Before parting, let us teike a last, yet pride ful look back four years ago. Imagine that we are traveling on the road to Higher Education. In the beginning of the fall of 1955 forty-four desirous Fresh- men crowded into a guided mlssle propelled by Mr. W. C. Walker, our homeroom teacher, who led us through the stages of General Science. He was assisted by Mrs. Susie Thompson, who aided us through English I. Mrs. Sherman White taught us the fundamentals of how to fit in a society, under the subject Civics. Mrs. Alma Wilson improved our etiquette by touring with us in Home Economics I. At the fifth stage of our rocket Mr. George D. Hill, Jr., acquainted us with the impor- tance of Mathematics. Mr. James McCormick, our music director, accompanied us to Wythville, Virginia, to participate in the annual district music festival. Our class officers were: Rosa Mack, Presi- dent; Maralyn Straughter, Vice-President; Robert Humbles, Secretary; Betty Bolden, Treasurer. In 1956, we climbed the rocket to orbit number two, we had lost twelve class members and gained one new one. Mrs. Susie Thompson was our homeroom teacher and she continued to guide us through English Hall II. She also took us through the thrilling hall of World History. Mrs. Wilson continued to brush up our etiquette through Home Economics. This year she taught cookery and clothing. The fashion chow was a sensational event. Mr. Hill taught us the fundamentals of Algebra, while Mr. Walker toured with us through the testing grounds of Biology.

Our officers were Robert Humbles, Presi- dent; Arthur Ligglns, Vice-President; Theda Stewart, Secretary; Marva Smith, Treasurer. Now came 1957 w® lost five more class members. Our homeroom teacher, Mrs. Sherman White, taught the fundamentals of American History. Mr. Hill guided us safely through Algebra II and Mr. McCormick took us on a tour of English III. He also led us through the thrilling hall of French I. There was cause for much excitement this year because there were two new subjects, shorthand and typewriting, taught by a new teacher Mr. J. 0. Malone. Mrs. Wilson led us through the stage of Family Life, a abject field from which we learned many important facts about life and living. The Junior Department of Home Economics held its annual Buffet Dinner. The Home Economics Department sponsored Girls and Boys Day, With Miss Joyce Wallace, speaker for the girls, and Dr. W. W. Johnson, J speaks lor the boys. The fashion show which is an annual affair was a bright success. Most of us were thrilled with our first prom. The homecoming and Daisy Dae and Lil Abner dances were successful. The class picnic at the Industrial Rayon was a gay event enjoyed by all. Our class officers were Theda Stewart, President; Jeanne Scott, Vice-President; Ida Goff, Secretary; William Harris, Treasurer; Arthur Llggins, Business Manager. At last we reacned the fourth and final stage of our orbit, which bora the sign SENIORS.” Mr, George Hill, Jr.; an old friend opened tne gate auid let us in. This was our last year on the journey. We were in the midst of the Land of Education I Once in- J i 1 5 I I CLASS COLORS CLASS FLOWER Royal Blue and White Moonlight Rose side we propelled the rocket and got a flying start with Mr. Hill behind the wheel. We went to Chemlstryville where we met another old friend, Mr. W. C. Walker. Mrs. Wilson toured with some of us through Home Economics Hall IV.

I stopped at the SMITH AND HARRIS PAINT AND BODY MISSILE STATION owned and operated by William Harris, Charles and Joe Smith, After having my ship checked, I flew over to Mars Hill, located on the Planet Mars to the LARFINIA BEAUTY SALON, where I was given beauty treatment by the famous beautician of space Larfine Barber. There I read the latest novel vrritten by the novelist and journalist William Revely. ■ I then put on my space helmet hopped the nearest cloud ' and drifted over to ?STAR CITY to the fabulous HOUSE OF GLAMOUR to see my friend, the famous designer of garmets, Ida Goff. Afterwards, I drifted over to the HOUSE OF ARTS where my portrait was painted by the famed artist Joseph Helton, I returned to my ship. While gazing through my automatic TV — whom did I see but Rosa Lee Mack, singing her latest hit tune. I decided to drop by to see Rosa. There I saw an old school pal, Arthur Ligglns, employed as the CHIEF TECHNICAL ENGINEER. I then went over to the Jupiter Airport to meet my stenographer, Lula Tyler, who was returning from the Neptune Summit Conference. There I saw GENERAL JERRY CAUL of the Air Force, Rudolph Quarles, who was employed as an aviation engineer and Larry Branche employed as a pilot, operating flight 396. I then decided to go over to the Zeus State Campus where I saw Jeannle Scott teaching Business Educa tion, Norma Cashwell and Emily Davis teaching Elementary Education, Gilbert Waldron teaching Mathe- matics and Oliver Wright conducting the School of Upholstery. From there I decided to visit the foreign fields on the vast lands of Pluto, There I saw my friend, Robert Humbles who was a missionary to the people. I then visited St. John ' s Cathedral in Cloudsville. I saw and heard none other than the great concert artist as guest soloist Jean Holloway. Afterwards, I went over to the Metropolitan Opera House where I saw Warner Hunter conduct the ssnnphony orchestra and heard none other Maralyn Straughter sing the role of AIDA. Having grown weary from the coolness of the day I set in orbit to Walter Reed Hospital located in the Little Dipper where my case was diagnosed by Dr. Marva Jean Smith and her Assistant Nurses: Cassandra Mack, Doris lAnbles, Barbara Haskins, and Rebecca Pleasant. As I decided to come back to earth, I stopped on the planet Neptune. There I visited Rose ' s Pharmacy where my prescriptions were filled by the well-known phanaadst, Thomas Rose MARALYN STRAUGHTER i CAN William Harris Norma Cashwell William Revely Cassandra Mack Thomas Rose Ida Goff Gilbert Waldron Rebecca Pleasant Emily Davis Charles Smith Jean Holloway Joe Smith Marva Smith Jerry Caul Larfine Barber Joseph Helton Doris Umbles Arthur Liggins Mayalyn Straughter Rudolph Quarles Jeannie Scott Robert Humbles Oliver Wright Rosa Lee Mack Warner Hunter L la Tyler Larry Branch YOU imagine?
