PEACE IS A PROCESS
The roar of the guns in World War II has ceased.
The defeat of the enemy was so complete that millions
of our boys have returned to their homes. Boys who
were Seniors here only a few months ago meet us on
the street wearing Pacific, Mediterranean, and Euro¬
pean campaign ribbons. War has transformed them
into bronzed and hardened veterans. They have done
their job well; they have won the war. They and the
whole world now look to us to win the Peace.
That the silence of the guns did not bring Peace
should not be disappointing to anyone. The guns
have been silent before, but Peace did not come.
What we must all understand and accept is that
Peace is a process. It is an attitude of mind and spirit
which leads us ultimately to accept every man as our
brother and to accord him every right and privilege
which we claim for ourselves.
If we lose this as a goal, we lose the Peace. If we
grow faint hearted now, the War Lords will again
assume control. Civilization is at the crossroads. The
path to Peace calls for Spiritual and Intellectual Recon¬
version; the process of directing all mankind in his
thinking and in his feeling to the pursuits of Peace.

CLASS PROPHECY Betsy Elliott, you're the dumbest thing! Why on earth you
got on this plane without something to read—why, you could have even g<jne over some (jf the short stories that came in today and decided ui)on the October features for Headers’ Sug¬ gest There should be some papers lying around this drawing room though -but, then, the stewardess may have something more interesting to read. Have to ask her when she comes ihrongh next. There'rc some , i)apers—yes, the Times, Sun. Trib¬ une. and- my soul, can it he? A Washington Daily Neivs— so many i)apers l*y that name—the one back home—why, Betsy, you must be seeing things! “ H'ashingioni Daily Neivs, WASH- IXOTOX, XORTH CAROKIXA, July 9. 1956?? What in the world would this be doing on a strata-liner between Xew York and 1-os Angeles?
(Josh, what a small world it actually is: running across a Daily Nezvs (the good old fashioned one!) when I'm on the way to tile premier of Zazer Deans, just doesn't seem possible and the gang used to call her “Dearl Rat." She must be another non-musical \'irginia O’Brieu. Must save this pai)er for her.
Why. you haven't read a word, Betsy, just l)een gazing at it. I.et's see. “Now and Then" liy Ivenora Dudley. Be funny if her flramatic reviews came nut in the iVasliington Daily atul “N'ow and Then.” of all things, in the Snn. Both prol)ably entled with a rhyme though.
Well, what in the world? “N^orfolk Dentist, finest at Ltjcal P'irst Convention- Dr. Ronald V. Spruill explains new techni- (lue of ... . no. not Ronald S])ruin! I never could have featured that.
Now “City ICngineer Discloses Plans for Improvements of Warren Field. At the Board of Alderman’s meeting Thursday night. John Whitley, City Engineer, reported on ])lans. John W'hitley, well ^^•hat d'ya know? And didn't somebody sav that “Mofi” had gone back to teaching since their marriage? C'areer and family! Just like Margaret Jane. How she keeps the job of head technician at Johns Hopkins and carries on the obliga¬ tions of a lawyer's wife!!
I wish this news wou’dn’t just jump at me so suddenly. I can't read it quickly enough. Magdalene Jackson is enlarging home demonstration programs to include ....
What’s this? “Friends of Miss Ann Weeks will be interested to know that the latest issue of Seventee-n lias arrived in the city.” Anne, a cover girl! Who would have dreamed that Shirley Dunston would have climbed the “ladder” in ten short years right np to the family, tagged positions of Helena Ruben- stien's setup?
.Started to sav \^’hat a diiference a few years make, l)ut. look— tho theatres still have the corner Ijoxc'j on the paper. And say. wi'l you read that again? “Comedy Short Ity Taylor Koonce.”
P. T. A. elects T/Unch Room Supervisors. Miss Afargie Alligood, to be assisted l)y . . . .” Capable girl, but thought scmieone told me she was married. X’o, guess it was Zola Peel I heard about Cartwright.
Betsy, you’re running out of exclamations, but this takes the cake. “Famous Radio Grand Ole <)i)era Will Be Attraction for Few Weeks.and its star is Hazo) T.ewis. She really has come up in the world. Here’s Ailene Russell’s name on the front page. Head nurse at Washington Ilosnital '-•ave nurses degrees at graduation:' Tliose graduating were: Jane Tay- h'o. Bonny Billete. Ramona Woolard. Why she was in tb'-t cOss of ours. I’m certainly glad she’s settled down to nursing. She bad such a hard time deciding upon a nrofessinn.
