Text from Pages 1 - 124 of the 1954 volume:

' Loyal students ever loving Honor and ©bey, Hail, hail go thee, our Alma Mater Mount Zion, all hail. MOUNT TiON INSTIT Dedication “You Are The One” aptly expresses the sentiment of the Senior Class You are the one who has furnished inspiration, guidance, knowledge, and friendship not only to us, but to the whole school. Zke Class of Jifty Jour Not some class, or a class But the class of Mt. Zion Is the class of fifty-four. Every lad, every lass Is building up memories Ever for us to keep in store. There’s L. Cherry, the President. He is everybody’s friend. And we’re not throwing flowers. Officers set a precedent Of worthwhile helpfulness That we may consider ours. Patricia Clark, next in line. Thoughtfulness describes her-- As it might do all the rest. Maxine Young, writing fine. Records our deeds for us. We all thought she’d do it best. Our Bobby Kelly, Treasurer, Keeps finances very well-- As he does all other things. Our Junior-Senior measurer, A class favorite, Marvin Haygood, Always cheerfulness, he brings. Barbara and brains are synonyms. Sanders and steady are too. Black and beauty are appropo. Foxworth and Wilson are pure gems — A type unusually rare. Anyone will tell you so, Davis likes attention, all girls do. Mincey is the long-time lover. They are our own class sweethearts. Raymond Gardner also likes to woo. But make room, everybody. When good looking Stewart starts! Sedate and dignified is Nancy Fant. Another Nancy is too-- And this other one is Hayes. Pass up Betty Bass we can’t, Sweet and pretty-- so is Turner, And they have been all their days. “Baby Brantley,” we used to say, “Baby Levy” and “Baby Rabb.” But they all are grown-up now. Billy Ross, day by day, Kindly has accepted us. Often-times we wonder how. Some weeds are obnoxious. Some weeds are even pests, But our Jerry Weed is fine. Bonnie Jo Craft is gracious, A lady of first degree. Shirley Brooks is the same kind. Mavis Gresham and Betty Martin Are as cute as they can be. Marianne Herndon makes it three. Mary Lou is always dartin’ In and out of somewhere. She is always good to see. Few can play like our Marlene, She’s at home with any music, Just as Dixon is with fun. Nanney does attractive seem, At first glance and long last. Exactly as does Hugh W. Dunn. Raley’s handwriting is excellent Along with his other virtues. Whitman is a handy man. “Editor of Annual” gives a hint Of hard-working, worthy Jane. Get results, she surely can, Virginia Townsend, editor C. C., Fills her place very well. Both the Nancys help her out, Pate will ever popular be With women and also men-- Morris too, without a doubt. Near perfection is Lemond’s work Her we cannot do without! Queer how each is necessary. Doris will not her duties shirk. She is steadfast and true. “Carefree” is the name for Mary Sims is quiet, good in school. Faithful in her club work. Neely is an athletic fan. One who’s always calm and cool, Anticipating others’ needs, Cameron is a gentleman. Capable Brice-- alive? Yes! May play dead, but is not. Of all classes gone before. Not some, class, or a class But the class of Mt. Zion Is the class of fifty-four!

