As we turn to page ten we see: SOPHOMORES ORDER RINGS, SWEATERS ARE PURCHASED, SOPHOMORES HAVE TWENTY-TWO ENROLL- MENT. As sophomores we ordered our rings on April 21, 1955, from the Hcrff Jones Company. In September, 1954, we purchased our sweaters, choosing blue and gray as the colors after having quite a heated discussion on the matter. On the first of September, in the same year, twenty-two students were enrolled to begin studies as sophomores. Page nine reads: FRESHMEN ARE INITIATED BY SENIORS, TWENTY-ONE ARE IN FRESHMAN CLASS, FINAL SCORE OF FRESHMAN-SOPHO- MORE GIRLS TOURNAMENT REMAINS TIED. The freshmen were initiated by the seniors by having to wear costumes all day with the worst to come that night. All sorts of stunts were done by us freshmen, including egg-breaking and other messes. Another outstanding event of the year was the final game of the girls’ bas- ketball tournament. The underdogs, the freshmen girls, tied the sophomore girls in an exciting game. (No over- time in girls’ basketball.) During the summer and fall of ’53 we lost Carolyn Weaver but we gained Melvin and Marvin McDonald to make our enrollment twenty- one. At the beginning of the second semester another student, Mary Umberger (Lambuth) joined us and we lost a classmate, Lowell Brewer. On back to page eight: EIGHTH GRADE HAS TWENTY-ONE MEMBERS. Between May and Sep- tember of 1952, we gained two members, Joan Allen and Wally Metzger. During the same period we lost two members, Sharon Cooper and Virginia Waltz, making our total number twenty-one. Richard Day also left us during the year. Headlines on page seven: TWENTY-THREE SEV- ENTH GRADERS BEGIN THEIR FIRST YEAR OF JUNIOR HIGH. The summer of ’51 brought us five- new class members. They were: Ellen Short, Richard Day, Jack Howell. Charles Felkner, and Lowell Brewer. At the same time we lost a member, Max Morgan, mak- ing our enrollment twenty-three. On the sixth page we see: GRADE SIX HAS TWENTY STUDENTS. During the summer of ’50 Bill Collins joined us to make our sixth grade enrollment nineteen. Cecil Stewart joined us later in the year to make the total enrollment twenty. Mr. Ray Miller and Mrs. Doris Grimes were our teachers for that year. Glancing at page five: FIFTH GRADE HAS NINE- TFIEN PUPILS. During the summer of ’49 we lost three class members: Jack Martin. James Claycomb, and Carolyn Calvert. During that same period, however. we gained a student, Sandra Murray, and later in the year still another was added, Alma Brewer, to make our total number twenty-one. Before the year was over we lost two members, Sara Peck and Karen Adkins, dropping our enrollment back to nineteen. Our teach- ers for that vear were Mr. Miller and Mrs. Grimes. The fifth and sixth grades were departmentalized for three years. On to page four: MRS. RATCLIFF HAS TWENTY- TWO STUDENTS IN FOURTH GRADE CLASS. Be- tween May and Septemlx r of ‘48 we lost four members of our class. They were: Garry Brady, Don Linton, Beverly Robison, and Carleen Harlx r. However, we gained three new students, James Claycomb, Delores Thomas, and Karen Adkins, making us twenty-two members. Then page three: GRADE THREE HAS TWENTY- THREE MEMBERS, HOT LUNCH PROGRAM SET UP, MEASLES EPIDEMIC. The enrollment for Mrs. Mitchell’s class for September ’47 was twenty-two, a gain of six during the vacation months. The members that were added were: Garry Brady, James Lower)-, Carleen Harbor, Jack Martin, Alan Milligan, and Wal- ter Overstreet. We also lost a member, Janice Rosen- baum. At the beginning of our third year the hot lunch program was in full swing so away went our old lunch pails. Another outstanding event that year was the day only seven out of the twenty-two members of our class were present due to an epidemic of old- fashioned measles. On the second page we see: SEVENTEEN PUPILS ARE ENROLLED IN MRS. GLASCOCK’S SECOND GRADE. F'rom May until September, 1946, we lost five members of our class. They were: Janet Fulford. Janet Thomas, Richard Morgan, Jane Wilson, and Dale Hester. We gained one student. Jim Wheeler, to make our total enrollment seventeen. On to page one: TWENTY-ONE PUPILS BEGIN FIRST YEAR OF SCHOOL, LOVE BUG BITES EARLY. Mrs. Moore (Foster) started us out in Sep- temlx-r, 1945, for our first year of sclux l with twenty- one members, of whom only four remained for twelve years. They are: Daniel Sewell, Jack Mitchell, Don Gentry, and Norma Atkison. We will never forget that first year or the first day at W.H.S. As usual we had a class romance; none of us will forget the day Daniel kissed Beverly Robison. As we leave the halls of W.H.S. we will long re- member these twelve years of hard work and fun. But we must remember that we are now taking a big step out into the future and may we always profit by our past. Page Ten
