As the modern emphasis on academic qualities increases, Wilkes Central consistently equals and surpasses the demand. It is to this nature We credit our high academic status which is extolled by us in these pages. ontente Academic .... . . . 6 Activmes ..... ..... 4 7 Athletics... ....69 Features ....... ..... 8 1 Advertisements .... ..... 90 X MEETS INDIVIDUAL NEEDS Our four-way program challenges the student to work toward self-im- pI'0V6I'I'I6l1f. ENGLISH. English is the center of the high school curriculum. For the student who will complete his formal education with his diploma, for the student who will enter the business world with marketable skills, and for the student who will continue his studies in higher institutions of learning, there is a special place in the program of our English Department. PREPARES FOR LIFE SITUATIONS We strive for proficiency in getting knowledge and in developing practical skills. The accomplishments of Wilkes Centra-I students in the various colleges throughout our state and in other states have established the excellence of our Department of English. Stu- dents have been permitted to omit college courses in English because of outstanding records in achievements tests. Wilkes Central has been represented in the first sections of freshman English in all the leading colleges in our state. Page Six GIVES ENRICHMENT Through study of the masters, we grow in appreciation and establish ideals. PROMOTES SCHOLARSHIP In state and national competition, we stand with the best. LANGUAGES . Our purpose is to lay a solid foundation in hearing, speaking, reading, and writing the French language and to understand and appreciate the people of France and their contribution to world culture and to the develop- ment of American life. lt is hoped that the study of French so enriches the life of the student that one may well say that He who has another language has an- other life. Graduates ot Wilkes Central who have continued The reading of French novels by individual pupils gives a deeper insight in- to the life of the French people. Charts and other special protects enrich the study of languages the study of French in college have made outstanding records. To present the Latin language as a basis of English word studies and to emphasize correct grammatical usage in English: to give students a glimpse of early Roman history with comparisons between the ancient and the modern lifep and to develop the ability to read and understand Latin-these are the objectives of the Latin course. Using recordings of the language helped students learn to pronounce more distinctly. SOCIAL STUDIES . Social studies give the students a background for understanding important past and current events, they also promote comprehensive reading. Social studies parallel English and languages in that while a student studies English and French literature he is studying world history, and while he studies American literature, U. S. history. Asian history, added to Wilkes Central's curri- culum this year, gives the student a background for un- derstanding Chinese, Japanese, and Indian social and political problems arising almost daily. U. S. History projects aid the student in visualing past American life. How do you make out an income tax form? Students taking Sociology and Economics learn the value of the Ameri- can dollar when they prepare tax returns. We have to understand social and political problems throughout the world, says Coach Branch as he refers to the map behind him.

During this era of increased interest in mathematics, Wilkes Central's Math Department is continually im- proving. The opportunities in this field of study range from a basic course in general mathematics to an ad- vanced study of solid geometry and trigonometry.

By applying this solid geometric principle, Mr. After studying general math for a year, these students are ready Brookshire is giving his college-bound seniors a sample to apply their knowledge of banking. of the higher mathematics. Page Nine The science department of Wilkes Central is one of the most active in the school. Comprised of general science, biology, chemistry, physics, and senior science, it offers almost any type a student could desire. Through the various science courses students ac- quire knowledge which will give them an adequate back- ground for further study or for the every-day needs of life in the present century when science becomes more and more important to the average man. Under the guidance of five excellent teachers, our science department is growing constantly in size and importance. l l Members of the chemistry class take delight in the many helpful experiments in which they participate.

No, iust another experiment performed by teacher and pupil. u COMMERCIAL Learning to operate the various business machines, duplicating for the school, learning and practicing clerical office procedures such as filing, and banking transactions- these make up the program of the Office Management class. Business students are trained in the operation of various business machines, duties of clerical workers, and personality and correct dress for business. Wilkes Central has many typists: during a day's time 80 typewriters 35 electric IBM and Royals and 45 manual Royals-are used by ap- proximately 462 students who make up two classes of Typing ll, seven classes of Typing l, and three classes of shorthand transcription. Students type all kinds of material: authentic office correspondence, manuscripts, bills of lading, tele- grams, production work, letters, cards, and envelopes, and, as many in the classes would tell you, those horrible timed writings and tabulat- ed reports. .Mg--G -f 2.

Putting into practice what she has learned at Studyinghouse plans and construction prepares these girls for their position school this student is conducting a home ex- as future help-mates. periment in meal preparation. Homemaking is an art requiring specialized train- ing. Classroom periods teach students the basic essentials of homemakingp but in order to gain confidence and skill each girl carries out home proiects. Wilkes Central's Home Economics Department has as its principal goal to better prepare girls for this all important career of homemaking. The department also seeks to introduce girls to vocations in dietetics, interior decorating, and home economy. Good grooming and personality devel- opment, another phase of Home Economics, is not only preparation for the future, but applicable immediately. Home Ec. is certainly a worthwhile endeavor for any high school girl.

