We believe in Reidsville High School as an institu- tion of high scholastic and moral standards established for the purpose of enriching our lives with better education and physical training. Many of us will go on to more ad- vanced citadels of learning, but we shall retain our love and respect for this institution. II. We believe in the integrity of the faculty. We be- lieve in the knowledge and principles which our teachers have sagely and forcefully imparted to us. III. We believe in our student government as an or- ganization which teaches democracy by practice. IV. We believe in Reidsville, our own beloved city, and in its ever forward progress in the modern world. V. We believe in our class motto, I shall be like that tree, I shall die at the top. We believe that, in years to come, it will be an incentive to us to overcome seemingly insurmountable difficulties and to push on to greater achievements. VI. We believe in ourselves, who have great poten- tialities and a great future ahead of us if we take the opportunities that are ours.

It ' s oh! so hard to leave you; Dear Juniors, one and all, But don ' t forget, we love you come what may. Together we have studied, Together we have played, And when life ' s troubles burdened us, We never were dismayed. And now the journey ' s ended, And we must say good-bye, The time will come when we will meet again. By Eddie Baker CLASS SDNG IH!

Escort Page Fifty -three CLASS HISTDRY In the quaint little town of Reidsville, in the year of our Lord nineteeen hundred and thirty- five, the doors of education were flung open, and before they could be closed again, a contingent of babbling boys and girls slipped through. These boys and girls have ascended twelve rungs of the ladder known as education, and are now presented to the world at large as the graduating class of Reidsville High School for the year nineteen hundred and forty-seven. At our r espective alrna maters. North End, South End, Franklin Street, and Lawsonville Avenue schools, we spent our first years in joyous seclusion. We were content to let our elder school chums steal the show at that time, as we all looked forward to the years when we would get in the big time. At long last, we were united into one big fraternity at Franklin Street. Here we all began to work and plan for our big jump across the street into high school. Several members of our class took part in the various programs of athletics while others joined the band and took part in other organizations and activities. Finally, after long years of waiting, came the day when we walked up the hallowed steps of Reidsville High School for the first time. At first we were a little confused and awed by the methodical way in which the program was carried on. It didn ' t take us long to catch the swing, and soon we were right in the thick of things. We elected as our leaders: Anne Moore, president; Jane Paschall, vice-president; Elaine Saunders, secretary; Iris Corum, treasurer; we were well satisfied with their services. We selected as our flower, magnolia; our colors, blue and white, and our motto, I shall be like that tree, I shall die at the top. Our budding class was represented in the various activities around school. Nine months flew by and before we knew it, we had taken another step up the ladder and emerged as Sophomores. Our officers this year were Irwin Clark, president; Jimmy Rogers, vice- president; Anne Rudd, secretary; James Everette, treasurer. More and more of our class bgean to participate in the functions of school life. Irviu Richardson became secretary of the Student Organiza- tion. Jimmy Rogers made the All-State football team. Eddie Baker starred in the patriotic musical Doodle Dandy of the U. S. A. One more step and we found ourselves Juniors. Our officers were Royal DeLapp, president; Anne Moore, vice-president: Virginia Strader, secretary; Bill Bray, treasurer. Anne Dell McMichael served as chief marshal. Our Junior-Senior banquet, the daisy chain, and May Day were outstanding events of the year. Perhaps the greatest happening during the year was the ending of the war. it had been hard for us to carry on with our school work while our fathers, our brothers, and our sweethearts were fighting and dying for tins great country of ours. But as our teachers will tell you, we were a determined group, and we decided that our education was important to the future of America, so we buried the fear of war deep in our hearts and set to work to make a success of our lives. Nineteen hundred and forty-six! The largest group of Seniors in the entire history of Reids- ville High School appeared on that third day of September. One hundred twenty Seniors there were. We were especially proud of our war veterans who had come back to complete their education. These boys really worked as they realized the necessity of an education after those years of fighting. We elected Thomas Moore, president; Irwin Clark, vice-president; La Verne Turner, secretary; Elfred Gillespie, treasurer. Carlton Craddock gained the highest honor, president of the Student Organization. LaVerne Turner and Alma Kimbro shared the honors of editor and associate editor of Renocahi. Of course, we were proud of our football boys captained by Mike DeLapp and Jimmy Rogers. Jimmy, for the third consecutive year, became All-State and honorary co-captain. Elbert Peters and Ray Cantrell led our basketball stars. Having had many of our classmates participate in the May Day festivals, we were eager to choose our queen, Mai gie Ferguson. Two of our classmates have passed on to a bigger and better world. Henry Arthur died in 1944, and Robert Talley, in 1946. These boys will never be forgotten by the Seniors of 1947. We shall soon say good-bye lo our teachers and friends, but we will never forget the happy days we have spent here. We will enter the world realizing that we have a great task before us, but we are confident that when we complete this task, we can look back on a life rich with success and filled with contentment for a job we ' d done. How do we know that we will make a success of our lives — because we have that great promise from God ' s word that states: And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that briugeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever lie doeth shall prosper. With this promise in our hearts, we will strive to uphold the prestige of our school, our community, and our country.

