Five long years of hard work stared us in the face, but we were a spirited lot and after a few weeks we had become accustomed to the strangeness of this place. Still, however, those oh so dignified and sophisticated seniors were mysterious creatures from higher realms. To guide us through that first year we chose Charles Jones as president. The fall of 1940 rolled around, and once again we found ourselves to be freshmen—but super-freshmen this time. This year was made much more interesting by the fact that we were allowed to participate in sports and club activities. Leading the class that year were Dick Hoyle as president, D. C. Holler as vice-president, David Overton as secretary, and Billy Horton as treasurer. We welcomed 1941 because at last we were sophomores, and we were beginning to be an essential cog in the wheel of activities of Sanford High. The gals of the class were mighty proud to serve as waitresses for the junior-senior prom. Not even the horror of that geometry class could quench our flame of school spirit. Our sophomore leaders were David Overton, president; D. C. Holler, vice-president; and Peggy Kimrey, secretary and treasurer. “Going on Seventeen,’ the junior play, and the junior-senior banquet were the high- lights of our eventful junior year. The election for president of the student body made us feel that at last we were destined to be seniors. Anne Jewell and Dick Hoyle were chosen by the junior class to run for the presidency of the student body. Dick Hoyle defeated Anne Jewell by a small margin. Dick Hoyle did a fine job as president of the junior class. Helping him were D. C. Holler as vice-president and Barbara Woolard as secretary and treasurer. Dignified and sophisticated, we entered school in the fall of 1943 as seniors with privileges and all that goes with being a senior. David Overton was elected as class president, Fletcher Harris as vice-president, Marion Goodrich as secretary, and Nancy Horner as treasurer. Since Dick Hoyle was unable to be back, D. C. Holler was elected by the student council as president of the student body. Our senior year has been the far more eventful of the entire five in high school. The senior play, the junior-senior banquet, clubs and activities of all kinds made our senior year an unforgetable one. High school has been fun, and it has been hard work. At times it has been happy, and at times it has been sad. All in all, it has been the most glorious five years of our lives. We, the Senior Class, should like to pass it on to all of you students who are now here at Sanford High and all who will come after you! BILLY FINCH, MARY YARBOROUGH, Class Historians. Giga) PION AY! Of all our sad days on this sad earth, Our next two years we began to mould None was sadder, since the day of our birth, Into true sons and daughters of the blue and Than the day we bade our fond good-bye, gold, To the pride of our hearts—dear Sanford Hi. But if we had one wish, who could ask for more, Than to live again as seniors in the class of ’44.

Our first year, I think, we were all rather dumb, We shunned our studies—just came to have fun. O Lord, what a sorrow to have to part Time taught us much we hadn’t learned about With a school that has won so much of out life, hearts, Its joys and its sorrows; its happiness and strife. And years to come, our voices will raise, In love, adoration; loyalty and praise— —To our DEAR SANFORD HIGH. HAROLD ALDRED, Class Poet. Page Eighteen PRUPHELCY The year 1964 is really eventful for the class of ’44 boys and girls. As one walks the streets of Sanford, he can see that this flock of moles really did well. As for the girls, quite as few—except for those who have married——have become famous in these twenty years, since their dear and never to be forgotten high school days. The latest gossip is that Charles Jones is making a name for himself in professional ball. Now in New York, Jones has been praised by all the leading sports’ writers. ‘Sports’ Writers’’ brings to mind William “‘Billy’’ Horton, or little ““Willie,’’ as he is known now, who is sports’ writer for the Sanford Herald. Elizabeth Clegg is now one of the leading mezzo-sopranos in the Metropolitan Opera House at New York. Here’s to you. Sanford has several butcher shops: “‘Berryman’s Butchery,’’ ‘“‘Samuel Bost, the Corner Shoppe’; ‘Brafford’s Wholesale Grocery,’’ is a thriving business. Sanford has really grown in twenty years. Louise Coker, who used to be one of the main clerks, is now sole owner and proprietor of that famous 5 10¢ store. As for the betterment of mankind, Inez Creel has been serving as a nurse and social worker in China since the end of the war. D. C. Holler, having traveled to Alaska for new lumber last year, has now become a partner in his father’s lumber busines. Marion Goodrich has contributed much to the advancement of women by having been elected conductor of the Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra now playing over NBC each Sunday evening at 8 o’clock.. Shirley Harless is continuing her work in the study of people and how to improve their living conditions. Nancy Horner, one of the women correspondents found to be capable for the position, has been in Russia for several months now and still seems to be enjoying her work. Lee Drug Store is still a thriving business. For the past sixteen years, David Overton has been the town’s most dependable druggist—Joe has retired. Inventions seem to be numerous now, but Lelia Josephs has topped the list by making in her laboratory Soya Beans, which has proved to be a popular food. Bill Finch is practicing medicine in the Lee County Hospital. His new thesis is, ‘‘Carving Fantasies.”’ Anne Jewell, laboratory technician, has recently discovered the remedy for healing broken hearts. About time somebody did. Charles Beck, for the past fourteen years, has directed the band at Sanford High School. The new school has many courses available and a crew of screwy teachers. Elizabeth Kennedy, after many years of hard work, has received the much sought after “MRS” degree. “The Allen Funeral Home’ has been named the best in the state, and Lemuel Allen is writ- ing a book called ‘‘Death on a Holiday.”’ Jean Lassiter, secretary for one of Chicago’s leading business men, is now the junior’s wife. Fletcher Harris is now filling the position of coach at the University of North Carolina. He was presented with an honor gift by his squad last year. Ann Makepeace, social worker for the United States government, just announced her engage- ment to the poorest man in the block. Since Bob Hanner and Frances Reeves Hanner have been in New York, Bob has bought the Gail Airline, which is now operating all over the world. Darrell Byerly is Bob’s closest competitor, because he runs the Windblown Airlines, also in New York. Joyce Mathews has settled down to a happy home life with Jack Dollar as the man of the house. Bill Womack, now known as Francis Ladd, the best looking boy in Hollywood, has recently finished the picture, ‘Why My Hair Is Wavy,’ based on the Broadway play, “‘Kinky.”’ Furman Greene, or Peter Taylor, one time Navy hero, is co-starring with Ladd. Margaret Norris, Peggy Poe, and Margaret Tatum are running a stiff competition with Mack’s dime store. Needham House has just been given a radio program of comedy over WPTF. Hubert McCracken is his manager and writer. Betty Oliver, the second Betty Grable, having been with the Powers’ models several years, recently signed up with M.G.M. in Hollywood. Hazel Pittman Cashion is acting as bookkeeper for her husband, Charles Cashion. Madge Sanders is beyond comparison with the famed Amelia Earhart. She has been awarded the medal for the fastest airplane trip around the world. Louise Vila looked very charming on her return trip to the States from Argentina where she interpreted the Spanish language for our visiting American tourists. Louise Wicker and Barbara Woolard, who are both married, recently announced their inten- tions to start a day nursery for the children of working mothers. Harold Allred, now owner of a commercial art school in New York, returned to dear old Sanford for a brief visit, before sailing for Paris where he will further his art studies. Mary Yarborough is, along with several others, the head laboratory technician at Duke University. SHIRLEY HARLESS, BILLY FINCH, Prophets.

Being mentally alert and wide-awake, the boys and girls of the class of ‘45 soon learned which stairs to use, where our classes met, and willingly caught that wonderful disease known as ‘“‘school spirit.” Our freshman year finally arrived as Doug Johnson, Irene Williams, and Lucille Gibson led us through without a hitch. With Louis Fore, Doug Johnson, Bob Stack, and William Knott as our officers, our sophomore year passed leaving us such memories as only World His- tory, and second year Latin would have! With John Pittman, William Knott, and Emily Kimrey serving us, we find that we as Juniors are looking forward to a Junior play and hoping we shall be able to have a long awaited Junior-Senior Banquet.

