Rockwell, North Carolina To the Seniors: Because your parents and friends have sacrificed and labored to qive you advantages unknown to them, you have enjoyed rnany superior educational opportunities during your school years. ln turn you carry, as you leave, an obligation to see that these same advantaqes are preserved and intensified for those who follow you. As the leaders of tomorrow, you are taking your place in an America that stands at the crossroads, with the choice lyinq between peace and lifeAor war and death. Upon you, the seniors of America, rests the responsibility of preserving peace, prosperity, and plenty for :genera- tions to come. You can do no greater service to humanity than to work for a better understanding between ourselves and the nations of the world. G. RAY BRQWN, Principal. Fwd DMGEI? fi, ,ff FACULTY X MRS.

Poir There are those who need no monu- ments after their passinq, because their years of service to their fellowmen stand as iivina reminders to those whom they have known. Such a man was Mr. Homer G. Foil-farmer, iarin committee- rnan, business man and member of the scriool hoard. The community as a whole has suffered a severe loss in his aoira, but is fortunate indeed to have had such a valuable friend and citizen. IN MEMORIAM 1929 - 1943 Billy Misenheimer Beaver, a member of the class of 1947. When the class of l947 were ninth qraders Billy Beaver met death accidentally. Students and faculty alike have mourned his passing. His cheeriut disposition, his hiqh ideals, his spirit of cooperation and his winning person- ality won for him a place in the hearts and memories of his classmates.

The old saying- green freshmen -was surely true of us. As someone put it, We needed to be salted down. During the first week of school we wandered around like lost sheep expecting anything to befall us, but to our relief and joy, nothing hap- pened. After the excitement of the first few days subsided, we settled down to do some real work. tlust ask the teachers about this. They know how much we work-especially at school!!l Each of us during our Freshman year had two purposes in mind- to keep from getting lost, and, above all, to keep out of the way of the high and mighty upperclassmen-not to mention the principal and fac- ulty members! After two happy weeks of Christmas holidays, we returned to school and began working harder than ever, hoping to complete our Freshman year with honor. During our Freshman year the twelfth grade Clucky us? was added, and truthfully speaking, I must say we weren't too happy over this added attraction. Since we knew there was nothing we could do about it, we went on studying and working harder than ever to achieve as much as we could. As the year drew to a close, we left the green stage, put our books aside, and welcomed tand what a welcomell the vacation with cheers of joy. The following tall we began our Sophomore year. We noticed that some of our fellow students were dropping out along the way, but we Cthe follow-throughs J weren't discouraged, We continued on the road to success, and at the end of the year were proud to say that we were climbing higher up the ladder of our high school education. During our Sophomore year the Student Council was organized. This was something new for the Rockwell kids, and slightly feared by all, but we found that it didn't bother us too much!! With a total of fifty-three Sophomores quite a few romances budded, but l'm sure there's no need for me to list them here. No more outstanding events marked our Sophomore year, except that a few of our girls looked forward to being waitresses at the Iunior- Senior Banquet as the end of the year drew near. Thus, our Sophomore year came to a close with many cherished and pleasant memories in the minds of most of us. ln the fall of '44 Cafter a happy vacationl, we trooped back to school and entered as a group of Iolly Iuniorsl This was a year that was most outstanding to each and every one of us, and one that will never be forgotten. Forty-one luniors started this new and outstanding year with the determination to work just a little bit harder-but not too hard! We all enjoyed the wonderful socials we had that year, not to mention those good times we had in Mrs. Bost's Biology Class disecting insects-just before lunch too! But it wasn't so bad, was it, Seniors? After all we were Tolly luniors and we lived up to it! One of the most important happenings of our lunior year, and one that will never be forgotten, was our Iunior-Senior Banquet. Planning this banquet was really a job, and one that kept most of us busy for quite a while. Our work was not in vain, for l think l can honestly say that this banquet, one of the best banquets that Rockwell l-ligh has had for a number of years, was a wonderful success. l don't think any of us will ever forget those jokes that were told on both luniors and Seniors that night-not to mention those told on the Faculty!! l can still see those blushing faces of some of the teachers. The other outstanding event of the evening was the impersonations of the teachers. Honestly! That was almost as humorous as Abbot and Costello themselves. Another great event that must go down in the history of our Senior Class of '47 was our Iunior Play, Deacon Dubbs, which was directed by Mrs. Bost. We were all proud that our lunior Play was such a suc- cess, and we looked forward to the oncoming