More advanced courses, especially in the fields of science and mathematics, are becoming vitally important in the high school curriculum. The ALLEG- HANIAN staff recognizes the ex- cellent work which is being done by teachers to educate their stu- dents for a better life in this, the Space Age. With these thoughts in mind, the 1959 ALLEGHANIAN has been compiled.

Bill Campbell Phil Roberts Robert Warf Mike Coffey The male faction of the cast included Robert Warf, a cripple; Phil Roberts, the basketball hero; Mike Coffey, the ' Tsrain ; and Bill Camp- bell, the Senior president of Bolarville High. Helen Blair Gilmer, portraying an old maid school- teacher, tells of her latest experience to landlady, Carol Etowney, and to a timid and homesick Frosh, Goldie Ross. 20 PLAY After many weeks of rehearsals and much work on the part of the director, the cast, and committees for the set, large and small props, sound -effects, publicity, ticket sales, make-up, con- cessions, and ushering, the Seniors ' night behind the footlights finally arrived. The appreciative audience quickly became engrossed in the events of those staying at Mrs, Bremarr ' s boarding-house. THE WAGON TO THE STAR, a three-act comedy, evolves chiefly around Mary Carstens, an orphan, and her experiences with the others at the boarding house and with members of her Senior class at Bolarville High. Some of the events in the play are an imagined drowning, the biggest basket- ball game of the season, a cheating scandal, and the winning of the Honor Ring and a scholarship. Some of the thespians including Carol Ann Hawkins, Carol Downey, Sarah Brinkley, Arm Lawson, Shirley Jones, Mary Samples, Goldie Ross, and Helen Blair Gilmer as well as one of the backstage crew, John Garrison, show slight cases of behind-the-footlight jitters. Goldie Ross discusses her problems with the orphan, Mary M. Fliess. Mary M. Fliess is shocked at Goldie Ross ' s low algebra grade but persuades her to stay at school and work harder. 21 Mike Coffey, President of the Class The faculty and students alike enjoyed the banquet which was held in of ' 59, welcomed the faculty to the the dining room of the Hotel Jefferson on May 15, 1959. annual Senior Banquet.

A door opens before us, and a road leads out With the world ahead, we ' ll neither fear nor doubt. We have faith that mighty God will show us the way As we go upward and onward with each new day. We pray that each day we may be good and true And honest and strong in all that we may do. May those we leave behind all realize That no one ever fails who really tries. By John Wayne Holland, Class Poet CLA98 80NG WE BELIEVE We believe that school days are the days of fun and friendships, too. We believe that our school friends will never part, but will be true. When we leave, we ' ll say goodbye, but not farewell For we will never leave in thought. We believe. We believe. We believe that others who will follow us will feel the same. We believe that each will be a credit to our school ' s name. Every deed we do throughout the days to come Will prove the good of what we ' ve done. We believe. We believe. Now our days are drawing quickly to a close, and we must go. But before we leave there ' s something that we want you all to know. Clifton High has really meant a lot to us, so always keep her honor high. And you ' ll know why we believe.

The Hi-Y members rise and recite the club purpose--To create, maintain, and extend throughout the home, school, and community, high standards of Christian character. Both the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y Clubs have the same purpose and platform. The Hi-Y is composed of twenty-six boys from the freshman through the senior classes. To raise money, the members sold chenille animals such as skunks, squirrels, and tigers. The Hi-Y held the annual Christmas dance with the Tri-Hi-Y ably assisting. The hard work of both clubs was shown in the beautifully decorated dance, using the theme, Winter Wonderland. The club sent representatives to the district convention.

Chaplain, John Holland Treasmer, Tom Wood Secretary, Alex Diamondidis Vice President, Keimy Scott President, Jimmy Pullen Sponsor, Mr. Robert Huffman Clean speech, clean sportsmanship, clean scholarship, and clean living These are tlie aims of the Tri-Hi-Y Club. The members, selected Junior and senior girls, try to attain these goals through pro- grams, projects, and service. The girls led devotions in each home- room before Thanksgiving and Easter. They held five chapel programs in the audi- torium for the student body the week be- fore Christmas. They filled Thanksgiving baskets for needy families and sold candy for a world service project. They sponsored the Christmas dance with the Hi-Y and joined area clubs for the October program. Delegates were sent to the district convention. Model General Assembly, and Blue Ridge Assembly.

The concert band is composed primarily of high school students, but several of the members are students at Moody Elementary School. The band practiced in a building separated from the school for an hour every morning, and also during summer vacation. There is a sec- ondary band which began later than the concert band and will be joined to the concert band in the fall. The new band has been very active this year. It began by playing for the football games last fall. The concert band gave concerts for several organizations such as the P.T.A. , the Woman ' s Club, and for assemblies at the high school. Several of the members gave performances for churches and organi- zations. They played for the opening of the Little League base- ball season and also organized a summer band camp.

