Class Poem The time has come again When seniors take their leave go into the world To teach what they believe. We, like those before ua. Will try to do our part And keep our Alma Mater Forever near our hearts. We extend our hand in gratitude To those who gave us sight By teaching us the knowledge To choose from wrong or right. We think of all the fun we shared And all the hardships too And we are sure that if we strive Our dreams will all come true. A CLASS HISTORY It was the afternoon of May 21st, the day of graduation. As I sat thinking of all we had struggled through during the tvjelve, long years we had been together, I drifted into a peaceful slumber. Again it was a lovely summer day in 1935- Mrs. Gladys Griffin and Miss Eva Perkins were patiently struggling with us; trying to keep us entertained so that we wouldn’t get too homesick for Mama . They did their jobs well and soon we had learned the fundamentals of the three R’s , and how to cooperate with our fellow classmates. The next six years crept by and the day we went to the seventh grade we were thrilled because we were about to enter high school. Then, to our disappointment a grade was added be- tween the seventh and eighth. This did not discourage us, however. One more year did not seem to matter. Mrs. E. T. Boyette was our home-room teacher in the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades. While we were in the tenth grade, she patiently helped us give the seniors a banquet. This, being our first, we put our hearts into our work and it proved to be successful. In February, 1947, we went to Williamsburg, Virginia, and added more to our knowledge, as well as our fun. Our sight-seeing trip to Washington, D. C., was one we will never forget. We stayed there four days and spent all of our time seeing the famous places we read about in our history books. Our lunior-Senior banquet was a momentous affair. Thanks to the juniors, we all had an unforgettably good time. But there is no time for dreaming now. It ' s almost time for the final graduation exercises to begin.- This night will end our high school days forever. It’s been a long, hard twelve years, but somehow we have managed to struggle through, and we feel that cur school days have been well-spent. .A T ' if ' t An ' 4. ' III,. Mil,, ' mh. 111, ..’ III, .

Everyone is home on vacation, and the seniors of 1947 are having their first reunion since their separation on May 2i, 1947. Let us see what each has accomplished during the past ten years. Hilda Bruch is a surgeon in the new V endell Hospital where Sue Todd and Dorothy Marshburn are dependable nurses. If you ' re sick and want to die, they are the people you should see. Harold Phipps is a radio comedian who is trying to run Bob Hope out of business. I still don ' t understand how Elinor Medlin managed to get through voice school and secure her own radio show. Some people are just plain lucky ! Ruby Doris Medlin, a beauty operator, seems to be very successful in making women look like something they aren ' t. Fate hasn ' t found Carl Andrews, for he Is still loafing. Hazel Harris, a lab technician, is blowing up laboratories from the East Coast to the Vi est Coast. Retha Pearce, who pretends to work in an office, is still trying to convince someone that she was here before Kilroy. Aaron Johnson has finally become famous. He is known as The Feet of the United States. Helen McBroom is a teacher of physical education in Castalia, North Carolina. She even makes the girls on the basketball team stack wood to keep in shape. Luella Nowell is a dignified English teacher in Yorkdell High School, Yorkdell, Tezalina. When she gets mad, she talks to the students in pig language so they won ' t know if she is using bad English . Nell Richardson is private secretary to the governor of Georgia. Every night after work she entertains him with her own versions of Boogie Woogle r Believe it or not. Rose V all, now a novel writer, is known as the largest woman in Toyland, Peru. Incidentally, only midgets live there. Velma Wheeler still has her job at the bank, but with it she has a new job — that of chief cook and bottlewasher . she can ' t say we didn ' t warn her I I I t ' f V I • .4 . , i.. ... .. iv, • rfligfijjBtejis • ' ; y I - - 4 , ‘.