year, hoping that we might have the chance of giving another play which would be as much a success as was Deacon Dubbsf' Realizing that our third year was coming to a close, we sorrowfully bade the Seniors farewell, and prepared to step into their empty paths, and to fill their vacant seats at the front of the auditorium, When we returned to dear old Rockwell High, in the fall of '45, we were glad that only a few of our classmates had dropped out. We looked forward to 6th period each day, not only because it was the last period of the day, but also because it was Mrs. Miller's English Class. We really had fun during that period! Not one of us shall ever forget those wonderful stories that were told us by Mrs. Miller, who was a wizard at story telling. Of course we had English, but enough time was found for a story almost every day. Another thing for which we should be thankful to Mrs. Miller was our Senior Play- Silas Smidge From Turnip Ridge -a play that shall never be forgotten by a single Senior. We all enjoyed, too, the humorous Slang Program, which was also under her direction. Don't think we didn't work in Mrs. Miller's class, because we certainly didll Seniors, remember those dear Short Stories we had to write, not to mention those ten-minute Citizenship Essays wc- were required to write. Oh! What a pain in the neck that was! Since there was no graduating class, a Little Abner-Daisy Mae party was given to us by the Iuniors instead of a banquet. Prizes were awarded for the best dressed Daisy Mae and Little Abner. The result- ing costumes were, to say the least, surprising. All of us had a wonder- tul time at this party-just as much or more, as we would have had at a banquet. When we returned as lordly Seniors to begin our last year's ven- ture, only 39 reassembled. We were all proud that we had reached the final lap of our school journey. We realized after only a few weeks of school that being a Senior was not so easy: therefore, we immediately settled down to do some hard work, and began to think seriously ot graduation. The class, under the leadership of Mrs. Miller and later Mr. Hollis, elected the following officers to guide us through this all-important year: president, Ray Peelerp vice-president, Roy Wyatt: secretary, Virginia Hoffner, and treasurer, R. I. Basinger. From our class came many star athletes-Mary Lee, lames Lee, Don, Melvin, R. I., and Zummie-the kind that could take defeat stand- ing up and with a smile! Two of the most important events of our Senior year were the forming of the Beta Club, in which membership is considered a high honor, and the organization of the other clubs-Dancing, Dramatics, Marriage, Monogram, Athletics, Creative Shop, and Home Economics. These clubs, which met every two weeks, played an important part in the school, and were looked forward to from one meeting to the next by everyone. Our history is not complete without the mention of our two Senior socials, one at the home of Karr Barrier, and the other at the gymna- sium. The grateful appreciation of the entire class goes to Mr. and Mrs. Barrier for their hospitality, Our days at Rockwell High are almost over, and as we leave, we would like to express our devotion and gratitude to all of you who have helped make it possible for us to graduate. As we stand facing tho future, our hope is that each individual in this class will be able to fit himself or herself into some place of service and usefulness in life. ln the years to come these pages will, we hope, keep alive memories of perhaps the happiest part of our lives.

Sides Admiral in the Navy Neola Rogers Missionary to China Bill Leonard Pastor ol Cold Hill Methodist Church Statistics for the Senior Class of 1947 Having the honor of Statistician of this great Senior Class l, CMary Lee Bostl set out to get facts that would be of interest not only to my classmates, but to the eagerly awaiting world. Our Senior Class this year is one of the greatest classes that ever walked the halls of dear old Rockwell High. incidentally, we were thought more of than any other Senior Class because they let us go for twelve years. Now to get on to the Statistics. The average weight of the class is 132 pounds. Iohnnie Sue Penninger's ninety pounds doesn't help to make the average rise much. The normal height of the class was found to be 5 feet and 7 inches. We have Ierre Puckett, who stands 6 feet one inch, to thank for this. lnquiring fruther, 1 found the average age to be 17. Of course, when you start asking girls their age, you'd better allow a little for it because you know no girl ever gets any older after she reaches 17. 