That was the day that we entered Mount Zion Institute as lowly Sub-F reshmen. How we had yearned for that day,for we knew that it was the stepping-stone to the four years that would fol- low when we could say that we were really full-fledged high school members. That year we made many new friends,for it was then that the students from Mount Zion and Everett joined forces for their journey through high school. When the newness had worn off and we had finally begun to settle down, another eventful day faced us. That day? . . . Initiation for the Sub-Freshmen! We were excited,I’ll admit, but from fear more than joy. We can never for- get the boys walking around femininely attired in dresses , hats , high heels .and wearing lipstick. The girls were forced to wear men’s shoes, shirts, and extremely short skirts. No make-up was allowed, and the result was electrifying. And the endless errands that we performed! The Seniors really sat back and enjoyed themselves that day. Of course we were looked down upon by the upper classmen, but we knew that someday we would have our revenge. When the school year 1950-51 arrived, we really began to live. We could then sit back, a- long with the other upper classmen, and laugh when we saw the class of ’55 come in, j ust a s scared as we had been only a year before. There were a few sympathetic hearts scattered a- mong the others, but the majority of our class felt as if they were being amply repaid for the day of torture they had undergone when they, too, were looked upon as lowly sub-freshmen. That year we began to join the different clubs, experience the thrills of being elected officers of our class and other organizations, and most important of all, to be recognized as really belonging to high school. The year 1951-52 marked our second year in high school. Some of the girls were chosen to serve at the Junior-Senior banquet, and several members of our class were chosen as repre- sentatives for the State Mental Contests in Columbia. Last year the days seemed to fly by. Some of us were initiated into the Beta Club. Some were chosen as marshalls and ushers for graduation, mental contestants, and representatives for Boys’ and Girls’ State. From the time that we had entered high school, we had looked for- ward to the day when we would attend the highlight of the year— the Junior-Senior banquet and dance. That was our goal when many of us worked in the football concessions, gave the Sweet- heart Ball, and presented the Junior Class play, “Our Hearts Were Young and Gay,” in an ef- fort to raise money for that day in May — May 1 — when our dreams would come true and we would be hosts to the Senior Class at the annual Junior-Senior. We finally knew the thrills and excitement that went into the preparation of the gala affair. We chose as our theme, “May Day,” and to us the gym had never looked lovelier. And now we are Seniors. This year we have shared laughter and tears while editing the school newspaper and annual. All the joys of becoming Seniors have been ours — presenting our Senior Play, “Kitty Foyle;” being guests at a wonderful Junior-Senior; choosing Senior Su- perlatives, marshalls, ushers, and mascots for graduation; and Class Night and Graduation speakers. It has been a wonderful year, and it holds many memories for all of us. This year we are completing our four-year journey through high school. The good times shared by us, as a class, are at an end, but our hearts are full of memories of the joys and sorrows that we have experienced, for this is our history, the history of the class of ’54. Class Historian Class Prophecy It was the year 19 4. I was sitting alone in my apartment in New York City, watching television. It was almost time for my favorite program-- “ Larry Hearthrob Sings Of course,to the millions of other people watching, this was just another program, just one more famous celebrity that would entertain them. But to me it was something else besides mere entertainment. You see, Larry Hearthrob was just another name for LARRY CHERRY, who was one of my high-school classmates and who had made good as a singer. This program was what really started me to thinking. Oh, it seemed a long time ago. I sat there a minute thinking about Larry and all the rest of my classmates, whom I hadn’t seen in such a long time, and all of a sudden I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I picked up the telephone and dialed the former MARY McGILL’S number and waited for her to answer. I was really getting excited now, “Hello, Mary----how would you like to tour the United States with me?” Of course, she sounded sur- prised but when I told her I was really serious she also sounded disappointed. She told me that she really would love to go but with her eight little Brewers, she was just too busy. Then, I called Mme. BETTY MARTIN, who was the owner of a fashionable dress shoppe in Bro oklyn and she readily agreed that this would be an ideal trip and we could see all of our old friends. The very next afternoon, Betty and I boarded the fastest jet they made for passenger flights. Much to our surprise, we found two of our classmates on it. MELTON LEVY was the pilot and MAVIS GRESHAM, the very efficient hostess. Our first stop was Washington, D. C. The very first thing we wanted to do was to see the President of the United States, JACK STEWART, and the Vice-President, ALEX RABB. We were not at all surprised to see how distinguished looking they were nor at the high position they held, because they were both such am- bitious boys and just craved knowledge and especially political knowledge. From the capital, we decided to walk through the city and see if we could find any more people we knew. We passed Mr. and Mrs. JACKIE MINCEY and talked to them for awhile. Of course, Mrs. Mincey was the former BEASLEY DAVIS and Jackie was now the owner of Mincey’s Grocery and Market. They gave us the addresses of some more of our classmates and some tickets to a big Variety Show that was being