A 4 The Freshman Class A Officers of the Freshman class are Sally Wright, Treasurer, Floyd Couch, Vice-President, Crawford Williams, Presidentg Faye King, Secretary, and joy Ross, Reporter. Mrs. Betty Gilliam, Freshman class sponsor, teaches Health and Physical Edu- cation. She also works with G.A.A. each afternoon. All of us appreciate her help in the activities of our class. Page Sixty Entering a new school, meeting new people, and being taught by more than one teacher frightened many of us the first day we entered Southem. Having to walk what seemed like a mile from one class to the other, getting a shower and getting dressed within two minutes after a gym class, and eating our food in fifteen minutes all seemed impossible at first, now all these things are accepted as a part of the routine. Our various activities for the year have included choosing our own cheerleaders, electing our class officers, preparing our Homecoming display, taking part in social functions, and par- ticipating in sports events. As our first year comes to a close, we realize that we have been offered many experiences though there are still oppor- tunities available to us in this great world of ours. The ex- cursions of this first year have served to challenge us to further and more meaningful endeavors as each of us seeks to find his place in the sun.

Sophomorcs --oo r SET NO. UNIT NF! Of much help to students in Biology as well as ln other sciences has been the High School Traveling Library. We were fortunate in being one of the two schools in this area of the state which participated in ihis program sponsored by the National Science ?oundation. Around Southern much emphasis is placed on the basketball season and our number one team. Iohn Council, Iames Taylor, and I. Q. Shaw are adding to :he spirit by working in the concession stands thus zupplying the crowds with refreshments. 1 The library plays an important part in our educa- tion. Reports are prepared here, new literature is dis- covered, and all important term papers are prepared. Students find that the library fumishes a suitable at- mosphere for studying. Y annum--H Some of nature's foremost puzzles are opened to us in Biology, a required Sophomore subject. Experi- ments, microscopic studies, and dissection add in making Biology an interesting course. Pictured above is Mrs. Humm's third period class. Attractive bulletin boards are seen frequently around our world such as this one displaying college information. These also helps to keep us up-to-date on current events.
