Buzz! Buzz! The noise grew louder as thirty-four excited ‘‘bees’’ swarmed into their ‘‘hive,’’ the Freshman Room at Rustburg High School, on September 4, 1950. It didn’t take us long to stop ‘‘buzzing,’’ however, after Mr. William Thomas, our home room teacher, appeared and gave us our first instructions in high school discipline. We elected Estelle Leonard our class president. For our motto, we selected ‘Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You.’’ Our flower was the red rose, and our colors were blue and white. The highlights of the year were: several class hayrides and parties; May Day, with Connie Edelstein and Nancy Wheeler representing us in the May Court; the Farm Show; and, to us, just the pleasure of being in high school. In September, 1951, we ‘‘bees’’ again assembled at Rustburg High School after a very enjoyable vacation. Only this year we found ourselves one step nearer our goal--we were now Sophomores. Mr. Fred Garbee was our home room teacher this year. We elected Barbara Tanner our class president. Again, we spent a very joyous year, full of parties and gatherings, as well as work. Mary Ellen Droog and Estelle Leonard represented us in the May Court. There were F. F. A. and F., H. A. banquets which we all felt proud to have the privilege of attending. At last, our long-awaited vacation came, and once more we parted, realizing th at before too long we would be together again. In September, '52, we all rushed back into our ‘“‘hive’’ as real upperclassmen--‘‘so- phisticated’’ Juniors. We elected Gladys Long our class president. Again we were happy to have Mr. Garbee as our sponsor. Without a doubt, our most outstanding event of the year was entertaining the Seniors at a banquet and dance. Other highlights of the year were: our Junior Play, ‘‘Quit Your Kidding’’; getting our class rings; May Day; our Christmas and Valentine parties; and carrying the daisy chain for the Seniors. We were all glad when our vacation came, knowing that on our next return to our hive’’ we would at last be Seniors. September 7, 1953, found us happily humming at Rustburg High. Why not? We were now ‘‘dignified’’ Seniors! We were very happy to have as our sponsor, Mrs. Margaret Minnick. Joyce Waller was elected class president. To us, this has been the busiest of our school years. A few of the many’important events of the year were: the Senior Play; the Junior-Senior Entertainment; Senior Day; our parties given by our home room mothers; Class Night; and Commencement. Now the time has come for us ‘‘bees’’ to buzz along, each in his own direction; but we are hoping that many may be the times when we can all assemble again in our ‘‘hive”’ and relive the many golden memories of the days we've spent together at Rustburg High School. CLASS PROPHECY The day was rainy and dreary, and as my mind began to roam idly, memories began to return of my high school days}; memories which had not returned for many a long year. Still thinking of past experiences and happenings, I wandered to the attic and began looking through old books, some of which contained pictures and other school mementos. What are my old classmates doing now? Many hours, and even days, of search and research produced these facts, which to me are most interesting: Levay Lawrence--Wife of a Lieutenant-Commander. Now living in San Francisco. Mary Ellen Droog--A Major in the Women's Marines. Stationed in Hawaii. Addie Lee--Serving as first woman chaplain in the Waves. Barbara Tanner--Manager of one of those ‘‘Farmer’’ restaurants. Lenny Franklin--Running an old maids’ home on Fifth Avenue, N. Y. C. Janie Maxey--Head nurse at McGuire Hospital. Ethel Wright--Living on a ranch in Oklahoma with her husband and family. Joyce Waller--Living near Gravel Ridge with her hudband, who works at Vaughan Motor Company, and their red-haired twins. Rosalie Gear--Married and settled with that guy from D. and E. Nancy Burnett--Living in her dream house in Lynchburg with her husband and their three children. Gladys Long--Wife of a banker. They live in Brookneal. Delores Johnson--Nurse and bookkeeper for Dr. Michael Fennigan, a prominent phy- sician in Ireland. Patricia Taylor--Living on a farm near Concord with her husband and family. Connie Edelstein--On her honeymoon, in a rocket ship, headed for Mars. Patricia Booth--Now manager of Anderson's Piggly Wiggly after twelve years of faithful service. She is married to a famous doctor. Nancy Allcock--Married and living in Altavista. She is private