REFERENCE ONE A Do Not Remove from the Library J Puffs and Patches ifgriiaiias Geneaiiogicai Society FaLLIX(, Sl ' RlXCS 1929 PUFFS and PATCHES Vol ume VI Published by the Students of Covington High School Covington, Virginia Dedication l.oiig ago when Alleghany was just a wilderness inhabited sparsely l)y the hrst pioneers (jf this section, an Inrlian, friendly to the white man and his projects, came from another secti(jn to he a sentinel for the weak settlers. He built his home in a cave near a spot known as Anthony’s Knob, and from that location built the fires which gave the signal of a j)ro])Osed attack by his former tribesmen. As ' ' S])irit of Mountains” came to aid the pioneers of Alleghany, S(j has a man with a wonderful perseverance and ability come to aid the ])ioneer athletes of C. H. S. As the Indian was as a vision to the pio- neers of Alleghany, so has this man l)rought to the athletes and student body of Coving- ton High a vision w hich we will ever try to reach in the future endeavors of our school. T(j show in a small w ' ay the appreciation that is felt for the (uitsider who has joined our ranks, we dedicate this sixth volume of 1’l ' Ffs and Patch i s to Coach Guy E. Rice May the years bring to him success and compensation for services rendered to us. ’e, the Staff of ' 29, hail you, O “Spirit of Athletics.” — The Staff. Foreword W hen Alleghaii} ' was just a wilderness inhabited b ' liostile Indians wlio fought and Ininted and roamed the forest in search of adventure, brave men and women came and in the struggle for existence began the history of our home county. The years have ]iassed steadily on and on, and many pioneers have also jiassed on,” but imaginative youth looks back and dreams of those days when our ancestors began the civilization of Alleghan ' . As other pioneers have fol- lowed high ideals and produced a happy, sjilendid county so have we, the pioneers of 1929, endeavored to blaze new trails and leave new records of accomjilishments in the vicinit} ' of our Alleghany. That the deeds, the joys, and the trials of our class in our beloved homeland may not be forgotten, that the brave feats per- formed and trying ordeals endured liy the fir.st pioneers of Alleghany may not lose their place in our memories, and that the love of (.mr home county may be re- newed, we, the I’ioneers of 1929, jniblish this volume of 1’uffs and Patches. d ' urn the pages and live again the glories and defeats of the pioneers, both )’ 0 ung and old.

SciiWAUKR, Class Foci. History of the Class of 1929 “We can not tarry lierc, Wc must march, my classmates, vc must l)ear the hours ol labor. We, the adsancing class, all the rest on us ilepcnd, I’ioneers! () I’ioneers!” When Alleghany was yet unlajrn there were men who came eagerly into her lutiire houndaries, men seeking ]irogress hy means ol labor and finding ius]iiration in the tall strength ot mountains. , s these men lelt the urge to clear, to fight, to build, and with all to find beauty in the distant curve ol a winding stream, so did we, the Pioneer Class ol 1929, desire to seek and find the best in (.)nr lour years ol work in the Covington High School. “.Ml the i)ast we leave behind, W ' e debouch upon a newer and mightier world, varied world, hresh and stronger the world we seize, world ol labor and the march, I ' reshmen ! () I ' reshmen 1” d ' he first winter which we S|ient in .Alleghany’s houndaries was long and hard. Perhaps the stories which had reached us of easily gotten gain in this new land were a little exagge- rated. Certainly we found that clearing away a forest or two and building ])ermancnt foundations were not the trivial tasks we had contemplated. Of course there were other groups near by — Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores — who had come a year or two l)efore us and were in various stages of progress. Some ol their mem- bers dro])])ed hack to work with us a |iart of each day; a fact which impressed upon us new- comers the im]K)rtance of clearing every obstacle out ol our way as we went. We had heard much of Indian attacks and were waiting eagerly for our first encounter with the hostile red skins. Ivvery alternoon Pioneers Smith, Hughes, Pailey, Fowler and others, much to the delight of the feminine faction, threw, kicked, and hatted halls about in training for the fight. ()ne da ' soon after our arrival we men were suddenly attacked from the rear by a horde of what we th(.)ught were scarlet savages. It was not until a weapon, wrested Iroin one ol the attackers, i)roved to he a i)addle instead ol a tomahawk that we realized that the onslaught was merely our initiation, a manifestation of the hearty welcome which our co-i)ioneers gave us. We had not been forgotten by the Hai)i)y Hunting (iround aspirants, however, lor they catne almost weekly lor lour v ' cars — some I rom West Virginia, some from nearby counties, d ' he fiercest combat was alwtiys with an Itidian settle- ment called Clilton Forge, it took much ingenuity on the ]iart of the girls to invent cheers of sufficient volume to drown out the enemy’s war hoops and tom-tom heating. I ' he Indians were always strong atid swift, hut the courage and fighting si irit of early settlers usually won for us the victory. Hiscipline was hard during these early days, and our most difficult task was keeping the Study Hall Plank as em|)ty of culiudts as the last word indicates. Manv a list went to an untimely death in the trash basket while the olTenders dashed to a much-needed jiractice on the athletic field. So “autumn Hashed into autumn again,’’ and F.. i)erience, that best of i)edagogues, had taught us much of Life. “ W- detachments steady throwing, Down the edges, through the passes, up the mountains steej).

