Class H istofjf ln 1959 113 eager- eyed students from Phillips and Willow Grove Elemen- tary Schools entered Phillips High School to start on the long, hard journey to higher education. Our teachers were Nlr. Harris, Mrs. Cade, and Mrs. Smith, who so carefully explained the great responsibilities that we had to take in order to reach our educational goal. By the time our sophomore year arrived we had really learned what the new life was like and what was expected of us. Due to an enrollment in- crease, Mr. Hardy joined us as an adviser. Our junior year seemed the most exciting one of all--we sponsored the Junior-Senior Prom in honor of the Class of 62. The theme of the prom was Neptune's Court. Miss I. L. Joyner and M.r. S. V. Brown, our dedicated instructors, assisted with the planning of this affair, which was, perhaps, the greatest one ever presented at Phillips. Although we gave much attention to the prom, we were also busy trying to maintain desirable academic averages. Joyce Cooper, Chaiman of a science project, won second place at the Science Fair, Mary Lyons and Helen Hines were outstanding in Debating, and James Parker was popular in the Band. At last we reached the Senior Class, much wiser and cultured than in the Freshman Class. Our eyes and minds were exploring various fields for our career choices. Mrs. E. C. Blakey and Mrs. E. T. James were very informa- tive and they advised us extremely well. It was in 1958 that the last annual was published, so we feel highly honored that our beloved principal, Mx. J. E. Batts, trusted our ability to undertake this task. Nlrs. E. H. Yates, our yearbook adviser, will be re- membered by the Phillips Family for her most excellent assistance, wholesome guidance, and the many hours spent helping us to organize and publish the 1963 BULLDOG. Our parents were of great assistance to us during our school life, and we offer endless thanks to them for having kept us in school, and for having ad- monished us to higher learning. As Sojourner Truth so wonderfully stated and I quote, I think of the great things of God, and not the little things. unquote As we review our four years of high school work, which have been pleasur- able and painful, we feel proud of our progress, however, it is not the end of our journey- -it is just the beginning. With our motto in mind, we now face the world, and the history of the Class of 1963 is placed on record. Class Historian Warren Hart 1,211 X 30
