Paper making and printing are the foundation stones upon which art, science, industry, and com- merce are built. School life in its present form could not exist without these basic industries. Together they form the pathway over which travels that which is worthy of thought and record. Much of the culture that is Americais today can be traced to the introduction of the paper making art in Philadelphia in i690 . . . to the comrr ' of thoughts and ideas of great men on paper. The progress of paper making -W and its com- panions, education and culture, is typified in our own town by the development of the paper industry which is a constant reminder of the place paper plays in modern living. For nearly half a century this great industry has provided the raw materials for great books, magazines, and newspapers which have been so powerful a force in the intellectual betterment of the peoples of this nation. f- :ft REAL APPRECIATICN Because of her gracious manner, her charming personality, and her cheering smile Ive have come to love .Mrs Nell Fleshman. With her great mu- sical talent and hy her untiring ejfort she has made that department of our school one of the finest. Because she has helped us. to appreciate good music and has made our high school days richer, more pleasant, and more profitable, Ive dedicate the l948 PUFFS AND PATCHES to Mrs. Nell K. Fleshman. ,Ti i, 5 J!-ig --OJ Us --rj Fw CONTENTS FACULTY CLASSES ACTIVITIES ATHLETICS FEATURES ADVERTISEMENTS 0 O K O N Qze FACU LTY IE 7A ACK!!! ll A ff 0111 PERFECT BLISS Superintendent MR. W. R.

The membership is now thirty-one which furnishes a more democratic representation of the student body. The purpose of the Student Council is to promote self- government in the school and to create in the student body a sense of responsibility. During this school year the activities of the Student Council have included, establishing the regulation for the selection of cheerleaders, planning supervision of all school assemblies, drawing up new rules for school dances, handling the sale of it second hand books for Mudenm, dnecung han and cah ena traffic, and developing greater student responsibilities 'iabout the appearance of the btnlding and the atutude of the students in general Faculty sponsors are Mrs. Lunger and Mrs. Cover. Johnny Woodson, who is president of the Council, is also president of the Hudent body.

We lead by serving others is the motto of the Beta Club. To become a member, a student must be a junior with an average of 90. He must show characteristics of leadership and be unanimously approved by the members of the club. Among the projects this year was an investigation into the point system used by other schools for participation in school activ- ities. It is the aim of the club to promote the adoption of some type of merit system for C. H. S. The officers are: Everette Kohne, Bennett Harless, Nancy lVlcClung, and John Deacon.

The editorial staff, under the supervision of Mrs. Rose, makes plans, works out the theme, prepares the dummy, and finally works it all out to a finished product. What goes into the annual is the chief headache of the editorial staff. The business staff, under the direction of Miss Mahaney, manages the finances of the book, gets the subscriptions and advertisements-the money angle is their main worry. To- gether they attempt to preserve the high-lights of the school year for the benefit of all. It strives to picture in word or photograph the fun, the excitement, the charm, and the happiness of the time spent in school. The year book is in reality the history of the events of the year. Many hours of work and worry go into an annual, but the satisfaction after it is finished is reward enough. A 5 I sxrl' NIFI plea, ,K Q. ' T JY, ffm-I THE ANNOUNCER The Announcer staff tries to cover all phases of school life and to present school news to the students in a creditable news- paper style. The Announcer is not the perfect model of a school paper-it makes no claims to that distinction, but it does represent the work of the students themselves. Those who are willing to learn the art of reporting have that opportunity by serving on the staff. It is the aim of the paper both to reflect student opinion and to help to mold a more enlightened and better informed student opinion. Four members of the staff served as reporters for The Covington Virginian when the Senior Class made their trip to Washington, D. C. Virginia Austin as editor, Louise Collins as assistant editor, and Jack Lunger as make-up editor head a staff of 28 writers and reporters. Miss Thomas, who has served as sponsor for such a long time, has Mrs. Cover as helper this year. ,,?,.f--K t z 1 x -4: Stalul Myers Tyree Mongole, Faulkner, Austin, Bennington, Horton, Thacker, Flippo, Ervin, Neal, Collins Slanrlmg Miss Thomas Sprouse, Matheny, McBee, Marlin, McCarthy, Hundley, Lofts, C.

They have the following oflicers and sponsors: Nadine Hepler, Eloise Hodges, Joanne Hodges, Julia Stinnett, Mrs. Mary Clarke, and Miss Jean Hypes. The activities of the year began with an impressive candle- lighting service for the induction of fifteen new members. Each month a worth-while project is undertaken. A basket for a needy family was the project for Thanksgiving, filling stock-- ings for veterans in the Roanoke Hospital for Christmas, a shower for a deserving person in January, and coloring eggs for the veterans in the hospital at Easter were other activities of the year. Social activities were highlighted by a box supper and dance in March. First Ron:-B. Smith, Knick, Bree-den, Bouchard, Forbes, B.

