For Reference Not to be taken from this library THE SENIOR CLASS of YORK HIGH SCHOOL YORKTOWN, VIRGINIA presents THE FALCON . ,V ' i I Editor— Jeff Shields Assistant Editor— Carol Meyer Business Manager— Peggy Wheeler Foreword If one were to map out the years of one student at YHS, the itinerary would follow many small paths and wide ave- nues. There are, however, certain roads which we all travel during our five years of high school. Our pilgrimage began as eighth graders, a little wary of our new role, on the Path of Timidity. As freshmen we joined clubs, made friends and journeyed down School Spirit Street. In our Sophomore year we finally made ourselves a part of York High and en- joyed a stroll down Sense of Belonging Lane. When we became juniors we were filled with excitement at the promise of things to come on our jaunt down Antici- pation Avenue. Finally, our senior year ar- rived. As we traveled along Complacency Court we found that, like many long- awaited events, it was a disappointment to some. But we ultimately reached our goal: the Boulevard of Achievement. We, the 1965 Falcon staff, invite you now to travel with us through the school year ' 64- ' 65 and to stop along the roads we have traveled to review the scenes and events which will make this year linger in the memories of the students of YHS. 2 3 YORK (Right) Front entrances (Far right) Rear view T-yO.- 4 HIGH SCHOOL YORKTOWN, VIRGINIA ' Wm i SisSS SSE� ’f ss� 9 80 SSSgSSi aiSP CONTENTS SPECIALS ACADEMICS CLASSES ACTIVITIES ATHLETICS ADVERTISEMENTS INDEX Page 8 Page 22 Page 56 Page 136 Page 184 Page 210 Page 239 In Appreciation As high school students we came, seeking an educa- tion, but found confronting us an apparently awesome task. It seemed there was so much to learn that we often- times felt like giving up or doing our work half-way. Many teachers helped us during these days, but looking back, one stands out as being quite dedicated to the end that we should learn just a little bit more, just a little bit better, and in this way she conscientiously prepared us not only for our future years of schooling, but for the life that lies ahead. In the midst of a difficult exam or a difficult course, we did not realize that this difficulty might have been the best experience for us. It was not until much later when, reflecting upon earlier years, that we did appreciate this teacher who taught us to persevere and challenged us to greater endeavor. It is with these thoughts in mind that we, the Senior Class, do dedicate the 1965 FALCON to Mrs. Virginia Brown. 6 Mrs. Virginia Brown 1 7 ■•Kvsii SPECIALS school year of 1964-65. Assemblies, proj- ects, contests, awards, and lovely stu- dents, such as Amy Emerson, graced our journey and somehow made it shorter and much more enjoyable.

The play, a comedy of manners, con- cerns the misadventures of two college students who attempt to lure their girl-friends to their apart- ment in order that they might propose. The pro- duction met with great success, a tribute to the cast of hard workers who presented the play.

It is the duty of the administra- tion to help construct the road of educa- tion and to keep it well-paved. Our teach- ers guided and pointed out the road signs along our way. The office staff aided us by innumereble services which made traveling easier for the students of York High.

JANE K. OWENS B.A. Bethany College M.A. New York University Director of Guidance Department The Guidance Department registers all students who enter York each year. In the Eighth Grade the student is assisted in planning his subjects and in working out his entire high school course. Then, each year he proceeds to select those sub- jects required and to elect those which he feels he would like to take. The guid- ance counselor helps him get these courses and also helps him adjust to his classes, if he should have difficulties. If the student during the year has problems which he wishes to discuss with an adult, the counselors help in every way possible. The counselors also administer all required standardized tests and College Boards and interpret the scores to the individual stu- dent. Finally, the Department sponsors two special days during the year: Education Day for juniors and seniors for the selec- tion of a college; and Career Day involv- ing all students for the selection of a ca- reer.

Specifically, the main emphasis in the eighth grade has been in the area of Ian- ■ guage usage, whereas in the ninth and tenth grades the emphasis is equally di- : vided between language and literature.

