CLASS Hisl@nw In the fall of the year 1944, a group of young boys and girls timidly entered the doors of Woodleaf High School for the first time. Although we were rather ignorant concerning the ways of high school, we soon learned under the direction and guid- ance of Mrs. Chambers, our home room teacher, who was very patient through our first year of school. When the sophomore year rolled around, the ones of us who had survived the first rugged year were well acquainted with the trials and tribulations of high school, and we approached the doors of Woodleaf High with a degree of confidence that had been lacking the year before. Twenty-four of us were able to continue the climb toward the goal of our high school years, that of graduation. The junior year was filled with various activities for all of us. The highlight of the year was the Junior-Senior banquet. All of us thoroughly enjoyed the part we took in making the banquet possible. Some of us also took part in the Beta Club play which was presented in the spring. The marshals chosen from the Junior class for graduation were Bobby Ward, Louise Fleming, Nannie Mae Harris, Katheryn Brindley, and Donald Watson. When the final year rolled around there were twenty-four of us yet. Two had left school but two more had entered the class. The Senior year was the most enjoyable of all. Our first big assignment was the Hallowe'en carnival. This called for a great deal of work from everyone, but it was well worth the time and effort required. The editing of the school annual proved to be the biggest job of our entire school year and school lives, but we were able to complete this job with the help of Mrs. Chambers and all the others who were kind enough to take an interest in our annual. The graduation exercises were the climax to twelve years of work and play at Woodleat High School. We are deeply indebted to our teachers, to our principal, and to everyone who has made it possible for us to acquire one of the greatest things a boy or girl could wish for, and one that can- not be taken away from us, once it is gained; that is a high school education. We know that the knowledge which is ours will help us to be useful citizens as we take our places in this world which demands clear thinking and makes no allowances for people who constantly make mistakes.
