She arrived to take over on Fridap and We started asking questions on Mondav.

It is she who must lift the veil that obscures the knowledge of facts in order that we may gaze down the avenues of the past. But when these facts are as those which have become history for the class that in 1934 entered the walls of the Clifton Forge High School, the task loses its tediousness and becomes a pleasant undertaking. Now as our short high school career draws to a close, the Senior class must stop and look upon the records of its past. Although we do not stand with the laurels which the conqueror throws about himself, stopping to gaze upon his task complete, we trust that the four short years we have spent together have not been void of worthy achievements. We have striven to do our part, and such a character of work is evidently a testimony to our assertion. The opening days of the session 1934-35 brought 70 unsophisticated but determined freshmen to the door of Clifton Forge High School to join the 30 who entered in January. The lipstick, rouge, dresses wrong side out, and shoes on the wrong feet did not fail to put us in our place in the ranks of the student body. For the first time in the history of this high school, the freshmen and the sophomores were allowed to elect their sponsor. We elected Miss Sue Baker, who has made us a very worthy and loved sponsor during our four years of high school. In the fall of 1935 we returned to school as “honorable” sophomores. We were permitted to join any club that we wished. Our sophomore year passed slowly by, the only outstanding feature being a picnic, in May, at Nicely’s Bathing Beach. Once more we met in 1936 to assume with pride the dignity of Juniors. Our class roll had now increased to 115. No longer did we dread our high work, for the goal of our ambitions was throwing rays of light along the road, and our undertakings afforded pleasures never before experienced. The journey seemed short and clearer now, the pathway not so rough. In November, the Junior class had a delightful party in the auditorium. Dancing and Bingo provided most of the entertainment, and refreshments were served in the cafeteria. On March I 9, the one and only party which the juniors and the seniors look forward to was held — the Junior-Senior Prom. Our junior year came to a close with a swimming party, in May. One more vacation and we returned, the largest Senior class in the history of our high school. Our class roll had now decreased to 94. It was during this session that we realized the true value of the good old high school days, and too fast did they pass by. We had begun to love the faculty as we never did before, and to appreciate the many kindnesses that had been bestowed upon us. In October the Senior class entertained with a party honoring the Fredericksburg and the Clifton Forge football teams. Because of the outstanding work performed by the Pep Club, Miss Phillips and her cheering girls were invited. On December 3, the Senior Play, “Happy Days,” was presented before a large crowd in the auditorium. After the play, Susan and Thomas Wilson entertained with a delightful party in their home. As the ALLEGHANIAN goes to press, the seniors are looking forward to the annual Junior-Senior Prom and several more senior parties. This is our history, briefly stated. Would that we could experience again those dear old high school days. We know that we have often missed the mark, but our motives have been sincere. We hope that the history we must make for ourselves after the walls of Clifton Forge High School cease to shelter us, may be as great and worthy as that which this record predicts. Ever shall we be loyal to this great school, the one that has prepared us so well to encounter the rebuffs of fortune that we must meet along the rocky road that winds to some realization of our dreams. Helen Smith WE SENIORS This day’s attainments may not he our goal; If so, to us the winning is hut failing; For aught which blinds the sight to brighter friendships. Or stays the foot from mounting higher summits Such friends — such scenes not easily are forgot. Not one hut with reluctance bids farewell; To friends and scenes from which we must depart; From whom to sever gives somewhat of pain. For none can say if we shall meet again Such friends — such scenes not easily are forgot. And yet our spirits rush to greet such tasl(s As those which future days hold before us; And though our paths here may change. Our ever-lasting friendship will remain Such friends — such scenes not easily are forgot. Raymond Nichols JUNIOR CLASS James Dellinger Frances Acnor. Martha Jones Lyle Lumsden....