All eighth graders take a course in Math fundamentals, but those who have an aptitude in Math pur- sue one track while others may elect an- other direction. Those with special ability in math will take Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II and in the twelfth grade may j elect Trigonometry, Analytic Geometry or even a semester each of Probability and Calculus. Those who want some math but I are unable to progress at a fast pace may proceed more slowly, electing as many or as few of the various courses offered to fifty highly selected eighth graders to eli- minate the doubling up now necessary | in the senior year.

Longwood College Biology Sponsor Science Club 36 Physical Environment Science is a significant part of the life of every individual; it is becoming more and more important that students understand the ways in which the con- tributions of science affect man ' s living. It is also essential that students have I an understanding and appreciation of I their physical environment, and the in- I creasing complexities of the space age I make it imperative that science be em- I phasized in the school program. With i these conditions in mind the Science ! Department offers eight courses; general I science, earth science, living science, I biology, chemistry, physics, advanced I science, and psychology. General science I and one other course are required for I graduation; however, three or four years . of science are recommended for most I students. Students with special aptitude in the field of science are given an op- ( portunity to serve as lab assistants. � Furthermore, each year the Department I holds a Science Fair, at which time stu- dents display their special projects and enter the competition which can take the winner to the Tidewater, Regional and even to the National Science Fairs. I York has now had six students to enter I the National Science Fair. (Left) Mrs. Charlton teaches her eager chemis- try students by example (Upper left) Doctor Jekyll or Mr. Hyde?

Social Studies Department Seeks to Develop an Effective and Useful Citizenry (Left) How would you like hold hands with a scrub brush? to (Right) Mrs. Hansford departs from her busy schedule to plan the details of the Senior govern- ment trip Our broad purpose, is to train the young folks, who come into the classes in our department, .to be effective and useful citizens of the Republic. This involves us in telling them of our rich heritage, the ideals of our Democratic way, and the rights and dignity of each person. Also we try to help them understand the poli- tical, economic, and social institutions with which they will live. On the very practical side, social studies classes help the student understand the events in our world today. Courses are offered in Eighth Grade his- tory, World geography. World history, Virginia and U.S. history, and Vir- ginia and U.S. government. To graduate, a York student must complete three of these courses. If he wishes to, he may take a social studies class each of his five years. The Eighth Grade history is purely an elective and deals with American His- tory. The emphasis is on the colonial and early national periods. Either world ge- ography or world history is required. They help to open the doors to appreciating other peoples and other lands. Virginia and U.S. history is required in the Junior year and Virginia and U.S. government is a Senior required course. The student needs these courses to become an effec- tive and useful citizen and a good, intelli- gent American. ■i J I I i MR. ROBERT L.

MARY CALDWELL B.S., College of William and Mary Home Economics, Biology Sponsor of Beta Club MISS LILLIAN ANN DIX B.S., Mary Washington College Home Economics Sponsor of FHA, Head of Department The Home Economics program at York High School consists of teaching home- making at four levels. During each year of homemaking, students work on four or five units from the following basic areas: foods and nutrition, clothing and textiles, family health and safety, home management, child development, personal development, housing and home furnish- ings, and family finance. The course con- tent for each year is broadened in scope and depth and builds upon learnings ac- quired at previous levels. Work on these units represents the utilization of skills as well as human relations and decision making. Homemaking classes delve into the principles and reasons behind the everyday skills used in the home. The Home Economics Education Division of Vocational Education, State Department of Education published a curriculum outline for homemaking teachers entitled, A Guide to Planning Homemaking Education Programs in Virginia High Schools. The guide suggests certain units of material for each of the years of homemaking of- fered. Each unit is composed of a group of closely related activities and experiences dealing with some problems and projects selected to accomplish specific obiectives. Although the state guide is used, each teacher adapts the course outline to her particular situation. 40 Industrial Arts Department Includes Advanced Electronics MR. B. C.

