Class History This race of life we have run, We’ve come to school; much has been done, Some have lost many have won, Think not ’tis over; our history has just begun. Our class of 1951 has stored up during its four years at Logan High School many wonderful things, from the very moment we entered as dear freshmen until the exciting day in 1951 when our class realized that we would really be graduated. Our lives have been filled with great joy and rich experiences. Let’s reminisce a bit over our past years at dear Logan High. In September 1947, 35 boys and 48 girls began their high school careers. We were under the leadership of Mrs. Elizabeth Anderson and Miss Joyce Picot. The members in our class were very active in our school activities. Our class won Miss Tigerette and we presented a very interesting play during that year. We success- fully reached our first year in High School experience. When we became sophomores, our number had decreased a little. We were under the leadership of Mr. Jesse Clyde Banner and Miss Dorothy Rutledge. We were happy to see the year pass to know that we would be juniors for the next school term. We had a large number of juniors under the leadership of Miss Katie Jones. At our first class meeting we elected Andrew Handy Jr. - President, Jimmie Freeman - Secretary, and Harold Steele - Treasurer. The Red Cross repre- sentatives were Helen Howie and Mamie Lawings. Our class worked hard and we enjoyed entertaining the Seniors with a prom. Our class won the Miss Logan contest. In September 1950, students registered for the best and last mile of the long journey to graduation, under the leadership of Miss Dorothy Rutledge, with Thomas Johnson - President, Vice President - Andrew Handy Jr, President of the Athletic Association, Andrew Handy, Business Manager of girls basketball team - Mamie Lawing, James Smoot - Business Manager of boys basketball team, Hazel Faggart and Margaret Kiser - Patrols, James Smoot - drum major, and Helen Howie and Madie Mitchell majorettes of Logan High School Band. A number of our class members have a part in the band, under the leadership of Mr. Carl Foster. Captain and Co-captain of the football team are Walter Johnson and Willie Springs. School Reporter - Thomas Johnson. Members of Annual Staff - Betty Evans, Thomas Johnson, Jimmie Freeman, Helen Howie, Thelma Ford, Madie Mitchell, Geraldine Gaither, Willie Springs, Harold Steele, James Smoot, and Walter Johnson. Our journey has just begun toward the lofty peaks for the purpose of giving our service to God and Mankind. May God give us strength to continue our journey. Farewell, Farewell dear Logan, we hope that by living worthwhile lives our contributions to Logan High School will grow with the years. Class Prophecy On the hottest day of the summer in July 1960, I was trapped in a meeting with the executives of my luxurious dressmaking and designing shop. Expecting a badly needed rest, I relaxed and across the stage of dreamland appeared each of my 43 classmates. Starting in the southernmost parts of the nation, I found myself in Florida and I was engaged to have dinner at the Casablanca Club. After dinner, we were presented with a show of the latest fashions and Peggy Douglas was one of the models. While they were parading back and forth, the orchestra was playing with Mac Springs as the leader. The business manager was Herman Grant. After Florida came Tennessee and while visiting Fiske University, I met Betty Bruner and she told me that she was the instructor of music there and Thomas Johnson, Jr. was the basketball coach. From Tennessee, we came to North Carolina and in Charlotte, Rayfield Whitmire was working as a mechanic in a service station. Charlotte then Concord where I found Harold Steele as a city doctor and Margaret Kiser owner of a music studio and James Smoot coaching both the basketball and football teams at Logan Institute. Newark, New Jersey is noted for Newark City Hospital, and while visiting that remarkable place, I found Hilda Foard was a supervisor and Madie Mitchell, Elnora Pharr and Alise Pryer were nurses there. The dietitian was Christeen Bost. As I entered New York, Buffalo was first and Geraldine Gaither was the executive secretary to a big business tycoon. And in Rochester, McKnight Stafford was enter- taining at a fashionable night club. The pharmicist at the finest drug store there was James McCullough. I later met Hasel Faggart and learned that she was nursing a rich old widow. W ' hile going down Fifth Avenue, I noticed a large neon sign with Go Grover Caldwell and Associates, Inc. on it. Willie J. Asbury was business manager at the hotel where I was staying. From New York to Pennsylvania, where I attended a baseball game, only to see Julius Franklin playing professional baseball. My beautician while there was Jennie Smith. The bulletin in the hospital there read Jimmie Freeman, head obstetrical nurse and the other nurses were Mabel Richardson, Viola Harris, Willie Ivey and Addie Thompson. In Michigan, I wandered into an Electrical Appliance Co. owned by Andrew Handy Jr. Teaching Home Economics at the high school there was Lucy Starks and the band was under the direction of Marvin Caldwell, Jr. The English Department was in the card of Lee Verna Howell and the Industrial Arts Department was under the direction of Arthur Jenkins. Out in Texas, I found Geraldine Miller secretary of a great rancher and Virginia Love creating hair styles for 1963. Fred Marsh owned Marsh Mortuary there too. Then to California where Josephine Williams and Helen Howie were nurses and Thelma Ford was private secretary to a big movie producer. In Sacramento, Allen Peoples was a master mechanic at a television studio. In Beverly Hills, Mamie Lawings was tutoring Margaret O’Brien’s daughter. I was so tired that I decided to read the paper and this is some of what I read: Walter Johnson drawing up plans for Lana Turner ' s Old Age Home, Mary Hough to leave for the Gold Coast on fifth voyage as missionary, first publication of The Complete Poetical Works of Betty Evans now on press. Well, I have to give credit where credit is due, my classmates have really done well for themselves. And as my prophetic dream ended, I was pleased to know each of my 43 Senior classmates were well employed as well as happy. A £ The Tigers were led to victory by Mr. J. C. Banner, coach; Mr. T. E. Galloway, assistant coach; Willie M. Springs, captain; and Walter Johnson, co-captain. Wins By 7 To 6 The Logan High School Tigers edged the Anson County Training School Bulls of Wadesboro, 7-6, here Thursday night for their sixth successive football victory of the year. The game was a hard-fought bat- tle all the way. A crowd of about 1,000 witnessed a running duel be- tween the BullS’ Bill Gatewood and Logan’s Willie (Mac) Springs and Neither team displayed much on teams. rough and rugged line play by both passing, but their running games and vicious blocking and tackling made up for it. The Tigers com i , pleted only two of seven aerials ! f while the Bulls made but one good in eight attempts. An exchange of punts gave Logan the ball at midfield late in j the first quarter after Springs re- j turned a punt 20 yards.

