barbara Brewer wills her long and beneficial hours of studying to Carolyn Morgan, Anna- belle Peeler, Rose Smith, Ruby Stiller, and Faye Trexler. Joey Brooks and Eddie Brown will their friendly attitudes and knowledge of the opposite sex to Jimmy Deal, Eugene Cauble, and Larry Thomas. Pug Kepley, Blondine Joyner, Shirley Lesley, and Shirley Josey inherit Wilma Cauble's and La Verne Dennis's cuteness. Daisy Ann Drury leaves her typing ability with Gail McCombs and Carol Shenk. Glenn Eagle leaves his talking to Jerry Peeler, but hopes Jerry does not get into as much trouble over it as he has. Truett Smith, Coy Wilhelm, and Charlie Earnhardt leave their bus driving and worn out brooms to J. E. Cauble, Hoyle Lingle, and David Trexler. Joseph Earnhardt, Reginald Richardson, David Shuping, and Marshall Jones leave their sleeping to Tommy Baggett, Raven Earnhardt, Tommy Jones, Jimmy Webb, Edward Shirley, hoping they will also benefit from it. Sue Fisher and Rachel Jordan will their jobs on the ''Chips ' to interested and qualifying Juniors. Paul Fisher and Richard Roscoe leave their ''Hot Rod'' enthusiasm to Tommy Byrd and Billy Craddock, but hoping they can keep out of trouble - Paul and Richard did not! Shirley Poole and Jean Hodgson will their good-natured dispositions to Camille Brown, Bonnie Lingle, Georgia Miller, and Shirley Ratliff. Eddie Kline leaves his interest in Physics and professors to David Fisher, and Sonny Ribe- lin. Bob Williams wills his neat appearance to James Owens and Donald Curlee. Glenn Lyerly and Charles Lyerly leave their cycle interests to any three Juniorswhoare looking for a challenging hobby. Wilma Mahaffey and Rachel Shinn leave Mr. Rhyne's library to be maintained by Frances Foy, Sue Eller, and Phyllis Peeler. Ann Sides and Martha Teague leave their great big smiles to be displayed by Nancy Kesler, Amelia Bame, Magdalene Davis, and Joyce Honbarrier. Randall Stirewalt and Jimmy Yates bequeath their football interests to Jasan Park and any- one else tough enough to qualify. Jimmy Fink, our newcomer, cherishes his knowledge of English. Maybe he can excel Mrs. Sower's someday. We, the Senior Class in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty-six, do hereby appoint Mrs. Sowers as executor of this our last will and testament. Lastly, I Kenneth Nance, without another iota, leave this the last will and testament of our class signed.
