Class Of 1946 Reunion Data Here Saturday
Interesting statistics on the class of 1946 which will hold a reunion here Saturday, out of the seventy three graduates, who received their diplomas in June 1946. Thirty five have remained in our wonderful State of Arkansas, with almost half of these sixteen remaining in Hempstead County. The neighboring states beckoned to quite a few: Texas fifteen and Louisiana five. Other states were not so enticing gaining only a small number, Ohio and Florida two each, Connecticut, Kansas, California, Mississippi, New Mexico, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Alabama one each. Three wandered all the way overseas, located in Africa, Korea and Viet Nam. Only thirteen states are represented by our graduating group. One death has occurred in the entire class.
