Needless to say, this is no easy task, for everyone can not be satisfied. Thus the education board must first consider the children and the facilities available for maxi- mum use, in trying to work out an acceptable plan.” Overman then turned the meeting over to Willcox, who fielded questions answered by himself. Overman and Carlos Burt of Enfield, also a board member. The ensuing nearly two-hour Before any further discus- sion came on that, the dom- inant question popped up again; ‘‘Why was our school done away w-ith?” Willcox answered this with a question: ‘‘How many courses, other than the bare basics, can our school offer now? W ' e have 188 in high school this year here with 12 teachers; we are talking about a high school with 900 students and teachers to serve them with a variety of comprehensive courses.” This brought on rapid-fire opinions on the preparation or lack of preparation students vay. It also was clearly stated tti ssue was not integration, bi simply “we want to keep ot high school.” .The county ' s desegregatic proposal, which has been siil mitted to the U. S.

Richardson said “you talk about minorities ... we (the Indians) are the real minority — around 102 students total — and we do not go along with Washington cramming things down our throats any more than you do. But we let ourselves be heard and Wash- ington is well-aware of us. You have to stick your feet into the ground and not let them push you away; let them know what you want . . . don’t give up.” Richardson said ihey came down here and told us we should close our (the Haliwa) school and now they would I favor closing the latest sch I (Aurelian Springs) our child I attend.

Villcjix, carrying the ball 11 : is !SSi( In February, 1969, action taken by the Halifax County Board of Education brought out the feelings of ASHS patrons as nothing else has. In making consolidation plans for the upcoming year, the board planned to do away with the high school at Aurelian Springs. As a result, for the first time in the history of the school, teachers, parents, and students of all the three races represented in high school worked together to take steps to prevent such action by the board or any other faction. Even though the effect of their efforts was limited, the patrons of Aurelian Springs School can be proud of the interest they showed in their school. WEATHER Mostly sunny and continu cold this afternoon. Fair a a little colder tonight. Lo sen m- ire jm Yes, for eighty-eight years, Aurelian Springs School has meant many different things for just as many different people. Because of the memories of its former students, Aurelian Springs High School lives on. The last graduation exercises are over and the gymnasium has rocked for the last time at the sounds of a tight basketball game, but the spirit that is Aurelian Springs High School will never die. 14 :i:% Many things influence the growth of a young person to maturity. One of the most important of these is the education he receives. As we leave Aurelian Springs High School for the last time, we tend to recall the years we have spent here. Students who have attended this school at some time during its long history hold memories of many of these years. We recall the sometimes long classes, the often noisy lunchlines, and the riotous ballgames. But more than this, we remember the untiring e fforts of our teachers and others about us who have been dedicated to our education. Therefore, we wish to dedicate this, the final edition of the Purple and Old Gold to Aurelian Springs High School. This dedication is not made to a building which we are now leaving, but in a greater sense the dedication is to all those who have made our school what it was to us. Hence, we wish to express our gratitude to all of the parents, teachers, alumni, and other friends of the school who have given of their time and efforts to make both our school and us what we have become. Sir SSr 1 ffiiri III init [ i [Sr 1 MJHMjinBij INMEMORIAM Of the many friends of this school, one stands out in the minds of students throughout the history of Aurelian Springs High School. Mr. E. W. Liles was a strong progressive influence in this community for many, many years. He was interested not only in the school and its students but also in the Aurelian Springs community. This interest was demonstrated by his efforts during the early years of the school to keep it in the community and by his never failing support of the school’s activities during his lifetime. Mr. Liles died in December, 1968, a loss felt not only by his family and close friends, but by all who knew him or knew of him. Our school leaves this area now, but we will not forget the concern Mr. Liles and others had for us. As we move to a new school, we may only hope that those who lead in providing education for our people will be as dedicated to their task as their predecessors were. 17 We come to the end of an era— the era of Aurelian Springs High School. It is appropriate to look back to the beginning of the school, its early supporters, and the sacrifices made for it through the years. It is appropriate to remember the record of the school, its triumphs, and the leaders it produced. May we always look with pride to its accomplishments and the place it filled in the com- munity. However, we should not stop here, for to do so would be a tragic mistake. Rather, let us look to the future and the effect each of us will have on the final evaluation of the school. Will our action and progress add to the school’s reputation or detract from it? Will we serve in a way that will cause future generations to include us among the leaders the school produced? The answer to these questions rests entirely upon each of us and the part you play will be determined by you. 18 19 Lu Ellen Carlton Walter W. Cherry Louise P. Cox Delores J. Stainback Maudgenia S.

