CHARLES W. HOLBERT Lincoln Memorial University, B.S. University of Virginia, M.Ed. Administrative Assistant Athletic Director Biology Through the ages it has been recognized that one of the truly rare talents of man is the ability to effectively flip a coin. Futhermore, it is common knowledge that this ability is a tell-tale sign that its possessor has a unique quality which elevates him above his peers. Add to this extraordinary ability the qualities of patience, fairness, wisdom, firmness, humor, and understanding, and you indeed have a most remarkable person. We at Alleghany are very fortunate in having such an individual in our midst in the personage of Mr. Charles Holbert. Althougli deprived of using his special “flipping” ability during basketball season, Mr. Holbert ably shoul- dered his responsibilities as Alleghany’s athletic director. In addition, the enormous task of directing all county buses was taken in his stride. No one can deny the efficiency of Alleghany’s bus system, especially at tournament time. In his capacity as biology teacher, Mr. Holbert amuses, and sometimes amazes his classes with anecdotes of his numerous personal experiences as a “big game hunter.” Our stay at Alleghany is a brief one, yet we will remem- ber Charles Holbert and the influence he had on us. To some he will be remembered as the short, quiet man with a burgundy blazer who always had time to be friendly and offer a smile; who was always there when an extra faculty member was needed to supervise a play practice or gym decorating; who asked to help; who helped a lonely student find a place; who did everything he could to keep a guy in school. Others will simply recall his “Hello, boys” as being a sign of approval. Whatever our memories of him may be, none of us will ever forget the loyalty he showed to Alleghany and its students. With great respect and appreciation the ALCOVA staff and students of ACHS dedicate the 1968 ALCOVA to Mr. Charles Holbert, a man who is himself dedicated. Mr. Holbert enjoys one ot his daily hall-monitorin};; tasks. 13
