A [a±eot± DAVID McKINNEY CAROLYN JONES (2Cai i 2Pos.ru After twelve years of work and laughter We are beginning something new— We leave P. G., our Alma Mater, And work to make our dreams come true. Teaching appeals to some of us, While nurses and lawyers others seek to be, And some must go over there” To fight for the right to be free. We at home must strive to help them Win that peace for which they fight. That is our prayer to God above And that He will guide our lives toward the right; That when in the world we take our places We may have achieved real peace. We and all the Senior Classes Of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty One. —Edna Jean Deloach. on a Gee Whiz! That’s what the shy Freshman Class of P. G. H. S. said as they first mounted the stairs of the high school building September morning back in 1947. We were an excited group of students, lost in this new world. Then we began to realize that we were new members of this little world; so, forgetting our shyness, we set about to make the upperclassmen know we had arrived. , The halls rang out our announcement, until from out of nowhere, unless from the unknown rooms, two stern, but friendly teachers appeared before us. They explained that because of the large number of students we would have to be divided. Thus, Mrs. Lambeth was assigned the responsibility of guiding the boys, and Mrs. Gray was the guardian angel of the girls through this first year of uncertainty. During classes they told us that in high school the grades are accustomed to selecting class officer s. The following members of the class were elected to serve: President—Annie Belle Kessler; Vice-President—Charles Weatherly; and Secretary-Treasurer— Jack Monnett. After several weeks of getting acquainted with the ways of high school students, we settled down to a year of hard work, varied only by a few class parties, and a successful effort of making Evelyn McClintock Harvest Queen at the Fall Festival. Nothing more of special importance happened; June rolled around, exams were completed, and we discovered that at the be¬ ginning of the next term we would be wise Sophomores. Entering into our second year of high school, we discovered that several members of the class had dropped out, or were attend¬ ing other schools, so we were now all together in home-room with Mrs. Gray, our teacher. The class officers were Douglas Curtis, Bobby McClintock, and Charles Weatherly. As we settled down to another year of study, we decided that as Sophomores we were more dignified and refused to be cast out of all the social affairs as we had been during our Freshman year. After much consideration, we decided to show our respect to the Seniors by giving them a Senior-Sophomore party, which had first been introduced to P. G. H. S. by the Sophomore Class of ’47. We reserved the Guilford Club House in April and the party went off with a bang! After this event we felt more appreciated by the Seniors. Then once again the Fall Festival was announced, and there was to be an Annual Queen elected. We decided not to let our honor of winning contests vanish, and setting to work, we achieved the crown for Frances Sides. Nothing more of historical interest took place, until, as the year ended, we were up-coming Juniors. Back in school in the Fall of 1949, we elected Regie Raper President, to lead us, the sophisticated Juniors, down the paths of righteousness. The other officers elected to serve were Burney Garner, Frances Sides, and Evelyn McClintock. From all evidence we had become more unruly during the past year for we now had a man, Mr. Hebron Coble, as home¬ room teacher. The Juniors must have been a headache to the members of the faculty that year, as we were more interested in the big social event, the Junior-Senior Banquet, than in our studies. There was also the class play, Could Be” to be presented in order to obtain money for the banquet. The play was very suc¬ cessful, and, we, as well as the teachers, breathed a sigh of relief when all plans had been completed. The Banquet was to be held April 21, at Starmount Forest Country Club, with all bills paid. Everything was splendid, and in future years, as those who attended it walk down memory lane, we’re sure that this event will linger with them. This was not all, however, that made up our busy year. Our class rings had been ordered and received and Barbara Rayle had been crowned Harvest Queen at the Fall Festival. Then as May brought with it graduation exercises, we were to show our appre¬ ciation to the Seniors by making them a daisy chain. The night of presentation proved to be an exciting one, but somehow we got through it without a fumble, thanks to the encouragement received from the friendly smiles of the Seniors. All were sad at the thought of losing our helpful upperclassmen, but few tears were shed as the diplomas were presented, for we, the future Seniors, were happy at the thought of taking their places. Then came the eventful September of 19 50 and we were at last dignified Seniors. But all too soon the years had slipped past and we found that we were fully unprepared to meet the many tasks that loomed along our Senior trail. The class officers elected to guide us through the final year were: Charles Bogle, Thomas Reitzel, Evelyn McClintock and Jack Parks. Under their guidance and our advisor, Mrs. Gray, we set bravely forth; headed for an unknown destiny; meeting the