Springs went off right tackle for the score and Coleman added the extra point, which turned out to be the dif- ference between a win and a tie. The Bulls’ score came late in the third stanza. Charlie Carson went off right tackle from the 12-yard line. Gatewood failed on a line buck for the extra point. Logan turned back another Wadesboro threat in the fourth period.

It’s up to us to carry on, To make our lives worthwhile, And do the things that we’ve been taught, To face life with a smile. We do not know our destinies, But we must carry on, And not give up our trying, Until all hopes are gone. Logan High has taught us. The things we’ll need in life, But not to expect all smoothness, But tears, hardships, and strife. We could not have had a better school, Than Logan to set us a sail, And if we do the things we’ve been taught, In life we’ll succeed -- not fail. =l‘ :i = Class Song Dear old Logan, dear old Logan, How we love thee. But the time has come for us to say adieu. Still within our hearts we’ll always keep your memory, There will never be another just like you. You have taught us stepping stones to lead us farther. Now it’s up to us for we must carry on. You have been our own dear Alma Mater. Yes, you’ve taught us and you’ve brought us. And we’ll never forget you dear Logan. For you’re the kind of school each child would like to have. Chorus Now the time has come for us to leave you, Logan. But we hate to have to say goodbye. Now we’ve gone to spread your teachings farther. Yes we love J you, and we honor you and we’ll never forget you dear Logan. i ' he Senior class has striven hard, To make our record good, And have a record we’d all be proud of, For all to see - Why anyone could. We know our task has not been easy, Our road has not been clear, We thought we’d never make the grade, It was so far - but yet so near. We can’t undo the things we’ve done, Or right the wrong we’ve caused, Or mend the hurt so harshly done, Where we went on, when we should have paused. But all has not been sadness, For most all was full of joy, We’ve had the kind of school life, That’s looked for by every girl and boy. And now we stand as seniors, Most all our work is done, We graduate with honor and glory, The class of nineteen fifty one. Betty Jean Evans. For you’re the kind of school each child would like to have. L I B R A R X Standing, Left to Right Walter Johnson, Asst. Art Editor; James Smoot, Feature Editor; Miss D. C.

In our first year (after the boys before us had dug the place out and made a shop), we started off by making little projects such as bench hooks, miter boxes, etc. After making all those different projects, we became more anxious to succeed. When we had finished little projects in the shop, we did lots of repair work for the school such as building steps for the elem- entary department, pouring concrete in front of the gymnasium and made a walk between the buildings. We also made lap boards for the American Red Cross. At the end of the year, we made different projects for May Day exhibits which were enjoyed by the people who saw them. Mr. E. J.

O, Foster, Director Logan Past And Present During the twelve years that we have been at Logan, Mr. James has helped to make this school a bigger and better one. We had hardships and lots of discouragements, but nevertheless, the school has grown to be a very beautiful one. During the year of 1928, there was only one building and three teachers. There are only four graduates in the class of 1928 and eight in the class of 1929. By the year of 1930, Logan was accredited by the Board of Education of North Carolina. Then later the home economics department was established under the direction of Miss Marie Katus. As the school journeyed on toward progress, a bus was secured to transfer county students to and from school. In April 1946, the builders trade department was constructed under the direction of Mr. E. J. Willie. It took hard work for the boys to finish the class room. Now that they have finished, the place is being used for bricklaying and carpentry which a group of our boys are enjoying. Our new auditorium was first opened for the students on June 2, 1950. We had our first graduation exercise in this most beautiful building. Later we plowed the ground and planted grass to beautify our campus. Then we laid down sidewalks. Our campus is a beautiful one. It seemed that Mr. Woodson was the first to attempt to turn the soil so the grass could grow. He began by having his boys fertilize the soil and then he planted the grass and later under the direction of Mr. Woodson and Mr. Willie, the boys laid the sidewalk and planted the grass which is now growing beautifully. During the 1950-51 term, there were two teachers added to the faculty. They were Mr. T. E. Galloway, our Science teacher, and Mr. M. L. Banner, our Physical Education teacher. The band made its first appearance with their majorettes in the colorful costumes at the Christmas parade. The students were greatly pleased with their performance. We, the members of the Senior class of 1950-51, wish to extend our thanks to the teachers and the principal for their most spendid work during the years that we were at Logan.

Galloway, the science department including the chemistry, general science and biology classes are doing wonderful work. The regular exper- iments performed are very colorful, interesting, and help the classes to under- stand better what they are being told. Typing Class This year, the typing class is composed of Juniors and Seniors. Under the supervision of Mrs. E. M. Polk, we have found this course helpful in many different ways. We hope that more students will become interested in the course each year, so that some day, we may have an advanced course. The typists shown are as follows: L to R. First Row: Willie Ruth Phillips, Alice Stewart, Geraldine Miller, Madie Mitchell. Second Row: Virginia Love, Alphonso Goodman, Herman Grant, Florence Debose, Standing: Mrs. E. M.
