class history Bennett College in Greensboro, North Carolina. Reginald Smith, Dorothy Shaw, Carolyn Carter, William Peacox, and Leotha Debnam attended a similar institute at Saint Augustine's College in Raleigh, North Carolina. Seniors at last !! Finally we reached the final phase in our high school education. We dwindled to 196 students, determined and looking toward that day in June when we would finally reach our goal. J. E. Burke, Mrs. G. H. Harris, Mrs. R. B. Williams, H. A. Poole, J. A. Abron, and Mrs. E. D. Toole were our advisors and William Peacox was senior class President. The other class officers were Vice President-Robert Manuel, Secretary- Sarah Morgan, Assistant Secretary-Helen Morrison, Treasurer - Leotha Debnam, Parliamentarian-Mac Arthur Penny, Historian-Diann White. Willie White and Freddie Curtis were elected co-captains of the senior-stocked foot- ball team. Willie White and Alfonza Jones were elected co-captains of the basketball team. Robert Allen and James Hines were elected co-captains of the baseball team, and Charles Copeland and Daniel Peebles were elected co-captains of the track team. One event that was eagerly anticipated was the election of Senior Superlatives. They were: Most Likely to Succeed - Diann White and William Peacoxg Wittiest - Louise Hunter and Eddie Turner, Most Co-operative - Natalie Wilson and Robert Sanders, Best Dressed - Carolyn Warren and Eugene Branch, Most Versatile - Sarah Morgan and Robert Allen, Most Attractive - Helen Morrison and Walter Ellis, Most Musical - Marie Bryant and Michael Keck, Most Studious - Diann White and Mac Arthur Penny, Most Pleasing Personality - Carolyn Jones and Freddie Curtis, Most Business Like - Hilda Austin and Robert Manuel, and Most Athletic - Gilda Adcock and Willie Dean White, Most Popular - Sarah Morgan and Herley Evans. Our class presented a five-act play- Pygmalion'i by George Bernard Shaw. The cast included Nelson Bost, Frances Williams, Duanna Freeman, Dorothy Shaw, Cornelia Gaddy, Geraldine Sanders, Carolyn Redfern, Kary Lewis, Gerald Latta, Clarence Leverette, Wilbert Jones, Robert Allen, Frank Turner and Leotha Debnam. The thirst for knowledge was not quenched by the hours spent at school. Over twenty Ligon seniors participated in the High School Scholars Program at Saint Augustine's Col- lege. Leotha Debnam and Robert Manuel were inducted in the National Honor Society and William Deloatch was admitted to the Mu Alpha Theta Mathematics Club. Many of the members of our class brought honor to themselves and their school by some special recognition. Patricia Pattishaw won 2nd place in the 1964 District Typing Contest. In 1962 James Reid won 3rd prize in the Physics division of the science fair. In 1963 Lawrence Reid won lst prize in the Biology division of the science fair. Though the track team was a neophyte, some of its members - Charles Copeland, George Gartrell, Daniel Peebles, Horace Robinson, Willie Holder, and Robert Sanders - won special awards at the Boy Scout track meet held at State College during the 1963-1964 school year. In the annual Jabberwock, Carolyn Carter, Beverly Hicks, Faye Eaton, and Patricia Thomas won special awards. Sandra Sanders received honorable mention. The athletic achieve- ments of Willie White are too numerous to mention. He excelled in tennis and football and won special recognition in both. Marie Bryant received certificates for participating in recent Omega Talent Hunts. Shirley Horton was chosen to represent Ligon High School at the 1963 United Nations Workshop at State College. Wilbert Jones, Robert Allen, Willie White, and Freddie Curtis brought special recognition to themselves by being chosen to play in the Shrine Bowl in Durham, North Carolina. Charles Copeland brought honor and fame to himself by being the fastest track runner in the state of North Carolina. Kary Lewis and Charles Copeland were praised because of their finesse at the piano and organ keyboards. - Our class has been very active in helping to get this Echo for 1964 completed. Some people who gave much assistance were Carolyn Judkins, Ralph Campbell, Hilda Austin, Janet Young, Patricia Thomas, Eugene Branch and Brenda Harris. As the year of our graduation closes, it saddens' our hearts to know that though we have been together for many years, the time has come when we must separate. From the threshold of this treasured edifice each of us will go. We go to spread our talents to the waiting world. The days have been enjoyable ones-ones that we may view in retrospect with great pleasure and delight. As we part, may we never be really separated but may we only loosen the links of our chain of 1964 graduates to include others. May we forever maintain the high ideals which have been instilled in us during our days within these treasured walls. May these ideals and others make us good citizens in an advancing society. Class Historian-Diann F. White f'
