HISTORY As the school year comes to a close we find ourselves Seniors. Our thoughts wander back through our high school days. In 1953 Maury claimed a group of proud freshmen. As this year was our first year in high school, of course, we noticed the difference from gram- mar school. Everyone worked hard and had a fine year under the leader- ship of Mr. Bryant Tripp. As school opened again we are now Sophomores. Under the leader- ship of Mrs. C. T. May we worked very hard and along with the work we also had several parties. At last, we are Juniors. Although we are decreasing in number we are filled with high expectations. This is the year we order our rings, present our Junior play and the best of all the Junior and Senior Banquet. On March 17 we gave our Junior play. April 11 was a proud day, we had our Junior- Senior Banquet. And now it is September again and we begin as twenty-one proud Sen- iors with Mrs. Graham Olive as our teacher. We have really been looking forward to this year especially those class rings and diplomas. Our class officers were Billy Carraway-President, Janice Mooring-Vice-President, Kay Mooring-Secretary, Jean Stanley-Treasurer and Bonnie Carraway-Reporter. On October 11 we took a trip to Williamsburg, Va. This was a very edu- cational trip and everyone enjoyed it. We had a Christmas party at Kay ' s. Christmas not only brought us a party, but also a new member, J. D. Moore. For our class colors we chose pink and green, and Carnations for the flower. As our years come to an end here at Maury we will always remember our happiness and mishaps. We would like to thank our parents and also the faculty for helping us through our high school years.