“State Rpfl Cross Chairman Opens Drive- Miss .Shirley Tay- hn*. originally of W'ashington begins Social worker number one. Twelve of the old class mentioned on the front nage— must be manv more on the society jiace. Well I shon’d s;iy! Headlines and no ]e«s: “Mi.=s Stowe Honors Bride Elect at Dinner Party—Mis*? T.ucinda Edwards, whose anproaet’ing mar¬ riage to ” That weddiim must have been th" talk of the town ever since the Easter holidays when it was r'nimnnc''d.
Blit “Tommie!” WJiv she’ll soon be a Mrs. ton. Dbl’i’t she say in her last letter that on the 15th she was ouitting tlie law reerirds of the county to prepare for the hig ri.ny?
W'ell. well!!! T had often wondered. “The Reverend and Mrs. Jehu Nicholls. Jr., of New Orleans. T.ouisiana. have arrived in the city to spend a few weeks with relatives.” Ouite a nice church he must have there.
Furthermore. “Mrs. Flovd Britlgers left today ti> visit her (Uuigliter. Mary Bragg, in X’firfolk. X’irginia.” That’s right, site’s managing the X'irginia Pet Shojts, Inc., now.
“Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Singleton have retttrncd from Columbia. South Cai’olina. where Mr. Singleton attended llie Federal Loan Bank Reincsentatives Aleeting”—just wliat he always wauled. And that could go double for Atlialia Harris technician in Chicago—good inb 'n‘ bright lights!
Gosh, no need to ask the stewardess for anything to read. Here r<tmes the stewardess thcgigh -looks like a grown-it]) edition of X'ivi'ui Ingalls. T wonder how she is. anyway,
“F?]l. hey. Betsv Elliott! What are you doing here?” X'ivian. it is you. So good to see you. and look what I’ve found!” “Yes. I know, a Doily News. Tma firey Pilgrim left it oti here yester- d''v.” Ima Grey? “Yes. she was flying out to meet her husband—” “.She's Alarried?” “ 'Ell, 1 slmnld say so—to a Metro-Goldwvn- Mayer salesman! .Met him at the Tiirnage while he was on his X’. C. rounds.” Ivand!!!
“Have you read tins ihitig though. Vivian? Mr. and Mrs. Bill Ingalls announce the l)irth of a son. William Ingalls. Jr., which was born Thursday morning at the Fowle Memorial Hos- tdfal. Mrs. Ingalls was the former Miss ICvelyn .Smith of this city. Wasn’t it Evelyn's l)rntlier that Doris Willard used to date?” “It certainly was and Ima Grey tohl me that T)oris i*? married to an oil prf)ducer now. Do you sui)pose it could be he?” “Could be! You never can tell about our class. Even Marion Bowen is teaching at John Small. .MtI grade! Can yon see tliat?” “X’ot e.xactly, l)ut do you rememlier X’irginia Bouev?” “Of course.” “XX’ell, I heard her this week on the radio. She’s Ethel on the
‘Ethel aiul Albert’ program. It is a scream!” “I guess it is, knowing X'irginia.”
“Look, honey, here’s an account of Martha Salee])y’s dancing .school recital, if you will! Remember the tapping she did in school?” “Never forget it, or Shirley XX'oolard’s and my dance in the Junior Talent X'ight—and, Betsy!, She’s Mrs. Bill George now. And did you notice that ‘Hilda’s,’ a dress shop owned by Hilda P2verette, is featuring a new line of suits designed by Joan Stanton? Remember she came to us in the Senior class? I believe the ad is on i>age five.”
‘‘Oh, yes. here it is. and right beside it a beauty parlor adver¬ tisement—and, (ilenis Roberson is listed as one of the operators. XX’ait a minute, I saw the name Whittaker on a page over here— wonder it it’s Thad and Mattie. Yes, Thad, Jr., if you please, has leading part in first grade chai>el program.” “We had the Everson sisters in our class, rememlier? Wonder where Hazel is.” “I'd like to know. She certainly was a sweet girl. Well, X'ivian, what a coincidence. Look here in the church news. Hazel is director of Religious Education in the Methodist Church at home.” “XX’ell, I’ll be! And look in ‘About Town,’ ‘The Assistant l.ilirarian, Aliss Polly Sheppard, announces the arrival of some new- books . . . ’ W hy. wasn’t Polly an assistant to .Xliss Holland when we were in school?”
