THE DEVELOPMENT OF A BOOK (Class History) In the year nineteen hundred forty-six, approximately sixty little words - confused and bewildered - reported to Miss Gaskins ' and Miss Jarrel ' s first grade rooms to begin writing the history of the class of 1958 . During the following seven years, words were added and eliminated under the supervision of the following grammar grade teachers: Miss Corwin, Miss Williams, Mrs. Crawford, Miss Dunn, Miss Brown, Mrs. Thomas, Mrs. Savage, Miss Bryan, Mrs. Nobles, Mrs. Greggor, Mrs. Dail, Miss Whitford, and Mrs. Evans. Additional words arrived from Bell Arthur during the eighth year. Mrs. Phillips and Mr. Moye were now in charge of rearranging these words so that they would be ready to enter high school. ' The transformation of words into sentences took place during the ninth year under the direction and the guidance of Miss Brown and Mrs. Collins. These teachers were instrumental in forming the words into topic sentences. Participation in many outside activities, which included membership on the annual staff and in the glee club, the band, F.H.A. , and F.F.A., served to develop these topic sentences into full-fledged paragraphs. New paragraphs were written during the tenth year. Those concern- ing participation in the Junior-Senior banquet as waiters and waitres ses , the Beta Club, and paper staff were beginning to be formed. This was done under the capable leadership of Mrs. Flannagan, who was sponsor for our group this year. At the end of this school year, these completed paragraphs were ready to be transferred to the eleventh grade. Mrs. Jackson, the eleventh-grade sponsor, was responsible for ar- ranging the material into pages.’ This was done by reworking the para- graphs handed to her and by making additions to the content. The maga- zine drive, Junior-Senior banquet, the arrival of class rings, and a visit to East Carolina College on Junior day completed the pages of our book. These pages were then sent to Mrs. Mallison,the senior class spon- sor. New pages concerning the senior play, the s election of caps and gowns, the choosing of a speaker for the Baccalaureate sermon, and the selection of a class flower, class colors, and mascots completed our printed material. Slowly and carefully these pages were assembled into chapters telling the story of the class of 1958. Graduation night in May 1958 completed the final chapter of the De - velopment of a Book. It was now ready to be forwarded to our publisher so that a history of our class would be preserved for posterity. Sandra Hunsucker Historian 12
