Absorbed in their drafting work, Instructor Dario Santi and Takashi Ono work out drafting problems in an intelligent manner. Larry Morrison studies the rules and regulations of parking at CVT1. Mr. Bishop shows his willingness to help as he helps decorate for the Christmas Dance. Larry Pope sprays Don Story with crazy foam to show the student body what he will go through to get elected to student council. Cvti’s “Personality” is a reflection of worn notebooks, turned-down pages in texts, pools of activity in the student center, crowds around the juke box, and quiet couples holding hands. It is a re- flection of our own which pictures us striving for a better education while liv- ing our lives to the fullest. It is obvious what is on Barry Spencer’s mind. ■8

It is evident that the students of CVTI are hard at work as Terry Herman checks out a book from Mr. Cooke. The Hickory National Guard Armory is the setting for the Christmas Dance and Student Council members Regina Payne, Ann Lawter, Don Story, and Larry Leonhardt are hard at work on decorations. Caught in the act of daydreaming David Smith thinks of some hard test questions over a cup of coffee. Dirty bluejeans and ragged tennis shoes are both a Larry Leonhardt and Don Story campaign hard to be elected to the student part of CVTI’s Personality. council.

edicated to . . . It is with much gratitude that we offer this small token of our appreciation to a person that deserves recognition. After graduating from Balls Creek High School, she entered Lenoir Rhyne College in 1951. In 1953 she re- ceived the A.B. Degree in Journalism from the Univer- sity of North Carolina. She has also attended Trinity College (Hartford, Connecticutt), Colorado State University, and Appa- lachian State University. Social activities include membership in the Altrusa Club, Hickory Business and Professional Women’s As- sociation, The American Association of University Women, Hickory Junior Woman’s Club, and the North Carolina Women’s Association. Some of her hobbies include painting, sewing, reading, classical music, bridge, and stamp collecting. Prior to teaching at C.V.T.I. she has worked in the advertising department of an insurance company and as a reporter and woman’s editor for the Hickory Daily Record. Although she has been very active in civic organi- zations, we especially want to recognize her for what she has done for C.V.T.I. Besides being an excellent English instructor, she finds time to be advisor to both the annual and newspaper staffs. In honor of a person who takes a personal interest in every student she teaches, and who is more than a dedicated instructor but is also a patient, warm-hearted individual with many outstanding qualities, we, the members of the Catvatechi Staff, wish to express our deepest thanks and appreciation for the time, effort, and dedication that she has shown us. We, the Catva- techi Staff of 1968, dedicate this annual to Miss Anne Huffman. As she gives a lecture to her class, Miss Huffman poses a very serious glance.
