Wootton THE TT VELTH GRADE Beverly Brantley Ray Strickland 12 In behalf of the graduating class of 1943 I wish -to exiena no you a hearty welcome and to say to you that we are glad von have come to help us celebrate our entrv into « new and unknown phase of our life. For the past eleven vears we have been climbing a ladder. We started our climb the day we entered the first o-rade. You have sem us climb, sometimes rather fast and sometimes, I’m afraid, very slovjly, but always working- toward one goal: to finish high school i nd start life anew in the world. Today as we start this new adventure we enter a world torn and shaken bv the horrors of a global war. The hr.it d States in taking a ma ion pert in this conflict, and that means that we of this mnior class have a share in it. Some of us will g o into the armed forces; some will work on the home front; but we, alone ' 1 with vou , are going to see it through to final and complete victory 50 that we can enter into a normal and peaceful life. Tonight we will lay all that aside, however, and from the depths of our hearts thank God that we can celebrate this gr nd occ sion which comes onlv once in a lifetime, We wish to express our gratitude to our parents, teachers, and friends who have helped make this night of celebration possible. We sincerely hope that you enjoy our program and that the memories of this night may live long in your hearts, as thev will surely live in Parents, teachers and friends; To me has been granted the rather painful privilege of saving to you farewell. For eleven happy and busv years we have gathered here as a class and now we are to come back no more forever as students of Wendell High School. Much as we have looked forw rd to this moment, we now find that the parting-s fill our hearts with real ’•egret. However we look for- ward with hone and purpose to the opoortunities that tomorrow will b irc and we know that our happy vears here have not only been • ' ■ears of growth and mentally, but they have equipped us better to bear a worthv part ’ n the future. As we leave we do so with a full consciousness thet it is a war- torn world into which we go. Some of us, indeed, may soon take our places in the armed forces that will enter the conflict to make thio wo-ld again a fit plsce in which to live. All of us must and will do our share in the remaking of the world as we have known it. Like old Omar the tentmaker, we have indeed, seen this sorrv scheme of things entire” shattered to oits almost, 1,r e h r ve come daily to our prosaic tasks here while the world and all civilization seemed on the verge of total destruction. Now, indeed ve must aid in ours 2 13 the effort to remould if nearer to th ' hearts desire. For such a time hive we come to the end of our training and for such serious work have wb studied and been taught. So we come to say farewell. To our teachers we brine - no high- soundine - phrases. 7 e fear they know us too well. But we ask them to believe thy o we are truly grateful for meir patience and labor with us. We have lived with them rather closely and with that living has come a res ect, an a ' mi r tion, and a sincere likinp - that goes deeper and is rmre lastin ' - than any love at first sirht could be. To you parents and friends, who have come out to be with us in our p-rert hour h ' 3 ' , whit can we say that does not sound to bookish to bo real? Like vou we find it hard to express our deeper feelings. Our gratitude and love for our parents and for you friends foes too deep for us to be ' h 1 3 to dress it uo with plib hr; - o, . We ask vou to believe that to feeling is there, that it is real and sincere, and that it will go with us through life. And now, classmate . wh t shall I say to you? Wh t shall we say to eacn other as the hutr comes and now is when we must part from each other, no less than from teachers anu school? Our hearts are full tonight, M.nd oven now we see that the years we had here have been good ye rs , and that as time passes and memory mellows and hal- lows them, they will become more precious. So to these old halls we have loved so well, to Wendell Hiph School and to our happy high school davs we sav, indeed, farewell. To our teachers and friends that we haw 5 learned to 1 ov q , we sev not farewell, but au revoir mnv we meet again soon and often. AUTOGRAPHS 14 in 1931 a bunch of very young and raw recruits ente od ’’Fort Wen- dell” for basic training in the Battle of Life. Under the supervision of our mirhty Captains of Learning, Miss Eva Perkins, and Mrs. Gladys Griffin; Miss Helen Wootton and 1 Mrs. W.E. Stott; Mrs. Magpie Hester and Mrs. Ethel Johnson we won our service stripes, and, proudly bearing the titles of Privates first class, mass- ed from Primary ranking. Then forward we marched, ever victorious in the fight with igno- rance. The Signal Corps came in most opportunelv when examinations were due and too often we got sent to the guard house, sometimes known as Detention Hall. But we were kept very much in hand bv our able Captains, Misses Frances Posers and Myrtle Bailey: Mrs. E.T. Boyette and Miss Marjorie Richardson; Miss Euva Jernig-an «nd Mrs. Mary Ousley. Then came that momentous year when under the supervision of Misses Leslie Richardson and Gladys Baker we became full fledged Corporals. Of this we were, to say the least, proud. After each four month’s furlough we met our comrades a rain and eaeerlv faced a new and harder battle. Some prepared for action in various branches, such as the Army Band under th direction of H.T. McDuffie and Marsh Knott; Chemical Warfare under J.B. Evans, Miss Pauline Hardwicke, who has left u£ for another branch of service, end Mrs. Leslie Braudwell, L.C. Murphy and General Boyette nreoared others for the Finance Department and Politics. Still others took training for the worthy field of Matrimony under Mrs. Craven Broughton and Miss Mary E. York, and others with the help of Bruce Butler and E.D. Elling- ton prepared to help produce the nation ' s food supply. Mrs. E.T. Boyette had left us to care for per f-milv, but at our call she responded most patriotically and she joined our higher ranks to direct us. Our friend and instructor, Miss Lava Howard, nreoared us for battle and diplomacy equally well Dy keeping us physically fit and teaching us foreign