PRESIDENT Teddy Peters VICE PRESIDENT Alby Conner SECRETARY June Gossom TREASURER Patsy Ross Senior C lt adS Just a few years ago, we the Senior Class of 1950 entered Osbourn High School. Frightening experience, entering high school. Vague rumors of foreign lan¬ guages, and of things called geometry, chemistry, and trig reached us by way of our more learned friends and neighbors. We were a little scared, but very proud. I ' m a freshman, we casually told our admiring young¬ er friends. Somehow our class endured the trials of Rat Week, irregular verbs in Latin class, and algebraic equations. Then, suddenly, the year was gone, and our Senior idols had departed. A delightful summer passed, as summers must, and we returned to Osbourn, Sophomores. As sophomores we took a greater part in school activities. Our classmates served in the Senate, or as S. C. A. and club officials; we joined clubs and played on intra-mural and school teams. We knew the upper¬ classmen and our teachers better, but felt a little left out during Rat Week and the Prom. Another Senior Class graduated, another summer sped by, and when September came, we were Juniors. Our names were seen more often in Gussie; the select few among us made the Honor Society; our classes were harder; occasionally we inspired looks of Freshman awe; we worked like mad on the Prom; our classmates made the team in sports; we got our school rings at long last. All this and much more we associate with our Junior year. For the Five-Year Senior, the year before graduation was in many ways the best, and certainly the strangest in high school. At the Prom, he was technically a Junior, yet he went to the Senior Banquet, to various Senior parties, and took part in other Senior activities with the knowledge that he would be back the next year. Then his classmates graduated in 1949. A summer of friends discussing colleges and jobs followed, and he entered his Senior year. Dignified Seniors. It was hard to believe that only a year was left. Then before we knew it, mid-term came, and only half a year remained. Already we had at¬ tended our last Christmas assembly. The Seniors on the football team had played their last game for Os¬ bourn. Then the time flew until Easter, and after Easter, it flew even faster. Now it is time to paste our last entries into our memory books along with the Prom tickets and me¬ mentoes of other years. It is not easy to end an asso¬ ciation built up over many years. The finest time of our lives we will have had at Osbourn. We will re¬ member it. And with the conceit evident in Senior Classes everywhere, we want our Alma Mater to remember us.
