Henry Gard- Your station, S. H. S. It is the first thing I have heard from my ole school mates in over seven years. I must not miss this meeting. I just can’t wait for the time to come when we will be together again. There is a plane leaving Roosevelt Field going South Friday at 6:00 A. M., and it will land in Suffolk, Friday at 5:00 P. M. I must get ready. I couldn ' t miss such a treat. After a long and tiresome journey, the plane landed at 5:00 P. M.. and I was the first to get off. One look in the sky. which was thickly dotted with skyscrapers, gave me knowledge that the Class of ’33 had really made Suffolk a prosperous city. As I walked into the office to get my baggage, which had l een sent by another plane. I noticed an aviator standing against the counter talking to the stenographer. He looked around and who do you think it was—Claude Lilly. He grabbed me in his arms and gave me a hearty welcome to the ‘‘World’s largest Peanut Market —Suffolk. I stood there dumbfounded when someone else gave me a slap on the back—Elizabeth Hayes who was Claude’s stenographer. “Would you have known it to lx the same place?” asked Claude. “This is what the Class of ’33 has heljxd do.” “I would never have dreamed that such an improvement could have been made. I must see every nook and corner lx fore I leave.” “Come with me.” offered Claude, and I will show you everything and everybody you ever knew. I know City Manager Parker Brown will lx delighted to see you. as your presence will make our meeting one hundred jxr cent in attendance.” We got in his Baby Lincoln and went flying up North Main street, which had been beautified by widening the street and planting beautiful shade trees along each side. Claude stopped in front of the Hotel Elliott, which had been beautifully remodeled, and took my baggage in. He told me that Curtis Johnson was manager, and he knew I would get all the service I needed, and that I would enjoy being there. Curtis was as glad to see me as I was to see him. Claude told me that he would be back after dinner, and we would go to the meeting together. As I walked through the lobby I noticed a large jxjster on the bulletin board with a face on it that looked very familiar. It was none other than “Flinky” Piland. coach of Suffolk High School’s teams, which was giving a baseball game Saturday at 3:30 o’clock. [ 20 ] I took the elevator up to the fifth floor. After dressing. I went down for dinner. The dining room was full of people, but they were all strangers to me. Claude was right on time. We got in his Bahv Lincoln and went shooting down Saratoga street to the school. I thought I was in front of the Empire State building. I would have never recognized it as the branch that we used to play in. for it had l een filled in and an annex built to the old high school. We took the elevator up to the third floor which the main auditorium was on. Three loud cheers rang out as I entered the auditorium. I was never so surprised to think that no one had forgotten me during my long | eriod of absence. City Manager Brown gave a very interesting talk on The Growth of the Peanut Market.” Frances Eason, editor of the Knows All, Suffolk’s daily paper, was there with her two most dependable reporters—Catherine Smith and Berniece Jones. Marion Bradshaw, manager of the “Silver Slipper Night Club,” cordially invited us over after the meeting adjourned. Much appreciation was given Henry Gardner for the use of his microphone and his kind service of announcing. After the meeting, we took the “Fresh Air Taxi. owned and operated by Hodges Parker and Edward Baines, over to the “Silver Slipi er.” Chief of Police Henley Churn with his assistant. C. B. Pond, guarded the place to make sure w f e enjoyed ourselves in peace. A lively tune played by the “Cotton Club Comedians,” directed bv Aul ert Nimmo, made us feel merrier than ever. Charles Smith very kindly served soft drinks from his up-to-date soda fountain during the evening. Helen Riddick, an instructor in dancing, gave us a number which included all of the latest steps even to the “Camel’s Walk. Edythe Ballard, accompanied at the piano by Helen Churn, rendered a numlier of solos. Never had I in New York enjoyed an evening as much as I had this one spent in Suffolk. The next morning I was invited over to the beautiful Laurel Cliff Country Club to play Suffolk’s 1943 golf champion, Evelyn Burchett. Thomas Britt, president of the Helen Wills Tennis Club, gave me a number of new jjoints in playing tennis. How sorry I was that today was Sunday, and I w-ould have to leave for New York. It was made a promise that there would be another reunion in 1953 and every member agreed to be present. I boarded my plane and waved a Goodbye to the prosperous Class of 1933. [21] Junior Poem To Suffolk High, our Alma Mater, We hail thee as our friend; You brought us forward to this place Where soon our school days end.

