' t ff, pg fs ' -Nbggqa L wif an SJ ' The high school building nas weathered perceptibly, and many of the teachers have acquired gray hairs since the class of '45, shaking in their shoes, added their names to the roll as freshmtn. Four memorable years have passed since then, years packed full of events, delightful memories, and perhaps a little learning. For the sake of those who years hence will dig out their annfls and indulge in fond reminiscence, I, the Ghost of B. H. 3. who creak through the lonely and deserted halls on cold dark nights, will sum up the outstanding events of the past four years that seemed so long and yet so short. The freshman year got off with a good start with a successful football season in which only two games were lost. This was followed by a the class of 'AZ made the newspaper provided a pleasant little vacation School which was appreciated by all the end of the season Otis Hurt of all-star team. A bout of measles of several weeks for the entire except the measles victims. The good basketball season, and at production and performance of the play Aunt gamanthy Egles gpg Roost w s enjoyed by everyone. Then came the third annual high school dance where several trembling freshman made their first appearance in high school society. The boys' Hi-Y convention was one of the high lights of the year. In the same year the appearance of smoke signals, a weekly supplement to the Tgttlpmggle, was welcomed by all. A March snowstorm provided another vacation of several days. The B.H.S. Police Force was organized and got off to a good start. The effect of the war was hardly noticed around the high school. As we swaggered in at the beginning of our sophomore year, ready to assume our duties of initiating the freshman, our joy was somewhat Miss year fr om with with snow Phippins was gone and had been of the year was to find that of who big events of this Congress with good support started the year off right a cleanwup campcign, The Dramatic Club was organized and presented great success the side-splitting comedy yhergls Qrggdmgf Then the came, and the overworked furnace registered its protest with a dampened to find that our beloved HDoc.N replaced by Mr. Short, The big surprise Price had become Mrs, Kinnear. One was the organization of the Student the entire school, The Girls' Hi-Y burst boiler. The resulting three weeks' vacation was hailed with glee, but the glee changed to woe when the time was made up on Saturdays. The football season,carried on most of the time without a coach, was rather disappointing: and U.H.S. beat us 18 to O at the homecoming game, our first defeat at their hands in seven years. The basketball season, however, made up for the poor football season, and our boys played in the tournament at Pulaski. The biight spot of the year was the fourth annual dance with has Southern Colonels playing, When we entered the halls of old B. H. S. as juniors, to our sur- prise we found the hall clock repaired and at last ticking away the minutes of the day not any too fast. The year began with a hard fighdmg but unsuccessful football team, but our boys came back with a very good basketball season which ended in our going to the tournament at Radford At the tournament one of our fellow classmcn, the team's captain, Jack Albert, was awarded an honorable mention for his outstanding sport ability. Once again we were kept up to date on the latest news, censored or otherwise, by the publication of the one sheet weekly, ing hieh School herald. Then, too, there was the invasion of the 'town by the Yanks when an nrny Special Training Unit was stationed at V. P. I. AS spring approached, many of the doors began falling from their hinges, occurrences that nay have been traceable to Grem- lins but were probably connected with the many substitute teachers A who frequented the rooms. The Beta Club by sponsoring a contest for the King and the Queen of B. H. S. began an annual event that they planned to continue in years to come. During the year the m mbers of the Dramatic Club produced two fine plays, Mi'liss and Look Out Lizzie. We closed the year by treating the seniors to an enjoyable movie and going all out for the fifth annual dence, which proved to be an out- the first time standing social event of the year. With the closing of school, for in the high school history of our class the year had an enforced vacation. We left school for the summer, passed without planning for a sume the title wonde ful vacation and the next year when we would as- of seniors. We, the seniors, not yet prepared to believe our achievement, began our last year a m nth later than usual, for the rapidly spread- ing infantile paralysis epidemic had delayed the oaeninm of school for a month. We soon became accustomed to the shortage of teachers and the new schedule. For the first time in many years, B. H. S. did not boast of a football team, since the team was dissolved because of the difficulty in securing transportation. Both the girls' and boys' basketball teams had a very successful season,hinhliQhted by our playing in the tournament in Roanoke. Our basketball