As an expression of our sincere admiration for him, and in appreciation for the splendid service he has rendered in our behalf and his loyal devotion to the duties of our Home, we, the Class of 1950, do, gratefully and affectionately, dedicate this volume of The Log to our friend MR. D. P. PEAKE tC111111C111C1111'C111111C131C1111Q Miss NANNIE P. BESSENT OCCCCCCCCCQOCCCCC-983333331 IN MEMORIAM 'i i l--i i !v+'i- On Sunday morning, April 23, at 12:40 A. M., Miss Nannie P. Bessent, a most loyal and popular member of the Oxford Orphanage staff since April 1, 1918, passed away at City Memorial Hospital, Winston-Salem. The funeral service was conducted from the Clemmons Moravian Church, of which she was a member, and burial was in the Moravian Church cemetery at Clemmons. Miss Bessent retired from active life at the Orphanage on August 31, 1949, but she carried with her the love and esteem of hundreds of the Alumni, the present student body and co-workers, and of all who have had the privilege of having known and had contact with her throughout the years. Her life was filled with varied experiences in many fields, but in whatever capacity she served, whether as teacher, governess, or office assistant, her tasks were marked by unselfish devotion and a high level of excellence. Her many friends feel the loss of her inspiring personality, her strength of character, her excellent judgment, and unfailing kindness, and generosity. Her sincere friendship and smile, her wise counsel. and high ideals will live long in the hearts of all who knew her. Faithful, kindly, gentle, and sincere, to the end of her days-we are left with a profound admiration for the way in which she lived her life-in the footsteps of her M3St61'. Miss Bessent has gone from her life and labors where she was unusually beloved, but how immortal and immeasurable is the influence of this great friend! There is a time- No one knows the hour- Whcri heaven co-mes 'very close And touches the earth,- It may be in the quiet of the dawn,- High noon, or the golden tinted twilight, In the majesty of the storm, Or the hash of a starlit night: Earth and heaven. are unc for ll moment- The Lord God has sent for His own- A loved one is triamphmtt in a lifetime victory. CTHE LUC- ln Appreciation U 1-ET On April 1, 1950, Miss Alma V- King retired to live with her mother in Winston-Salem. She had been a member of the Oxford Orphanage staff for many years and was held in highest esteem. Miss King's first service to the Orphanage was in the ca- pacity of teaching telegraphy. Before coming to this institu- tion, she had held positions of this nature, consequently, she was most efficient in this type of work. When the teaching of this subject Was discontinued, she became full-time office assistant to the Lady Supervisor, Miss Nettie N. Bemis. She was found very capable in all the duties connected with this position. Her last position, which was held for many years, was that of counselor in the First Girls' Cottage. Here, she was greatly interested in the Welfare of those in her care. These were some of the younger girls on the cam- pus. Many of these are now grown and have established them- selves in various places, nevertheless, they look back to those earlier days with appreciation for the many kind and thought- ful things Miss King did for them. We miss her greatly, but we realize how much she can mean to her aged mother. In all sincerity, We are grateful for her loyal service in our Home, and in her retirement, we would wish for her the great- est of pleasure and happiness.