Proad fields awaiting cultivation lay on everv side; mountains climbed ever higher as we strained to reach their summits. Realizing the need for a leader whn would unselfishly direct our entcriiriscs, we chose Virginia Schmader to map out and plan our course for the year. ' Phis new territory contained a field, Biology, which struck fear to the hearts of man -. (fur jiioneer ]iro erh, “Familiarity breeds contempt, was oft-quoted liy Helen Arritt as she shuddered at sight of some insect calml)- awaiting dissection. . midst our tilling of the field of jilumules and hy]iercot ls there could often he heard the sounds of wars and rumors of wars. L pon iin estigation we found that the land ad- joining was called (lallia and had something in commmi with ' I ' liree-Tn-One oil. C aptain C urfman’s irre ()cable command as he urged the I’ioneer l’ri ates on was “Render unto C’lesar the things that are Ctesar’s.” Harry McCarthy became quite an accomplished eques- trian at this point, posting through the (.lallic Wars with great eclat, although in later ' cars X ergil’s VX’ooden Horse almost threw him. In this year one of our pioneers, Tazwell h ' owler, was chosen from the four classes as the hest-all-around hoy in school. “On and on the compact ranks With accessions ever waiting, with the place of the dead quickl} ' filled Through the battle, through defeat, Moxiug yet newer stojiping.

Chemistry and (civics, added to our original grants, but as a whole m(.)St of the year was si)ent in cultivating and i)reparing for the harvest those grounds over which we had worked so assiduously lor three years. Many ol our laborers had won renown, A’irginia Schmader and William .Adelson in the literary field, Plllis Hughes in that of music, and l.illian Hite in advertising circles. June brought with it an honorable discharge and testimony ol wairk well done for most of us. It also brought much of sadness with the realization that pioneer days in .Alleghany were over. .Again we are seeing vision of lands hearing unconquered mountains and unknown rivers, and again we are feeling the urge of the iiioneer “ I 0 strizw to seek, to find, and not to yield.” — FORKItST StlTI ' HIX, Class Historian.

Ronceverte Hjchi was onr oppon- ent in this game, hnt Void and Illne outplayed them more than the score shows. Clifton Forge High, onr great rival, won one of the hardest fought games in the history of either school. Hlen.a ’i.sta was an easy victim for the Covington lads; the second string men were iila_ ed most of the game. Lynch B iRG High ontjilayed C. H. S., piling 11 ]) 22 points in the hrst half, hut not scoring in the second half. C. M. S. Reserves gave the team a hard scrap, lint by the means of a safetv in the hnal jieriod C. 11. S. won. A. M. A. Reserves iiresented a much heavier team, hut a llashy of- fense made the Covington hoys vic- tors. S. M. A. Reserves were beaten by eleven fighting jilayers and two beauti- ful runs for touchdowns from mid- field. Harrisonbi’rg High boys were not able to cope with the strong running attack hurtled against them. In point of games won and lost, C. 11. S. leaves behind one of the finest records ever made b ' a I’hie and (fold eleven. Opponents i: =3 TOTAL HL (.tHES— Guaui) For four years “Tiihby has lieen one of C ' f vin ton’s mainstays on the forward wall. Starting out as a j uard in 1925, he was shifteil to tackle in 1920, hut was returned to iuard position in 1927-28. His play has ))cen consistently of a liiiuh caliber, ])articularly on tlie defense, as he developed a habit of ' pendin a considerable portion of his time over in the ojjponent’s backheld stopi)in ])lays before they coubl get under way. After four years of ff) 0 tball, “Tubby” is i)assing out of High School atldetics, and the gap which he leaves between center and tackle will be extremely hard to lill. P AII.EY— Tacklf. OTTEN— Tacklk “Funy,” with only one year of experience be- hind him, ushered himself into a regular i)Osition at tackle. He was a sterling defensive man, break- ing up many jilays behind the --icrimmage line. He also i)ossessed that ([uality of being able to get rough, a quality which is essential to any good tackle. Otten was an all-round tackle. His i)er- formance on the team this year won for him an honorable mention on the mythical all-state team. j lr. Rice and .Mr. ltchell liave been a very necessary part of the football scjuacl. Always ])res- ent regardless of rain or shine, mild