LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the graduating class of 1955, have come to the point where our school days are limited, and we think we should leave something to those who will take our places. To Mr. Adcock, we give and bequeath a feeling of relief that we have at last been graduated. To our advisor, Mrs. Watkins, we leave all our test papers, book reports and our famed Elizabethan Theater. To our teachers, the faculty of Oak Hill High School, we hereby give, free from all inheritance, our entire store of knowledge. From them it came and to them it should be returned that others may benefit from it. To the Freshman Class, young and unsophisticated, we leave a map of the school building, so that they will not get lost and get in everybody's way looking for the class- room. To the Sophomore Class, we leave our patience and we hope it will be found useful. To the Junior Class, we give, reluctantly but of necessity, our mantle of dignity. We realize that the class can never fill it but since it is expected of them our advice is, Grin and Wear It. I, Josephine Overton, leave my big mouth to Helen Jones. I, Marie Champion, leave my ability to get married to Gertie Bagbey. I, Joyce Seate Overby, leave my talent to Shellie Nelson. I, Mary Anne Elliotte Hughes, leave my friendly ways to Glennis Boyd. I, Jewell Rice, leave my good looks to Mary Lyle Perkins. I, Alma Bray, leave my ability to play ball to Gertie Bagbey. I, Faye Pittard, leave my ability to date every night to Helen Jones. I, Pauline West, leave my old maid ways to Mildred Overton. I, Margaret Woods, leave my best all-round ways to Ruth Elliott. I, Lois Greenway, leave my witty ways to Dorothy Cifers. I, Mary Lee Englebright, leave my ability to succeed to Shellie Nelson. I, Richard Culbreth, leave my ability to laugh to Winn Vaughan. I, Waylon Champion, leave my flirty ways to Tennie Melton. I, Lewis Boyd, leave my height to Joel Woodlief. I, Howard Oliver, leave my quiet ways to Herman Elliotte and Joe Cottrell. I, Bruce Blackwell, leave my ability to slave for Mr. Adcock to Reid Jones. I, Howard Jones, leave my ability to hold a girl friend to Robert Lee Elliotte and Wilbur Perkins. I, Stuart Vaughan, leave my ability to dress nice to Dan Mangrum and Irvan Seate. I, Tom Woods, leave my ability to sing to Grover Yancey and G. W. Newton. In witness thereof, we the Senior Class of 1955 have set our seal, this 18th day of May, one thousand nine hundred and fifty-five. Joyce Seate Overby--Testator
