Memo r 1 e s H e r o f Who’s that flying down the hall, Doing something nice for all Who’s that decorating for a dance, Planning fun for all in advance. Of course, it’s Maggie. Who’s that cheering with ten girls, Changing jumps and adding twirls. Who’s that coaching on the court, Calling girls to a favorite sport. Of course, it’s Maggie. Who’s that instructing, with such vim, Tumbling and jumping in the gym. Who’s that waltzing with my boy friend, Teaching the steps from start to end. Of course, it’s Maggie. We all know her without a doubt, She makes us smile instead of pout. A grin, a laugh, a joke or two, She’ll never leave you feeling blue. Are Lasting Ones To one who has long deserved the honor, we humbly dedicate this 1957 edition of Puffs and Patches to MRS. MARGARET WHITE This is but a small token of our heartfelt thanks for your devotion to your work, your understanding and interest in our problems and your immeasurable assistance in all that we have attempted to do.

JOHN S. HERETICK, B.A., M.A. Assistant Principal University of Virginia St. Charles College An office is the hub of every school and an effi- cient staff makes the wheels turn. Many and varied tasks must be performed daily: absentees to be checked and recorded, menus to be typed and distributed, bulletins to be circulated, paper and pencils to be sold, and requests of the princi- pal to be carried out. Our school secretary must instruct her assist- ants in operating the various office machines. Then these industrious workers keep the type- writers, duplicators, mimeograph and adding ma- chines busy throughout the busy school hours. MRS. ERNESTINE HUMPHRIES School Clerk Left to Right: Margie Stone, Charlotte Myers, Pat Chanfiberlain, Vivian Knick, Norma Anderson, Nelda Suroski, Brenda Sizemore, Mrs. Hunjphries, Frances Steger, and Donnie Back.

Teachers gather for a few short minutes of relaxation in the cafeteria. “You wouldn’t be trying to put any- thing over on me, would you?” exclaimed Mr. Taylor. 17 JULY AUGUST 24 — Football Practice Begins SEPTEMBER 3 — Labor Day 4 — School Opens 6 — Election of Cheerleaders 14 — Open Football season against Wm.

It seems like yester- day when I first entered the high school doors as a Senior. It took a while to realize that this was my very last year within these familiar walls. Receiving my class ring and marching into assem- bly made this fact seem a little more real. Then as each week went by, my ultimate goal loomed larger and closer in my future. Ordering cards and announcements, looking forward to the Prom and planning for Class Day each took their place. In some ways I’d like to do it all over. However, I think all my classmates will agree, nothing beats being a senior at C.H.S. Michael Miller cast his vote at Precinct One in the 1956 Presidential election. Hammond’s elephant is portraying- the Republican Party at our Mock Conven- tion. Glover and Downey are busy selling copies of the Announcer.

Parent-Teachers Asso- ciation. In addition they gave a radio skit over WKEY for National Education Week. Boys who are interested in radio have a golden opportunity to in- crease their knowledge of it in Mr. Jonas’s class. They learn the principles and methods of assem- bling a radio, as well as, the fun- damentals of electricity. in the Students in psychology present panel discussions as part of their regular class work. Their favorite topics deal mainly with the prob- lems facing teen-agers today. Mrs. Mustoe uses the map and globe to illustrate the territorial growth of the United States. Her class studies the history of Amer- ica from its birth until the present. 58 The mechanical drawing class is concerned with learning to place on paper the ideas of engineers and physicists in such a manner that the ideas can be translated by skilled craftsmen into working models. Films are valuable learning aids in any class. Mr. O’Rourke selects many documentary and fictional ones to supplement the work in his American History course. c 1 a s s r o o m These students are preparing themselves for a future in the business world as secretaries. As typists they must practice for perfection and speed which is necessary to be a success in a competitive business world. 59 “I Sophomore Class Officers President Marie Bennett Viee President JANET ANDERSON Seeretaru NANCY Rice Treasurer H. L. WICKHAM My first week at Covington High. Such confusion ! It seemed as though I’d never stop filling out forms, cards, and schedules, get the up and down stairs straight, or get acquainted with teachers and upperclassmen. It didn’t take too long to get in the routine and after initiation I felt as if I really belonged. I really had to work to get biology and algebra, but altogether I liked my subjects and teachers. In fact I enjoyed my whole year at Covington High and am anxiously awaiting those to come. Cheerleaders and Pom-Pom Girls add a touch of glamour to our football games. Mr. O’Rourke takes his history class to the library for research work. Coaches Albert and Deacon ready the refresh- ment bar for the sports enthusiasts.

Student « Council Student Cooperative Association of Covington High, sponsored by Miss Thomas and Mrs. Cvizic, performs a very important function in the school. The most important duties of the S.C.A. are to plan all the assembly programs for the year, keep order in the cafeteria line and lunch room, and to control traffic in the halls and on the stairs. Aside from this the S.C.A. also plans the Sophomore Dance and the Christmas Formal to raise money for the treasury out of wlTich the club pins are bought. This year C.H.S. was the host school for the Roanoke District Meeting. The Student Council is composed of repre- sentatives from each homeroom and sophomore, junior and senior class representatives.