“.She was and, Betsy, do you remember the case Alary Louise Baker had with Billy Williams in school? Well, they’ve been married ever since the summer after we graduated.” “Yes, someone told me tlie last time I was home. Asd when I was there I saw Howard Sapp, too. He’s runnirig a sporting goods store.” “S])orls —Sai)p was co-captain—and Russel Cherry came back to scho(fl that year, didn't he?”
“XX'cll, flid you know that Russel went back to the Army and is a major now?” "No, I hadn’t heard.”
“But Alary Roberson is keeping Ijooks for one of the ware¬ houses at home.”
“Another of those commercial girls. They really made careers of what they learned, didn’t they? I understand Frances Pink- ham is about the l)est public stenographer there is in town.” “I don’t doul)t it; she was always conscientioxis.”
“Be back in a minute. Betsy; we’re landing in Detroit and I must greet the passengers.”
“X’ivian sho’ is the girl for this job, meeting the pe(ii)le. W'liy. that man looks like someone 1 should know—kinda’ favors the marine Linda Alarselender used to go with. He was from Alichigan, No, Betsy, this may be ‘your day’ but you can’t meet the world in a single day. .Still, he does look like that--Dick. yes, Dick was his name—why, there in Linda!! They must have married. Alust speak to the ole girl.”
“Hey, Linda—I.inda Alarselender -I mean, well, gosh, hey . . . .” No greetings like those hetw'een old classmates.
“.Say, X’ivian. did you just see Linda Alarselender? Wonder where Alary Etta Floyd is—they used to stay togetlier so much . . . X’ou heard that she was the receptionist to a i)sychiatrist in Denver?”
‘’X'ivian, you know' all the news 11 But sjieaking of ])sychia- trists, did you know* tliat was the field that Henry Aloore entered? I ran across a review* of his the other day on one of the new* children’s books. He’s quite popular -popular, yes—even in the .Senior Siqierlatives he was most popular, wasn’t he?”
“XTi‘ know. I was thinking about it the other day. In some cases, we were more accurate than we knew in electing those superlatives. Dorothy Swanner. for instance, was chosen for tlie most talented and she has really lived np to it—commercial artist now.for jierfumes, I hear.”
“That's a marvehms field. But tell me, X'ivian, did Ernestine X'irhols ever get anywhere with her singing?”
“Did she? XX'ell. let’s sec—in about fifteen minutes you can hear her. Slie has licr own radio program twice a week!”
“Really? That’s wonderful. X'ivian, you must excuse me. I just can’t seem to get through with this paper. IvOok, even in the want ads. ‘Truck rlriver wanted for Little’s Florist.’ XTui knew-' Hnlfla Little Ijought out Cozzens at home, didn’t you? 5'mart girl and Libby Gurganus! She’s married and has the loveliest little gift shr)p now. 1 spent hours just browsing around it when I was home last.” “Good—it was she and Zelma XX'ool- ard who w'ere such good friends. Did you know Zelma was a come*lian? Really up and coming over television.”
“ Feievision ? Seems like vve have someone from our class in almost every field. You know. Martha Sasnette is in with a big interior decorating corporation in New X’ork.”
“Is that a fact.”’ XX’ell, did you know that Susie Kate Aloore was teaching music at home now?”
“XX hy. no. but I do remember that she played the piano in high school aiuI Ella Alae .Smith worked at Penders’ then. .Some¬ one w'fote me last week that she has recently been made manager of the store -married now, too, I believe.”
“XX'’ell, here’s the big news! Alameda I^eggett is a night club hostess in a little ])lace in Sacramento.”
“Huh?! How nice.” “Look, X ivian. it says here that Aliss Alice XX’oolard has
returned to Duke Hospital after spending the week-end in XX ashingtun. She’s a technician too, you know.” “Alore girls in our class liecame technicians and nurses, didn't they? Remem- b-^r when we were working on the class prophecy, we almost put Maude X'ohles down as a nurse ami mwv she’s teaching pliy.sical ed’ at the new high school.”
“At least some of nur class is enjoying the new building. Peggy Joyce ('arrawan was head of the ('ommercia^ Depart¬ ment this year.”

CLASS POEM We, in the class of Forty-six will soon have to depart—
To leave our school, our homes, our triends—there’s a
new life to start!
Science has advanced; our responsibility is great!
The world—the Nation—humanity—depend on our fate!
Reality is harsh, but we will willingly face it,
And use our freedom well—determinedly embrace it!
A Pray’r is breathed to God above to guide us to our goal—
May we seek His strength and be His children—pure of
heart and soul!
Lenora Dudley, Class Poet.