captain and class mate, Jack Albert, was named the best snort of the enthm tournament. We found many channos in our school life when we began having softball playoffs between teams in our physical education classesg also, we began attending school on Saturdays to regain the time lost. Soon we elected officers and became an organized body so we could work together more effectively. One of our first undertakings was a Christmas party that was enjoyable. Then came the snow storm that caused schood to be closed o week, a vacation that was welcome. During the year several of our classmates entered thc service of their country. The boys who left were Carlyle Simmons, Elmer Dillon, and T Dick Crcggar. As it lost had for forget he backed them up with the sale of bonds and stamps. and became a reality instead of a dream, last realized what a deep affection we graduation approached its glitter and we at our school and its teachers. Knowing that we should never the memories of our happy days here and hoping that we should always attain the foundation we had gained for knowledge, we left B. H. S. with its many pleasant memories and entered the world in varied walks of life. Almeta McCoy Joan McCormack Joyce McCoy D ass eye tee, The following is a reproduction, Ward for word, of a scroll found in a hotel suite with one of the most sordidly murdered men in the history of civilization. He was found this morning lJune 19, 19653 by the chambermaid who went into the suite to change the sheets, a , duty she performed biennially. It was decided that he had died from the twelve-inch knife protruding from his back, the nine gunshot wounds the fractured skull, or the slashed throat. Inspector H,I.I.'Bidoo, who is now working on the case, said that someone mentioned in the paper must have found out about the compositiom.and sought to prevent its publication by severe homicide. Luckily the priceless manuscript was tucked away in an old Seven-Up bottle, safely hidden from the vengeful maniac. Bidoo was at loss as to the guilty criminal's iden- tityg his wise observation was, HIt could have been anybody.H A. M. June 9, 1965 Yesterday was a great day! The twentieth anniversary celebration by the incomparable class of 'A5 was held in the new skyscraper hotel, the Morris Motel, owned and managed by the city's most successful businessman, Fred Morris. As an old graduate with this class I decided to take my life in my hands and attend the boisterous celebration. By setting down this account. I again risk extermination from many quarters where it is deemed best that some of the contents of this narrative be left unsaid. If it ever get out that I was the author of this revealing document, my life wouldn't be worth the paper this thing is written on. I shall begin my story with the first incident, which happened yesterday. Rising bright and early leleven o'clockJ, I went down to the hotel where the motley crew were to assemble. About seven blocks from the establishment I became aware of a weird, unfathomable noise, which I found was the famed orchestra at the hotel, Happy Joe Wall and his Sixteen Harmonious Hooligans. There is some difference of opinion as to whether they are harmonious or not, but everyone agrees that they are certainly hooligans. Upon entering the grand ballroom of the inn, I beheld a singular character in a battered stove pipe hat, whom I at once recognized as my old friend Cadell Whitaker, recently elect- ed president of the International Order of Itineramt Migratory Workers KHobo's Unionl. The first entertainment was provided by Joe Henderson and Alfred Perdue. Joe soft shoe danced, while Perdue played his accompaniment on a musical comb. William White and James Albert were next, singing a heart plucking rendition of a familiar classic, nLeave the Dishes in. the Sink, Ma.W As I proceeded faiher into the room, my eyes rested upon the sophisticated form of Joyce Agnew, the Emily Post of today and a world-famed eutnfxitv fn t,iquette, I was than swamped by the greetings of old associates. There was Styrle Taylor, Ph. D. who, having completed years of meticulous re- search, had just received his coveted degree in of thc science of 4 advanced spherical dynamics. Over in a dark corner I noticed a figure in a horizontal position on the floorg it was NSleepyn Bruce Price, just back from Buzzard Gulch, Arizona, where he had been prospecting ., for gold. Everyone there received the treat of the day, a package of Weddle's Pestilcntial Cigarettes, manufactured by Ruth Weddle Enter- prises and guaranteed IOOZ pure pine sawdust. Faye Ryan, whose picture on the back of Qpgth magazine last week advertised the product, passed them out tasthe victims. ' Out of breath from all this hub-bub, I sank into a Morris chair but got up immediately, because Morris was occupying it.' Then I ran smack into Jack Albert, chief peanut vendor in the left field bleachers at Ebbets Field and another Brooklyn employee, Betty Mae Olinger, whoL was playing short-stop for the Dodgers. . Next, I saw that cold, calmulating loan shark, Allie Long. With her was the mirciless heart-breaker, Elizabeth