He learned eariy in his life that independence of thought should he the guide for every individual. Not only did he huiid his own life around this idea hut he went to great eijfort to show others the way. Consequently he he- came one of America's greatest thinkers and an aiiiatus to all succeeding gene- rations. He has heen our inspiration, for we have seen how many of his maxims oi' wisdom ht into our everyday schooi life. XVe have realized what a force is unity in our iivesg how important each day, to every other day: each step, from elementary to high schooig each parent, to teacher: each student, to hothg and we have with gratitude to Emerson chosen as our theme his immortal words: fill are neetieii lay each one Nothing is fair or good alone.

Winter comes and with it basketball! One of the first games of the season finds the A.C.C. gym crowded with excited spectators. Lane Thomas, Tommy Calhoun, and Shir- ley Overman decorate the cafeteria for the annual Iunior-Senior banquet. -lo Ann Joyner struggles to hang on to her hat as Robert Slater drags her along to catch the train to the Fayetteville game. Mary Frances Collins and Stevie Yionoulis capture the spirit of the 'f gay nineties in their Sweethearts of Springtime sophomore prom.

High School Principal Mr. Willard is more than a guide to usg he is our friend! He tries to make our needs his obligation. With sympathetic understanding he helps us im- measurahly in our daily problems. He is a man of the highest calibre-great in all that is fair and good, and unwavering in his beliefs. He is humble- though determined-and kindly, with a generous thought for all. VVe are fortunate in having him as our friend for, as Emerson said, NA ftienol may he well reckoned the masterpiece of 1ItIfIl'l'C'.' ll3l ega- gf' ,fl gig Q- -U Bccause ol' the qualities ol idealism and high aspiration ol the people portrayed in this section, the XViIson citizens owe a debt which can never be paid in dollars and cents. Surely there is not a hunilv in the whole cornrnunitv whose Iilie has not been touched, inspired, and Iilited by one or more ol' the people on these pages. lI'e are reminded that people are pictured here who have served twenty-Iixe years, or even more, in the public schools ol Xvilson. Children have started RECOGNITION NIGHT . . good, Olga em . goof! lgulai A . Mr. L. Farmer and hlr. S. G. Chappell, in I recognition of their years of untiring service to the XViIson City Schools, received gifts of appreciation Iroin the local N.C.E.i-X. at Ll banquet in November. It was with regret that we learned of Mr. Farmers resignation as chairman of the Board of Trustees. Left to right: hlr. Farmer, hlr. VViIIard, IN'Ir. VVoodf I till, President of N.C.E.A.g hlrs.

Always they have been seeking the new approach, the new idea, realizing that there is nothing more important than teaching the students that everv man has access to truth and strength-that hc can think his own thoughts, I5 waII4 on his own Ieetfi and be his own prophet. The trustees taIIc together for a inornent after leaving the banquet table. Pictured at the left are Xlr. Crow, Dr. Filte. Mrs. Fleming, Mr. Forbes, Mr. Adams and Mr. Chappell. Mrs. King and Dr. Hunter were absent. The banquet scene is at the right. i NGVEMBER THIRTEENTH 6006! .Zac QPJ g...,.f 5zf.....A ln recognition of their twentyffive or more years of teaching in the VVilson City Schools, service pins were presented as a token of appreciation to each one in this group of which our hflrs. Blackburn was absent. Pictured fire, first row, left to riglzt: Misses 5 1 E. Langley, b. Sanders, E. bynum, Mrs. VVells, Mr. Chappell. Second row: Misses L. Culpepper, R. Lacy, Mrs. Roberts, hliss N. Pruden, hlrs. Uzfell. VVe were glad that on the happy occasion of this banquet we were permitted to send our photoe grapher to record the event in pictures. It was a gala affair-one long to be remembered, we are told, by all who were there. The Carolina Room of the Christian Church never was more beautifully dece orated, the men never looked handsomer, the ladies never looked lovelier, our choir never sang livelier, and appreciation was never expressed more sincerely than on this night-ewhich was as it should have been. ,lt is with true humility and great pride that we present these people, our school hoard members, our superintendent, their guests, and our teachers of longest standing, realizing that we, as they have been, are ever unconscious of the influence that we may have one upon another-and that-no matter what our parts may he-or theirs-that All are needed by ericlz oize, Nothing is fair or good alone. At the spe-aker's table facing us we see, among others, members of the school board and their wives. In the picture at the right are teachers and their guests. The C.L.C..I'I.S. Choir, directed by Mr. Eller, enjoyed entertaining with their delightful and humorous selections.

