I, Novella Crump, bequeath my courage and ability to wear high heels to Virginia Luck-May she never lose another shoe. I, Harold Clark, bequeath my Hoper and Derirer to Roy Herron-May they serve him as well as they have served me for the past four years. I, Donald Wages, bequeath my fickle heart to Benny Conger. I, Ted Simpson, bequeath my college aspirations to Venita Pettiet provided she continues to think not of marriage. I, Mary Thornton, bequeath my movie aspirations to Margarett Lytal-May they at least gain her some autographs. I, Junior Winfield, bequeath my indifference to the charm of red-headed beauties to Billy Smith. I, Melba Roberts, bequeath my being allergic to love to all girls in the junior Class- May this portion be divided equally among them. To Miss Elleine Woodward we leave an electric searchlight which will enable her to find the shortest distance between two points and the locus of a point we spent a year searching for these things and never found them. To Mrs. Hancock we bequeath a most efficient reading glass, whereby she will be enabled to discover not only errors in English, but also misplaced commas, periods, semi- colons, apostrophes, quotations, and exclamation points-She will need it next year with the Senior Class of 1951. To Mrs. Maxey we bequeath an X-ray machine which will enable her to detect and trace any lovering among either juniors or Seniors. To Mrs. james we bequeath a berry pie, which she might find useful in explaining fractions next fall. To Mrs. Merrell we bequeath a bundle of safety pins, cake of me-chanic's soap- needle, thread and a bushel of aspirins so she will be supplied for next year's high school emergencies. To Coach Booz we bequeath a bottle of liniment for his aching muscles caused by putting us through the grind. To Mrs. Putman, we bequeath all the old annual material and play books and a cozy corner in the old Science room where she may spend her last days re-making annuals, practicing plays and enjoying the familiar smell of the Science room. To Mr. james, our principal, we bequeath a leather-covered notebook, in which he will find all the excuses offered for tardiness-and having survived a year with us, we leave the utmost affection and gratitude, and the hope that the class of 1951 will strive to be as good a class as we. To Mr. Hancock, our Superintendent, we bequeath a most valuable and lonely thing, Our Example, may he benefit by our mistakes, if such he has discovered. We also leave our very good wishes. And to the other teachers we bequeath a portion of our affection and good will. We hereby appoint the said class of 1951 executors of this our last will and testa- ment, jointly with the principal and superintendent.

.Jawa Wa!! ,-im eazwwfz We, the members of the Class of 1950, of the High School of Shallowater, having come to our last hours in our right minds, and in peace with all the world do hereby give, bequeath and devise all our wordly goods and possessions to the following beneficiaries: To the juniors we leave our well-known ability to talk back in self defense, and to make any action we may see fit to commit, seem perfectly justifiable and proper, in fact the only thing to do. To the Sophomores, who are soon to become juniors, we bequeath all our stupidity and facility for blundering at the simplest tasks, also the beautiful ease with which we forget, set aside and banish forever the difficult ones. To the Freshmen we give and bequeath all the tears shed in the exams and all the wrong answers set down in moments of weakness. I, Walter Hutton, bequeath my natural aptitude for acquiring knowledge, and all the hungering and thirsting after information usually accompanying these traits, to D. Young, the most indifferent boy in the junior Class. I, Alice Porter, bequeath my entire stock of boy friends, addresses, telephone numbers, convertibles to jimmie Redwine. I, Betty Evans, bequeath to Mary jim Ashburn a small package of much value with an inscription on the outside which says Fragilel Handle with Care --What's inside? Oh, I forgot to tell you-Donald Wages.of course. We, Alice Russell and Newman Lusk, bequeath our pleasure of going-steady and ability to be true to one another to Oleta Boozer and Dayton Marr. I, Sammie Clark, bequeath all my love for the good, the true and beautiful which I find in Ted to Sue Putman and may she find the same happiness with Tommy Strother. I, Bobby Reed, bequeath a very valuable jewel fthe most valuable articles come in small packages, you knowj to jerry Lindsey-You will know this jewel by her blond hair, blue eyes, and broad smile. I, Thomas Ray Reed, bequeath my entire stock of energy which enabled me to study from morning until night, and by this sign never to fail in making my grades, to Leslie King with the hope that he will be Valedictorian. I, Willimae Betts, bequeath my art of bringing about proposals to Francell Williams because I think she will enjoy breaking them,too. I, Peggy Arnold, bequeath my social career done up in a neat little package marked The Loves of Peggy to Mollie Newman. I know that she will enjoy it if she and all parties concerned live through the ordeals without serious injury. I, Dorothy Evans, bequeath my love for music and those who make the music to Carle Foye Evans. I, Mary Ruth Redwine, bequeath my out-of-town boy friends to Nannie Lou Wright.
