MARGIE CARTER Historian The history of the class of 1948 is not com- plete; but only beginning. Graduation day does not mean that their work is finished; it means it has just begun. The members of the class of 1948 will keep on making history. However, we do set down herein the history of our class during its twelve years in the Wadesboro schools. The class who entered the first grade in 1936 as frightened youngsters, had as their teachers Mrs. Joe Liles, Miss Mary Plunkett, Miss Ann Little Masemore, and Mrs. Lee Ashcraft. The next year their knowledge was increased under the capable guidance of Mrs. Chase Baughn, Mrs. W. L. McKinnon, and Miss Neill. During their third and fourth years, they began new sub- jects which were very easy under the leadership of Mrs. Eleanor Gray, Miss Neill, Miss Alice Lampley, Miss Barbara Weir, and Miss Julia Cameron. To go to the high school building was very exciting for these boys and girls. By this time they had learned what school was really like. Their patient teachers for the fifth grade were Miss Pauline Pinkston and Mrs. Heck Allen. In the sixth grade, these boys and girls learned the fundamentals of grammar and of decimal fractions under the leadership of Miss Nora Boggan and Mrs. W. W. Bennett. Mrs. W. J. Gulledge and Miss Lillian Cunningham prepared them to enter Junior High during their seventh year. Note books and more note books were made! In the eighth grade, they took up the subject of art under the direction of Miss Drucilla Tice and Miss Mary Mitchell. At the close of that year, the class was graduated into high school. Class History The next year was very different for these boys and girls. They had never experienced chang- ing classes before and were a little confused for the first few days, as freshmen. Their teachers during their freshman year were Miss Blanche Banta, Mr. W. N. Hix, Mrs. George Miller, and Mrs. Tom Wall. Some of the class began to take part in various activities such as basketball, the Booster’s Club, and newspaper writing. Now that they had learned the principles of high school, they became sophomores under Mr. W. N. Hix, Mrs. B. P. Robinson, Mrs. G. K. Craig, Mrs. Elsie Lee Carricker, Mrs. L. A. Weddington, Miss Fran- ces Moore, Miss Hermine Caraway, and Mr. Al Paling. The Junior year in Miss Caraway’s room was a happy one for these boys and girls. They were kept busy every minute with various activities of school life. The most outstanding event of this year was the Junior-Senior Banquet which had for its theme a “Circus”. This class also presented a play entitled “Redheaded Royalty from Arkansas”. Many of the boys played football and helped the Tigers win the Eastern Confer- ence championship. That year one-third of the class made the scholarship honor roll. Bobby Burroughs, a member of our class, had enough units to graduate at the end of the junior year. Not only did he have enough units, but he had a higher average than anyone in the Senior class and therefore he was valedictorian for commence- ment. Betty Grey Harrington was chief marshal for commencement and the citizenship cup was awarded to Daisy Ruth Faulkner. The represen- tatives for Girls’ State were Daisy Ruth Faulk- ner, Betty Grey Harrington, Betty Smith and Mary Smith. All the cheerleaders elected for 1947-1948 were members of our class. We were fortunate to have Mr. Wildermuth return as prin- cipal after several years service overseas. Miss Hermine Caraway, Miss Mary Alice Turner, Miss Norma Smoak, Mrs. G. K. Craig, Miss Laura Shaw Atkinson, Mr. Al Paling, Mrs. Sam Milton, and Coach Shelton were our teachers. (Continued on Page 48) Page 21
