SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS - Raymond Reed, president; Hazel Peery, vice president; Vaughn Cassell, secretary-treasurer. SENIORS 1953 They were filled with a combination of fear and excitement, those freshmen of 1949. They were continually asking stupid questions and getting into the wrong room, but they clung together and soon began to fit into the stagger syster. . . and those freshmen are we, the seniors of 1953. We were proud of the classmates who were chosen to lead our class; they were Kathleen Yates, president; Bob Repass, vice president; Jane McGraw, secretary; and Ronald Mitchell, treasurer. Our first thrill was the much anticipated freshman party where we played games, ate, giggled, and a few brave couples danced. Another fall brought us our sophomore year. We elected Bob Repass, president; Charlotte Taylor, vice president; and Katherine Gillespie, secretary-treasurer. With the responsibilities placed upon us that year, we felt that at last we were becoming a part of T.H. S. Our junior class officers were Ronald Mitchell, president; Jay Lockhart, vice president; Vaughn Cassell, secretary; and Margaret Beavers, treasurer. In the early spring, some of the talented members of our class presented the play, No Soap. How well we remember the work and play involved in preparing for the prom—but oh, how we loved it! At the end of the year we elected new officers, and as we watched the old seniors receive their diplomas, we realized we were at last the seniors of T.H.S. Our senior year brought us still greater responsibilities and privileges plus a new principal, Mr. Eugene Ross. Our class was led by Raymond Reed, president; Hazel Peery, vice presi¬ dent; Vaughn Cassell, secretary-treasurer. Homecoming, the Carnival, the Christmas Formal, the fun-packed trip to Washington, the senior play, and May Day were the major activities of our senior year. Such are the memories of the class of 1953 and now graduation with the helpful speeches and the friendly handshakes. We say au revoir but not good-by to our teacher s and friends. We ' re not really leaving—for these memories that cling to our hearts will help us walk through the halls of our high school days and see again familiar faces we once knew. —Hazel Peery, Historian
