Do you know we have a champion whistler You're right, it's Jim Tritchler. He's just a new money miser His Masters of Ceremonies are Bill and Mary Gayle Shriver.

Compared to the seniors, we are as the baby New Year is to the Old Year, minus the whiskers. But we aren't so young and inexperienced as that sounds. Since some of our class have been here for two years, we can take care of ourselves and our new classmates coming in each year, until they get accustomed to the ways of Clay-Battelle world. When the class census was first taken in 1950 we made a sum of 46. Our members represented Blacksville. Pentress, Jakes Run. and Bula. We celebrated our coming together with a class party on September 28. Our candidates for King and Queen Autumn that year were Jane Wise and Carroll Ammons. As eighth graders we maintained our total of 46 members. We became more active in school activities including the Girls' Glee Club. Student Council, and the Junior High Basketball team. As this year started, the bud that had started developing in 1950 kept unfolding until we are now a blossoming group of 55. interested in F.F.A.. F.H.A.. and Square Dance Club. Betty Morris represented us in the annual election of Queen Autumn at the Junior Carnival. Bob Miller has joined Coach Mason's forces on the senior high basketball team. Although we are classed Baby Freshmen, we are looking forward to the remaining years of our life at Clay Battelle with eagerness and anticipation and a determination of leaving a mark in the school's history, not a stain. ihirty Buddy Ammons Carroll Ammons John Bell Jean Bell Joan Bokis Jane Brummage Thomas Brummage Neil Chadwel!

Our first year at Clay-Battelle was now history and we felt at home in Room 27 under the capable leadership of our sponsor. Mrs. Gladys White. Autumn days found us busy on our project to secure a television set, offered by the American Stores, for our homeroom. Our goal has not yet been reached but our ambition is to be the first class in C.B.H.S. to own a television set. Rah! Rah! Elizabeth Tennant. Wilda Stewart and Nancy Lemley have the floor—they are the junior high cheerleaders, and we are proud of them. The junior high basketball squad contains Charles Shaw, Melvin Hall. Billie Seaman, Keith Arnett and Jack Pauley. Our social life as eighth graders has not been neglected. On December 19 we had a Christmas party, a tree and a gift exchange. Valentine Day was observed with a Valentine Box and exchange of greetings. Our annual party is scheduled for April 30 and we are looking forward to this event. As our eighth grade school days draw toward a close, we look back with happy memories but also look ahead and realize we are one step farther up the ladder that leads to our goal—graduation in 1956.

They came from Bula, Moore. Pcntress, Democrat, and Blacksville Schools. Under the guidance of Miss Hare, the group assembled in the Home Ec room and started on their high school career. Early in the year Leroy Minor left our class and moved to Morgantown but a week later Marie O'Conner filled the gap in our ranks. Our candidate for Queen Autumn IV was Shirley Strakal who made a good showing but lost out to an upper classman. Several of our boys tried out for the basketball team but inexperience kept them off the playing squad. With time and practice we expect to be well represented before we become a senior high group. School moved along and before long the Christmas holidays were at hand. During this two week interval two of our members, Donna Shaw and Mary Martha Wilson, took part in the Christmas program given by our school. Soon our holidays were over and we came back to school and daily lessons. Semester tests now confronted us but we took them in stride and one semester of our junior high days was completed. With the beginning of the new semester our group selected Joe Tuttle as our Student Council representative. Now we are looking forward to spring and the close of the school term when we hope to start the summer vacation as members of the eighth grade. thirty-four Martha Elaine Ammons Barbara Bolyard Jack Brummage Martha Bittinger Wayne Callahan Junior Clark Linda Sue Conn John Copeland Richard Cummins Larry Eddy Thomas Eddy Don Fordyce James Hardesty Nelda Hardesty Adrain Haught Ollie Headley Leonard Hendershot Karen Lemley Ruth Ann Lemley Leroy Minor Freddy Moore Paul Moore Marie O'Conner Charlotte Pennington Donna Shaw John Snider Garry Stiles Shirley Strakal Carolyn Tennant David Tennant Dwaine Tennant Alberta Tuttle Rita Mae Tuttlc Joe Tuttle Ellis Varner Jake Varner John Vincent Jean Williams Mary Martha Wilson Janet Wise thirty-five Top row. left to right: Clay Battelle Band, year 1947; Carolyn Lough.