The Electronics program can begin in the sophomore year with enrollment in an exploratory course which en- deavors to enlighten the student as to opportunities in the field of electronics. It also acquaints the student with basic electronic compone nts and tools and affords him the op- portunity of working with these in the assembly of cir- cuits. In his junior and senior year the student may elect to take the vocational or pre-technical course. This course consists of three hours per day of electronics theory, lab- oratory exercises, and related subjects including mathe- matics and physics. Completion of this course gives the student an excellent foundation in basic electronics. He may then continue in more advanced electronics study in our post-graduate school or may elect to take a full time job and continue his education in our evening program. 41 Fine Arts Department Gains Prestige for the School Fine Arts Department includes music and art courses offered. The band classes, taught by Mr. Borlawsky, supply the mem- bers of the York High Band. In addition to band, vocal music is also taught. These students make up the Glee Club or Choral Groups. All music students are involved in performing at many extracurricular ac- tivities throughout the community and in this way create prestige for the school. The Art classes also influence the reputa- tion of the school, for these furnish many of the attractive displays and the beautiful bulletin boards throughout the building. At Christmas, especially, the classroom doors afford an elaborate and scintillating sight. MRS. NANCY ANDRESS B.S. Bowling Green University Chorus Sponsor of Glee Club MR. DANIEL BORLAWSKY B.S.

Cheerleaders, Junior Class MRS. HELEN HOLBEN B.A. College of William and Mary Latin Sponsor of Latin Club The Foreign Language Department of York High School offers to the students four languages: Latin, French, Ger- man and Spanish. These provide a minimum sequence of 3 years of study in one foreign language. The extension of the sequence is determined by the interest and enroll- ment of students in a particular language course. The basic course in any language offered here at York includes those forms and structures which are most frequent in the lan- guage. During the first and second years, the courses af- ford the student command of the elementary phases of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Through the lan- guage laboratory he can practice and master correct pro- nunciation and intonation. Advanced courses place more emphasis on the reading and writing of the language. The students become familiar with the philosophy of other peo- ple through the selected readings which they study. 43 MRS. MYRTLE G.

MISS RUTH WILLIAMS B.A. Mary Washington College French Sponsor of Junior Class DE and VOT Afford Practice While Training . SitoP Distributive Education The cooperative DE program at York derives its name from the joint working arrangement between the school and distributive businesses on the peninsula. The stu- dent receives classroom instruction directly related to retail, wholesale, and service fields. At the same time he acquires work-experience and further training with the businessman who provides part-time employment for which the student receives school credit plus pay. DE is not an employment service for students merely seeking part-time or after school jobs. It is an integral part of the total school program and has specific educa- tional objectives. Although the primary objective of the program is to prepare youth for full-time employment in distributive occupations, it also serves as a background for those who plan advanced training at the college level in business administration, marketing land related fields. (Left) Mr. Miller instructs students on proper showcase display. Vocational Office Training Like the DE, VOT is an integral part of the total school program. The stu- dent receives classroom instruction and then reports to an assigned business- man to work in some secretarial or busi- ness capacity. (Right) Bonnie Adams and Lynn Goens prepare in the classroom before reporting to work in the afternoon. 44 Business Education Trains in Vocational Skills MRS. GENEVIEVE COPLEY B.S.

One-semester courses in Personal Typewriting and Notehand are available to seniors. Business Educa- tion students are encouraged to continue their educa- tion beyond high school. Training in basic economics and vocational skills contributes to intelligent living and citizenship. This training will provide a livelihood or smile. maybe a source of income to further educational and personal goals. . I Physical Education Physical Education is a required course for all stu- dents in the eighth, ninth and tenth grades, but the course may be elected at any grade level. The aims of the program at York are many and varied, for physical education is concerned with the social, mental and emo- tional development of students as well as with their physical development. In other words physical educa- tion is an integral part of education involving organiza- tion, instruction, participation and evaluation with the responsibility of developing physical fitness, skills in games, athletic sports and rhythmic activities so as to contribute to the total growth and development of all children and youth in the school.

