MEMORIES OF WEST YADICIN IN 19L7-1.8 September 9 was the dreaded or glorious day for the return to school and with the early appearance of school buses throughout the upper reaches of Yadkin county, a new and colorful school year began. New teachers were almost as thick as students and the accent was on youth this session. A new .home economics teacher took her brood out to the home economics building and the scouring began and equipment was unc:-ated.A new social science teacher,a man at that, dusted off the old history books during the first week and tried to cram some knowledge into the already full noggins. The physical educallion was taken . care of by a recent grad of Woman's College and the kids jumped at the mere mention of play. New faces were seen among students and some who had been expectedf to return were not present because of numerous marriages and just plain growing up. The first social event of the year was the annual Halloween Carn- ival which took up all available space at the gm and a spirit of fun and frolic prevailed over all. The school funds were increased by about 8700 that night so each off us were proud they came and had four fun too. Basketball replaced the booths in the gym and early work began to select candidates to represent -,our school on the hardwood floors throughout the winter. with home games trips to ease the monotony, the gadabouts found plenty of places to ge and still support the teams all the way. Christmas holidays brought a welcome relief from the drudgery of'classes and looking at teachers faces. Many presents were exchanged and the lovers donned new watches, engagement rings, dinner Yingsna-Hd other trifles too numerous and plentiful tg ment,1on,Ba.nquet, talk