The offi- cers are elected in the spring prior to the year in which they will serve, and the representatives are elected in their homerooms in the fall. This year has been an active one for the council. Through its projects and cooperation with other groups, students, and teachers, the council has tried to improve student-teacher relationships by giving the teachers a cake on special days. Another activity sponsored by the council which the students and teachers especially enjoyed was Tacky Day. In addi- tion, a Harvest Dance was held at Thanksgiving and a Harvest Queen and her court were chosen. These are only some of the worthwhile activities that the 1969-70 council has carried out. 22 OFFICERS: Mrs. Hill, Advisor; Glenda Murphey, President; Cathy Crawley, Vice-president; Vicki Hawkins, Secretary; Margaret Keeter, Treasurer. These two pictures depict two of the Student Council’s activities. Charlotte and Connie are per- forming the Council duty of raising the flag in the morning and Vicki, who was chosen Harvest Queen, rides in the Christmas parade in Roanoke Rapids. 23 Marshals Marshals are chosen at Aurelian Springs in the spring from the junior class. The six students with the top overall averages in the class are chosen to act as marshals at several events during the spring and ensuing fall and winter, including music recitals, commencement exercises and several choral pro- grams. It is indeed an honor to be selected as a Marshal and these students should be quite proud of their accomplishment.

Beta Club Beta Club members are chosen from the junior and senior classes. Each new member must be approved by the principal, sponsor, and the club members. Basic requirements are a minimum of a 90 average on all subjects and good moral character. During the year the club usually participates in several service projects for the people of the commu- nity. Many members also attend district and state conventions during the spring. 25 Future Farmers of America OFFICERS: Butch Aycock, President; Joe Neal Robert- son, Vice-president; Gary Sparks, Secretary; Jackson Boseman, Treasurer; Glenn Keeter, Reporter. 26 Future Homemakers of America OFFICERS: Betty Jo Shearin, President; Vicki Haw- kins, Vice-president; Diane Warren, Secretary; Debbie Grubb, Treasurer; Brenda Ann Lynch, Reporter; Cindy Hux, Historian; Sheila Kerr, Parliamentarian; Ellen Har- low, Recreation. 27 Harvest Court Vicki Chestnutt, Queen Connie Liles Gail Warren For the first time in recent years, the Student Council sponsored a Harvest Dance. A Harvest Queen and her court were chosen. The court consisted of five seniors and a girl from each of the freshman, sophomore, and junior classes. Connie Trothen 29 The harvest ball was held at Thanksgiving for the purpose of crowning the new queen and recogni- zing her court. The queen, Vicki Chestnutt, was chosen from the se- nior nominees by a vote of all the high school students. Arline Crawley, last year’s homecoming queen, crowned Vicki during the dance. 30 Mrs. Oxenham and Mr. Lane, Directors High School Chorus 31 Monogram Club Pep Club 32 Basketball Boys COACHES: Mr. Bruce Harris Mr. John Jenks .. : ’,1 cheerleaders SCOREMASTER 12 3 4 i i ■% •■ ■% HOME VISITORS I mmtuwvffm This just was not the year for girls’ basketball at ASHS. The girls did, however, make a fine effort to pick up several victories over some of the better girls’ teams in the area. As luck would have it, the girls met top-seeded Norlina in the first round of the tournament and the big, tough Norlina girls were just too much for the Horn- ettes. Still, the girls made a fine effort and played some very good ball at times throughout the sea- son. One of the high spots of the year for the girls was Betty Jo Shearin’s selection to the all- conference team. Certainly all the girls should be complimented on their fine effort and for the way in which they represented their school. The boys’ basketball team showed a new, im- proved style of play this season. Starting out strong in conference play with five straight wins, the boys held on to finish fourth in the conference. They also took a fine win over Norlina in the first round of the Roanoke Conference tournament, before losing a hard-fought battle to top-seeded Weldon. Due to their regular season finish, the boys also received a berth in the district tournament in Louis- burg. They lost their first game, however, to War- renton. Despite their late-season losses, the boys showed a great improvement in their play and deserve a lot of credit for a good basketball season. 37 Lunchroom Staff 39 Seniors OFFICERS: Bill Shearin, President; Charlotte Warren, Vice-president; Gail Warren, Secretary; Connie Trothen, Treasurer; Mr. Wade and Miss Williams, Advisors. 40 41 KENNETH DUANE AYCOCK DAVID AUGUSTUS BELL WILLIAM JACKSON BOSEMAN VICKI LYNETTE CHESTNUTT KATHALEAN COPELAND HUGH CABOT CRAWLEY MARK A.
