Pausing in the teachers’ lounge for a moment of relaxation are Mr. Roscoe L. Coffey, Mr. Robert B. Badertscher, Mrs. June Geiger, Miss Norma Gunter, and Miss Margaret Cato. The art class is always working on something interesting. Mrs. Peggy Jo Lambert is the art teacher and helps students make use of the modern and well-equipped art room. The students learn all types of art work, including ceramics and other crafts. This gives each student a chance to discover his own abilities in certain phases of art. This year for the first time at Aiken High School, courses in distributive education and diversified occupations were offered. Mr. Roscoe L. Coffey, who earned a B.S. degree from Western Carolina College, teaches 1)0 and DE. Mr. Robert Badertscher teaches driver education and industrial arts. He has a B.S. degree from Miami University. A graduate of Mississippi Southern College with a B.S. degree and a teacher of commerce and English is Mrs. June Geiger. Miss Norma Gunter teaches commerce and has an A.B. degree from Winthrop College and a M.Ed. degree from the University of South Carolina. Miss Margaret Cato also teaches commerce and has a B.S. degree from Winthrop College. Half-time is refreshment time in the gym-natorium canteen during a basketball game. Seen here enjoying some of the food and drinks are Barbara Wright, Johnny Wingfield, Linda Howard, Harold Price, Jerry Coker, Barbara Blair, and Bobby Ratliff. Miss Cato looks on as the students begin typing assignments she has just given. Besides typing regular classroom assignments, these students are often called on to help in many activities in which typing is needed.

Look shot, feel shot, he shot; that’s Mike Collins burning up the keys. He would rather bum Mrs. Bobo. It’s four-thirty-five in the afternoon and Mrs. Bobo wants that English term paper by midnight. His sleepy look is a “left over from last night’s vigil. Good luck, Mike! Seen ready for action are the girls that operate the student bank. Seated left to right are Joyce LeGrande, Patsy Duke, Anne Treadaway, Joellen Owens, Margie Gordon, and Barbara Eckel. Standing left to right are Miss Cato, adviser of the group, Carolyn Goodwin, Mary Frances Day, Gail Swanner, Barbara Wright, Max Coleman, Betty Durham, and Mary Gomillion. Mrs. Christine Forrester, one of the AHS English teachers, has an A.B. degree from Howard College and an M.A. degree from the University of Kentucky. An English and French teacher, Mrs. Margaret Bobo has an A.B. degree from Newberry College. An A.B. graduate of Erskine College and an M.A. graduate of Emory University, Mrs. Helen Butler teaches Latin and French. Mrs. Ernestine Law, who has an A.B. degree from Winthrop College, teaches English. Having a B.S. degree from Bob Jones University, Mrs. Ann Casey is a teacher of English and Speech. Another English teacher, Mrs. Flora Meadows, has an A.B. degree from Marshall College. That’s it! Throw caution to the wind just this once and let those papers go. Enjoying a quick game before getting down to the grind of correcting papers are Mrs. Bobo. Mrs. Butler, Miss Gunter, and Miss Barlow. When the language teachers—Mrs. Christine Forrester, Mrs. Margaret Bobo, Mrs. Helen Butler, Mrs. Ernestine Law, Mrs. Ann Casey, and Mrs. Flora Meadows—get together to enjoy a “coke”, one wonders if they really speak English.

As one walks by the door of the shop located in “D” wing, he hears a constant hum of activity. The well-equipped shop is one of the main attractions to the boys at Aiken High School; it gives them excellent experience in the operation of many kinds of machinery. Tommy Boone, Lucy Sloan, Mary Ann Chandler, and Jon Griffin study a slide magnified through the bioscope. For groups studying microscopic organisms, the bioscope is a valuable scientific instrument. Mrs. Rebecca Smith proves here that she not only can teach others to prepare good coffee but also can make a good cup herself. She teaches home economics and has a B.S. degree and an M.S. degree from Woman’s College of the University of North Carolina. She is seen serving Mrs. Irene Horton, the AHS dietitian. Seated next to her is Mrs. Judith White, the Aiken area dietitian and a graduate of Winthrop College with a B.S. degree. Heading the music department and holding a B.Mus. degree from West Chester State Teachers College is Mr. William T. Slaughter. Mr. Alvin H. Hawkins has a B.S. degree and an M.S. degree from Clemson College and teaches vocational agriculture. Coffee is always enjoyed by all— especially when it’s served in the new home economics department. 13
