Middleton Teacher.of Latin in GHS 1925-1941 Adviser of Class of 1941 in 1937-38 To the memory of our late teacher and adviser, Mrs. Middleton, we, the Senior Staff, in the name of the Class of 1941 do dedicate this supplement of our last issue of the Hi Neivs. In this attempt to recount four years of deeds and hopes and memories, it is altogether fitting that we include this tribute to her, whose memory will accompany us through the years to come and whose influence will ever remain with us. lish class, and on the order of “What a Life,” was presented at an assembly. “Bread” and “No, Not the Russians” were productions of the dramatics class and won the approval of the school. “Bread” was acclaimed by the Hi News las one of the ten best assemblies of the !^ar. \ , jrhe week of the Junior Play was given EISTjbt to the Juniors, who enjoyed the iHBlors’ privileges of first in the lunch mne and choice assembly seats. There was also a big parade in the downtown district advertising the play. For the first time, an original song, by Bobbie Helms, was used as the theme song of the play. Each year, the Juniors put out the issue of the Hi News which features the Junior Play and the Junior Class. This year the paper was put out under the editorship of Hilda Longest, who headed a large number of journalistically mind ed students.

These were Hilda Longest, chief: Kirby Hart, assistant chief: Edwin Lee, Elizabeth Royall, Dolores West, Lillian Jenkins, Lessie Mallard, Hortense Liles, Ellen Lovelace, Marie Belk, Ernest Crone, Mary Hicks, Bobbie Helms, Albert Handley, and Elizabeth Mayo. These fifteen Juniors had the highest scholastic averages in their class after two and-a-half year’s work. The main reason for the Junior Play was the raising of money to entertain the Seniors at the annual Junior-Senior Re ception. Naturally, many committees had to be appointed. Those serving were: Annie Mae Christenbury, Annie Mae Duke, Evelyn Denning, Hazel Whit ley, chairman, invitations; Evelyn Ginn, Alice Toler, Lenwood Benton, Elsie Savage, chairman, cloak; Sally Sanborn, David Bradshaw, Gaynell Odom, Claud Rutledge, Dorothy Smith, Francis Castex, Camilla Lynch, Virginia Odom, Lillian Jenkins, Minnie Stith, chairman, decorat ing; Norris Sutton, Walter Hicks, Robert Denmark, Gray Whitford, transportation for teachers; Gwendolyn Malpass, Edith Massengill, Vernon Pate, Bobbie Helms, chairman, entertainment; Louise Hollo man, Marian Hinkle, Mabel Selby, Nellie Howell, Letha Carter, A.

The reception was given May 10 in the gymnasium. Freshman and Sopho more girls provided the entertainment. Many things happened at the end of this their most glorious year so far. One was the election of SA officers. The Juniors capped four major offices by hav ing David Andrews elected president; Lessie Mallard, vice president; Bertha Shaver, recording secretary; and Henry Stenhouse, treasurer. Hilda Longest and Sally Sanborn were honored by being made members of the Quill and Scroll, the only two Juniors to receive this journalism honor. So ended the Junior year of a class that had received honors in every field. They retired for the summer to rest and pre pare for next year’s work—and gradua tion from the dear old building which had treated them so well.
