Seniors MILDRED JEAN RANDOLPH Having one special lad in mind, quiet and composed with the dark brown hair is Jeanie. She loves to watch football and baseball games but does not go in for playing soft- ball and basketball. Jeanie is undecided as to what to do when she graduates but we can be sure that her future will be a happy one. 194.1-44: Member: Library Club 1944- 45: Member: Glee Club 1945- 40: Member: Junior Play Cast, Glee Club, Social Club Paper Staff 194 i-47: Member: Annual Staff. “ Jeanie” JOHN THOMAS STICKLES, JR. Digging down deep into our group of seniors we come up with a boy who has done a great deal to further the success of our years at Stone¬ wall. Not only is he our most ath¬ letic senior, but he is president of the senior class. Being active in sports he displays a large amount of school letters on his broad chest. Although he hasn’t decided what to do when he graduates in June we wish him luck in whatever he under¬ takes. 1943-44: 1944-45: 1945-40: 1949-47: Member: Monogram Club, Football Squad, Baseball Squad Member: Monogram Club, Literary C 1 u b, Football Squad, Baseball S q u a d, Basketball Squad Member: Monogram Club, Literary Club, Social Club, Glee Club, Football Squad, Baseball Squad, Track Squad, Junior Play Cast, Vice-President: J unio r Class Member: Monogram Club, Football Squad, Track Squad, Baseball Sqiia d, Basketball Squad President: Senior Class. “Tommy” — 26 —

Class History ’47 How quickly the time has passed since we were freshmen! We remember the help and counsel of Mrs. Garland Hopkins during those beginning days. In our sophomore year our class had decreased in number but not in pep and spirit. Surviving our many quarrels we maintained our unity sufficiently to present a worth-while program for the observance of Navy Day. Gifts of ‘pop ' and other things too numerous to mention were presented to the Seniors. Building up a bank account for our future needs as juniors and seniors occupied murh of our time. A substantial sum was realized by getting magazine subscriptions and by the sale of various articles. The “Big Event” of the year was the Easter party. At the beginning of 1945-46 we found ourselves settled in the library as digni¬ fied Juniors. Because of overcrowded conditions, at the request of Mr. Harper we moved into the auditorium for our home room and spent the remainder of the year in the state of “Lost and Found”. Until the present time we are still in search of lost articles. Months were spent in preparation for the big event of every junior year, our banquet which was held at the Shenandoah Hotel in Martinsburg, West Virginia. To finance this, we sold potato chips, pop corn, candy, and hot dogs. Another high¬ light of interest was the selecting of class rings which were presented to us at the banquet. With all of this behind us we were in sight of our goal—Graduation! With much cheering we crossed the threshold of Room Five where we were to spend our last year. Knowing that we were so close to graduation and also that we had many things to do, we started work on our annual, slaving to make it a huge success. The next stepping stone was the Senior play and last, but not least, Gradu¬ ation, our long awaited victory. Allthrough our high school years we have had students to come into our class and many to go out, but from this day into the future, none can come in and none can go out. — 27
