Senior Class... Nineteen school newspaper in South Carolina, and we bade farewell to Miss Mary Talbot, the exchange teacher from Canada, who had guided the publication through a successful year. We rejoiced equally as we heard the chorus, under the direction of Mr. John Mabry, perform in its annual Spring Concert. Highest praise was given Mr. C. E. Landrum and the Dramatics Department for the production of 'Wings of an Angel,' 'Our Town.' 'Crusade,1 'You Can't Take It With You,' and 'Ten Little Indians.' As we gathered together on Recognition Day to watch the upper classmen honored for their achievements in setting an example for our future conduct, we realized that we were still the supporting cast. But by the time the last senior had crossed the stage in June to receive his diploma we were eagerly awaiting the chance to prove ourselves worthy of their bequest in the challenge of the new year before us. THE COUNCIL FOR THE DEFENSE MAY NOW CALL HIS SECOND WITNESS. Josie Dunbar, the girl chosen the Best School Citizen, took the stand to speak for all of us. Another height had been scaled as we tried to settle down to work in the fall of 1954. Again we chose Joe Alley to serve us as class president, with Nancy Shepherd, Buddy Gaines, and Bobby Poteat in supporting roles. The senior class, only one step above us, would be led by Laurens Walker, while the sophomores, creatures actually beneath us, had elected Larry Ayers. Officers of the Student Council were Wiley Bourne, president; Buddy Gaines, vice-president; and Deedy Meyerson, secretary. Pete Martin would give capable direction to the Scribbler, and Libby Hanna was making plans for a SPARTANA even bigger and better than the year before. Another member of the senior class was soon familiar to us, Ingrid Kalish, who had come to S. H. S. from Germany. 'With new responsibilities came new privileges. This year we waited eagerly for invitations to join the Beta Club. With a feeling of new importance, we participated LUNELIA HENDERSON, I send my heart up to thee, all my heart in this my singing.