School Nurs e Health Education An integral part of the Physical Education Department is the health education program supervised by Mrs. Beazley, the school nurse. In addition to this, a new method of caring for the students was initiated this year through the rise of a health suite. The health suite con- sists of an emergency room for boys and one for girls. Any student who is taken ill during the day may rest briefly before continuing his schedule or while waiting for his parents to come for him. No medical care is provided but emergency care is given in case of an ac- cident. A group of mothers who have received either Red Cross training or on-the-job training provide the clinics with continuous supervision. A registered nurse has been on duty three half days each week this past year. 47 Remedial Reading Speech and Library Remedial reading is a course elected by those students who need to improve in reading ability in order to progress in their regular classes. The reading teacher usually works with the English teachers in selecting pupils for this spe- cial class. Speech I or II may be taken in the tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades. Students comply with Shakespeare ' s ad- monition to: Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you, trip- pingly on the tongue, but if you mouth it, I had lief the town crier spake my lines — and all try not to mouth it as they perform in their speaking, debat- ing, group discussion, interpretative reading, acting, and parliamentary pro- cedure.

The library assistants are students who use their study hall period to assist the librarians in serving the student body and running the library effectively. These workers carry out assigned duties per- taing to the many phases of library work. By working in the library these students have the opportunity to learn more about the serivce and operation of their library. 49 York Has a Well-Rounded Sports Program I. Consisting of Seven Major Sports on All Levels York ' s sports program offers a boy an opportunity to participate in every major sport except swimming. In football and basketball a boy can participate in the 8th and 9th grades on the 8th and 9th grade teams. In the remaining sports: wrestling, baseball, track, tennis, golf, there are two levels, varsity and jun- ior varsity. During the football season which starts August 25 and lasts until mid November, we keep approximately 100 boys in uniform. Our varsity schedule consists of ten games; our junior varsity which is made up of 10th graders plays a six game schedule. Varsity basketball starts November 1 and lasts until the first of March. Both varsity and junior varsity teams play an 18 game schedule. The 8th and 9th grades play 12 games and here again we have a large number of boys participating. Wrestling also starts November 18 and ends the first of March. About thirty boys participate in this sport and a schedule of 14 matches usually makes up the season. Varsity baseball and track start March 1 and last until May 15. Both baseball and track have from 15—18 games or meets. Junior varsity baseball plays a ten game schedule. Golf started at York High School in 1964 on a varsity level. The sport has done well with great interest shown by the students. This year a 12 match schedule was arranged and our home matches will be played at Williamsburg Country Club. Tennis is our new sport which was initiated this spring 1965. All in all York affords an extensive sports extra-curricular program. (Far left) Greg Magee won the state 1-A championship in the high hurdles with a 14.6 second clocking.

For some whose organization membership is an outgrowth of a subject class, the avenue of further exploration opens up. For others whose participation springs from a special interest or hobby, the jour- ney down pleasure street proves indeed to be a delight. For still others whose talents lead toward administration, the trip through leadership lane is most re- warding. Cheryl Oliver and Kenneth Par- geter, seen left, are representative of all such tours one may take in activities at York. 137 Student SCA Officers: (Left to right) Ken Pargeter, president; Pat Konop- nicki, first vice-presi- dent; ' Linda Kanney, second vice-presi- dent; Cherryl Oliver, secretary; Mark Mer- anda, treasurer; Shar- on Reeder, reporter; Amy Emerson, chap- lain,- Rick Stearns, parliamentarian.