We meet at the Home Ee. cottage which is in use this year for the first time. There's new equipment throughout and a cozy fireplace in the large living room. Who wouldn't be jealous? And more than that, we have refresh- ments which is more than any other club can boast. We are learning about salads, desserts, and baking so we practice on each other at club time. Now if you think that might not be exactly safe, there's always Mrs. Gee, our sponsor, to come to the relief of the distressed. We believe that a girl can make a better impression on that certain person when he comes to call if she proves that she can make tempting candy, delicious cookies and super sandwiches. Now you know why other students envy us and why we are enthusiastic about our club. Q it 5 li ,Q is ff Scaled--Fnlsminger, Watson. Brinkley, Humphries, Cook.

Members of the club also took part in the senior play, A Ready-Made Family. Exclusive Model was presented at Harrisonburg in the District V one-act play tournament. Among the social activities was the masquerade dance given in January. The officers of the club are: Jean Quesenberry, Bill Ogden, Betty Alexander, Billie Jean Carper, and Dean Mc- Knight.

More than that we are living in an age which is be- coming increasingly scientific. Under the direction of Mr. Barn- well and with the assistance of the Virginia Junior Academy of Science and the Science Clubs of America, we are attempting in our small way to bring the theoretical and practical aspects of science together. The ofhcers are: Bennett Harless, John Dea- con, Willis Shawver, and Bob Ritsch. if Shawver, Wiseman and Smith using a tuning instrument. . K jack Crowder adjusts a microscope.

Although your definition of a D. O. student may be ua lucky stiff who gets out of assembly, homeroom, and fifth periodw the object of our study is not to get out of our classes. It is rather to teach us some specific occupation by offering ex- perience on the job. There are about twenty in our class under the direction of Mr. Hoover.

The Auditorium Club helps keep things running smoothly around the school. Maybe a better name for our group would be The Handy Men, for in addition to looking after the stage and auditorium, we help with tickets at athletic games, act as ushers at various school functions, help in the gymnasium and sometimes lend a hand at cleaning lights and shades about the building. There is some talk that we may receive monograms or some mark of recognition for our services to our school. It takes as much energy to carry stage scenery as to carry a football and sometimes more school spirit, for there is less glory attached.

'i ' GIRLS' A CAPPELLA CHORUS The girls from the vocal music class who have had the most musical training and who have had more experience in singing, especially singing without accompaniment, compose the A Cap- pella Chorus. The beautiful maroon and ivory satin robes which they are wearing were the gift last year from the Covington Weaving Company. This group has many invitations to par- ticipate in community functions as well as in school affairs. The excellent rating which C. H. S. girls receive at the annual music festival in Roanoke is clue largely to this group. First Ro1v4lVleDaniel, Walthall, Leary, Hepler, Myers, Alexander Hughes Lmkenhoker Second Rolvflxfl.

Music is an important part of life and also of school activities. The C. H. S. Glee Club is a kind of reserve which can he relied upon for assemblies and special programs and it is just pure inspiration to hear their voices echoing through the halls when they practice. Learning to sing and to appreciate good music is the purpose of the glee club. There are ahout twenty-seven girls in this group. They are fortunate to have in Mrs. Fleshman a talented leader.

' HUNTING AND FISHING CLUB One of the new clubs in school this year is the Hunting and Fishing Club sponsored by Mr. Scruggs. Outdoor life is the special interest in this group. We have been surprised at the information we have been able to acquire by the discussions and the programs in which we exchange facts and ideas. The local National Forest Ranger has been helpful and conservation films have helped to give us a better understanding of the scarcity of wildlife and what is necessary to preserve our animals and birds. More than anything else we have learned more about our own locality which is rich in many forms of wildlife. The members are interested in the conservation of the outdoor life which makes our community a favorite hunting spot. l .- .,.

The HC in blue and gold, which are the high school colors, is worn with pride-it is indeed one ol the most cherished possessions of any high school boy or girl. The fostering of good sportsmanship in school both for spec- tators and for players has been the main objective of the club. The boys' club sponsors the selection of the high school queen climaxed by the crowning at the annual Monogram dance, which is one of the main social events of the year. , 54 CHEERLEADERS Who is responsible for the school spirit at all the games? The cheerleaders, of course. The enthusiastic spirit of the stu- dents at games is largely due to their efforts. This year for the first time the cheerleaders were chosen by classes, that is, two each from the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Classes and two from the student body at large. The cheerleaders are: Betty Hall, Betty Jean Hughes, Phyllis Flint, Reva Williams, Charlotte Bouchard, Doris Kniclc, Mildred Matheny, and Mildred Wilmer. l xr ff ,W rig , ' ,--f 1' - g 2 Q' 'ij up K.

Oh, no, they were members of the District V championship football squad get- ting in shape for an outstanding gridiron season. Under the coaching of uBooclie Albert and Lem Fitzgerald and the able leadership of its co-captains, Jimmy Hawkins and Bill Lipscomb, the i947 Cougars rolled up the impres- sive record of 8 wins against I defeat. This great team avenged the defeat of last year by humbling the Handley judges I8 to 6 and kept the Little Brown Jugi' in its place in the trophy case at C. H. S. by defeating the Mountaineers of Clifton Forge by a score of 46 to 8. Their only defeat came at the hands of Wytheville in the regional championship game. The l947 team is one to be proud of and one which will be referred to in future years as one of the great teams 'Boodie' Albert coached. FOOTBALL SCHEDULE We They R once verte ..,..... ..