M., the first brick in the foun- dation of the new school was laid by Miss Nettie N. Bemis, Lady Supervisor. The informal program connected with the event was witnessed by the executive committee, a number of friends in town, the children of the Orphan- age, and the faculty. After the singing of America the Beautiful, the invocation was given by Dr. F. H. T. Horsfield. Supt. R. L. Brown made a brief address in which he called attention to the importance of the event and the bearing it would have on the lives of the children. Past Grand Master B. S. Royster and Past Grand Master J. Bailey Owen were present. Supt. Brown stated that a large part of the credit for getting the new building was due to the untiring efforts of these two friends. The honor of laying the first brick was accorded Miss Bemis. A great cheer arose as she stepped into the place of excavation and quite neatly laid the brick. Past Grand Masters Royster and Owen, Dr. F. H. T. Horsfield, Reverend E. M. Snipes, Reverend F. F. Comerford, many of the ladies of the faculty, and a number of other members of the Orphanage staff, each laid a brick. The last four bricks were laid by the presidents and vice-presidents of the two student councils: Troy Smith and Sadie Neal, presidentsg Stamey Heath and Frances Harmon, vice-presidents. The building to be erected was to be large enough to meet the needs of that time, and to have sufficient capacity to take care of a considerable increase. Particular attention was to be given to lighting, ventilation, con- venience, and sanitation. The corner stone of the new building was laid on St. John's Day, June 24, 1924, with Grand Master J. Legrand Everett, presiding. The building was authorized by the Grand Lodge to be erected at a cost of S85,000, and to be designed to meet the requirements for the primary, grammar, and high school grades. This ceremony was impressive, beautiful, and marked with dignity and solemnity. Dr. R. L. Flowers, member of the Board of Directors, representing the said this State of North Carolina and speaking in the name of the people, material development is the flowering of the spirit and gave the Masons of North Carolina and the Grand Lodge high praise for their vision in measuring up to the great responsibilities undertaken. Past Grand Master B. S. Royster, in receiving the work from the hands of the Grand Master, was visibly affected and expressed the deep gratification of the Board that such a splendid opportunity for Christian education was at the service of every child in the Orphanage. From the time the Grand Marshal, by order of the Grand Master, made his proclamation to the South, to the West, and to the East, until the cere- monies were completed, there was no lessening of attention. Prayer by the Grand Chaplain was followed by the placing of memorials of the time represented in the cavity within the foundation. These deposits for' future generations to discover and examine, epitomized the educational activities of the Oxford Orphanage in the year, 1924.

With the square, the Deputy Grand Master proved the stone square, and that the craftsmen had performed their duty. With the level, the Senior Grand Warden pronounced it level and the Junior Grand Warden announced that it was true to the plumb. Corn as an emblem of plenty was scattered on the stone, the wine of joy and gladness was poured, and the oil of peace poured out symbolized love and sympathy for the widow and orphan and pouring out of mercies for them. The John Nichols School Building, named in memory of the Past Grand Master Nichols, was completed in 1925-fireproof, sanitary, and up-to-date in every respect. It was occupied in September, 1925. In the very beginning, the school was not only accredited by the State Board of Education, but also by the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. In connection with this honor, Supt. R. L. Brown said, This is truly no small compliment to the faithful services of our very efficient teachers as well as the magnificent planning and executive ability of our Lady Supervisor, Miss Nettie N. Bemis. With the enactment of the new school law by the General Assembly in 1931, Supt. C. K. Proctor saw the opportunity of the John Nichols School becoming a part of the State system, thus, by his earnest efforts and the cooperation of the State Equalization Board, the school was admitted, however, the State does not pay entirely the expenses of operating the John Nichols School, neither does the Oxford Orphanage lose entire control of its school or in the management of its affairs. Since that date, the school has continued to enjoy the splendid cooperation accorded by Supt. C. G. Credle of the Oxford City System, and the many advantages to be had through the broader affiliation. A further opportunity provided this year has been the services of a most capable supervisor, Miss Patsy Montague, employed in the Oxford City System. Students of the high school participate in many interscholastic contests in the State, and the school is also a member of the State High School Athletic Conference Class A. Every teacher in the school holds at least a Class A certificate. The enrollment for the year has been 449, and on June 2, 1950, twenty-two seniors will graduate from the John Nichols School, to take their places and become worthy citizens of our great state. - Page Sixteen 1950 CTHE LUC- Superintendents of Oxford Orphcmoge Since the Erection of the John Nichols School Building MR.

