THE SATELLITE 2 5 § 47 Senior Class History Allow your eyes to take a retrospective glance back into the past four years. Can you imagine the dignified class of twenty-five ever having been verdant Fresh¬ men—and yet we were. We entered high school fully expecting to play an im¬ portant part in various activities, but were soon taken down a notch or two by the upper classmen and found that it was best to be seen and not heard. Realizing early that more could be accomplished by organized members, we elected class officers, with Audrey Arthur as President. In our first year we dis¬ played our talents in athletics and other events. Our class established the repu¬ tation of being the best in school, which was well merited and has remained with us through our four years. Soon we advanced a few steps and were Sophomores. After experiencing the hard knocks of high school life for a year, upon beginning our second, we rapidly began to assert our authority over the Freshmen, according to the custom of all Sophomores. Officers were again elected, with Jack Worsham as President Many of the things that were said and done in this year have long been forgotten, but can any of us ever forget our beloved mathematics teacher, Mr. Shedd? The Sophomores seemed to be the objects on which he bestowed most of his “T’s, ” and were the victims of his round-up on each Wednesday afternoon, which often resulted in stampedes. Most Sophomores find reading Caesar very difficult, but we, however, did not, because in that advanced day and time we received our instructions by way of Pony Express. After completing a most successful year, we parted in June, having mutually agreed to meet in the same place three months later. We met again at the appointed time, but found that a number of our class¬ mates, discouraged by numerous “E’s” and “F’s” handed out by our cruel teach¬ ers, had failed to appear. Although sadly lacking in numbers, and regretting the loss of our Principal, Mr. Scarborough, we began the year by having the annual election of officers. Evelyn Belch was elected President with an entirely new staff of officers. The spring semester was a “Golden Age” for the Juniors. We were especially proud of the fact that out of six delegates who represented Hopewell High School in the State Literary and Athletic Contest at Charlottesville, three were members of our class. We also made an enviable record in athletics, having three letter men, and three girls who were awarded letters in basket ball for playing regularly and well. A popularity contest was carried through successfully in the school by the Juniors, this being the first event of its nature for a number of years. According to the custom of the school, that the same form of entertainment be given the Seniors at the close of the year, a banquet was given by the Junior class, which was greatly enjoyed by the members of both classes and faculty, and even the Seniors admitted that it was a success. This marked the close of our most important year—so far. It is quite impossible to combine all the accomplishments of so great a class as this into so small a space, therefore the minor discoveries, accomplishments and inventions of the class of ’25 must be omitted.
