SHANNON RAGLAND Shan Quiet and talented ClASS HISTORY Here it is our Senior Year of school and as we look back over our school years there are many happy memories. Many of us were doubtful about starting in the first grade but Miss Boyd soon dispersed our fears. It was here that we learned our A, B, C ' s and how to count. Miss Cecil Parr was our teacher in the second grade. We learned a lot ofnew songs and learned how to play soft ball. At the end of the year we were eagerly a- waiting what the next year would bring. In the third grade most of us remember Mrs. Atto and her paddle. It was just about every day that someone was sent into the hall for misbehaving. In the fourth grade, Mrs. Robertson, taught us the meaning of the three R ' s. Geography was added to our other subjects, and it was here that we learned that the world is round. Miss Maupin, our fifth grade teacher, would always catch us chewing gum and throwing paper even when her back was turned. We never did quite understand this. The most remembered incident in our sixth grade was Mrs. Bowling ' s Christmas pageants. Our seventh grade was divided between Mrs. Larke and Mrs. Terry. The most memorable day was the one on which we graduated from grade school. In the eight grade under Mr. Atto and Miss Somerville, we were joined by a group from Shipman, Norwood, and Arrington. We will always remember Mr. Atto telling us in Science Class about the girls he had seen at the beach and the trips he had taken on vacation. In the ninth grade Miss Walker tried to teach us that X and Y do have a value other than being A, B, C ' s. Mr. Coco will always be remembered as our tenth grade teacher. It was many a time that he caught us with our minds on the ball game or on the date we had last night or were going to have. And nowweare in the graduating class of ' 54. We will always remember and be thankful for our teachers, principal, and parents who helped us through school and made us eligible for a diploma from L. H. S. Class Historian Betty Wood CUSS PROPHECY Well, here it is 1964, and although it seems like only yesterday, it has been ten years since I was graduated from Lovingston High school, in 1954. Since I had saved a large sum of money, during the summer I thought I would visit the places where I was most likely to find my former class-mates. Ileft in a plane from Texas and flew directly to Florida. At the hotel where I made my reservations, I saw Phyllis Gowen. She told me that she was happily married to the owner of the hotel. Phyllis also informed me that a lot of our former classmates had positions in Florida. I was on the beach one day enjoying the sun, when I heard someone call my name. As I turned I recognized the familar face of Joyce Wooten. Joyce told me that she and Myrtle Harris were working as models for an exclusive agency in Florida. She also said that Dorothy Payne was a well known movie actress and came to Florida with her company to make movies. I also saw Ruby Stevens who was living down there while her husband, in the navy, was stationed there. One afternoon while I was on a shopping spree I saw Elizabeth Thompson who was manager in a large department store. She told me that Patsy White was married to the owner of the store and owned a beautiful home in Miami. After my stay in Florida, I boarded a plane and left for Virginia. Much to my surprise Paul Dameron was pilot of the plane. Shirley Walkup was stewardess on the plane, and she said she liked her position very much. The plane landed in Lynchburg and when I went in the airport I saw Shannon Rag¬ land, busily working at her desk; while talking to Shannon I learned that some of our classmates were teaching at E.C. Glass School, sol got a taxi and headed there. While on a tour of the school, I stopped in the Commercial Room. There was Dora Harvey, very efficient looking, teaching her typing class. Dora told me that Virginia Umbarger and Roberta Lowe were both married and teaching at E. C. Glass . (Continued) CUSS PROPHECY After leaving j:he school, I caught a bus and headed for Lovingston. To my surprise Lovingston was quite a town with numerous attractions. As I walked down Main Street I saw a sign which read Gunter and Drumheller Drug Company. I went in, and Odessa Thompson was clerking there. She told me that Dallas Gunter and Lebron Drumheller owned the Drug Store. Farther down the street, I saw Willoughby Television Center. It was owned by David Willoughby. While admiring the beautiful sets, I chanced to see Betty Wood who was showing the people how to cook a delicious meal in half the time. David said that Betty had been on television for a number of years. My next decision was that of visiting the school. To my surprise it was no longer called Lovingston High School, but Nelson County High School. It had been consolidated. As Ientered.I saw Janett who told me that she was Mr. Reed 1 s Private secre¬ tary and enjoyed her work very much. As I was looking around the school, I saw Frances Giles and Eunice White. Frances was teaching the seventh grade and Eunice was teaching Physical Ed¬ ucation. After leaving the school, Idecided to go to the movies. At the box office Ann Johns was busily selling tickets. She told me that Jake Tyree owned the theater. While in Virginia, I went to the University Hospital. As I entered the hospital, I saw a doctor coming out. As he approached, I recognized him to be Charles Gowen, Charles told me that Ethel Watts, Betty Johnston, and Jane Goodwin were nurses there, and that Burkes Fortune was one of the top surge ons at the hospital. Charles also said that Pauline Scruggs had been a nurse there, but she left to get married, and was living at Shipman. After leaving Virginia, I decided to stop in Washington D. C. On the street I met Ruby Gunter. Ruby informed me that she was working as secretary to the owner of a very prospective business and was engaged to her boss. She told me that Willie Sigrist was rooming with her and had a position at the Pentagon. I talked with Mary Brent while in Washington. She told me that she and her husband were on vacation. She said they were living in South Carolina. As I boarded the plane in Washington to go to New York, I discovered | that Betty Burkes and Frances Snead were also on the plane. Frances and Betty were both working in New York in the same office. In New York I happened to see Betty Mawyer, Daisy Knight, andShirley Campbell. They were still doing the Tennessee Wig-Walk. Virginia White was working in a department store She informed me that she was married and lived near Ruth White who was also married. I learned that Jimmy Farrar was the owner of the Farrar Motel and Farrar Re staurant- While I attended a professional baseball game, and much to my surprise Roy Bryant and Marion Gleason were two of the star players. Radford Brent and Warren Phillips owned “The Big Diamond Night Club” and were doing a fine job of managing it. They told me that Bernard Johnson and Winfred Turner owned a garage in New York and Robert Fitzgerald was manager. While in New York I learned that June Butler, Joan Butler, andDorothy Tinnell were models working there. When I got back to Texas I rested for a few days and started back inmywork. It pleased me to know I had seen all my former classmates of 1954.
