I'm still working on identities of people in photo.
Talmage Lee is the person in the back right hand corner.
If you recognize any of these people, please email me.  .....Ann

Left to right:  Mary (Phylis) Wood,
daughter of Carl & Cora Wood (information
from Margie Peake Cox (first cousin of Mary Wood.)
Thanks Margie
...

I am sure that the lady on the far right in front of Mr. Lee, is Mazella (not sure of spelling) Hardin, she was the English teacher and Beta Club sponsor. If you look at the faculty pic for 1950 and compare the pic of M. Hardin with the Beta Club one you will probably will see they are one and the same.  She is the older sister of Darlene Hardin Hester, wife of the late Noble Hester (younger brother of Glasgow and several other older brothers).
...................Thanks to Freddy L. Hester, class of 1954.

Ann, I think we, can identify all but one on the picture of the Beta Club in the 1950 annual at Belgreen School.  My sister-in-law helped me with some of them.

Left to Right: (taking them as you see them-not in rows) Mary Phylis Wood, next person-Bobbie Jean DeVaney, 3rd person (Not sure about) 4th, Virginia Jones, (my sister-in-law), behind her, Jack Nelson, to his right, Nina Sue Rea, next-Mary Jo Hester, to her right, Charles Holcomb, next-Betty Jo Shewbart, next-Ruby Lee Streetman, Mazelle Hardin and Mr. Talmage Lee.

Maybe we can come up with the name of the other one soon. I've enjoyed reading all your articles on here, plus the pictures.

Billy and I graduated in 1949.

.......Thanks Belva and Virginia for your thoughtful input on the identies in this photo.  And thanks for the kind words also!

The third person from the left is Lula Bolton. Virginia thought she was a Bolton but she was saying Lydia, and that is her sister.
