Dur- ing the year we lost five members leaving only eight at the end of the year. Mr. Carter our sponsor became ill and had to give up teaching. Our Junior year at McAfee was very eventful. There were ten from McAfee and ten from Fairview. Our home room teacher, Miss Woods, expounded the theories of Geometry. Our Principal, Miss Mellie Matherly, taught Ameri- can History and English. Mr. Bruce Champion and Mr. Stewart Gaunce taught mathmatics and Agriculture. During the year Frances Satterly and Marie Releford withdrew and Harley Moore entered school at Pine Knot. Mac Cecil from Midway enrolled the second semes- ter. We we.e veiy glad to get “Mac”. Several Juniors received much deserved and long treasured awards - C’s- in conduct for throwing shoes in the cla ss room. Our Junior year ended with the juniors entertaining the Seniors at Fountain Ferry in Louisville. Seven boys and girls entered the junior class in the Cornishville High School. We were Juniors now, so we expected more privileges whether we rceived them or not. There was Geometry to get around. (Around in circles, that is). Two of our girls had been cheerleaders during their three years in High School. Our boys had been able to make either the first or second team in basketball. We lost two girls before the year was over. This left us five. We were a sad group. We had heard that we wouldn’t be able to graduate from Cornishville the following year. This was the year we had been anticipating for so long. We were to be scattered here and there, breaking up the beautiful friendship we had had together. Our Senior year was by far the best and most promis- ing of our high school. George Bishop and Kenneth Young entered our class room from Cornishville. We were very glad to have them. They have added much to the fun we have had during the year. Our Senior year was all that we could expect. There was the need to study in order that we might win the long worked for award - the Diploma. There was also a brighter side. Planning the Annual, getting ready for the class play, Class Night and for Com- mencement. These things and many other activities of the year made us feel that we wrre stt apart and honored by the name we bore — “Seniors of 49”.
