Foreword Our lives like the fashions and styles of today, are in a state of constant change. Looking back over our four years in high school, we can recall many momentous changes in our lives each year: Our teachers, our interests, our activities, our attitudes-all have changed. We have also learned lasting values that do not change. In this volume we have attempted to preserve these memories that you may never forget. Carver High School is a place that has enabled us to pre- pare ourselves to meet the challenges of tomorrow. 3 CHS is a place • • 4 to meditate , . . 5 to experiment 0 to meet new friends to learn 0 0 to appreciate culture 8 to socialize 9 to learn good sportsmanship 10 to participate . . . 11 0 § to have fun 12 . to serve others 13 DEDICATION The Yellow Jacket is proudly dedicated to a person for whom everyone has the greatest admiration and respect. As a coach and teacher of the students at Carver Junior-Senior High School, he has done much to instill in them those qualities which will best suit them for their role as useful citizens. As head coach of both football and basketball, he has done a tremendous job in inspiring the young men to perform in a superior manner. For these things, we proudly and gratefully dedicate the 1967 Yellow-Jacket to our friend and coach, Mr. Joseph D. Williams. Coach Williams, a person of high ideals and spark- ling personality with leadership abilities, has earned the title of a loyal friend and a capable teacher and coach. Truly the Yellow Jacket Athletic program offers excellence in competitive events and in the superior school spirit. OUR PRINCIPAL Solving the countless problems that arise in keeping a high school running properly is a complicated task, but Principal Frank Thomas handles it smoothly and efficiently. Mr. Thomas’ experience in education has been both as a teacher and as administrator. Before becoming principal of the high school he was principal of Carver Elementary School. He earned a B.S. Degree from Winston-Salem State College and an M.A. Degree from New York University. Indeed, any student can always be assured that Mr. Thomas will find a moment to discuss any touching area. 15 Mrs. Doretha H. Black handles her trying job as Assistant Principal with reason and fairness. She has the thankless task of insuring that students respect the rules of the school and the rights of their fellow students. Mrs. Black plays an important role in striving to maintain and improve the academic and extra-curricular program of the high school. Mrs. Black was graduated from Bennett College and received a masters degree from the University of North Carolina. I Vital to the function of our school is of our secretaries.

We’ve had good days We’ve had good hours We’ve had our up’s We’ve had our downs But it’s time for us To leave you now Dear Carver High. Class It seems that only yesterday, We began our studies here. Our love for you, Dear Carver, Has grown in us each year. With graduation now so near, Soon we’ll all depart. 0 Carver, to us you’re so dear Your memories will remain Forever in our hearts. This will not be the end of life, It’s life’s real start now that we Class Motto Class Motto: Ah, but a man’s reach should Colors exceed his grasp, Or what’s a heaven for? Robert Browning We’ll miss the joys we shared While we were here We’ll miss the sound of laughter in our ears. We’ll have no fun like we had when we were here. Dear Carver High. Chorus: We’ve loved you so very dear We hate to disappear Out in the world We’re on our own We’ll be all alone to think of you. Poem have reached the crossroads, And we must now depart. 0 Carver, our future is ever near Because of our learning we’ll never fear. We’d love to remain, Because you’re so swell. Dear Carver, though it hurts us, We must say farewell. Mary Hauser Jacqueline Grace Class Colors Class Flower : Pink and White Class Flower: Pink Rose Last Will and Testament We, the graduating class of nineteen hundred and sixty-seven of Carver High School in the city of Winston- Salem, North Carolina, realizing that the close of our school days is near at hand, think it is wise to leave some - thing to those who in future years will undertake to fill our places. Therefore, being of sound mind, we pause here for the purpose of stating our last will and testament. Since we have tried to be honest, as well as just and generous in our distribution of the many gifts which we now possess, we have finally reached our decisions. Therefore, we hereby give these possessions to certain designated persons whose names shall be recorded herein. We sincerely hope that those who receive them will accept them as sacred tokens from those who have gone before. To Mr. Frank K. Thomas, our beloved principal, we leave our sincere appreciation for his guidance and leadership. To our senior advisors, we leave a few gray hairs and our sincere apprecia- tion for their guidance and leadership. To the Junior Class, we leave the front seats in the auditorium and our best wishes that they will all be successful seniors. To the Sophomore Class, we leave a little wisdom, to prevent them from making the mistakes that we did on our way to seniority. To individuals we bequeath the following: 1. Hoyt Miller Allen Jr. wills his class ring to his brother, Carl and to Mr. Briggs his seat in his homeroom. 2. Jeriy Wayne Anderson wills his basketball suit to John Jowers, his ability to play football to Reginald Jones, to Vyvyne Hunt about twenty-five pounds and all his love to “Amour”. 3. Jo-Ann Anthony wills her class ring to Charles Wilson and her ability to keep her mouth shut to Rachel Anthony. 4.

