Class History In September, 1955, eighteen freshmen entered high school eager to learn what this new adventure held for them. As the year slipped quickly by, these green freshmen enjoyed several activities which included the trip to the State Fair and playing basketball. When school reopened in September, 1956, the silly sophomores were four less in number, but were still the same happy group in spirit. Some were introduced to an organization new to them, the Beta Club; while others found their positions in basketball. The sophomores entertained the seniors with a weiner roast followed by an ice cream party. Several attended the State Fair again in their sophomore year. When the sophomore year came to a close, twelve students rose to jolly juniors. The juniors attended the Clemson-Carolina football game at UNC and also the State Fair. The highlights of the junior year were, however, publishing the Reflector , presenting their class play, Aaron Slick from Punkin Crick, and giving the Junior-Senior banquet. As the class of ' 59 climbs the last rung of the ladder, there are eleven sophisticated seniors. They have already selected caps and gowns and invitations, and are the proud wearers of class rings. They have spent many long hours of hard work to make the Quarterian meet their highest ideals. As these chronicles go to press, the two most outstanding events to which the seniors are looking forward are their trip to Washington, D. C., and graduation. With the receiving of diplomas, the history of the class of 1959 as a group will end. After gradu¬ ation its history will be written individually by the future deeds of each member.

Prophecy Of Class Of 1959 Listen, all, and hear ye as the Magus peers into the magic crystal ball to perceive many mys¬ teries of the dim future. First, a General of the U. S. Army is being decorated by the President of the United States for his feats of courage and bravery. As taps are serenely played, Marvin Brooks steps forward proudly. The scene shifts to a small shack up in them thar ' hills, where Billy Gene Carawanis succeeding in selling a cute hillbilly gal the new edition of To Greater Heights We Shall Rise. When it comes to selling, leave it to Billy Gene! Well, who is this hero naval officer appearing with a throng of girls yelling, Autograph, please! Merlin Carawan always was surrounded by females. As a stage curtain opens a comedian strides in front of the audience greeting them with a sly grin. While his fans roar with laughter, J. P. O ' Neal recalls his happy school days of unending fun. In the next scene a civil engineer is hard at work teaching his employees proper construction methods by use of plane geometry. None other than Glenn Mooney would hold that position. The magic of the crystal ball reveals Frances Cahoon addressing formal invitations to her wedding. Shorthand isn ' t doing any good in this situation. At a village church in Africa in the next scene is a famous lady busy telling the natives the joy of being a missionary. Immediately we recognize her as Dorothy Cutrell. What have we here? An impatient male patient breaks the quietness of Norfolk General Hospital with, Nurse, would you take my temperature again! Yes, Rosanna Carawan is the attentive head nurse there. American Air Line has employed a new secretary. Indulging in her work with extreme care is typist Nancy Stotesbury. Odd, but true, Rebecca Smith is teaching a class of high school students bookkeeping. We under¬ stand how trying her days are! Next, is a large laboratory filled with test tubes and Gloria Swindell is mixing chemicals for an experiment. She is thinking of her vacation where she will spend her time writing novels. At last the magic crystal ball tends to fade out of focus upon the seniors of ' 59.
