This is your sports commentator, Maurice Stirewalt, bringing you the year’s most outstanding annual event, The Cotton Bowl Game, Landis Yellow Jackets v.s. Notre Dame’s Fighting Irish. There are 150,000 spectators seated here in this beautiful, spacious stadium, donated to the school by the multimil- lionaire, John Alexander, who now has a sore finger from punching tip boards! Ah_ now! handed me by Frank Wilhelm, my as- Here’s the line-up just sistant. This promises to be one of the most exciting games ever played in his- tory of this famous bowl. Coach Arnold Yates’ charges are a slight underdogs, even Notre Dame though his assistant, Philip Bostian, has been scouting Coach Gene Butts Landis team the past few games. All you radio listeners and television fans will be interested to know that this is the gala ‘Homecoming Game”, hon- oring the alumni of 1950-1951. Among these guests, we see such notable stage and screen stars as Harold Christopher, Cooke, Dorothy Towell, and last, but not least, Catherine Douglas Doris Long, Allman, who is now starring in ‘The Big Mouth.”’ There seems to be quite a com- motion in the Northwest stands! Don’t be alarmed! Just that daffy comedian Lawson Kluttz, entertaining his fans. PROPHECY We also have with us today some of the world’s great beauties. There’s Janie Drye and Frankie Shinn, two of Clayton Steele’s gorgeous models from New York. Steele is also a hell-driver on the side. | might also add that these two lovelies are wearing some of the original fashions that won first prize in Paris, designed by Faye Cavin, Doris Bost, and Jettie Leazer, the world’s tops in dress designers. New York State Teachers College is well represented here today. There’s Phyllis Roseman, Nancy Wright, Nita Clodfelter, Mildred Goodman, Nancy Goodman, Mary J. Clark, Lois Miller, Betty Litaker, and Johnsie Weaver look- ing very intellectual and bored! Well, well, look up at the end of the field. There comes the Landis Hi Band. And look at those majorettes go. Direc- tor Bobby Cavin certainly has made a name for his band. They've really come out these past few years. | believe they're going to play for us now. No— there goes Director Cavin over to chat with his lovely wife, the former Miss Thelma Karriker. They’ve been quite busy this week-end, with all the conven- tions in town. This certainly is convention season around here. Let's see— over in the West end of the stadium is a crowd of the ‘Textile Engineers of the World.” Among them are Jerry Fields, J. T. Good- CLASS man, Billy Lewis, Ray Pethel, Fred Steen, andro sDaetird: Over to the left of them | see a crowd of lovelies. Ah! They are the instructors of the ‘Secretarial School of Stenogra- phy’’; Betty Yates, man, Doris Upright, Betty Daniels, Jose- phine Bebber, Deal, Ethel Karriker, Ruth Jones, and Donna Jean Rose- Clara Lee Deal, Jean Arlene Foutz. There is also a convention of ‘Home Makers of America”’ here in the city this week. The former Miss Corena Hampton was selected ‘’ldeal House-Wife of the Year,’’ with runners up; Julia Goodnight Barbee, Hazel Seabolt Wilson, Faye AIl- man Glenn, and Carolyn Freeze Faggart. The are well represented here today. There’s “Future Farmers of America’ Dallis Campbell, George Deal, Gene Fag- gart, Calvin Foutz, Buddy Patterson, and Bill Wise. We just received word that Verlene Kimball, Eva G. McClamrock, and Rosa- lie Eddleman, ambassadors to Switzer- land, are with us today. They report that our relations with Switzerland are hope- less. They also predict a shortage of Swiss Cheese. It’s almost game time now as we see the long white ambulances take their places in the usual position. There are the petite and capabl e nurses—. Do my eyes deceive me? Nol! Goodnight, It’s Carolyn and Frieda Sloan. With PROPHECY 20 nurses like those, no wonder so many of the lads get hurt. And look who the ambulance drivers are—Allyn Sloop and Audy Bostian. We interrupt this broadcast to bring you a short news flash: An overcrowded bus, driven by James Clark, carrying — ‘“’Rebiuth Little Record’s’’ employees, and a shipment of her latest record releases, crashed into Lewis Vernon’s Gambling Casino, injuring play-boy Worth Efird. Pressley Beaver, Dean of Cow College, and many other passengers on the bus suffered serious injuries. Peggy Beaver, owner of the beauti- ful Beaver Colisium, has just announced that the game between the two all-Amer- ican Basketball teams owned by Joan Eller and Nathalane Murphy will not be played because the entire Eller team is in the hospital being treated for poison- ing which was received from food eaten in Barbara Fain’s restaurant. Here’s a hot piece of news. Clayton Steele has just won the annual Soap Box Derby. Ritchie special. Steele’s running partner, He was driving a McCreary- Gene Parsons, finished a close secon d. Now back to the ball game. What's this? informing me due to lack of time we | have just been handed a notice will not be able to broadcast this Cotton Bowl Game this year. Tune in next year, same time same station to another thrill- ing game.

