Class History In the year nineteen hundred and forty-.scven the Seliool Board of Bristol, hrginia, deereed that tlie sehool system must eonsist of twel e grades instead of eleven. Out of this ehaos arose a determined but eonfused group of twenty-six students. We were elassified as sophomores al- though there sere not supposed to be any sophomores that year. We ehosc Fred Aekerman to lead us through our sophomore year. As Juniors we were twenty-two strong and we were ready for anything that might be given to us to do. After some debate as to our ability, the job of running Miss Virginia High night was given us. This was our ehanee to prove ourselves in the eyes of the other elasses. Vc worked together and gave a perform- anee rated with the best. We also gave a junior play. With the money we netted from these two enterprises we gave the junior-senior banquet in style. hthout the able help of our sponsor. Miss Evelyn McClellan, we feel that we could not ha e clone these things; for when we were discouraged, she dro ' e us on. Our president for this year of glory was Meryle Owens. At last we were ■-eniors. Although we were a far ery from the himclred-elesen which graduated the year before, we were still honored by the underclassmen just as much. We have worked hard to try to keep up with the larger classes and hope that we have done as well as the elasses in the past. Vc hope that the elasses in the future enjoy their school clays as much as we have. Spruill Eorbusii, Historian Pa e 19
