Where they may sink an- chor or make harbor, no one knows, but it is the wish of the staff that they may finally rest in the port where all memories grow richer and lovelier. lt is also the wish and prayer of the staff that the members of Rule's l94O graduating class may realize they are now beginning to write copy and make pictures for ci bigger annual than even Golden Memories. This annual will go to the printers only when we have completed the curriculum in the School of Life and received our diplomas from the eter- nal Principal- Our Heavenly Father. May the memories called to life by this book and the memories, the realities of which are yet to be experienced and recorded in that eternal an- nual be golden for us all. MISS ORA L. DOWELL MISS HELEN B GIBSON As someone said of a great statesman, First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen, so the Rule High School Seniors can say of their class sponsors, First in studies, first in fun, and first in the hearts of their pupils. They in their untiring interest and helpful guidance have won permanent places in the students' mem- ories. To show their appreciation to them, the Senior Class and staff dedicate this '40 edition of Golden Memories to Miss Ora L. Dowell and Miss Helen B. Gibson. IIIIIIIIHIIHN elczfu Sang By Kenneth Roby Together We, the Seniors, stand, Thinking of the days gone by. And hoping that our faithful band, Will never break the tie. Although our hearts are filled with sorrow, From the thought of leaving you. We will fight to face the future, And uphold our gold and blue. We've spent many years together, But the time to part is near. We're thankful for those who taught us, For standing by so dear. Our high school days are ending, We'll begin a life that's new. We must leave the place we'll always love, And to our friends adieu. CHORUS: FAREWELL dear friends and classmates tool FAREWELL to the gold and blue! We hope that you will be like us, And to our school be true. N A y JOHN S. HUMPHREYS x PHINEIPIH lHElllll LUCY BOURNE English, French, Public Speaking A. L. BROYLES Mathematics KENNETH S.

Our record has been spot- less. To the community at large we bequeath the influence we have had for the honorable and better things of life: Our interest in music, in local dramatics, in club organizations- all these have contributed to the cultured spirit and in all we have taken part and have done our share. To the junior class we bestow our richest treasures. Our senior dignity lbelieve us truly we have a large amountl, our superlative brilliancy, our good looks, our charming manners, our favors with the teachers, our splendid grades, above all our senior privileges lwhich we looked for but never foundi, and our triumphant exit as the most popular class this school has ever known os seenl--there are the rare treasures that we hand down to then on-coming senior class. Our bountiful estate of personal property we do hereby dispose of as follows: We, the senior class, leave to Miss Dowell, our advisor, friend, and companion, our deepest sympathy and profound respect. We leave to the faculty as a whole, our best wishes, our love and appreciation for what they have done for us during the four years, and hope they won't have as much trouble or as many heartaches over the ascending juniors as they did over the outgoing seniors. Dorothy Benson leaves her lively spirit to James French. Lester Hansard leaves his bashfulness to B. B. Bateman. Mary Will Bohanan leaves her little giggle to Willow Dean Lines. Lelia Caldwell leaves her neatness to Edith Human. Harold Holland leaves his typing speed to lda Cooper. Alberta Childress leaves her book knowledge to Miss Schafer. Mildred Compton wills her musical gifts to Stephen Smith. Music has charms to soothe the savage beast. Lester King leaves his gifts of gab to Louise Noe. Kenneth Roby leaves a stack of broken hearts behind him-You could pick up six basketfuls . Vera Cox leaves her letters received from Turkey to Mr. Sharp hoping he can entice more pupils to become interested in history. - J. R. Monday leaves his position as captain of the foot- ball team to John Ellenburg. Robert Manley leaves his position as president of the senior class of '40 to the one eligible for the office. Phillips Martin leaves his way with the women ' to Doyle Evans. Ray Mink leaves his reserved seat in the picture show by Mildred King to Jewel Love. Emma McKinney leaves her history book to Lucille Wilson if she will promise not to let Mr. Sharp see her use it. Clyde Newman leaves his notebook to anyone who can find it as it has been missing for some time. Cora Morris leaves her title as Miss Rule High to Martha Turbyville. Margaret Roth leaves her plump figure to Miss Gib- son. We bequeath to our principal, Mr. Humphreys, all the respect, reverence, and awe that we hold in him that he may distribute it among the on-coming juniors, sophomores, and freshmen so that they may conduct themselves in his presence as we did. To Miss Schorer we will the balance of our class treasury, to be used in buying a pair of rubber shoes for detective work. We feel she will be sure to need these in dealing with the classes that are to be our successors. Kathleen lngle leaves her scholastic ability to some lucky junior. The million dollar smile of Agnes Stair goes to W. C. Thornton. Ed Moyers leaves his athletic ability to Bill Foxx if he will improve his method of making love. Walter Williams leaves his ability as a great talker to anyone who wants to handshake the teachers next year. Paul Summers leaves his big feet to Mr. Crownover. Ruby Swaggerty leaves her dimples to Eula Mae Cox. Bernice Teffetteller leaves two inches of her height to Evelyn Byrd. Kyle Reed leaves his ability in winning essay contests to his sister, Margaret. Zelma Sharp wills her place as band sponsor to Juanita Harris. Edna Arnwine leaves her place as midget of the senior class to Pauline Kerr.