V RSITY BAN Exciting in their spectacular gold and blue uniforms, our Varsity Band receives a welcoming ovation wherever it goes. Before the public it makes a good showing whether in a Christmas or Shrine Parade, whether in a band clinic, or whether in a marching session behind the school buildings on a hot dusty Held in September. Patience, practice, and drill pay oil whether in programs of classical music or precision marching for half-time activities during the football season. Led by the high-stepping, white- clad majorettes and drum major, the Varsity Band adds glamor and color wherever it goes. Directed by lVlr. Eller, it gloriously represents the spirit of the Charles L. Coon lligh School. The scene of the picture is VVilson's famous Nash Street nationally known for its beautiful trees. I-frxt Voir: R.

The one requirement to be a member is that the student likes to sing, or at least to try. The fourth period everyday finds about seventy musicf loving boys and girls gathered in the hand room with the genial Nr. Ellen' ready to teach them a new song or rehearse a group ol' old ones for some program or concert. The choir has invitations to sing for various clubs, churches, civic groups and ban- quets. Sometimes they even get fedl Often they sing over the radio and we wouldn't be surprised if they appear over television before the year is outl Attired in their royal blue robes with gold stoles and arranged in semi-circular fashion, they make an imprese sive group wherever they go. And whether the program be whimsical, classical, patriotic, secular, or sacred, the choir always fills us with pride and joy in their well- doing. We salute Mr. Eller for his untiring interest in and patience with his many students, and we congratulate the members of the choir for their many glowing accomplishments. l9ll BEGINNER'S First row: Keene.

AND THE SCHOOL GETS A NEW PIANO February saw a three years' dream come true for the Charles L. Coon P.T.A. and the school. During Mrs. J. D. Blount's term as president of the P.T.A. the idea of purchasing a really line piano for the school and community use was conceived. Dr. Badie T. Clark was named chairman with lVlr. Roscoe Eller as co-chairman, and Mrs. Badie T. Clark inherited the job of steering the project into its second year. Mr. Frank Denny became the third presi- dent in the three year period with lVlr. Russell Stephenson as vice-president. Contributions of money and hard work made this dream come true. The school may now be proud of owning a beauti- ful Steinway concert grand piano. EVERYCJNE HAS The Store Important in every day's life is the student store. There in room 20, we huy our pencils, paper, scotch tape, Kleenex and sometimes pennants, and hooster hats! Joyce Snipes, Barry Lamm and Baker lVlorgan give us smiles and courtesy for free. Mr. VVoodall is the adviser of this cheerful and ohliging group. The Driving Course The sixteenth hirthday finds most of our students applying for their drivers' licenses. Perhaps they have already finished their class- room training Linder Mr. Hyde or lylrs. Black- hurn and will get a chance to steer the new Ford presented for teaching purposes to hir. Vvillard for the school hy lVlr. Bradley, city dealer. hlr.

Course Wliethei' at the electric light plant, the bot- tling works, the dairy, the garage, the theatre or the store, Mr. Hyde's boys get the jobs and stay on them! Why? Its all a part of the diversified occupations course that is popular with more students than can be accommodated usually. The seniors who are lucky enough to be enrolled in this course spend part of each school day in class, taking-along with their D.O. subjects-those other subjects required for graduation. After lunch they go in many directions to their respective jobs where they learn the details of such vocations as they have chosen to follow. Many students become in- terested enough in their particular Helds to make careers of them. As they are serving their apprenticeship they are paid wages-and a grade on the report card. lWr. Pt. W. Hyde has been the popular teacher and coordinator of this course for the past eight years. ln the top picture, V. Richardson learns how to run the electric plant, and in the mid- dle picture K. Braswell works at a bottling plant. In the bottom picture, the members of the class are shown. They are, first row, sitting, left to right: T. Penn, C. Little, Mr. Hyde, K. Renfrow. Second row: B.

