We hope that it may sarve as a lasting memorial of those whose pictures appear in it, and of the school from winch it originates. If we have, with your approval, accomplished this purpose, we are both satisfied and gratified. Known as the lady who has “a magic touch with children, this teacher has enjoyed the love, confidence and respect of all those stu¬ dents who have the good fortune to sit in her classroom. Her inspirational guidance has been a blessing to countless hoys and girls. It is with pleasure, pride, and appreciation that the staff of “The Chief” for 1957-58 dedicates this publication to Mrs. Sam J. Boyette. “Now this is the way to do it.” Our dedicatee turns gracious hostess.

Five different backs got into scoring act. Baker, Hackett, Roger¬ son, Hartley, and Davis scored one each. Douglas White made both extra points for Ahoskie. The Scots never made a threat on the Indian goal because of a tight Ahoskie defense. Yellow Jackets sting in last three minutes Michal Hartlay Dennis Nichols In a defensive battle plagued with penalties, fumbles, inter¬ ceptions, and punts, Roanoke Rapids edged Ahoskie 6-0 here September 13. Not until the fourth quarter did the Yellow Jackets’ Bobby Gray sweep around end for pay dirt, however the conversion was short. Billy Parker Ahoskie’s defense proved to be its most valuable asset.

Late in the second half Ply¬ mouth finally cracked the tight Ahoskie defense when Brown passed for two touchdowns. Hope Wholesome scoring seemed to be the objective with Ahoskie tallying 59-0 over Spring Hope there on October 4. Of the nine touchdowns two each were credited to Rogerson and Hackett.

Indians and Green Wave fight deadlock m On the night of November 15 the Williamston Green Wave met the Ahoskie Indians here. In the first quarter Stalls, a tackle, fell on the Green Wave’s own fumble behind the Indian goal. In the second quarter Davis caught a pass and went all the way for a T.D. Muse kicked the P.A.T. for Williamston and Hackett made the extra point for the Indians. Ahoskie bows to Washington, 26-7 Washington rolled over Ahos¬ kie 26-7 here October 10. Coch¬ ran led the visitors scoring as he went over for two T.D.’s. The Indians’ only score came from a blocked punt by King on the Pam Packs 16-yard line. Summary of ’57 Season Although the Indians worked harder than the record shows, the team came up with a won—3, lost—6, tied—1 record for the season. In the Edenton and Williamston games the Indians almost fooled the “so called experts” who predicted a four touch¬ down victory for the foes. We didn’t quite do it though we lost the Edenton game by 1 point and tied Williamston. A 11 year record is now won—89, lost—25, tied—4.
