It was the devout conviction of these earnest men that beings cast in His image are endowed with certain inalienable rights. And that the group judgment of His creatures is more adequate for wise government than are the minds of any individuals among them. The sustaining roots of this tree are Freedom of Speech, of Religion, and the Press. From the time the first slender stem emerged upward, until now that a great tree reaches its branches in majesty toward the sky, these freedoms have fed the growing nation with nourishing education.

As we go on along the way, we will think each day Of the times we’ve spent in high school. Yes, we have worked so hard and now that school is over We've come to get our just reward. We'll miss our Alma Mater and our friends, Knowing that someday we’ll meet again. When there comes a test, we all will strive to do our best. Tho’ tears fill each heart— Class of ’forty-six must part. So we’re saying with a sigh—‘‘Farewell to dear old Wadesboro High.” BARBARA COVINGTON FRANCES Davis Mary Lou STREATER TRUETTE BURRIS O.U Re CA eI eEINIGIE The time is nigh when we must bid A fond adieu to school days sweet. As the portals of life are opened unto us, Are we prepared new friends to meet? New thoughts, new tasks, new cause for wonder ; Can we seek them all without blunder? As we leave our past for a greater future, Have we reached the goal we've strived to attain, With honest toil, with uplifted head Our characters without a stain? Can we entwine our book-learned knowl- edge With lessons learned in nature’s college? If, in these tasks we have not stumbled, Nor fallen by the narrow way, Our bravest hopes, our brightest joys Can come to life, be what they may. And being all in word and deed In trust with God, we shall succeed! WALTER MITCHELL MOR EO n He who would rise above the clouds must scale the heights alone.

History MARGARET ANN WINGATE Class Historian Foe the Senior Class of 1946, the day is in sight about which they have dreamed for twelve long years—their day ot graduation. Very soon now they will walk out the doors of Wadesboro High, not in the capac- ity of students any longer, but as men and wo- men ready to face Life and what it has in store for them. Now that this long-desired, impatient- ly-awaited event approaches, nevertheless, they find a certain amount of sadness, as well as happiness, in the prospect of leaving High School forever. They stand now at the turn in the road; each must choose for himself what his life will be. The past twelve years in the lives of these Seniors have not been idly spent or wasted. True, it seemed at times that all effort was in vain, but much has really been accomplished. Now they are ready for something bigger, requiring more effort and more skill. The events of past years have fitted perfectly into the pattern for the later lives of the students who will graduate from Wadesboro High School this spring. The history of the Class of ’46 is not a very exciting one, yet, one can read between the writ- ten lines the heartaches and joys that have been parts of their school days. One day in early September, in the year 1934, this history began as a group of frightened youngsters took their seats in the classrooms of Mrs. Joe Liles, Miss Mary Plunkett, and Miss Ann Little Massamore. The next year finds them progressing nicely un- der the leadership of Mrs. Chase Baughn and Mrs. W. L. McKinnon, During their third year in school, they began an entirely new subject called “English” under the capable guidance of Miss Julia Cameron and Mrs. Eleanor Gray. The fourth school year of the Class of ’46 is memorable to them because at that time they met the long-dreaded “fractions.” These, how- ever, proved to be extremely simple when ex- plained by such grand teachers as Mrs. Louis Fogleman and Miss Eva Huntley. Now these boys and girls had progressed to the point where they might advance to classes in the high school building—one great milestone in their school career. These young people found it very exciting to be in such a big building with real “high school” people. It wasn’t very long, however, before the 46 Seniors felt themselves well acquainted with the new building, introduced to them by Miss Pauline Pinkston and Mrs. Heck Allen in the fifth grade. The group passed through their sixth year of schooling quickly with Mrs. W. W.

