LASS RESENTS Haywood County Public Library Waynesville Alma In a rose-tinted valley encircled by hills, Resting deep in a land that is blest, Where the warm golden sunlight brings concord and peace Lies the school that our hearts all love best. Mater And amidst those green hills in that valley of gold. Shall our praises to her ever rise. ’Til the mountains and hill-sides her honors set forth And re-echo her name to the skies. CHORUS Then hurrah for our colors, our flag, and our school. Hurrah for our classmates so dear. Hurrah for our teachers so kind and so true. For the Board of Trustees give a cheer.

To The Class of 1950 Dear Seniors: No doubt your feelings are rather mixed when you consider that within a very short time you will have completed your high school course of study. Things which seemed all important a few months ago fade into insignifi¬ cance in the light of new problems. Take courage from the fact that you have had the perserverence and ability to conquer this first big step in training for a productive place in society. Remember that willingness to work, the application of all your abilities to the task at hand, special effort to make yourself personally acceptable to your fellow workers, can bring the satisfaction which comes from a job well done and success in the field of your choice. We will follow your future activities with a great deal of interest, rejoice with you in your successes and take a great deal of pride in your growth in citizenship. M. H.

We have a total population of 1,222, with 673 in the Senior High and 549 in the Junior High. We have 24 teachers teaching 4 courses in Eng¬ lish; 6 courses in mathematics; 4 in foreign languages; 5 in science; 3 in history; 1 in religion; 5 in business; 1 in speech; 1 in resource use and oc¬ cupational guidance; 4 in music; 2 in home economics and 9 in physical education. Besides all this we have 12 teachers in the Junior High. Our music department has two instructors. We have a concert band of 53 pieces; a military band of 60 pieces and a junior band of 50 pieces. In the vocal department we have a mixed chorus of 90 voices. Our athletic department is active in football, basketball, for boys and girls, softball and baseball, golf, general physical education for both girls and boys, and track. Our library has 5,000 books; our stadium a capacity of 3,000, and our auditorium will seat 900 people. We have 5 buildings for school use. The Junior Building, the Senior Building, the shop, the agricultural building and the Future Farmers of America building. A garage and cannery are also located on the campus. Pc oem The time has come when we must part; From the school we love so dear; With saddened hearts we bid farewell; No more to hear the ringing bell; Or silent whispers the commencement held. Into the world we all must go; Into a world torn by strife; We say good-bye and go our zvay; No more to meet til judgment day: Oh! So short and sad is life. And so we part, lest our hearts remain; With the school that was the best; “Dear Waynesville High”, you are the one; The proudest school beneath the sun; You shadow all the rest.

THE SQUAD Waynesville High produced another team of champions for the season of ’49 and ’50. Our team first fought to a 6-6 tie with Sylva. Next, as is customary, they rolled over poor little Tryon with a score of 33-6. The annual struggle with Elizabethton prophicied that Waynesville was going to have another successful season. The score was 7-0 in favor of the Mountaineers. The following Friday we met with our “FRIENDLY” rivals over at Canton. As usual we won. At the end of the massacre the score was 6-0. Then came an unending stream of victories: Hendersonville 12, WTHS 28; Christ School 0, WTHS 28; Bryson City 6, WTHS 20; Asheville School 0, WTHS 20; Marion 6, WTHS 19. Then at long last came the official end of the season and the Turkey Day game with Canton. Naturally we won that one too.

Monroe was big but it couldn’t get by. Here’s the lineup that helped the Mountaineers win so often. The 1949 Pap Waynesville sent thirty three of the finest foot¬ ball players in Western North Carolina to Can¬ ton to participate in the Second Annual Paper Bowl Game. After playing and defeating Marion last year, they were again invited to play and r Bowl Game faced one of the top notch teams in the state, Monroe. Monroe came out on top after four hard fought quarters 13-0. The annual staff and the school sincerely hope that The Moun¬ taineers will be invited for the third time in ’50. BOYS’ BASKETBALL WTHS is indeed proud of the accomplishments of its Boys Basketball Team. And it should be, for they have carried the name of our school into many other schools and have shown that the boys from Waynesville are trained not only in athletics but in real sportsmanship.