Throughout the first se- mester the SCA conducted projects, such as the new orien- tation system for transfer students, a PTA program. Federa- tion Exchange Day, and the Thanksgiving and Christmas Drives. After exams the Council began work on the new student handbook and sponsored the annual Miss York High Pageant. 139 JEAN COPLEY Advertising SUSAN YOUNG CLIFTON CREDLE MARY LEE DAWSON Staff Falcon Staff CHRIS GARRISON DEBBIE BELVIN Typists STEVE EMORY Staff PEGGY WHEELER Business Manager JOHN McDaniel S ports Editor 140 c::3. An annual is an attempt to give back to you a part of your memories of the past year and a pictorial account of the activities you participated in. This has been the ambition of the Annual Staff of York High School ' s Senior Class of 1965. As editor of the yearbook, I can appreciate the many problems that inevitably arise during the course of assembling a publication such as a yearbook, but the human side of the undertaking, working with others, gave me as much experience for life as I have ever gained before. I sometimes feel that being on the staff is equivalent to taking a course in diplomacy. There is no finer asset to an editor than a responsible, reliable staff, which I was most fortunate to have. All of them worked not only on their own particular assign- ment but on the total job of publishing the annual. Peggy Wheeler, our business manager, did a grand job keeping track of our various and sundry accounts as well as assisting in the organization. I am especially grateful to Judy Styne for her faith- ful work in heading the advertising. My thanks to Debbie Belvin and Chris Garrison, typists; Billy Adams, who planned and took pictures; to Jean Copley, circulation manager, who also planned the Senior Personality pictures; to John McDaniel, sports editor; to Junior Editors Peyton Powell and Lucy O ' Hara; and to Steve Emory, Mary Lee Dawson, and Clifton Credle, who gave much of their time to advertising. Last, but not least Carol Meyer, assistant editor, used her imaginative powers to write the copy for our yearbook. Finally, I would like to laud the sincere help of a dedicated sponsor, Mrs. Eliza- beth Smith. Certainly without her guidance, our yearbook could never have been published. We hope that you enjoy our efforts to give you a pictorial reminiscence of 1964 and 1965 at York High School. CAROL MEYER Assistant Editor 141 New Methods Plus New Paper Plus New Objectives equals a better TALON The Talon, York ' s newspaper, keeps the student body informed of news and events in the school. 1 strives to give a well- balanced picture of life at York, accenting not only athletics and outstanding per- sonalities but also scholastic achievement and courses offered at York. It is pub- lished monthly by the journalism class un- der the sponsorship of Mrs. Patricia Gib- son. Eight issues of the Talon are published yearly and subscriptions may be purchased at a dollar annually, or each issue may be bought individually for fifteen cents. In order to meet the cost of publication. Talon staff members solicited advertise- ments from local merchants and the Sen- ior class donated the proceeds of the Va- riety Show to help relieve the deficit of the Talon. During the year Talon staff members attended several high school press conferences where they learned new techniques of journalism and exchanged ideas with staff members from other schools. Talon sales have increased this year due to improved writing capabilities of the staff members, a more efficient production schedule and the better quality paper on which the Talon is pr inted.

The Eboracum, the literary magazine at York, is a selection ' of poetry, short stories, essays, speeches, drawings, and feature articles composed by the student body. This is the second year that the Eboracum has been a student publication. Formerly it was published by the English depart- ment under the title of Falconite. Articles are submitted by the student or through the English teachers; these are graded by the staff and the best are published in an annual issue. In May the issue is sold to students at a nominal price. Eboracum is the Celtic name for York. Mrs. Adelaide Maxwell is the faculty advisor.

The highlight of the year for the science club is the science fair and open house which is held in March. During this time the members and all other science students in the school are given the opportunity to display to the public the projects which they have worked on for the major portion of the year.

Through the efforts of the club a scholar- ship is given to a deserving senior each year. Qualifica- tions for membership include a 90 or above semester average, leadership, responsibility, and a commendable at- titude. Juniors and seniors are tapped in the fall, and sophomores are tapped in the spring.

