Z., Z will A X li .li the play we started packing to go with the Seniors to Washington. Then in May, we gave the Seniors a banquet. For the first time everyone's dates were invited to dine and dance. Our Junior marshals were: Bertha Jack- son, Edna Grace Price, Bill Lynch, Judy Price, Lerlene Kilpatrick, and Georgia Benton. When school began in the fall of 1958, our group which had been re- duced to 23 in number, began our Senior year. Our sponsor was Mrs. Imogene Price. Our class officers were: President-Bill Lynch, Vice- P r e s . -Frazier Hardy, Secretary- Ste v e P r i c e , Treasurer-Georgia Benton, Reporter-McKinley Price. When we received our class rings in October, we were a happy group of Seniors I In January we gave our play, It's A Great Life. The days began moving swiftly, and before we knew what was happening the Juniors gave us our banquet on May 1. At last we drew near our aim - graduation. It came so quickly that we could not quite realize that at last all our worries and heartaches had been of some avail. Only a few days after we began practicing for our graduation exercises, we walked dovsm the aisle to get our diplomas. Graduation was over and we were now ready to go our separate ways and accomplish our goals in life. Linda Cobb Historian , 4' las! Will ,Ami Zcstamcut We, the Seniors of 1959, being of sound minds do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament. To our faculty members we leave our sincere appreciation for the time they have spent trying to teach us the things we were unwilling to learn. To our beloved and wonderful teacher, Mrs. Imogene Price, we leave our apologies for all the worries and troubles we have caused her this year. We also leave her our love and apprecia- tion for being so kind, patient, and tmderstanding with us. The following valuable personal bequests, free- ly and full given, should be treasured as a remind- er of the generosity of the class and the indivi- duals thereof. We trust these responsibilities will be assumed promptly and bring important results. I, Frazier Hardy, do will my ability to be in the wrong place at the right time without getting cau- ght to C. C. Price. I, Lynda Cobb, will my ability to forget what should be forgotten to Kaye Dawson. I, Jimmy Brown, will my ability to skip school to Jimmy Grady. I, Bertha Ellen Jackson, will my Geometry book and my intense interest in Geometry to Judy Rai- ford in hopes that Mr. Creel will teach Geometry instead of Algebra II next year. I, McKinley Price, will my excess weight to Marilyn Rouse. I, Judy Price, will my ability to always be re- gular with the school bus to Linda Price.

Y ln-Q A Salutatary I, as salutatorian, speak on behalf of the members of the Senior Class of 1959 in welcoming you tonight to our graduation exercise. It is indeed a warm welcome that we extend to the faculty, school board, friends, schoolmates, relatives, and most of all - to our beloved parents who have made it possible for us to have an honored place on this stage tonight. As we walk up, 'one by one, to re- ceive our long-awaited diplomas, we shall bring to an end our high school days. Then we shall turn our faces toward the future. But what lies a- head for each of us is unknown for we shall meet our destiny little by little. We feel that we have learned so much during our twelve long years of school. We feel that now we are pre- pared to meet what-ever obstacles we might be confronted with. But are we? Are we fullyprepared to shoul- der the heavy responsibilities of adult life? Are we emotionally strong enough to go about solving our most difficult problems in a calm, yet thorough and intelligent manner ? We do sincerely believe that our high school training will surely prove valuable as we attempt to perform our duties to ourselves, our loved ones, our country, and to all man- kind. But yet, we realize that we have so much more to learn. Much of this we shall learn by our mistakes 5 but actually, what better way is there to learn lessons which we can never forget? We knowthat our climb toward suc- cess in whatever we choose to do will be a long, weary one. But we have warm courage and high hopes for the future. And if we retain the confi- dence and understanding of each of you here tonight, we shall most cer- tainly put forth our best efforts and the results will surely prove favor- able. So, in welcoming you here tonight, we are hoping that during this grad- uation exercise you, too, will be sharing our sweet memories of the past and the inward excitement and happiness of this great day. May you look forward with us as we dwell on thoughts of what tomorrow may bring. May you share with us our happiness, our sadness, and our hopes of lives filled with only the very best of every- thing good. Again, we bid each of you a most cordial welcome. Salutatorian Edna Grace Price

I see agroup of familiar faces going to a big music concert on Mars. Let us stop to see who is in the group. When I stop I see that they are the 1959 graduating class of Seven Springs High School. The first face I see is that of Edna Grace Price. She is preparing to sing her latest hit and is now practicing at the piano before the crowd arrives. The crowd is gathering outside. The first per- son that enters is Rosa Tripp. She is now owner of asuccessful chain of beauty shops in St. Louis, Missouri. Behind her is Minnie Ruth Price, her greatest competitor, who is striving to lengthen her corporation of beauty shops in the next state. Next I see Jimmy Brown. It seems as if he can't skip work as he skipped school because he is now the President of General Motors Corpor- ation. Here comes Patty Herring who just flew in with her husband. Patty is now owner of the largest summer resort in Florida. Frazier Hardy just joined the group. Frazier is doing well in his mechanical shop on Kinston. Linda Cobb is very content working as a pri- vate secretary to her husband who is now com- manding officer of Seymour Johnson Air Force Base. Harry Price is employed to take pictures of the concert to be published in the Seven Springs Cultured Life. The book is edited by another classmate, Ella Fulghum, who is also a famous music critic. Donald Williams, who is now Dean of Williams Business College in Seven Springs, now enters. Steve Price arrives in his cowboy suit. Steve is now the proud owner of a huge ranch in Texas. I, Emmett Shivar, will all my love to Joyce Garris. I, Patty Herring, will my World History book and all my notes with my best wishes to any up- rising Sophomore who needs it. I, Georgia Benton, do leave my slim figure to Lynn Head. I, Bill Lynch, will my ability to play basketball to Bertha Benton. I, Donald Williams, do hereby will my ability to graduate to Vann Holmes. I, Ray Potter, do leave my quietness to the loud mouthed Juniors. I, Lerlene Kilpatrick, do will my ability to get along with the teachers and principal to Ronald Letchworth. This document is signed and sealed by Lerlene Kilpatrick Prophecy I see Bertha Ellen Jackson, who is working on some new teaching methods, entering with a friend, Georgia Benton. Georgia is now the head nurse at Seven Springs Memorial Hospital. Calvin King is owner and operator of the King Electrical Corporation in LaGrange. Bill Lynch is now teaching Geometry at the State University. Lerlene Kilpatrick is now secretary to the President of the Purina Feed Company. Incident- ally, the president is her husband. Judy Carol Price is very happily married and still living in her beautiful home in the Indian Springs Township. Emmett Earl Shivar is a very famous jeweler in Paris. Betty Jane Wade has made a name for herself as asuccessful business woman. She is residing in Richlands. Donald Price urges us all to be sure not to miss his latest movie, Teenage Rock and Roll , in which he plays the leading part. Ben Hancock, who is designing all-occasion cards for Hallmark, now arrives. A late arrival is made by Ray Potter who is an Admiral in the Navy. Ray just returned from a Mediterranean Cruise. An equally late arriver is McKinley Price. McKinley is late because of adelay in an auction at his stock market. I regret leaving this sea of familiar faces, but the doors are closing and the concert begins with an audience of successful Seniors of 1959. Rosa Tripp Prophet