C. Holler, President; Billy Burkeholder, Secretary; Anne Jewell, Treasurer; and Bill Womack, Sergeant-at-Arms, ended another successful year. The students representing the home rooms were the following: Jimmy Cashion, Mary Fields, Ralph Fields, Maurice Hall, Douglas Johnson, Charles Jones, William Knott, Earl Johnson, Colleen McDonald, David Over- ton, Harold Roberts and Mary Yarborough. The council was responsible for the school handbooks, dedicated to the eighth grade, and which were begun last year but were not completed until this semester. An important part did the Student Council play in making the Third and Fourth War Loan Drives worthwhile. This year, we were glad to hear, the Council reported very few cases of students being reprimanded for their misbehavior. Page Forty-four THE BANK This year the school bank has open daily during the second period. Mrs. Miller and Walter Temple have managed the bank most successfully. This organization saves the National Bank a great deal of trouble by uniting all school accounts into one. Individual club accounts were so very small and difficult to handle accurately. In the school bank the individual clubs deposit t heir money and draw all checks through the school bank. The Athletic Association has given the bank more money than any other organization in school. Up to the present time this year the bank has handled about $3,000. Page Forty-five Siig NLU Ee ey ee eB This year the Senior Girls’ Hi-Y has made unusual progress under the leadership of Mary Yarborough, president; Marian Goodrich, vice-president and program chairman; Ann Makepeace, secretary; Louise Vila, treasurer; and Miss Audrey James, faculty adviser. In this crisis the girls have tried to keep up the morale as well as the high standards of Christian character throughout the school and community by sending flowers to the sick at Christmas time, by selling forget- me-nots, and by sending records to soldiers. The club also presented a play, ““The Old Maids,”’ in chapel. It is the hope of the club that the Senior Girls’ Hi-Y will play a greater part in school and community undertakings. BUYS SENIUR HI-Y The Boys’ Senior Hi-Y is a member of the National Hi-Y fellowship. The purpose of the club is, “To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, higher standards of Christian character.’’ The platform of the club is, ‘Clean speech, clean sports, clean scholarship, and clean living.” Officers are: president, Fletcher Harris; vice-president, Furman Greene; second vice-president, David Overton; secretary and treasurer, Charles Jones; adviser, Mr. Marcus Simpson. Page Forty-stx GIRLS JUNIUR HI-Y “To maintain and extend throughout the school and community higher standards of Christian character.”’ In living up to this motto, the Girls’ Junior Hi-Y has sponsored drives for two worthy causes, the Junior Red Cross and the U. D. C. Under the leadership of Miss Louise Midgette the club has experienced a successful year. Officers of the Girls’ Junior Hi-Y are: Ann King, president; Elinor McNair, vice-president; Emma Holmes, secretary; Katherine Anne Knight, treasurer; Nancy Knott, sergeant-at-arms. BUUSTERS CLUB In spite of the fact that this year the eighth grade girls were late getting the Boosters Club started, they have shown great interest in the many activities carried on by the school. Their main interest was centered around the sale of War Bonds, though they also helped with the “Forget-Me-Not”’ sale, the Infantile Paralysis Drive and others. Their very capable adviser is Mrs. Nancy McIver Taylor. The girls appreciate her interest in their club and its activities. Officers are: Peggy Williams, president; Elsie Wicker, vice-president; Eleanor Heins, secretary and treasurer. Page Forty-seven JUNIOR MUsIC CLUB This year, as well as in past years, the Junior Music Club has done excellent work under the guidance of capable officers and excellent advisers. The Club has had as its topic of study, “American Composers: and Their Works.” In the fall, a silver tea was staged, which was a great success. A chapel program given in February was enjoyed by all the students. The work of this club really indicates that the Junior Music Club is wide awake and capable of putting anything over the top. One of the meetings in April was the guest day, in which all the parents were invited to this meeting as special guests. This day is designated to display the work of the club throughout the year. The present officers are: president, Nancy Horner; vice-president, Shirley Harless; secretary, Inez Creel; treasurer, Ann Jewell. The advisers are Misses Edna Earle Beddingfield and Janie Sawyer, who have led the girls through a most brilliant and successful year. Gee, (EAL Lhe This year the second period glee club, with the aid of the activity period glee club, has