Alfred Sidbury John Leslie Taylor THE SENIORS PRESENT THE WAGRUB OF 1957 foreword The secret of success is constancy to purpose --Disraeli Dedication . . . Because her kindness, understanding, patience, and consideration has had no end, . . . Because she has been an excellent example of un- selfishness and inspiration to us, has tried to prepare us for college, and has been so persistent in her teach- ing, And, finally, because by her everlasting help and advice she has been largely re- sponsible for the publica- tion of this year'8 and last year's annuals and has been very active in extra-cur- ricular activities. WE, the staff of the 1957 WAGRUB, do hereby dedicate this annual to our teacher, advisor, and friend, MRS. IRENE CLARK School Hoard E. T. Batson, Jr., David V. Harrell, Dr. W. H.

And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the will which says to them: Hold on ; If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch; If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all msn count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, YOURS is the Earth and everything that's in it, And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son. --Rudyard Kipling Senior Class Officers Left to right Frances Hardison Pat Ives.........

Its members total approxi- mately sixty-seven. The Parent-Teachers Asso- ciation instigated the idea of a band and later raised money to m a k e it a reality. Students in the grades from the fourth through the twelfth may be members of the band. The band has had two concerts, has played at football games, and also appeared in the Christmas parade.

Organized only this year by the second year French students, the French Club provides an interesting and yet educational means by which the students can practice their skills in speaking French. Once the meeting has come to order, English is discarded in favor of the adopted lan- guage; and most students, while having trouble with the unaccustomed tongue, have gained val- uable experience with the language.

The Monogram Club i s composed of students who have earned a varsity letter. The purpose of the Monogram Club is to promote a greater interest in interscholastic athletics on a varsity level, to make a varsity letter a more respected award to be worn by only those who are authorized to wear them, and to promote a feeling of fellow- ship and a competitive spirit both on and off the field. Members of the club wear a red “B” on black or white sweaters. The club was organized in Burgaw High School in 1936.

The team used the short punt with the split-T and also in- cluded the tight-T formation. The 1956 team was the best that Burgaw has had in about eight years. We will be happy if next year’s team does as well. The team will lose eleven seniors. They are; Bill Davis, Gene Lanier, John Taylor, Joe Casey, Don Nanney, Larry Pridgen, Evander McLendon, Bill Malpass, Russell Lewis, Warren Young,and Billy Spender.

Qiris’ basketball Zeam The 1956 Girls’ Basketball team spirit is ex- ceedingly great. Because the girls are more experienced and there is more and better mate- rial, the team won seven games to last year's none. The following girls are seniors: Myra Newkirk and Linda Son.

The 1956 baseball team won all their games and also the 1956 county championship. This was because the team was experienced, and the spirit was very good. Morris Herring and Pete Farrior were the co-captains of the 1956 team. Morris Herring is captain-elect of the 1957 team. The following graduated in the class of 1956: Shelby Sutton, Barden Wells, John Durner. Graduating in the class of 1957 are the following: Ronnie Davis, Russell Lewis, Gene Lanier, Joe Casey, Evander McLendon, Bill Davis. The team has great possibilities for the future.

A Pitch for Recreation It's spring again! It's time for birds, bees, and little boys on baseball diamonds again. Boys need a place to play. Come to bat for your town. Help it acquire the parks, pools, and play- grounds it needs. You'll enjoy camping and picnic areas, golf courses, and tennis courts it should have. Libraries, museums, and auditoriums are needed too! Recreational facilities will be an important factor to industry considering vour,town for a possible site. Recreation is a partner in good health. It's a social force that checks juvenile delinquency. It molds good character. Don't let your town strike out in its drive for a better recreational program. Your Finer Carolina Committee needs your help in making your town a finer place to work and play.