Jestament We, the Senior Class of 1946, sadly aware of the fact that our days in Wadesboro High School are num- bered, presumedly being of sound mind and body, do hereby make, execute, and publish this, our last will and testament. To Mr. Terrell, our superintendent, who with his never ending sense of humor, has so patiently borne the trials and tribulations which come from having such a class as we, do leave our sincere thanks for his genu- ine interest in our welfare. To Mr. Robinson, our principal, we leave the large number of permits he has so graciously written for our many trips to town and our gratitude for his help in our undertakings. To Miss Sturgis, our friend and advisor, we leave our fondest love and appreciation for her guiding hand during our Senior year. To the faculty members we leave the peace of mind which inevitably follows our departure. To the Junior Class we bequeath our beloved home- room—may you treat it kindly; and our front steps privilege—may you keep it your privilege. To the Sophomore Class we leave the many problems which will comfort you with next year’s Junior-Senior. To the Freshman Class we leave our hopes that yours will be a great Class of 49. The following Seniors have unselfishly relinquished the following traits: I, Sarah Gray, do leave to Louise Anderson my cheery smile and sweet disposition. I, “Captain” Burris, do leave my hearty laugh to G. E. Knowles. I, Louise Moore, do leave my ability to take short- hand to Jeanette Long. I, “Bunk” Hill, do leave my varied assortment of lines to Neale Kelly. I, Lula Stanback, do leave to the next Hi-Ways’ business manager the headaches which come with find- ing all the bottles left in the gym after each basketball game. I, Mary Lou Streater, do leave my punctuality to Betty Ann Wall. We, Catherine Watkins and Margaret Ann Wingate, do leave our studious minds to Betty Ruth Gaddy and Ann Lindsey. I, Charles Horne, do leave my height to Tommy Johnson so he may look up to women instead of down on them. I, Clifton Harkey, do leave to Jimmy Clark, and any other “sleepy heads,’ my favorite sleeping place in the library. I, Lou Huntley, do leave my naturally blonde hair to Dora Mae Bates. We, Barbara Covington, Frances Davis, and Lula Stanback, do leave our places in the Senior Class and our never ending giggles to Agnes Crawford and Rosa Little. I, Betty Lou Martin, do leave my job at Roses to anyone who wants it. I, Ernest Wallace, do leave my size to Dervis Thomas. FRANCES DAVIS TESTATOR I, Jack Anderson, do leave my desire for an “‘ideal girl” to Bill Hough. I, Lois Paxton, do leave my reputation of being the first engaged Senior to the Junior girl who can do as well. I, “Shorty” Baker, do leave my ability to find a “Secluded spot”? to H. M. Maples. I, Harold Edwards, do leave to ‘‘Hook” Coggin my love for “out-of-town” women. I, “Mog” Griffin, do leave my vast and unending supply of corny jokes to Brookie Craft. I, Mary James, do leave to Lu Overton my puzzled expressions at any questions asked. I, Fulton Tucker, do leave Lois Jean to the Senior boys of next year. I, Rose Marsh, do leave my knack for asking dumb questions to Rosa Little. I, Jerry Lee, do leave the names and addresses of all the boys I have collected during my life time to “Bobbie” Odom. We, Peggy Lewis and Joyce Stafford, do leave our contagious laughter to Carol Dean Jenrette, and Louise Covington. I, “Sammie” Boswell, do leave my way of chewing gum to Billie Jean Greene. I, Estelle Brower, do leave my love for men to Frances Burns. I, Anna Jane Ingram, do leave my job of keeping the lunch line quiet to the Student Council member who can knock the students down and make them be- have. I, Jack Mangum, do leave my little brother, Bobby, and my car for the girls to fight over. I, Donald Gray, do leave to Jimmy Ferguson my book, “How To Win Friends and Influence People.” I, Davis Gaddy, do leave my quiet manner to ‘‘Coot” Huntley. I, Mamie Thompson, do leave my nimble fingers to Dora Mae Bate. I, Bill Treadaway, do leave my A. P. O. address to all the girls in High School. I, Walter Mitchell, do leave my ability to make extemporaneous speeches to Bill Taft. I, Joyce Stafford, do leave my ability to draw to Cherrie Pratt. I, Frances Davis, leaving my love and best wishes for all those we leave behind, do hereby set my hand and seal on this the thirty-first day of May, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and forty- six. THE CLaAss OF 1946. Page Twenty MARY LOU STREATER PROPHET After my recent tour of this country, I find it very difficult for me to step back into the daily routine of work here in my office. My mind continuously wan- ders back over the interesting and exciting sites and experiences that filled that one short month that I shall never forget. I was amazed to find that the mem- bers of the Class of 746 have become so distinguished in the various fields of life. I can easily recall the day that I started to board my plane at the Washington airport. I glanced into the cockpit and recognized Bobby Blackwelder to be one of the pilots. As I started walking down the aisle of the plane, whom should I run into other than Margaret Griffin and Harold Edwards. We immediate- ly found seats together and began our ‘Gosh, it’s good to see you” conversation. I later found out that Harold has become a very outstanding lawyer and that ‘‘Mog”’ is his secretary. He was en route to Chicago to investigate the mysterious case of “Frisky” Davis, one of Power’s Models, who had recently dis- appeared. The time came too soon for us to