Mr. Aaron Fussell Superintendent of Wake County Schools Representing the diverse elements which make up the school community, the members of the Advisory Council, in co¬ operation w i t h the Superinten¬ dent and Principal, worked to help Vaiden Whitley grow in educational status. It was their desire that it be the best of schools —offering the most for its stu¬ dents. 11 Staff Mrs. Gertrude Tisdale School Secretary Besides keeping track of all the numerous form s necessary for smooth operation, the school secretary published the daily bul 1 e t in, kept records, did bookkeeping, and attended tothemany other details of running the office. In the library students and teachers alike found resources for preparing les¬ sons. The librarian supervised the use and circulation of more than five thou¬ sand books, as well as the many period¬ icals and audio-visual aids. The Guidance Department, using the latest methods for discovering a stu¬ dent ' s potential, encouraged him to de¬ velop that potential by presenting oppor¬ tunities and by counseling individuals Learning from the past was the aim of the Social Studies Department. In United States and world history, students learned of the great accomplishments and mistakes of man ' s past. Other courses dealt with the organization and structure of society.

Lenn United States History, World History By the use of tapes, record¬ ings, and the new language laboratory, the Language De¬ partment encouraged its stu¬ dents to become proficient in the foreign languages, Spanish and French. The Business Department through its program of typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, and office practice prepared stu¬ dents for jobs and business schools. Realizing the increasing demand for perfection in both oral and written communica¬ tion, the English Department worked toward mastery of mechanics and com postion skills.

Developing physical as well as mental skills by participation in team and individual sports was the aim of the Physical Education Department. Mr. John L. Perkinson General Horticulture, Science-Mechanics The Vocational De - partment sought to develop skills to prepare students for profitable careers or an equally rewarding life as a homemaker. Drafting, In¬ dustrial Cooperative Train¬ ing, Auto Mechanics, and a variety of agriculture-re¬ lated courses readied stu¬ dents for work or further study after graduation. Girls learn¬ ed not only the art of cook¬ ing and sewing but also the secrets of providing a whole¬ some homelife. The Music Department dealt with less tangible talents.

The Student Council of Vaiden Whitley High School is an integral part of the school ' s educa¬ tional program and is representative of the entire student body. Throughout the year it recognized astudent, or students, of the month with a special bulletin board display and operated the school store as a special school service. On the other hand, some projects were seasonal: assisting with Homecoming activities in the fall, giving a Christmas party for the faculty and staff, and sponsoring an Orientation Day for incoming fresh¬ men and participating in the national project Keep America Beautiful in the spring.

Last spring the band traveled to Chadbourn, North Caro¬ lina, for the Strawberry Festival and represented the Wake County Shrine Club at the opring Cere¬ monial in Fayetteville. In the fall the band partic¬ ipated in the Wendell Har¬ vest Festival Parade. The Christmas season brought invitations from the Wake Forest, Zebulon, Angier, Apex, and Raleigh Christ¬ mas parades. The Concert Band per¬ formed on two occasions. At Christmas they and the Chorus presented a program of seasonal music. In the spring the band gave its own concert. Participation in the Regional Band con¬ test at Greenville in April climaxed the year ' s act iv¬ ities. In 1967 the group received a rating of Good. Combining their ef¬ forts, the band and chorus in the spring converted the Whitley Auditorium into a miniature Hollywood Palace and produced a variety show which ran for two evenings before a packed auditorium.

Its performing season started with a series of Christmas Con¬ certs at neighboring schools. The holiday programs over, work began in preparation for the District Contest in March. In 1967 at this event the group received a rating of Good. Concluding the year ' s activities were the Variety Show and the Spring Concert. Sixteen persons comprised the Mixed Ensemble which represented the school at a wide variety of functions. Mem - bers performed for civic clubs, appeared in concerts at Christmas and in the spring, and took part in the Gradua¬ tion Exercises at Whitley. In February the Ensemble also competed in the Solo and Ensemble Contest, at which last year ' s group received a rating of Superior.

