Starting the Black Cloud Page Twenty-six -HlILLIFlil-12944 GYM .mm This is the year, the inevitable day That marks fulfillment of our long-sought dream. We're proud, but yet a little sad. We say Few Words to one another. These few hours seem Too short, too glad, too meaningful for speech. Our four full years of comradeship are gone. Our goal, our dream, is now Within our reach. We gaze beyond this hour's exultant pride To strive for life, for laughter, and for love: To use, O Peace, our knowledge in the tide To build a haven for thy war-torn dove. Through cloudy days and sunlit hours long, The memory of our school will keep us strong. COLLINS BENNETT Class Poet Page Twenty-seven HILLIEE-1944 :Qual and jizafamcnt We, the Senior Class of Chapel Hill High School, of the city of Chapel Hill, do make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament. Therefore, we do hereby bequeath these possessions to the following: Item I-Never having been adopted, we leave our ability to stand alone to the Sophomore Class. Item II-The girls of the Senior Class leave their beauty and beaux to the females of the Junior Class. Item III-The Senior boys share with the rest of the male members of C.H.H.S. their facility to pass 'by the skin of their teeth? Item IV-Madge Lois Ellington bestows upon Peggy Ann Ruark a gen- erous portion of her ever ready laugh. Item V-With fond expectations, Earl Bush is left Billy Ray's mathe- matical genius. Item VI-Betsy Ann Barbee leaves her 'malice toward none' to David Sharpe. Item VII-To Evander Blackwood and Roger Neal respectively, Johnny Canada and Ben Perry share their extra red stamps. Item VIII-Collins Bennett willingly bestows her dignity and poise to Jake Neville. Item IX-Jesse Riley's ability to manipulate the 'Black Cloud' is left to the future driver of that respective omnibus. Item X-To Jane Sparrow, Dutch Poe presents her vivaciousness as- sured that she will use it to the best advantage. Item XI-Mutt Thrift leaves his athletic ability to Benny Johnson. Item XII-Jane Johnson and John Webb bequeath their mutual under- standing to Madeleine Blount and Jack Sparrow with hopes that they will carry on in the ol-d tradition. Item XIII-Our gal of glamor, Alice Lee Merritt, bestows that prized possession upon Jean Cashion. Item XIV-Harold Cheek is the lucky recipient of Bill Kilpatrick's in- telligence. Item XV-The Proconian will have to give up its editor, Bill Lloyd, and is counting on Barbara Cashion for leadership next year. Item XVI-Clarence Bowden leaves his way with women to Leonard Smith. Item XVII-Mary Jane Nelson grants a share of her mischievous per- sonality to Ruth Young. Item XVIII-Out of necessity, Mildred Neville presents her quiet ways and thoughtfulness to Erwin Danziger. Item XIX-Carl Durham regrets that he can not leave his Hillife harem to the incoming editor. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, We, the Senior Class of Chapel Hill High School, have to this, our Last Will and Testament, subscribed our name and set our seal, this the 9th day of June, 1944.

