The band building plans good that they may be foundi in several text books. It is always an annual staff's dream when they are publishing an annual to make 'this year's better than ever.' We don't claim to have made the I953 BEARCAT the best, but wel have worked hard to reach that goal. In our pictures and stories we have tried to preserve the past year for those later years in life when we can look back in our BEARCATS, and all of the fond memories we have of Lenoir High School will come back to us. Many things we wanted to include had to be left out, either because of lack of space or because we thought that other things would be more important in later years. As you Icaf through the pages of this book, it is our hope that you will find your high school days all summed up in the 1953 BEARCAT. I THE EDITOR 3 40 FACULTY CLASSES ACTIVITIES ATH LETICS 'M H ek N f . Qi! fam Y, . .. AM DEDICATION Teaching is hard enough, but when a teacher becomes a coach and an advisor, he has quite a job. This year we have chosen the person whom we think has one of the biggest and most varied jobs in school. He has coached our basketball and baseball teams with enthusiasm for many years. He has traveled all over Westem North Carolina scouting for football games, so the Bearcats would know what plays to use against their opponents. In coaching the junior Varsity football team, he has prepared many boys for varsity action. His humorous stories have won the attention of all the students, yet when they leave his room each day, after Chemistry or General Science, they have learned something more from the book. When the Guidance Advisor left last spring, it was he who stepped into the vacant spot and filled it. His excellent sportsmanship is an example to all who know him, and he seldom tums down the chance to do a good tum. With these and many other thoughts in mind, we dedicate this, the 1953 Bearcat to YOU, MR. J. V. MILLS Mr. Mills was born in Stanfield, North Carolina, and attended the Stanfield High School until his graduation. In the fall following his graduation from high school, he entered Pfeiffer junior College, where he studied for two years before entering Lenoir Rhyne College in Hickory. He earned his Master of Arts degree in English at Appalachian State Teachers College. Before coming to Lenoir in january of 1945, Mr. Mills taught in Oxford, North Carolina, and Union County High School. He also served three and one-half years in the United States Coast Guard during World War II until the Thanks- giving before he came to Lenoir. Mr. Mills was employed at Lenoir High School as the basketball and baseball coach, and as a science teacher. He now coaches basketball, baseball, and junior varsity football, is Guidance Director, and teaches General Science and Chemistry. , . . LL tt Left to right, top row: Mr. E. C.

ADMINISTRATION We had four new additions to our fine faculty this year, Mr. Abernathy, Mr. Smith, Mr. Wilson, and Mr. Wooley. Mr. Abernathy teaches math and general science, Mr. Smith, the commercial subjects. He was also faculty advisor for the annual staff this year.

The thing that stands out most vivid when we think of Elementary learning is putting our little feet right outv for Mr. Kincaid. Then came junior High School and between dodging two-by-four's, ten penny nails, plumbers, and electricians we delved into the task of higher leaming. As the fall of 1949 rolled around we swallowed hard, took a firm grip on our- selves and sallied forth to become a part of High School. With High School came the football games, dances and always the routine of classroom naps. We learned that when we were told to do a thing we had better do it or else we were Sent to the office and Mr. Lentz for a lesson in discipline. We also leamed that Mr. Mack Cook was one of the best teachers, that L. H. S. employed. After we receive our diplomas and walk down the aisle-full-fledged high school graduates-we remember the years however strenuous, that we sang the praises of Lenoir High School. We go into the world to expound our learning and gain by it greater knowledge which lies ahead. PAITY MosER 1 4 PAULINE ADAMS I have no mockings or arguments, I watch and wait.

FRESHMEN WE POOR---' On a few following pages you will see the pictures of us poor Freshmen. The morning school opened for the '52-'53 term, we entered the door for our first year at Lenoir High School. The rumors we had heard about Freshmen being trampled over had most of us shaking in our shoes.. After coming short of the room we wished to find or going too far for several days, we finally learned our way around and fell into the daily, sometimes interrupted, routine of the school. We have a well-rounded class consisting of band members, several football and basketball players, others entering into things not too specific, and, as is the usual case, a few who just donit seem to care much about anything. As this year has passed, we have learned a little more about the confused, rushed world in which we live. We are outgrowing many of the things which encompassed us in our childhood and are beginning to take a more intelligent outlook on life. Most of the subjects we have fallen heir to had us bewildered for a few days, until we suddenly realized they are only more complicated forms of the fundamentals we learned in grammar school. As we become upper-classmen, weill probably look back on those Freshman,' days as the most confusing ones in high school. SARAH LEE DODGE -f 5355.

