Since I had been going about my duties at Indianapolis City Hospital for four years after my graduation as a student nurse, and was due a vacation of a few weeks, I decided to fulfill my desire for traveling. I boarded a train and had gone some distance before I noticed a face among the pas- sengers that seemed familiar and to my astonishment it was my old classmate, Carolyn Newman. We were able to obtain scats together and we began to recall the old days together at Hcbbards- ville High School. Carolyn told me that she had just come from oveascas with the Army Nurse Corp, where she had obtained her training in Cadet Nurse Corp. Together we decided to look up some of our old classmates. When we arrived at a Chicago Station, Carolyn and I decided to alight and sec the city. While we were walking down Madison Avenue, we entered the Powder Puff Beauty Shoppe, and to our surprise, we found our old friend Frances Golday, the proprietress, where her own styles of hair dress are quite popular. While we were there, she told me that Louis Tapp, attorney at law, was doing well breaking up criminal cases in Chicago and is expected to go far as Chicago’s most promising young attorney. Traveling from Chicago to New York we decided to visit an old schoolmate of ours, E. C. Doc” Boatmon who is now president of General Motors. We found his secretary was none other than our happy-go-lucky classmate, Martha Heinz. While in New York, Carolyn decided to stay and visit with a friend she had met in Hawaii. I resumed my travels alone and stopped in Texas to see those world-famous Texas long- horns. I stopped at a ranch and whom should I find as owner — none other than Claude Wil- liams, better known to his classmates as Jeff”. Arriving in Sheridan, Wyoming, I decided to visit with another old classmate. I had been informed that she was nursing at Memorial Hospital. Entering the hospital, I was directed to the superintendent’s office. I found there none other than the efficient Edna Broadley. While I was there talking with Edna of old times she told me she had received a letter from our old classmate, Marshall Galloway, who is now a Captain in the United States Merchant Marines. Returning home I stopped over in Oklahoma, and to my amazement whom should I meet but Hilton Hazlcwood, engineer for the War Department, on special orders. Arriving in Evansville, Indiana, I w'ent up to the largest college of Evansville, Lockyear’s Business College. I had been told one of my former classmates, Mary Martin Musgravc, was president of this college. I remained till after lunch and told her of my visit with our old class- mates. While there she informed me that Charles Reach had just finished his medical course and is now a practicing physician in Owensboro, Kentucky. Bcttyc Overton, our old classmate from Zion, is quite at home in the role of housewife in her cozy cottage on one of the largest farms in Henderson County. When I finally reached home I was tired but happy. I found among my mail a letter bearing a familiar hand writing. It was from my old friend, Anna Elizabeth VanBussum from England. She is a Red Cross nurse and she was writing me to sec if I could locate any of our classmates. I was filled with pleasure and contentment for I could tell her just where each of the Seniors of ’4 5 is at the present. — LORENE GRIFFIN.

We, the Senior Class of the Hebbardsville High School, being of sound mind and having the fear of no human being before our eyes, save that of our principal and our superintendent, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament. To our faculty, we will our hearts full of gratitude for all they have done for us in the past years, realizing that without them our success would not have been accomplished. To the Juniors, we give and bequeath our seats on the right side of the auditorium with the request that the said scats be occupied with the gravity and impressiveness befitting our successors. To the Sophomores, we bequeath our wonderful intellectual powers which have brought us to our present enviable position. To the Freshmen, we give and bequeath all our courage, forbearance, and endurance, knowing out of our own past experience that only the strongest and bravest will survive the tests of four years and come at last to graduation. To the Junior High School, we will all the unsolicited advice, information, reproofs, and admonitions of our beloved teachers. We regret to add this burden to their lot, but we feel that anything so freely given away as said advice must be of trifling value, and not worth re- taining in our minds and memories when we depart from this institution. To all boys and girls everywhere, we give zest and zeal to enter and eventually to gradu- ate from high school. To certain underclassmen, we bequeath the following individual possessions: I, Betty Overton, do will and bequeath my quiet and dignified manner to Mary Jo Freeman. I, Claude Williams, do will and bequeath my worn geometry book to Leslie Clark. I, Lorcnc Griffin, do will and bequeath my desire to be an efficient nurse to Sara Crafton. I, Elbridgc Boatmon, do will and bequeath my Jitterbug Steps and wavy hair to Freddie Mills. I, Anna Elizabeth Van Bussum, do will and bequeath the right and connected honors of writing the class will of 1946 to Irene Staples. I, Martha Lou Heinz, do will and bequeath my giggles to Marie Moss. I, Marshall Galloway, do will and bequeath my ability for making love in school to Charles Davis. I, Edna Broadley, do will and bequeath my black, wavy hair to Anna Louise Hall. I, Hilton Hazlcwood, do will and bequeath my love for the teachers to Douglas Allgood. I, Carolyn Newman, do will and bequeath my ability to make friends to Mildred Williams. I, Louis Tapp, do will and bequeath my quietness and good manners to Edward Overton. I, Frances Golday, do will and bequeath my humorous character to Grace Wilson. I, Charles Reach, do will and bequeath my ability to argue and get flustrated to Murray Newman. I, Mary Martin Musgrave, do will and bequeath my ability as cheerleader to Virginia Bos- well. We, the undersigned, do hereby solemnly affirm to the best of our knowledge and belief this is the last will and testament of the Senior Class of Hebbardsville High School in the year 1945, and in the presence of the said class do hereby set our seal upon it. (Signed) Anna Elizabeth Van Bussum. Witnesses: Carolyn Newman Martha Lou Heinz
