Twelve years ago seventeen small youngsters walked through the doors and up the stairs to begin their long journey of education under the guidance of Mrs. Gilkerson. While they were starting at Magnolia, not far away in a little country school, five other children were also beginning their educationg neither group knowing that some day their paths would cross, and that they would event- ually graduate together. The class at Magnolia gained and lost a few as the years progressed. During their fourth year they gained Wallis, Robert, Glen, Janice, and Jackieg and Harold joined them in the sixth grade. Thus they went through Junior High. In the spring of their eighth year they presented the play uHands Upn which proved to be quite a bit of fung their junior high basketball teams looked good and showed promising material for high school. The class was joined by Jack and Francis as they entered the freshman year. This increased the number to fifteen wide-eyed and ready classmates. Although they feared initiation, it proved to be more fun for them than for the Seniors. All the class participated in many activities such as music, publications, and declamg and they were honored to have Wallis on the first team of baseball and basketball. The class diminished .to fourteen as sophomores but continued to compete favorably with other classes in activities. Marilyn B. and Orma were continuing to show great promise in declam. In 195A the class decreased to twelve juniors, but they were mighty. In the fall they produced nIt's a Great L1fe.N Then came the planning of the Junior- Senior Banquet-Prom, nStarlight and Roses.n It was rumored to be one of the prettier banquets in the school's history. The senior class of 1956 are proud to have Jack as MAHIWI president, and Jackie as MAHILA and Student Council president. The class also provides five girls on the first team of basketball and the student manager, while five of the boys participate in athletics. Declam, music, library, and the newspaper staff also claim several of the Seniors. Only four of the original seventeen remain-- Sondra, Marilyn B., Marilyn S., and Orma. These six boys and six girls in May, 1956, graduated and stepped out into the world on their own. They have had many good times in school and can be proud of the records they are leaving behind. 26
