A dance room has been added to Beard’s Pool Room, with Sonny Beard and Rosalie entertaining. Martha Butler finally convinced the head of F. M. S. that a female teacher will do the boys some good. Billy Plumber is now a F. B. I. man; Finest Brushes, Incorporated, that is. Margaret Armentrout Matthews is still reading her ’49 Skyline and wondering how she could be so clever. Louise Hoy is the first woman manager of Roses. Marie Wagner did so well in Home Ec. that she is teaching the subject at W. H. S. now. To continue my story, the professor was then asked if he could find out what those who moved from Waynes¬ boro would be doing. They were scattered across the country, but after adjusting the controls, Einstein saw this: Stella Nicely and Rebecca Fravel, who were always so quiet in school, are directing tours in Williamsburg, dressed in 18th century costumes. Dr. Joseph Paul Glick, Jr., now practicing in North Carolina, is hoping that a certain Little girl will become one of his patients. Also in North Ca rolina is Patricia Pendergraft. She directs the “ Amberlights,” who appear weekly over WBT, Charlotte. Frances Ellen Coley Fisher has settled on a Connecticut farm, raising little chicos. The “Which twin has the Toni?” ad now features Audrey Hamilton and Rudolph Reed, separately, of course. And on the high seas, “Peaches” Wright is captain of a large yacht, with Seaman Brown under his command. Jay Mize and Lee Norman are bravely defending our land, since they joined the Army and Navy respectively. Eugene Daugherty is also wearing navy blue. He patrols Hawaii in a fighter so there won’t be a second Pearl Harbor. Eva Owens, after completing her nurses’ training at Johns Hopkins, decided to stay in Baltimore because of the good-looking internes. Professor Jerry Cummings, of the University of Virginia, has just finished his first textbook, How to Drink and Stay Sober. Dr. DeMasters, at the De jarnette Sanatorium, is healing patients by the score. Just looking at him makes them feel healthy. F. B. I. man, Justice East, helped maintain justice by forcing Bill “Lover” Smith into exile with his twenty wives. “Lover” is now in Arabia operating his little harem smoothly. Brian Ross and Bobby Critzer, who could never find their voices in high school, are making lecture tours throughout the country. Mildred Maney, the successful designer, operates a studio in sunny New Orleans. Steve, who lured her there, adores her . . . creations? Mary Ann Johnson can be found on a plantation in the deep South, lazily sipping a mint julep, resting in the shade, and saying, “Honey, does yo’ all really love me?” to her lover. Journalist Dick Lovegrove is throwing a wild(?) party for some of his friends. Present among the guests are Doug Smith, Richard Lotts, Van Irvine and Nita Ellison. Doug, whose band is playing at the Waldorf, is trying to revive those old favorites, “Smoke, Smoke, Smoke,” and “Wabash Cannon Ball.” Richard and Van are playing professional basketball. We hear they’re on the ball both on the courts and off. Nita has put her bubbling enthusiasm to good use. She is singing the commercials for the Double-Bubble Bubble Bath Company. President Truman used his influence to have Tom Guthrie, his very loyal follower, appointed as engineer commissioner for Washington, D. C. J. S. McMillan is still trying to make the frosh football team at Clemson. Bill Shorter finally entered S. M. U. He has high hopes for wearing jersey “35.” Minnie Gray Kibler received an offer from a South American senor to learn the rhumba and samba so she has flown to Venezuela. Jane Beard and Mary Ann Keenan are picking out only the best tobacco for Lucky Strike. “Tru-toe” Terry is the All-American, extra-point kicker this year. His secret is putting all his weight behind the kicks. That W. H. S. beauty, Lois Lawhorn, is resting on the laurels of her title,“Miss America.” She won that in 1952, and we hear that she may win the “Mrs. America” contest this year. Elizabeth Wyant and Juanita Carr have joined Fred Waring’s Glee Club. When the last scene had faded from sight, the Waynes- borian thanked Einstein profusely and went away. And now with lotions of love, I remain your New York cor¬ respondent, Walter Winchell, who wishes all these young people, about whom I spoke tonight, full, happy, and prosperous futures. ■4 24

OFFICERS Eddie Myrtle President Fred Moyer Vice President Malcolm Wade Secretary Jimmy Hagwood Treasurer Junior Class History Looking back through time, we see the year 1946. This was a great year for all of us for we were now entering high school. As freshmen will be, we were bewildered at so many new things to learn but finally, after catching on to things, we chose our class officers and began participating in sports and other activities. Class officers were: President, Mary Moore; Vice President, Charlotte Hicks; Secretary-Treasurer, Jo Ann Sweet. 1947, coming up! We had lost all feeling of being green freshmen and had begun to get into the swing of things. We were taking part in football, basketball, and dances, all of which were part of sophomore life. We elected Jo Ann Sweet as President, Eddie Myrtle as Vice President, and Ray Quillen as Secretary-Treasurer. Finally the big year arrives. We are now Juniors! It gives us a wonderful feeling, for now we are “upperclass¬ men.” This year we have chosen Eddie Myrtle as President, Fred Moyer as Vice President, Jimmy Hagwood as Treasurer and Malcolm Wade as Secretary. As in the preceding years, we participated in the sports and other activities of the school. We have given a play to raise money for the Junior-Senior Prom which was a big success. Well, the first three years at good ole W. H. S. have almost passed by, but these will be years we will all remember, and we’re looking forward to next year when WE will be the “Seniors” of W. H.
