Naturally we were laughed at,landed up in wrong places and had our teachers thinking we were ‘‘just awful.”’ We elected as class officers- Bill Brown, President; Helen Honeycutt, Vice President; Shirley Fesperman, Secretary and Frances Lookabill, Treasurer. A year later we again entered school, this time as Sophomores with only 61 on roll. Now being a year older, we looked with pity upon the poor freshman. Our sponsors were Mr. Bill Poole and Mr. William Snider. Our class officers were Andrew Brown, President; Guy Puckett, Vice-President; Helen Honeycutt, Secretary; Peggy Jo Lipe, Treasurer. After what seemed a very short vacation to all of us we again entered high school to be en- rolled as Juniors. How happy we were to be looking forward to such a delightful year. A few of our classmates dropped by the wayside, leaving us with only 50 Juniors, Our class sponsors were Mrs. John Rink, Miss Ruth Wagner and Mrs. J.G. Puckett. Our play, ‘‘Fraidy Cat,’’ un- der the direction of Mrs. John Rink, was termed a success, The following spring of 1954 the Junior-Senior Banquet climaxed many hours of hard work and patience under the guidance of Miss Ruth Wagner. It was held in our new school cafeteria. We attempted to create a Mexican atmosphere. Six outstanding girls were chosen to be Junior Marshals. They were Jeanne Frick, Frances Lookabill, Edna Owens, Janet File, Shirley Fesperman, and Norma Beaver. As our Junior year came to a close we looked with envy at the seats in chapel which we would soon occupy and call our own, Now in the year of 1955 we have come back to the scene for the last year. Several more students dropping by the way reduced our number to 47, Our boys,Frank Surratt,Fred Setzer, Ken Vanhoy, Mickey Capel and Bob Hopkins, can be given a loud cheer for the fine display of sportsmanship they displayed at all our football games this year. We shall expect much from Nancy Holshouser, Mary Va. Holshouser and Helen Honeycutt to carry us to a victorious year in basketball. All of us look forward eagerly to our Senior activities for this coming year. Many of us will start again as college freshman in the fall of 1955, Our class officers and sponsors who will help make this year a big one are Edna Owens, President; Shirley Fesperman, Vice-President; Frances Lookabill, Secretary; and Helen Honey- cutt, Treasurer; Mrs. J.G,. Puckett; Miss Ruth Wagner and Mrs. Jesse Ballew. We wish to thank all of you who have helped make it possible for us to advance so far. May we amount to something, not merely exist in life. Historian Norma Beaver Class Poem Graduation! What does it mean-- That work is o’er, a battle won? Or does it mean that we have seen A worthy life begun? Those tireless hours of study past End not life’s preparation. They made us strong and true at last, That we might build a nation. Lessons read, assignments done, Have made our knowledge broader. As games and contests, lost and won Have molded life and character, Now we leave these portals in the mist. In future hours may the echo ring, ‘‘In life, not merely to exist, But to amount to something.”’ Mary Wise x e wk eo . i “4 3 WA FEEL LER EL SBR ES i Senior Class Officers Treasurer Helen Honeycutt President Edna Owens Vice President Frances Lookabill Secretary Shirley Fesperman r™ se e Superlatives MOS ie lN ia by le lanky Gul Or Avia Mary Wise Fred Setzer MOST ATHLETIC Nancy Holshouser Kenneth Vanhoy Superlatives A A 1) oO AC 4 4 [I n hy) Q Frances Lookabill Franklin Surratt ih a SE ie NS MOST PERSONALITY Shirley Fesperman Gernal Lowman Superlatives Guy Puckett ok: eo Do A, 05 A, Hs B Oo Sa 0 - 4 O Q = i W fx] a c ay) wn VU of Q «x = 28) 7 = © aaj ts S Superlatives MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED Jeanne Frick Oscar Bost id NEATEST Sarah Kluttz Mickey Capel Senlors 955 Advisors MRS.

MOOSE and SON gm Jn Memoriam This book is dedicated to Henry Irving Eagle, son of Mr. and Mrs. D. L. Eagle, of the Liberty Community, who was accidently killed on October 9, 1954. Irving, a happy friendly boy, was a member of the freshman class, coming to Rockwell from Morgan School. He was an outstanding mem- ber of his class and community. Although he had not been with us long, his many friends miss Irving, and his memory lingers with them. 2 iL AA LALLA so caareacmmcummnile HUTIVITIt Franklin Surratt Janice Vanhoy Fred Setzer Libby Bost Norma Beaver Nancy Holshouser Annual Staff Mary Virginia Holshouser Mrs. Laughridge Editor Advisor = = D “a S h Hti-£k tor Nancy Holshouser Edi BANK OF ROCKWELL Future Farmers Of America Oscar Bost Mr. Conry President Advisor merica Janice Vanhoy Miss Wagner President Advisor BRADY LUMBER CO.