Student Council The Student Council of Clay-Battelle High School was first organized in the old high school at Blacksville and was brought to Clay-Battelle when it was opened in 1939. The Council consists of twenty-six members, to be chosen from the classes and faculty by their members; six seniors, six juniors, four sophomores, four freshmen, two from the eighth grade, two from the seventh grade, and two from the faculty. The president and vice-president are elected during the second week of May of each year by the student body and the secretary is selected by the Council members at their first meeting. To secure better school-community cooperation, more student responsibility, higher social standards, more pride in school property, and a better understanding of the principles of democracy are all goals of this organization. During the past years the Student Council has added much to the success and betterment of Clay-Battelle. Some of the goals that have been accomplished are the water system, the red dog put on the driveway, and running the lunch line. The organization usually sells football programs at the games and has held the class tournament every year until last year when a Field Day was held. Another Field Day is planned for this year. Each year three members of the Student Council are chosen to attend the State Convention held at Jackson's Mill sometime the last of October. At this meeting the officers for the State Student Government are chosen. A Tri-County Student Government Meeting is held in November and our officers are sent to represent the Clay-Battelle Student Council. This meeting is held in a diSerent school each year and Clay-Battelle was chosen as the meeting place for Tri-County Meeting next fall. The first of school each year the Council sponsors a Student Mix so the students can get acquainted. The officers this year are: president. Bill Walker; vice-president. Mona Joy Tuttle; secretary. Sue Ammons; and sponsor, Mr. Staggers. thirty-eight Thespians 'Act well the part; there all the honor lies. is the motto of the National Thespian Society, a non secret and educational organization of teachers and students, established for the advancement of dramatic arts in the secondary schools. The aims of the society are two-fold: (1) to establish and advance standards of excellence in all phases of dramatic arts, and (2) to create an active and intelligent interest in dramatic arts among boys and girls in high school. The Thespians is an honor or recognition society in the sense that students are granted membership for having performed meritorious work in dramatic arts and have met the standards of their respective troupes. The Clay-Battelle Troupe 54 was chartered in 1947 under the sponsorship of Mrs. Bcrdine and at the present consists of 1 3 members. Every year an open initiation and informal banquet are held to take in new members who qualify for the Thespian Troupe. Qualifications needed to become a Thespian member are to have had two semesters of dramatics and to have performed a major role of at least seventy lines in some play. A three act play is annually presented by the Thespians. Some plays they have given are Meet A Body '47. Nine Girls '49. and ‘‘Meet Me In St. Louis '49.

In the first game of the season our boys threw a sizeable fright into strongly favored Grafton, but lost two players, one because of injury, and the other by courtesy of the State Athletic Association. The Clay-Battelle home schedule was, again this year, a Kleig production staged under the lights at Brave. Pennsylvania. This foggy arena often caused the combatants to resemble a convention of ghosts. A highlight of the C-B's invasion of foreign gridirons came at Morgantown where the Blue and Gray warriors pushed the St. Francis squad’s collective face into the hallowed turf of Pony Lewis field and nearly scored an upset.

In the sectional tournament the Blue and Gray bowed out to a strong Fairview team who had twice before beaten the C-B’s in regular games. One of the bright spots of the season was the well earned victory over the Alumni and the double win over Smithfield. Coach Mason and his boys are to be commended regardless of the won and lost column as the score did not always reveal how well our boys played. Some games were lost by a narrow margin and a few lucky breaks could well have made a different season. Next year’s squad, enriched by experience, should prove a serious threat to all competitors.