depart and I was traveling alone once more. My next stop was New York. I spent the night in the “Sleepytime Hotel,” a very modern hotel owned and operated by Jack Mangum. Jack informed me that Sarah Gray was to make her debut at Metropolitan Opera House the fol- lowing week. As I crossed the lobby, I saw Estelle Brower operating the switch board. The “Skyroom” was located on the top floor of the ‘‘Sleepytime,” and I was amazed to find ‘Bunk’ Hill and his orchestra playing there. Before I left, Truette Burris, the vo- calist, sang “Stardust,” which brought to mind our class song. The next morning while waiting for my plane, I read an article in a newspaper about an unknown element that had been discovered by Lula Stanback. It seems that Lula has done outstanding work in the scientific field. In California, I visited one of my old friends, Anna Jane Ingram, who has become a brain specialist in the “Getwell” hospital in Los Angeles. Margaret Ann Page (lass Prophecy. Wingate and Catherine Watkins are nurses and Geraldine Lee is a dietitian in the same hospital. While shopping, Anna took me to the “Thompson Shoppe,’ Mamie Ella Thompson’s noted dress shop that is connected with Betty Lou Martin’s “Hat Shoppe.” Before leaving California, I stopped in Hollywood and saw “Lou” Huntley. She is gradually climbing to the top in her motion picture career. Co-starring with her in her latest picture ‘Come To Baby” produced by Earnest Wallace, is today’s Clark Gable, Bill Tread- away. “Lou” told me that Frances Boswell was her very capable hair dresser. Jack Anderson is also cimbing in the movie world as a dancer. I also managed to speak with the noted playwright, Walter Mitchell, for a few minutes. I traveled by train through the state of Texas, and I was much impressed by Clifton Harkey’s huge and lovely ranch that is used as the setting for many mo- tion pictures. Mary John James was on the same train with me. I learned much about several of my other classmates through her. Mary John and Peggy Lewis are head of a Kindergarten in Louisiana; Mrs. Lois (Paxton) Maness, is a dress designer; and Louise Moore is a commercial teacher there. My last and most interesting stop, of course, was Wadesboro, Passing through the business section, I saw the “Three B’s,”’ a very up-to-date clothing store own- ed by Fulton Tucker, and ‘“‘Baker’s Streamline Co.” (“Shorty” Baker had just invented the newest and fastest type of automobile, the “STREAMLINE”’). I saw one of the most exciting football games played in the Wadesboro Stadium. Donald Gray was the sports’ announcer and gave a very accurate account of the “A-Right 4 Play” that was used very often by the vic- torious team, coached by “Shine” Huntley. I spent my last day visiting at dear ole W. H. S. and found many of her old students among the fac- ulty members. As I entered the building, Rose Marsh, the commercial teacher, and Barbara Covington, the public school music teacher, greeted me. Joyce Staf- ford is the art teacher, and Davis Gaddy and Charles Horne are head of the “Shop.”’ I passed by the Senior homeroom—a nd as I stood looking in, I could vaguely see every member of the class of ’46 in his usual place and our beloved advisor, Miss Sturgis, who did much to prepare us for our long journey ahead. And now, ten years later, I can truly say—‘We have missed our Alma Mater and our friends, and we’re still praying that some day—we’ll meet again. But until that day, all of us will continue to strive to do our best.” Mary Lov SrtreaTer, Prophet Twenty-One Bid ye Page Twenty-Two Three wenty T Pa ve ge Secretary and Treasurer Paul Adcock Louise Anderson Lois Jean Ashcraft Dora Mae Bates Rosa Birmingham Hampton Boyette Francis Burns Eleanor Burr Jimmy Clark Herbert Coggin Mollie Coley Louise Covington Agnes Crawford Robert Curlee Shannon Davidson Jimmie Ferguson Betty Ruth Gaddy CLASS ROLL Billie Jean Greene Callie Lillie Hanna Tommy Hart Niley Hill Bill Hough Herbert Jarman Carol Dean Jenrette Betty Jerman Carl Jones Neale Kelly G.

Freedom is a living, growing aspiration in men’s souls. It must continue to grow, else it withers. Freedom in America has been growing for more than five generations. With each generation the growing light in men’s minds has revealed new freedoms our forefathers never dreamed of: Freedom from barriers of distance and of time—an entire nation on wheels; miracle machines that speed information to metal, to paper, to minds; remote hamlets linked by telephone and radio; freedom from many old drudgeries that electricity now performs for us; the freedoms of a multitude of comforts and conveniences; and of better health. All this has come about in a nation dedicated to the divine concept of the equality of man and under the blazing light of complete freedom of speech and the press—the only illumination in which minds can grow in knowledge and vision. Here a scant six per cent of humankind, with no greater gifts than others, has progressed so far toward many freedoms that the path followed and the results are an inspiration to hopeful peoples everywhere. The way is not easy. It is narrow. It is sometimes rough. Other paths beckon alluringly, as seem- ing shortcuts. But in mankind’s halting progress through the ages many paths have been explored before. If now in uncertainty we change paths we will slow up progress and confuse those whose eyes are on us. By further smoothing of the proved path we can continue to inspire earnest men everywhere to follow the way that already has led one nation so far toward the better and happier life for all.

