Text from Pages 1 - 204 of the 1951 volume:

N One(4Aa% t As you turn through the pages of this book, may you wander once more through the memories of the past years, recalling the happiest hours, the best-loved scenes, the valued friends, and may the pictures which we have chosen help to make your m emories more vivid throughout the passing years. 1 - V’ t I ■I • ■ 1 t f [4 t 4 ft THctfto u uK The Class of 1951 prepares this annual in memory of our beloved classmate, Jo Ann Corbett. Jo Ann was fatally injured while playing ball at her home on March 19, 1943. Her death occured during our fourth year in school. As we graduate, we shall be thinking of her and her memory will linger with us during the remainder of our travels through life. ■r in . 1 ... Occ% Mr. Whittenton, new to our school this year, is by no means new to the field of education. He attended Campbell College, re¬ ceived his A.B. from the Univer¬ sity of North Carolina, and later received his M.A. from the Uni¬ versity of North Carolina. He taught in the following schools before coming to Wakelon: Dublin, Bridgeton, Wake Forest, Cary, Charles B. Aycock, and Ifetthews. In addition to his duties as principal, he led the Wakelon girls ' basketball team. We, the Senior Class, shall always remember his words of guidance that he gave us during the year that he was our leader. To you—the Editor, Sponsor, and staff of this Wak-igh-an, I ex¬ tend for myself and the entire school, our heartiest congratulations. Yours is a fine book, one to be proud of, and one which brings credit to our school. Your class is a capable one and many of you have unusual talents which when properly developed will enable you to make worthvdiile con¬ tributions to this world in which you live. You are learning those ideals and principles here in school that will carry over into adult life. We hope and feel that you will make us proud that we have had a part in the training which helps you to be better able to take your places as good citizens in tom orrow ' s society. Your graduation from high school comes at a time when the whole world is in a confused state. No one knows just what the future holds in store. The problems confronting us are a real chaise nge to our best thought and action. It will be your duty, to help share the re¬ sponsibilities and help make the decisions in the imcertain future. Future responsibilities will demand consecrated effort and thought. I would urge you to continue your training. In saying Adieu, I would leave you with this thought from Henry Van Four things a man must learn to do If he would keep his record true; To think without confusion clearly; To love his fellow-men sincerely; To act from honest motives purely. To trust in God and Heaven securely. 0 IP ' Sdcccatcatt On behalf of the faculty and the student body, we take this means of saying THANK YOU to the Board of Education for its part in helping to make the school year of 1950-1951 one of the most suc¬ cessful and happiest of Wakelon Public School.

CAROL GILLIAM FLOYD FARRINGTON Se tOyi On September 3, 1947, carefree and green freshmen boarded the High School Ship for the far-away port of Knowledge. We had had, as yet, few trying experiences on the Sea of Learning, It did not take us long to realize that there were seamen on our ship who were more experienced than we--the Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, they called themselves. We organized our class and chose as president, Herbert Privette, Other oarsmen who were chosen to help guide our vessel over the rough Sea of Learning were: vice-president, Joellen Gill and secretary, Aileen Baker, During the first part of our voyage on board the High School Ship, parties were given us by our grade-parents. When the summons was heard a few months later, a large num¬ ber of boys and girls entered athletics; but we saved our letters and stars for another trip. Under the very efficient leadership of Miss Frances Thackston, our homeroom teacher, Mr. Fred Smith, our principal, and other members of the faculty, we entered on May 29, 1948, the port of Freshman Vacation, a happier and a wiser crew. After three months of much needed rest, we were eager to get on board