In the center of the our village,
By the broad highway
Stands our noble
Alma Mater,
Like a beaming ray.
And we praise her and uphold her,
Over
land and sea,
And we treasure dearest friendships,
That we know so well.
Hail to thee our Alma Mater,
May she never fail,
For we pray for thy great
progress,
Hail to Old Holmes, hail.
We, the Senior Class of Holmes County School,
Are proud to
dedicate the 1953 Edition of the Devil
Tales to Mr. Willard Bush.
Simplicity and sincerity are his greatest traits, and,
Through
these, he has gained our friendship and respect.
We shall always
remember him as one of the
Best of the best of teachers.
Even
though he cannot be here in person, we the
Seniors, will always be
proud to know that "Pat"
Will always be here at HCHS in an inspiring
way,
Through this dedication.

Years pass slowly by and with each passing year, something new is
gained. Now, the time for the '53 Seniors to leave has come and so that
we will be "Gone, but not forgotten", we leave you this, our Class Will:
I, Ruth Andrews, leave with consideration and kindness to Lula
Messer, my chubbiness.
I, Jack Barefoot, leave unwillingly and
protestingly to the only person I think can carry on 1/10th as well as
I, my Editorship of the Gazette, Buddy Bellot;
I, Benny Barnes,
gleefully leave HCHS;
I, Jo Ann Black, leave to Patty Brazil the only
thing I cannot do without, my tongue.

"Westville Brewing Co".

will do as well as I) my Official Bell-Ringing position.
I, Betty
Dinkins, loving football as much as I do, refuse to leave my
cheerleading ability to anyone.
I, Kay Dwyer, leave my flirtatious
ways to Shirley Little. Lessons and demonstrations are free.
I,
Margie Ellis, leave my ability to catch a boyfriend anytime and anywhere
to Sue Martin.
I, Rex Fielding, leave bookkeeping to anyone who is
dump enough to take it.
I, Mazie French, who love things of beauty,
leave, Anita Donaldson, my hair.

and tall body leave my legs to "Stinkey" Arnold so that he may be able
to play basketball.
I, Glen George, leave my way with girls to Jimmy
Fulford.
I, Ray Grant, after much careful thought and consideration
have decided to leave my '20 jigger to Mrs Curry, just in case her '53
Ford breaks down.
I, Betty Henderson, leave my love for out-of-town
boys to Johnnie Pippin.
I, Gene Haney, having many abilities and not
wanting to share too many, leave only my musical ability to Beverly
Brown.
I, Russell Hood, leave my shyness to Betty Jo Bush.
I,
Gordan Jackson, sadly leave my little "Flash" to Alfred Marsh.
I,
Ruby Jones, leave my ability to read shorthand to Bobbye Brooks.
I,
Annette Kirkland, feel I should leave Kathryn Adams my ability to make
good grades without studying.
We, Jaunita Kirkland, Bernice Land and
Annette Lee, leave our love for servicemen to Kristine Everette.

