There isn't much to be said about the Advertising section of the Fairforest Forest Views yearbook. It is interesting, though, to see what businesses were around the Spartanburg area in 1940.

#9 - Forest Views - Activities - 1940
The Activities section of Forest Views is sorely lacking. It appears the only real activities were the Fairforest Junior Homemakers and the Future Farmers of America clubs. Not much to choose from in 1940. Below are the group pictures of these two school clubs.
Here is a closer look at each picture from the above page. Below each picture, I will put the students names for easier reading. Note that in the picture the name listing begins with "Front Row", however there is no other row listed, only the students names. When transcribing the names below this picture, I omitted "Front Row".
Anne Ruth Blackwell, Myrtle Hope, Jane Walden, Betty Crosby, Kathleen Chumley, Jennie Hughes, Mae Green, Elizabeth Brown, Ann Bridgeman, Peggy McClellan, Juanita Morrow, Bernice Brady, Virginia Hyder, Marie Fisher, Margaret Dixon, Mary Carolyn Ezell, Mary Martin, Dot Falls, Betty Foster, Lois Aycock, Climera Brookshire, Marion Terrell, Mary Davis, Helen Coble, Sue Mae Franks, Margaret Justice.
Front Row: Ned Crow, Preston Medlock, Warren Justice, Mr. Garrison, Clarence Padgett, Robert Charles, Bill Hope
Second Row: Delmas Wallace, Jamse [sic] Coble (should be James Coble), S. C. Crosby, William Green, Joe Sams, Melvin Welch
Third Row: Don Suttles, Baron Smith, Boyd Fowler
The second page in the Activities section of Forest Views contains a collage of small pictures representing student activities and Fairforest High School itself.
The final page in the Activities section of the yearbook is for Autographs of your fellow students.
#8 - Forest Views - Athletics - 1940
The Athletics section of the 1940 Fairforest High yearbook Forest Views has only four pages. The first page has only two printed team pictures. The top picture is of the Fairforest High boy's basketball team and the bottom picture is the Fairforest football team. Under each picture is printed the team members' names by row.
Below is each picture from the above page and I will put the student names below each picture for easier reading.
Front Row: Ned Crow, Buddy Westbrook, Jack Key, Ryan Mobley, Delmas Wallace, Melvin Welch
Back Row: Coach Rex Williams, Bill Martin, Robert Miller, Macon Byce, James Wingo, Earl Mink, Manager Clarence Padgett
Front Row: Preston Medlock, Warren Justice, Earl Mink, Ned Crow, Buddy Westbrook
Second Row: Robert Miller, Clarence Padgett, Macon Byce, Bill Martin, Lamar Crawford
Third Row: Coach Rex Williams, Bill Hope, Ryan Mobley, Steve Worley, Manager Raymond Matthews
The next page has two tiny pasted in team pictures. The top picture is the Fairforest boy's baseball team and the bottom picture is the Fairforest girl's basketball team. Sadly, there is no name listing for either of these teams.
Here is a closer look at the two pictures from the above page.

Next we have a page with the 1940 Fairforest Basketball Schedule and the County Tournament results.
The last page in the Athletics section of Forest Views contains the 1940 school year Football Schedule and the 1940 Baseball Schedule for the Fairforest teams.

#7 - Forest Views - Freshmen Class - 1940
In the Freshmen Class section of the Fairforest yearbook there is a pasted in group picture of the class on the first page and the page following has a listing of the students. (As previously noted in the post about the Junior & Sophomore Class sections, the Junior, Sophomore and Freshman group photos were all originally glued on a blank page. With time, the glue deteriorated and all three of the group pictures fell out. I have re-attached the pictures to the pages using the best judgment of picture size and by comparing glue patterns on the picture back to the glue patterns on the page. I sincerely hope that I got it right.)
Below is the 1940 Fairforest High School Freshmen Class group picture as it appears in the yearbook. Below that is a closer view.

In the Senior Class section of the Fairforest High yearbook we first see the Senior Class Officers and the Staff who worked on this first edition of Forest Views. My Mama was the Asst. Managing Editor, which is something that she never told me.
Also listed on the page above are three Seniors who were absent when the yearbook pictures were made. They were Louise Dunn, Margaret Dickson and Aline Graham. I found a picture of Louise Dunn in Mama's photo album, so I will put Louise's 1939 pre-graduation picture here.
