Mary Elizabeth: ' ' Remember how Miss Helen V ia, Miss Ethel Stone, and Mr. Heman A. Mar- shall worked faithfully, as new faculty members, to help us in any way they could.” Mildred: There were Senior presidents in three of the individual literary societies. In the Patrick Henry, Myrtle Spencer; in the Shake- spearean, Edith McGhee; and in the Lee, Mildred Jarrett. Samuel Flora and Edith McGhee were President and Vice-President, respectively, of the General Literary Society.” Lessie Mae: Yes, the Beta Club has a Senior president also, Connie Prillaman.” Myrtle: Our class this year included thirty- two seniors, however, Cupid interfered and Mar- garet Carter left us to become a housewife.” Mary Elizabeth: The Seniors winning letters for satisfactory service in basketball were Connie Prillaman, Doris Pegram, Mary Elizabeth Wade, T. F. Grogan, Warren McCall, Jack Helms, C. L. Woody, Posie Lee Collins and Samuel Flora. A Varsity Club was formed from all the students of Bassett High School participating in either basketball or baseball. Another Senior was elected president, Warren McCall. Seniors were captains of both boys’ and the girls’ teams, T. F. Grogan, of the boys’ and Connie Prillaman of the girls’.” Connie: Do you remember these dates? March 8, 1940 — We were honored by the Juniors at a Junior-Senior Banquet. April 19, 1940 — The Senior play was given in the High School Auditorium. March IS, 1940 — Bassett High School was a scene of great activity as Bassett’s young ladies met to see who wos fairest of all.” Mary Elizabeth: And on our graduation night, didn’t Edith McGhee deliver a grand vale- dictory speech and Connie Prillaman didn ' t do a bad job of the salutatory address cither.” Myrtle: Had you thought about it, that Miss Goode has been our home room teacher for three years? We really should appreciate her many efforts for our sake.” Mildred: Mr. E. Carl Hoover should be highly honored in his tenth year at Bassett High School. For four years he has been directly con- nected with our class in high school and never has he refused any of our reasonable requests.” Lessie Mae: To Mr. Hoover, Miss Goode, the faculty and lower classmen we extend our sincere gratitude for all their cooperation and favors shown this Senior Class of 1940. Fond memories of all of you and of days at Bassett High School will forever be foremost in our minds as we stand ready to take the vital step into the future.” Samuel Flora.