Lunger MOUNTAINEER STUDENT COUNCIL Miss Van Horn Sponsor Helen Blair Gilmer Vice President Robert Warf President Helen Gay Thomas Secretary Lois Thompson Treasurer The Student Cooperative Association of Clifton Forge High School consists of all students, teachers and the school principal, who are in turn represented by the Student Council. The Council is an elected group of ten Home- room Representatives, with four officers and a faculty advisor. This year Miss Van Horn served as the advisor. The S.C.A. promotes a knowledge and interest of good government among the students in school. It aids in the development of loyal constructive spirit among the students and faculty. Also, it encourages students to accept and to discharge their responsibilities to themselves and their school. The Council met regularly during the year and called meetings when necessary to discuss immediate problems of our school. The Council is primarily the speaking voice of the students in the interest of the school. They arranged the assembly schedule for the school year and had monitors in the halls during lunch hours; and sponsored the annual initiation of eighth graders, with a day of fun concluded with an assembly for the entire student body. The school Handbook was revised and a new Cover added.

To be eligible for membership, a student must have an average of 90% or better and must maintain an 88% average. The club had a very impressive induction service before the student body when the new members were tapped. The club had a very successful pop-bottle drive and many candy sales to raise funds to send delegates to the state convention. Another activity was selling Easter lilies for Easter Seal. The high light of the club activities was the attending of the annual State Beta Club convention held in Rich- mond. Representing the C.F.H.S, Chapter of the Beta Club at the convention were Carolyn Golladay, Pam Goode, Lois Thompson, Mary Maitland Fliess, Dianne Abbott, a former member, Mike Coffey, Bill Thomas, Phil Roberts, and Mrs. Adams, sponsor.

The F.B.L.A. was organized to increase business knowledge and skills, to strengthen the confidence of young men and women in themselves and their work, to create more interest and understanding in the intelligent choice of a business occupation, and to develop character and citizenship. Among the projects for 1959 were taking food goods to the Taylor Nursing Home and providing clothing for a needy child at Easter. The club was represented by a F.B.L. Queen, Wanda Hall and her court in the Homecoming Parade. F.B.L.A, members visited the Rayon Plant in Covington to see how the business offices are run. They also had a special speaker from Washington, D.C., who discussed jobs that could be obtained in Civil Service work. Several bake sales during the year enabled the club to have finances for their projects. Mrs. Pullen served as Sponsor for the club this year.

Watch out! Don ' t bum your finger. This was one of the many expressions frequently heard this year in the Home Economics Room. The Future Homemakers of America consists of girls who have taken or who are taking home eco- nomics, and who wish to be better homemakers in the future. At the begirming of the year, the girls made at- tractive flower holders out of tin cans for all the C.F.H.S. teachers. They also busied themselves making clothes for the youngest member of some needy family. For Thanksgiving, they cooked a turkey and took it, along with some caruied food, to a needy family. This year they had a big -sister, little-sister pro- gram. Also, the club presented a Mother-Daughter Banquet for its members. In the summer the F.H.A. members attended their F.H.A.--F.F.A. camp at Smithfield, Virginia.

JUNIOR CUS8ICAL LEAGUE The year was certainly exciting for the ninety-two active members of the J.C.L. who went to the state convention at Waynesboro, Virginia as representatives of the Clifton Forge chapter. While there, they presented a panel discussion on the history of the Junior Classical League as a part of the program. Katherine Rule, representing the club, served on the nominating committee for ihe selection of new of- ficers. Best of all, Joe Copenhaver was elected State J.C.L. President. The club also made Latin Christmas cards and constructed many interesting and original Latin pro- jects. Several editions of the paper IN MEMORIUM VERGILI, were published throughout the year. The club presented an assembly program on March 19. Each Latin class was in charge of a part of the as- sembly. Members participated in a Latin Scholastic Contest in April and the club observed Latin Week, April 19 through 25. 53 CLUB ACTIVITIE9 State J.C.L.

This year the C.F. Mountaineers had their most successful season since 1955. They had a 5-4-1 slate to boast a winning season. The first game with Central proved to be the best for yardage that they gained. They chalked up 374 yards against Central. In the second they were not as good, but they still managed to stomp Buchanan 20-0. In the third game, they did exceptionally well with big Jim Keyset acting as line coach, but Waynesboro managed to win 7-0. The game with VSD showed weakness as the team suffered a 27-0 defeat. They bounced back, however, the following week to spoil Natural Bridge ' s Homecoming by a score of 7-0. The Leemen of Staunton tied the Mounties 0-0 in our Homecoming. This was the first scoreless tie at the ball park since 1946. The next two games proved disappointing as Buena Vista and Lexington both romped over the Mountaineers. The Covington game, won by a 6-0 score, proved to be our most exciting game. To windup the season. The Clifton Forge Mountaineers defeated Valley High 26-7 with tremendous speed and vigor after they had captured the Little Brown Jug from Covington. Mountaineers ' Season Record C.F.H.S. OPP. 26 . .