Standing: Terry Nyhous, Suzanne Christmas, Ken Pargeter This year, by an overwhelming majority, the students of York High School voted to abolish the Honor Council and establish the Student Advisory Council. Elected by the students every two years, the Council members are the first and foremost link of communication between the stu- dent body and the faculty. The Council has tried to make the students become more aware of honor, integrity and self-discipline by presenting an assembly asking for the support of the student body and the faculty. The SAC has been given a permanent bulletin board and showcase to publicize the fact it is alive and working for the student body. The SAC is based on the hope that the individual student, if given the chance, will renounce dishonor and uphold the Honor Code. Thus, the Council endeavors to rehabilitate and help, not punish, the honor offender. The Council desires, furthermore, to create the closer relation- ship between students and faculty by attempting to raise the standards of conduct. 152 German Club: (First row) Mr. Horne, Bill Boyd, Rodney Bonck, John Higgins, Lorelei Bonck, John Hadden (Second row) Richard Faringer, John Hermerl, Jim Sayre, Peyton Powell, Jean Hudson, Joyce Shields, Steve Davis, Evelyn O ' Donnal ( Third row) Bill Newkirk, Mike Kincannon, Mary Craw, Brenda Gordon, Richard Gaifield, Susan Carter, Dwight Hogge (Above) German Club Officers: John Higgins, president; Bill Boyd, parliamentarian; Lorelei Bonck, secretary; Rod- ney Bonck, treasurer (Above right) German Club Banquet 153 Latin Club Develops Civic Mindedness Along 154 With Culture The Latin Club is an organization con- sisting of present and former Latin stu- dents. During the year there are such ac- tivities as the Latin Club Banquet— a small scale replica of the famous Roman feasts —and various programs presented at each meeting by some member of the Club. Also, the Latin Club was well represented at the SCA sponsored PTA and turned in a meritable performance at both the an- nual Thanksgiving and Christmas drives, along with helping a needy family at Christmas on their own. The aim of the Latin Club is not only to teach cultural background but to instill and promote civic mindedness in those of tomorrow ' s society.

The Club was founded on the principle of learning the customs and way of life of the Spanish-speaking peo- ple all over the world, and activities are especially coordinated to achieve this goal. One of the Spanish Club ' s most cherished projects was the Washington trip taken in the spring with the purpose of visiting the Spanish and Latin American embassies there. ’65 Chess Club Active (Above) Chess Club members: (Seated) Paul Harris, Tom Martin (Standing first row) Mike Thacker, Alan Mather, Brian O ' Neal, Billy Stout (Second row) Lovette Gilfoyle, Jeff Jewett, George Rogers, Patrick Buchanan, Wayne Martin (Absent from picture) Stephen Pearce and Dwight Hogge, vice-president (Left) Officers of the Spanish Club: Yvonne Biggs, secre- tary; Pat Berger, reporter; Cheryl Shuey, historian; Jerry Edney, treasurer; Clifton Credle, vice-president; Bill Metz, president SCOREBOARD Warwick High School Newport News Hampton Newport News Ferguson Hampton Roads Academy Hampton Roads Hampton Warwick Kecoughtan Kecoughtan Hampton Warwick Hampton Roads Academy Newport News Kecoughtan Ferguson Ferguson Results of Matches 1964-65 8 wins; 9 losses; 1 draw We They N 2 4 ' 2 2 3 21 2 21 2 4 1 3 2 5 0 2 3 2 3 4 3 5 3 3 5 1 6 2 4 1 4 31 2 l ' 2 41 2 11 2 2 3 2 3 (Below) President Paul Harris prepares to set up a match.

This was the year York gained a Keyette Club, a service club especially for girls. Since service is the main purpose, service to our school, our community, and our country— our motto is We serve. Membership for Keyettes is based on good character and leadership qualities. Girls must be high school sophomores, juniors, or seniors and maintain a C average or above. Each girl entering Keyettes must accept the responsibility of uphold- ing and supporting the club and its motto. Although the Keyette Club is similar to the Key Club in principal, there is absolutely no connection in organization. Until March 1961, there were eighteen Keyette Clubs in ex- istence. Due to their location, they were divided into three councils— Maryland, Northern Virginia, and the Tidewater Area of Virginia. It is to the Tidewater Area that we have been assigned. The girls at York should be very proud to have a club of high standards and service to which they can belong.