accomplished a great deal. The Boys’ Glee Club, displaying its spirit of fun and frivolity, gave a womanless wedding which was a howling success. Since the theme of the year is patriotism, so has been that in the Glee Club. In the fall a patriotic program was presented in chapel to the students and later repeated for the Parent-Teacher Association. In spite of the adverse weather conditions which brought snow, ice, and an extremely cold night, the annual Christmas concert was presented in its beauty and reverence. The Glee Club presented to the high school students a delightful spring concert. of semi-classical and popular selections. The officers are: president, Shirley Harless; vice-president, Billy Finch; secretary, Edna House; and treasurer, Charles Beck. Page Forty-eight THE BAND This year the Sanford High School Band, under the direction of H. L. Goodrich, has really done its part in our high school activities. The band, arrayed in their brand new blue and gold uniforms, have added pep and spirit to the football games. They accompanied the team to Fayetteville and Hamlet, making fine appearances in both places. Displaying patriotism and a desire to help in our national struggle, they were on the job doing what they could by playing for the numerous band rallies in and around Sanford. The future looks very bright and in a few years it is possible that Sanford may have one of the best bands in the state. Here’s hoping! The officers of the Band are as follows: president, Billy Farrell; vice-president, Charles Beck; secretary and treasurer, Marian Goodrich. The members of the Band are as follows: Clarinets: Marian Goodrich, Maurice Hall, William Wagner, Madge Sanders, Rhumell Camp- bell, Mary A. Wilkins, Betty Oliver, Charles Beck, Charles Warner, Homer Faulk, Mary T. Benson, Jimmy Meletion, Sheila Bell, Vernon Isenhour, Joe Sprott. Mellophones: Bobby Cline, Dorothy Waddell, Dickey John- son, Clarence Dickens. Alto Saxophones: Sylvia Make- peace, Tommy Davenport. Tenor Saxophones: Lynn Led- den, Paul Bobbitt, Gordon Allen. Cornets: Charles Patterson, Nelson Childress, Jr., Billy Far- rell, Wade Fields, Carl Coggins, Edwin Johnson, Charles Harless, Ruth Roseman, Billy Wyatt, Frank Hoover, Curtis Womack, Edwin Farrell, Bobby Stewart. Trombones: E. B. Keith, Jr., Pred Riddle, Billy Faulk, Albert Rose, Claiborne Wilkie, Charles Godfrey, Rufus Yarborough. Drums: Bobby Hayes, Johnny McBride, Tommy Poindexter, John Mack Burns, Bill Pittman, Joe Frank Higdon. Flute: Evelyn Goodrich. Bass Drum: Bill Paschal. Drum Major: Lynn Ledden. Majorettes: Peggy Williams, Helen Godley, Evelyn Goodrich. Page Forty-nine PANURAMA SIAFE In spite of printing difficulties resulting from the war, the Panorama Staff, under the leadership of Louise Vila, editor, and of Miss Helen Williams, adviser, has done a splendid job during this school year. Being unable to find a printer who would print the paper, the staff soon learned to cut stencils and to use the school’s mimeograph machine for the purpose of printing the paper. In mimeographing the paper, the publishing cost was greatly reduced; therefore the staff was able to reduce the subscription price of the paper. The students thereby could use the extra money for war stamps. Page Fifty DIVERSIFIED OCCUPATIONS The future secretaries, salesladies, meat cutters, mechanics, salesmen, theater managers, and other business people settle down to study their particular subjects at ten o clock every morning. The material which we study is selected by our coordinator, Mr. Marcus B. Simpson, and is related in some way to our occupation. The members of the Diversified Occupation Program come to school for one-half of the day and work the other half of the day. Two periods of each day are used for study which is devised to help the student become more success- ful in his or her work. The D. O. Program furnishes many opportunities. The experience gained proves ever helpful, and the opportunity of enabling a student to get some idea as to what a particular vocation is like presents itself. The student in addition to receiving credit for his graduation and valuable experience is also able to earn his own spending money. Since 1940 about 100 boys and girls have had or are taking the training now. Even though the program in our school is only four years old, it is a very successful program and has become popular among the students. The students who have graduated and who are now at work are very grateful for the training they had in the Diversified Program. Page Fifty-one ATHLETICS FUUTBALL CHARLES ‘‘BUCK’’ JONES JAMES “RED” BRIDGES Co-Captain Co-Captain Wat AMEN ITG IG WNW TOIL The Athletic Council was organized this year and is composed of both students and faculty members. The student representatives are Charles Jones and Fletcher Harris of the Monogram Club; D. C. Holler, Jr., and William Knott of the Student Council. Representing the faculty are Mrs. Edwin Hubbard, Principal E. R. Smith, and Coach Edwin Hubbard. The Athletic Council is a policy-making organization with relations to intramural and inter- scholastic athletics. The Council determines the eligibility of participants of the various school teams. MUNUGRAM CLUB The Monogram Club is made up of students who have participated in varsity sports and who have earned the right to wear a monogram. The motto of the Monogram Club is, ‘‘To raise the standard of sportsmanship in Sanford.’’ The Monogram Club again this year had football programs printed and distributed them free at the games. Our capable advisers are Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard. The officers are: Charles Jones, president; Pletcher Harris, vice-president; Lem Allen, secretary and treasurer; James Bridges, Sergeant- at-Arms, Page Fifty-four GDP ie rsevaulneatre IRENE WILLIAMS MARY ETHEL GUNTER SARAH GUNTER -AANN MAKEPEACE ELSIE JEAN VICK, Chief Page Fifty-five SANFURU YELLUW JACKETS With Sanford High School’s having lost eight lettermen and a coach, the football aspects for the fall of ’43 didn’t look so bright. In September we secured a coach. Coach Hubbard, an alumnus of our High School, and a former Uni- versity of North Carolina athlete, was the answer to our prayers. Along with a few newcomers and plenty of pep and spirit, Coach Hubbard and the boys started the year off with a bang by trouncing Asheboro 20-0. All in all foot- ball season was quite successful. The Jackets won five games, tied nine games, and lost four games. The fine coaching and team work of the boys this year produced North Carolina's first string All-State end, Charles (Buck) Jones. During the season through his steady pass-receiving and his ability to get those extra points, Buck scored 60 points. Through his own work and through the fine team work of his fellow players, ““‘Buck”’ rightfully earned his honorable position on the all-state team.

In practice the girls showed enthusiasm and the will to work hard. The coaching of the squad changed hands three times during the season. Following Miss Griffin’s resignation, Mrs. Ed Hubbard substituted until Miss Seay arrived to take over the girls’ physical education. The squad consisted mostly of eighth and ninth grade girls. We, thereby, have the promise of a good team for the next few years. With the return of five lettermen the season was off to an exciting start. The team won about one-half of the games played this year. Some of our games were lost only by a very small margin. The lettermen, Emily Kimrey, Irene Williams, Mary E. Gunter, Elsie Vick, and Jane Wilkins, helped in the training of the squad. Ruth Baine was an outstanding guard and could readily handle the ball. Even though this was her first year out, Ruth earned her position on first string. Elsie Vick and Emily Kimrey were elected co-captains for the year. Elsie did a wonderful job this year and contributed much to the team in her position as guard. Emily Kimrey, forward, really kept a clear head in tough spots and held the team together. Kimrey and Williams ran a close race for high score honors. Irene Williams, Jane Wilkins, and Mary Ethel Gunter all played splendid ball this year. Wilkins and Gunter will be back next year, although it is doubted if Williams will return. This will be a hard place to fill, as Williams has racked up many points for the team. Anne Jewell, manager, and her assistant, Dorothy Harriss, really worked hard for the team. and deserve much recognition. Page Fifty-eight UA cca Aver aks LG ACI With practically the same team as last year Sanford High’s Yellow Jackets took the Eastern Class ‘‘B’’ Championship and just fell short of capturing the State Class “‘B’’ Championship for the second consecutive year. With three boys over six feet tall, Sanford’s height proved to be a great advantage. The lineup usually consisted of Johnny Pittman, Bill Joyce, Buck Jones, Bob Stack. and Buddy Holler. Beating four Class “‘A’’ teams, the jackets ended the season with 16 winnings out of 19 games, two of those losses being accredited to Greensboro and Raleigh with whom we split a two game series. Much praise should be bestowed upon Coach Ed Hubbard, who although he had never coached basketball, through his hard work with the boys, got results. With Buck Jones pacing the way with 174 points and Bobby Stack with 128, the Jackets racked up 801 points to their opponents’ 531. Sanford averaged 42 to their opponents’ 28. Everyone looked upon the games of the “Little Blues’’ this year with much interest. We think that the team and coach should be recognized for their hard work and their interest. The codperation of the city and of the school should not be overlooked.