During the first half of Conference play, the Cycs won only one game, in the next three games of the season, the team dropped two while finally gaining their second victory in Conference play. The outlook was not too bright at this stage of the season because the Cycs had to win two of their three remaining games to gain a place in the State Tournament. These three ga mes were to be played against opponents which P Blake tries one of lzis deadly lay-ups, as B. Baud mul D. TTIIIGCZEI' uiatclz. KETBALL had dumped the Wilson boys at their hrst meet- ing, but the team's desire was not to be forgotten, and they beat Fayetteville to brighten their hopes, then Rocky Mount, the Conference leaders, came to Wilson and pulled a tough game out of the fire in the fourth quarter. The pressure was really on the team when they played in Durham in the deciding game, and though they were off stride in the first half, Wilson caught fire and won the game and a play-off berth in the AAA Tourna- ment. The boys are ready to break out on the court a ter a needed time-out. Top left: B. Band and jones are listening to Coach Cilkersonls advice during a time out. Coach Bogers seems to be interested in something across the court. Top right: P. Blake lays one up while being closely guarded by Washingtcun players. F. Deans watches and waits to get the rebound if there is one. Middle: P. Blake and an opposing player put up a fight for the ball under the basket, during this exciting game. Lower left: B. Band is planning to score in spite of the Fayetteville Bull- dogs' effort to stop him. Haclge and P. Blake watch his determined attempt. Lower riglttz Time out again, P. Blake, B. Band, jones, and Creek- more pause for instructions from Coach Cilkerson. It must be a fast contest be- cause the boys seem awfully tired at this stage of the game. 1. 5 'Q A w gs E E1 X -1 5- I ' ,5,fYfYa., Q m5,,,ls'i M 'M Zi, M f 1 K. -IM y. , fy fy :X ,Q X. f .i - X Q ..Q 151, 1 X E.

This year the club began an entirely new award system. For the first time each senior member was presented Other members were awarded IT1OI'lOg1'HIHS or certificates if they had won monograms pre- viously.

CHEERLEADERS THE BACKBONE OF OUR SCHOOL SPIRIT Shouting 'til the rafters ring, our two sets of cheerleaders are graced with in- fectious personality. Clad in gold and blue they appear at every athletic contest lead- ing us with their timely yells. A school is not complete without these spirited people. VVe are proud of our cheerleaders for with- out them we could not have the unison of school spirit which prevails at every Charles L. Coon athletic contest. Those of us who were there will always remember the en- thusiasm which was shown by the VVilson fans at the Rocky Mount basketball gameg though we were a definite underdog, our students almost broke the balcony down. The cheerleaders were certainly responsi- ble for much of this spirit. VARSITY CHEERLEADERS Stcmding: E. Baltzegar, S. Dillon. Seated: L. Thomas, Jarman, P. Pappas. Bovette, M. Fike, Liles, C.