Othello Brakebill leaves her position as editor of Golden Memories to Mary Helen Gilbert. Earl Hodges leaves his role in the senior play to Howard Wright. To anyone who needs it Alvin Thornton leaves his bluff. Apply early to avoid the rush. We, the outgoing class of Rule High School, approve of this last will and testaments, and hereunto affix our names and seals, this, the sixteenth day of May, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty. Page Nineteen 61644 pfwpfzecy By Wandering along the narrow, rugged path close to the bank of the Tennessee River, and looking into the clear blue sky, I realized that I was tired, hungry, and thirsty. Having started out with no certain destination, and wandering until I became exhausted l could not go farther, l stumbled over a rock and found myself in a large, dark cave. Trying in the darkness to find my way out, I found a candle and hastily lighted it. What a surprise! Right before my eyes was a golden chest. I immediately prized off the old rusty lock and carefully lifted the lid. To my right lay jewels-bright and very tempting, I must say: but to my left lay on old stained scroll. l picked it up and as I unrolled it I read these words: At the bottom of this chest, unde' the jewels, is a crystal globe. Look into it long and the future of the Rule High graduating class of '40 will appear. After lifting aside many jewels and intricate gold carv- ings, l found the ball-a perfect sphere which cast a faint, phosphorescant glow. Holding it to my curious eyes, I trembled to see the future unroll like a moving picture. I saw Mr. and Mrs. James Frye, lMrs Frye, the former Kathleen lnglel happily married, residing at 3420 Vermont Boulevard. Their children were playing joyfully next dcor with Mr. and Mrs. John Blackstock's lMrs. Blackstcck, the former Cora Morris, Band Sponsor of '39 and '4Ol. The nurse in care of the children was Miss Viola Wise, still an old maid, On the corner of the block, Artance Farmer was a pro- prietor in the Farmer Delicatessen Shoppe. Across the street was a big dog and Cat Hospital operated by Drs. Earl Hodges, Clyde Newman, and Lennis Woggoner, who were assisted by nurses Pauline Wright and Velma Underwood-none married except Earl. Kyle Reed was manager of a local Walgreen Drug Store on the corner of Vermont Avenue and Schofield Boulevard. The beautician for the Make-Up Department was Louise Roach, John Willock and Ray Mink were operating The Shuck Theater. Leila Caldwell and Ruby Swaggerty were teachers at ,Rule with Principal Bob Manley. The Janitor, Ed Moyers, had just been laid off a week because he had worked too hard. Phillips Martin was City Manager of Knoxvilleg his secre- tary was Mary Elizabeth Massey. Mr. and Mrs. Adrian Puckett, lMrs. Puckett, the former Emma McKinneyl the leading society couple of Knoxville, had as their guests of honor at the Cherokee Club Miss Eleanor Blackburn, Miss Edna Wise, and Mr. Eugene Owenby. Roy Crippen and his wife had just returned from a world cruise. They visited Hawaii where they saw many of their old school friends. They visited Hawaii where they saw many of their old school friends. Robert Johnson has been digging for the last five years for a pot of gold hidden in the Norris Lake. The map was willed to Robert by the late Great League Baseball player, Harald Holland. Mrs. Bill Martin lthe former Dot Bensonl was Mr. Holland's private secretary. Bernice Teffeteller's father has announced the engage- ment of his daughter to Lester Hansard, a multi-millionaire. lt seems that was all of the class that has stayed in Knoxville.

