CLASS POEM
PATHWAY OF LIFE
For years we have traveled the
pathways of school
We have fought many battles
and followed many a rule.
We have looked forward to,
and we've been preparing,
For the day when a cap and
gown,
We would be we a ring.
But now it is nearing and
we're somewhat sad,
When we look back with
pleasure,
To the fun we have had.
In the world of tomorrow, we'll
soon take our place,
To share in its joy, to run in
its race.
'
We'll never falter, but we will
succeed,
If we seek God's guidance and
ask Him to lead.

�CLASS HISTORY
To us, the 1957 seniors , September 1,
1945 was perhaps the most memorable day
of our lives. On this long-awaited day we
entered grammar school.

We were represented at Girls' State by
Esther Floyd and Dar lene Newell . Elmer
Huggins, Robert Wise, Ronald Powell, and
David Stone represented us at Boys' State.

Of the thirty-eight members who enrolled inthefirst grade only nine
remain today. They are Ella Russe ll Cox,
Itilene Cribb, Norman Cribb-, E !%,ther Floyd,
Elmer Huggins
Tnurma Jean Hughe s,
.
Sh1rley Jones, Da:tlene-Newell, and Ronald
Powell.
'

In September, we entered high school
as s eniors, wi th a new dignity, being looked up to by all of the other students . By
this time our class had decreased in number. Some of the students had moved a way,
some j o i ~ e d the armed forces , and for
some wedding bells had rung, while for the
rest of us sc1iool bells continued to ring.

We were joined by Sara Matthews in
the third grade , Carolyn Turner and Ronald
Brock in the fifth grade, Dolly Jean Davis
in the sixth grade, Mildred Avant, Peggy
Jean Pow e 11 , Grady Morris, and Darris
Prosser in the '8 even th grade, Marylyn
Blackwell in the eighth grade, Renetta Sue
Eaddy and R obed Wise in the tenth grade,
Margaret C u 1 pan and Wilma Wise in the
eleventh grade .

Sara Matthews , Shirley Jones, Esther
Floyd, and Darlene Newell helped the girls •
basketbal~ team win many victories
throughout the ir high school days, while
GTady Morris, Elmer Huggins, and Robert
Wise did as much for the boys ' team.
Robert Wi se and E lmer Huggins also contributed much to the District #2 football
team.

~

Under the care fu 1 guidance and wise
directions of Mrs. Geraldine E. Patterson,
Mrs. Burgess L. Altman, Mrs. Thurma~
Harrelson, Miss Hattie DuRant, Mrs.
Kathleen Stodda&lt;rd (now Mrs. E. H.
Venters, Jr.), Mrs .
enora Lyerly, Miss
Isla Cooper, and Mi'ss Jill Gaskins (now
Mrs. Louis B. Colema ), we finally completed grammar sc;.hool and were ready to
enter high school.
In the eighth g r ade w e were j oi ed by
students from Prospect Elem entary School;
among them were Irma Lydia Matthews,
Judy McKenzie, Shelby Jean Powers, and
David Stone . Thus we beg an a new school
year with many new friends.

Thurma Jean Hughes edited the"Gold
and B lack" and Es ther F 1 o yd edited the
"Flashes". Darlene Newell was voted
"MissHiMiss",'.!hurma Jean Hughes receivedtheD.A . ~a w ard, and Esther
Floyd was award-e d a.. medal for Best All
Round.
We worked ha11d uri.ng our senior year
under the spons~:r:sh ip of Mrs. Helen
Chapman, selling ma.;gazine s, calendar
listings, and sponsorin,g s upp ers and dances
in order to get funds to fina.nce the annual
trip of the Senier Class to Washington, D .
C. and other points of i nte re st .
011r Senior Play " Just O n e Big H appy
Family" w as perhaps the mo st outstanding performance presented by the class
during the entire year . That title might
best apply to our class - -The Class of '57.
It has been just one big happy familyworking toge
r, sharing each others joys and
sorrows,
each striving for the good
of the indi
as well a s fo-r; the good of
the class an,d
unity.

We started our high school years with
a large enrollment of eager freshmen, full
of enthusiasm and extr,eme i de as , whi ch
our teachers immediate ly curbed and directed into proper channel s.
Our junior year in high school will al w ays stand out in our mem6rie s. We spon sored a Hallo we'e n Carnival in or d -,: to
get funds for the Junior-Sen ior banquet,
whi ch kept us in a continuou ~pin . tr~~er
the sponsorship of Mrs.("
m M. ;loyd, we
successfully car ried out this banquet, the
theme "Moonlight and Roses" and "Old

Where stands our noble Alma Mater,
Glorious to view.

May it never fail!
