SI.AcI-4 When ve, the class of '-12. entered thi . school in 19218 as green freshmen, we hail one ultimate goal that we wisheil to achieve: to graduate. linring our four years we have en- joyed the plays, athletic contests, dan- ces, clubs, programs in the auditor- ium, summer vacations and contact with each other. We have been making memories that will stay with us a long' time. It has been a carefree jour- ney and we have enjoyed every minute of it. To all things there is an Elld. Our end seems to have come too quickly, for it seems that only yesterday we entered those big front doors with our dumb and amazed look at the happenings around us. Now has come the time which we have looked for- waril to. The time to say good-by. We are both happy and sad, because we lizive to bid farewell to our high Ftinnil days. We leave fur olil familiar life and unter a new one anticipating accom- plishment of great things. Because of the war many have had to forget the h4llL'1S ol' entering college. We leave in probably more troubled times than any other class has ever left high sc'ii-ol. XVe go to o Ir new walk of lifeg some to the armed forces, and others to shops, offi':es and factories, each hoping by his training to make this ol-l war-torn, e o n f Ll s e d, suffering xtorlrl ll bettur place to live in. In l'-avina' we bid farewell to: our devoted principalg to our loyal spon- sors: Miss Morton, Mrs. Paris, Miss Kibler, and Mr. Askewg to all who have been so faithful to us: to lVlI'. Porter. to the freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and to each other. We talge with us a person who has been loval to us and to many other high school students as well. Mrs. J. Y. Paris. We honor her for the many hours she has spent with us and for her faithful work with us. We wish her the greatest of happiness and may she be loved always as we love her. It's been nice knowing all of you, and being with you here. Good luck, happiness and success to you in your future life. THE GREATEST YEAR This year 1941 and 1942 has been the greatest that Henderson High has ever known. We have had one of the best athle- tic years there has ever been. In Football we made a splendid record, winning 6 and losing 4 games. The Basketball season was the best that any team in Henderson High has ever had. Both the girls and boys teams won the Golden Belt Tourna- ment. The girls ended their fourth consecutive year of undefeat. The Plays, Dances and Banquets have surpassed all that came before. The Junior-Senior was the best yet because every one that came could find something that he liked to do. The graduating class is the biggest yet to come. They have made their last year the most successful of all years. T.hey leave this building just as pretty as they found it, and hope that all classes that follow will do the same. They can truly say they hate made this year count. They leave a record that will be hard to surpass. That's a challenge to all of the lc wer classes. Here's hoping you make far greater records than they. HISTORY OF Tl-IE CLASS OF i942 FRESHMAN YEAR UFFICI-IRS Presirleiit ......,...

IVIARY HARRISON As we entered high school, we were a joyous lot, for we were the second group of freshmen to enter the new building. All of us were en- thusiastic over entering the new school and being able to take part in the physical education program. However, the largest group of fresh- men ever to enter the high school up to that time found out that there was to be more work than pleasureg so we settled down to work in order to finish the next four years. The most important event to oc- cur in our freshmen year was the class play. The freshman class pre- sented the play, Polly-Anna. In this play, Jo Newell carried the lead- ing role with other ll'lE'l11bGl'S of the class co-starring with her. Our play went off in a successful manner and gave the class great pride and joy. After the play, there was little to look forward to except summer va- cation, so the members of the class settled down to work and determined to pass, so next year they would be sophomores instead of freshmeII.

RICHARD JOHNSON As sophomores, we felt a little more certain of our standing in high school and were able to greet the in- coming year with an air of superio- rity. This feeling was soon dispensed with, however, and we were ready to lend a helping hand to all the in- coming freshmen who needed it. As sophomores we had become attached to the school and to the facultyg we knew that the training which we were receiving would in later life be the means by which we were to se- cure our livelihood, and so settled down to work with little thought of other things until the time arrived for the preparation of the sophomore play, For our play that year, the facul- ty sponsors selected a tragedy, The Dark House. With the aid of able faculty coaches, the members of that cast were able to give a fine perfor- mance before a large audience. Another important event to many of the sophomores was the Junior- Senior banquet given that year. Out of the sophomores were selected twelve couples to act as waiters and waitresses. Also at that banquet, we entertained the Juniors and Seniors by giving two dances: the Virginia Reel and the Polka Dot. During that year some of the sophomores were also members of the various athletic teams and gave a fine showing in their performances. That year, most of us took one Inore step up the ladder and next year returned to be upper classmen. JUNIOR YEAR oi-'FICERS Ijesffifiiifh .,... JAMES A.

There were a number of important events which occurred in that year. The first was the class play which was a hilarious comedy. The leading role in Foot-Loose was played by Billy Slack, a student well fitted to the role. The play of our junior year was most successful and the mem- bers of the cast felt well rewarded when they gave their play to our ap- preciative audience. The next important event was the Junior-Senior banquet which we were te give for the seniors. All members of our class took a hand and helped to prepare one of the best Junior- Senior banquets ever to be presented in Henderson High School. The ban- quet of that year was given to re- present a South American fiesta. The atmosphere and surroundings were truly South American, and the dames wiped away all doubt of this being a fiesta in South America. All enioyable years have some sad points: for it was in our junior year that we lost six boys of our class. They were, however, lost to a wor- thy cause, for they enlisted into ser- vice in the following manner: Silas Robarts-navy: Charlie Wortham- armyg E ugene Grissom-navy: James Grissom- army: Vernelle Turner-navy: Clarence Satterwhite -air corps.

JOHNSON lficc-Pi-esicleiit ,L RICHARD JOHNSON Secretory ,.......,,,, JEAN DIXON Treriszirer ..,,,.,, DALTON HARPER At long last we had reached the too. VVP were this year the digni- fied seniors of high school. The class was on the last rung' of the ladder leading to the opening of life and the events that occurred in this year were many. Our class play was of the ro- mantic type with Maria Legg and Thomas Faulkner taking the leading roles. This play was considered a great success and crowned the dra- matic activities of the senior class. During that year, the class elect- ed renresentatives to be the guests of the B. P. W. and Kiwanis Clubs of Henderson, a custom followed each year. Also the best all-around boy and girl were chosen to he the guests cf the Kiwanis Club along with the principals of the schools. The senior superlatives were cho- sen. there lacing twenty couples to be presented. Following this the valedictorian and salutatorian were announced, Thomas Faulkner and Ernestine Smith, respectively. At last we were in View of the end of high school and the beginning of a new era in our lives. There were feelings of joy, but to all, there was to be a feeling of regret at havinv' to leave this beloved school that had for four years been our homes.
