Class History THEM FRESHMEN! Once u n a time we were freshmen. The class of '49 hadx, made its exit from junior high school. We immediately elected joe Hanson as our presi- dent, and Mary Shafer as our candidate for Miss Black Eagle. That year the football team put South Charleston on the map by winning the State Championship! VVVWV THOSE SOPHOMORES! Them Freshmen! Yes, we were rapidly acquiring some savoir-faire. That year's celebrities included Jimmie Henson, our president. Clyde Schoonover played outstanding basketball, along with David McMillion, Iabo Dyer and C. Henson. We liked to think that this made possible our team,s memor- able trip to Morgantown where South Charleston lost in the final game to Huntington East, 48-45. VWVWV THOU IUNIORS! Two factors made our junior year an unusual one. Our class infringed on a sacred senior privi- lege by walking aff with Pep Week honors, the first time that this had occurred in the history of the school. And then in the spring, elaborate plans were made and adhered to for a very successful junior-Senior Prom. Page Thirty YE SENIORS! At last we had reached the highest run on the social ladder. This last and best ear of hi is school was uite an eventful one. With Bob Wiiliams as president of the student body, and jabo Dyer president of our class, many things were accom- plished. Noticeable on November 10th was the scarcity of a male element. The reason? Sadie Hawkins Day, sponsored by the Student Council. Other projects were the selection each week of an out- standing student for Student of the Week and the Fall Festival on November 26. From November 16 to 19 various types of school spirit were displayed as each class vied for top honors in the 'Pep Week contest. Incidentally, the Seniors won. Excitement mounted when, on November 20, our Black Eagles defeated the Dun- bar Bulldogs and thus enabled SCHS to keep the coveted Lions Club Trophy for another year. At this, our last homecoming game, Nancy Dillon reigned as Miss Black Eagle, with Connie Lowe and Libby Kinder attendants. The Snow Festival, sponsored by the Senior Class and held on December 21 was the next important event. Alan Farley as Master of Ceremonies put everyone into the right mood, and the highlight of the evening was, of course, when the Snow Queen, Patty Childress, was presented. Ianuary 26 marked the end of the old semester, with the Senior Class Play, Susie the Siren fol- lowing two days later. Mrs. 'Margaret Smith spon- sored the play and she is to be highly commended for the grand results. May was naturally the rush month, with events such as Senior Skip Day, the final exams from May 23-27, the band concert on May 27, the junior- Senior Prom one night later, the Baccalaureate Ser- mon on May 29, and all of the other last minute rush coming at once. May 31 was THE day, how- ever, holding in store for us a never-to-be-forgotten Commencement, which closed another chapter in the history of South Charleston High School.
