CLASS HISTORY In September, 1947, fifty-five young graduates of grammar school entered High School and a new step of education. One section occupied the Science Room with Miss Burtie Carroll as home room teacher. The others occupied the Home Economics Build- ing with Mrs. Patterson as teacher. The next year we were Sophomores and Mr. Neal was our teacher. The room was slightly small for the class, so Mr. Neal sent some screwballs to the Commercial Room with Mrs. Newell Newsom as their teacher. Those who were transferred were Com- mercial students. NVQ lost .1 few of our grand total that year. David Covington and Sophia Mae Tilley moved. Calvin Tucker, Jack Cromer, Harry Lee Hall, Early Boyles, and Ruth Ann Smih had quit for different reasons. Opal Slate, ,Io Ann Boyles, Eunice XVall, and Margie Newsome had stopped school to enter another great step--matrimony. W'e added a new student that year-Jack James. The next year, as juniors, looking back to the grades that we had been in, we felt we had come quite a long way. NVe were in the Library with Mrs. Clifton Stevens as our teacher. Xve had lost several of our fifty-five that entered High School. There were forty-three in our class now. Before long, Eugene Wall, Percy Fulk, Punk Tuttle and Billy Jo Burrow had dropped out. Virginia Fulk and Maynard Holder didn't return from their Sophomore year. This was one of our biggest years in High School. In the Spring we ordered our class rings. Then on September 13, 1950. our order came. Our fingers really shined. In October, 1950, the Junior Class sponsored a Halloween Carnival to give the Seniors a Banquet. Our profits were fine. It was a job fixing for the Carnival, but still it was fun. On May 11, 1950, one of the most exciting events of our life occurred. At 8:00 p. m. we rounded up the Seniors, the faculty, and the Juniors for a semi-formal banquet on The Balinese Roof of the Robert E. Lee Hotel in Winston-Salem. Entertainment was pre- sented by Sara Ann Slawter, former King students, and students of the Junior class. Not any of the students will forget how pretty each one looked and the delicious ham we had for dinner. Everyone got home safe, at least that was the report. Marshals for commencement were: Sherrill Gray Hall, Sally Meadows, Phoebe Manring, Peggy Hall, and Melvin Southern. At the end of the year we hated to see the Seniors leave, especially the ones on the ball teams, but we were happy to realize that we were rising Seniors. The Class had their Junior Class party at Melvin Southern's house. We had weiners galore, Most of us were there, but of course, a few missed a good time by not coming. In the fall of 1950, thirty-six Seniors began their twelfth year at King High School, with hopes of graduating in May. We were in Room No. 1 with Mrs. Nell Voss as our teacher. W'e found that Odessa Smith had married, and Paul Nance had quit for unknown reasons. Bill Watts and Mary Frances Long had married in June, but they were back in school. This must have given Rachel Burge and Dale Kiser the fever, because it wasn't too long before they were married and back in school studying. Lennie Reid Priddy married Helen Denny, giving us the record of having five married Seniors. We decided to have our Senior Play in the fall-consequently we presneted Ghost House. In December, our grade parents, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Harris and Mr. and Mrs. Dewey Long, gave us a party at the Legion Hut where we exchanged gifts. The re- freshments were delicious and everyone enjoyed the good time they had. In February, the Senior Class received a letter from the President of Elon College, asking us to attend their Annual Senior Day. On Thursday, February 15, 1951, thirty- three excited Seniors boarded a chartered bus at King High School for their trip to Elon College. We arrived around 12:45 p. m. and were assigned a guide and given tickets for the ballgame between Elon College and Lenoir Rhyne College. We toured the campus, ate supper, saw a program at Whitney Auditorium, and then came the big event of the day-the ballgame. Elon Won! We boarded the bus for King around 9:45 p. m. and arrived in King at 11:30 p. m. During the latter part of February the annual Stokes County Tournament was held in King Gymnasium. Our class was well represented by Lorraine Robertson, Nell Baker, Sally Meadows, Phoebe Manring, Peggy Hall, Rachel Kiser, Dean Robertson, Roy Lee Harris, Orbin Kiser, Bill Watts, Doyle Cromer, and Boonie Whitman. Realizing that the time is drawing near for our graduation when most of us will separate, we would like to extend our grateful appreciation to our Principal, teachers, and fellow students at Dear Old King High.
