Class History In 1953 we the Class of 1965 began a journey which would take us through the elementary and high school years. The eight years which were spent at William Robert Mills School were filled with the expectation of high school. Finally the big day came in the fall of 1961. We were FRESHMEN, beginning our last leg of the journey in a new school. We were guided that year by the steady hands of Mr. Clyde Polk and Mrs. Celeste Wallace. Bill Williamson led our class as President along with Kate Huggins, Vice President; Anna Collier, Secretary; and Butch Strickland, Treasurer. Anna Collier was chosen our representative for Homecoming Queen, and Toni Merritt and Darrell Simmons re- presented our class in the Mr. and Miss Louisburg High Contest. We not only had fine leader- ship, but a good spirit of participation. Freshmen faces became familiar to many upperclass- men wno tried to ignore us. By our Sophomore year we were very confident and nothing could phase us. We elected as our class officers Tommy Smith, President; Robert Redmond, Vice President; Trudy Jones, Secretary; and Bill Oakley, Treasurer. Again the Class of ' 65 would not be second best. Susan Lloyd was chosen Homecoming Queen over the other contestants. We were well represented in sports, clubs, and the student government. Kate Huggins, Bill Williamson, and Nell Strickland were our Student Council members. Robert Redmond, Bill Williamson, and Boyd Mathews played on the varsity football team, whereas, Bill Williamson, William Jones, and Charles Holmes played on the varsity basketball team. The girls refused to be left out in the area of sports. Betty Jo Moore, Paulette Mullen, Susan Lloyd, Kate Huggins, Nell Strickland, and Anna Collier were our repre- sentatives on the girls ' basketball team. Susan Lloyd, Linda Faulkner, and Tommy Smith be- came members of the Beta Club. Mary Charles Wheless and Bill Williamson were our repre- sentatives for the Mr. and Miss Louisburg High School contest. In this eventful year, we had as our advisors Mrs. Jewel C. Bartholomew and Mr. A. D. Fox. Junior Senior — Class Rings—Junior Senior — Class Rings were the excited whispers heard as we entered school in the fall of 1963 as Juniors. Again we were excellently represented in all areas of high school life. By now many of us had become leaders of clubs and some played important parts in the sports world of Louisburg High. Susan Lloyd joined the Student Council elite, Betty Lou Medlin, Paulette Mullen, Trudy Jones, Anna Collier, and Bruce Wynne were tapped for Beta Club, and Betty Jo Moore became Assistant Editor of the SCHOOL DAZE. Our class officers were Dwight Perdue, President; Frank Peoples, Vice President; Susan Lloyd, Secretary; and Bruce Wynne, Treasurer. Rebecca Perdue was our Homecoming Representative. Anna Collier and Al Bland represented our class in the Mr. and Miss Louisburg High Contest. Our Junior year was highlighted by a successful Junior Senior Banquet entitled Shangrila. We owed much of our success as Juniors to Mrs. Jeannette Arnold, Mrs. Mamie Clayton, and Miss Judith Butler, who were our advisors. After three quick years we finally realized that we were SENIORS. Under the leadership of Mrs. Jeannette Arnold and Mr. Randy Elrod, we began our last year by choosing Robert Redmond as President; Bruce Wynne, Vice President; Paulette Mullen, Secretary; Anna Collier, Treasurer; and Dwight Perdue, Sergeant- at- Arms. In this Senior year our faces were pre- dominant in school activities and clubs. Toni Merritt and Kate Huggins became Beta Club mem- bers. In football, Robert Redmond, Boyd Mathews, Bill Williamson, Butch Strickland, Darrell Simmons, Dwight Perdue, Bruce Wynne, and Frank Peoples were the Senior representatives. As basketball season came along the Seniors again were well represented. Betty Jo Moore, Paulette Mullen, and Susan Lloyd played on the girl ' s team; Bill Williamson, Fred Peoples, and William Jones were members of the boys ' team. Leading the student government was Tommy Smith as President of the Student Council. Kate Huggins and Susan Lloyd were Co-Edit ors of the CIRCLE. Other Seniors who served as presiding officers of clubs were Robert Redmond, President of the Monogram Club, Betty Lou Medlin, President of F.T.A., Susan Lloyd, President of the Beta Club, and Anna Collier, President of F. B. L. A. Again the class came through witha winner. Betty Jo Moore was chosen Homecoming Queen. In the Mr. and Miss Louisburg High contest, Susan Lloyd and Butch Strickland were chosen to represent us. As an eventful climax to twelve long years, the Class of 1965 took the long awaited trip to Washington and New York. Now we the Senior Class of 1965 prepare to embark on our many different ways, we are able to look back on our high school career with much pride. Class Historian Betty Lou Medlin 24
