Graduates Among the many students who are employed by local merchants are Carleton Hawpe and Bob Brannon, two of the courteous clerics at Fish- burne’s Drugstore. Lou Rader and Paul Gelsleichter, assis¬ tant leaders of Troop 7, aid younger mem¬ bers in the troop in learning rules and skills of scouting. Many of the members of the graduating class per¬ form very worthwhile services in and for our commun¬ ity. Both the community and the students benefit from these activities. We graduates thank the city of Way¬ nesboro and its citizens for the advantages, privileges, and opportunities they have given us during our years at Waynesboro High School. As nurses’ aides, Martha Ann Craig, Marjory Smith, and Dabney Lipscomb attend local citizens who donate blood at the Bloodmobile. Susan Shackelford contributes her time and her talent to the First Presbyterian Church as organist for the youth choirs. 19