held that night, in which several people we knew were to have parts. When we told them that we were on our way to see MAXINE YOUNG and GLENDA MORRIS, they advised us not tp, because they ran the busiest beauty shoppe in town and were too busy to do anything since this was their busiest time of the year. We passed by the modern Ross-Haygood Department Store, owned by BILLY ROSS and MARVIN HAY- GOOD, and decided to see the fashion show they were having. Two of the models were JOYCE PATE and BETTY BASS. My, they looked good! ! ! Even though we had tickets to the Variety Show that night, it was almost time to catch our jet, so we gave them away. Upon discovering that we had lost our way to the airport, we asked a policeman, who turn- ed out to be CHARLES NANNEY , how to get there. His clear directions took us right to the airport, where our jet was already warming up. Our next stop was “The Biggest Little City In The World,” --Winnsboro, where population hadincreased to 35,000. Three of our classmates, DORIS POSTON, JANE LEWIS, and BETTY SIMS, had marriedlocaL boys and had settled down with their families. We stopped by Mount Zion and found many of our classmates working at the school. BONNIE JO CRAFT was superintendent of the grammar school and MILDRED LE- MOND was secretary in the office, and also a shorthand speed demon, getting 210 words per minute. Also we found that ELSIE MAE NEELY was basketball coach and JERRY WEED was coaching football. NANCY FANT, the news editor of the now daily. News and Herald, invited us to eat dinner with her in a new swanky restaurant that had been built since we left. While eating, she told us that JULIUS CAMERON was an undertaker and MARIANNE HERNDON was a farmer’s wife. By this time, one of Marianne’s little boys came by selling newspapers. I bought one and was really surprised at the headlines-- “RHETT SAND- ERS Swims English Channel In 15 Hours — World’s Record,” Much to our regret, it was time to leave Winnsboro again but we just had about three more days to see the rest of our former classmates. But this time, instead of catching a jet, we decided to take a train so we could see the familiar scenery. While riding, we passed a big billboard with a picture of BOBBY KELLY, local politician on one side and the glamorous PATRICIA CLARK, who was modeling for Lux Soap, on the other. Our next stop was Atlanta,Georgia , where we decided to visit Georgia Tech and see RAYMOND GARD- NER, who was taking Bobby Dodd’s place as football coach. CHARLES BRANTLEY, who was playing profes- sional football,was spending the week with Raymond, so we got to talk with both of them. BARBARA BEAS- LEY and CHARLES WHITMAN were both professors at the college, Barbara teaching English and Charles Chemistry. We decided to take in a movie after having our gab session. The stars of the pic- ture we saw were none other than MARY LOU BECKHAM, academy award winner, and DAVID DIXON, comedian and teller of hilarious jokes. On our way out, we met the ow- ner of the theater, CHARLES RALEY , but he couldn’t talk long because it was almost time for his Burlesque Show to open. We left Atlanta and made a beeline clear across to Hollywood, California, where we discovered that the same Variety Show we had missed in Washington was now play- ing here, We went to the theater and checked our hats with SHIRLEY BROOKS and were ushered down the aisle to our seats by GEORGE BRICE. First on the program was a duet, sung by FELECIA TURNER and MARY FRANCES BLACK. Next ELEANOR FOXWORTH, brilliant concert pianist, gave a command performance. After the inter- mission, GENEVIEVE WILSON, contralto, sang several selections and HUGH DUNN and his orchestra did a delightful arrangement of our Alma Mater and dedicated it to Betty and I. The very last thing on the program was a special song and dance act by NANCY HAYES and VIRGINIA TOWNSEND, the Jane Rus.sell and Marilyn M onroe of 1 964. After the show we all had a party and compared ourselves ten years ago to now. We were all happy and successful. Betty and I boarded the jet and flew back to our homes in New Y ork, tired but hap- py. We didn’t say much on our trip back--but as for me- -I sure thought an awful lot! ! ! Class Prophet Cast Will And Zestament We, the members of the graduating class of ’54, having been found feeble in mind and weak in body, this 21st day of May, One Thousand Nine Hundred Fif- ty Four, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament. Article 1. We leave our thanks and appreciation to all our teachers who have made our graduation possi- ble � Article 2. We leave the J unior Class our quiet ways and orderly class meetings. Article 3. We leave the Juniors our good looks, neatness, brains, and cheerfulness, with the hope that you all will have as much fun together as we did. Article 4. We leave the Juniors our books, (what’s left of them) and our eagerness to study. We hope you get better grades for all your work than we did. Article 5. Mary McGill leaves to Bobbie Anne Jones her red hair and hopes that Bobbie’s will attract as many friends as Mary’s did. Nancy Hayes wills her love for Clemson to Geor- gia Turbeville.

Joyce Pate and Eleanor Foxworth leave to Laura Ann Bond and Elizabeth Boulware their sweet smiles and gentle ways. Mildred Lemond sadly leaves Marion Brice, but only for the day.

Mary Lou Beckham wills her quietness in the li- brary to Laura Belle Branham. Jack Stewart wills his crew cut to Acie Scott with the hope that Acie will keep his hair short. Rhett Sanders leaves his hidden love for Miss Wylie’s English parallel to Billy McDonald and Buck Owens. It has never been used. George Brice leaves his love for women to Trez- evant Timmons.

We ’ re £ caving you , Mount Zion” Our high school days are almost through Yet our lives have just begun; Through the years we almost flew. Enduring sorrow, having fun. Learning and facts we did obtain Friendships to last a lifetime through Pay heed all you who do remain We entrust our Mount Zion to you.
