Paul Bybee, Billie Bob Robinson, and James Heflin were strolling up and down the hall, shaking hands with seniors, campaigning to the best of their ability. Each was trying to make a deep impression on his classmates. The candidates not only for presidency but also for every other office were smiling for votes. Cecil Nixon, Frances Bishop, and Vera Luce were giving their most convincing campaign speeches. Then came the day the votes were to be counted. All the seniors breathlessly awaited the final count. The news was out ! Paul Bybee led the race for president with 223 votes, with Billie Bob Robinson a second. For vice-president came little Frances Bishop. She carried the election with 206 votes, with Cecil Nixon second. In a very close race for secretary Mary Bob Coughran led with 191 votes to Virginia Vaughan’s 129. Mary Aline Earhart won the race for treasurer with 185 votes, while Marvin DeWoody won with 235 in the race for sergeant- at-arms.