our ship again. On this voyage we had a new captain--Miss Irma Walker, Our crew numbered thirty-three, and we organized again under the following leadership: president, Nellie Medlin; vice-president, Laura Jean Massey; and secretary. Tommy Temple. This was a a glorious year. We made the other classes realize that we were capable of hard work and of taking a leading part in real sports. Prominence did not by any means stop here, for we took a very decided lead in scholarship. When we had crossed the waters that lay between the port of Freshman Vacation and Sophomore Vacation, we hailed into the latter for the purpose of taking on food and fuel. After our ship had remained three months in the port of Sophomore Vacation, we began our voyage again with a crew of thirty. For this part of our voyage, the following officers rendered us their efficient services: Joellen Gill, president; Herbert Privette, vice-president; and Jimmie Green, treasurer. We had our same captain. Miss Irma Walker. Some of our classmates were still interested in sports. We also showed inter¬ est in other activities—Glee Club, F.H.A., Journalism, andF.F.A. We had our play, A Ready Made Family, the receipts of which went toward the Junior-Senior banquet. After the next stop had been made, we entered upon thelast part of our voyage. We were nothing less than High and Mighty Seniors. Early in the year our class organized with the following officers in charge of steering our vessel; president, Wayne Bobbitt; vice-president, Nellie Medlin; secretary, Warren Green; and treasurer, Jimmie Green. We organized with thirty me mbers. Upon us dropped the responsibility of editing the annual, of setting an example for the lower classmen, and of becoming recipients of senior privileges. This year we had the same captain--and a very good one--Miss Irma Walker. We struggled with Math, History, English, Economics and Typing courses until it seemed as if we should have nervous prostration; but, behold! just in front of us--our reward I The faculty found great pleasure in accompanying the class of 1951 over the rough waters of the Sea of Learning. Their greatest delight was to give pop tests. These tests were both as unexpected and as disastrous as the Culex mosquito in the Sahara desert. The little green grade books of our teachers testified to this statement. Our trip to Washington was wonderful. We also enjoyed the nice parties given us by our grade-parents and our mascot ' s parents. Mon May 30, 1951, we completed our voyage through one part of the Sea of Learn¬ ing and received as spoils of this adventure our high school diplomas. Some of the most outstanding happenings in our school lives DIDN ' T happen on the school grounds. We recall a few such incidents: the day we cleaned up the gym after the Junior-Senior Banquet while in Raleigh; the time we were supposed to be attending Career Day but spent part of our time shopping; the night a certain boy got sick from eating too many chicken salad sandwiches when the Wendell-Wakelon game was rained out; the day Miss Palmer ' s Home Economics building turned out to be a dancing room; when George ' s pick-em-up was loaded with logs and girls for the Junior Senior; the time a certain girl almost pulled a man ' s hand off trying to borrow a red flag; the day a group of girls asked to be sent to the office for no reason at all; why two boys had to make friends with a cow in order to borrow a chicken for a class party; the night a mo¬ lasses truck collision resulted in molasses being spattered all over our steps; and the night two certain people had to drink all of the punch. Whew, what a mess we were! Since history records the work of the great, this document may well be called a history. For were we not illustrious, seafaring students, struggling as many others have struggled before us ? Certainly one will grant that every task assigned to us was performed as faithfully as could have been expected from a class of boys and girls who were equal¬ ly interested in class work, sports, and every form of diversion. Phoebe Williams Class Historian Smc n 70tU .We the members of the Senior Class in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty-one, A.