tasks as they came. The publication of the school paper and Annual, the presentation of the Class play, the choosing of invitations, and graduation preparations were the main factors standing before us and our journey’s end. Then came the Fall Festival and we proved our ability, for winning contests still lingered as Willomae Nixon achieved the Crown and kept the honor nestled in our classroom, as it had been the three previous years. After this came the Junior-Senior Banquet, which was quite different from the one given the year before, for now we were the honored ones and Gee! it was really great to be honored in this way. Also well-remembered was the Senior-Sophomore party and the many other special occasions. Faye Corsbie was chosen to receive the Civitan Award, a worthy citizen for this great honor. The year slipped by all too quickly and we now have come to an unknown and untraveled portion of our trail, the future. But in bidding farewell to dear old Pleasant Garden High School, we feel more secure and greatly rewarded for the preparation it has given us, so that we might face whatever may befall us along life’s way without faltering. Thus ends the history of our class, The Class of ’51 — May the memory of our brilliant careers, Live for many years to come. WILLOMAE NIXON, Historian jCait Will and dJestament We, the Senior Class of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-One of Pleasant Garden High School, in the Coun¬ ty of Guilford, State of North Carolina, being of sound mind and a strong body, having attained ample knowledge to graduate and take up the toil and hardships of life, do set pen to this document. Article I To the Faculty: To Mr. Ayers, we leave our deepest appreciation for his help and guidance during our hours of need. To our teachers, we leave many thanks for their leadership and kindness toward us. Article II To the buses and buildings we leave deep feeling for their treatment after the great care we took of them. Article III To the Undergraduates: To the Junior Class we leave the privilege of issuing the two great publications: the Spotlight and the Annual. To the Sophomores we leave the job of giving the Junior-Senior Banquet during their Junior year. To the Freshmen we leave our hopes that they will make it as far as we have and easier than we have. Individual Bequests: During our struggle through school we have acquired some priceless articles which we would like to bestow upon individual underclassmen. They are as follows: Lynn Horney leaves bus No. 16 to anyone crazy enough to drive it. Edna Jean DeLoach leaves her fondness for plane geometry to Hadley Hunt and hopes he will someday know what Mrs. Hockett is talking about. Willomae Nixon leaves her love for baseball and the handsome, unmarried players to Peggy Smith Lois Smith wills her height to Jim Garner. Alma Moore wills her job at Belk’s to Sarah Elizabeth Weaver during her Senior year. Sadie Causey wills to Betty Thompson her ability to stay awake in D. E. class. To Jeannette Fields, Clara Lou Fields wills her ability to get an office job. Thomas Watlington leaves his gift of gab to Mr. Dawson. Douglas Curtis bequeaths his sportsmanship to Robert Yow. Regie Raper leaves his gracefulness in basketball to J. D. Tilley. Evelyn McClintock leaves her big mistake of laughing on class to Doris Coble. Faye Corsbie leaves her drawing ability to Janet Hanner, hoping she will produce some good Spotlight” covers. Ramona Densmore leaves the habit of twisting her hair to Mrs. Gray and hopes she can correct the habit. Betty Lou Swaim wills her ability to win a prize at a Fiddlers’ Convention to Hal Younts. Burney Garner wills his dimples to his younger brother, A. C. Guy Ross leaves his well-groomed hair to Mr. Ayers. Charles Bogle wills the corny jokes that the late C. O. Tinsley left to him, and the few that he has collected, to the one and only Holman Flynn. Riley Clapp wills the race track (roads around P. G.) to Pvay Caudle. Hal Thompson wills his ability to get along with girls and school teachers to Sandy Monnett. Wesley Lewis wills his ability to study in agriculture to Dale Reynolds. Jack Parks leaves The Thing” to Mrs. Gray. Peggy Kirkman wills Mary Lou Satterfield her Southern accent. Kelly Fields leaves his geometry book to the class of ’53. To Libby Hunt, Patricia Fields leaves her divided Duke-Carolina spirit and hopes she will put the latter to better use in the future. Charles Weatherly wills his ability to consume large quantities of food at the cafeteria to his brother, Bob. Frances Armstrong wills her silly giggles to Louise Frye, hoping she can get rid of them. Bill Jones leaves his love for planes to Betty Brown. Georgiana Elliott wills her ability for getting other girls dates to Patsy Fogleman. Donald Hall leaves his desk in the library in the morning to George Taylor. Thomas Reitzel leaves his ability to write shorthand to anybody who wants to. Rosa Neelley wills her love for D. E. to Betty Thompson. Marie Venable leaves her basketball suit to June Vernon, hoping she can fi 11 it. And I, George Jackson, leave the Mighty Bus No 47 to Betty Faye Fields. We hereby appoint Mrs. Harold Gray, our class advisor, as sole executor of this, our last will and testa¬ ment. In witness whereof, we the Senior Class of 195 1 do set seal on this, the twenty-ninth day of May in the year of our Lord, Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-One.