Jerrie Paul my humorous ways;
I, Grace Whipple, leave to some poor,
unsuspecting junior my position as class treasurer;
I, June Wilcox,
leave to Jack Faircloth (I have a little to spare) my wavy hair;
I,
Jimmy Wilcox, doubt if Tommy Lee will take it, but I shall leave him all
the work that goes with Editorship of the Annual;
I, Martha Yates,
leave to Sarah White my most noted talent, singing.
We, the
Senior Class, leave with all sincerity:
To the Junior Class, our seats in
Assembly, Senior Privileges and Dignity.
To our faculty, who has done
so much for us that words cannot express our appreciation, a long and
peaceful rest until next September when again they must take on the
Senior troubles;
And, last but not least, to our class sponsors, we
would like to express our deepest, sincerest, and most humble thanks for
helping us to make this yearbook possible.
The lights shone through the narrow windows of the gaudily painted
trailer. The sign outside read, "Are you in trouble or in need of
advice? If so, Madam Curry can help you." I surely did need some help.
My eccentric old uncle had left me in his will a 50,000 acre ranch in
Oklahoma with one provision, that I find and get the signatures of all
my old high school classmates. Now getting their signature was not so
bad (they could all write -- I think), but finding where they had all
wandered to in the ten years since our graduation -- that was a problem!
Madam Curry was my only hope.
After listening sympathetically to
my problem, Madam Curry nodded her head sagely and snapped her fingers
for her assistant, Mrs Robinson, who quietly and efficiently lighted a
little old candle and sprayed the tiny room with an oriental fragrance.
Then, ceremoniously, she removed a dark cloth from a round glass object,
looking more like an inverted fish bowl than anything else, which sat on
a nearby table. Madam Curry motioned me to a seat opposite her at the
table. With an odd smile on her face, she gazed upward as if in a trance
and began to rub her hands over the crystal ball. When she moved her
hands nothing could be seen for a moment but swirling greyness. Then
suddenly an object began to take shape. Why, it looks like -- t is a
used car lot with a legend across the top reading "Do Fly In Car Lot". I
gasped with surprise when I saw Annette Kirkland giving a sales talk to
Evelyn Patterson and her husband about a new atomic powered Jetmobile.
My surprise was even greater when Jo Ann Black, the owner, came out to
close the deal!
As I hastily jotted down the address of the lot,
this vision faded and another appeared. This time we were transplanted
to Madison Square Garden. A basketball game was in full swing. "The
World Trotter's", famous female ball club, were playing a winning game
as usual, with their stars Marguerite Weeks and Mildred Smith again
getting credit for the victory.
Madison Square Garden faded from
view, and I saw across the crystal ball a huge sign: "Wilcox and Wilcox
Bumble Gum, Inc. We make a bigger blow than anyone." Well, it wouldn't
be hard to get Jimmy's and June's signatures anyway.
I turned
from my address book to gaze at the crystal ball and found myself in the
home of Mrs Marcelyn Richardson. She was entraining at tea Mrs Vernell
McCall and Mrs Annette Lee Boston. They were poring over a news article
announcing the new Mrs America, Mrs Grace Whipple Brown!
With
amazing rapidity I next found myself gazing upon the set of a television
program. The Mistress of Ceremony, Ruth Andrews, was introducing the
most popular comedian in TV, Rex Fielding. His show was followed
immediately by Dorothy Blackburn and her "Hints to the Busy Housewife"
program. She was sponsored by the "Rest If You Can Hotel", a luxurious
establishment owned and operated by Clifford Stewart and Ben Lisenby.
Madam Curry informed me that my old classmates, the now famous ballet
dancers Betty Dinkins, Beulah Messer, and Berniece Land, resided there.
A complete chance of scene carried us back to my old home town. Joe
Davis and Ray Grant were perpetating in front of their regal
establishment, the beloved drugstore once owned by "Papa Doug". Behind
the counter, jerking sodas with professional skill were Corine
Steverson, Juanita Kirkland, and Mazie French.
With the speed of
light, the scene in the inverted fish bowl skimmed over a vast body of
water and the dim outline of the African continent came into view. Thee
in the middle of the steamy jungle were Bonnie Stafford and Christine
Strickland teaching swimming to the natives. In a nearby city, Annette
Chappell was attached tot he foreign legion post, teaching jujitsu to
the special intelligence officers.
After a rapid trip over sand
dunes and choppy sea, we landed in an Italian sea port where I saw Kay
Dwyer Osburn saying goodbye to her husband who is still in the Navy.
Wilburn Raley was also there, slipping around corners saying goodbye to
a dozen or more luscious Italian beauties, who were bidding him a
tearful farewell.
From Italy, we traveled to France and entered a
crowded auditorium where I was not surprised to see "Killer Clarence"
Steverson and "Rawhide Bare" Fulford still slugging it out in a boxing
match, only now they wore gloves and had a new referee, Gordan Jackson.
In another part of France, we came upon the "Live A Little" Comic
Book Co, Inc, owned and operated by Glen George and Russell Hood. In the
composing room busily drawing more horror strips about flying saucers
and men from Mars were Charlene Cherry and Ruby Jones.
From
France, we crossed the sea again, this time to Cuba. There I found
myself in the middle of a big circus, and I was surprised to see a
number of my classmates as members of the troupe. There is Gene Haney,
the world's strongest man and champion weight lifter. In another tent
are the only living identical twins, Jo and Ann Cone. Right in the
middle of the midway Pauline Pipkin was selling tickets for Billy
Cooey's scientific and educational show, "The Process of Making
Westville Brew". Across the marquee was written, "Protect Your Local
Revenuer. Only Silver Donations Accepted". As Cuba faded from view, I
caught a glimpse of Frank Pope selling hot dogs on a street corner in
Havana.
Back in the good old USA, I found myself in Las Vegas and
the "Gold Nugget Saloon", famous clip joint owned by Jack Barefoot and
Benny Barnes. We were just in time for the floor show, and my hands
clutched wildly for the table as I saw Geraldine Palmer, Martha Yates,
and Juanita Newton leading the line of glamorous chorus girls.
As
I blinked my eyes in amazement, the crystal ball brought another picture
into focus: Clyde Melson and Dorthy Powell posing in front of their
"Pass the Cow Dairy". Their chief assistant, Frances Bradshaw, was busy
giving instructions to the hired help.
With breathtaking change
of scene, I suddenly found myself gazing upon West Point. There Colonel
Frank Redmon was reprimanding two local debutantes, Betty Fay Henderson
and Mariel Lucas, for slipping past the guards to see their rookie
boyfriends. They were save further misery by buck private Larry Cooey
who brought a message for the Colonel.
I breathed a sigh of
relief. At last, I had checked each erring classmate off my list. Now
with only a few days in my trusty helicopter, I could procure the
necessary signatures and receive my inheritance. As I drew Madam Curry's
fee from my bag, I was dreaming of the days ahead when I, Mrs "Wild Bob"
Elliot nee Margie Ellis, would be raising cows and other little odds and
ends on my 50,00 acre ranch.