or freezing ' , these two well loved coaches have worked out each afternoon, j atient and untiring in their efforts to make the C. FT S. s(iuad a winner. h ' or three years “Uuzz” has been an outstanding High School tackle with each season showing a sle- dded improvement in his game. Roth offensively and defensively this lanky, shifty, hard-hitting lineman has jilayed havoc with opi)osing teams. The 1928 season found Railey at his best, and his ])henomenal play i)roved a feature of each of the nine games in which his team appeareil. Ira was unanimous choice for captain of the team. an l in this capacity he proved himself a (luick-thinking, cool-heatled leader. He wa characterized by his coach as one of the best cap- tains he had ever seen in High School football. Railey was ])laced on the second team of the all- state S(juad selected by the coaches of the teams jiarticipating in state league play, and had more coaches seen him in action lie would undoiilitedly liave been on the br t. I l- ' .XX I X(;S — I I i.i-r,Ac ' K Wiley is an example of wliat perseverence and experience will do for an athlete. In the fall of 1927 it seemed impossible for him to j et going, but he stuck to his guns and received his rewanl during the past ' ' eason. He developed into one of the finest interfering backs ever turned out at Covington. an l this ability to take out o])j)osing ])layer-s i)roved the way for touchdowns upon a numl)er of occasions. Jennings has another year of football ahead, and we predict that opponents will realize that he is troul)le in large |uantities in l ' 2 ' b DUXIIRACK— Enii Hilly ' s outstanding play at right end was one of the features of the 1928 campaign. Huring the ])re- vious season he had been used as a substitute guard and showerl no excei)tional ability in tha t position. W’hen shifted to end he immediately showed a vast imjn ' ovement and opponents found it jiractically im- I ossible to gain through his position. His offensive i lay is improving rapidly, and in addition to his work as a wingman, he is the best i unter on the s iuad. This youngster will be heard from before he finishes his High School career. I ’El )i( ;n — G uaki) “Spurg i ossesses the rather unusual ilistinction of winning a monogram in his first year on the High School s iuad. Jack i)layed either as a guard or as a tackle and put uj) a creditable performance in either I)osition whenever he was called into action. This lanky athlete possesses a world of natural ability, and we l)redict that another season will find him acclaimed an outstanding High School lineman. A1 1 1.LER — Halfback We introduce in this paragraph a top-notcher among High School backs, a sjjeed merchant extraordi- nary. a trii)le threat i)erformer of high caliber, an excellent interfere! ' , and a l)ack whose deadly tackling makes his defensive play a.s outstanding as his offense. “O. K. received honorable mention for all-state honors as a reward for his last season ' s efforts. He was the chief scorer of his team. an l his excellent all- round play in every game of the schedule drew favorable comments from si)ectatf)rs, experts, ainl opi onents alike. Here is a youngster who possesses about everything that star backs need, and we expect to hear from him when he stei)s out with some college si|uad. I )l I St ' OI.L — C kn i I ' .n This one hundred and thirty pounds of ti lilin} ' Irishman entered tlie ;;ame at Staunton just after l” ' aiHlree liad received a broken lej and proved more than a match for his far lieavier ami much more ex- perience l opponent. “Pat also i)ut up a creditable i erformance in the Harrisonbnri mme and ) ids fair to deveb)p into one fd ' tlie best centers ever turned out at IF. S. vS.M ri ' ! ! — ( lUAKI) I ' ur three years “Pill has been an outstandini u ird, and his i erfr)rmances of tlie past season won for him an honorable meiitioit on the mythical all-state si|ua l. “Pill was an exceptionally fast chai ' KinK line- man and possessed that rather rare faculty of not only coming out in the interference l)ut of really clearing the i)ath for the man with the ball. REA — Exit Por three years the lanky form of A. i ea has been seen out on tlie left wing, and it is a known lad that no great number of gains have been made by ojiponents around that left Hank ' . Rea is unusual as High School wingmen go, in that he is stronger on oitense than on defense. He has develoi)ed his offensive play until there are