M emories SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the fall of 1939 fifty-nine little boys and girls started on the road of education with Miss Inez Ayres as their first advisor. The students moved to the new grade building immediately after Christmas of their second year. The yeers passed rapidly and before long the little cherube reached the eighth grade. That year they elected class officers and selected their class 'fiowers, colors, and motto. They journeyed to Terre Haute and Indianapolis, too. To finance these trips, the group staged paper drives and a resale. In l9h7 thirty eight freshmen entered high school. This class of '51, with Carl Seybold as president and Mr. Sam McClellan, the sponsor, had a successful year. Several members participated in the algebra, Latin, and music contests. In their sophomore year Mr. Dale Williams was their sponsor. Again some took part in the various contests and many joined the Y-Teene and Hi-Y Clubs. The project for that year was a concession stand and skit at the Halloween Festival. The preceeding years had passed swiftly but none went so quickly as the junior year. The class was very industrious making money for the big event of the yeer--the Junior-Senior Prom, which was held for the first time in the gymnasium. Here much time was spent making a beautiful ballroom. Six members of the class were taken into the National Honor Society and a few entered the English and music contests. Mr. WEndell Adams was the capable sponsor that year. Finally the big year has arrived and the seniors have been busy ordering name cards, invitations,.pictures, and caps and gowns. The class roll numbers only thirty-four now. or this group over half have been continuously on the road of education here in Rockville. Those students are: Leon Bowman, Marilyn Braner, Joan Britten, Carleton Butler, Helen Forcner, Jessie Fultz, and Barbara Hamilton, Anne Hardesty, Ray Barney, Lois Hartman, Bob Jessup, Nance Lee, Beverly Lewis, Pat Navel, Bill Pinegar, Pat Riddle, and Ramona Smiley. Commencement is almost at hand and, although they regret leaving R.H.S., the members of the class of '51 are now ready to go out into the world as useful citizens, the years of school becoming fond memories. -14-