It is now 1977 as I walk along the avenues of success the first persons that I meet are Frank Gwyn and Lorenzo Pearson who are head coaches for the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears respectively. They told me that Eugene Gray was with the Harlem Globetrotters and that Franklin Wilson has topped Babe Ruth’s home run record. He plays for the New York Mets. As I stroll along the avenue I see a sign, Hoyt Allen Sons’ Clinic. On his staff are Jo Ann Anthony and Carolyn Elder. He is now in the pro- cess of using a new type X-ray machine developed by Patricia Parker and Russell Covington. Carolyn Howard is now head of staff of doc tors at Hope Memorial Hospital.

Constance Curry is getting ready to board the Pan American Airlines for a flight to Germany. She is to attend the most fabulous University in the country to work on her Doctorate Degree. While she is there she hopes to find her long lost lover, John Williamson. Can you imagine Ronald Haith now a scientist arguing with Dr. Salk on one of his theories. He has all hopes of winning the issue. Inez Furches and Susan Jones are stewardesses for Piedmont Airline. Their run is from Winston- Salem, North Carolina to Atlanta, Georgia. Anita Golden is now matron of the girls dormitory at Winston-Salem State College. Wade Tyner is dietician, and Robert Thompson is dean of men there.

As the curtain is about to fall we can see our very prosperous social workers, Joan Stover, Gwendolyn Hauser, Richard Westley and Barbara Bailey. I am convinced, after seeing the tremendous amount of progress which our classmates have made that our four years at Carver played a very important part in helping us to fulfill our desires. Arwilda Cannady Linda Thompson Carolyn Summers 93 Class History We, the senior class of 1967, aware that our remaining days at Carver High are numbered, pause amidst our various activ- ities to take a glance into the midst of our past. We have spent many days in the halls and classrooms of Carver . . . some good, some bad, some happy, others sad. Yet we have faced and solved our problems which combine to make the “History of the Class of ’67.” If we could turn back the hands of time of 1963, we could see an excited and eager freshman class. “Greenhorns! Green- horns! This was the cry of the upper classmen. We managed to adjust ourselves to our new environment and began to partici- pate. Our class officers were: President, Larry Hairston; Vice- President, Mary Choate; and Secretary, Elvenor Hairston. Our first real experience in Language Arts included a unit on the “World of Work and a trip to the Career-O-Rama. This gave us an idea of what our future would entail. Barbara Bailey, Patricia Parker, Mary Choate, Ruby Cockerham and Anita Goldenbecame New Homemakers of America. Spencer Hill, Ronald Hauser and Roger Stewart became members of the band. Many took an active part in the student government by joining the Student Council. Before we knew it the year was coming to an end. Jerry An- derson and Elvenor Hairston went to A. and T. College to a science symposium to represent our biology class. As a result of their hard work in the choir, Alene Pinkney, Mary Hauser and Barbara Galloway “stole” our annual talent show. Finally June came and a year of hard work and fun was over. George Young, Jean Sellers and Ronald Haith were honored for special achievements in Social Studies. We left school with great anticipation for the fall when we would be sophomores. After a delightful summer, we again arrived on Carver’s Cam- pus. With a year’s experience behind us we got right down to hard work. We began to lead scholastically. Our officers were; President, Elvenor Hairston; Vice-President, George Young; and Treasurer, Larry Hairston. Franklin Wilson took an interest in dramatics. Whilhelmena Moore, Susan Jones and Barbara Galloway were majorettes and Ruby Cockerham made the cheering squad. Those who became Future Teachers of America were: Inez Furches and Jo Ann Anthony. Y-teens included Donna Howell, Mary Goodwin and Mazell McCoy. Lorenzo Pearson, Frank Gwyn, Donald McCoy, James Tatum and Franklin Wilson got their start in football. Among those who remained on the honor roll for four quarters were: George Young, Jean Sellers and Elvenor Hairston. The year ended and another chain of experiences were added to our high school days. At last we had reached our half-way mark. We entered the halls of Carver with high hopes and great determination. We were stunned when fate took from us our dear and beloved principal, Mr. Carl R. Martin, Jr. He passed on January 18th, a day we shall never forget. Mr. Martin was very concerned with us as students and was a guiding image for us to follow. Not only through our high school days was he prevalent in our lives, but for most of us, during our entire school career up to this point. Mr. Martin’s funeral was held in the school auditorium. After mourning the death of our principal, we realized that we still had to strive toward achieving excellence at Carver. With grief of our terrible loss we were more determined. Mr. Ernest E. Balsley became our new principal. He cer- tainly was not new to any of us because he had been Mr. Martin’s assistant for a number of years. Our officers were: President, Brenda McCutcheon; Vice- President, Daniel Feaster, Jr.; Secretary, Alene Pinkney; and Reporter, Ronald Haith. The next edition of the Carver