Page Fifty -six Q : — Page Fifty-seven PROPHECY It is Christmas Eve, December 24, 1957. The whole Senior Class of 1947 has turned out for its reunion at the newly erected Community Foundation. As I walk up the steps, onto the wide porch, and stop at the door, there comes to my ears the sound of an orchestra playing a lilting tune which I recognize as Jingle Bells. Excitement stirs within me as I realize that this is the music of Rickard Clark and his Hubba- Huhba Hep Cats. Eddie Baker is Rickard ' s pianist, and Leonard Jones, who is nationally known as the second Harry James, is the trumpet soloist of the orchestra. Inside, the first one in the receiving line is our own mayor, Carlton Craddock, who has certainly made a name for himself. Next to him are Elmo Talley and Thomas Moore, still flirting with all the girls, as usual, and Elfred Gillespie, who is a very prominent doctor here. As my eyes move about the room they linger on some of the Seniors of the Class of 1947. Over in a corner Ray Cantrell and Mert Throckmorton are in one of their deep conversations. Who is that joining them? Why, it is none other than Ann Moore, our lady dentist, and Jimmy Rogers, the sensational new singer. At one end of the room before the big open fire are William Pettigrew and that stunning model, Peggy Mur- rell, who is wearing a gorgeous white dress fashioned by Betty Jean Barker, the famous clothes designer. Wonder what they ' re saying that must be said in such low tones! Out on the dance floor Wop Brooks has Betty Gray Gooch engaged in one of those tricky dance routines they displayed so well at R. H. S. There is Elbert Peters, Carolina ' s famous football coach, gliding along with Eleanor Friddle. who, incidentally, is married to one of Carolina ' s football heroes. The couplo next to them is Harold Mc- Collum, who is a surgeon at Penn Memorial, and Ramona Garrison, chief cover girl for Redbook. Someone is coming up to them and it is Jack Burton who is cutting in on Harold. Serving over at the punch bowl is Betty Page Holderby, who is secretary to Richard Smith, now a New York broker. Mable Wilson, Eloise Troxler, and Elsie Marie Jef- fries, secretaries for prominent businessmen in Danville, and Ann Rudd, Reidsville ' s s ocial worker, are helping her. What is all that excitement at the door? Oh! It is the arrival of Charles Bray who has just finished at the semi- nary and Betty Jean Roberts, a laboratory technician at Duke. Blake Goodman, Thomas Mitchell, Reginald McKinney, Edwin McDonald, and Cecil Rand, mechanical engineers, are over in a corner talking to Eugene Brame, Joe Mc- Kinney, Maurice Apple, and Stephen Hamlet, who are also engineers. Stephen has just completed the supervision of a four-lane highway. Carolyn Gailey, the dietitian at R. H. S., and Barbara Collins, teacher of Home Economics there, are still the same inseparable and talkative pair. They are talking to Gaynelle Dyer who is Physical Education teacher at R. H. S. Look who just came in! Why, it ' s La Verne Turner, who is a nurse at Johns Hopkins and her boss, Dr. Irvin Richardson. They have stopped to speak to someone — and it is Dr. Dodson. Yes, Laura Marie is now a doctor at Bowman-Gray Hospital in Winston-Salem. The girl standing next to Laura Marie is Louise Blackburn, who is in charge of the nurses at Duke. Speaking of doctors and nurses, there seems to be quite ' a few here tonight. Lorene Pritchett and Blonnie Lou Carlisle, nurses at St. Leo ' s in Greensboro, are talking to two outstanding Seniors of the Class of 1947, Doris Teasley and Catherine Oliver, who are medical secretaries. Billy Williams and Booda Durham, two of Miss Woot- ton ' s frequent afternoon guests, are trying to see which can outtalk the other. It ' s quite a race but it looks like Billy is gaining since Booda has stopped long enough to gaze at the two good looking girls who just went by them. Why, it is Hazel Scott and Emma Jane Bailey. They are joining Carl Dickerson and Odel McCollum o ver by the punch bowl. Nancy Hill, who is the lady announcer with the sugar sweet voice on The Gum Drop Hour, is talking to Wesley Burton and Bob Smith about their new program which will begin New Year ' s Eve. Cora Haney, secretary to Richard Griffin, a producer at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, has just arrived, escorted by John Roberts, who is now making a musical picture in which he is the star. They said that they were flown here by Ed Hicks, who is a pilot for American Air Lines. Marie Cotton, an airplane hostess, is working for American Air Lines also. They flew Frances Childrey to Europe for her second concert tour there. Senator Buck Strader is here with as much argument as ever. This time he is arguing with Banks Doggett, our local lawyer. I see that the armed forces have completely taken over two stenographers for the evening. By the armed forces we mean George Kincaid, a naval lieutenant, and Clarence Byrd, an officer in the Marine Corps. The lucky stenog- raphers are Alma and Annie Kimbro, who are still identically dressed. Mildred Ann Somers, whose husband is a foreign cor- respondent, is gaily chattering with Temple Griffith. Could it be about that tall blond Temple was with last night? Virginia Strader and Rachel Crist, the inseparable two- some who now own a beauty shop here, are talking shop with their rivals, Mary Andrews, Pauline Trent, Bobbie Jean Faircloth, and Frankie Carter. The shop they ' re speaking of is spelled boys, I ' ll