Gtais fiistoiKj Memories, memories, days of long ago- Do you remember the time when we sat around the camp fire at Bedford Lake? I believe we were Sophomores then. l certainly do. I can still see that fifty-seven varieties of happy little tots climbing up the front steps only to have their spirits dampened by Mr. Kee ' s, What have I done to deserve this? Who but our indescribably helpful, thoughtful, and lovable sponsor, Mrs. Margaret Garrett, could have made us feel more at home, arranged our sche¬ dules, and restored our smiles so quickly. Doris Smith, Jimmy Sublett, Dolly Falls, and Bobby Stallard surely start¬ ed out early as politicians. They were our officers for that year. How well I remember our sitting on the front rows Rat Day! We were call¬ ed on the stage one by one and were so nervous that the steps shook as we as¬ cended them. Never shall I forget our first ' all important ' high school party. The thoughts of our second year are very clear in my mind. That year Joe Roudabush, Alfred Overstreet, Lois Orange and Doris Overstreet were at the helm. I believe we had one of those capable and energetic young teachers as our sponsor. As I recall, her name was Miss Catherine Varner. Seems as though with our forty-nine experienced Sophomores, we did quite a few things such as dressing up as waiters and serving those Juniors and Sen¬ iors at their reception. And then there was that wonderful Easter party. I still have those snapshots of us grouped around the bunny rabbit. As these days slipped quickly by, we looked forward to our Junior days. I recall that great election we had in forty-eight. I believe I was in on that. Our intelligent officers who emerged from the campaign were Wesley Graham, Mary F. Miller, Dolly Falls, and Roger Grant, along with our never forgotten sponsor. Miss Virginia Anderson. The fun and appreciation expressed by the Seniors repaid us for all those studyless, sleepless nights we spent preparing a gay time for them. it was good to have a picnic on the Peaks when we did ' nt have to bother about all those Seniors and it was really fun. Remember how nice the girl.s looked when they ushered for the senior activities? Ah, nineteen hundred and forty-nine found forty-two dignified Seniors ap¬ proaching their last year at M. H. S. Our thoughtful and helpful sponsor. Miss Wilma Rayburn, settled us down to work for awhile until that minstrel came a- long called Dusky Clouds over M. H. S. That year the Senior Class was well led by our officers - Wesley Graham, Mary F. Miller, Dolly Falls, and Roger Grant. l can still see us waiting for the bus that cold Friday morning to journey us to Williamsburg. My, the fun we did have! Those Juniors surely did give us a swell banquet, did ' nt they? l remember how all the people at Community League talked about our beau¬ tiful window and the Christmas Pageant we gave to them at Christmas. With tears in my eyes, I remember too well our last moments at M. H. S. such as Senior Play, Class Night, Baccalaureate, Commencement and then Good- Bye. Doris Overstreet Wesley Graham
