r 1958 Falcon Published by the Senior Class York High School, Yorktown, Virginia I 3 Falcons, we have been for four short years, and now we stand, seventy-two strong, at the threshold of life ' s door. Looking back is fun. The memories of those four years are happy, alive, per- haps even sad. Looking ahead is a chal- lenge. To meet it bravely, ever ready to fly to greater heights, has been our goal this past year as we prepared for our final leaving. In later years, while turn- ing these pages, if you should rec all the many smiles, sorrows, and dreams of 58, we shall be content, knowing that we, the FALCON staff, have done the thing we were called upon to do.

ADMINISTRATION t f P Superintendent s Message MR. SAMUEL C. MORGAN Superintendent of Schools The members of the Senior Class, 1958, York High School, have demonstrated that they really know how to live. To this end I would urge each member to continue to improve his knowledge and ability, to develop his soul in greatness and to build up a personality that is brave, pure, true, beautiful, strong and god -like. Remember, it is not what you may do in life, but how you do it. It is not what you may see, but how you react to what you observe. Money or the lack of it will affect your happiness but little, for you will get out of life just what you put into it. Supervision and Other members of the York County School Board are; Mr. T. W. Antoniewicz, Grafton District; Mrs. Mary E. Holloway, Bethel District; and Mr. E. F. Gallimore, Bruton District. Mr. John P. Wornom, Chairman York County School Board. Mr. Wornom, represents the Nelson District. 6 Principal’ s Message Congratulations to the Annual staff and the class of 1958. You are the first class that has completed four years of high school work in York High School. It has been wonderful to work with you during the past four years and I wish for you a most successful future as you leave our school. May God be with you in all your future endeavors. Administration MR, T. H. GILLIS Principal We appreciate the untiring devotion of our school secretary, Mrs. Doris Barnes, and would like to express our appreciation by saying, Thank you very much - from all of the seniors of 1958. 7 Faculty MR.

As I was walking down the street I saw. a large sign which read The Great Soothsayer. Well, I was very much in need of a fortune I went up to the door and walked in. I found myself in a very large, kind of weird room. All sorts of felt a cold clammy hand on my shoulder. I jumped, yelled, and turned around. I found myself face to face with a tall, thin man. He had on a costume that I had always imagined fortune tellers would wear. He had a thin veil across his fa ce. I then proceeded to explain to him that I wanted to know my fortune and especially where my ring was. He said that he would be glad to help me, but first he would have to trace my past and the people I had known before he could look into the future. He then told me to sit down and relax completely. I sat opposite him at a great round table. He got his crystal ball and began to speak, Ah, yes he said, I see by my crystal ball that you are from what used to be known as Yorktown, Virginia, but is now the state of Yorktown. Now, he said, I ' ll go back a ways, and see about your background and friends. I see by my magic ball that quite a few of your friends are now married, Mary Ammons now has six little girls, and Nancy Rowe has her own base- ball team composed of nine boys. I see that Betty Wood has married a millionaire. There are Carol Tomlinson, Lillie Dryden and Diana Sullivan at the bank cashing their husbands ' checks. Elizabeth Cunningham and Elaine Smeds have certainly made the grade. Elizabeth is a famous writer known for her book, GONE WITH THE MILK WAGON. Elaine is a famous chemist. Phyllis Shelton has certainly settled down. She says all she wants to do is stay home and take cate of Roane, Jr. I see, also, a lot of your friends are in the government now. Shirley Lindsay is Treasurer of the United States. Virginia Brandt has two jobs. She is the Secretary to the President and she also has to chauffeur her husband around as he loses his license so often. Beverly Head is now ambassador to Italy. Catherine Hogge has collected money on bottles so long that she finally bought her own company, so she could deposit bottles at any time. Joan Wilson is President of her company.

This year the S.C.A. sponsored a magazine campaign to raise money for shrubbery for the school grounds, a Thanksgiving food drive, a Christmas Dance, the school handbook, an inter-club council, juke box, and worked on preparing an activities program for next year. All assemblies, as well as Career and Education Days are planned by S.C.A. Committees. Our president, Dicky Bryant, said, I have greatly enjoyed serving as student body president. I wish to thank the members of the S.C.A. council for their support and enthusiasm in all our projects. 1, also would like to thank the faculty for their guidance and patience in our behalf.

The Falcon Staff Under the capable leadership of our editor, Elizabeth Cunningham, our sponsor, Mrs. Frances Burruss, and our advisor, Mrs. Elizabeth Smith, we struggled and finally produced a record of happenings at York for the year of 1958. Our first job was selling ads. Next came the scheduling of pictures, and later we started working on the heart of the annual. One big job was writing copy. This took a lot of time, thought, chewed pencils, and often frayed nerves, A familiar scene during third or sixth period this year has been in Room 102 where Betsy, Phyllis, and Connie puzzled over the problem of layout or expense account, as shown here. We have all worked hard on this 1958 edition of the FALCON. We hope you like it. SITTING, left to right; G. Keckler, Photographer; P. Shelton, Business Manager; J. Paulette, Organization Manager; P.

When we played our first game with Gloucester, we had a lot of followers. Our team was one of the powerhouses of Group II and we were flying high until the flu bug hit us. We lost one game and tied another. Finally, when we got back on our feet, we did win the last game, but as a result, none of our players made the all-peninsula group one team. This year we had five seniors on the team. We are looking forward to a very successful sea- son next year. Coaches Red Simpson, Walter Smith, and James Bishop discuss new tactics with managers Woody Carmines and Gene Tweedie.

It ' s been a busy year for them. They had to organize a com- pletely new squad in getting ready to cheer by the first game and sponsoring the annual Football Dance. Congratulations on a job well done!

We won four confer- ence games which entitled us to an opportunity to play in the tournament. There were no all-season captains, but the team elected a new captain for each game. York made a fine showing in spite of practically an all-new team. We look forward to a great basketball season next year.

Under the leadership of Coach Sarah Green, the team spent many hours practicing and learning plays. Although the girls were handicapped from lack of experience, they worked hard all season, showing fine sportsmanship in each game. With each game the team gained more experience and picked up new tactics and ideas that will benefit them next year. The team consisted of a large number of Freshman and Sophomore girls which look like good prospects for the coming years at York. With the knowledge they have now and the experience they picked up this season they will have a hard time being defeated. The Falconettes will lose five of their players after graduation. They are Co- Captain Virginia Johnson, Co-Captain Dorothy Camden, Phyllis Shelton, Betty Wood, and Arlene Hicks. The Falconettes lost several of their games by only a few points and they ended the season by winning the last game with Chuckatuck, a much deserved victory for the girls and their coach. Congratulations to both! Good Spirit VIRGINIA JOHNSON, Forward DOROTHY GILBERT, Forward V FRONT ROW, left to right: S. Lindsay, A. Rowe, R. Loeffler, J. Day, I. Siegle, N. Palmer, P. Killian, A.
