cnior We, the graduating class of ' 51 even though we didn ' t become full-piedgedhigh school students until the following year, when 35 eager but frightened boys and girls entered Mrs. Wood ' s room. We felt we had a long, hard road ahead, especially since the lZth grade had been added. Joan Obaugh was elected Presidentof the Freshman Class; Gay Walter, Vice President; Benny Dize, Secretary; and Polly Bundick, Treasurer. We had much fun along with the hard work. The climaxing event of the year was a barn dance and weenie roast held at the Mullen farm which we thoroughly enjoyed. The next year found us well adjusted to high school. With Mrs. Booth as our home room teacher we settled down to work. The Sophomore President was Polly Bundick; Vice President, Hope Mullen; Secretary, Barbara Evans; and Treasurer, Dick Burton. Even though we were unable to have any outstanding events of our own that year, we thoroughly enjoyed the numerous school events. The Football, Basketball and Family Ball was originated that year. Championship teams were supplied by the able members of our class. We could now feel that we were an essential part of our school. We entered our Junior year with gre at expe ctations . Mrs . Booth was again our home room teacher. Officers were elected as follows : President, Joan Obaugh; Vice President, Gay Walter; Secretary, Patty Chance; and Treasurer, Bobby Northcott. Our days were busy ones ! We sold Christmas cards, pennants, stationery, held bakes and did various other things in order to supply our treasury with sufficient funds for the many nice things we had planned. In February we produced our first play, Bill ' s Night Out, and were surprised as well as proud of its huge success. We again enjoyed the Football, Basketball and Family Ball which has become an annual event. We were also proud of the Championship football and baseball teams , comprised largely of boys from our class. The usual joy came from receiving our class rings. The main event of theyear was the Junior-Senior Prom. We had worked hard to make this occasion possible and we hope that the class of ' 51 enjoyed it as much as we. In 1950 we, as a group of 26 entered high school in September for the last time. Mrs. Booth stepped up with us to guide us through our Senior year. Our President was Polly Bundick; Vice President, Bill Eazenby; Secretary, Joan Obaugh; Treasurer, Dick Burton. We started the year off with a bang by traveling in a bus to Charlottesville where we saw a football game, (U. Va. vs G. W. U. ) and visited several historical shrines. After the fun, however, we had to get down to work. Now that we were Seniors we realized that we had a heavy burden on our shoulders. The Annual had to be published and our play produced. We presented The Real Mr. McCoy inDecember. We had doneitagain. it was a huge success ! ! During the usual hustle and bustle which preceeded Graduation, we took time off to attend the beautiful Junior-Senior Prom, given in our behalf. It was truly enjoyed as well as appreciated. Class Night, Baccalaureate and lastly Graduation, came quicker than we had expected. Some were glad, some sad; but, whatever the case may be, the curtain has gone down on an important phase of our lives. The fun we had and the friends we made at our Alma Mater will never be forgotten. POLLY BUNDICK C iaAA J4idtor V were initiated into Mrs. Belote ' s 8th grade in 1946 , 13