McCoy, who had lost ' count long ago of the men she had driven to suicide. Howard Birchfieht principal of the new high school, came in late after disciplining ' Leslie Sites, Jr. whose old man graduated last year. Ina Mae Cromer, I heard, was working under Mr. Birchfield. She had become an old maid school teacher. I was very sorry to hear that Margaret Salmon was un- able to attend because of a previous engagement at the state prison ' for three years. Professor Harry Olinger was at the reunion, making out an exam for his college students in calculus. It was a rather difficult feat, 1 considering the discomfort of holding a chorus girl on each knee at the time. Marie Caldwell was there with her husband and old maid sister Joyce. They live happily on a small sand hill in New Mexico. WBaby Facedn Pharcs failed to attend because he was apprehended last week by Robert Handley, chief guard at the bank Pharcs tried to rob. It would have done him no good to open the vault, for the funds had been embezzled the preceding afternoon by thc president, Virginia Nowlin. Betty Oliver Kittinger finally showed up with all eleven kids in tow. They were kept in order by the cat-canine-tails brandished by their nurse, Mary Stone. Kenneth Cromer failed to show up at the occasion because of injuries sustained in a lovers' quarrel with his wife, the former lady wrestler Eunice Johnson. Each person was given a free copy of The Times, edited by Lucille Grubb and distributed by the newsbutch, Barbara Johnson. The contemporary novelist Jean McCormack gave a reading from her latest book, Eternally Sea4Weed Green, sequel to the eld favorite, Forever Amber, Noble Lee Moore's wife Josephine attended the festiviti for her deceased husband who, as a government ravenuer, attempted a raid on HBourhon Jackn Flanagan's still on Possum Creek. It was fatal. Glancing through the lobby, I saw Dr. Sam Wingard, running a patent medicine show. He had attempted suicide three times by using his own cure-all, but because of the diluted condition of his coneoetiw he had foiled. A pewter.1ovin5 cup was presented to WDeadheedN Copen- haver as an award for the title of being the laziest man in all the mountains.. His son Zeke brought him down from Pinnacle Peak on WDeadheadW slept all during the ceremony. . V1 .A L1-1 ' Charlie Hillman flatly declined the invitation to come because L' refused to'patronise a rival establishment. At the present he is sole owner and chief vermin eradicator of Charlie's Flophouse. Daphne Albert was there with her assistant, Witty Shiflet. Daphne who is a vacuum cleaner saleswoman, is just recove ing from several malicious attacks made on her by irate housewives whose rugs she ruined. has Then we all had lunch at the restaurant owned by Cleo Camper, whose motto is NOur food is absolutely harmless unless taken internalrwn Arriving fashionably late was the model Ruth Hale, followed Almeta McCoy and two of her privates in the marines, Lucy Scaggs Betty Jean Linkous. Martha Lou Stuart tried all day to find out secret reducing system, since Martha is trying to get her figure hundred, anyway. Carrie Kirk was nttired in ner uniform of city by CoL and Ruth's to two dog catcher. Ruby Dowdy arrived by plane from inner Mongolia where she had been searching for fossil remains. Janice McCann spent the evening trying to find new recruits for her jitterbug school. Joyce McCoy was unable to hold an intelligent conversation with ne, having already consumed three pints of rare old bootleg whiskey. Dolores McCoy excused herself early, saying that she had had a wonderful time and that it was time for her to no over her trap line on the V. P. I. campus to see if she had caught any new men. Mary Helen Reeves was given a brief holiday from her place at the factory where she manufactures chairs to place in coffins for rigor mortis to Nsetn in. t It was then that the building was rocked by a tremendous explosion Dr. Wingard had stood with the bottle of his medicine in his pocket just a little too close to the crackling sterno fire in the hearth. The explosion killed only twenty-nineg so with this cheerful note we broke up and like the Arabs picked up our tents and silently stole away confident of a bigger celebration next year.

The short,dumpy little woman managed to convey the impression that she was simply tearing along the white sun-washed sidewalk on the warm mid-summer morning. The brown oxfords chopped frantically at the even cement squares. The narrow dull green skirt slapped at the wrinkled tan cotton stockings, the untidy jacket seemed to threaten to burst at every seam. The scratchy brown sweater, the wooden beads, and the bright pink nails setting off the stubby pudgy hands were an offense to the eyes. The frizzly gray-brown hair beneath the gruesome hat appeared to frizzle more visibly in the bright sun's rays, but the keen black eyes in the sharp weather- beaten face didn't miss a thing on the whole main street of the shady little lake-side resort town. She continued ner head long rush from the dusky office of the local newspaper, which bore her name as editor, to