Baseball Team Boosters Club I N order to reduce somewhat the stress and strain of the student body’s financial problem, we put in use this year the “Student Activity Fee.” ' This fee was set by the Student Senate at two dollars cash or two dollars and fifty cents on the installment plan. A student paying this fee was entitled to l)e admitted to all the home-games of the football, basketball and baseball teams and two three-act plays. Mr. Wilbert Crocker was in charge of the ticket sale. At the first meeting of all the pupils who had purchased an activities ticket, it was decided to name this organization the Boosters Club. Helen Churn was elected to lead the club and Elmo Howell and Lucy Norfleet were elected vice-president and secretary and treasurer, respectively. A committee composed of Edythe Ballard, Helen Riddick, Virginia Willis Spain and Curtis Johnson was appointed to draw up the by-laws and aims of the club. The main event of the year was the banquet and dance given by the club in honor of the Girls’ and Boys’ Basketball Teams. The banquet took place in the sewing room of the Domestic Science Department and dance was held in the high school gym. Music was furnished by Mammie Kelly and her orchestra. Both the dance and banquet were very successful. The Boosters Club stands for the highest tyi e of school spirit and loyalty interwoven with fairness and good sportsmanship. The aim of the club is to boost every worthwhile student movement, to raise the morale of Suffolk High and to improve the scholarship. All the worthwhile movements made to improve the school have been sponsored by this organization. The Clean Up Campaign improved the appearance of lx th the halls and grounds of Suffolk High. The Better Assembly Programs Committee headed bv Virginia Pepper and advised by Mrs. Seward has been very successful not only in improving the Chapel programs, but in bringing out the hidden talents of many pupils. The Pep Meetings have done much to boost the morale of the school. 127 Honor Awards r ■ H E Student Senate’s most outstanding work this year has been the I creation of the honor award system. Although just an experiment, it has proven quite successful in Suffolk High School. Much of the credit should be given to the Senate for having accomplished the legislation necessary for the establishment of such a system. The motion was passed that all pupils having a certain scholastic average and being participants in the school’s activities should be awarded some public recognition. It was decided that in order to be eligible for this distinction a pupil must maintain a scholastic record of at least two B’s, with no mark lower than a C and must not have more than three absences or tardies. Parker Brown, Aubert Ximmo and Mary Arthurs with Virginia Pepjier, acting as chairman, and Mr. Chase, as adviser, formed a committee for the selection of those qualified. There were seventy-seven applicants: fifty-five girls and twenty-two boys. After a great deal of thought and deliberation, the committee agreed to make awards to fifteen girls and seven Ixjys. The basis for this selection was very important. Scholarship, while not the main factor, was considered gravely. A well rounded life for an average student was the real basis for the decision. A good scholastic record, partici¬ pation in the various school activities, such as: the clubs, basketball, football and l aseball teams, leadership, initiative and decidability were thought to characterize this well rounded life. Work outside of school such as music, art and so forth was taken into account. A second committee composed of Helen Churn, Elmo Howell, Elsie Warrington, Harriet Eley and Gene Eve was formed to act as a check on the alxive mentioned committee whose selections proved to lie satisfactory. A sjiecial assembly was set aside for the presentation of the awards. Later the selected group met and organized with the intention of continuing their work, in an effort to inspire other pupils. The organization induces greater achievement and fosters a more friendly attitude between teachers and students. It is our earnest hope that the honor award system will be kept active in Suffolk High School. 128| Honor Award Pupils Jack Brothers . Thelma Brothers. Marguerite Bell.