There is no record of our very earliest movements up the large and ever winding stair, but I shall tell of the last four steps which were the hardest to climb and what we did to reach the top of the Steps to Success. Time turns back its pages to September 3, 1946. Thus, we reached the first of the last four high steps. We were, as tradition goes, called Fresh- men. Under that name we got all that is lined up for fi-eshiesf' Being tagged by the student council, put on program every club meeting, and so on, but we didn't mind that. Our guide for the first steep step was Miss Louise Pender. She said correct English was very important and also physical education. So she helped us on those subjects. Mr. Talton taught us to keep our figures trim under the heading of math. Mr. Booth was always urging us to strive for good citizenship. Mr. Mayo taught us many facts in science. Soon we found that we needed some officials to govern our little band headed for the heights to success, so we held an election day. Through stiff competition these won out: president, Marie King, vice-president, Jack Moore, secretary, Pauline Radford, and treasurer, Jerry Surles. Many from our group joined the Glee Club and Declamation Contest. One of our group, Jack Moore, became an Eagle Scout this year. Hey, Ho! What's this I see coming! None other than our vacation time. There was a short three months' rest and then our little band reached the next broad step. Sophomores? Yes, that was our new title. Our officials had done such a good job on the lower step we decided to try it again. This time we put in office as president, Calvin Pleasantsg vice-president, Cecil Mashburng secre- tary, Virginia Pleasantsg and treasurer, Gladys Weaver. Our guide on this step was Mr. Garland Talton. He warned us not to get too close to the edge for some would fall back just as some had done the first year. Mr. Talton again drilled figures into our heads using algebra as the tool. We wanted to hear a foreign language spoken this high up, consequently, Mrs. Ligon said she would teach us Latin. It proved to be very fascinating. We could really speak Latin. Mr. Mayo taught us biology. Many entered tne Declamation Contest. Cecil Mashburn won the medal given by the Oxford Lodge. Marshall Wilson received Honorable Mention. What! So soon? Another step loomed up, but we were ready for it. This step, being next to the top and a very important one, brings back many happy memories. Thus, our Junior year began. President, Russell Wiley, vice-president, Jerry Surlesg secretary, Pauline Radford, and treasurer, Virginia Pleasants. Mr. Mayo, our guide on this step, proved to be a very helpful one. He taught us chemistry and helped us with many new experiments. Mrs. Ligon agreed to help us another year with Latin since we were such brilliant students and Page Fourty mne 4 ' 'il-fr-ef , -s,,- -1 i --x, f ---,.. . -rg ,,...

Cecil Mashburn, a very competent and outstanding leader undertook the office as president of our Student Government Council. Again we have some entering the Public Speaking Contest. The winner of the Oxford Orphanage Medal was our own class member, Betty Garner. She can really talk, just wait and see. Russell Wiley, a very talented baritone, received a Superior Rating in the District Music Meet. Cecil Mashburn, a good sport and athlete, was co-captain of our football team along with one of those upper class seniors. In the spring, we Juniors sponsored the annual J unior-Senior Banquet and picnic. Both were carried off very smoothly and everyone had a wonderful time. At last we saw the top of the stairway. There were twenty-two who had remained in our little band. We were given the most honored title as Seniors Mrs. Ligon, who had stood by us and helped us all along the way, was our main guide. Sometimes the going was rough, but she stuck by us till the end. She taught us some last important things in English and literature. Mr. Currin taught us helpful ways of solving social and economic problems. Mr. Talton again drilled figures into our heads through business arithmetic and geometry. Miss Myrtie Hight gave instruction in typing which we all liked very much. On our last and most important step our president was Cecil Mashburn, vice-president, Virginia Pleasants: secretary, Pauline Radford, and treasurer, Ernest Forbes. For their last time, some again tried their luck in public speaking. Shirley Beane received Honorable Mention in the Girls' Recitation Contest, but we Seniors had a contest all our own just to see who our best speaker was. There, on the top-most round of our Steps to Success, stood Betty Garner, waving her medal around and jeering at her fellow classmates to get a close look at her medal. Doris Coley, who received Honorable Mention, was right next to Betty with a look of Higher Culture on her face. ' The World Peace Speaking Contest came along shortly and guess who walked off with the medal? None other than Betty- Garner. She has almost as many medals as General MacArthur. Cecil Mashburn, after all those years of good, clean playing, was captain of our fiiotballteam. He earned that title and did a fine job while holding it. Again Russell Wiley made a Superior Rating at the District Music Meet. The Juniors honored us with the Junior-Senior Banquet which held a big surprise for us. The Desert Knights of the Greensboro Shrine Club rendered the music for our dance which took place after the Banquet. This will always be looked back upon with fond memories. Near the end of our trip up the Steps to Success, three of our town students: Carrie Hobgood, Ann Johnson, and Marshall Wilson invited the Senior Class to a brunswick stew. We all had a delightful time. Thus, we have reviewed the adventures on each round of the Steps to Success. With Banners of red and white flowing out in the breeze, we, the Seniors of 1950, stand on the topmost round of our Steps to Success.

