To the young Freshman Class, we will a generous portion of the vast amount of knowledge that we have acquired in our four years of high school. Being freshmen--green freshmen--they probably are in need of more learning than they have. Shirley Brame bequeaths to Joe Mabry her speed in basketball. Ann Best leaves her changeable romances to Alice Dickerson. Tunstall Curtis wills to Mary Delia Reavis his big mouth. John Reavis leaves his pestering ways to Jean Gill. Kenneth Daeke leaves his love of studying to Jean Finch who could use a little more studying. Peggy Breedlove leaves her quiet ways to Jane Mustian. Mary Sue Moore leaves her flirting ability to Jean Currin, though she doesn’t really need it. Gill Duke leaves his way with the patrolmen to Roger Fleming. Maurice Fleming wills his acting ability to Edward Harris. Eunice White wills her ability to talk softly to Dolly Best. Pauline Kearson leaves to Agnes Harris her dignified ways. Ferebee Fletcher wills her bashfulness to Ruby Alice Satterwhite. Alvin Ellington leaves his love of eating to Alice Lloyd, who has a very poor appetite. Finally, we do hereby name and appoint sole executor of this, our last will and testament, our class advisor, Mrs. Mary McColl. In witness whereof, We, the class of 1950 and the testatrix, have set our hands . and seals on this 28th day of May, in the year of one thousand-nine hundred fifty A. D.

Cast Will and Testament We, the Senior Class of 1950, being about to pass out of this sphere of edu- cation, in full possession of a crammed mind, well trained memory, and almost superhuman understanding, wish to leave behind us some token of remembrance and some written document to be sure that our desires and hopes will be carried out after our departure. Realizing full well the nearing end of our school days at Middleburg High School, we do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament. To our principal, Mr. E. O. Young, Jr., we bequeath our sincere affection, our deepest reverence, and our heartiest gratitude. In an attempt at partial payment for all that he has done for us through the years, we make over to him, here and now, a heavy mortgage on our future in the Great Unknown beyond. It shall be his to watch every step of our upward and onward flitting, to note each trial, each attempt, each victory, each success, and honor that we may achieve in the arena of the world, and to accept for himself, as interest on our debt to him, every ounce of the praise, knowing that it is all due to his faith- ful instructions. To Mrs. McColl, a quieter English class. To Miss Mewborn, our best wishes that she will have much success in find- ing herself a man, with that new Chevrolet of hers. To Mr. White, a boys’ basketball team that wins every game. To Mrs. Blum, who has been sorely in need of more typewriters, we willa dozen new ones. To Mr. Blum, we leave a box of pencils, hoping that he won't have to charge the other boys rent for them. To dear old Middleburg High itself, we leave the peaceful quiet caused by our absence and any apple cores, wads of gum, or notes we left around. We give and bequeath freely and without reservation to the Juniors, our rightful heirs and to their heirs, our most important and valuable properties, our nerve, our luck, our importance and our wisdom--all of which we possess in great quantities. To our good friends, the Sophomore Class, we leave our patience. It will be found useful as the only means by which they can endure the Juniors.