Hi-Lite, with Jean Sellers as co-editor and John Caesar, Awilda Cannady and Wilhelmena Moore as staff members, was dedicated to Mr. Carl R. Martin. Linda Thompson and Emma Johnson became Junior Egineers. Eugene Gray, Jerry Anderson and Ronald Haith got their varsity start in basketball. We made a grandstand performance in representing Carver in various activities. Among the participants were: Catherine Scott, Carolyn Elder and Joan Stover attending the National Science Convention in Raleigh, North Carolina; Daniel Feaster, Jean Sellers and George Young representing Carver on WSJS Televi- sion on the annual Junior Town Meeting; Carolyn Carter repre- senting Carver in the Miss Teenage Winston-Salem Contest and Emma Johnson, Daniel Feaster and Brenda McCutcheon attend- ing Bennett Saturday School. Stars in the dramatic production of “The Groom Said No” were Franklin Wilson and Carolyn Carter. In the spring of ’66, the school board made a decision to close Carver for the followingyear due to its anticipated small enrollment. This occurred when the school board made the decision to cease providing transportation to students outside the Carver District. We, as juniors definitely did not want to see our school closed, for many of us wanted to graduate from the school that had played such a vital role in our lives. John Caesar was very interested in this matter and motivated the students to back us. With this in mind we decided to march to Central Office on the day of the meeting in which the final decision concern- ing Carver would be confirmed. We stayed out of school that day and both our reasons and our march were very effective. The decision was made to leave our dearly loved school open for another year. Highlighting our year was the induction of Gwendolyn Farmer, Elvenor Hairston, Brenda McCutcheon, Jean Sellers, George’ Young and Daniel Feaster into the National Honor Society. Carver, which has always been the scene of a very consci- entious as well as a rugged football team seemed to be on its way out of 4— A competition. In the summer of ’66 due to rumors and a very late decision by the school board as to what the future of Carver would be many of the football players made plans for attending other schools because football had madetheir names. Some of the players confronted with this problem were: Lorenzo Pearson, Jerry Anderson, William Gwyn, George Young and Larry Hairston, just to name a few. The problem was conquered and a rather comfortable football campaign was launched. .“Moonlight and Roses,” the theme for our Junior- Senior Prom climaxed the events of our junior year. At last we were seniors. We finally reached the peak of our goal. Many in our group were elected to important positions. James Tatum became president of the Ushers Club. Barbara Galloway was elected head majorette and traffic manager. Awilda Cannady was elected captain of our Letter Girls, flag girls and gun bearers. Our senior class officers were: President, John Caesar; Vice-President, Elvenor Hairston; Secretary, Linda Thompson; Treasurer, Wilhelmena Moore; Sergeant-of- Arms, William Gwyn; and reporter, Arwilda Cannady. Brenda McCutcheon became our Student Council President, with Elvenor Hairston as Editor-in-Chief of the Carver Hi-Lite. George Young was elected President of the National Honor Society. Among other participants were: Essie Fulton and Ann Totten in NHA. Patricia Parker and Carolyn Summers in the dance group, Donald McCoy in the Dramatics Club, Jean Sellers, Roslyn Malone and Minnie Benson in the choir along with Mary Hauser. Brenda McCutcheon experienced her first year as a majorette and Elvenor Hairston as a cheerleader. A Junior Achievement project was sponsored by the business men of our city. Among the achievers selectedto participate were: Joan Stover, Jackie Grace, Ronald Haith and Jerry Anderson. Scholastically, George Simmons was one of several seniors remaining on the honor roll. Emma Johnson, Wilburn Hayden, John Caesar, Elvenor Hairston and Jean Sellers are members of the debating club. Taking advance placement courses at Reynolds were Brenda McCutcheon and Daniel Feaster. Boys becoming skilled in trade classes were: Claude Sales, Harry Transou, Carlton Huntley and Cornelius Spease. The students became very interested in the traffic in our halls and cafeteria. A host of students joined organization which dealt with these problems. Among those on the Traffic Squad were Napoleon Crowell, Joan Stover, Susan Jones, Patricia Parker and Wilhelmena Moore. The cafeteria core included Ann Totten, Linda Thompson and Spencer Hill. Mazell McCoy highlighted our homecoming events by reigning as “Miss Carver.” As the “graduation spirit” hit many of the seniors we found ourselves boostering our basket- ball team to a victory over Atkins, our rival school. Among those included in the line-up were: Eugene Gray, Frank Gwyn, Ronald Haith and Lorenzo Pearson. And now the time draws near when we must leave our beloved Carver family. From freshmen to seniors we have had our thrills and joys and our disappointments. We have had the guidance of three principals. With deepest gratitude to those who have helped us up this difficult ladder, we lower the lid on our treasure chest of memories; of our trials as well as our triumphs; of our losses, as well as our gains; memories to be filed away in our cabinets of remembrance, only to be recalled at will.
