C Vass 3(istorij The year of 1959 was a red letter year for the class of '65, for it was then that thirty-two of us started out on our unknown adventure through high school. We had long awaited this day; for, at last, we could change classes instead of looking at the same face all day. We started out in the eighth grade with Mr. Newman as captain and Mrs. Wood as guide. My fellow classmates and I felt as if we were discovering a new land. This year for the first time we elected officers and had our first real class party. The following officers were elected to start us off on our journey through high school: President, Judy Weaver; Vice President, Larry Lawless; Secretary, Darrell Worley; Treasurer, Alfred Turner; Reporter, Lane Pendleton; Parliamentarian, Freeda Turner. In our Freshman year thirty-two bright and angelic faces greeted our faithful homeroom teacher, Mrs. Moricle. We were really on the road to success. Now at last we could take part in school activities such as basket- ball, baseball, cheerleading, and various clubs. In the spring of 1961 we were quite surprised when one of our members, Judy Weaver, was chosen Miss Woolwine High. It was hard to believe that we were finally sophomores. But Mrs. Pilson soon made us realize this fact for she kept saying, You have only three more years so work a little more and try a little harder. We did, but we didn't miss out on any of the fun. We pulled into port with a new captain, Mr. Joyce. Again in the spring another member of our class, Evelyn Mabe, was chosen Miss Woolwine High. Our junior year was the best ever. With the help of Mrs. Joyce we slaved over bake sale after bake sale trying to raise money for our Junior-Senior trip to New York. And, believe me, it was really worth all of our efforts, for who can forget the crazy little things that happened. I'm sure each senior has his own special memory of the trip. Our class must be filled to the brim with winners, for in the spring of our junior year Betty Rorrer was crowned Miss Woolwine High. And here at last we have arrived at our senior year with a feeling of sad- ness and regret and yet a bit of excitement at wondering what life has in store for us. Some of us have made definite plans for the future while others are still undecided. Already this year many things have happened--college boards, Senior Day, planning the annual, class rings, and ordering caps and gowns. When we see seniors of yesterday returning, it makes us aware that we too are approaching that time when we will be alumni of the school. Our trip has been a good one. School has been a challenge, and there has been fun with it all. And I'm sure as we look back in years tp come that we will feel an emptiness that no other experience could leave us. Judy Weaver