Besides deciding on a new theme, style and color, we have to get ads, sell subscriptions and take pictures. The dummy has to be drawn, articles written and proofed, and everything typed ; only then comes the completion of the actual stages. These are only a few of the many things that must be done to publish an annual that will hold many memories in the years to come. This year the Business and Editorial Staffs have been combined for the first time to give ev- eryone an equal opportunity to increase his knowl- edge of journalism and to gain experience in dealing with the public.

THE FUTURE BUSINESS LEADERS OF AMERICA ARE OUR CONTRIBUTION TO BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY The F.B.L.A. organization seeks to develop competent, aggressive busi- ness leadership, and strengthen the confidence of young men and women in themselves and their work. Our club creates more interest and under- standing in the intelligent choice of business occupations which gives us the desire to participate in worthy undertakings for the improvement of business and community. Also, it de- velops character, training for useful citizenship, and fosters patriotism. Reid, Wilmer, Stokey, Martin, Car- ter, O’Conner, Suroski, Myers, Childs, Miss Jones. MAY THESE FUTURE TEACHERS GUIDE AND TEACH OUR CHILDREN WISELY AND THOROUGHLY One of the things I enjoy most about high school is being a part of the Future Teachers of America. At our club meetings we discuss qualities of a good teacher and things we can do to make ourselves better when we teach. We also observe classes at Jeter which is interesting and inform- ative. It isn’t all work, though, for we have a lot of fun planning and enjoy- ing socials.

THESE FUTURE HOMEMAK- ERS OF AMERICA WILL BE THE EFFICIENT WIVES AND MOTHERS OF TOMORROW The Future Homemakers Club is open to all girls who take home eco- nomics. There are one hundred and eleven of us at the present time. We have two main goals which we have set for this year. They are: to under- stand the importance of home eco- nomics and the opportunities avail- able in the field; to become a useful, worthwhile citizen in the home, school and community. We sponsor three main social events during the year. One of these is a tea, given in De- cember for the faculty, mothers and school administrators. In February we have a Valentine Dance. Then in April we have our annual Mother and Daughter Banquet.

IN SPEECH ARTS OUR HIDDEN TALENTS ARE REVEALED We, the Speech Arts Club, have learned much this year about the “art of speaking” and how to read and appreciate plays (under the lead- ership of Mrs. Van Osdol). Our proj- ects this year have been reading plays, studying and interpreting poet- ry, and writing three original one-act plays. Bowers, Bartley, Neill, Rhodes, Byer, Mrs. Van Osdol, Hall, Goode, Humphries, Warwick, Knick, Laven- der. FROM BACH TO PRESLEY IN OUR RECORD CLUB For me, the Record Club’s motto, “To acquaint the member with the fact that there is more than one type of music and artist,” has really been fulfilled. Before I joined this club my whole diet was popular music. But since joining the Record Club, the discussions led by Mr. O’Rourke have helped me to appreciate and enjoy semi-classical, classical, and instru- mental music, too.

Nancy told me I would be taught to play many new games, the rules for these games, and even the way to shuffle cards correctly. I want to join this club because knowledge of games is essential in many of our social circles and is a good way to spend leisure time.

Pom-Pom Girls This was our first year of working with the C.H.S. band, but we quickly got into the swing of things and had a lot of fun working up dance routines and helping in half-time skits. whirling the fluffy blue and gold pom-poms. I hope they have the pom-pom girls for many years to come and that each girl will have as much I loved wearing my snowy-white uniform and fun as I did. BIRD WATCHING IS FUN IN THE NATURE CLUB I have given many reports on ani- mals and plants and have seen many movies which make the Nature Club most interesting. In the spring we go on field trips to learn to recognize animals and plant life. We have made many drawings to put in our scrapbooks from the in- formation we gained from reports, movies, and field trips. Swihart, McCallister. Lair, Sharp, Eggleston, Turner, Smith, Potter, Rogers, Reed, Mrs. Curfman. UNRAVELING MYSTERIES IN THE SCIENCE CLUB I couldn’t make oxygen or do any other experiment so I joined the Science Club today. Since experiments go on every Wednesday under the direction of Mr. Jonas, I learned to make oxygen by using the formula 2KCLO yields 2KCL-f.30-. This club gives me the opportunity to experiment and in- crease my knowledge in science. Craft, Semones, Mr. Jonas, Bowles, Terry, Snead, Harmon, Deacon, Rich- ard, Thacker, Johnson, Winton. LEARN TO KNIT WITH EASE IN THE HANDICRAFT CLUB I was interested in knitting so after Phyllis told me about the Handicraft Club, I joined it right away. So far I have been taught the arts of knitting, crocheting, and the skills necessary to accomplish these arts. Mrs. Pitman told me I would later learn to darn and embroidery, too.

