He is the busi- ness manager of our annual this year. Boutwell, Paris Paris was on the starting line on our ball club this year. Hb was the senior reporter for the Kennel. He has a very pleasant personality that we all like. Bellah, Carroll Carroll has always been quite a joker. He loves to get into trouble then try to get out, but he hasn't been too successful in fooling the teachers. Combs, Joy Joy has been the assistant editor of the annual this year. She was the vice-president of the F. H. A., and a member of M-H club. She also won the sweetheart contest of the Chisolm Trail Round-up for the year of 1955.

A. in 1953 and pianist for two years. Reed, Winston Winston was president of his class, he was on the starting line up on the ball club for the past two years, and was voted the most popular ball player of this year. We don't know too much about Winston's love life, but we do know he is a swell guy. Rotramble, Victor Vick transferred from Nocona his junior year. He is quite an authority on hot rods, and was always con- servative with his franchise privileges. Salmon, Wilburn Wilburn was vice-president of his class and vice- president of h-H club this year. He has a very swell personality and we have all enjoyed knowing him. 1042682 Sterling, Patsy Pat was always in for fun and never missed a party She was president of her class in 1953. She was editgr of the annual until Christmas, when she decided to ex- change jobs and become a house wife. Tettleton, Thomas Thomas has been on the starting line up of the P. V. ball club for the past two years. He was sports reporter for the Bark and the Kennel his senior year. Tettleton, Wanda Wanda was the sports editor of the bark this year. She has been a member of the ball club for three years. She has also been song leader of F. H. A. for two years Townsend, Johnny John was transferred from Nocona his senior year. He has taken an active interest in basketball even though he has not played. He has served as referee for the Junior Ball Club. He has also helped secure the 'Bosters page for the annual. Walser, Dixie Dixie has been assistant editor for the Bark for this year and has been a faithful worker at her task. She has a nice personality. York, Norman Norman was a member of the ball club for four years and was on the starting line up two years. He was business manager of the boy's basketball club for 195h and 1955- This ends the history of the Senior Class of 1955-a class whose associations began twelve years ago, five of whom started together in the first grade. These were Paris Boutwell, Floyd Begley, Thomas Tettleton, Wanda Tettleton, and Deloris Hudson. Joy Combs joined the class the second year and Winston Reed and Pat Sterling the fifth. Dixie Walser became a member of the class during the eighth year. The remainning ones joined after they entered high school. 3 1 1043682 One PRAIRIE VALLEY SENIORS IN '65 Saturday in 'bS it occurred to me That old Prairie Valley I should like to see So I began at once preparations to make And soon on the road my journey I take I came upon a cottage, white and neat With four little girls clean and sweet When I looked around and began to ponder Whom did I see but their mother By her I was told that all around Wells were drilled and oil was found And the efficient driller you'll discern No other was than our A few miles farther to a place I came With acres of land, cattle and grain Gazing about to survey a new terrace one-, I saw at a glance the proud owner was ygfr, NW I QMS Next I drove south to a town of renown tv Where circulars ever where could be found A United States Senator was to make an address I soon discovered that it was At a filling station on main street A clever attendant I chanced to meet His face was smiling, not a trace of a scowl He turned out to be our own When I become hungry I looked around And The The The the best place to eat I soon found food was good, the place was ritzy manager was Bob, the owner guests, I observed, were dressed in late style As they waited for service, they chatted a while Most of the prattle I was unable to con far But I did learn the rodeo announcer was to be I turned on T.
