K Q' , ,Q , , 51 L, ,' fi 'A L S S1 fl I A Q Twelve years ago a group of youngsters with eager faces took their f'. .irst step on the ladder to success. Only three of the original are 'f, l left. They are Homer Smith, Jr., Loita Pinkston Singleton, and Mary jx, Virginia Roberts. The others lost their balance and fell off or left IQ, 2 1 for some other place of interest. - f, Q On the second rung Billy Weeks, Royce June Pritchard, and I enter- Q , 5' ed this happy group. During this year we lost some of our members but , 1 ,, we still had a large group. y As we were taking the third step, Shirley Martin decided to move V, along with our group on our upward climb. The year passed without any ? Q, outstanding events. The fourth year passed without any new members, but on the fifth T E rung Clara Graham added her talents to the group. 5 . On the sixth step, we students were Joined by Peggy Bomar. She 2 2 had grown tired of her school and had decided to try her luck with the 1 E Holland Students. lg 2 Margaret Hester, who has since become the most outstanding member, V g ' entered the class at the making of the seventh step. 5 The eighth rung was one of the goals we had planned to reach. We fx were now in the high school building, but we did not have very many 'I Q privileges. Everyone thought of us as 'those no1ly,e1ghth-greders.' f When we received our diplomas at the end of the year, our hopes were 'Q Q high. Just think, we would soon be high school students! ' Q' 2 If it had not been for the addition of two new members, Betty f 2 Q Whittle and James Parrish, the ninth step would have been disappointing. i i We were only 'green freshmen' to the rest of the high school, but James ' 5 and Betty were good athletes so this gave us some prestige. . - On the tenth rung, we had no additions but on the eleventh we A 'gladly accepted Ruth McCarrol1. Her smiles and clever ways enlightened 5 - our journey upward to success. ' of 3 At the beginning of our twelfth and f1nal.step we all looked back ' ' over the steps we had already taken and in the atmosphere below we saw 2 f fji a figure swinging on a rope. Everyone took hold and pulled this person Q 1 gfiig up. Each of us welcomed Anne Samford, who had decided to make the last 'Tfia four steps in three years. ,, , 9513 1This year we're also proud to have included in our class, James P -f gifs Reed Hicks, who had gone on before us, but had been delayed two years wT ,-f.. I when he answered the cell of duty and enlisted in the Navy. , wg, And now we're standing on the top rung ready to step out into ' life. Three members of our class have already chosen partners for the A rest of their journey. We extend to them, namely: Peggy Bomar Hatley, -A Loita Pinkston Singleton, and James Reed Hicks, the very best of wishes. 'Q' Others plan to go on to higher fields of learning. H' 1 As a member of this class, I feel that whatever the profession they I choose lmay I modestly exclude myself! that each of them will make a -e L worthwhile contribution, which will, in part at least, be due to train- 1 J ing they received in 'Old Holland H1gh.v 'ds Y ig Kathleen Ausburn - 9 K s Qs all flyllsls if as s sf e ff s 5 gf L11 ,gli S
