I 1 1 1 CC ' 77 0 Breaking The Ground CLASS HISTORY By Shirley Ann Canaday Character is thc Cornerstone of Successg a motto adopted by the Class of '53. Just as a corner- stone reflects the personality of a great building to follow, so does it reflect the great amount of work that has already been achieved in bringing the sturdy foundation up to that point where it is capable of receiving the cornerstone. 'Way back in 1941 A. D., a sturdy group of young Americans started to dig into the virgin soil of education, tearing at the rocks and roots with tender mind and hand. This charter group might have been easily despaired had it not been for a capable job foreman by the name of Miss Josephine Long. Many of the original group accepted similiar work in other localities and had to move, but thirteen of that group kept picking away at the footing and watched it grow in depth and breadth even as their character kept pace. They are here even now-Fae Hamilton, Louise Long, Lola Jean Hancock, Dottie Humphries, Dennis Hough, Jack McVVhirt, Marvin Bedsaul, Carol Sue Cantrell, Harold Chaney, Joene Cotter, Shirley Jean Hall, Peggy Tevis and Shirley Ann Canaday. In the fall of 1942, Miss Marie Scheer became the foreman, but no new Workers were added. In 1943, Mrs. Marjorie Carney became foreman and recruited additional help in the persons of Norma Sparks., Margaret Ellen Daldrup, and Louise Smith. The work of digging the footing prospered and character became evident. By 1944 the excavating was nearing comple- tion and Mrs. W'aneta Lane became foreman and Connie Wnittenburg appeared with her pick and shovel, ready to lend her weight to the task of Character building. ,Although the work was progressing nicely, additional help was always welcome and in 1945 Miss Grace Turner accepted the foreman's job and Garmin Jennings and Donna Petre arrived on the scene. , The year 1946 was a memorable one inasmuch as it meant that the spadework was finished and we shall say that the sixth phase of endeavor had been completed-in that year we were ably guided by Mrs. Ted Boosinger and strengthened by the arrival of Betty Brown, Warren Ferris, John Fort- ney and Larry Parker. In the Fall of 1947 things really began to hum, Character building had reached the point where it Was ready for building the forms that were to re- ceive the sinews of concrete and steel. The expert in charge was Mrs. Marie Hampton, and the new recruits were erry Kephart, Bill Moretini, Rowena French, J ack Penrose, Robert Morrow, and 'Virginia Hough. , To the steady rhythm of hammer and saw, Mrs. James Krockenberger took charge of operations and she was everywhere The Foundation must be true and straight the Cornerstone must have a solid footing and in that year of 1948 Dianne Musser Joined the group of now skilled workmen and Women 1949 1S a year we shall long remember for 11 neymtn but real honest to goodness Freshmen- ably guided by foreman Mrs. Forrest Garrison and tremendously strengthened by the appearance of Ronald Phelps, Mary Alice Dean, Martha Howard, Patricia Ann I-lallar, Donna Sue Jones, Dorothy Sechrest, Dale Corkran, Loyd Hite, Janice Maloney, Bob Carlyle, Allan Dean, Mike Ford, John Graham, Donald Kephart, Russell McCannon, Don McVey, LeRoy VanGilder, and James XVarren. At the Half-Century mark of 1950, the forms were filled., the pattern set, and the building of character kept pace under the direction of Mr. C. VV. Garey and some skilled workmen, by the name of J. C. McLanahan, Marva Jean Stockton, and Don Helton, who arrived in that year. By 1951, Mrs. Opal Xvilliams supervised the removal of the Wooden forms, but by this time the crew had grown to such proportions 'that two Eoremen were necessary and Miss Margaret Jones was very able in this capacity. No new workmen were- added that year, but time was found to present a play, entitled Love Your Neighbor, and also to give a bountiful Banquet to those who were about to graduate as Master Craftsmen. So it came to pass that in the fall of the year 1952 A. D. Mrs. James Krockenberger again accept- ed the responsibility for this vast group, together with Mr. YVilliam Stevens and at the same time Doris Reifsnider appeared to make the final effort. Again time was taken- to present a play, called No More Homework, ' and, it may be said here that many, many other activities, too numerous to be set forth herein, were achieved. The Foundation is now complete, it is strong and true, the Character that it embodies will ably hold the foundation stone of Success and these workmen and women have the knowledge and the skill to build upon this stone an edifice that will endure through the ages. It must be remembered, dear Reader, that although only the foremen of this drama were mentioned by name., that there was a vast organ- ization of architects and draftsmen and many others along the way that we shall group together and call Faculty and to this group we say in unison, Thank you, You Were wonderful. Sealing The Cornerstone By Jerry Kephart, Class President Faculty, friends, parents and seniors. lt has been an honor and an achievement to have bee11 president of this class for the past four years. Seniors, I have enjoyed it and my knowledge has been broadened by working with you, and receiving your full hearted support. It pleases me to see so, many familiar faces out tonight to help make our graduation a success. YVe, the seniors of '53, want to thank the faculty for its guiding hand through these long, hard twelve years. We want to thank our parents for their patiencfe and kindness which has and will serve as a headlight through our lives As we go out into the world to seek our goals may our chaiacter be our corner stone to success Though we all have a long road to travel' may it be bound with happiness and righteousness with God by oui sides each day Senlois good bye and good luck to all of you , . , O, .