the cool white information booth settrdd the hollyhocks on the wet green lawn, where she had presided for many years as self-appointed manager. The head- long rush stopped dead outside the booth as Mrs. Whosits of the Whosits of Moneybanks strolled towards her. Hrs. Uhosits' stroll halted there too, and the gossip flowed like a flood swollen river. The little newspaper editor talked so fast and so volubly that you wondered if Mrs. Whosits ever got a word in edgewiseg but when the conversation finally ended and Mrs. Whosits continued her stroll, rather stunned and weak, while the little editor whisked into the information booth, you realized that Mrs. Whosits' whole past, present and future had been extracted in the manner that would make the.best newspaper gossip. Once inside the booth the plump editor sank into the straight chair facing the door, removed her shoes, tipped the chair back against the wall, removed the plate of false teeth, and closed her eyes with a blissful sigt,As soon, however, as the sound of approaching voices drifted in through the open door, the front legs of the chair resumed their position on the floor with a guilty bang, and for a frantic moment she fumbled wildly, trying to put her teeth in her mouth and her shoes on her feet at the same time. These articles. having finally resumed their rightful places, she mustered what dignity she could and haughtily informed Hthose abominable peoplen of the location of Pine Tree Lodge. ns the rather frightened tourists left, the noon whistle blew and she tore out of the booth, slamming the door as she went. with one strained lunge she landed inside the battered gray car which had so many dents in the fenders, hood, and bumpers that garagemen shu ered at the sight of it. The gears clashed the engine groaned, the who e car shook, and then with a mighty wheeze it took off like an electrified jackrabbit, hitting the road every thirty or forty feet on one wheel. She dashed down Main Street and around the corner with a beautiful disregard for telephone poles, traffic regulations, and any thing that might be in the way. The i. startled looks on the faces of the pedestrians remain? long after even the roar of the motor had died. -Jean Mccormack On Frog HFishermenN When someone mentions frog Nfishermen,W people usually think of old men with wet feet. On the contrary, frog Hfishermenn may just as well be young men, or even boys, with wet feet. To understand frog Hfishermenu you must first understand their methods, or technique. A frog Hfisherman'sH first problem is to find a suitable frog pond. Often the owner will not give him permission to gig in it, since there is probably a bad bull in the field or else he has not forgotten about the telephone insulators which were shot to pieces on the last trip. Granting that a pond has been found, the next step is to round up an expedition, or Hsafarin, being sure that one member can bring a car, preferably an old Htrapn that will just barely run. When everyone is ready, the car and driver will probably be, about forty-five minutes late. After frantic phone calls, he finally shows up and after piling in all the luggage they are off, not to the frog pond, but to a filling station that will sell gas after six o'c1nk Finally, upon arriving at the frog pond, they are ready to begin If, after circling the pond about sixteen times on hands and knees with flashlights in their handsJthe Hfishermenu discover no frogs, it is customary to go somewhere else. Usually the second time is charmed, and frogs galore are found. lwhat if they are too small? The whole frog can be fried.D After awhile, a large one is sighted. Immediately there are screams of HBe stilln and H3immethgig.U Suddenly, with a tremendous splash, the frog jumps in and swims away. After a long period of time the frog Nfishermenn accumulate a supply of frog legs and then the question arises as to where the legs can be cooked. By this time it is horribly lat Hfishermenu must have theirf6HSt: SO they SO to they can find a clean skillet and running water legs are not cooked done enough and are not fit Nfishermenu eat them. Unfortunately this is not the end. Since Nout for the nightn, it would be foolishness to a bed, so they usually sleep in a barn and itch WAITER! About a week before I was approached by what, asked to wait tables at a readily, not knowing what the winter quarter wa certain public dining was to come. 6 o S at the time, I regarde and cold, but the someone's house where Sad to say, the to eat, but the the Nfishermenn are go home and sleep in the rest of the night Sam Hingard over at the college, d as a friend. I was room, and I accepted Mr training period consisted of two meals, supper one evening and breakfast the following morning. Mostnof this time was spent mixing orders, spilling coffee, picking silverware, which I always dropped, up off the floor, and being sworn at by the majority of the kitchen help. I was always forgetting to give the customers cream for . 