SENIOR CLASS The story of our life in WHHS began in 1946. In the Freshman volume our goal, the big star of graduation was considered as far, far away; but there were many small stars in our crown. With Max as our leader and Sue, Eleanor and Bud assisting him, we led the school in the stadium drive and founded the Freshman clubs. Roger, J. H., Jack, and Warren began their careers in sports. Jean Clark and Joe Long received the American Legion Award. Sandra, Ruth, Harriet, Jeanette, Gene, Johnny G., Bud, and Eric were pages at the Jr.-Sr. Banquet Circus. The fad of the year was a new type of shoes called slides.'’ In Sophomore Volume there arc many more rhymes to remember. My dear Aunt Sally” proved to be the keynote to success in Algebra. Fall describes the first Fall Frolics with John Brantley as King. Sandra, Kay and Chrissy started cheering for the various sports seasons. WHHS won the S. F. C. Baseball tournament for the first time in many years with J. H. and Roger giving the team a helping hand. This year the Band made its first trip to the Orange Bowl, and Olga and Thomas were chosen as the Most Outstanding Band Students. The volume ends as Bud and Clayton won out in the elections for positions in the Junior Volume, Student Council Blond hair was the rage of this year. After resting our weary brains for three months, we opened the Junior Volume with plenty of pep and ideas. The rains flooded our football field so it was then named Lake Dennison. Joe, Dwight, Jeanne and Ruth were to direct us through the episodes of the year. Eleanor joined the squad of cheerleaders. While many of us struggled hours on the concessions trying to get rich, J. H., Roger, L. P., Charles, and Bobbys helped the football team win their victories. The Jr. Play— Brother Goose —brought fame and fortune to our name. The Band strutted out in new uniforms and made everyone proud of them at the State Band Contest. The Jr.-Sr. Banquet committee headed by Judy gave the Seniors a bang-up time (even if it did rain!) with the theme 49’ers. Dwight and Betty Jean were chosen to Senior Volume, Student Council, and Sandra was to edit our annual. Again WHHS were the victors of the S. F. C. Baseball tournament. The well-remembered fads for the year were yo-yo's and the boys' Toni's. Our Senior Volume opened before WHHS knew what happened. In the chapter, Football, Clearwater spoilca the end of the football tale. Helen Baxley became one of the cheer leading group captained by Kay and Chrissy. Olga and Roger reigned over Homecoming. The Seniors' lights shone bright: Hazel-Science; Fayc-Poetry; Judy-Specch. Because of a hasty wind called hurricane we didn’t get much use out of our auditorium until late in the Spring. This collection of stories that you have in your hand will long be remembered for the oustanding art work done by Gene. The fad of this wonderful year was the knitting of argyles for the light of each girl's eye. In late Spring we topped off the year with our great Senior play and the Jr.-Sr. Banquet. At long last we reach our star graduation and are entitled to enter the great volume, Life, and make our own rhymes. OFFICERS President .....