TRAVELING IS INTERESTING AND FUN Our Travel Club consists of thirty students from all classes who are in- terested in learning’ about near and far-away places. This we learn primarily through the eyes of the camera or by pro- grams from people in our community who have traveled to the places we hope to go. In the Spring of 1957, the club hopes to take several tours of famous shrines in Virginia.

JUST TAKES A LITTLE MORE TIME, ENERGY AND STUDY TO BE A BETA The Beta Club is a national organi- zation for students in Senior High School. The members are chosen on the basis of their scholastic average, leadership, character and achieve- ment. This year with Jimmy Oliver as our president, we hope to sponsor a dance and to raise enough money to send some of our members to the National Beta Club Convention in Richmond.

REPORTERS OF C.H.S. KEEP US APACE OF THE TIMES Extra! Extra! Want to keep up with the big school activities? Sure you do. Everyone likes to know all the news. Our Reporters Club under the direction of Miss Thomas helps us all do this. These boys and girls spend lots of time rounding up the news, reporting, and editing. Several members of the Reporter’s Club are sent to the Southern Interscholastic Press Association at Washington and Lee to learn how to make-up a better and more interesting paper.

THESE BOYS KEEP OUR BUILDING AND GROUNDS IN TOP SHAPE The School Service Club under the direction of “Boodie” Albert helps keep our school clean. When the windows get dirty, they are the ones who help to wash them. When a bulb burns out they replace it. These young men are handy men around the school. They help keep our school in “top” shape the whole school year.

LEARN TO DANCE THE C. H. S. WAY “Two Different Worlds We Live In,” the title of this song expresses the feeling I had before I became a member of the Dance Club. Until this year I could not dance well enough to feel at ease while on the dance floor, but now after only a few months of instructions under Mrs. White, I am proud to say I can dance much better. At our weekly meetings we have learned the waltz, jitter-bug, rhumba, tango, and several square dances.

I learned the purpose of the club which is “to create, maintain, and extend throughout the home, school, and community high standards of Christian Character.” Throughout the year we have planned to have morning devotions, contribute to the Community Chest, and give our annual Soc-Hop in January. We also planned to give a basket of food to a needy family at Thanksgiving, contribute to the Red Cross Christmas fund, give worship programs at several P.T.A. meetings, and sell Easter lilies for the Crippled Children’s Fund.

Musical tivities I finally got in the Vocal Class along with 74 juniors and seniors and a few lucky sophomores. We learned to sing the scales — trying to use what the teacher called “diaphramatic breathing.” I loved listening when the others sang their solos, but I could hardly conquer my fear long enough to sing my own. After being in Mrs. Flesbman’s Vocal Class for a year, I felt privileged to become a member of the A’Cappella Choir and the Glee Club. I could hardly contain my pride when I donned my cream and maroon satin robe and sang with the group for the Silver Anniversary tea of the Covington Senior Woman’s Club. Oh, and there was the time we sang for the Foreman’s luncheon at Westvaco Club; and the Student Council invited us to sing for their district meeting.

At Our High Scho I really felt like a celebrity though when, after the Christmas concert at school, we made our television debut over WSLS in Roanoke! But we never rest on our laurels in this class — No, indeed! No sooner were our exams finished than we started working on the Minstrel. And work is the word. Fun is the word, . ' too. I enjoyed every minute! Again, we didn’t relax for long. We started preparing for the Spring Concert. Because everyone in school appreciates the concert so much, we thoroughly enjoy pre- paring for it. Oh, there is so much to remember about our musical activities. And no one ever had more pleasant memories than I. Director of Music Nell K.

THE KEEP VIRGINIA GREEN BOYS PROTECT OUR FOREST From our first out-door practice, I knew I’d like being a fire-fighter. Learning to work the various extinguishers, planting young saplings and hiking up and down hilly terrains, we were always on the go. Our main job was to work quickly and efficiently as a team. Although we didn’t meet every week, when we did, our job was an important one. When fire struck, there was no chaos for we all knew what to do. The feeling of a task well done really made it all well-worth while. Catron, Arnold, Bazzarre, Fairburn, Mr. Powell, Ham, Burks, Lacks, Gibson, Paxton, Lipes. SAFE-T-KINGS HELP TO PROMOTE BETTER DRIVING HABITS Our club is sponsored by Joe Sizemore and Calvin Wright and consists of 27 members. The purpose of our club is to promote safe driving.

We’ve got the team, we’ve got the fight, we’re going to win before the night. CHEERLEADERS I wonder what high school would be like if I weren’t a cheerleader. There would be no pep ral- lies and no football trips. No rushing around to the cleaners for uniforms and polishing shoes at the last minute. No pom-poms or megaphones to carry and no jumping around in freezing cold weather. I’d miss the Hamburger Fry at Hoodies, the Quarterback Club dinner at the Steak House, and the cheerleader’s special banquet. From the beginning of football season straight through until the last basketball game, adds up to six delightful fun-packed months I could never do without.

As I look at it, I remember my team-mates, the endless hours of practice and the many games won and lost.