I 1 Ei. t at nz, ll As the leaves turned bright colors of red, yellow, and orange and autumn smoke changed the sky into a hazy blue, we slowly settled down to another year at Charles L. Coon. It was a year filled with parties, trips, studying, and fun. The thrill of back to school had taken place in our hearts and many activities loomed in sight .... In October, a press conference sent the staffs of the Cocoon and Radiogmm to Chapel Hill. Barry Lamm snapped some of the group, B. Zwahlen, D. Anderson, Miss Aycock, P. Matthews, Mr. VVoodall, and W. Cardner, as they visited the Cimghoul Cas- tle .... Billy lVlinschew's house was the scene of a big party at llalloween .... The first P.T.A. meeting got underway as parents signed for their childrens home room at- tendance prizes and the home ec girls pre- pared refreshments for a fine social hour. First Football Sponsors Then, too, came the excitement of electing our lirst football spon- sors and their escorts. ll. Edmunson, Allen, K. West, and V. Cobb were selected for the Fayetteville game. J. Childs sold tags to a group of students during the Student Council Tag Day. L. Hadley and B. Morgan bought one from him. The Key and Keyette Clubs worked hard selling peanuts with the Kiwanis Club to raise money for charity. The workers enjoyed a barbecue supper before starting out to sell. A Thanksgiving program was given just before the holidays by Mrs. Patterson's group. E. Adkins read the scripture for the program. Autumn activities gave the students a chance to participate in community al-fairs. Several girls helped the Loyal Order of the Moose in their minstrel show. Another big feature was the weekly pep rally. The -Iunior Cheer- leaders were full of pep as they danced around on the stage after leading the yells for victory. --,., ir Y As in past years, we chartered a train for the Fayetteville football game. The Key Club spon- sored the trip and operated a concession stand From the baggage car. S. Strickland, B. Davis, and S. Yionoulis loaded the drinks onto the car. lnside, the merry-making had already begun with singing, laughing, and joking. VVhat a boistrous affair it wasl In the last car laughing and singing loudly were: lYl. Brown, ll. Powell, M. Pike, B. Slater, P. Barnes, D. Llewellyn, D. Vvheeler, L. Thomas, B. Dillon, VV. Baltzegar, S. Yionoulis, and bl. Reynolds. llomecoming was another big event of the season. This year we did not have the usual Good Will Tourn with Rocky hlount, but, that did not hinder in the good sportsmanship which was shown by both sides. Sponsors were selected and, with their escorts, met the Rocky Mount sponsors during the game Friday night. The weatlieifs being extremely bad made half- time activities impossible. The sponsors, how- ever, walked around the held together, and then returned to the stands where they sat and watched the Cyclone football squad battle Bocky Mount on a cold, wet held. The sponsors were, standing, left to right: hl. Bradley, Corbett, V. Cobb, Jones, Allen, Nl. Wile liams, Bass, and P. Franklin. Seated: Draughn, D. VVheeler, B. Etheridge, B. Slater, li. lkner, and K. VVest. N The night hefore the homecoming game a sock hop was held in the warmth of the high school gym. This was the second year that the sock hop was held and it was sponsored again hy the Booster Cluh. Everyone took oljf his shoes and joined in the fun as the cheerleaders led the bunny hop around the room. Even Mr. l'lyde's little hoy was excited as he sat in the middle of the Hoor and watched. The cheerleaders also danced to l'Hail to the Var' sity as Mrs. Liles' little girl joined them. The cheerleaders seen in the hottom picture are L. Thomas, Boyette, P. Pappas, -I. Liles, M. Pike, B. Dillon, E. Baltzegar, E. Nichols, and C. Brooks. Dogpatchers could not have looked more real than the array of rahhle who turned up at the annual Sadie Hawkins dance sponsored hy the Student Council. lol. Edrnundson and L. Thomas were voted the worst-looking. Their hoohy prize, a hig lollypop, was presented to them hy D. VVheeler, treasurer of the Council. After the contest, every- one went hack to dancing and it wasnlt long hefore Dogpatchers gave their version of the Hhunny hop. Those participating shown in the lower picture are B. Kello, B. Farmer, Vvheeler, ,l. Adkins, B. Flora, L. lladley, and C. Davis. fx -4 I . f 1 Before we knew it, the weather started getting colder, the days grew shorter, and winter settled around us. Basketball was in the air and the girls looked forward to the afternoon intramural games. The Key and Keyette Clubs collected food for the needy. gl. Creekmore, Daniels, F. Deans, C. Kinny, and L. Thomas packed the last cans into the baskets. During Open House Week classes visited the Wilstmn banks. Miss Smiths economics class went and Mr. Bruce Riley showed the I.B.lVl. machine to R. Bissette, L. Hodges, D. Holloman, S. Over- man, B. Winstead, and Y. Bass. We were honored by having the Freedom Shrine presented to our school by the Exchange Club of Wilscmn. Having been placed in the main hall, the