1 ' their coffee, and when I remembered, I dribbled it all over the tray and table---and customer. Now I am a full-fledged member of the Royal Order of Hashslingers and manage to give fair service, putting up with.a few patrons who are too choosey and require too much special attention. At first I dreaded serving two people at the same time, but now, with out too much trouble, I can handle fifteen to twenty customers and still hams time to drink a glass of water and choke on the ice. There is always a rub when one patron is in a terrible hurry and must finish in fifteen minutes and another has all night to eat and plans to take it. Tips. They are the one little insignificant part of the whole business that is worth while. Some people will, some won't, slip the little coin, lor coins, if well satisfied? under the plate and smile when they leave. If they are alone, chances are that they will tip you, but if they have invited guests, they usually won't. There are, of course, exceptions, good and bad. Being a waiter affords plenty of opportunity to be embadassed, as you can well imagine. Spilling food in people's laps, on tables and on the floor, dropping dishes, and mixing orders are only a few of a lengtly list. If anyone in the room knows you, he is sure to get you all fussed and bothered by sidelong glances. ' A waiter's life is only on a good level when everyone has-left and he starts eating his own meal. He serves himself with the best service, swears at himself for making mistakes, and keeps himself going after more food. On the whole, there is nothing wrong with waiting tables, on the other hand, there is nothing to be gained by in You get angry with the customers, and they get angry with you: you give bad service, you forget thingsg you get tired running. These irc all reasons why you lose friends and fail to influence people. Fake it from me, I know. -Charles Hillman THE APPALACHIKNS . Much has been said in praise of the Alps, the Andes, our own Rockies, and many other rangesg but I shall always prefer the coll rolling Appalachiana with their soft tumbled ridges rising gradually lpward from the fertile valleys to any of these. ' Almost breath taking is the scene that confronts the eye on a zool, crisp October morning when the sun glistens down on the frosty earth from a cloudless turquoise sky. It is one of the greatest thrilm E have experienced to stand on the summit of one of the numerous peaks and gaze out for miles over the richly painted landscape. Equally inspiring is a visit to the slopes in spring when dogwood andj the rosebud burst forth in their royal attire, dotting the ridges with their blossoming beauty and when the gegile, misty rains fall .ntermittently through the haunts of the ruf,ri grouse, white-tailed Leer, and squirrelgmthe rains that quench the thirst of the newly sown seeds and often swell the waters of the swift, bounding brooks and rivers. I am proud-land, I am sure, not unjustly.-of my birthright Bs at mountaineer. This same land has produced many of the greatest of our country's great, among them being Andrew Jackson, Daniel Boone, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Sam Houston, Matthew Maury, Cyrus McCormick, Stonewall Jackson, Jeb Stuart, and countless others who today carry on the heritage on the bloody battlefields of World War Two. . ' ' . . -Jack Flanagan THE FORTUNE . It was cold and windy the day Mrs. Slater and little Jenny drove out to see Carmen, the fortune teller. Jenny should have taken her nap, thougM:Mrs. Slater, but she simply had to have her fortune told before she left New Brunswick. The fortune teller's cottage lay in a dense forest off the main traveled highway. It was a distance from New Brunswick, and Jenny had fallen asleep during the ride. As Mrs. Slater drew up before the cot- tage, she put on her brakes and waked Jenny. Jenny's large blue eyes opened, and a devilish smile went from one pink ear to the other, disturbed only by two dimples. nWhere are we, Mummy?W she asked. WThis is Carmen's house, honeyn, Mrs. Slates replied. NEvery- one has simply been raving about her ability to tell fortunesg so I'm going to have mine told. You come in, and I'll have yours told also.W The exterior of the cottage was very simple, but the interior proved to be quite different. A gypsy man came to the door and took them into the bright, lively quarters. The main room was fussy and frivilous. The sun shone brightly on a newly covered red couch. Perched on the couch was Carmen, enormous and jolly-looking, her black eyes flashing. With a fat hand and a clang of her many bracelets she told Mrs. Slater to have a seat beside her. Jenny was immediately attracted to a tremendous red-haired doll in a far corner of the room, and she lost no time in investigating it. Carmen asked to see Mrs. Slater's palm. Aftorxstudying it for awhile, she announced that something tragic would happen to Mrs. Slater. Mrs. Slater listened attentively, inwardly chuckling to her- self. Soon Jenny, growing weary of the doll, wandered over to the couch, and sat down beside her mother. WChild, would you like to have your fortune told? Well, let me see your palm.n l . Jenny, with a childish giggle and a toss of her blond curls, stuck