We have tried and tried to find out but no one seems to know. One day as I was reading a pocketbook. I came upon a very enlightening quotation: “Fools names, like fool’s faces, always appear in public places.” That’s it! The newspaper! Surely we could find out something about the Seniors in the newspapers- perhaps in the Rogue’s Gallery, or the Lost and Found ads, and perhaps even in the crossword puzzles. Several of the Juniors of ‘48 got out their old 1958 newspapers and this is what they found: Louisville, Ky„ Dec. 2—Kenneth Ebert, wealthy boot- legger, escapes from jail today taking Sheriff White- cotton’s wife with him. Advertisement . . . Miss Joann Poole, owner of the Lonely Hearts Club, wishes to announce that she is not married but would like to be. Lost and Found ... A small set of white false teeth, slightly worn. Click and snap when chewing and kissing. Calling Ardell Rivers, tooth collector, at 10-F-40. Hollywood Movie News . . . Everyone disregarded the “No Admittance signs today as Natalia Hodg- kin took a bubble bath screen-test for Cecil DeMille. Even the studio censor. Bill Machledt, was on hand just to see that Miss Hodgkin’s bubbles didn't slip. The Society of Tall Tales has finally announced its list of winners for the biggest catches of the year. Miss Della Mae Tolliver was awarded the first prize for her ability to catch the biggest suckers with the shortest line. Page F.lcven

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY After the first school bell had rung in the fall of 1936, little feet echoed through the hall of Waveland School. These small lads and lassies were starting out on the most important journey of their fixes. They started on only a narrow path, hut each succeeding year the path grew broader. On the morning of September 7. 1936, Miss Moore sat waiting and wondering what was in store for her during the next eight months. Soon appeared these little lads and lassies -eighteen of us. When she finally was able to get us to tell her, she learned that our names were: Frank Allen Jr.. Billy Gotten. Leland Crumly, Ray- mond Deere. Donald Gilliland, Martha Ann Haves. Natalia Hodgkin, Marilyn Jackson, Ruth Johnson. Kay Lloyd. Dorene Miller. Mary Vir- ginia Priebe, Cloyd Short. Herbert Shuler. Della Mae Tolliver. Martha Jo Walker Robert Wheel- er. and Pauline Whelchel. Eileen Smith entered about two weeks later, September 16. from At- tica. Ruth Johnson withdrew October 16. be- cause of illness. Donald Gilliland left us Octo- ber 30. From November to April these following lads and lassies entered our class: Bobbv Eugene Killon. Nita lean Tabor, Robert Simms, and Marv Louise McDonald making a total of 19 at the end of the first vear. When we came back the second year, there was Miss Moore still waiting—no—we didn’t all fail, but she was going to be our second grade teacher, too. At the beginning of this vear. three students failed to return to be with us. They were Leland Crumly. Ravmond Deere, and Kay Lloyd. However, to offset the loss, we added four new members, namelv: Marion Crumly, Charles Gradv. Charles R. Peyton, and Kav Webb. Later. September 27. rdell Rivers entered from Greene Township. On October 8, Robert Wheeler withdrew and October 12, Mary Louise McDonald left us for Clayton. Decem- ber 17, Jean Tabor also withdrew and entered Creencastle. The third year we moved a little farther down the hall. Mrs. Etta Evans was our teacher this time. This year our class consisted of 17 students until Kav Webb withdrew March 31. The fourth year: Big Event!! Brown’s Valley school closed, sending us four students, namely: Lowell Harbison, Ralph Williams. William Rid- dell, and Maxine Crowe. September 25, Gene Gibson entered; November 15. David Farlev withdrew. Donald Miller cam' November 27. and Billie Isaacs on February 26. David Far- ley returned March 29. so at the end of the year Mrs. Evans l ad 26 of us to keep an eye on—the greatest number we had during our 12 years. The fifth year Mrs. Grimes guided us along our journey. During the summer w- lost David Farley, Donna Jean Goff. Charles Gradv, Wil- liam Riddell, and Eugene Miles. November 12. Gene Gibson withdrew and then Charles Pey- ton, November 25. Billie Isaacs returned Oc- tober 29. The only change in our sixth year was the withdrawal of Maxine Crowe, February 5, 1942. The seventh year found us almost as bewilder- ed as we were when we entered the first grade. This year we went upstairs. Many questions arose—Where is mv room? Who’s my teacher? What class is next? Don’t we have any recess? At the beginning of school Bobby Bryant was a new member of our class. Robert Simms left March 5. Later Buster Rogers from Russellville and Marlene Miller from Rockville were added to our class roll. Beginning the eighth vear our new students were Anita Dwigans. Bob Collins. Charles Han- nah. Arlan Hunt and Robert Moore. Later Anita Dwigans and Bob Collins withdrew and Robert Jarvis entered March 13. Finally, the big dav arrived! We were Freshmen!!—“high schoolers and as green as they come, but not for long. Soon we became dignified, loftv, stately, and majestic—traits that have stayed with us to the end. The new students starting with us were Ken- neth Ebert, Joann Poole. Nelson Huxhold, Eun- ice Keys, and Leon Thompson. February 26. Max Weaver said. “Hello.” and March 6, Eunice Kevs said, “Good-by.