Twenty years hence and what a vast change in the lives of the ’51 graduates of Pleasant Garden High! Now let me see—there is Tommy Watlington, a graduate of Georgia Tech. He now owns and operates the Watlington Aircraft Corporation located in Climax, North Carolina. Who is this next person I see? It’s Pat Fields. She married the football coach at Yale University and it looks like she is raising a football team of her own. There goes Bill Jones, who got a job at the Piper Corporation. He started at the bottom and has worked his way up to the position of vice-president. As you pass through the great metropolis of Greensboro you see giant skyscrapers made possible by the architectural genius of Regie Raper. Ramona Densmore, whose future was decided before graduation, is now busy keeping house for her hus¬ band and three boys. After graduation, George Jackson set out to become a great stunt pilot, and right now I see him com¬ ing out of an outside loop in his new Luscomb. Can this next place be Washington, D. C.? Now I see Georgiana Elliott, the first woman president of the United States. She has been very successful in thefield of politics. In spite of her smallness, Frances Armstrong has now become the most famous woman wrestler in the country. Lynn Horney, Kelly Fields, and Hal Thompson are the three most successful farmers in Guilford Coun¬ ty, as you can tell by their large homes and farms. Willomae Nixon, who was always fond of baseball, has done well for herself by becoming a scout for the Cleveland Indians and by marrying a Yankee player. Let’s look in on Doug Curtis. He has become the owner of the largest meat packing plant in North Carolina. Naturally, he needs an efficient secretary, and who else is it but the brilliant, red-headed Faye Corsbie. Alma Cooke, who married before graduation, is very happy in her beautiful home in New York City. Now I see a western scene. There’s Rosa Neelley and Peggy Kirkman. They went West and bought a cattle ranch. Later they struck oil and went out ofthe cattle business. From the Raper Building in Greensboro a radio show has just been broadcast. It was the Golden Voice” of Charles Bogle on that show of shows Winner Take All And Get It Out of Here. As we go on down the street who do we see but Evelyn McClintock. She is arriving at work late again. She is a secretary at Jefferson Standard Life Insurance Company. Donald Hall has just finished writing his newest book on Atomic Energy”, which promises to be an interesting one. This is the fifth one he has written. Now I see a basketball game in progress. I believe Western Kentucky is playing and who have they got for a center but Riley Clapp, who has grown to a height of six feet four inches. There is another radio program in progress. I see Clara Lou Lields, who has become a script writer on the mystery show Lights Out.” After he gained enough experience in the grocery business, Thomas Reitzel opened a large food store, and now his business has expanded to several other cities. Who is this fellow I see looking out into space with a giant telescope? It is none other than Guy Ross, the chief scientist at Palomar Observatory. During schooldays, some of the girls in our class worked at Belk’s, and it looks like it s paid off. Sadie Causey is now the personnel manager and Lois Smith is a bookkeeper. Wesley Lewis is the owner of the largest garage in Pleasant Garden. He got all his experience working on his own car and keeping it in running shape. After years of faithful service, Betty Lou Swaim now has an important job at Founder’s Furniture Co. Marie Venable was going to be a stock car driver, but got side-tracked into being a model. Look for her on the cover of any of the latest magazines. There’s Burney Garner still sleeping! He always liked to sleep late so he made a million dollars just so he could. Edna Jean DeLoach attended Auburn Institute in Alabama and has come back to Pleasant Garden to teach the second grade. She has the noisest class since the Seniors of ’51 were in school. Jack Parks has become the leader of a one-man band and he has his own television program. Do you believe that twenty years will make this all come true? Only time will tell! CHARLES T.
