Mrs. Strozier's
7th Grade
By Elaine Entrekin
Mrs. Strozier’s homeroom
has been electing Citizen of the
Week for the past three weeks.
The girl and boy for the first
week were Marguerite Allgood
and Chester Parker. The Sec
ond and third week couples
were Susan Stubbs and Harold
Callaway, Jane Hackney and
Philip Piper.
We also elected Elaine Jack
son and Chester Parker to our
recent y formed Citizenship
Council to improve our school
citizenship. Every year E. L.
Ficquett has a special project
for the year. This year we are
stressing “Citizenship".
We all enjoyed our party
Friday night in honor of our
basketball players. However,
we hate to know that the sea
son is over.
Mrs. Ramsey’s
First Grade
Our class is working for good
citizenship. We wrote a story
today about taking turns. We
are stressing table manners.
We are trying to follow the
golden rule. We also are try
ing to stick to a job until it is
finished. Diligence is a trait we
stress in first grade. We try to
be reverent. Self discipline is
one fine trait of a good school
citizen. Happy is the child firm
in the knowledge that his
teacher (or parent) places trust
in him and he can trust him
self to do what has been taught
is right citizenship.
We have enjoyed the pretty
flowers brought by Lisa Tuck,
Chip Crawford, Jeff Reece,
David McElreath, Gloria Sing
ley, Debbie Durden and Rita
Rutledge.
Lisa Tuck is very proud of
her award in tap dancing. She
wore the pin to school for us
to see.
We have new number work
books. We like them very
much. Some of us are ready to
read in a new book, “Round
About”.
Twenty-four children in our
class attended Sunday School
last Sunday. That means that
only six did not go. Jeff Bailey
could not go because he went
to Georgia Baptist Hospital to
bring his mother home.
Leslie Howell brought his
football to school to play with
at recess. Kathy Carter brought
her new book, The Brimfull
Book, for us to share during
story time. All the members of
our class took the lump of
sugar against polio, except two.
We appreciated Mr. Ramsey
bringing a television set to our
class so that we could see John
Glenn as he made his journey
around the world. As the count
down reached Zero, the pray
ers of the boys and girls in our
class were with him as were
the prayers of millions of oth
er Americans. We think we

The Basketball Party
Friday night, March 9, the
E. L. Fickuett School cafetor
ium was the scene of the an
nual 7th and Bth grade bas
ketball parly.
The decorations made by our
cheerleaders, consisted of blue
and white streamers, suspend
ed from the ceiling and repre
sentations of rams, our school
emblem. On the end wall was
blue and white crepe paper
designed to form the word
“RAMS”. To the side of this
was a poster with the names
of the basketball players.
The most enjoyable part to
most of us was the dancing. It
seemed as though every other
record was, “the twist”. We
had several “snowballs”, and
Brenda Bonner and Renee
Pickett did the Charleston.
Everyone danced until time
for refreshments. We had
cakes, cookies, peanuts, po
tato chips, cheese tidbits and
Cokes. We want to thank the
cheerleaders again for choos
ing such delicious refresh
ments.
After more dancing the mo
ment everyone had been wait
ing for arrived, the awarding
of the basketball and cheer
leader letters. First, Mr. Car
ney awarded the cheerleader
letters then the cheerleaders
gave their last cheer of the
year. The boys were awarded
their basketball letters. Coach
Schneider then presented the
girls basketball letters/ Mr.
Carney congratulated Linda
Tuggle, Linda Hooper, Bob
Richardson and Jerry Wheeler
for being chosen as “all tourn
ament” players.
After two and a half hours
of rollicking fun the last music
sounded, down came the
streamers and a wonderful par
ty came to an end.
