CLASS WML We, the Senior Class of 1959, having arrived at graduation, and being adjudged sound of mind and with a capacity for learning yet untried, do make, publish, and declare this our Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and annulling any and all will or wills made by us before. We leave only what we can't take with ll! f We leave the school as a whole, a few scarred desks, marred walls, our laughter lingering forever through the halls, and the four best years of our life, To the faculty we leave PEACE forever from this class, and an assurance that we will never bother them again. We leave our love for them, and our gratitude for their helpfulness and kind understanding, To the Juniors: That Certain Senior Something, and our superiority complex. To the Sophomores: The art of silence, We are sure they can use it. To the Freshmen: Our Best Wishes....... To various pupils about the school, who we feel especially need them, we do hereby give and bequeath the following articles: Oscar Boswell hands over his gavel with a sigh of relief to the next year's President of the Student Body. He leaves his genius for writing plays to Ewalt Willging, hoping that his plays can get past the office of Mr. Phillips. Beatrice Nickles leaves her scholastic ability and wide vocabulary to the first sophomore who feels that he or she needs it. One at a time, please! 8 Edith Miller leaves Q set of treasurer s books that would stagger anyone. Dorothy Hills departs with her diamond ring, but she bequeathes her cheery smile to Mr. Phillips, to help brighten his days. ' Winifred leaves her ability to set to--No, on sec- ond thought, she has decided to take it with her, as she will most definitely be needing it in a few years, Gordy Hill' leaves his ability fwith regrets! to throw the shot to some lucky underclassman, Hg glgg leaves Joe Boyd his pugilistic ability. Joan McCoy loaves broken fingernails, hours of labor, and ruined stencils to June Yancey, who will edit the Annual next year. She leaves Geometry with a glad sigh, '13

SENKJK BALL Picture students clad in gayly colored gowns a- gainst dark suits in a dimly lighted garden, gracefully dancing to the strains of beautiful music. Enclosing the garden were mountains on the North side behind a built-up orchestra pit on the bleachers. Shrubbery and garden plants banked garden chairs where spectators sat. On the East side was the Princess' throne, with a huge outdoor fireplace in the corner, A hedge and white picket fence set off the green grass in front of the throne. In the South, a stucco, Southern styled mansion was banked by green trees. The picket fence again gave the effect of dancing on a terraced garden. On the West side, lattice work with colorful flow- ers completely enclosed the punch stand and the fence and hedge, enclosing the garden. In the center of the floor was built a very real- istic rock garden poolgs Garden chairs were found in corners for couples who wished to watch the scene un- folding before them. Dancing began at 9:00 o'clock on April 1, l959a The Grand March was led by Oscar Boswell and Joan McCoy. Following the Grand March was the crowning of Princess June I by Mrr Phillips. She was attended by LaVerne Bergren and Maggie Moody.. f-' NH AX x...LfX.DJ Wednesday, May l7, the annual Class Day was held.