few tackles whom he cannot box abine, leaving the wing liack to take out a secondary would- be tackier. Rea has one more year of football, and we preilict for him a great season in l‘)20. ERGENRRlGnT— HAi.MiACR “Scruli. although in his first year in High School, bids fair to be an excellent footliall player. He has all those (jualities which are re([uired to make a good backheld man. Carl is a fast, short, stocky fellow, giving a good account of himself when he carries the ball. Carl was also an excellent defensive back, ami took care of his i)Ortion of the backhebi, which all good backs do. He will be in his future years as good ;i High School back as can be found. j ON KS — OUA in ' ERI’.ACK As a Held general wt are coiitideiit that “Ditz is without a superior in X’ir inia Mij h School circles. A keen student of the j anie and i)OSsessing much natural football ability, Jones has developed into an unusual High School tiuarterback. He is one of the best pass receivers in the state, in a ldition to ranking as a trii)le threat back who i)roved to lie trouble for all oppf)nents. In the open held he is excei)tionally shifty, and as he picks up si)eed he will be valuable material on any college s [uad. His defensive play stands out no less prominently than his offensive. He was iiveii honorable mention on the mythical all-state team. I ACl I A L — ( ' inARii Kachal came to us in his Senior year from the High School at Uramweil. West X’irginia. Over in ihe mountain of our neighboring state he ha l ac iuired two years of football exi)erience. Trom the first of the season his defensive i lay showe l to advantage, while his work on the (� ffense imj� roved steadily throughout the season. He has been used chiefly as a guard, but is also ca])able of giving a good account of himself in the pivot jjosition. 1 ( )( iEIvS — Kui.i.uack Albert, although light for the fullback position, filled it in a very exceptional manner when called upon to do so. Rogers is an excellent defensive back; his tackling, which was exhibited in (piite a few games, was an outstanding iuality. He also develoi)ed the art of blocking to a high degree and used it efficiently in clearing the way for the bail carrier. In the next two years, much is expected of Rogers. 1 )KAC( )N — FlTLLliACK ‘■J)eak’‘ develojjed into an unusually fine fullback during his first year in High School and in his iirst season on the varsity S(]uad. Possessing a ty])ical fullback ]� hysi iue and weighing 185 pounds, this boy proved to be a terror as a line plunger as well as in backing up the line. “Five-Yard Deacon” became his sobriquet, and he i)roved that it was not a misnomer. As an interferer, Deacon’s steam roller tactics cleared the path for the ball carrier on many occasions. When he hits an oi)ponent a i)rotest is often ma le against allowing mallet locmmotives trt i)lay football. COUliKN — H.M.i ' iiACK “Pink ' ’ has het-n tiie re l-heacle l liack of our s«ina(l for the i ast two seasons. He is a ood defensive man, and at times shows an uncanny al)ility of ehiding woidd-he tacklers. He has improved rapidly as a hack, and in his remaining two years of Jligh School football great things are expected from tliis red- headed youth. aicCarthy— ' I ' ACK i.i- “i rac” was a hard-hghting Irishman, winning Ids letter in his Setdor year. He was a tall, rangy fellow and when in the game he put all his strength in each play. He had that “Never-Say- 1 )ie’’ spirit, and each play found him scrapi)ing and living uj) to his fighting Irisli name. “ Fac” was anotlier all-round fighting tackle. K 1 NCy 11) — 11 Aid-n. ' CK Kincaid for the past three seasons has been a great asset to our footliall teams. Although not a dependable defensive back, he was, on tlie other hand, (juite caitable of i)laying a brdliant offensive game. He was one of those fast, shifty backs who are entirely necessary to a winning football team. Kincaid shouhl olitain great things next season. FAUI )REE — Center Faudree was shifted from guard to center in order to fill the place of Captain Pob lirgenbright, who was ineligible for this season. In this new l)Osition he played a consistent game and made an excellent showing until Hame Fortune in the form of a Ijroken leg receive l in the S. A. game, ended his foot])all for the year. i Fr. Allen, with his splendid business ability, has surely l)een tlie person most responsible for the successful financial conditions f)f C. H. S. Athletics.