The Little Mountaineers had a 2-2-1 record for the season. Six games were scheduled, but one was rained out. The Quarterback Club sponsored several of the games; these were played at night in Memorial Park. The J.V. ' s beat Buchanan twice to account for their two wins. In the opener they lost to Central on the Lowmoor field, but later in the season they tied Central at Memorial Park. The team did not have a regular captain as several boys served in alternating games. The Little Mountaineers lost their first game to Covington by only one touchdown and the second game was cancelled. This year proved to be an average one for a J.V. team. They should make a good Mountaineer Varsity team of the future as most games were with older, larger boys. Junior Varsity Season Record C.F.H.S. 13 0pp. 21 13 20 26 0 13 13 32 6 Three J.V.

On October 17, 1958, the long-awaited annual Homecoming once again rolled around. The tally of the student body’s votes showed that the 1958 Homecoming Queen would be Sarah Jean Brinkley with Shirley Bryan as her Maid of Honor. The attendants to the Queen were Lois Thompson, Frances Thrasher, and Beverly Gaboon. The Homecoming Parade was led by the new Clifton Forge School Band, followed by the cheerleaders, the Queen and her court, and attractively decorated floats and cars. The winning float, sponsored by the Junior class, used the rheme Hold That Line. After an exciting first half with the Mountaineers and the Leemen of Staunton battling to break the scoreless tie, the half-time ceremonies began. Brandon Shelton, the game captain, crowned the Queen and presented gifts. After the game, the C.F.H.S. students and alumni attended the Homecoming Dance, with its theme, Victory Stadium, which was held in the gym.

This year ' s Clifton Forge --Covington football game was one of the highlights of the school year. Preceding the game there were pep rallies held at both C.F. and Cov. with a pep assembly held atC.F.H.S. by the Alleghanian staff depicting the outcome of the game. The only score of the game was Fridley ' s touchdown in the 3rd quarter. After the game there was much rejoicing in the Clifton Forge locker room while there was much sorrow on the Covington side as the Little Brown Jug had finally changed hands.

Bootie Albert (sad) On Monday, Nov. 10, a group of very unhappy people from Covington entered C.F.H.S. Our students were very excited as they went to the Assembly that day. The Little Brown Jug would finally return to Clifton Forge. At the Asembly, speakers were: Coach Mullins of C.F.H.S., Coach Albert of C.H.S., Principal Curfman of Covington, and our Principal, Mr. Adams. Our new Band was on hand to play and the Cheerleaders led some cheers. This Assembly climaxed a very eventful four days for C.F.H.S. students. Mine is a success story. I had a humble beginning 21 years ago when I contained ink; now I contain lh.e hopes and dreams of the youth, the middle-aged, and the old of two communities of western Virginia. I may well illustrate the proverb, Beauty is only skin deep,” because although I am small, plain, and not particularly attractive, I am cherished, sought after, and fought for, year in and year out. Because of me, several thousand people gather annually to watch one group of eleven boys contest with another group of eleven to win me for that year. Because of me, bands play gaily, people lose their voices while cheering, people are jubilant, or they are heart-broken. And, un- fortunately, because of me, destruction sometimes oc- curs, people get injured, and some lose money. How- ever, I am not a symbol of wrong, but a symbol of fine competition, of good sportsmanship, and finally --of victory.

The 1958-59 Mountaineer basketball team suffered its ups and downs during the season, yet still finished a bit better than expected considering the loss of three valuable seniors at the mid-semester break. The Mountaineers jumped to a 6 and 2, won-lost record before the semester break. At that point, Freddy Liptrap, Ronnie Hayslett and David Webster were declared ineligible as a result of having been in school for eight semesters. Liptrap won the Lexington game at the foul line and teamed with Roy Fridley in dumping Natural Bridge, 45-43, with four seconds remaining. Hayslett scored 26 points against the Bridgers in the second contest while Webster was a valu- able asset to the club as a rebounder and pivot man. Phil Roberts, Dickie Greene, and Roy Fridley were the three regulars with any experience left on the club. Roger Bayne and C. A. Burton were elevated to starting berths and did a tremendous job. The team managed to win only one more game, but it was enough to put them in the District 5 tournament in Lexington. The Moun- taineers lost to Lexington in the first round of tourney play, thus eliminating their chances of advancement. The club finished with a record of seven wins in District 5 com- pared against ten losses. On their over-all record, it was eight wins with twelve defeats. During the course of the season, the five senior regulars acted as game captains, while Roberts and Greene finished up the year as Mountaineer co-captains. C.F.H.S. Basketball Scores C.F.H.S.