documents were read by F. Herring, B. Baker, Boyette, and Leach one morning before class. The shrine may have inspired Miss Chandler's group to present the patriotic play about the making of the first American flag. H261 4 When a student wins an honor for herself, she wins an honor for her school. Mary Hadley Pike, president of the local chapter of the Children of the Confederacy, received the high honor of being chosen Belle of the Ball at the annual Confederacy Ball in Richmond. She reigned with charm and dignity befitting a truly Southern belle. Christmas came and with it the Chamber of Commerce Miss Merry Christmas contest, held in our auditorium. Several of our students helped with the program. P. Ieflerson, S. Davis, Stith, and Winsterid assisted in the floor show and election of Miss Merry Christmas. Un the last day before the holidays, the Choir and Dramatics Club reverently enacted the coming of the baby Christ in an effective Christmas pageant. VVinter also brought us some more assemblies and several new students. Backstage activity, after a pro- gram, drew a small crowd of curious students. D. Llewellyn, Llewellyn, E. Baltzegar, B. Ethe- ridge and E. VVhitley showed their interest in science as they watched. L. jerkins, P. Barnes, and M. Fike welcomed Katherine Honbarrier as she joined our senior class in january. aa' pf 'w H273 l iw .X warm welcome was given the Keyette Club members when they met with the local Kiwanis Club at the Carolina Boom of the Christian Church. .X program of stage entertainment was also given by the Keyettes that night. The latest fashion this year was little white collars. Old Santa must have brought hundreds of them to the high school girls. Draughn, hi. Brink- ley, S. Cloudy and Bissett stopped in the hall to admire each others after Christmas. In January, a trip to New Bern for the Shrine parade was a big event for the three bus loads of our band members. Lee-jackson Day brought hir. Bradshaw, one of our favorite pastors, to inspire us by recalling the integrity of the two great leaders, and during Jan' uary, the Key and Keyette Clubs collected money for the March of Dimes. D. Matthews, T. Riley, B. Pridgen, and S. Yionoulis carried the returns to Mrs. Brandon, school secretary, for counting. We were proud of our large contribution and of the help of each student, for we realized again that all are needed in every enterprise, if we would malqe a better school and community. Spring burst out in all its glory and beauty with a million things on everybodys mind. As the book went to press, we thought of last year's events of this same season. The Columbia Scho- lastic Press Conference in March . . . Stunt Night with its endless rehearsing and the pleas- ure of looking back upon it as something worth doing . . . The glorious junior-Senior '... The Spring Concerts by the band and choir . . . Career Day for the seniors . . . The Student Council election for the next years officers . . . The arrival of the yearbooks . . . Selection of marshals on a scholarship basis . . . llonor Day . . . And finally graduationl Stunt Night was a brilliant successl P. Barnes, D. Llewellyn, W. Lamm, and L. Thomas were hilarious in Water Can't Quench the Fire of Lovef, l'Oklahoma featured a western atmosf phere with the choir singing songs of the plains. I. Lane and S. Bunn were two stars. In May, the Student Council election got underway and the campaigning ended in the auditorium with a big political rally. The Cocoon and Radiogmuz staffs journeyed to New York for the C.S.P.A. Conference. Miss Aycock and Mrs. Joyner chaperoned the trip. The group toured the city while they were there and had their picture taken in the VValdorf- Astoria at the luncheon on Saturday. Une day in May our yearbooks arrived and excitement reignedl We could hardly wait to see them! The eagerness of the students repaid the staffs for their year-long work. One day after lunch, a big crowd congregated in the cafeteria to autograph the books and we snapped a picture of the engrossed group. 'F i THE JUNICDR-SENIOR ,Xt last the night for the higgest event ol' the year arrived. The unior-Senior was just a few hours awayl Before seven o'cloclv, we hustled to get dressed and to put on the last little touches that would make us glamorous! The hoys adjusted their ties and put on their freshly pressed dinner jacltets while the girls finished comhing their hair and primping hee lore the mirror. Ar the appointed hour, we assem- hled with our dates in the cafeteria. 'lihe walls ol' the room were gaily decorated with pictures ol' street scenes in Paris, little French cafes, and flower carts. It gave the illusion of an actual Paris night cluh in the spring. The juniors had worked hard to carry out the theme of April in Paris which they did very effectively. Grace was said and the waitresses served the delicious dinner prepared for us. Some of the stu- dents quivered with excitement, however, until they had delivered thir toasts or speeches. joe jones was the gracious toastmaster who presided with great ease.
