CLASS HISTORY The Senior Class of 1947 began its suc- cessful career in the year 1942 when all the seventh grades of Greenville were united into one great class. The ability of this class was proved by the splendid work done in the following years. At the beginning of the school year 1943-44 when the class was in the ninth grade, the first organized freshman class was formed. The class chose as its officers Tommy Diener, president; Lewis Evans, vice president; Ann Oakley, secretary; and Henry Turner, Treasurer. In the spring of that year the Freshman Class gave a big dance which has since become an annual affair. When this class became the Sophomore class, its members started joining the school clubs and organizations. A very elaborate Coronation Ball was given in the spring with a colonial garden as its theme. Several members of the class wore cos- tumes depicting the age of George Wash- ington. The officers of this class were Ann Beatty, president; Jack Minges, treasurer; Tommy Diener, secretary; and Henry Tur- ner, vice president. During the year when this class was the Junior Class, a very successful maga- zine sale was held. The annual Junior-Sen- ior dance was held during May with a sweetheart theme, and the first banquet since before the war was given for the Sen- iors. Two members of this class held ofices in the Student Council: Frances Aman was. secretary, and Junius Rose was treasurer. Marshals were chosen from the class during the spring in order to serve for the commencement exercises. They were Jim Haney, Ann Oakley, Peggy Reid, Joyce Ward, Billy White, Vilma Bland, Mary Dawn Drum, Frances Tucker, and Lina AVorthington with Martha Conway and Bernadine Wprsley serving as Chief Mar- shals. The officers of this class were Tommy Diener as president, Ann Oakley as vice president, Martha Conway as secretary, and Junius Rose as treasurer. Finally this class reached the long-look- ed-forward-to title of the Senior Class. The year 1946-1947 was truly a full year for each member of this class. The class chose as its officers Lewis Evans for president, Guy Evans for vice-president, Frances Aman for secretary, and Henry Turner for treas- urer. For the Christmas program the class decided to give Dickens ' Christmas Carol, which turned out to be a great sviccess. This was presented at the regular Christ- mas program for the public, and a] so for an assembly program in school. At the lat- ter program, baskets of food were present- ed by the class to Willie and Curtis, the janitors. Under the direction of Mrs. Howard Mims, the traditional Senior play was Spring Fever by Glenn Hughes, and a splendid cast was chosen for this three- act play. The students in the cast were Guy Evans, Sherod White, Billy White, Barbara Gardner, Betty Jo Wilson, Frances Aman, Eloise Tucker, Jim Haney, Muriel Shotwell, Lina Worthington, Billy Sutton, and Tommy Diener. A very competent annual staff was chosen by the class and through their hard work this annual has been published. The class chose Ann Beatty, editor; Dennis Cooke and Jimmy Lee, associate editors; Junius Rose, sports editor; Muriel Shot- well, art editor; Henry Turner, business manager; Tommy Diener, advertising man- ager; and Lewis Evans, circulation mana- ger. This year the class had two of its members as officers in the Student Council: Tommy Diener as president and Junius Rose as vice-president. With the Commencement exercises this class leaves Greenville High School, but it takes along with it the fond memories of a cherished life in high school. Twenty-hvo GREENVILLE HIGH SCHOOL