Its purpose is to develop a more effective spirit of cooperation between students and faculty, to strive to build up school spirit, loyalty, and good will among the students and to foster school sentiments rather than to rule as a dominating force in school life working toward a more perfect co-ordination in study, in activities, and in the social life of the students. The Student Council consists of two represent- atives from each major school organization and one representative from each minor organization. All members of the Student Council must have a scholastic average of not less than B and a citizenship average of not less than A. Officers of the Student Body are elected in April, in elections carrying much excitement and ballyhoo. Seated: Reva Miller and Eddie Smith Standing: Mebane Pritchett and Little Howard.

Therefore, those eligible for membership must rank high in scholarship, leadership, service, and strength of character. Also, candidates for election in this chapter must stand in the upper fourth of their class and must have attended Lenoir High School at least one year.

Throughout the year, the society contributes to worthy causes and aids various charities. 46 GLEE CLUB The Lenoir High Glee Club, directed by Mr. George Kirsten, is one of the most outstanding groups in school. This year eighty-five student voices blended together to make one of the best glee clubs of all times. Every year the glee club presents two concerts in the school auditorium, consisting of sacred, secular and seasonal music. At other times dur- ing the year they entertain various clubs and organizations. This year, for the first time, the club were privileged to wear robes.

This is the oldest high school band in the state and since its origin it has been under the direction of Capt. james C. Harper. Capt. Harper is one of the nation's most outstanding bandmasters and he has won wide recognition for his work in producing a band in a smaller school which can compete against bands from much larger schools and come out on top. The Lenoir band has obtained a first place rating in the highest class of bands at state contests for eighteen consecutive years and even before, it obtained top ratings in lower classes. Each year, in addition to the state contest, the band gives four concerts. These are all composed of enjoyable music and are priceless to the members. Band members learn to depend on themselves and they work hard to give their best to the support of the band. There is great promise in the bands to come. Each year the enrollment is increasing and likewise the interest of the general public. With our present faculty and equipment great strides are being made towards making each of the future bands the best one yet . r- Slamiing: Floyd Boston, Sccrctaryg Tommy Sl BAND Sea cd Gene Barrier, Vice-Presidentg Eleanor Powell, Co respondent Paul Hedrick, President.

Seniors are taken in at the fall initiation, juniors in the spring. Each new member must be nominated and voted in during the business session of the appointed meeting. The President for the next year is elected at the last regular meeting for the year. He is elected from the junior class by the seniors.

People who take Latin. When second year Latin begins in the fall, the first question Miss Haley hears is: When are we going to Biltmore, and will we get to see Caesar's bath tub? Near the end of November someone says, We want to sing. Sing what? Christmas carols-in Latin, of course. Miss Haley, when are we going to start writing the skit for the assembly program? asks a person with a big imagination. Are we going to use popular songs and change the words to suit us or are we going to use modern teen-talk? Let's use both, it will be much better. When are we going to have our visit with Colonel Brady? Will we see him when we go to Asheville to the Biltmore Estate? What book did he write? Caesar's Gallic Campaigns. The Latin Club is made up of two groups: Caesarites QEt tu Brutej and Ciceronians CO Temporal O Moreslj. The local club, S. P. R., is a charter member of the North Carolina junior Classical League.

C. McCall, 1. V. Mills, Soup Porter, Preston Mull, Superintendent Hagaman, Beef johnson, and Mr. Cook. The field was dedicated to 81 year old Mr. Mack Cook, a long-time Bearcat fan. Mr. Cook, who has worked at LHS for the past twenty-two years, has probably seen more Bearcat grid games than any other Lenoir fan. He worked to prepare the athletic field. for this year's game. The new field, now Cook Stadium, is believed to be one of the finest high school fields in western North Carolina. It is the first time the Bearcats have had a field to use exclusively for football. HOMECOMING Sybil Shuford, a popular sophomore, was crowned Queen of the Homecoming football game on November 14, 1952. Before the game each sponsor with her escort marched to the center of the field and then to the sidelines until time for the Coronation festivities to begin. At the half-time under cover of dark- ness the Lenoir High School Band, after a short drill, formed a huge heart with the junior Band making the arrow through it. When they had turned on the tiny, red lights on their caps, the band played the familiar I Had a Dream. Then with the spotlight tumed on the center of the heart where the Queen stood, they played Oh, You Beautiful Doll. After that the lights were turned back on and the spectators saw the Queen with her attendants grouped around her. At that the band broke into Let Me Call You Sweet- heart. The climax of the evening came when Mr. Lentz, the princi al, placed the crown upon the heacfy of Sybil Shuford.

