Class History As we the senior class of 1952, look back over the past, we feel that we can compare our past achievements and failures to that of a ship at sea. We are grateful for the guid- ance and cooperation we have received from our captain, Miss Rutledge, and from other members of the faculty. With them at the helm, rough spots were made smooth and the fog of doubt and uncertainty was made clear. On September second, in the year of 1948, we first entered into what you might call a new world. Nearly everything was different. Our first teachers were Miss Anderson, Mrs. Bailey and Mr. Foster. There was an enrollment of 100 students. As the months rolled by, we became Sophomores. There were many changes. The class began to get smaller and some of the students went to other schools. Nevertheless, we kept on striving like a ship at sea, trying to reach the shore. Our enrollment in that class was 76. Our homeroom teachers were Mr. Jessie C. Banner and Miss Birdie A. E dwar ds . As we went on upward, we became Juniors. Our teacher was Miss Katie E. Jones. Here we were almost at the shore. The Junior class officers were: President-Robert Pearson, Secretary-Florence Debose, Assistant Secretary-Catherine Walker, Treasurer- Mazella Young, Red Cross Repre sentative - Betty Alexander. There was an enrollment of 66 students. Mazella Young won the Junior speaking contest that year. Della Handy and Mavis Bruner were Letter Girls. We took second place in the Miss Logan and Miss Tigerette contests. We sponsored the Junior -Senior prom which shall always be remembered. Our chief Marshals for the 1951 Commencement were Florence Debose andDella Handy. Marshals were Mazella Young, Dorcie Reid, Mary Howie, Betty Alexander, Catherine Walker and Mavis Bruner. In the fall of 1951, we entered the Senior class. There we had reached the goal for which we had long been striving. Our teacher was Miss D. C. Rutledge. Senior Class officers were: President-Eugene Black, Vice President -James McDaniels, Secretary-Flo- rence Debose, Assistant Secretary-Della Handy, Treasurer-Mazella Young, Red Cross Representatives-Betty Alexander and William Pearson, Class Reporter -Mavis Bruner. The Senior Class was invited to A T College on October 13, 1951. We all enjoyed ourselves very much. There are 28 girls and 16 boys in the Senior class. Members of the annual staff are Catherine Walker, Della Handy, Mazella Young, Mary Howie, Verna Cureton, Margaret Howie, Willie Phillips, Florence Debose, Eugene Black, Robert Pear- son and Bernard Reid. We have reached the end of our voyage. We look forward to ultimate success in life. And from this experience we have gained immeasurable value, — band, dances, exams, sports, — all of these go together to comprise the great perpetual memory. “Not finished; just begun. ’ ’ Historian - Catherine Walker
