N INETEEN FORTY SIX x.f 15 ,- OUR E TRANCE---OUR EXIT As exciting as an opening night on Broadway was the first day at Harding. Our cast of about one hundred and ninety seventh graders felt proud, yet very insignificant. We were practically lost in the hustle of senior high students, who regarded us with aloofness and definite superiority. We didn't mind this, however, for we were fascinated by our surroundings and very engrossed in ourselves. Hitching our wagons to a star, and' fixing our eyes on a distant peak, we stepped before the footlights with the determination to give the best performance possible. Starring in Act I were Howard Boyd, president: Jean Lee, vice-president: Jean Laudeman, secretary: and Johnnie Caldwell. treasurer. Mrs. Steele was our director for the year. With eager anticipation of the eighth grade, we had intermission. Our eagerness was rewarded, for when the curtain rose on Act II, we found' new experiences awaiting us. A little dash of social life was added. The Girl Reserves, with Beverly McClellan, Ann Sarratt, Lillian McNeil, and Boots Knox as officers, were very active. The Junior Hi-Y club offered a swell opportunity to boys who were interested in sports and extra curricular activities. Jim Severs and Bobby Jackson served as president and vice-presi- dent respectively. In the role of eighth grade officers, we had Jim Severs, president: Jerry Charles. vice-president: Jo Ann Terrell, secretary: and Dowd Primm, treasurer. While the boys were idolizing such rough 'n' ready guys as Sandy Cook and Paul Monty, the girls were wondering if they would ever become as sophisticated as the seniors of '42. After an eventful year, the curtain closed, sealing another chapter of our lives. The ninth grade found us more enthusiastic than ever before. This was to be our final act in junior high school. Our guiding star through this milestone in our careers was Jean Laudeman, who, with a swell supporting cast, brought us through Act III with great approval from the critics. The National Junior Honor Society, with Neal Westmoreland as president. claimed twenty- one of our number. The high ideals for which this organization stood prepared its members for the responsibilities they were to face as senior high students. Two new clubs were added to Harding-the M. L. L. Club under the leadership of Mrs. Sawyer, and the S. O. L. Bible Club, directed by Miss MacKorell. A highlight of the musical stage was the Operetta, HKing Ko KO , presented by the junior high school choir. Many other activities, such as banquets, dances, and plays, were crowded into the year. The tenth grade was an entirely new type of production. Everything was different from observing second lunch period to the beaming way in which we informed people that were now sophomores. Jim Severs, Beverly McClellan, and Ray Lollin' as officers strived to keep us in full view of the public eye. Activities were abounding with tenth graders beginning to take leading parts. Officers in the Student Council, members of the Hustler staff, and the dance committee were some of the important roles. The Senior Hi-Y participated in competitive sports and held a very enjoyable banquet. A large part of the basketball team was made up of sophomores and our '46 grid stars were already beginning to shape up. Another outstanding performance had been given. Act V found us' racing toward our goal. Juniors-that word as music to our ears. From our cast, We elected Willie Austin. president: Jim Severs. vice-president: and Ray Loflin, secretary- treasurer. Miss Lois Carter was our adviser. The Debating Club, under the direction of Mrs. Shore, was added to our school. We paid very close attention to the activities of the senior class, for we, as their understudies, were to fill their positions. We hoped, however, to equal and surpass their merits. We, acting as host, attended the Junior-Senior Banquet, which was held at the Woman's Club. Rev. Howard Wilkinson was our guest speaker. Junior marshals were chosen with Beverly McClellan as chief, and Neal Westmoreland as assistant chief. Many of us attended Class Day, the Commencement Sermon, and Commencement just to get a sneak preview of our own forthcoming exercises. In Act VI we felt the spotlight full upon us. Tensely, we squared our shoulders for this, our final performance. The most promising stars among us this season were officers of the Student Council, Jim Severs, president: Ray Loflin, vice-president: and Tommy Coursey, treasurer. The senior class officers were Ray Loflin, president: Neal Westmoreland, vice-president: Charles Knighten, secretary: and Willie Austin, treasurer. Mrs. Shore was our prompter for the year. We seniors went through the usual