6104.4 Jffialorg PART I Prehistoric In the dark, dreary days of 1937, a band of children began their crusade toward mental enlightenment. With eyes cocked and paddles poised, teachers led the little warriors safely through the first few centuries. Only the belief that Mr. Braxton's office harbored an electric paddle and only the awe of the third Hoor and fourth graders kept the Holy Terrors on the right path. The following periods, though, were ones of trial and mostly error-yet the vacancy of little minds was slowly being replaced with proud knowledge. Exhausted teachers behind and chaos before, the tough little crusaders picked up their books and marched on through the wise, smiling old corridors of S. C. H. S. PART II Ancient History: The Dark Ages In 1944 a new land was discovered. The third floor of S. C. H. S. was explored and found to be lacking in the Phantoms of the Past. New people, those migrating from the Henry Siler School, joined the eager band under the firm, patient leadership of Miss Lambe and Miss Amick. Over and over again the adventurers were told the why's, howys, wherefore's, what's, and I-don't-know's of the dayg and after the first semester no one could tell the Jr. Freshmen from the Seniors- except, of course, the Jr. Freshmen themselves Cand probably the Seniorsi.

Basketball was growing in popularityg in fact, becoming so popular that stu- dents often left their pursuit of knowledge to help the teams overtake the vic- tories. Both the girls' and the boys, teams won county championships this yearg and Emily Carter and Lydia Moody, sole freshmen on the girls' team, began their athletic careers. So another age had come and vanished before anyone could imagine it. With a vivacious attitude toward life and a malicious look toward books, the fresh- men rippled on to a new age-the Renaissance! PART III Ancient History: The Renaissance The day dawned bright and clear over S. C. H. S. Mr. Howard and Mrs. Hardee were fortunate C? J. They-with Frank Fields as President, Lydia Moody as Vice- president, and Dempsey McLeod as Secretary-helped the sophomores force their way into the destiny of the school. The football team wrote their history in Red and White by winning the Class B championship at Draper. Richard Siler and Herman Kennedy were on the 15