Secession! For eight years we had suffered under the jurisdiction of grammar school teachers. We meant to spend four years, if neces- sary, learning the fundamentals of being free people. Well, now the hour of secession draws nigh. Soon we will be leaving the site of all our preparation to take our place in the true South. Before we part with the memories of this old plantation, let’s look back and determine what we have accomplished. Before we arrived there, our coming was announced by Master McCreary, who warned other slaves that the wildest, roughest, noisiest slaves in the history of the school was about to descend upon them. We lived up to all expectations. We tried to start a revolt by electing as our leaders (all boys) Arnold Yates, Dale Mills, Ralph Barnhardt, and Philip Bos- tian with Mrs. Earl Cavin as our head Mistress. A few of our members turned their energy toward sports. Clayton Steele, football; Joan Eller, and Arnold Yates, basketball, many in baseball and Clara Howell a cheerleader. Yes, suh, we were pretty well pleased w ith the way things were going now. Arnold Yates almost passed English! We returned to L. H. S. the next September and found that, even though we had been separated during the sum- mer, we were still firm of purpose, we were determined to secede. Our officers were chosen first so we could get off to a good start. They were Joan Eller, Gene Butts, Corena Hampton, Carolyn Goodnight, and Doris Bost. Now we began to be recognized in organizations. Joan Eller was elected as Second Vice President of the Student 26 Body for the following year. Carolyn Goodnight was voted as ‘’Miss Landis High.’ Can you imagine the two higher classes voting for two of our own little ol’ pickaninnies. | We found in our sophomore year that school wasn’t all pleasure and plan. With algebra, biology and English our time was pretty well taken up. But we still had time for the usual pleasures, skating parties, Christmas party, hay ride and wiener roast and a swimming party. The. biggest difference in our lives as tenth graders from our lives as fresh- men was our importance. No _ longer were we looked upon as _ insignificant brats. We contributed a great deal- to sports with Arnold Yates, Joan Eller, and Clayton Steele still ““on the ball.”’ We were fortunate to have five cheerleaders from our class; Corena Hampton, Thelma Karriker, Nancy Wright, Janie Drye, and Nita Clodfelter. Summer vacation was soon on us again, and we had to leave for a while, of course, that didn’t break our hearts; we needed a vacation. And we knew that when we returned next year, we would have a heap to do with the way this plantation would be run, and we meant to do it right. Arnold Yates passed English. Juniors at last. The summer had been fun, with all the trips and various affairs, but we were ready to take up our duties once again. Many more of our members had joined up with Col. Hamrick’s charges and were looking forward to a success- ful campaign on the gridiron. We had it too, winning eight and losing only two. Yes, sir, powerfully good season. Then, in basketball, one of our mem- bers ‘‘Melba Overcash’’ won national recognition and we were very proud of her! CLASS HISTORY We had so much to do that year that we thought little about secession. There was the Halloween Play and Car - nival sponsored by our class to raise money, the Junior play ‘“A Readymade Family,’ a valentine party, and the gala affair the Junior-Senior banquet at which we honored the Seniors Dutch style at the Concord Hotel. Under the able leadership of Bobby Poteat, John Ritchie, Evelyn Beaver, Frankie Shinn and Carolyn Goodnight ’ our class prospered as Juniors. Yas, suh, our Junior year proved to be the most successful and the most pleasant we had had. One event after the other added up to make our year one of upmost enjoyment. Of course, our ad- visors Miss Barrier and Mrs. Fowler were very patient with us. We studied and played our way through for nine months and hated to see them draw to a close, although our senior year loomed ahead brightly. It also promised to be a year of happiness our last on the old planta- tion. Arnold Yates passed English. “Seniors so mighty.” No longer would we be looked down on. We had reached the top and meant to let L. H. S. know it. No longer were we slaves; in- tead we were masters of the school; all grades were under our power. In nine short months our days at the plantation would be over and we would realize our goal, secession! Only now we weren't so sure that we wanted to leave. Many of our classmates had dropped by the wayside during the summer but the rest realized our duties and began. First we went about electing officers for the various jobs that had to be done as seniors. We chose a good crew. Carolyn Goodnight and Frankie Shinn were elected big wheels of the annual; Gene Parsons, John Ritchie, Carolyn Good- night, Nancy Wright, and Rebiuth Little oN were selected to lead the senior class. Verlene Kimball was elected president of the student body (a reward she richly de- served); Joan Eller was chosen as first vice president and various other seniors filled important posts. Another year of Col. Hamrick’s win- ning teams flew by with our class filling most of the places in all three sports. Joan Eller and Arnold Yates were the most outstanding and we were proud of them. This year had sped by so fast it is hard to realize that it is almost over. There had been so much to do—the sell- ing of magazines, receiving class rings, the Senior play ‘‘One Foot in Heaven,” directed by our capable director Mrs. Peiffer, Halloween Masquerade Ball, another successful Junior Senior Ban- quet, the coming of annuals—everything had added up to happiness, success, and regret. Only one more question re- mains: Will Arnold Yates pass English? Yes, the hour of secession will soon be on us. Sometimes we wonder if it is the right thing to do. We've had a lot of fun here, and we’ll never forget the friends, the pleasure, the studies, the teachers, the clubs, and everything that we've done since we’ve been here. An indifferent person may say that we haven‘t accomplished anything worth- while, but | for one, and the rest of you seniors (the best class that God ever assembled) will agree that it seems im- possible that any group of human beings could cram as much together as we have in these last four years at L.