These students marshal at all the band and glee club concerts, plays, and other school functions. This year there has been the added feature of marshaling at football games in the reserved seat section of the new Cook Stadium. The duties of a marshal are not only giving out pro- grams and ushering, but also each marshal is responsible for creating a friendly attitude and an understanding of school spirit among Lenoir High students and the citizens of our community. 62 r . , ff'- .- ,vl 54-.

With a light and aggressive team they won nine regular season games and lost one. They also won one post- season battle. In the conference the Bearcats won tilts from Morganton, Rutherfordton, Hickory, Cherryville, Shelby, Belmont, Marion, and Forest City, but they were stopped by a strong Newton-Conover team. In non-coference games they defeated Valdese and Children,s Home. With hope in their hearts, the Bearcats went to Morganton for the opening contest and outfought a spirited team, 13-0. Having been beaten by Valdese in '51, they de- feated the Tigers at home by an 18-12 score, giving the Bearcats the re- venge they sought. At Rutherfordton they won against a larger team, 18-0. The team received a thrill when they journeyed to Hickory and defeated the Red Tornadoes, their traditional archrivals, 25-19, after the Tornadoes led at the half, 12-6. Newton-Conover came to Lenior the next week and, much to the Lenoir fans' dismay, defeated the 'Cats, 21-12, the only Bearcat loss of the year. In the Shelby game at Lenoir, one of the Lions took the opening kickoff and ran for a TD. But with fighting hearts, the Bearcats defeated the Lions, 24-21. At Belmont the next week they routed the Red Raiders by a score of 38-12. On Halloween the Bearcats traveled to Marion where the Rippers gave them a scare before the game ended 13-7, another B e a r c at victory. After Cherryville's homecoming festivities, the Bearcats swamped a weak Iron- men team, 32-14. In the last regular season game-and the Homecoming game-the Bearcats met Forest City. The Colden Tornadoes were jolted by the Lenior team, 32-7. Lenoir, representing the Western Conference, and Childrens' Home of Winston-Salem, representing the South Piedmont Conference, played in Lenoir for the WNCHSAA title. The Bearcats came out ahead, 25-19. Co-captain Howard, s t a l w a r t tackle, brought additional glory to the team by playing in two post- season bowl games, the Optimist Bowl at Asheville and the Shrine Bowl at Charlotte. He was also nam- ed on the second string all-state team. Captain A. C. Jonas, speedy half- back, was also named on the Optimist Bowl squad, but was unable to par- ticipate due to physical condition. Emmett Stevens, the very capable quarterback, compiled a sensational record for 1952 by passing for over 1000 yards in nine games. He com- pleted 62 passes in 102 attempts. Jonas averaged a first, down every time he carried the ball from scrim- mage by running up 1047 yards rush- ing in 100 tries for a 10.4 average. Left Io rigbl: Coaches Wilson, Cross and Mills.

H. S. was a very successful one. The team had compiled an 8-5 won-lost mark with four games remaining, but had won seven consecutive conference games. The discovery of Nancy Woodruff, sophomore, by Coach Warlick was the greatest factor for the success of the 1953 team. Nancy scored 50 points in one single game, breaking the former girls' scoring record of 38 points. The seniors on the squad were Captain Sylvia Correll, Marlene Rhodes, Billie Joyce Smith, and Reba Adkins. 1953 SCHEDULE Lenoir Wilkes Central 29 Lenoir Morganton 40 Lenoir Wilkes Central 31 Lenoir Hickory 59 Lenoir Camewell 39 Lenoir Rutherfordton 47 Lenoir Rutherfordton 53 Lenoir Belmont 49 Lenoir Morganton 26 Lenoir Newton-Conover Lenoir Hickory 62 Lenoir Marion Lenoir Lincolnton 69 Lenoir Belmont Lenoir Newton-Conover 45 Lenoir Lincolnton Lenoir Marion 48 Left to right: jack Carlton, Dick Martin, Willis Setzer, A.