Jimmy Vfootton, owner of ViTootton ' s Grocery, refuses to hire any of the graduates of ' 47 to work for him. Ke says he knows _them too well. Virginia aason is working for the Thurston Kotor Lines so t,nat sne can keep an eye on her husband who drives a truck for the same company, Sallie Knott is the proud mother of a blond-haired, freckle-faced lad who she calls Junior Frances White pretends to be a secretary; however we have a hunch that if we went to see her, we would find her sitting on the boss ' s lap Muriel Yancey is happily married and living on a ranch in Texes. She must dislike horses, for it is impossible for her to stay on one. Thus you see how fate has affected each of us. Prophet CLASS SONG (Tunei The Old Lamplighter) For twelve long years, We struggled here; Now, we have reached our goal. Our school days are over In dear, old Wendell. Our hearts will linger here, dear friends; No matter where we roam; In Wendell School That was so long our home. Long as the stars shine in the blue, Long as the roses love the dew, Our love for you will grow each passing day. There will be others we will meet As we go traveling dovm the street. Of our life ' s busy highway, it is true. But we ' ll not trade old friends for new; And we ' ll just keep on loving you. You ' ve been loyal and true in days gone by. You ' ve made our heavy burdens lighter. You have made our days much brighter We must now say, Tarewell, dear old Wendell School. -Hi ■ ■ ' .; Wa‘ V •iil’. t MmMfe • ; ■ Aiy. r .- ■ i: . .-i zir ' is : :...-.i::: :. ' My ' Last Will and Testament We, the Senior Class of Wendell High School, in the Town of Wendell, State of North Carolina, on this twenty-first day of May in the year one thousand nine hundred forty-seven, being of sound mind and generous disposition, and fiilly realizing that although, as a class, we shall exist no more, that there will be no more class of ' 47, do hereby make and publish this our last will and testament; all other wills other than this to be considered null and void. To our Alma Mater we leave our best wishes, our loyal affec- tion, and all our hopes for a better Wendell High in the future years. To Mr, Boyette, o ir principal; to Mrs. Boyette, our sponsor and loyal advisor; and to the faculty, for their untiring efforts in promoting our education, we can only hope that the future classes will be better than we have been. Mary Sue Todd with reluctance and fear bequeathes her ' 46 school bus to Herbert Henderson, and as she is afraid John Gordon will get lonesome, she leaves him her popularity. To Martha Jane Cockrell, Retha Pearce leaves her title of biggest flirt. Don ' t let us down Moss, Quiet, poised and dignified (heh, heh) Helen McBroom wills these qualities to Janet Dean and her ability to make friends to Charles Blalock. Sally Knott wisR.es to bestow some of her wittiness upon Joe Bill Richsirdson. We ' ll be looking forward to some laughs how. Dignified Dorothy Marshbum wishes to share some of her dignity with Vivian Wood and Elaine Byrd. Evidently she has de- cided she has an over abundance. Wayne Mitchell and James Cash may have as much of Hazel ' s intelligence as it will take to get them a diploma in ' 48. Quiet, charming and agreeable Ruby Doris Medlln leaves these admirable qualities to Joe Joseph and James Nichols, Divide ' em equally boys. ‘4. ' III.. lu u ' ' it,. ' %u. ' ii . ' ' ni. ' u,.

Get hep but quick. That girl who speaks her mind, Elinor Medlin, leaves her bag full of arguments to Royce Richardson. She hopes he will find them of some use, Hilda Bruch leaves ner coueurvative taste in clothes to those two Would Be Junior Fashion Plates--Bob Brame and Ted Creech, Rose Wall is willing to tell her secret of how to be small and still be seen to Marvin Pearce, The prettiest girl in the Senior Class, Virginia Eason, is willing to owe this title to June Liles, Virginia says she ' s already got her man. Luella Nowell throws her job as office girl to Jewel Richardson and bequeathes her position as Senior Class President to Willard Scarboro, That— that— well, anyway, Harold Phipps leaves his moth eaten collection of stale jokes to Homer Horton and his title of Best Looking Boy (What a manli) to Charles Mason, Muriel Yancey is willing to give some of her blonde beauty (ErkJ ErkJ ) to Margaret Clark. Nell Richardson leaves her seat in a certain red Mercury to either of the Painter sisters who is lucky enough to get it. Budding class poetess, Frances White. leaves her poetic genius to Mattie Scarboro. Carl Andrews leaves his list of excuses for being late to Marvin Pleasant, They almost never fall, Jimmy Wooten leaves his good all around personality to Dennis Carter, Velma Wheeler leaves her position as a P.

Everybody asks how you are feeling and then act bored when you begin to tell them. Miss Ames: Young man picking up a watermelon: Is this the largest grapefruit you can grow In these parts? Stop, said the Californian, you’re crushing that ralsen. One day Mr. Stone and Mr. Wood were standing on a street corner, when a girl, coming down the street, fell and sprained her ankle. Stone turned to wooJi; woofi turned to Stone; and both turned to rub (b) ' er. Boss replying to employee asking for a raise: Of course you ' re worth more than you’re getting, Phipps. Why don’t you let up a bit? Housewife to vacuum salesman: You might try the people next door. We use theirs, and It’s terrible! Mrs. Andrews: Carl: Mrs. Andrews: Carl: Mac: Rose: Mrs. Boyette: Velma: How’s your report this month? Below water. How’s that? Well, it’s below C level. My Biology teacher, Mrs. Perry, talks to herself. Do any of your teachers do that? Yep, Mr. Boyette does, but he doesn’t realize it. He thinks we’re listening. Did any of you have trouble finding the questions? No Mam, but I had trouble finding the answers. I shall Illustrate what I have in mind, said Mr. O’Neal, as he completely erased the black board.
