Defcxils of The Post In the fall of 1949, we, the 1961 graduates, began the long journey up from the first grade. Our class was divided into two homerooms, Miss June Poole te a ch in g one and Miss Nannie Lou Adcock the other. We had an enrollment of about forty students. During our eight years in grammar school we lost a few students, yet we gained a few. Our Freshman year in high school was one of the greatest of our lives. Our teachers were Mrs. S. M. Watkins, Mrs. Mary T. Stovall, Miss Clelon McLaurin, Mrs. Vera Puryear, Mr. B. J. Neal, and our principal-Mr. L. C. Adcock. Mrs. Vera Puryear was our homeroom teacher. In our second year in high school we were named Sophomores. We had an even wider field of interest than we had had in our first year. Mrs. Vera Puryear was once again our homeroom teacher. We elected our class officers and got to work. The next year our being Juniors gave us a great thrill. With the help of our able sponsor, Mrs. Stovall, we produced our play, For the Love of Pete. Danny Wilkinson and Charles Frazier, Jr., played the leading roles. We selected royal blue as the color of our class rings, and everyone was very happy when the rings came. In the spring we gave the Seniors a banquet, with Mardi Gras as our theme. At last we reached the twelfth and final year of school. Now we were the Dig nifie d Seniors ' of Oak Hill High School, twenty-seven strong and full of learning. We selected Esse quam videri for our motto, blue and white for our class colors, and the red rose for our class flower. Our president was Sherwood Clark. We presented a hilarious Senior play and the Juniors gave us a beautiful banquet in the spring. After graduation our days at Oak Hill will be at an end. We will be forever grateful to our teachers, to Mr. Adcock, our principal, and to our sponsor, Mrs. S. M. Watkins, for the help and guidance they have given us. THOMAS WATSON Historian 17