The grounds of Wilkes Central are constantly im- proved and cared for by our Agriculture Department. VOCA TIONAL AGRICULTURE . . Home proiects are encouraged and supervised by the teachers of this department. All phases of the vocational program have shown much progress this year in both quantity and quality. Highlights are: Farming programs in general show improve- ment. Four purebred dairy calves were added to our chain and arrangements for eighteen additional purebred gilts have been completed. The highest corn yield U41 bushels per acrej since the depart- ment was organized was obtained by use of im- proved practices. Three of our members are candi- dates for the State Farmer degree. Of four calves shown, two received blue ribbons, and two received red ribbons. lmprovements were made to the school grounds by reseeding lawns, building steps and beginning a new storage building. Use of the Chapter owned tractor increased and a new pickup was purchased. Approximately 250 attended our annual pic- nic, and two honorary chapter degrees were con- fered at this meeting. Additional books were ordered to supplement our chapter library, which already contains more than 750 books. We placed first in two of the seven Federation contests. The above activities gave us a standing of second place in District Six and ranked us in the top 'IO per cent of all chapters in the state. Preparation for a Father-Son Picnic proves entertaining to these agriculture students. Page Thirteen MR. J. FLOYD WOODWARD Superintendent of North DR. H. E. THOMPSON Principal of Wilkes Central Wilkesboro Public Schools Wilkes Central, with its ever-growing needs, is fortunate to have an alert and keenly interested Board of Education and Superintendent. To meet the needs of a growing school, this year they have increased the faculty to provide for a better academic program. The gymtorium, which they planned last year, will be com- pleted in the near future. Wilkes Central is equally fortunate to have a Prin- cipal who is ever striving to make Wilkes Central the best high school possible. His aim is to provide an en- riched and well-rounded curriculum to meet the needs of every pupil.

Juniors at last! was the ioyful ex- pression shouted by the 182 members of the class of '60 at the beginning of this school year. With a new air of independence and superiority, the Juniors could now become members of the Senior Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y, play more recognized roles in Wilkes Cen- tral's sports activities, and become eli- gible for membership in the Green Key Club. The Juniors also now had many more responsibilities, such as the planning and production of what turned out to be a most unique and un- forgetable Junior-Senior under Paris skies, and the making of better grades, now being taken more seriously as col- lege days drew nearer. One of the highlights of this Junior year was receiving long-awaited class rings, which gave the Juniors a proud feeling of singularity and accomplish- ment. As this school year drew to a close, the Juniors began to turn their heads in a different direction -toward being proud 1960 Seniors at Wilkes Central. Proudly admiring their long-awaited class rings are these excited iunior class of ficers, left to right: James Cook, president, Jim Eller, vice-president, and Elaine Moore, secretary-treasurer.

With one year's experience to our credit, we felt that by now we knew the routine. Ot course we had our problems with Latin and hic, haec, hoc. ln biology it was, Mr. Evans, do l have to dissect this eartl1worm? To prove that things haven't changed though, we touncl that Brutus is still an honorable man. But we really ran into trouble with plane geometry and the question then was, How can I ever prove these two tri- angles congruent? Mixed with our work we had the tun ot planning and carrying out our Sophomore Hop. When we realized that next year we would be Juniors, get our class rings, and be hosts at the Junior-Senior, all the work seemed worth-while. ,fn ,g A it ' Q Q ,,.. i i t i -. cst lg :L A '-Li: l sftsl s it J' s s sf 5 A .. ... is kk 5 ,L-, . i t n s' al l A J B' A ' A s ' sscs T .s - Q. - ' ,J if A . il 5 OPH OM OR ES B- -B Brenda Kay Blankenship B Q . - B ' Bi r Raddy Blankenship Q ,, Q Q T , mmnn P Q QQQ Ann Bouchelle B .S,. ik.

High school . . . everything was new and wonderful to the freshmen. Unlike many other freshmen classes, the '58-59 freshmen soon were iust an- other cog, fitting smoothly into the wheel of activity constantly turning at Wilkes Central. With the enthusiasm and energy necessary to satisfy the desire to ex- plore and find out, they applied them- selves to the task of securing an edu- cation. By displaying this same stamina in participation in and support of school activities, Wilkes Central gradu- ally became their school. They no longer said the Wilkes Central team. Instead, they said our team. The highlight of their year was the freshman dance. Candlelight, soft music, Rapsody in Blue -all remain- ed a part of cherished memories of their first year as full-pledged high school students. if A i 33?

