SENIOR CLASS HISTORY As the class of '61 entered High School as new delegates in the student body, we looked ahead enthusiastically to work, leadership and fun. Our fresh- man year found Cora Glidden as President, aided by Betty Rounds, Vice-President, Sharon Kingston, Secretary and Claudia Wilson, Treasurer. Mr. Boatwright was our class advisor. We soon learned the correct proceedure for our class meetings and launched a campaign of money making that lasted our four years of High School. We ended our freshman year with a picnic at Lazy River, a day of fun which we will all remember. When our hard working class came back to start our sophomore year, we had lost Ronnie Raven in a tragic accident which shocked all his friends and class- mates . Realizing the need for much money for our pending Senior Trip, we set our goal and money making projects were among our main thoughts. Our class offices were amply filled by Cora Glidden as President; Richard Mayhew, Vice-President; Bererly Cutway, Secretary; and Betty Rounds as Treasurer. Mrs. Hendee was our class advisor. At last in the fall of '59 we were Juniors and among the leaders of our student body. The excitment of ordering our class rings lasted from November to April when they finally arrived. The next month, May, found us working endlessly on preparations for the annual Junior Prom. Our theme was KISMET and thought by all to be beautifully presented. Our King and Queen were Aubrey Duvall and Karen Badger. Their attendants were Brenda Burcume, Princess, and Kenny Chambers, Prince. Our Junior Class was led once again by Cora Glidden as President; Betty Rounds, Vice-President; Beverly Cutway, Secretary; and Claudia Wilson, Treasurer. We re-elected Mrs. Hendee as our advisor and received a great deal of guidance and advice as we had the year before. Finally came the home stretch.1 Seniors at last ! This was our most important and busiest year of High School. For our final year we elected Lee Hutchinson as President; Kenny Chambers, Vice-President; Beverly Cutway, Secretary;- Claudia Wilson and Cora Glidden as Treasurer and Assistant Treasurer. Mr. Carbol and Mr. Petrie amply filled the frustrating job of co-advisors. Our last year was filled with many activities to raise money. We had record hops, suppers, a winter carnival and a lovely Winter Ball. Everyone became very tired of potatoes, salads and dishes before our goal was reached. It seemed as though our musical-dancing interests had been suddenly limited to the Twist . Our goal was finally reached and we were at last ready for our long awaited Senior Trip. The entire student body was saddened by the accident that happened to Beverly Cutway, the Secretary of the Class. Beverly spent several weeks in the hospital, but even at that she still contributed to this yearbook as Art Editor. Many thanks, Bev 1 You can't imagine how beautiful Washington really is until you see it. The huge white buildings, the long steps up the Washington monument, the Capitol, the Museums and our home The Raleigh are among our fondest memories. We were a very tired but very happy class when we reached home. Our tales about the trip have never ceased to be a source of amusement, either to our fellow students or our fellow classmates. Graduation day at last ! All of us had looked forward to this time but now we were looking fondly back to the wonderful years behind us. Were we ready for ti-.e world and our various chosen careers? We hoped so and mentally thanked each person who had worked so hard in preparing us for gradiiation. Each had made Plans to further his education and so the class separated to make new friends and reach a new goal in life. Graduation was a big turning point in all our lives and we wish to thank 17 our parents, teachers and friends for the help in planning our many different careers. Cora Glidden, Literary Editor
