 cut TiJitt cutcC t7e t inie tt We, The Senior Class of nineteen hundred fifty-four of Jasper High School, are aware of the fact that our time as students here is very short, and we think it wise to make our last will and rid ourselves of all personal properties that we have collected in the past four years.

LOCKSLEY HALL When I dipt into die future Far as human eye could see I saw the vision of the world And all the wonder that would be. As prophet for the class of 54, I, like Tennyson, dipt into the future and visioned what the members of our class would be in years to come. I found that— JoAnn DeBruhl is now teaching the third grade in New Bern School, while her husband, Charles Conway, is keeping the highways safe. Mary J. Stevenson, having achieved her life's ambition to be a D R E, is scattering good cheer and sunshine wherever she goes. Donald Hodnett, professor at State College, having so much work to do has hired Lynette Adams as his private secretary. Helen Marshburn, a regular nurse at John Hopkins' Hospital, still hasn’t found a recipe for gaining weight. Frances Atkinson seems to be very happy as receptionist for Dr. Frank Hosteller, the world famous dentist. Erma Ward never has had much trouble keeping pretty, but now she is running Ward's Beauty Parlor and keeping others attractive. Cleo Williams, our class's famous actress, is now playing the leading role in the latest movie on Broadway. Who ever thought she could do it? Frances Aldridge is now working in a T. V. shop. Since she thought it was cheaper to raise them by the dozen, I guess the money comes in handy. Wiley Moore has finally made a hit with the girls, and is happily married to Miss America of 1955. Go to it boy! Well, Howard Mills has finally decided to settle down to a peaceful life of farm- ing. I hear that he has one of the largest dairy farms in the state. Clara Ipock has decided to play the field for a while yet. I guess she can afford to with that Cadillac convertible she drives! My little boy came home from school the other day raving about his new teacher. It was none other than Ruth Banks. T. V. has just introduced a new star. I was surprised to find out that she was my classmate, Eunice Dail. It seems that she is very successful. Dixie Small is a waitress and proprietor in the Eat and Run restaurant down the street, Dixie's fried chicken is extremely popular, especially with the teen-agers. What do you know? Peggie Adams has settled down with the one and only boy. In high school she never could decide which one she liked best. After taking orders from Uncle Sam for 4 years, Clyde Daugherty decided that he preferred farming as an occupation. I hear that his farm is so large that a map is furnisned at the entrance. Yes, I had seen all the wonder that would be for our Senior Class of 1954. Caroline Ipock Prophet