Pg Th ty HILLIFE-1944 Glyaaa jfialczg Now that graduation has become a reality instead of just a -dream, we must admit that we are a little sorry to leave our school. The four years have seemed long, but think of all the good times we've had and all the things we'll never forget. We will all look back and remember how it felt to be freshmeng the little fish in the big new school. We didn't even know all the people in our class anymore! Charles Pullen was Student Body President that year and the library system was put in. We remember our swimming team and that ex- citing Glee Club trip to Greensboro. And remember that first high school party-the picnic out at Hollow Rock, when we all crowded on the truck and bumped out there and had a wonderful time. We can't remember our fresh- man year without thanking Coach Peacock for the good start he gave us. Next year we were bigger fish with Bobby Wettach as president. For the Hrst time one of our class ran for a Student Council office. Bill Lloyd was nominated for secretary. It was this year that all of us took a part in the sports program. Mutt Thrift, Ben Perry, and Bill Kilpatrick were the out- standing Sophomores represented in athletics. We all grew up this year- and the girls courageously started wearing lip stick. The next summer was the most momentous of our high school career- for the night of July 31, our six-year-old school building burned. We owe all our thanks to the Baptist Church for their kindness in letting us use their building during our Junior year. Under the able leadership of Billy Cheek as Student Body President we became adjusted to the new sur- roundings. With the understanding sympathy of our Superintendent, Mr. Honeycutt, and the help of the new principal, Mr. C. E. Buckner, much that we ha-d lost was restored. The High School Library was rebuilt, in a remarkably short time, to its former size and usefulness by Mrs. Peacock, Mrs. Crockford and the gen- erous contributions of the people of the town. Along with Biology and General Science a study of rodents was instituted as a supplement to American History. Two important innovations were the shortened schedule and the home room system. We ended the year with a Junior-Senior Dance at Graham Memorial at which music was provided by the Pre-Flight School Band. We started this year in the Baptist Church but after a few weeks moved to the Cone House and Elementary School which generously let us use their rooms on the ground floor. Ben Perry was elected President of the Student Body. The success of the many student council enterprises is due largely to his influence. Our athletic teams this year have proven to be the best in many seasons. The football team finished the season unscored upon and undefeated. The baseball and basketball teams showed extraordinary ability. And last of all with the determined editorship of Carl Durham we have been able to publish this our 1944 annual.

Realizing the many difficulties he encountered in the new building, we are even more grateful for what he has done. Buddy has always been a leader in activities and school spirit. BILLY RAY Taking over one of the most im- portant student offices, Treasurer of the Student Council, Billy has, from the start, worked earnestly and diligently. His excellent book- keeping has been made evident many times by his ready access to any figures needed at the Student Council meetings. Page Fofrty-four ROGER THIET In taking over the responsibilities of Vice-President of the Student Council, Mutt has shown his team work ability to the whole school. Although not often called upon to take over as president, Roger has helped the Student Council throughout the year. RACHEL BLAND Rachel's natural talent for care- ful note taking was recognized by the students in her election to the position of Student Council Secre- tary. Fulfilling the requirements of her office to the fullest Rachel has compiled a complete record of the activities of the Student Council for the past year.

He has won the respect of his opponents with his hard blocking and tackling. Bill left for the Navy in March so was un- able to finish his senior year. JIMMY BLAKE Although he waited until his Junior year to come out, Bluke proved himself by making first string. As one of the outstanding members of his class on the team, Jimmy will be counted on for great things next year. ROGER THRIFT Mutt is best known for his pass- ing and punting ability, but he is equally capable of running the ball. He has proved through his work that he is an excellent co-captain and signal caller. EDWARD BUCKNER Few boys this year could equal Edward's keen fighting spirit. By his willingness to help, he has been an example to the rest of the team. Chapel Hill 7-Hillsboro 0 Page Fifty-two HILLIFE-1944 jtoawaw EARL, BUSH Earl used his size to advantage in getting through small openings in the line. This and his speed help- ed him turn in an exceptional game as tailback. WINFRED CARROLL During his last year of high school football, Wimp showed the results of three years experience by his superb defensive play. PRESTON CARROLL Preston was one of the most con- sistent players On the team this year. He will long be remembered ici' his sixty yard run against Hills- Oro. JIMMY CRAWFORD In his first year Of varsity foot- ball Jimmy strengthened Our team. With this year's experience he should make a fine player next year.