The Clifton Forge High School Junior Varsity basketball team had the going a bit rough during the past season as they won only one contest while losing 14. However, the boys were all eighth and ninth graders, who were playing boys from other schools in our district that were upperclassmen. Bob Booker was the coach for the baby Mounties and none of his boys had had previous experience on basketball teams. Junior Varsity Schedule C.F.H.S. OPP. 13 . . . . 21 16 . . . .

CO -CAPTAINS: Sally Alexander, Goldie Ross The Clifton Forge High School Mountainettes, with only one senior on the squad, compiled a record of five wins and three losses for a very successful season. The girls were handicapped by not having very many games scheduled as a result of a 30 -mile playing radius. Goldie Ross, the only senior and co-captain, led the team in scoring with an average of 11 points per game. With the remainder of the girls returning for action next season, the outlook is a bit brighter. The girls also played the C O Nurses team and the faculty of C.F.H.S. in their limited schedule. Wins came over the Nurses, Covington, Central, Alumnae, and the faculty. One of the most thrilling games of the girls ' season resulted in a loss for the Mountainettes at Covington. The final score was 40-39 after a nip-and-tuck battle all the way. The girls ' basketball program also included a jayvee team which won both of their games. One win came over Covington and the other over Central. Sally Alexander was the other co-captain, and Mrs. Virginia Nelson served as coach. 66 Girls ' Basketball Schedule C.F.H.S. OPP. 19 .

The Mountaineers had a very good baseball season this year. They were coached by Art Milona, who did a fine job. They finished the season with a 5 and 5 record in district play, and a 6 win 8 loss record over all. Outstanding in hitting were C. A. Burton, Phil Roberts, and G. P. Michael, Richard Johnson, Roger Wilson and Jimmy Walker made up the mound staff and give promise of a good one next year. With regards to next year, the Mountaineers are looking for- ward to a successful season as they are losing only one player, Phil Roberts. Highlights in the games this year were the game with Buena Vista when the Mountaineers surprised everyone with a 3-2 victory, the game with Valley when the Mountaineers got 5 runs in the 7th to win 8-3, and the first game with Central when the winning run was walked over in the bottom of the 7th. The greatest game of the season was the last at Central. The hitting was superb as Steve King opened up and connected for a home run, a triple, and a single, while Richard Johnson went 3-3, getting two doubles. 68 MO ' COOWMOl-‘l 3K Coai Phil Roberts crosses home plate.

Mountaineers, Mountaineers, nobody ' s prouder seemed to be the cheerleaders’ theme throughout football and basketball seasons. The eight peppy cheerleaders were selected by the stu- dent body after first having been approved by the faculty. The cheerleaders practiced hard to perfect old cheers and to learn new ones. They helped lead the teams on to victory by cheering at all the varsity football and basketball games. They constantly strived to keep school spirit soaring by having pep rallies, bonfires and snake dances, and by placing pep posters in the halls of C.F.H.S. Activities for the year included planning the details for Homecoming, selling megaphones to pay for new sweaters, decorating for the Quarterback Club Banquet, and competing at the V.M.I. Fieldhouse for the sportsmanship trophy. 70 The Little Brown Jug Assembly climaxed a series of exciting events for C.F.H.S. stu- dents. During the week before the annual clash for the Little Brown Jug at the Cov- ington --Clifton Forge football game, the cheerleaders had several pep rallies, par- ticipated in a pep assembly, and burned a Cougar dummy at a bonfire. At the special assembly, the cheerleaders gave several cheers as a tribute to the Mountaineers for bringing the jug back home. The cheerleaders were in charge of all the Homecoming festivities. The night before the big game with Staunton, they led a pep rally by a bonfire at Memorial Park and then led a Snake Dance down Commer- cial Avenue. They organized the parade which preceded the game; they are pic- tured waiting for the parade to begin. The crowning of the Queen and the presentation of gifts at the half were also sponsored by the cheerleaders. The Homecoming Dance topped off a wonderful evening. The gym had been attractively decorated around the theme, Victory Stadium. Patricia Burnette, head cheerleader, and Helen Gay Thomas, assistant head cheer- leader, very ably guided the other six cheerleaders and led the student body in the cheers at games and at pep rallies. They had the job of instmcting the other cheerleaders at the practices during foot- ball and basketball seasons. They helped to organize a plan which was approved by the faculty for electing the cheerleaders in the spring instead of in the fall. There- fore, by practicing during the summer, the cheerleaders will be better able to lead the Mountaineers on to victory. 71 s. C. F. H. Mountaineers getting in shape for the 1958 foot- ball season.
