Class Song TUNE: Till We Meet Again Class of ’45 now wends its way In its climb to reach the top someday As we pass down life’s long road We may shoulder heavy loads, but We shall strive to do our best always And in later years we'll proudly say, “We have loved dear Wadesboro High May we meet again.” Time has come when we must say “adieu” Bid goodbye our friends and class- mates true We’ve worked hard throughout the years Shared our joys and dimmed our fears, and Mem’ries fond we've found along the way Dreams to cherish ’til a later day While we hope and pray each night That we'll meet again. SARA LOU TIMMONS CAROLINE GULLEDGE ELAINE BENNETT BILL BECK EARL HENRY Class Poem We have reached the open portals to the world, And as we gaze at the scenes beyond We know success for our class lies ahead But the victory 1s not yet won. In the days of tomorrow May we never cease to say, We have loved our school and teachers Through each and every day. And for their love and strength Which have helped us on our way May we do something worthy That will to them our debts repay. So in the bright tomorrow That ahead of us does lie We will always remember Our Dear Old Wadesboro High. And when we reach the summit Of the world for which we strive May we leave behind a memory Of the class of forty-five. BILL MULDROW Page Hight

Hass fistory CAROLINE GULLEDGE Class Historian Va SENIOR Class of 1945 stands at the fork of the broad, unexplored Hi-Way of Life. Afte r twelve years of traveling the narrow and often diffi- cult by-ways, the Seniors have made a good beginning on the greatest road of them all. They are now facing the decisive turn. Scan the pages of history written by the Seniors during the past twelve years. True, they were not breathlessly exciting years, but they were not years spent worthlessly. Every pupil has met with trials, but each has had his share of happiness and cherished memo- ries. The first few pages of the “1945 Senior Class History” give one a glimpse of the early years, when a shy group of youngsters started their trek down the Hi-Way. They were given a grand send-off by Mrs. Joe Liles and Miss Mary Plunkett. By the second year, school was not as unfamiliar. Mrs. Chase Baughn and Miss Elizabeth Webb added a liceral share of “readin’, writin’ and ’rith- metic.”” Miss Julia Cameron and Mrs. EHlea- nor Gray left a lasting impression with their third grade work. The fourth year was the last year in the grammar grade building. It passed quickly under the splendid guidance of Mrs. Ethel Bennett and Mrs. Louis Fogle- man. The next four years were exciting ones for the Class of ’45, for the members were getting accustomed to the newness of mingling with older students. They considered themselves quite “grown up” upon their arrival in the High School Building. Mrs. Heck Allen and Miss Pauline Pinkston gave them their first view into the vast unknown trails. During the sixth year, Mrs. W. W. Bennett and Miss Nora Boggan did a splendid job of broaden- ing the knowledge of the eager group. Some- thing new was added in the seventh grade— the thrilling experience of having four teach- ers and. “changing classes.” Mrs7 W.J. Page Ten