C. ■ May 31. 1961 Dear Miss Walker, Can you really believe it has been ten years since we were at Wakelon High School? It seems only yesterday that the members of the Class of 51 were talking about what they would do in life. Many of these adolescent dreams have come true, but many of us find ourselves doing things for which we never thought we were fitted. 1 saw Becky Honeycutt the first of the month. She let me have all the latest goings- on of the class, but she didn ' t even mention the fact that she now owns and operates Zebulon ' s only taxi. Becky told me that B.B.Barham, who has taken the late A1 Jolson ' s place, is making a fortune singing the latest smash hit, Pappy. Since Wayne Bobitt and Nellie Medlin talk so much with their hands, they have opened a school for the deaf in Wakefield. Well, Aileen Baker certainly fooled me. Instead of becoming a teacher--which she could easily have been--she ' s editor of the newspaper in Lizard Lick. Frances Raybon Pullen has secured a job as a Powers Model. You can see her on television every night. She models night gowns. Curiosity having gotten the better of her. Fay Gill is now spending all her time searching beaches, looking for a wooden box with the Thing in it. Zebulon ' s most eligible bachelor is George Massey since he has amassed millions making tobacco sticks. Guess who’s chief surgeon at Mayo Clinic? None other than Charles Allen Weathers- iby! Justine Hicks has been chosen as Miss Pin Up of 1961 by Pilot ' s softball team. Herbert Privette has just finished at State College, having finally learned what a plumber ' s friend is. It seems that Emma Ruth Pace has taken the place of one of our faculty members. Emma Ruth now teaches bookkeeping and typing in the place of Mrs. Privette. After waiting two years for Juanna Joy to finish high school, K. D. Lloyd is now waiting for her to finish college. Phoebe Williams has fulfilled her life long ambition. She ' s secretary to the Chinese delegate, Mr. High Lung-Hung Low. Jimmy Green is kept so busy trading in cars that he never has time to date Carol. Since he has failed as a pharmacist. Tommy Temple has returned to his old job-- jerking sodas for Mr. Young. Joellen Gill and Warren Green are basketball coaches naturally. Where??? At Frog Hop High School, Hind Leg, North Carolina. It is rumored that Betsy Simpson is going to be the President’s campaign manager. Peter Combs has just returned from his summer vacation which he spent on Mars. Mr. Appenzeller hired Bobby Doyle as assistant football coach when Billy Pippin quit the job. Einstein ' s secret has finally leaked out. We find that he has been getting all his information from Wilber Boykin. t •i ■ ' ll r. T «• . 5 � |l • - ♦ r I. = Miss Walker, do you remember how Bobby Kitchings used to say he ' d just be an educated bum? I should have known better, but I wasn ' t at all surprised to find that he is now wayback for Notre Dame. Of course, he had to change his name a little. He ' s now known as Joseppi Yockaholyvich. Aleigh Perry has been nominated as Canada ' s No. 1 tobacco curer. Laura Pearce is an old maid and runs a nursery school in Rolesville. Since he can talk so much faster, Janis Pittman has pushed Bill Stern out of his job. Robert Earl Pearce has become a success almost overnight. He has invented a pair of skates that can be put in reverse. These were made especially for backward children. Laura Jean Massey has just recently had a joke book published. Be sure to get a copy. It contains all the jokes that she was never able to catch. Mavis Bunn has been kidnapped bythe Russians. She is being exhibited in Moscow as the only American woman Who knows when to keep her mouth shut. As for me--I spent ten years at Johns Hopkins studying to be a nurse. I ' m now em¬ ployed at the Zebulon Clinic--scrubbing floors. Well, there it is. Teacher, the goals achieved by the class of ' 51. We really didn ' t do so badly, did we? We caused a lot of gray hairs to be added to the noble heads of the faculty, but we meant well with all our noise and wise cracks. We were a happy lot and still are. We could always find something at which to laugh. As long as one can do that, one pretty much has the world by the tail already. I remember that as graduation night drew near, I suspected that many of us would have complaints about the future; but, by now, I feel that we can only have a deep feeling of contentment for the success that has come to us. It hasn ' t been easy. We had many good opportunities, but they usually come disguised as hard work. Best Wishes, Shirley Chamblee Class Prophet IN APPRECIATION We of the Senior class will always be grateful to Mr. Fred Smith for his patience in assisting us during our high school career. We feel that we shall be better citizens for having been associated with him, and we are glad to have this opportunity to ex- prexx to him our appreciation. SetUm PARTING THOUGHTS As time has passed and we have come To the end of our high school days, We know that we must journey on Throughout life’s future ways. But in our hearts we ' ll all hold dear, Our days at Wakelon High, Our treasured moments in the past. And years that have drifted by. We ' ll remember, too, with thankful hearts The teachers who have helped us through When days seemed long and dreary. And when our hopes were all so few . They ' ve been our guiding light throughout Our Wakelon High School days; And teachers nowhere in the world Could ever take their place. And now to our parents we ' d like to say As our time is drawing nigh, You ' ve held the torch and led us on Through days of toil and strife. Our thanks to you for all you’ve done; You’ve helped us on our way. We’ll ne’er forget the guiding hands And kindly words you ' ve had to say. And now as we bid our last farewell. There ' s an aching in our heart; For we know we ' ll miss the dear old school And friends now as we part.