MEBANE DURHAM Although waiting for his junior year to come out for football, Mebane got into the spirit quickly and proved to be a valuable asset to the team. LAWRENCE HOENIG Lawrence, even though playing his first year of Varsity football, showed great ability. He soon de- veloped into a polished player who easily opened large holes in the op- ponents' line. FRANK FEARRINGTON Although he broke a leg last year and was late in starting, Frank built up to an alternate starting berth at blocking back. BERNARD LLOYD Although he started late, Ber- nard was a hustler. By the end of the year he was one of the finest players on the team. Chapel Hill 0-Hillsboro 0 Page Fifty-four HILLIFE-1944 ff.w,rKal?l' BEN PERRY Ben could always be counted on to gain the additional yardage needed to make a first down. This, with his fine defensive play, made him one of the stars of the team. LEONARD SMITH Leonard was an outstanding player all year, from the first moment he stepped on the gridiron until the close of the last game. His ability as end should stand the var- sity in good stead next season. RAEFORD PERRY Raeford's keen spirit and scrap- piness made up for his lack of size. Because of his improvement dur- ing the season he moved up to the first team for the last two games. -T ,S I MARVIN WILSON Marvin's fighting spirit inspired the entire team. With his will to play, and his constant hard prac- tice, everyone agreed that he truly earned his letter. Chapel Hill 13-Bethel Hill 0 Page Fifty-five HILLIFE-1944 ffaolliaell CHARLES WRIGHT Charles' outstanding play at cen- ter was one of the leading factors in Chapel Hill's winning season. His line backing and offense play often accounted for the smile on Coach Pecora's face. 'QI I A4 E I l i J. D. WRIGHT Playing his Hrst year at Varsity end J. D. did well in every game and was continually a spark-plug of the Hillian aggregation. Much credit must be given to J. D., as he played most of the season with a bad knee. l l DWIGHT WRIGHT Although only a freshman, Dwight held his own on the team with his play at center. Through- out the season he showed great promise as a future Wildcat star.

He had a green bunch of boys, but he turned them into a smooth function- ing machine. Although he was transferred midway through the season, he should get most of the credit for the fine showing of the team. iv 'ff YRS Q1 . xit15R.Wa4e9' ' CHARLEY GORDON Charley took over the football team where Pecora left off and guided them through the rest of their undefeated season. After Pecora left the team was at a loss until Charley volunteered. With- out him the team would have been unable to go on. HARDY HENRY Hardy, also a V-12 Marine, did for the basketball team what Pecora did for the football team. With several boys left over from last year's A and B teams and several new boys, he coached the team to twelve wins against only two losses. These two losses came in the East- ern Class B finals at the hands of Sanford. TOM LANE Tom volunteered to be coach of the baseball team just when it looked as if a baseball team was doomed. Although he had a large turnout, only a few had been on the team last year. The first game was lost, but the team showed much improvement as the season pro- gressed. Page Fifty-seven HILLIFE-1944 Cdarlletllafll MU'rT THRIFT With his knowledge of the game and his ability to hold the team to- gether, Mutt was a capable cap- tain. He ran up an enviable record of 110 points scored in his last year of High School basketball. ff FRED BOWMAN Fred was always a threat to the opposition under the basket whether offensively or defensively. His abil- ity to push them in from under the basket was unequaled by anyone else on the team. Fred, together with Mutt, seldom missed getting the ball off the backboard. Chapel Hill 29-Hope Valley JIMMY BLAKE Starring at forward, Jimmy's accuracy at hitting the basket often saved the day for the Wildcats. His ability under the backboard helped the team get control of the ball when they needed it most. BILLY CARMICHAEL Billy, with his famous Gung Ho shot, Was always the favoriite with the crowd. By virtue of is fine 'playing he advanced to the A team by the end of the year. 17 Chapel Hill 32-Graham 28 Chapel Hill 33--Hillsboro 32 .

GORDON INGWERSEN Although he was the youngest member on the squad, Gordon's spirit made him tops in the eyes of his teammates. J OHN GOBBEL Johnny was always a constant threat with his one-handed shots. This and his excellent guarding made him one of the best guards on the team. BILL KILLINGER The quickness with which Bill broke up the opponent's plays and his speed in getting the ball down the court attributed to his place of high scorer with 172 points. His ability to hit the basket from any angle was the winning factor in many games. Chapel Hill 38-Hope Valley 26 Chapel Hill 37-Hillsboro 21.

Just give the ball to Bob on his side of the center line and he would put it in. His set shots pulled the team out of many a tough spot. BILL OLSEN Always alert and calm, even in the hottest games, Bill showed flashes of brilliance which foretell a bright future for him. TOM MONTGOMERY Tom's youth was no hinderance to him in playing his first year of basketball for C.H.H.S.. Up until the last two games, when he broke his finger, he was the No. 1 sub- stitute and one of the outstanding forwards on the team. ' BEN PERRY Overcoming a trick kn e e, Buddy, nevertheless, was in the starting play of nearly every game. With Mutt and Bob, Ben com- pleted the threesome that was un- beatable in bringing the ball down the court.