Those after-the-game-football dances were great. Didn't you iust stuff yourself with refreshments at the Y Christmas party? The New Year's pro- gram made a good Tri-Hi-Y project. Those sock hops and the Easter Parade of Hats kept all Tri-Hi-Y members busy preparing for them. Interesting and in- formative programs were presented at each meeting, and two Tri-Hi-Y repre- sentatives attended a conference in Lex- ington. Tri-Hi-Y members found opportunities in all of these many activities To create, maintain, and extend throughout the home, school, and community, high standards of Christian character.

Hi-Y members also had a program entitled Christian Ideas as Related to Business, in which they discussed several businesses and professions. Representatives were sent to the Hi-Y convention to learn new ideas in developing Hi-Y Clubs.

VARSITY FUOTBALL With only five returning lettermen this year, our Eagles with Coaches Hoffman and Branch at the helm, climaxed an unusually thrilling season for its many loyal fans with an 8-2 Conference record, a rank of sixth in the state, a total of 238 points-exactly double oppon- ents ll9. Individual players also received many honors: Kent Rhodes, Odell White, and Gene Winters, All-Con- ference, Jerry Moore, All-State, All-American, and Shrine Bowl and East-West Representative. MARION Q25-205 ln the maior game of the season, our Eagles came out on top to gain revenge for the Coaches Branch and Hoffman spend many long defeat Marion gave us last year. Behind 13-0 after five minutes of gridiron action, the Eagles rallied for 4 TD's by White, Moore and Rhodes, before Marion scored again, boosting the spirit of both fans and team for the entire season. TAYLORSVILLE Q32-Ol Fans followed our jubilant Eagles as they rolled over their host in a second big victory. Frazier recovered a Taylorsville fumble after a 65 yard dash by Moore, setting the trigger for a TD by Moore and 2 by both White and Quilici. These football players find that working together is necessary in hours perfecting plays for our Eagles. sports. Surviving moments like these, our Eagles won the support of many enthusiastic fans during the T959 season. NEWTON-CONOVER Q33-61 White opened action in the first home game of the season by dashing 80 yards for the first TD. Again on TD's by Moore and Quilici, placements by Winters, and solid defense, our Eagles racked up their third straight victory, and a post of first in the conference. MORGANTON Q19-67 Retaining top place in the conference and captivating a homecoming audience of over 2500, our Eagles again displayed brick defense and constant rushing power. The key play was a sub- stantial gain by Bentley to Morganton's 20, setting up a TD run by Moore. ELKIN Q28-l2l Retaining third rank in State AA Class, the Eagles blocked a lonesome end threat to win with 2 interceptions by Moore and 26 and 10 yard passes from him to White, who also carried for the total of 3 TD's. MT. AIRY U8-61 The fifth win by our Eagles show- ed marked improvement of the whole team, splendid of- fensive action by QB Moore, HB's White and Gambill, and FB Quilici, and stalwart line play. All combined gave us a definite victory over even such a strong op- ponent. VALDESE Q12-7j Our high flying Eagles sought and won a seventh straight victory which featured vici- ous line play. Being ieopardized by a 7-0 score in the third quarter set our Eagles on fire. Frazier blocked a Valdese punt on our eighth, two plays later White broke through to score. A blocked kick left the score 7-6, but once again our offense score: Gambill streaked over from the nine with the winning TD, leaving the capacity crowd wild. HICKORY Q20-351 White dashed 68 yards on the first play from scrimmage, giving our Eagles a 7-0 lead. Several costly breaks, penalties, and interceptions soon gave our rivals the upper hand, and though our Eagles fought valliantly both offensively and defensively, we were handed our first defeat of the season.

LENOIR Q26-23l A dazzling display of offensive power by both teams ended with Wilkes Central on the short end. The running of White, Gambill and Moore was outstanding in the gain of over 300 yards. The winning Wilkes drive was foiled as Faw replacing Reeves went to fullback rather than tackle on the 4 yard line. All-conference Eagles were Gene Winters, Odell White, and Kent Rhodes.

All the girls playing basketball this year exerted an extra bit of effort for our new coach, Dan Stallings. Having a man for a coach was a new experience for many of the girls, and all wanted to make a good im- pression. Our hearts were palpitating as we entered each game. The season was a great one as we won T5 and lost 6 games. The season progressed to a thrilling climax as we entered the semi-final tournament in Hickory. Playing Tri-Hi High School, we had a very close game but lost 53-45, and, even though we had broken no records for Wilkes Central, we were honored even to have the opportunity to play in the tournament.