Suddenly the ball in my hand became cloudy--the flow dimmed gradually until all light was gone and I realized the curtain hanging between the present and the future had been dropped. I was privileged to see no more. l looked for the chest just before the candle sputtered and went out but l saw that it was gone. Following a gleam that l spied l reached the fresh sunshine again. The crystal ball had become only a quartz stone in my hand. Had it ever been more? Perhaps I had only dreamed. Who knows? Glau of '40 J ' BY One bright day in September, l936, we the senior class of '40, entered Rule School for the first time. Our high school career lay before us like an open book. We spent most of the first year getting acquainted. Nothing of unusual interest happened during this year but when the end of the term came we hated to part, even though three months. September, i937 found us back ot Rule. in the auditorium we were token to Miss Elsie Moe Peters, our home group teachers. it was for only After gathering Banks and Miss On arrival we found a few of our number missing, but most of our class- mates were bock. The year slipped by too quickly and we regretfully went home for three more months' vacation. But there was joy in knowing that we would return in the foll. ln September, l938, we were eager to get to school be- cause it was to mean more' than just greeting old friends. Our first football team 'woilld carry the blue and gold banner on the gridron. In June our first graduating class would step out in the world. After meeting in the auditorium we were token to our new home group teachers, Mr. Sompley and Mr. Davis. We chose the following class officers. Mr. Sampley's group, President, Lester King, Vice-President, John Black- stock, Secretory ond Treasurer, Kathleen lngle, Reporter, Mildred Compton. Mr. Davis' group: President, Robert Mon- ley, Vice-President, Ross Roberts, Secretary, Agnes Stair, Treasurer, Alvin Thornton, Reporter, Ruby Swaggerty. The big event of our junior year was the senor class picnic at Tyson Park. This was o very enjoyable occasion for it set a new standard for other classes-that of o Junior- Senior social function to which each Senior class looks for- ward with much pleasure. The end of another year rolled around. Rule High was proud of her first graduating class of thirty-one members. The Baccalaureate Sermon was delivered by Rev. Louis Melcher. For Class night, o beautiful pageant entitled, Youth Marches On was presented. The following night, after an inspiring address by Dr. Charles C. Sherrod of State Teachers' College, the senior class received their diplomas, presented by Dr. H. E. Christenberry, Chairman of the Board of Education. Now they have stepped out into the world to take their places as worthy ond honorable citizens. ln September we were back in school for our senior year. Our home group teachers were Miss Dowell, Miss Gibson, and Mr. Coile. The big event of the fall term was a Halloween party on October 30 here at the school. Also last fall several of the boys of our class participated in sports which they enjoyed very much. In January we finally stepped into the complete role of seniors. We elected the following class officers: President, Robert Manleyi Vice-President, Kenneth Roby, Secretory, Barbara Fritts, Treasurer, Edna Arnwine, Social Chairman, Alberta Childress. On February ll, we had o Valentine party to which we invited lost yeor's graduates. April 26 we were the guests of the Junior class at the first Junior-Senior Banquet at Rule. The Junior class remem- bered the teachers, who had helped make the banquet a success, by giving them gifts. Gene Bullard was toastmaster. May 3 the senior class presented the play, Don't Eever Grow Up. The leading characters were: Beatrice Teffetteller, Bob Smith, Estelene Bateman, Kenneth Roby, Edna Arnwine, Paul Summers, and Walter Williams. On May I6 we had o chapel program. The following class documents were read by their authors, with the excep- tion of the prophecy which was written to be dromatized. Song-Kenneth Roby, Will-Barbara Fritts, Prophecy-Kath- leen lngle, Poem-Bob Smith, Creed-Earl Hodges, and His- tory-Velma Underwood. On May l7 came the gala event of the year, the long looked for senior banquet at the S. Cr. W. Cafeteria. lt was o beautiful sight to see the girls in their new evening dresses and the boys in their new suits. The program, consisting of music and readings, was enjoyed by everyone. Kenneth Raby made a good toastmaster. Moy 24 we had the senior outing ot Norris Lake. We not only enjoyed the beauty of the lake and its surrounding scenery in spring bue we had the thrill of being out on the lake in a cruiser. We left school after the fifth period and got back late that night. The end of our high school career is here. Although we hate to think of leaving Rule and our classmates we have a sincere joy in our hearts because we ore a little higher up the ladder of success. Our Baccalaureate Sermon was deliver- ed by Rev. Harry Cook in the auditorium of the school. Class night we presented a pageant entitled, A Southern Rosary . The following night we received our diplomas after an in- spiring address by Dr. John A. Thackston of the University of Tennessee. Now we step out in the world to take our places. May we be worthy, honorable citiens of whom Rule High can be proud. Moy we have a strong determination in our hearts to succeed but keep cheerful smiles on our faces because, as one of our poets tells us: Smile and you o friendship, Frown and you make o foe, Weep and you lose your laughter, - Lough and you cure your woe, Love for the joy of loving, Fight for o battle won, Live for the sake of living, Work for o tosk well done. SENIOR CLASS POEM WE CAN'T FORGET Our play is over. the curtain falls Upon our final act. When we are done, no beckoning calls Ring out to bring us back. Four years it has taken, to reach at last The climax of our play. Four acts in which the scenes has past Rapidly upon their way. As we take our bow and leave the stage, We leave with much regret: Knowing we're turning the final page On memories we can't forget. Of't times we've forgotten and had to be told, When perhaps we missed our cue- But the lessons taught under the Blue and Gold ' Only increased our love for you. As years roll on and we drift apart. The ideals will always seen nigh, Deeply embedded in all our hearts The ideals we've learned at Rule High. By Walter M. Williams. Ir. Page Twenty-one Bateman, B. B.
