others failed to keep our rank, but our faithful group, consisting of 29, did at no time give up the struggle for the reward which was to come. Our sponsors, Mrs. Bruce Harrison and Miss Rowena Marshall directed our Senior play, Grow- ing Pains which was a three-act comedy. One of the most outstanding activities of the year was basketball. Glenn Young, Jack Hankins, Robert Garland, and Hilton Edwards earned let- ters and sweaters on the first team basketball squad. We find Peggy Miller and William on the cheer leading squad again for the third conse- cutive year. They have really worked hard and done their part in every way. Colleen Parker was in trio and Glenn kept his place in the quartet. Our class won the Carnival Queen Contest and Colleen Parker was crowned Queen. With the faithful and untiring help of Mrs. Glisson, the Senior Class was able to publish this 1946 edition of the HEATH PIRATA. Commencement night, in the hearts of each Senior, there was a sadness felt because of the realization that this would be the last time they would be associated together as the class of 1946. -WARREN SMITH Q13 Our School Day by Day SEPTEMBER Sept. 4- School daze again: there'll be some changes made, Bagwell.

CLASSMATES 'iff At last! Dear classmates ' Our horizon is near, We are continually approaching, Never without thrills of fear. On independent pathways, We will soon have to go 5 Which roads we will take, Only God can know. Many things have happened, In our little realm g That we will rernernher When other things grow dim. Some of us were durnh, Others were smart, All the world is a stage We play our part. Time is quickly passing, Like a fleeted hand, Tirne goes on forward, Carrying modern rnan. So let us accept the challenge, To prove to God and Nation, That we of this age, Were worthy of creation. -SEBREE ALLEN Page twenty-four