Although five members of last year's team grad- uated, our new coach, Rex Kilby, began the year with much spirit. Led by the captain, Kent Rhodes, the boys played hard and improved steadily throughout the sea- son, losing often only by a very few points. The highlight of the season was the Hudson game which left the fans breathless until Central won in the last half. As the season progressed the team learned the im- portance of co-operation and teamwork.

CHEERLEADERS To a WC cheerleader, Victory is the important goal. She cheers for her team to do its best, and most often at Wilkes Central she is rewarded with her team's best being no less than Victory. Cheering in actual games, we found only the surface of a cheerleader's work. Behind this were many hours of grueling practice- Come on girls, iump together, pleaded our chief, Rebecca Lowe. Diane and Rebecca's posters, Sandra's pep talks on the intercom, the big football in the hall before the Hudson game, the big Eagle for the Valdese game-all gave recognition and support to our Eagles. We were always proud of our team and school, whether or not the victory became ours. The realization that wearing a big WC letter meant being a representative of Wilkes Central's Eagles, students, and spirit, made us ever-more conscious of the respon- sibility we held: our sportsmanship, conduct, and attitude must be irreproachable. Ask any Wilkes Central cheerleader where she'cl rather cheer, and why she cheers. The answer-At Wilkes Central for Victory! , 5 ,ggi .. 'A iv sisilji The T959 baseball team made several outstanding records for itself this year. Roy Brooks, our southpaw pitcher, hurled many unprecedented records: three no- hitters against Morganton and Newton-Conover, in- cluding a perfect game against Valdese, bringing Wilkes Central into the baseball limelight. Odell White and Jerry Moore led in batting with season's averages around .360. The entire season's record was nine wins and four losses, giving us third place in the conference. This grand record made by our team boosted school spirit and caused many students to become ardent baseball fans.

The honor of Douglas Cox's winning second place in the broad iump at the WNCHSAA Meet at Davidson College concluded our T959 track season. The mile re- lay team fAugustine Quilici, Leonard Brooks, Rick Jones, and Wally VanMeterj, the shot-put Uim Spainhourj, the 100-yard dash lRick Jonesj, along with the broad jump QDouglas Coxj, qualified our boys at the conference meet at Hickory to participate in the WNCHSAA Meet. All these placed high in their separate divisions and were a credit to our team. As many of the '59 team are underclassmen, Coach Branch is optimistic about the record they can make next year. GOLF Our newly formed golf team did much this year to set a par for future Wilkes Central golfers. The team participated in seven mat- ches and took eighth place in the WNCHSAA Golf Championship. Three of the boys-Captain Billy Benson, Tommy Anderson, and Billy Hayes-were con- tenders for the Carolina's Junior Champion- ship in Salisbury. Dr. Thompson, coach, predicts that since most of his golfers are underclassmen, with the influx of freshmen in the next two years, the team will definitely be a strong conten- der for the Conference Championship!

Page Eighty WRESTLING A second new sport came to Wilkes Central boys this year as Coach Branch introduced wrestling. Led by co-captains Russell Gambill and Jerry Morrison, the season record was two wins and four losses, a remarkable re- cord for a team with no previous experience. ln our first WNCHSAA tournament, Wilkes Central placed fifth among many other schools with seasoned teams. Russell Gambill was elected by the coaches of the participating teams as the most outstanding wrestler in the tournament. We salute this team and its exceptional record! :gifs x g A ffl sg., sm 1 fy?

Leading the processional, as they led us through our years at Central, are Dr. Thompson and Mr. Woodward. Page Eighty-Eight GRADUATION . May 26, 1959-Graduation. The seniors of '59 held mixed emotions as the day drew nearer. Some were happy, others sad. For some, it would mean a summer of leisure followed by college in the fall. Others had already secured employment. Still others would find themselves in the armed forces serving our country. One of the most often expressed regrets of the class was that it would be our last gathering as mem- bers of the student body of Wilkes Central High School. As the solemn-faced Seniors entered to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance, they suddenly realized that their days at Central had terminated. S0 ends fbg Stow of ,59 7 PROGRAM .

Forestry's importance also results from the fact that it has become an essential crop to the State's economv and because it provides the raw materials for several booming industries. In these many roles forestry affects the standard of living or per capita income of nearly every Tar Heel. As forestry prospers so will North Carolina prosper because: 1' Forestry is North Carolina's third ranking industry with an annual product valued at S7S0,000,000g f Forestry provides jobs for 78,000 Tar Heels and is second only to textiles as a source of employmentg Forestry adds S243,000,000 to North Carolina's economic income in the form of wagesg Forestry's annual 535,000,000 loss to fires represents needless loss in Tar Heel wages, property and natural resources. i 'A' IMThmmWMWaw5mlMQwMm0mmmwm AMERICAN FURNITURE COMPANY North Wilkesboro, N.
