LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the Senior class of 1957, being of sound and understanding mind, realizing that we are on the threshold of departing each of us in a different direction, do make and declare this to be our Last Will and Testament. Item I: To Mrs. Gurley, we leave our unsettled quarrels and wasted time, hoping she will distribute it among the Seniors next year for they will really need some extra in which to carry on their business. Item II: To the upcoming classes, we bequeath our wealth and determination to ac- complish what we set our minds to do. Item III: Personal Belongings Lewis Valentine wills his ability to mimic Elvis to William Barnes, Mattie Jean Lee leaves her supply of cute remarks to Mrs. Wilkie so that she may add them to her collection. Annette Winders, believing it best to keep things in the family, passes her ability to hold her man down to her sister, Patsy. David Stafford leaves his motto, Say nothing, do nothing, to anyone to whom it applies. Dickie Pierce, hoping to save confusion, leaves this advice, If you ' re going to change girls, at least try to keep the same last name. Marion Talton wills his ability to play basketball and be high scorer to Kay Pittman. Annette Sasser leaves her parking space at the Coffee Shop to anyone else who likes cheeseburgers as well as she does. Being very generous and wanting to leave something, Cecil Lane wills his good looks to Michael Whaley to add to that which he already has. Betty Howell bequeaths her ability to spread her charm among all the males and still have her eye on one special one to Judy Stuckey. Raymond Radford leaves his driver ' s manual to John Sullivan, hoping he will set the same record as he has for being a safe driver. Melva Mitchell, Morris Carter, and Julius Boswell will their quiet and easy-to-get- along-with dispositions to Charles Sullivan. Douglas Gurley wills his ability to get along with girls to Bill Jordan. Billy Rae Holland leaves his be-bop haircut to Robert Gurley. Markie Smith wills her love for the Air Force to Robbie Taylor, hoping she too will like it some day. Elbert Richardson leaves all his unopened packs of gum to David Gurley, thinking maybe David will take over and keep everybody supplied. A. B. Crawford bequeaths his scorekeeping books to the next scorekeeper. Charles Aycock wills his knowledge of bookkeeping to Peter Aycock, since Peter needs it in order to pass the subject. Jimmy Bunn wills his speed, whether it be on the ball court or at the typewriter, to Glenn Sasser. Ann Strickland wills her camera to the photographer on next year ' s annual staff. Realizing the ball team will be lost without her, Daylon divides her skill in six shares among the team. Wilton Howell bequeaths his art ability to anyone who can ' t draw. Last but not least, Julia Berry wills her intelligence and good grades to all those who are just plain dumb. Julia Berry, Testator

We began an enjoyable Junior year with Mrs. Janyce Hinnant and later Mrs. Louise Wilkie as sponsors. The class wiener roast was fun for everyone at Herman Park with the Greenville trip following shortly. Cecil Lane joined us this year. Our Junior play, Cyclone Sally, was directed by Mrs. Doris Gurley, and what success we had with our ads! Immediately after school this year we all enjoyed the day that we packed our picnic baskets and went to White Lake. Twenty-four students, including our addition, Douglas, met together on September 7, 1956, all happy because they were beginning their Senior year which was to be sponsored by Mrs. Doris Gurley. We began the year by preparing for our Senior play, Eyes of Love. An exciting time for everyone around school was when the Seniors received their class rings. Of course, the Seniors were all very happy but a lot of excitement came from the other classes as the students asked, May I see your ring, please? As the year progressed, we began preparing for our long proposed trip, the last of March, to New York City. Some nights found us tying tobacco while some days found us pulling corn. We tried many conceivable ways to make money, even sharing the concession stand in the gym with the Juniors, col- lecting sctap iron, and sponsoring a barbecue supper. Just as all classes had their disputes, we had ours, but they all have led to success as we enjoy our final moments at Nahunta High School. As we leave these halls we look back over our shoulder at our history and the success that the years have brought us. And now we look forward into the future at the suc- cess that we feel sure will be ours. Dickie Pierce, Historian
