SENIOR HISTORY As one who is preparing to take a long and distant journey and stops to look at his old home and say farewell to his friends before he goes, so we. the Senior Class of 1940, pause to take a final look and say our farewells before launching our ship on the dark and stormy sea of life. Four years ago a group of timid boys and girls walked shyly into the high school auditorium to be assigned to their rooms and teachers. If asked then what we were coming to school for we would have probably replied “just to be doing something” because graduation seemed so far away that it was hard to realize that this was our purpose. Time did not pass so slowly and soon our Freshman year was over. After three months of rest and fun, we assembled once more in the auditorium of our high school. This time, however, we were not quite so timid and were actually feeling a little important. During the previous school year and vacation our class had grown slightly smaller in number but surely larger in knowledge and happiness. Members of our class were coming to the front in athletics and other school activities. All in all our Sophomore year was very happy and was climaxed by a picnic trip to Cincinnati. Another pause and then we were Juniors. We were really beginning to look forward to graduation then and to think about our lessons in a more serious manner. Our Junior year will long be remembered. It was this year that our first play, the cast of which was composed entirely of members of our class, was given. Then came the delightful trip to Cumberland Falls on a picnic. And then, most important of all, the Junior-Senior reception, which is probably the biggest event of the year. As Juniors, we also assisted at Class Night and other commencement exercises but the Seniors were the big shots” in these affairs. Now, after a thrilling Junior year and refreshing vacation we are on the home stretch of our high school career. Once more our class has lost some members but in the meantime it has taken on some valuable new ones. Our Senior year has been the most important in more ways than one. We were well represented in football by “Tycobb” Foster, Harvey Dean, Dick Mitchell, Sol Potter, Elmer Sharpe. Thornton Lamkin and C. M. Shewmaker. At this time the Seniors wish to pay tribute to “Junior” Britton, Thornton “Chick” Lamkin, Sol Potter and “Billy Hanna for making basketball history for H. H. S. May they all be able to play on some college team in the future. The time has come when we must leave. Our hearts are saddened when we realize that our last year is drawing to a close. We are just beginning to know what our school and teachers mean to us, but, alas, it is too late. However, as we pass on, we can show our gratitude to our Alma Mater by being worthy representatives. We will always remember this school and its teachers and our classmates and now to the school, to the Junior Class, to all the other classes, and to the teachers we say in tones of mingled joy and sadness, “Farewell.” ROGER WATTS.
