Sawdust Memories


An undated photo of one of the the woodworking classes at BHS. A project each year was built by the students for their keeping. They only paid a small amount for the material. This project evidently is a cedar chest. The shop in these days, if I recall correctly, was in an added-on room at the west end of the gym.

Top, from left looks like Charles "Clubfoot" Weatherford(??), Tony Barber, and Larry Roberts. Need some help with the name of the person standing (Bobby Conwill?). Seated L-R Bonnie Ray Whitehead??, Donald Wayne Robinson, Bobby McCarley, and Larry Carpenter?

Corrections/additions needed.

    3. Thanks, Herschel. Remember, they wouldn't let us girls in the shop building. All we could ID was sewing machines and cook stoves.

  6. It could be Joe Murry but more likely Bobby Conwill since Joe M. was in lower grade at that time.
