SENIOR HIGHLIGHTS Beverly J. Crouch We, the Senior Class of 1943, as we look back on our education in grammar school, see ourselves as a regular group of school kids. But, in the year of nineteen hundred and forty, we find ourselves ready to begin junior high. Oh yes, we were Freshmen! Needless to say, we were happy, and felt big , but at the same time we must admit that we were a wee bit scared. The day which stands out most throughout the year of nineteen-forty was Freshman Day. Of course, a good many of you will remember a few things which took place on that day—Annie Laurie Summers had to make a proposal, and Peggy Maxwell had to give us a little jitterbugging. We were funny-looking running around in long socks, and our dresses on backwards, but it was fun. In the year of nineteen forty-one, as time rolled by, and we began our Sophomore year, we left some of our classmates behind, but of course we added a great many to our large family. The biggest event this year was the time when a few of us were lucky enough to have our names drawn as waiters and waitresses for the Junior-Senior Banquet. Although we were waiters that night, they gave us the pleasure of dancing after we had completed our work, and so we ended our Sophomore Year. Finally, in nineteen forty-two, we became Juniors. It seemed almost impossible. From the time when we were old enough to remember, we have looked up to the Seniors and longed to be one. Well, here we are—only one year hence. We had a lot of things to look forward to, but our eye was on the greatest event of the whole year—the Junior-Senior Banquet. We were kept busy making money for this affair by giving dances after the football games, keeping a drink stand out at the games, and many other things. At length, we had made enough money for the banquet and some over. With the money we had left over, our class started a new tradition by buying a $100.00 war bond and presenting it to the school on the night of graduation in our new gymnasium. With the buying of this bond our Junior Year was completed. This year of nineteen hundred and forty-three we took as our motto, To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield, and thus, we dignified seniors began our last year. This year we began another tradition, the making of on annual. It seems as if our grade is known for beginning things. We have had quite a number of disappointments this year because of World War II. Roy Cogburn, Crawford Cox, and Donald Grant left our ranks to join the colors. Frankie Tuten, Edna Poppell, C. J. Brinson, and Doyle Woods left us to learn a trade to help in the Civilian Defense of our country. But if these sacrifices lor should I call them sacrifices?! will help to make us a free, peaceful nation once again, then, we gladly make them. We leave behind us this year a school of work and play. To the teachers, principals, and to each and every pupil we wish for you during the years to come health, peace, and happiness. Page Eleven