language. Mrs. Clair -Hi eh and Mrs. S.C. Tilliams taught equally well the fundamentals of our language. From Miss Howard and B.C. Williams we learned of sports and enioved man - ' - battles with neighboring - c mps, notable Camp Wakelon. To keep up the morale of all, the Gins Flipper was presented. Everyone enjoyed this performance and there was a considerable in- crease in the resources of the Finance Department. After furlough the hilarious comedy For Pete ' s Sake! was presented. From tim° to time the spirits of many a waarv soldier wore lightened b r the food ' hich we valiantly served K.P. duty to prepare for our superiors. During - th« years, many of our b a lov°d instructors and comrades nave either transfered to other camps or °-on with honorable dis- charges into th«t worthy branch, Matrimony. No we realize that this battle is leading to a bigger and better on for all there know! edge- thirsty soldiers and, though we are weary and a little bedraggled, ns full fledged officers in the army of life wo salut° the pns + and future with the pledge to Keep ’em Flving. U ass One cold evening I was sitting before an ooen fireplace in a lazy chair. The light ere dim and the radio was playing verv low. The sweet music pf the Lazv River was ebbing softly through the room. Being verv tired I soon wandered into dreamland. Mv dream carried me before a mall door upon which in large letters was Learn Of Your Fu- ture? I entered, placing a coin in the hand of a bent old woman and asked the future of the Graduating- class of 1943. She begran talking in a slow, monotonous mumble. Jesse Lee 3arham is breaking all typing records and has been given a job .as secretary to Betty Grable. State’s best halfback is Joe Carter. In a Carolina-State football game he ran 70 yds. for a touchdown. The great Yankee stadium is in a tremendous uproar. Miles Dean has just knocked a home run putting the Yankees in the lead 1-0. Joe Eason liked driving his school-bus so well that he has secured a job in Richmond, Virginia driving a street-car. Alpheus Haswell’s driving ability has won him a job as a highway pat- rolman. They say he i s a good driver. Someone has to farm so Mahlon Honeycutt is content in keeping his farm in perfect condition. When you enter the Boone-Isley drug store, you will always find Willis Honeycutt, Sr. Druggist, very willing to fill your prescriptions. Word has just been received that Horace Howard has been promoted to storekeeper, first class in the United States Navy. Buster Johnson has received another advancement in an inspection cen- ter in New York City inspecting certified laundries. Because of his sincere interest for atheletics, Thomas Jordan has opened a large Y.M.C.a. gymnasium in Raleigh. Otho Liles’ great personality and good grades in school has gained him an anpointment to West Point. Sergeant James Marshbourn is doing a great job drilling new recruits at Fort Bragg. In the last election Willard Marshburn was given the title of Congress- man for the State of N.C. One of the best Agriculture teachers in Wake County Schools is Matthew Pearce. He has just graduated from State College. Jesse Lee Phipps has remained in Wendell to carry on his career as a bashful lover. Paul Richardson’s ability to translate Latin into English has led him into a successful career as a physician. Clarence Roberts is also a credit to Wendell High School. They say he is doing well at Wake Forest College. Not wanting Jesse Lee Phipps to beat his time. Mack Roberts is also remaining in Wendell. If you are tired and thirstv and desire a cool, refreshing drink, stop in at the Wendell Drug Store and have Richard Scarboro fix vou one. Because of his over-speeding and reckless driving, Billy Sherron has succeeded in getting a job with Jimmy Lynch and his Death Dodgers. 16 The love of open fields and natural surroundings has lured Leaman Strickland back to the farm. Clarence Wootton is a great success in the Motion Picture industry. In his last picture he co-sta.rred ith Maureen O ' Hara. When we are standing by the railroad tracks and hear the familiar choo- choo of a locomotive, instantly think of Eerie Gav, engineer. Iris Anderson is sending her soldier-bovs the roods. She is a first class welder at the Norfolk shiovards. Pacing up and down the corridors of a larre hospital, Pauline Carter is successfully carrving on her work as e trained nurse. If you will tune in at W.R.A.L. every night at 9 o ' clock, Shirlev Dean and Kathryn Kannon will put you to sleep with their beautiful songs . Eva Jane Frady is at the peak of success composing music for Harry James p nd his orchestra. In her neat uniform, Helen Leppard waits in line in the W.A.A.F. ' s for further flight instructions. Having finished college. Flora Ann Nowell is one of the best reporters for the News and Observer. Rosaleen Nowell is earning a nice income writing articles for the Good Housekeeping Magazine. Nell Painter is doing a p-ood job beautifying her home. Her beautiful flower gardens are envied throughout the state. On a small dairy on the outskirts of Wendell, Virginia Pearce is lead- ing a quiet and contented life as a houseyirife, Elnora Strickland ' s love of Math has drawn her into the Hudson-Belk Department Store where she is- cashier. Gloria Thompson ' s graceful firure, charmino- eyes and lovely hair has been recognized as one of the most distinguished models in New York City. In a large apartment in Chicago, Georgia Nell Todd is waiting for her husband to get a discharge from the United States Army. Cleo Whitaker ' s application as a filing clerk has just been accepted bv p-overnment officials in Washington, D.C. In a m odern ni mht club in Baltimore, Bill Parish is blowing- his trum- pet for Glen ' Miller and his orchestra. The mumblinp ceases, the fire burns low and I a’vaken from my dream. Thus ends the prophecy of the class of 1 Q 43. 17 Last Will and Testament We, the Senior Class of Wendell High Softool, in + he town of Wendell, State of Nort Carolina, on this twentieth day of April in the year 1943, being- of a sound mind and generous disposition, and folly realizing that although we will soon be of the past, the past is never dead, do hereby make and publish this, our last will and testament, all wills other than this to be considered null and void.