In the beginning its interest centered on pan- tomimes, which were humerous examples of spontaneous acting by the individual members. By December the group was ready to give several one- act plays. Among these were Flying High and Love From Bud. The remaining meetings were involved with speech making and the writing of skits. All these activities enabled the club to realize its major goal-encouraging use of talents and perfor¬ mance with self-confidence before groups. 31 Future Homemakers of America Collecting food for needy fam¬ ilies and scraps of fabrics to be used by residents of the County Home in making of quilts were two of the most rewarding projects of the Future Homemakers Club. They also aided school and community organizations by serving and decorating for dinners and banquets. In late summer some of the girls assisted in hanging drapes in the School Offices and the Home Economics Classrooms. Engaging in such activities enabled the members to establish important patterns for future homemaking and community participation—the major goals of this group.

To promote an interest in the health-related careers was a major project of the club. Mem¬ bers presented a program on this topic and also attended the D i s t r i c t Health Fair at Hon College. At this meeting they heard experienced persons discuss the various health careers and viewed exhibits related to these careers. Continuation of the land¬ scaping of the area adjoining the main en¬ trance to the campus was a second project of the club. Bulbs were planted to enhance the natural beauty of that area.

Through an investigation of Newton ' s Law of Gravitation, members learned about the birth of Cal- culas. They gained an under¬ standing of the use of geometric principles and m e thods em¬ ployed by Eratosthenes in cal¬ culating the circumference of the earth. The use of computers in modem day life was studied. In addition to these activities, members became acquainted with noted mathematicians and the various fields of math¬ ematics as well as unique forms of problem solving. 37 Future Teachers of America In its efforts to pro¬ mote and to encourage interest in teaching, the Future Teachers Club Gayle Honeycutt teaches first-year presented programs con- Spanish students from Oir y Hablar _ . cerning the role of the teacher. By attending the State and County Conventions, members also added to their knowledge of the re¬ sponsibilities and duties of the teacher. An out¬ standing meeting of t h e club in the spring had as its featured speaker a representative of the North Carolina Educa¬ tion Association. Projects executed by the group during the year were providing teacher assistants, hon¬ oring Whitley teachers on their special day, and decorating bulletin boards.

Teachers confer with parents in the halls.. . and in the class rooms. 57 Outstanding Seniors After careful consideration, the faculty chose eight seniors who best depicted these qualities: special service, capable leadership, excellent scholarship, and outstanding character. Samuel Attison Pittman Sammy Pittman represented Whitley in an outstanding manner in two varsity sports. He was voted Most Valuable Player in football for 1966-67 and in track for 1965-66. Highlighting his 1967-68 season was his being selected All- Conference Fullback. Sammy was also a credit to the Music Department in both the Mixed Chorus and Ensemble. Other services were rendered in the Beta Club and Mono¬ gram Club. He plans to enter a Military College, where he aspires to further his football career. Jeffrey Douglas Heath Jeff represented the school in several capacities on a district, county, and local level. In the Beta Club he served as local Vice-President for two years, as County and District President, and as Marshal at the State Con¬ vention. Four years ' membership in the FFA provided opportunities for service in the local Chapter as Reporter and President and in the Federation as Reporter and Vice - President. In athletics he lettered in football and baseball for four years, and basketball for three years. Jeff also worked on the Annual Staff for two years. Upon gradua¬ tion, he plans to pursue the vocation of Furniture Manage¬ ment and Manufacturing in the School of Engineering at North Carolina State University. 58 William Walter Perkinson Bill was active in many areas of high school life.

An exceptional member of the Chorus and Ensemble, she often did vocal solos and piano accompaniment. In the Beta Club she served as Program Chairmanfor 1967-68 and as Secretary of the local FHA.

This year he was a representative of the club to the State Beta Club Convention because of his work in its Christmas card drive.