The duties and lessons we learned so well, Taken so lightly, and yet they tell Of how each year and moment flies Across our bleak and transient lives, Since first we entered school that day Was it a dozen summers, Or only yesterday? But now, as we stand on a new threshold, Confident, jubilant, young, and bold,' Our souls drift outward valiantly, Voyaging on in a questing sea For a treasure above the common rabble, For which the august and the plebian grabble. And blest is he who does not fail, Who misses the rock and sets his sail, To the prize that set his heart afire- The treasure-trove of his desire. Tomorrow, the noise and the glare will come, And the spirit of youth will again be dumb. How shall we garner this vision bright That blazes here in red and white, Written for us in the wondrous sheen Of the spark of youth with its golden dream, Which flashes a moment and lights once more This torch of desire at life's dim door? How shall we merit the priceless dower Of this immortal hour? Long, long after these years have flown, And we have older and wiser grown, We'll know how fortune has tried us,' What things we sought were denied us- Long life, the fulfilment of a dream- Rarely attained in the deepening stream Of the affairs of men. Those things, Taken for what life brings, Come only to those who have known it- Who live, and do something to show it. BETTY GARNER. Ss li - Y 'If 7--Y-Ti--- 3L:' ,': T... 15- ' V T-' , ' , iii!

For those who were the most anxious to finish school and get out are the ones destined to bawl loudest and moan longest. Furthermore, many of these, if not all shall settle in the home town of the Ole Home. These are the apples of Stephen Foster's eye, for they shall fulfill his greatest dream, and be consecutive leaders for the forty-third time of the Hit Parade and still popular, The Old Folks at Home. It was not long ago that I felt very tired. and fell asleep or rather in a daze, for I had been working unusally hard. I had fallen into this daze while thinking of the tomorrows of my classmates. I speak of their tomorrows, for I dreamed that I was spon- soring the undertaking business. That I also would be the last to see them and bid them farewell on the lay-away plan. At the same time, I would be con- sidered the biggest hypocrite of all times, namely, because I had tried to look sad at a 510,000 funeral. My first vision was of a girl-can you imagine such misfortune? Yes, the girl was Virginia Pleasants. Although she was one of the smartest in our class, in fact, the salutatorian, it fell her lot to marry soon after graduation, and she married a fine lad, but the tragedy was she had to dedicate the rest of her life putting him through school thigh schooll. Faintly to my ears comes the music of the Sunshine Quartet, formed by the Orphanage farm hands: Henry Martin, Claude Satterfield, Hubert Lloyd, and Silas Gooch. They have organized under the leadership of Dick Aydt, who was the Caruso of the Monotone Section during his earlier life in his glee club. And now I hear the sweet singing of Shirley Beane, who wanted to make the grade of a private secretary, but finally became a hillbilly singer over station W OX F, with Filipino Baby for a theme song. Suddenly there was a big flash and a loud noise, but it was only Ann Johnson in the laboratory of the John Nichols School. When the bricks stopped falling and the smoke had cleared away, I could see them carrying her to the Hicks Memorial Hospital, where she might receive expert care from Daisy Mae Flow, the head nurse. Here comes the ambulance, no, it's Marshall Wilson, in a new con- vertible with the loudest wolf horn in town. From what I find, Marshall has about won the heart of Betty Garner, who has combined her wit, ar- tistic ability, and fine sense of humor, and holds the position as humor editor for The Orphans' Friend and Masonic Journal. From Calvin Pleasants, a city-slick' traveling salesman, I learn that Ruth Peedin has had all her dreams, wishes, and aspirations partially filled. She had hoped to marry some rich maharajah, or an Indian chief. Well. she's an Indian chief's squaw, but I cannot vouch for the riches. She married at the promise of many oil wells. They were oil wells, but they were dry Page Fifty-two fi 1 I-4 - 1, A' : -1 efff ' 1 ' nga! r- fs- --' fz., 3, -.L -1 1...