43 per cent of all the Seniors do their studying, and don't ask, What study- ing? -through blue eyes, while 28 per cent are brown, and 10 per cent green. l guess that leaves those not accounted for here to have cat eyes. Of all the Seniors, 15 per cent have black hair, 54 per cent have brown hair, and 20 per cent blonde. There are no red heads in this class. The average size shoe was found to be a 7. Now we, the Seniors of forty-seven Do bid our friends goodbye, As our parting days draw ever closer And our future we must try. Many times we were discouraged And scarcely knew what to do. But we studied, oh, the harder, To be happy and get through. Resting by the radio, reading Life Magazine, this Senior Class had rather listen to the great band leader, Harry larnes, than any other, although Carr Morgan had rather listen to the Briarhoppers. The favorite radio program turned out to be nothing less than lt Pays To Be' lgnorantf' That's why we're so dumb, because we think it pays. The favorite pastime of the class, we found to be reading and hunting- l don't know to what kind of hunting they're referring, probably dear hunting. Hobbies ranged from dating to collecting women, while Mary Catherine Fesperman says she collects neckties. As its favorite sport, the class voted basketball. Investigating further, l find that the majority of the Seniors would rather sit in the Capitol Theatre and see Esther Williams and Van Iohnson than any other actress or actor. English was voted as the favorite subject, but Iohn Boger says his is Study Hall. R. I. Basinger spends his time on another subject, Girls. After thinking the situation over very seriously, the Seniors decided they had rather ride in a Buick than any other type of car. Clyde Merritt says his favorite car is anything that will run. ' Out of the 38 per cent of Seniors who believe in love at first sight 38 per cent of them are in love. Someone had better get on the ball or we're going to have a lot of old maids and bachelors in this class. Out of this class of 39 Seniors l found only two people who said they were definitely good-looking, so you see we have a very modest Senior Class. l found the favorite brand of lipstick of the class to be Pink Lightning, Ptevelon. Roy Wyatt says he has no favorite brand because he doesn't use it. Sensible boys!! The favorite dish of the class was voted as ice cream, while Karr Barrier, wolf of the Senior Class, says his favorite dish is red heads. The majority of the Seniors seem to want to continue their education at Catawba College. Now that we have struggled onward And have reached the promised land, We rejoice in gaining the victory Our graduation is at hand. We want to leave our thanks and love To classmates and teachers too, For the kindnesses they gave to us That helped us always to carry through. Let us serve as faithfully in our future As we did while going to school, And, as we seek new worlds to conquer, Measure our lives by the Golden Rule. Favorite sayings of the class are: Hubba! Hubba! Hubba!, Don't worry about it, That's tough and Doggonit. The class is divided about half and half on the political question, so I guess we'll cancel each other's vote. As we journey on to the future, in this age of atomic power, I hope this Senior Class of '47 will achieve so much in life that future generations can look back and say, The 1947 Senior Class of Rockwell High School has been a prosperous and successful class.

Second row: Ray Ketner, Manager, lack Stanback, Kenneth Kepley,,Dick Cooke, Gene Puckett, Phil Howell, Mr. Troutman, Coach. The boys' basketball team of Rockwell High is doing very nicely this year under the direction of Coach Benny Troutman. Last year at Marion, Coach Troutman's team won eighteen games without a defeat so he comes to Rockwell with a good record. The team is enjoying a very successful season up until this time, having won nine and lost four games. The losses being the best opposition the county could offer. The tearn's offense is built around the following: Forwards, Larry Taylor and Zuinmie Bowman, Center and Captain, Iarnes Lee Misenheimer, and Guards, R. I. Basinger and Don Lyerly. Melvin Arey is also a very good guard. The promising players on the team are Phil Howell, lack Stanback, Dick Cook, Kenneth Kepley and lean Puckett. All of these boys will be head from in the future. Opposition in the county this year has bea keen, with each team emerging stronger than usual. Even though the boys have lost three games in the Conference, they always have the fighting spirit and the desire to win. 'Ne wish to thank Mr. Brown for the time which he spent training us, when a coach could not be obtained. We all know that his training has helped to build up the basketball spirit at Rockwell High. Girls' Basketball Team I 1: ,, . H. ,. .,.. .,r,,,L I ,dk fk ., ...,,f ..,fg'.,,...e , V . f - T - K 9 ' T r First row: Lloyd Cornelius, Mary Lee Bost, Betty Rose Sides, Iackie Bost, Betty Lou Goodman, Celia Peeler, Fay Basinqer, Second row: Nancy Blackwelder, Dorothy I-Iolshouser, Betty Park, Nell Miller, Betty lean Eller, Grace Hoffner. Third row: Betty Yelton, Manager, Betty Miller, Frances Beaver, Helen Brown, June Bost, Peggy Holshouser, Mr. Troutman, Coach. The girls of Rockwell High School are currently enjoying one of the best years since the l942 team. The team is built around Mary Lee Bost, a sharp shooting forward, but she is not the only one to share in the point making. Nell Miller, a tall, dependable forward, is rapidly developing into a star. Fay Basinger, Celia Peeler and Betty Lou Goodman are others who round out the forwards. The defense is built around three of the best guards in the county. Iackie Bost, Captain of the team, leads the attack. The others are Betty Rose Sides and Nancy Blackwelder. Betty Eller is also a very good guard to have on reserve. All these can hold their own against the best competition the county can offer. The girls this year have a new coach, Mr. Benny Troutman. He has never coached a girls' team before, but is doing a wonderful job. The girls have lost one game in county competition, but still have a good chance of winning the County Champion- ship Trophy.
