Joyce Bell Flower Red Rose Colors Blue and White Motto “All for one, one for all” THE HEAVY VELVET CURTAINS BEGIN TO PART PRESENTING A VERY FAMILIAR SCENE AND 3 FAMILIAR FACES. WITH THE KIND ASSISTANCE OF MRS. MINNICK, THE CLASS ELECTS 1TS- OFFICERS, COLORS AND) MoTTO. JOYCE BELL IS CHOSEN PRESIDENT OF THIS NOISY GANG OF FRESHMEN. BLUE AND WHITE ARE THE SELECTED COLORS, AND MoTTO ALL FOR ONE, ONE FOR ALL 1S QUICKLY SUGGESTED AND APPROVED. SOME OF THE MORE BOISTEROUS FRESHMEN SUGGEST THE STINKWEED AS CLASS FLOWER, BUT THE BEAUTI-= FUL RED ROSE WINS THE DECISION. THE SCENE BEFORE ME BECOMES HAZY (THAT'S BECAUSE OF THE CHALK AND ERASER BATTLESI) AND THE FRESHMEN DAYS SLOWLY FADE FROM VIEW. THE CURTAIN OPENS ON ACT 2 REVEALING THE 29 HAPPY=GO=LUCKY SOPHOMORES STRUGGLING THROUGH ALGEBRA. JEAN BELL |S PRESIDENT THIS YEAR AND MRS. MAYBERRY |S THE HOME-ROOM TEACHER. AMONG THE MOST OUTSTANDING EVENTS OF THE YEAR ARE THE TRIPS TO WASHINGTON AND CHARLOTTESVILLE, AND A BEAUTIFUL MAY DAY PROGRAM. COMPLETING THE STUDY OF SHAKESPEARE'S JULIUS CAESAR , SOPHO= MORE DAYS SLOWLY DIM AWAY, LEAVING ONLY 2@ MORE MEMORABLE ACTS IN THE DRAMA. AS THE CURTAIN AGAIN RISES, WE GET A GLIMPSE OF JUNIOR LIFE, A YEAR WHICH WE'LL NEVER FORGET. GARNET MANLEY 1S CLASS PRESIDENT THIS YEAR, AND OUR HOME=ROOM TEACHER, MRS. MAYBERRY 1S LUCKY! SHE WAS PROMOTED AND SO ACCOMPANIES US IN OUR JUNIOR YEAR. QUTSTANDING HIGHLIGHTS OF THIS YEAR ARE THE FARM SHOW, THE FOOTBALL GAME AT CHARLOTTESVILLE, THE TRIP TO WASHINGTON, AND THE JUNIOR=SENIOR BANQUET AND PROM.
