I remember riding the old black and white bus to town on Saturdays to go to the movies. My favorite movie of all times was THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. I went to see it three times and really miss the 25 cent movies these days.
I remember going with friends to the Grundy Drug Store for lunch occasionally. We could buy a hamburger, French fries, and drink for 55 cents. That was a real treat!

Dawn White (Neville):
One day in the library (they weren't called media centers then), Mrs. McElroy reminded us to put our chairs under the table when the bell rang, and sure enough, when the bell rang, Frank Wells and Guy Epling got up and put their chairs side-ways on the floor, totally under the table. She had a "fit", but we thought it was hilarious. I think she loved their antics, but had to act upset!

Ruby Bailey: I remember going to the little "store" next to the auditorium and getting snacks for lunch instead of eating in the cafeteria. I would love to go in the auditorium and gossip. Remember setting outside on those rails? Girls, we were not allowed to wear jeans. It was always an event when one of us tumbled over.
