THOMPSON TUCKER WHITTEMORE YOUNTS YOW DIXON TUCKER .1 -F. la-ef , . 1 .521 -i -ew' W 10 l-IISTGRY GF Tl-IE CLASS OF '49 Our high school career began in September 1945. The upperclass students paid little attention to the mere freshmen, but we are sure they knew we were around dear old P. G. H. S. Our class was large and we were assigned to two classrooms. Mr. DeLoach and Mrs. Cooper were in charge of the two groups. Betty Jo Fields guided the destinies of the class, as president this first year. Several parties were given, but nothing important happened. Since we did not feel the urge to act we decided to let play giving wait until later years. The introduction of twelve grades into the school system had its effect on graduation. There iust wasn't any graduating class. Commencement was closing school for the summer. ln the fall of 1946 we were again in P. G. H. S., this time as Sophomores. Bill Gamble was elected president to guide the activities of the class for one year. Mr. Dawson, iust back from the Philippines, was our homeroom teacher. Study took up most of the time C?J. Several parties broke the monotony of school work and one in particular stands out as something to be remembered. This party was given by the generous owner of the Old Mill . He gave us a wiener roast with all the things that go to make up a real treat. The good time had by all could not be spoiled even by the hard rain that pelted down on the roof of the old mill building. At last we were Juniors. Bill Gamble was again our president and Mr. Dawson our sponsor. The Junior-Senior Banquet loomed big on the calendar and great was the relief when it was announced we could pay our bills. The rural comedy Aaron Slick from Punkin Crick was an important factor in geting the money needed. April of this year took on a different appearance when it was learned that the banquet was to take place in the O'Henry Hotel, early in this month. The Junior-Senior Banquet was a great success and the class had done what some thought impossible. Memories of the occasion lingered with the class until the end of the school year. In the spring we helped graduate the Senior Class and our daisy chain was beautiful faccording to remarksl. At last the school term '48 and '49 began, after a long delay, and we were really seniors. We felt we had accomplished something. Our calendar year was full. There was the Spotlight to be edited and printed, the annual to be gotten out, invitations to be chosen and finally graduation day to be prepared for. All these things called for work and more work. Money was needed for the annual, and a lot of it, too. When we talked to Mr. Dawson, our class sponsor, about it, he wanted to know if we really understood how many dollars were needed. We didn't, but hard work made up the difference. Corn pulling, hauling and husking, pin selling, stationery sales, and selling at the games, aided by the class play finally piled up enough dollars to pay our way out of the difficulties. The Spotlight improved from issue to issue and the annual became a reality, the Hi-Lights. Ann Fields, our class president for the senior year, worked untiringly for success of our under- takings. Her efforts and the cooperation of the class, together with their hard work, brought success. The wiener roast given the class by the room representatives, after the corn husking, was a treat that will be remembered by all those who enioyed it. Ann Fields, Hi-Lights Editor, was chosen to receive the Civitan Award. The Junior-Senior Banquet was different this year . . . we were the honored ones, and we enjoyed it very much. Graduation closed our last chapter to the school history of the closs of '49. Individual members will write the next installments to this beginning. Lucille Whittemore, Historian. WE, THE CLASS OF 1949, have acquired many good and some bad characteristics during our twelve years together.

