FOREWORD... As we enter the W orld of Tomorrow with its jet air travel, atomic energy, satellites. and space exploration, it is apparent that increased emphasis will have to he placed on international co-operation. I he ■ program of the current International Geophysical Year, which involves scientists from many nations ol the world, is one example of such co-operation. I o take our place as citizens or leaders in this fast-moving and competitive age. we must be well equipped in the field of our choice. I his HORNE I depicts some of the scenes and activities at Aiken High School during 1958 as we prepared ourselves for the World ol I omorrow. 3 CONTENTS ACADEMICS PAGE 12 ★ ORGANIZATIONS PAGE 70LOREN TERRY PALMER II 1936-1957 Editor of the 1954 HORNET tn mptttnrtam TERRY, MY SON The world seldom finds a man so true A real friend to each one that he knew. To the things that are right he always held fast Even when doubters his beliefs would blast. He was never a prude nor felt himself great Just a real good fellow who played it straight. He considered himself average, no brain” was he But those who knew said that this was modesty. He wanted to help others, he felt himself blest When a friend he could aid, this was his quest. His talents were many and he used them abound To enhance the life of those he was around. A smile so sincere, a handshake so firm, Conversation so witty, his friends all confirm. Imagination so keen and the ability too, To express his ideas with words or hue. He loved the good things with all his heart, Good music, good books of him were a part. His painting, drawings and models may never achieve fame But they were his work, that is all he would claim. He must have been more than we mortals should be Because God called him Home to help Him, you see. Humans do not understand or envision God’s Plan So we find it difficult to give up this fine man. We will forever miss him and his character so fine But so glad that God gave him to us for a short time. —Loren T. Palmer. 5. . V V . STUDENT throughout the 1957-58 school year, the students of Aiken High School participated in various activities on or near the A. H. S. campus. In creating a student life section. the HORNET staff lias attempted to depict, through candid snapshots, some of the typical 6LIFE scenes portrayed by high school lives of some of the teen-agers of students.

Among the favorites heard at the youth center after football games were Searching. “Chances Are. and “Tammy. Many dances in the form ol the “shag.” “bop.” and “chicken” were created by the students. During the fall, however, entertainment was not confined solely to the football field. Available for the students enjoyment were the local theaters, featuring such films as Pal Joey. “The Ten Commandments. “Sayonara. and “Raintree County. After shows many students headed for favorite drive-ins for a snack, while others took the long way home. November found students looking forward to the Thanksgiving holidays. One of the events during this vacation was the canteen dance with Willie Wilson and his Combo furnishing the music. I he merry month of December heralded the coming of another vacation . . . two weeks of Christmas festivities, parties, informal get-togethers, and extra lime with families and friends. At one of its regular meetings in the hand room, the student council discusses ways to better Aiken High. I he t ainera catches seniors Bobby Spivey.

I he seniors, meanwhile, were burning the midnight oil to prepare term papers to meet the requirements of exacting faculty members. April ... a time when spring is in the air and a young man s fancy turns to love. On many days study halls were held on the back campus beneath the pines, where students could escape from the sweltering heat of the classrooms.

HORNET Mary Virginia Wahl EDITOR Carolyn I lolly BUSINESS MANAGER Buzzing around Aiken almost as fast as the satellites speed around earth, the Aiken High HORNLI Stall began its yearly drive for advertisements early in August. As the campaign progressed and the money began coming in. I lie staff busily dragged out its idea box in search of more ways to pay for I he yearbook. During October an informal dance was held in the cafeteria. At the last football game of the year pom-poms were sold. I he subscription drive with the new pay-as-you-go plan got under way about this time. However, all was not idle in the yearbook workshop, Lor many weeks the members o I the staff discussed and planned the theme, hoping the students would be pleased with their final decision. As M iss Mary Lou Barlow, the faculty adviser. helped the stall members in their many hours of work, the book began to take shape. After the annual went to press early in March, the I IORNET Stall eagerly awaited the return of the combined pictures and copy which the stafl hoped would compose a book long to be remembered by the students ol Aiken High School.

I he profits from the canteen are used to help buy some of the necessities for the extracurricular activities at A. II. S.

THE GREEN AND WHITE In order lo recognize certain students who had given much of their time and service to Aiken High School, Mr. J. O. Willis, principal. initiated last year an honorary organization known as I he Order of the Green and White. The main purpose of this society is to boost school spirit by recognizing those who have worked for its improvement. New members are appointed by the recommendation ol a majority of the club to Mr. Willis. Comprising this organization are students who have given their talent to Aiken I ligh in the form of sports, music, art. and electronics. I o promote interest in the study of nature and to provide opportunities for further study of nature for those with such an interest were the aims and purposes of the newly organized Natural History Club. Under the advisership of Mr. Luther S. Beard, the Natural History Club undertook many projects. Some of the members visited the Sa vannah Wildlife Range in November. A field trip was scheduled once a month, and it was planned to establish a nature trail in Hitchcock Woods and to begin a natural history museum at Aiken High School. Composed of twenty members, this organization meets twice a month. The only requirement for membership is a genuine interest in nature. ORDER OF THE STUDY OF NATURE First Row: Doug Porter.

Both teams played well but the rain kept the score down to a tie. In the next game, played at Hagood Stadium. Aiken was matched against the Lancaster Blue I lurricanes. This turned out to be one of the most rousing games of the season as the Hornets played powerful ball against a team ranked seventh in the state.