secretary for the Parker Bulldozer Corporation. Gene Blankinship--Captain in the Marine Corps. He flies an F-86. Paul Mitchell--Still trying to catch that black cat. Buddy Steppe--Sinking Russian battleships with the U. S. Navy. Albert Mason--First baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals. Avery Goff--Serviny with the U.S. Army. He is a Lieutenant. The conclusion of my researchwork has helped put my mind at ease because it shows that, after all, each of us seemed to be fulfilling many of our high school dreams. LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the 1954 Senior Class of Rustburg High School, being of sound mind and disposing memory, do hereby make and publish this, our last will and testament; and do declare all others heretofore made null and void. Te itt. GUL. In General To everyone, we leave hopes and dreams of a new and improved high school. To the Junior Class, we leave the clock that the class of '53 left us, and ask that they take good care of it. The Faculty To Mr. Hodge, we leave a new set of office steps, because we feel that we have pretty well worn out the old ones. To Mrs. Minnick, we leave dreams of a perfect Senior Class, To Mrs. Martin, we leave a carton of chewing gum to distribute to her History IV Class. To Mrs. Hunter, we leave a volume of Shakespeare, which she ‘‘gen’ly’’ uses. To Mrs. Riegel, we leave a small bus in which to transport her Home Economics students from the new high school to her classes. To Mr. Waddell, we leave space in the lunch line so that he won’t have to wait until the last to be served every day. Special Bequests Mary Ellen Droog leaves Virginia Elliott her ability to keep a secret. Nancy Burnett leaves her ability to get a man on Old Forest Road to Joan Edelstein. Janie Mae Maxey leaves her tallness to Dale Talley. Lenny Franklin leaves her ability to keep her mouth shut at the right time to all Rustburg High ‘‘gossipers.’’ Gene Blankinship leaves Paul Wingfield his ‘‘happy-go-lucky’’ way. Delores Johnson just leaves. Patricia Taylor leaves to Elsie Neighbors her ability to get along with bus drivers. Ethel Wright wishes Maude Tweedy to follow her example and keep quiet in class. Barbara Tann-r leaves to Freddie Keesee the honorable pleasure of editing the 1954-1955 volume of ‘‘The Owl.”’ Avery Goff leaves his interest in the F. F. A. and its work to Louis Cowart. Rosalie Gear wishes to leave with Edith Coffer her secret on how to gain weight. Joyce Waller just leaves. Buddy Steppe leaves his great height to G. H. Coleman, feeling he really needs it. Albert Mason wishes Steve Thompson to have his quietness, knowing that he needs it so badly. Nancy Allcock leaves to Kay Bailey her ability to attract men on bulldozers, Patricia Booth wishes Barbara Tweedy to have her ability to be everywhere at once. Addie Lee leaves Ellen Tweedy all her ex-boy-friends. Paul Mitchell leaves Howard Tweedy his smile, hoping he will use it often. Gladys Long leaves her ability to dance well to Lucy Dalton. Connie Edelstein leaves Peggy Blankinship her ability to get out without an escort. Levay Lawrence leaves her best wishes to all. We hereby appoint Phyllis Wooldridge, class of '55, executor of this last will and testament, with full power and authority, having full confidence in her sound judgment. SENIOR SNAPSHOTS 1, What? A Bunny Hop and no boys? 2. Sleepy time, gals! 3, That's really four of a kind! 4. Why so glum? 5. They are three baby faces! 6. How did he slip into the girls’ party? 7.

JUNIOR Louis Cowart Secretary Hilda Lee Barbara Tweedy President Vice-President September, 1951, was important for twenty- six noisy Freshmen who took their place in high school for the first time. Mrs. Harvey Wilson sponsored our class. Kathleen Elliott was our class president. The year was highlighted by the Farm Show, a class party at Louis Cowart’s home, and the election of Peggy Blankinship and Phyllis Wooldridge to the May Court. September, 1952, found only twenty-two of us enrolled, with Mrs. Wilson again our sponsor, and Freddie Keesee our president. We especially remember the Farm Show, Christmas Program, F.F.A.and F.H.A. Banquets, and class parties. September, 1953, showed only fifteen en- rolled. Mrs. Annie Martin was our home room teacher, and Hilda Lee became our president. We shall be Seniors before many months, but this year we have the thrill of getting our class rings, presenting the Junior Play, and participating in the several Junior and Junior- Senior events.