In addition, members have taken over classes, graded papers, put up displays, wel- comed new faculty members to York, ushered at county teachers ' meeting, and attended the State FTA Convention. Finally, the Club sponsored a Senior award and a Senior scholarship. 162 (Top above) FTA Officers: (Seafed) Barbara Eddins, presi- dent; Linda DeHart, vice-president; Nila Ormand, secre- tary; (Standing) Lorelei Bonck, reporter; Lee Fairbanks, chaplain; Donna Sa A yer, historian (Above) Cherryl Oliver, president of the Peninsula Federa- tion of FTA Clubs, and Mr. Horne smile over a momento of a past FTA rally— with Donna Sawyer 163 I Pep Club Pep Club Officers: (Right top) Judy Styne, president; Lynda AAoggio, vice-president; Susan Zalumas, secretary (Right lower) Wayne Fox, treasurer; Peggy Kearney, publicity chairman Pep Club members: (Below) (First row) Cathy Hogge, Otta Flowers, Gail Kinlan, Linda Lucy (Second row) Karen Morgan, Cindy Downs, Sherian Wilson, Suzanne Christmas, Jean Copley, Carolyn Wood (Third row) Zina Antoskow, Linda Daniels, Frances Burns, Sharon Reeder, Wanda Pierce (Fourth row) Cindy Erwin, Wayne Fox, Cheryl Loding, Debbie Moore, Linda Jordan (Fifth row) Marie Dorsey, Debbie Swain, Laurie King (Far below) (First row) Vicky Keener, Becky Hamby, Ann Jennings, Debbie Powell (Second row) Judi Collie, Lee Copley, Lin Crawford, Brenda Edwards, Susan Zalumas, Craig Patterson (Third row) Pat Ingram, Margie Hanna, Bonnie Pierce, Lynda Moggio, Gail Bruce (Fourth row) Cindy Vohringer, Becky Thrall, Joanna Stevens, Jean Hud- son, Faye Barnes (Fifth row) Peyton Powell, Mary Lee Dawson, Judy Styne, Cathy Cumbea, Peggy Kearney, Amy Emerson (Top right) Art Club members: (Front row) Woody Doug- las, Diane Britton, Mary Craw, Anita Drier, Diane White (Back row) Alan Legro, Jean Thompson, Gwen Wilbanks, Brenda Bridgeman, Carol Shields, Barbara Eddins, Carol Rigo, Carol Johnson, Irene Bailey, Charmane Cox, Pat Beribin, Elaine Crump, Dee Tartaglino, Shirley Sulik, Dusty MacLellan (Bottom right) Mr. Stevens, with Mrs. Mills, presents Irene Bailey a check for winning the two-dimensional grand prize in the Interscholastic Art Show (four schools com- peting) with an oil painting of driftwood.

The Future Nurses Club has tried to promote an interest in nursing and a feel- ing for helping throughout the club and country. The girls in the club have done volunteer work at Patrick Henry Hospital and Dunbar. They also made cakes and took them to Dunbar to be used for birth- day parties for the children. At their meet- ings they have had films and guest speak- ers to arouse an interest in the nursing profession. Field trips have been made to some of the hospitals on the peninsula to help the girls understand the duties of nurses.

Band students were busy selling candy again this year to help raise money for new uniforms. The annual spring concert, held in May, was the highlight of the year ' s perform- ances and raised more m oney for the uniform fund. The Band was graded at the District Band Festival and a number of students won chairs in the Regional and Workshop Bands. 171 Regional and Workshop Bands, Band !