In shadows beyond the threshold we can see dimly the shapes of hard days to come. Difficult days and many problems for our own America. Still darker days for millions of destitute and starving, in lands left charred by total war. In the days ahead, our first task is to speed the crushing of ruthless, cruel tyranny and oppression . then help to restore to all men, here and elsewhere, the dignity of full freedom. Freedom for each man to order his own life in peaceful ways, without fear of fellow man. Freedom to work and to earn his daily bread. Freedom for each to aspire . with opportunity measured only by endeavor. The light that leads to freedoms is FREEDOM OF THE PRESS: all kinds . . . news of all that transpires understanding. Education . . . information of . and the open discussion of opinions and ideas, that sharpens Complete freedom of speech and of the press is the light that builds understanding, helping all man- kind to advance onward and upward, through the opening door of each tomorrow.

We shall not, must not forget what they did, for it is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they fought and thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of free- dom—and that the government of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth. Page Forty-One (Continued from page 10) Bennett and Miss Norah Boggan to point the way. The seventh grade was very happy indeed to this eager group of boys and girls. Having classes under two teachers, Miss Lillian Cunn- ingham and Mrs. W. J. Guddedge was an en- tirely new and wonderful experience. The Class of °46 felt very much “grown-up” when, upon reaching the eighth grade, they discovered that they were to have four teachers: Miss Kathleen Morris, Coach Howell, Miss Olive Kirby, and Miss Mildred Allen. Also during this year they met Miss Hermine Caraway (as _ substitute teacher) who was later to figure prominently in the history of their high school days. At the completion of the eighth grade, they were now ready for the greatest experience of all—High School. Having safely obtained their diplomas from Junior High, the group advanced timidly to their Freshman year. This year, directed by Miss Elizabeth Johnson, Miss Marian Craig, Mrs. Tom Wall, Miss Olive Kirby, Mr. W. F. Warlick, Coach Shelton, and Mr. Shelly Cashion, will always be remembered as one of great hap- piness. The Sophomore year of the 46 Seniors is equally as memorable as all the others. They worked hard but willingly, directed by: Miss Octavia Temple, Miss Betty Mintz , Miss Herm- ine Caraway, Mrs. Tom Wall, Mrs. Robert Smith, Miss Blanche Banta, Mr. Cashion, and Mr. Al Paling. As Juniors, the Class of ’46 took on new dig- nity and assumed new responsibilities. Their leaders were: Miss Caraway, Miss Mintz, Miss Banta, Mrs. George Miller, Mr. Hix, and Mr. W. B. Terrell (Principal). Under the directiou of Miss Caraway, the class successfully carried out their plans for a wonderful ‘“Junior-Senior,” which they will never forget. Also, they suc- cessfully presented their Junior Play entitled, “Introducin’ Susan.” At the completion of the 1944-45 term, Mr. V. W. Lewis resigned as Superintendent and Mr. Terrell took his place. Now we come to the final lap of the journey for the Class of 46. At the beginning of their Senior year, they were greeted by a new Prin- cipal, Mr. B. P. Robinson. This last year has been made worthwhile through the efforts of Miss Carrie Sturgis, Mrs. Wall, Mrs. G. K. Craig, Mr. Hix, Mr. and Mrs. B. P. Robinson, Mrs. L. A. Weddington, Miss Frances Moore, and Mr. Paling. Their Senior year has meant a great deal to the Class of ’46. It has summed up their school career in one grand conclusion. The timid youngsters who began school in 1934 are now full-grown men and women, ready: to face the future. When each member of this Senior Class walks across the stage to receive his diploma from the hands of his Superinten- dent, he will do it proudly, knowing that with this preparation he need never fear the future years that stretch before him. Page Forty-Two mm 4 = rE. i : x We me Win! Te iS ee ja wi (IW itt afi [il {It W ! I = We shall be on the way to winning the peace if, now that war is over, America needs to run more “help wanted” advertisements than “situations wanted.” That will be the case then if thirty million families have been made to want new products of American industry, and start buying them. For in- stance, a generation ago people had not the slightest interest in tomato juice, or radios, or electric refrig- erators. There were not such things. When people finally learned of these products they did not rush to buy them. Continuous, hard-selling advertising by many manufacturers and dealers had to create these vast businesses. Now as never before in history, America needs advertising. We need it to keep old wants alive, to create additional wants, to make men and women dream hopefully of owning conveniences that today are only on manufacturer’s drawing boards. Consistent advertising can render still another valuable service. Advertising revenue has made our newspapers and magazines inexpensive, so that millions can buy them. It has enabled publishers to build up nation-wide and world-wide staffs of expert reporters and writers on many subjects. Thus it has helped to multiply the educational force of America’s free press. Advertising and the free press, as a team, have helped our nation approach ever closer to the fuller, better life—a beacon light to the rest of the world.