-L ---- 7.6541 - ' ' -' Q- 1 - : - - - , . -, - ,Y 'xv .--- -- -Q' 1950 -f..- -1-- ll-,. , ,,,.,, .4 .9 - -..-.- vqju -U - --W rx.. 1 -74 , .av if Q, Q-gp Q ' 7.43. i - .-.- 41 ! ,, CTHE LUC- oil wells. Now she is very lonely except for the occasional train that passes but never stops. ' Then my dream turned to animals and such. Billy Harrell, who went to State College for sixteen years and passed two courses, is now assisting Pauline Radford in her office of dentistry. By the way her calling card reads, RADFORD'S DENTISTRY, and under- neath that: Ah! It's such a relief to remove your teeth! Well, there's Jack Moore! What! Did I hear you say? Ernest Forbes is breaking in horses on a ranch in Montana! Well, he was always good at that any way. He acquired his ability by riding the mules on the Orphanage farm. By the way, Jack, who has always been an authority on love ftrue lovej is now a divorce judge in Reno. lAnd is he plenty tough ! lj Now as I float through the air, I see a big factory section with large neon signs. On one WILEY AND MASHBURN BASEBALL SUPPLIES blaze forth. I also find out that they have some small businesses. Cecil Mashburn is now a 'big league pitcher. He manufactures his own balls, and has a thirty game record of defeats. Russell handles and makes toothpicks from all the broken bats. I see yet another sign which reads: Are you tired and worn down? Do you look like a heel, feel like a heel? If so, come to see Cobbler Mizzelle, who is a saver of soles and surgeon of old shoes, and let him put you on the road to recovery. Marvin has also invented the answer to a cobbler's dream, a tack strech- er, and now he is working on another dream, the green oil can. Well, well, there is ex-seamstress Carrie Hobgood, who is now a detective. After great awards for her last accomplishment, the finding of The Lost Chord, she has started to Look for the Silver Lining. For the interest of the public, these industries are on the outskirts of town. Speaking of businesses, through the mist, I see Julia Fitchette, who has returned to the Orphanage to run the Candy Corner, which she says is her business, so let her mind it. Then I dreamed that the first to die was Doris Coley, who realized her ambition and became a registered. nurse, but after all, it proved to be her doom, for fate had her to pay the price of all her type for 'brushing her first patient's teeth with shaving cream. Mary Lou Mills, whom we used to tease by calling her Toady, has turned the joke in reverse and laughed at all. She returned with an ingenious idea and bought all rights, priorities, and privileges, and now has the biggest bullfrog farm in the world, and has more greenbacks than all the rest of the class combined. Now to my last classmate, Virginia Whittington, the tomboy of the class.- she always boasted that she would work on the railroad. Well, she clears the track for the Pea Vine Special that rides the rails bordering our farm. Though all this was only a dream, I can predict for all of them, that there is turly an end to all things, and this prophecy is no exception. Respectfully, HJEREMIAI-I.,' Page Fifty three 1950 CTHE LUG- Last will and Testament of the Class of 1950 ltfiillifill Be it remembered that we, the Class of 1950, of John Nichols High School, in the town of Oxford, in the County of Granville, in the State of North Carolina, being in a sound state of mind and memory, but ever mindful of the uncertainty of this life, and our approaching dismemberment, do make, publish, and declare this our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills by us made. As we set forth in the wide expanse of civilization, we feel that we should ,leave a few of our possessions to those remaining here to carry on the necessary work. We dispose of such property in the following manner: ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE L ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE Page .Fifty-fO11r I. II. III IV. V. VI VII.

