The
same Milam Junior
High that Elvis Aron Presley attended in the mid- to late-1940s.
The
two men learned that the woman in Tupelo had been employed at the
school in the 1950s when one day a student came to her to check
out a book.
The
astute Milam Junior High librarian noticed that one of the names
on the checkout card – which every student had to sign when
borrowing a book – was that of Elvis Presley!
Written next to the name was the notation 7-C, signifying Elvis’
7th grade homeroom class.
A
further search of the library unearthed another card with the
fast-rising singing star’s signature. Obtaining permission
from
the school, the excited woman took the two cards home and
put them in her scrapbook.