Not so long ago the daily reviews chron- icled the deeds of the l)ohl)ed-haired bandit, and the respectful folks of our county sat hack in open-namthed astonishment, and marveled at the daring of those modern girls,” but we wonder if they have tlnjught back to Alleghany’s early settlers. For in Alle- ghany was found, around 1767, an outstanding woman character who rode, killed, and avenged. Marvelous tales have been told of the exploits of this woman who scalped Indians, defied death, and married three times. The bravery of Ann Bailey has Iteen given to us in the account of her relief of I ' ort Lee where now stands the ca])ital of W est X’irginia. The Indians surrounded the fort and the gun powder gave out, so our heroine rode f)ut on her black horse and came back soon with a supply of gunpowder. Ifven at forty-three the endurance and vitality of our famous character was not decreasing, but al)le to meet an ' situation. The women of Alleghany have a];])reciated this brave ancestor for they have erected a monument to her memor}’ on the Hot Springs Road. Indeed Mad” Ann Bailey was a picturesque figure in her riding breeches, mcjunted on her black horse, “Pool.” She was a woman who drank often, swore constantly, and lived to the last in a log hut with no comforts and few necessities. At the age of eighty-three Alleghany’s brave, uncultured yet charming first woman bandit passed on. I Katherine Van avern 3MANCI ' and realism have been combined in the his- tf)ry of the hrst woman of Alleghany who came with- in the borders for the purpose of imparting knowl- edge to the children of the four families who lived in the district which is now called Clifton Forge. Katherine Van- stavern, although harel_ ' known to many inhaldtants of our pres- ent county, had her earl_ - history tilled with as many thrills and adventures as an}- modern girl of today. The legend goes that Aliss Vanstavern had an admirer, a graduate of William and Alary, and incidental!} ' a brave and daring hero for his lady-love. One day as the pretty teacher went about her tasks, five Indians arrived on the scene, and kidnapped her. h ' ortunately her lover was near-by, as was to he expected, and rushed in to save her. True to movie tyi)e, the pair became engaged, but the Indians determined to secure the }-oung lad}- f(jr themselves, so once again they made an attempt to kidnap her. Once more, our hero, Harry Gorman, appeared on the scene and bravely rescued his fiancee from the redmen. An immediate marriage followed. The Indians had been wounded and some of their number killed, and so they gave up the attempt, and returned to their wigwams and squaws. We hope that the bride and gnjom lived haiiiiily ever after as the hero ai-id heroine do in all fair}- stories and legends. Thus is recorded Alleghany’s first schoohna’am. I ' osicii m ' M AN loKii-: K i i ii Ann Royall ' MR a luindred year ago Alleghany laid claim to a writer of fame and authority; she was no (Jther than Ann Royall. .Vnn began life as a shy violet type of a girl with clear lilue e_ ' es, and a [jleasing personality, hut she was destined for higher things than a simple domestic life in the hills of ( )le” Virginia. a stroke of Fate this shy, re- ticent maid met her future husband. Major Royall. It is said that probably nn Ro ' all never to( ' jk a word (.)f advice from an ’ human e.xcept her husband, and every word he mentifuied was law to her idolizing heart. Her devotion lasted through his last illness to his death, and then the old shy, reticent, side (jf Ann’s character fled, and in its place came bitterness, and cruelty, and stubborness. In 1817 Ann Roy all began her travels and for years she traveled e.xtensively, drinking in the adventures and customs which came her way, and linall} ' in 1824 she j)ul)lished her hrst bo(jk. Life, Maiiiiers, and Customs in the United States. Pos- sessed of a surprising energy and unconqueralde determination, this Ijrave woman set up her own ])rinting ])ress in ’ashingt()n at the forced inconvenience of removing her sink ' , made enemies by the scores because of her scornful speech, was admired b ’ young men, and was persr)nally acquainted with every President from Washington to Lincoln. Always frank aiifl sincere this lighting” .Mleghanian worshi])ped Hod in the sanctuary of her own home but never with the crowfls. The key-word to her char- acter is endurance and she lived true to it as a true Pioneer.

Ileauty contests, that hane of the guile- less shepherd Paris, and the ultimate aim of all womanhood, hold the spotlight throughout the world today. The glorifying of the American woman has its attendant circumstances. Dress has changed; so have the dainty little mannerisms of yester-year. The spirit of our own ' A’irginia Lady is incarnate t xlay. She lives and moves in old . lleghany. Mis Alleghan_ ' can never die. Leauties come and go; this “Sweetheart of Our Hills” goes on forever. As the years move onward, and the beauties and charms of youth graduallv one bv one take their de[ arture, the eternal spirit of youth will adaj)! itself, and Alleghany shall never fear that with the passing of one generation, the old enthusiasm and glory shall fade, for “vouth is eternal,” and the charm and beauty of Alleghanv ' ’s women are as evddent as in the i)ioneer days, the bravery and daring are not decreasing, Imt rather the world is witnessing the suijreme height of American womanhood. All the daring and glorv of IMad , nn” Hailev is combine l with the grace and beauty of charming Katherine X’anstavern in the modern women of Alleghany. Thus we hail the eternal grace and beauty of Miss . lleghany.” Endword .Viiother year haN taken its ni,t;ht, and youth has seen many marvelous things accom])lished in the area of Alleghany.