To Reverend A. D. Leon Gray, our superintendent, we leave our sincere appreciation for all he has done. May he be rewarded with happiness for his efforts as he continues his great work in helping to make worthwhile citizens. Mr. Regan, our good-natured principal, we leave the school building in good shape. We shall cherish the memories of our pleasant years with him. q To all the members of the staff, we bequeath our thanks for the time they have spent, and the hard work they have done for us that we might be better prcpared to face the world. To the Junior Class, we leave our places as leaders among the students, and the duties we performed in such a dignified way. We sincerely hope they keep all on the straight and narrow path. To the Sophomore Class, we leave our worn but useful book of instruc- tions. How to Sweet Talk Teachers, hoping it provides them with the advantages it has afforded us. To the Freshmen, who we are sure will feel lost in high school, we leave most helpful guides, our grade parents, Miss Bertha Hobson and Mr. Edward Kerr. They have so kindly helped us through our years that we wish to have someone else share their generosity. To Mrs. Ligon, our homeroom teacher. we leave thanks from the .depth of our hearts. No one knows how much she works to make everything the class does a success. Section ll Louis Aydt, with a sad heart, leaves to John Wiley all his love letters from Marian McMillan, in hopes that John may get a good start in life. To Martha Trevathan, Shirley Beane wishes to leave her most highly honored position in the Glee Club, hoping that Martha may tour the world singing solos. Doris Coley very gladly leaves to Jerrine McMillan her most enjoyable place as head-girl in the Boys' Dining Room. Doris hopes that Jerrine will gain as many friends as she did when the time came to serve ice cream. To Annie Mae Danford, Julia Fitchette leaves her gray skirt with a broken zipper, a worn out dress, and a slightly used rat trap. Here's hoping she will take great pride in keeping them. fl .ti F I .f 1- - tate- -.1 f ry ARTICLE V. ARTICLE VI. ARTICLE VII ARTICLE VIII. ARTICLE IX. ARTICLE X ARTICLE XI. ARTICLE XII ARTICLE XIII.

THE LUG- Daisy Mae Flow, who has lived in 4-G five years, bequeaths her place to Clara Lamb. Ernest Lee Forbes bequeaths to Knocker Debnam his worn out brogans. With these he may be able to talk Mr. Hill out of another pair. Since Iris Sheffield intends to become the master mind of the F. B. I., Betty Garner leaves to her all the mystery books, in order that they might enable Iris to solve some of her more complicated cases. Billy Harrell leaves to Bill Danford and Shorty Sheffield his seat on the steps of the corn crib beside Mr. Peake. Carrie Watkins Hobgood leaves to Linda Redd all her important papers on all subjects. She hopes Linda will enjoy her last year in school and will not have to work so hard. Ann Johnson leaves all of her beautiful horses to Shirley Mason, hoping Shirley will have as much fun with them as she did. Cecil Mashburn wills to Jack Barger all his thirteen cows, also the electric milker that goes with them. He hopes Jack will survive all the swift kicks that come his way without warning. Mary Lou Mills wishes to leave to Rose Threadgill her orange bedroom shoes, size 1115. May Rose enjoy wearing them as much as she has. Marvin Mizzelle wills to his beloved brother, B. D., his curious way of going to sleep in every class but still making the honor roll. Ruth Peedin bequeaths to Marian McMillan her age-old blue bedroom slippers, which usually confuse the on-lookers as to whether she is going backward or forward. She hopes Marian will enjoy wearing them, because she has been begging for them ever since Ruth got them. Virginia Pleasants leaves to Frances Jones her ability to admire certain ones from Oxford High School. Calvin Pleasants wills to Martha Trevathan, Rosalyn Lamb, and Joan Johnson all his mystery books. Pauline Radford leaves to her sister, Iva Leah, her ability to launder boys' Sunday shirts and get many comments fnot complimentsj from them. Jerry T. Surles does not bequeath, leave, or will anything. He is going to pay Clark Armstrong to keep a pair of excellent tennis shoes, air- conditioned. He has had them since they were bought six years ago. He is going to pay Clark to keep him from trying to give them back. To Catherine Whittington, her sister, Virginia, leaves her most trea- sured piggy bank, in hopes that Catherine will be able to count the pennies every night like Silas Marner, without the girls thinking there is a band in the house. Russell Wiley wills to Betty Jo Harrell and the rest of the trio his winning ways with the judges over at Meredith College, in hopes they may get a higher rating next year. Marshal Wilson leaves to his brother, Gilbert, his interest in business arithmetic and gemoetry. Last but not least, I, Jack Moore, having no material possessions to leave to anyone, leave Oxford Orphanage, not as I found it twelve years ago, when a mere lad, not realizing its greatness, but a Home, with the interest of all those connected, proving itself worthy of a place among the great institutions serving mankind. Hereunto the Class of 1950 sets its hand and seal and do declare this document legal and imperishable. WITNESSES: CHARLES ROBERT MCLAMB. DUNCAN CABELL RECAN CLASS OF 1950.