out two chubby hands. Carmen regarded the hahd for a second, and then a strange expression covered her face. She brushed past Mrs. Slater and disappeared into the back room. The gypsy man soon came to show them out. Mrs. Slaterv was offended by Carmenls abruptness, and she was ready to leave. As she reached the door, the gypsy handed her a note which she tucked in Jenny's packet. A The roads were slippery on the way back to New Brunswick, and Mrs. Slater, hoping to arrive there before dark, sped faster and faster The speedometerv read forty, fifty, sixty miles an hopr.' The motion had at once lulled Jenny to sleep. Hrs. Slater pushed the accelerator closer to the floor bbari. All of a sudden another car loamed up over a hill, its bright he flights blinding Frm Slater, 'There was a screaming of'brak a cs the two nets caljldpa head on, and then-silence. Mrs. Slater pulled hersnlf out of the :ar through a shattered window and crawled over to Jenny. She dragged her out of the twisted wreckage on to the grass. Then she let out a terrifying scream. Jenny was.daMl 'A gust of wind blew Carmen's note out of Jenny's pocket. Shaking, Mrs. Slater picked it up and read. Dear Mrs. Slater, ' -. I regret to inform you that your daughter will die soon, as she has no life line in her palm. -Janice McCann HARVEST TIME As I look over the fields with corn shocks standing around and pumpkins scattered about, I think over the past spring and summer and the work that lies in those fields. I imagine the corn shocks as being guards to the pumpking lying throughout the field like tiny spots of gold Q ' The wheat with its golden grain has been harvested for some time. The cane has been worked and the sorghum boiled, but the corn is yet to be shucked. No one but the people who have helped with that kind of work can realize just what it is like. It isn't easy. The soil has to be plowedg the crops have to be planted, worked, and harvested. The best time of all is in the fall withl the harvest moon shining. At no other time does the air seem so refreshing and pure. I have often wondered what it would be like to spend one's life in the city never to know the freedom of country life. Would one feel so lively, healthy, and free as in the country? My mind has wandered over many thoughts, but I still sit here and look at the fields, some from which the crops have already been harvested and some, such as the corn fields,from which crops are not completely harvested. Soon these crops will be harvested, however, and the fields will be ready for another crop. , -Lucille Grubb El:llmgInx ' . uhiB..lalim6..Mlxmle:m1 HmSZl HQ ffffl 1,1 1,9 f I I .

They lost the first two games to their opponents. ' Joe Newman took over the.team.as coach after these first twp defeats, arid the team began to pull together. They were unscoredfsnd unde- feated the remainder of the year. The basketball team was equally successful that yearg the team went to the semi-finals of the Class B basketball tournament in Roanoke. p There were very few boys from our class who participated in sports that year. Our spohomore year Newman coached football for the first part of the season. Then.hc was called into the army to fight for Uncle Sam instead of B. H. S. Charles McNeil took over the reins of coach as well as those of captain. The team did not win so many games, but they went down fighting to win for our school. The basketball team had a fair season. Tex Tilson and Jackie Albert represented our class by being on the first team. This team won seven and lost seven games, The boys went to the tournament in Pulaski and got to the semi-finals before being whipped. The football team our junior year was handicapped greatly by lac? of experience and lack of reserves. They lost every game but went down fighting. There were only fourteen boys out for football, and by the end of the season there were only enough to put eleven men on the field. Basketball was very successful. Ben Judy coached that year, and the team lost only three games. In the tournament the team lost in a fast game with Radford 29-28 in an extra period. Three boys from our class were on the first team: Albert, Copenhaver, and Tilson. Nah We were veryqdisnpbointed not to have a football team our last year in school, but it was deemed best in view of thc lack of playing materials and late opening of school that we not try to organize a team. The basketball team was ably coached by George Hawkins whose combination left the best record for a number of years behind them. The senior class was well represented in this group, with Albert, Copenhaver, Cregger, Moore, Hillman, and Cromer. Captain Albert lcd his team exceptionally well throughout the season and gained honor for himself in the tournament in Roanoke by being named the best sport in the tournament. A sports review of our four years in high school would not be complete without an account of the baseball teams. We have had a team every year, alsmaugh we have never played organized ball under sponsorship of the school. We have been well represented on all the ball teams since our sophomore year.