paces of choosing superlatives, Class Day officers, and deciding on our Graduation formalities. Beverly McClellan was elected as the Harding entry in the D. A. R, Good Citizenship Contest. As the curtain lowered on the last act, we realized with gratitude that we were the first class in seven years to give its closing performance in a peaceful world. JIMMY WILKINSON, Historian. Page Thirty PROPHECY JUNE, 1 9 5 6 CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA Last night at the Harding Memorial Theatre lovers of the drama were treated to the world premiere of Life with the Class of l946 . This play, the literary production of Tommy Coursey, Peggy Coppala, and Barbara Landrum, certainly is destined to rank in point of popularity with Tobacco Road , 'iAbie's Irish Rose , and Life with Father , As the curtain rises we see Erma Huber and Jack Goodwin painting a portrait of the most beautiful girl in the world. For their model they are using the combined beauties of Betty Proctor, Betty Lou Collins, Beverly McClellan and Jo Ann Terrell. Richard Barnum Bennick is well cast as the circus proprietor and his troupe includes many seasoned veterans of the stage, including: Jimmy Goodwin, as the side-show barker who supplies the main tent with fresh air: George Alexander, who waters the elephants: the famous Lee twins, Jean and Jane: the noted Jim twins, Wright and Warren: and those torrid tropical dancers, Elossy Garr, Elaine Wishart, Barbara Henley, and Mahota Rogers. It is a rare thrill to watch those famous McNeil sisters, Peggy and Lillian. The outstanding costumes of the whole cast which consists of sporty clothes and' bow-ties, are designed by those two make-up artists and clothes designers, Boots Knox and Boyce Roberts. Further evidence of their touches is found in the costumes of Ray Loflin and Jim Severs, the two clowns whose antics provide much of the fun of the evening. The curtain at act one comes down in a thrilling finale as Marshall Ladd dives from the high tower into a glass of water held by Phyllis Parker. Did he make it? Blub-blubl During intermission Jimmy Robertson leads his band through Mickey Haddock's composition entitled When the Banana Skins are Pealing, I'll Come Sliding Back to You . Musicians in the band are as follows: Noel Runyan and Bobby Williams, trumpets: Bobby Lee, Georgia Kaperonis. and Dan Mims, clarinets: Catherine Dunn, drum: Bobby Zedaker and Lou Ashby, basses: William Austin and James Hendrix, whistles. At the conclusion of this number R. E. Ford and Gene Burnett can be heard crying, Cigars, cigarettes, peanuts, and popcorn, as they go up and down the aisles. These two young men have just made a fortune in opening a cigar store on the corner of Irwin Avenue and West Sixth Street. The lights are dimmed and the curtain rises on act two. The heroine Betty Jean Hahn is being pursued by those two wolves, Cute-boy Earnhardt and Heart-breaker Little . Taking no chances these slick-chicks have hired Earl and Wesley Raborn, big time bouncers, to take care of all competition. Everything runs along smoothly until detective Neal Westmoreland arrives on the scene and throws the villians into prison. The heroine is esorted by Nick Gardner to the Justice of the Peace, John Ray. Much of the humor of the drama is centered around Dowd Primm's swimming pool and aquarium, where we find many different kinds of fish and sharks, including Donald Helms and Neil Hasty. The comedian in the scene is Ward Threatt, who may also be heard on the popular radio program, Canlt You Stop This ? Jimmy Wilkinson, Martha Herion, Rachel Beatty, and Melba Wallace are the starring performf ers with their brilliant acting. A new scene, concerning the matrimonial bureau of Eloyd McClamrock and Ralph McGrath, replaced the spot previously taken by crooner Caldwell Neely. Last evening as. Mr. Neely was singing, several bobby-sockers swarmed the stage and as a result the crooner was seriously in- jured. Police Commissioner Bill Prim is holding Erances Bearden, Joyce Cooper and Nora Haire for questioning. The drama draws to an exciting end as Charles Patrick Henry Knighten quotes, Give me liberty or give me Betty Lou Lawing . With this quotation still ringing in our ears, the curtain falls on a brilliantly acted drama. Everyone-the actors and the audience, has enjoy- ed Life with the Class of l946 .

The past is gone: we can't retrace The steps we've failed to take.' Onward work to win the place We've always hoped to make. The second act is just aheadg So meet it face to face. Never from this path be led: We have to win the race. Harding, we hope we may leave you Better than before we came. A parting word we want to give you: We're proud to bear your name.