Facts about Sophomores IND' There were twenty-nine sophomores enrolled for the year 1949-19505 two of the town boys found it necessary to stop school, so as the year ends, we have twenty-seven Members of the class have been very active in extra-curricular activities. Thirteen have participated in various speech contestsg fifteen were members of the glee club, and six of the boys played varsity football. Every member of the class was also a member of the Nettie N. Bemis Club. . The girls have enjoyed their different sports also.

Coach Regan and Coach Talton endured all the defeats their teams took. Many of the boys that broke into the lineup, and also the substitutes will have some hard earned experience next year. The boys that are leaving are, Dick Aydt, end, Jack Moore and Calvin Pleasants, guardsg Russell Wiley, tackle, Jerry Surles, Billy Harrell, Ernest Forbes, Marvin Mizzelle, and Cecil Mashburn, backs. With these boys gone there will be many places to fill, but the coaches have the material, and we all wish them the best of luck. Red Devils Lose First Game Rocky Mount registered two quick touchdowns in the first quarter to defeat the Red Devils, 21-7. The Blackbirds of Rocky Mount won the toss and chose to receive. A few minutes later McAdams scored for Rocky Mount. The extra point was good. The Red Devils brought the kick-off back to their 22 yard line. On the next play, Mashburn fumbled, and Rocky Mount recovered. Sonny Carr then took the ball on a reverse and raced 25 yards for another Rocky Mount touchdown. The score at the half was 14-0. After the third period was under way the Blackbirds scored their last touchdown of the game. Croom took the pigskin over from the three yard stripe. Early in the fourth quarter Louis Aydt caught one of Cecil Mashburn's passes in the end zone for a touchdown- The extra point was good. The game ended 21-7 in favor of Rocky Mount.

Page One Hundred Twenty-six 1950 CTHE LHC- Physical Edycation For Girls Physical Education, as we all know, is an important part of the modern pro- gram of general education. It gives the student important experience in living as 3 mfember of a group, as well as an indivi- ua . Our instructor, Miss Louise Pender, is one who is very capable of teaching this subject to the girls in the class. This class is composed of all girls from the ninth through the twelfth grades. Those who cannot attend this class have similar ac- tivities at two o'clock in the afternoon. The sports taken up consist of basekt- ball, volley ball, catpain ball, and softball. On rainy days dancing is enjoyed in the Masonic Hall. Still there are other days that are so MISS LOUISE PENDER beautiful that we take advantage of them Girls' Athletic Director and go for hikes around our farm. Basketball is the game which is enjoyed most by the girls. We do not play other schools, but we have just as much fun playing among ourselves. After a few weeks of practice we are ready to begin our tournament- This is always met by a great deal of enthusiasm from all. The grades choose their own teams. Most of the games were played on Saturday nights, thus enabling the boys and several of the members of the faculty to see them. Mr. T. B. Currin and Dr. James Pruitt were kind enough to referee our games. The 2:30 Group were the Champions, but skill and sportsmanship were shown by the other teams also. As much as we like the game of basketball, we cannot resist going out of doors in the spring. So we venture out to take up volley ball and soft- ball. We have some very nice equipment with which to play these games. Part of the money used to furnish these comes from the girls in the class. Interest as well as skill in the various games seems to increase with the years. So we can say that the future looks very bright for the on coming physical education classes.

A month went by and the boys were broke, but not the Taltons, they came up with a new car. As the boys came home from work that day Ernest Forbes, seeing the car out in front asked who could own a slick baby like that. Upon finding out, he said I didn't think ping pong balls cost that much anyway. Page One Hundred Thirty-two K3 Mr. Regan: Son, did I catch a fish! It was enormous. It was t-h-a-t long!

Their first night in the jun- gle was a sleepless one. The next morn- ing they started out early and soon came upon fresh tracks which Mr. Talton identified as being a big lion.
