Uhr mauahi gp ,Q Gllaaa Eiatnrg CQ'Lnutinurh The two rooms were organized as one with Joseph Kessler, Presidentg H. B. Byrd, Vice-'Presidentg Helen Price, Secretary, and Carolyn Pannill, Treasurer. As our Junior year rolled around we found that our greatest problem was the Junior-Senior Banquet and early in the fall we realized that it was necessary to raise money for it. We sponsored a Beauty Pageant, a Faculty Basketball Game, and a Liquid-air Demonstration. We chose as the theme for our banquet, An old Fashioned Garden and even the Seniors admitted that it was beautifully carried out. After the banquet we had a dance for the Seniors. This year we lost Fred Robbins, Mary Walker Ford, and Louise Hayes who deserted us for bonds of matrimonyg Dillard Ford also left us. Ann Carroll and Kathryn Jones came to us from other schools but Kathryn remained with us only a year. The girls were again fortunate in winning the basketball cup. As Seniors we were sorry to lose Mr. Carper, Miss Keeble, and Mr. Lacy, who was our principal during our first three years, but we were glad to welcome four new teachers, Miss Eakin, Miss Miller, Mr. Meyers, and Mr. Staples whom we learned to love in our Civics classes. Our class was again strengthened by new members, Willis Barrow, June Turner, and Elizabeth Nease. Our next plans were for our year book and so we sponsored the picture, The Dark Angel at the Rives Theater to help finance it. As :he end of the year drew nearer, we looked forward to the produc- tion of our play, Oh, Profefssorln, and the excitement of commencement week.

Gr mm H his Ollaaa lliiatnrg N September of 1932, the Pied Piper blew his flute and from the grammar schools sixty Rats came tumbling. All kinds of Rats scuttled across the street to seek new quarters in the high school building. We, those Rats, were tolled into the rooms of Miss Pocahontas Wray and Miss Sabra Walker, and there we have stayed throughout our entire four years. We have scrambled madly through the halls, have been ordered around by the principal, have been run over by the upper classmen and caught in many traps set by the faculty-but in spite of all these dangers, there are now forty-five survivors. The Tacky Party held' in the old Home Economics rooms was the out- standing social event of our Freshman year. Anne Minter made herself the tackiest of the tacky and was awarded a prize. In the inter-class basketball games our girls' team succeeded in winning the silver cup, a much coveted trophy. This honor made us begin to feel that we really belongedi. By our Sophomore year we felt more capable to take part in school activities. We gave a Christmas play, Red and the Christmas Whoppersj' and took part in Goops, A Melodrama, and Ulmpersonations of Movie Stars, in the Stunt Show sponsored by the Hi-Y. In the spring we enter- tained the teachers at a picnic. During this year our class was strengthened by thirteen recruits from Mr. Caldwell's home room, and two mem-bers, Joseph Kessler and Alvis Brown, from other schools. Twenty-Two
