SENIOR CLASS The ultimate goal in our high school career has been attained. We now have the privilege of contemplating, in retrospect, this phase of our education. In pursuit of higher learning, we encountered, at times, the snares of disillusionment, bewilderment, and fatigue which had to be overcome by devotion and patience. These difficulties, however, were compensated for by the happy fellowship we enjoyed as a class. The year was 1940. The freshmen, eager to begin their untried adventures in the institution of high school and anxious not to blunder, began to fulfill the initial scholastic requirements. There were many activities to relieve the monotony of studying, however. Our first definite action was to elect our officers who were: Reva Wells, President; Nancy Glass. Vice-President; H. L. Peavler, Secretary; Glenn Ray, Treasurer. Athletics was of major importance to us. The alacrity and ability of our boys who participated won for them the observers’ prediction of becoming attar players both in football and in basketball. The freshmen who took part in the bouts on the gridiron were: Joe Humber, Calvin Trisler, E. G. Duncan, W. D. Veatch, “Tiny” Foster, John Yates, John Phillips, and Bobby Leonard. Our promising basketball players were: Jack Park, J. C. Powell, E. G. Duncan, David Reed, and Hi L. Peavler. “Pud” Smith was elected our cheerleader. The various clubs were a source of pleasure and enlightenment. Our upper class-men, out of respect for our abilities, elected some of us as officers in the organizations. Nancy Glass was Vice President of the Latin Club, Ruby Smith held the position of chief executive, and Frances Phillips of treasurer of the Junior Girl Reserves Club. E. G. Duncan was President and Archie Lacefield was Secretary of the Junior Hi-Y Club. Many of us enjoyed our membership in the Glee Club. We had a number of youthful dramatists in our midst. As partners with their older colleagues, Nancy Glass, Celia Moore, Charlotte Corn, Arch Lacefield, David Reed, J. C. Powell, “Pud” Smith, Jack Park, and Elsie Jeanne Stokes struggled through numerous debates with a majority of victories to their credit along with valuable experience. Several of this group also won individual honors in the national Forensic League. The next year, more self-reliant and determined to succeed, we again made the school conscious of our presence in scholastic achievements, athletics, and dramatics. V c selected as our officers: E. G. Duncan, President; Reva Wells, Vice President; Jack Park, Secretary; and H. L. Peavler, Treasurer. In December an event occurred destined to affect every one of us. America entered the Second World War; nevertheless, we continued our tasks and pleasures normally for the remainder of the year. The Junior year is always an important one, and ours was no exception. Our President, J. C. Powell; Vice President, Reva Wells; Secretary, H. L. Peavler, Treasurer, E. G. Duncan competently handled our affairs. Our Junior Minstrel and Play received the public’s enthusiastic approval. Talent was exhibited to a marked degree. Soon we felt the sting of war. The sacrifices involved became real and acute when several of our young men went into the service of their country. But we at home were resolved to do our share in providing essential material. Our immediate weapon was scrap. We heeded the emergency by scouring the town and country-side until we had salvaged approximately eighteen tons, equivalent to over two hundred dollars. The Juniors on the basketball team, including Jack Park, H. L. Peavler, E. G. Duncan, J. C. Powell, David Reed, and Bobby Leonard, were a dominant factor in -22-