James Thompson, Testator. CLASS PROPI-IECY Good evening ladies and gentlemen. This is station W.P.G.H.S. bringing you a historical television program about the members of the class of 1949. We are going on a trip down the future years and see the happenings affecting our classmates. Before we start tho' I'd like to thank our sponsors, the faculty of the Pleasant Garden 12 High School, who have made it possible, by their patient understanding, cooperation and guidance, for this pro- gram to be presented at this time. Well to get along with ton'ight's program. The opera fans at the Metropolitan have iust finished a big ovation and the bass soloist has taken his bow. Wait until he straightens up again. l cannot see his face, yes it is Wilton Melvin. Who is that seated at the piano? No wonder the playing sounds familiar because the accompanist is none other than our own Catherine Hughes. Our scene now changes back to Dixie and to the home of the former Peggy Jean Marley. Peggy is putting a cute little boy to bed for his afternoon nap . . . no it's not one boy, it's two boys . . . twins! Peggy looks very happy and we know she has two good reasons to be, a husband and twins. Well for goodness sakes who is that tall man leaving the Patrol Headquarters? You guessed it. lt's Captain Zeno H. Dixon of the North Carolina Highway Patrol. His black and silver patrol car has the speed needed to catch his man, even if he is driving a model A. The main street of Greensboro comes into view and who do l see in that sales room? Garland Fogleman. Garland is trying hard to sell a beautiful new Ford to the former Mary Ruth Yow. He seems to think she needs it so that she can travel with her husband and family, the largest for ten miles around. Our scene changes to our home-town P. G. There is a basketball game going on in the Gym. l can't tell who is playing, but l see that P. G. girls are way out in the lead, and no wonder! With a coach like Barbara Hackett they couldn't lose. A familiar sound comes to our ears as the droning voice of the dispatcher announces the near departure of flight 506 for San Francisco. LaGuardia Field is a flood of light and there goes Norma Jean King. Where is she going? Wait, here comes the pilot we'll ask him, maybe he knows. Captain can you tell . . . Well, well, Jack old boy it's good to see you. The captain knew. Jack Younts will fly Norma to Frisco and there she will take another plane to China. America is sending another missionary to the Orient. Greensboro is the scene of the next stop. Let's visit a few stores. We enter Meyers and who is the capable manager there of the street floor? There she goes, Martha iPeggyD Taylor. Peggy tells us that Betty Tucker is Per- sonnel Director of Woolworths. There goes Frances Allred up the street. After taking a business course at W. C. she is now helping Jefferson Standard keep their records straight. Well, there goes Lucille and Phyllis home with the groceries. Both girls have pretty homes where they are happy with their husbands. Look, here comes the Navy. Two salutes are rated. Captains Cletus Surratt and James Frye look good in their blue uniforms. Sparkie was in the insurance business before he joined the Navy and James gave up a berth with the Patriots to go to sea. As we enter the halls of High Point Memorial Hospital who do we see? Why, Bobbie Jean Lewis and Peggy Ann Kirkpatrick. They seem to be proud of the caps which they have iust received. Who is this coming down the hall? Ann Fields, what are you doing here? O yes, Bobbie is here. Ann is still in college and tells us that she has not made up her mind as to what she will do. Here is a scene that will interest you . . . a country side, a winding road, a lovely entrance with a big sign that says Old Mill Farm . Who do you think is the proprietor? There he stands on the porch of his large home, none other than Leon Reynolds. The road winds on for iust a few miles. Who is that tall man in the field with the workers? O yes, James Thompson is showing his workers iust what he wants them to do, and James is the man who can do it, too. He has had much experience in farming. His crops show that he is a good farmer. Although happily married, Jean Pugh and Dorothy Hendrix are valuable personnel at Woolworths. Jean handles the money matters and Dot is assisting the manager. Betty Jane Kirkman is still free. There she goes, iust leaving the Burlington Mill's Office. See that new Buick she is driving. Well, she should be able to ride in style for she has gone all the way to the top . . . Office Manager. Can that be Toronto, Canada? lt is. Why has the scene stopped at this house? Florence Fields decided to enter politics and married a diplomat who is now living in Canada and here is where they live. Gamble Sales and Service, Danville, Virginia. Let's follow James home. He seems to have had a busy day at the garage. He has reached the front walk . . . one, two, three, four, five, yes five cute little red heads running to meet him. We know he'll be busy for a while at least. Those kids will make things lively for pop. A Sunday scene in Atlanta, Georgia, shows Dorothy Lowe as organizing secretary for the United Church Group. The smoothness of operations shows her efficiency. You may be wondering where the other two members of the class are. Well, I'm Peggy Collins and you see what I'm doing and Howard Causey is the chief engineer who has controlled the program and television scenes as picked up for you by our roving stations.

The score was tied at the end of the regular time and the deciding point came late in the extra period. One point meant victory. Garland Fogleman, James Thompson, and Cletus Surratt, seniors, wore the black and gold of Pleasant Garden in their farewell game the night of February 24th. The game was lost by only three points. Allen Jay was scared. Cletus Surratt ended the season in fifth place in the county for number of points made during play.