The Mountaineers went the entire season without receiving defeat even at the hands of the three A Class schools with whom they had games. Although having gone the entire season without defeat, the championship was awarded to a team, who had played teams from every stagecoach stop in the county, known as the Covington Cougars, with whom we are all familiar, I think. The championship was awarded before our annual clash with the Cougars who have for many years now received defeat at the hands of the “Green and Gold Mountaineers’ from the walls of dear old C. F. H. S. and the never-lacking coaching of Floyd S. Kay. The game to which every red-blooded Mountaineer looks forward to was played on Thanksgiving Day. This game, as the rest, ended in victory for a team which had fought a good clean game the entire period. Covington s goal, having never been crossed this season, was crossed twice that day with the addition of two successful conversions of extra points. At the end of the game, the Mountaineers returned home victorious over the half-state Champions. FOOTBALL BOYS ' RUNNERS-UP FOR Thomas Murray BASKETBALL DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIP Wirte Goode Floyd S.

I he season which looked very dark at the beginning turned out to be a most successful one. Having lost the first three games of the seascn, the worm turned, as the expression goes, and the boys turned in the next five games for victories. Their winning streak was broken then only after an extra period was played with a very well organ- ized team from St. Andrews. After this loss, the boys continued on their path of victories which included two exciting wins over our ancient but high spirited rivals, Covington. The boys team won eleven out of sixteen games in all and won ten out of twelve conference games which placed them in the play-off for the championship of the district. In the tournament they lost a very exciting and hard fought game before a crowd of loyal supporters, who followed them to Lexington, where the game was played between Fincaslle and the Mountaineers.

F. H. S. This year the team won five out of thirteen games which was a great improvement over the teams of past years. Not only is this such a great improvement in the number of games won, but the team was able to tie our most “Honorable’’( ?) rival, Covington. These girls, although defeated many times, have never to our knowledge lost a single game in an unsportsmanly manner and for this the Senior class lakes hands with the rest of the school in congratulating them at this time. I also want to express at this time the girls’ and Miss Van Horn ' s appreciation of the invaluable help given them by Ed Tomcat Marshall. 55 1 .i l BOXING TEAM Bernard Harvey } Junior Vermillion [ Co-Captains B.

This did not stop our boys, however, because their first fight was their first victory. In this match with Central, we won four, drew two, and lost two. This was the only bout the team engaged in last year due to a late start. T his year the team was sponsored by Mr. Kemp, who has just returned to us from V. P. I. where he had spent a year in furthering his knowledge of Chemistry. The boys were more anxious than ever before to box and when the first call went out for candidates it was responded to by a large number of boys in every weight. After long weeks of practice and coaching by Mr. Kemp, Clarence Chapman and Earnest Rudisill, the team engaged in a match with Boiling Springs. 1 his was another victory for our team.

Without the support and cooperation of our many loyal friends, this annual would have died in its embryonic stage. At this time, I wish to thank the faculty and student body lor the splendid cooperation and support given the staff members. You have met us way past the dividing line and I want you to know that when I say, “Thank you,” it comes from the bottom of my heart. Support comes also in another suit — financial. We have none other than the business concerns of our and surrounding cities to thank for this necessity. Each has more than con- tributed his share. Although not appointed to assist in this work, some have given more than their support. I wish to express my deepest appreciation for the splendid work rendered by Evelyn Wynne, Adolphus Craft, Eleanor Hartbarger, Helen Smith, Caroline Paxton, and Addison Smith. We also feel greatly indebted to Mr. Scott, who furnished us with several pictures. Without the aid of all we would never have been able to complete this annual which we hope will serve as a true token of the Senior C lass of 1938.

THE IMPRINT PRIDE Bids for patronage on a basis of price alone get small response from people who know the true worth of good quality in PRINTING. They prefer to pay the slight difference in the cost of good printing over mediocre printing because of the vastly superior RESULTS obtained — and RESULTS, of course, are paramount. BELL MADE ANNUALS are produced by skilled craftsrren to meet the most exacting requirements. But, measured by the standards of real service and satis- faction, they are, after all, the least expensive. PRINTERS OF THIS ANNUAL J. P.
