Class AL THE STARS OF OUR GOLDEN YEARS As we, the senior class of 1966, review our past galaxies, we behold our golden years. These constellations were fixed with the stars of joy, sorrow, challenge, and accomplishment. Join us now in the parade of our various stars. In August 1963, the division of our first galaxy was the result of two separate freshmen classes, one at Hillside and the other at Whitted. The formation of our first constellation began with the leadership of Jeanette Burnette, President of the student body at Whitted, and Linda McAuley, President of the freshman class at Hillside. In the Mirror two radiant stars appeared: Alonzo Speight and Deborah Durham, editor and co-editor. The torch of the National Junior Honor Society was placed in the hands of a bright young cluster of stars: Noma Bennett, Jeanette Burnette, Henry Blake, Linda Boone, Marilyn Davis, John Dixon, Michael Hayes, Ada Fisher, Michael Geer, Joyce Gilchrist, Shirley Holder, Reginald Jenkins, Beverly Johnson, Judy Johnson, Retella Jones, Douglas Lunsford, Shelton Barrett, Willie McDonald, Eva McKoy, Eric Moore, Barry Parker, Rosetta Scott, Barbara Smith, Gloria Newkirk, Alonzo Speight, Eltonza McNair, Ethel Richardson, Gilda Hedgepeth, Linda McAuley, James Stewart, William McLaughlin, Rhonda Mangum, Beverly Washington, Jinetta Watson, and Deborah Watts. Some gained stardom through basketball: George Outlaw, Marvin Allen, Frank Brown, Daniel Mc Laurin, William Harris, and Gregory Monroe. Others appeared as track stars: Anthony Ford, George Tippy White, James Pap Hairston, and Reginald Dark. Our lone football star was Johnny Steele, cheered by Barbara Smith, Shirley Holder, Dolly Smith, and Diane Durham, Crowning our first constellation were Reginald Jenkins, Linda McClinton, and Eric Moore, the highest rank= ing students in our freshman class. We see the glories of two galaxies uniting to form our sophomore constellation under the leadership of Eric Moore and Linda Boone. The stars of the National Honor Society remained constant. Ervin Allen, Jackie McNeill, David Nickerson, and Wilbert Bo Bo Watson took their places among the stars of Hillside's football team. George Outlaw was selected as a Varsity basketball player. We see something new among the stars: a girl's track team! Kathryn Jordan, Dollie Smith, Bar- bara Smith, Barbara Alston, Diane Durham, and Beverly Washington were the Cinder-ellas. Thus we fixed this constel- lation forever in our memories. We were guided through our third galaxy by Ronnie Brandon and Dollie Smith. The stars of the National Junior Honor Society graduated to the National Honor Society, In the automotive competition Tezell Couch placed first in the state and second in the nation, Additional stars to the Hornet football team were Ralph Rogers, James Pasley, Thomas Covington, Shelton Barrett, Calvin Rogers, Benjamin Fletcher, Robie Coffin and Henry Blake. Clyde Lockhart was trainer. The 4-A All-State Basketball Champions of 1964-65 were William Harris, Michael Hayes, Daniel McLaurin, Gregory Monroe, James Pasley, Marshall Hill, and Hollis Vines, with George Outlaw as co-captain of the team. The Cinderfellas™ of our junior year were David Alston, Anthony Ford, and James Reaves. James Reaves, Barry Parker, John Poole, Bruce Weaver, and Richard Davis staked their claims to stardom with the baseball team. Swinging on a star with their tennis rackets were Perry Justice, James Stewart, and Curtis Brown. Stars of the stage were Gloria Scott, David Nickerson, Andre Talley, Douglas Lunsford, Ervin Allen and Michael Jones. Eric Moore and Linda McClinton served as chief marshals for the 1965 Commencement Exercises. The Junior-Senior Prom was the starlight of the year. The illusion of a Roman Holiday was magni- ficently created for the crowning of Gail Owens as Miss Junior Sweetheart. Junior Waltzers were Janet Overton, Linda Tedder, John Henderson, James Royster, Charlotte Johnson, Noma Bennett and Ronnie Brandon. We truly glowed, as we had lived up to our motto, The reward of a thing well done is to have done it. The forming of our fourth constellation began with John Dixon and Jeanette Burnette, leading the student body as President and Vice-President. The next stars to loom forth were President and Vice-President of the senior class--Douglas Lunsford and Gilda Hedgepeth. Bright stars reappeared with the installation of the National Honor Society. They included Deborah Watts, Rhonda Mangum, Ada Fisher, Rosetta Scott, Michael Geer, Henry Blake, Beverly Johnson, Barbara Smith, Alonzo Speight, James Stewart, Beverly Washington, Linda McClinton, Eric Moore, Kathryn Jordan, Noma Bennett, Catherine McDonald, Retella Jones, Douglas Lunsford, John Dixon, Linda Boone, Gilda Hedgepeth, Eva McKoy, Reginald Jenkins, Barry Parker, William McLaughlin, Linda McAuley, Marilyn Davis, and Shirley Holder.

The most gala affair of the year was the crowning of Gilda Hedge- peth as Miss Hillside for 1965-66. Her Maids of Honor were Gladys Braxton and Anne Bibby. A special runway was erected so that all might witness the crowning of her charm, grace, and beauty. The Homecoming activities consisted of selecting Peter Joyner, Ill, as Mr. Irresistible Hornet, Rag Day, Blue and White Day, the bonfire, and the Homecoming Extravaganza. Anne Maria Bibby was crowned Miss Homecoming. Attending her were Gladys Braxton and Linda Jefferys. The Chronicle was edited by Ronnie Brandon, Noma Bennett, and Andre Talley.