These six girls were selected by several judges in try-outs held in late August. Dur- ing marching season the twirlers practice each morning and several afternoons a week original routines created by the head majorette to fit the music the band is pre- senting. As a special feature, the major- ettes, clad in uniforms designed especially for the occasion, twirl fire batons. March- ing ahead of the band is an equally-im- pressive band member, the drum major. He is in full charge whenever the band performs marching drills. By blowing his whistle or gesturing with his baton, he leads the band— and majorettes— in the in- tricate drills which the band performs.

For this reason our journey through high school includes many athletic events. Our athletes, such as Hank Immel and Greg Magee (pictured), are an unceasing source of school pride and unity. 185 VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM: (First Row, L to R) Joe Hutchko, John McDaniel, Wayne Ervi, Ace Loding, Mike Hedge, Barry Brothers, Mike Lumley, Hank Immel, Ken- ny Pargeter, Barry Winslow, Joe Olson, Terry Nyhous, Steve Emory, Danny Mc- Creery, Keith Oxendine, Larry Martin ( Sec- After defeating Norfolk Catholic in a non-league game, the Falcons fell to two peninsula foes, Newport News and Hamp- ton. In the next two games the Falcons did much better, defeating two former Group II foes, only to lose to arch rival James Blair. With the half-way mark reached, York rebounded, devastating hapless Gloucester 36-6. The next game proved to be the tear-jerker of the season, as the stubborn Farmers of Warwick bat- tled back in the last quarter to snatch a tie from the jaws of defeat. The deter- mined Mariners of Ferguson, still suffer- ing from a ruined homecoming inflicted by York two years ago, clipped the wings of the Falcons 26-7. The final game of the season provided York football fans with the greatest defensive battle seen in years. The Warriors of Kecoughtan fought off a stubborn drive to salvage a 7-6 victory over York. ond Row) David Thiel, Ronnie Saulman, James Hogge, Terry Smoot, Dick Immel, Jeff Fenton, Jimmy White, Ray Jordan, John Wood, Bill Scott, Doug Smith, Ron- nie Knight, David Marcus, Chip Young, Pat Jewel, Barry Lambert, Manager; Alan Ramsey, Manager Football Scoreboard September 1 1- York 14 Norfolk Catholic 0 September 18- York 7 Newport News 26 September 25- York 0 Hampton 14 October 2- York 25 Posquoson 14 October 9- York 27 Va.

In the open- ing game of the season, the pilots of Norview downed the Falcons 71-64. York rebounded back in the next game, win- ning a squeaker over Cox 43-42. From then on it was curtains for the Falcons as they slipped downhill, losing the next fifteen games. Yet, even though the Fal- cons had their wings clipped in the last few games they put up a valiant fight- all the way down. Losing nine games by less than ten points, the Falcons gave their opponents a hard battle down to the last basket all season long.

All Season Long - Down to the Last Basket Varsity Mike Pilgrim Wayne Emerson John Randolph Allen Ramsey Bobby Richards Glenn Mitchell Pat Knopnicki John McDaniel Bill Adams Ace Loding Each year wrestling is becoming more and more popular at York High. Not only is popularity improving but the team ' s experience as well. This season the wrestling team was composed of four seniors, eight sophomores and freshmen. Starting the season, York ' s grapplers fell to powerful Granby and Maury. Finally the Falcons made the winner ' s column by pinning their way to their first victory over Virginia Beach 27-21. From then on it was all down hill. The Falcon wrestlers posted such impressive victories as 33-13 over Norfolk Catholic, a 30-15 victory over Churchland, and a triumph over wrestling rival War- wick 27-1 8. From these victories and the experience ac- quired by the young Falcon wrestlers, York ' s wrestling team appears to be one of the most powerful teams on the peninsula in the near future.

It ' s record was 9 wins, 8 losses, 1 tie. This was the first year in tennis com- petition and although we did not win any of our 12 matches with other high schools, we had a good year. Many of the indi- vidual matches were very close though the tennis team score does not show it. We opened the door for future teams to play (and win) tennis at York High.
