S759 Cgenzbf' GQSS Class Colors: Blue and Gold Class Flower: white Rose Class Motto: A quitter never winsg a winner never quits, Class Advisor: Myrtle M. Daniels 5031! anof fjesfamenf We the senior class of 1955 being of sound mind and in full possession of all our facul- ties do hereby make declare and publish this document as our last will and testament. We, having gone the last mile with our devoted teachers and friends, do now desire to dispose of our rights and privileges in the following manner, viz.: Item I To our beloved Alma Mater we leave our undying gratitude for the many noble services she has rendered us since we first entered her portals of learning, May her influence continue to follow us through life. Item H To our administrators, staff members and faculty we extend our deepest appreciation for what they have meant to us. Item HI In spite of the fact that most of us need to take all our points with us, we bequeath to the rising seniors the following: Ida Presnell hands down her study periods to Betty Jean Whitley and to Joyce Smith her seat in the French class, Ruth Lovett wills her mail- carrying job to Velma Keller, her sales job at the Knickle Knack to Bill Jacobs, and her soft speaking voice to Mack Hocutt, To Shirley Tester Zelia Chandler leaves her place in the voice class and to Pearlie Mayers her capacity for eating and staying slender. Jessie Ward wills her talent to piano playing to Lewis Modlin and her ability to do memory work to Robert Morris who would do it gladly for a little extra credit. George Carter passes on to Ike Collins his knack for learning French, to Carl Winchester his power of concenuation and to Bernice Mikeal his ability to stay awake in class, To the student body we leave our best wishes for their success both in school and in life. Signed sealed and declared by the senior class on the ninth of June in the year of Our Lord one thousand nine hundred fifty-five.