bet. Some of the unusuals from our Senior Class are Carlyle Butler, a forester, and Norman Pegram, our professional baseball player who is signed up with the Dodgers for next season. Coming in the room now and late again are Bob and David Hooper. Bob has just finished his new book, Bon Voyage, which is expected to be a best seller, as was his first book, The Butler is Calling. David is still looking for a girl with a million dollars. Playboy Marion Gilmore has singled out airplane hostess Margie Ferguson and has lured her out on the dance floor. As the orchestra starts playing the lights are dimmed and a spotlight is turned on the singer who is none other than Helen Morris, star of screen and radio. As she sings Night and Day the couples on the dance floor are almost still except for swaying with the music. After this stirring number the orchestra begins the dance music again. This time Mike DeLapp is trying a new step with Julia Ann Robinson, fashion designer for Vogue. Elaine Saunders, the Educational Director at W. C, and her secretary, Colleen Chapmon, are talking to David Young and Garland Barker, who own a construction company in Greensboro. It looks as if there is a teachers ' reunion beside the punch bowl. Lolita Saunders, Reidsville High ' s new- second- year Home Economics teacher, and Rachel Hopkins, who is a wonderful handler of the second grade over at Franklin Street, are talking to Edna Stanley, one of the English teachers at High Point College. Comic Carlton Haney is showing his newest tie to Roy Parks, who apparently isn ' t the least bit interested. He had much rather watch the food beside the punch bowl to see if there is a chance that he might get just one more helping. Bill Oliver and his Reidsville Review news staff have just arrived. Harry Ware, Bernice Dixon, John Draper, and Arnold Yeatts are Willie ' s associates. Beulah Jacobs, Evelyn Elliot, Sunshine Talley, Bernice Paschal, and Ruth Warf, typists for the city paper, are also here gathering bits of news that will be a big feature in tomorrow ' s paper. Jim Hooper, the city auditor, and his secretary, Mar- garet Schoolfield, are having a hot argument about some- thing. Could it be about Jim ' s good looking new stenog- rapher, Iris Corum? Jane Paschal, the owner of the new gift and stationery shop, is talking to Jeannine Cooke and Mary Carver, who operate the Madamoiselle Beauty Shop on the floor above Jane ' s shop. Jane ' s stenographers, Juanita Warf and Col- leen Chrismon, are joining them. Bill Bray, a big shot at the A. T. Company, has lured Bache Pritchett, one of North Carolina ' s most famous to- bacco buyers, over to the punch bowl. Just ahead of them is Ann Dell McMiachel, who has been doing statistical work in France, and her good looking French husband who is an actor. He has been offered a ten-year contract with Twentieth Century Studios in Hollywood. , Jane Hopkins, who is the singer for Rickard ' s orchestra, has just stepped up to the platform as the orchestra plays the opening bars of White Christmas. With this lovely tune still ringing in my ears, I leave this merry crowd to their celebrating and enter into the dark uncertain clouds of the future, not to return until another ten years have passed by and the remaining few of the class of ' 47 shall meet again.

We find a vast accumulation of knowledge stored away in the minds of the Class of 1947 : Physics is a subject many of us took while we were in the tenth grade; our teacher left soon thereafter! Latin is a dead language, and w e were nearly dead, too, after those two long years of it. Our spelling ability is neither here nor there; we cannot spell many more words than these. As for literature, why we like all the comic books. Our knowledge of arithmetic is confined strictly to telephone numbers. We know that we should like French, but English is the language that was built for us. We really think our penmanship is superb, but our teachers always complain that we leave our papers in the chicken coop. In English we were told that slang is permissible only if it adds force . . . well, we have plenty of force. Geography is the study of foreign places, but Fifteen Trees is far enough for us. As for geometry, we have certainly learned to appreciate good figures. Algebra taught us the value of x, especially for our letters. The study of history impressed on us the need for dates. With these last few words, let us bid farewell to those we have loved dearly for the past four years; those to whom we talked at lunch time; those who always snuggled close to us when it was cold; those who glared at us even when we had prepared our lessons; those . . . those cats and dogs that hang around the school. Catherine Oliver Elfred Gillespie Statisticians IN THAT WORLD DF TOMORROW We stand at the peak of our high school career, With our minds cluttered with memories so dear. The things so unimportant a few years ago Now hold a prominent place as you may know. We love teachers that gave us our intellect, And the classmates whom we greatly respect. Truly these, years are the stepping stones To the future still to us unkn own. We shall not work as one group after today. But each must go in his own way To face this world of chaos and turmoil, Which will only be straightened by vigor and toil. But we shall prosper in that world of tomorrow, Through someone ' s failure which led to sorrow, By placing our lives in the faithful hands Of the One who leads us and understands.
