Heretick, Principal 2 Mr. Heretick, Mrs. Clarke, Mr. Fitzgerald Leave After Sixty-six Y ears of Service To Covington High School Mr. William W. Fitzgerald In 1938 Mr. Heretick came to Covington High School, where he served as a Latin teacher until he became principal of Boiling Springs School in 1942. After Iris one year principalship at Boiling Springs, he was named principal of Edgemont School in Covington, where he served from 1943-1945. In the fall of 1945, Mr. Heretick returned to CHS for twenty-three years of continuous service. From 1945-1960 he was Assistant Principal, Athletic Director, Treasurer, and beloved teacher at CHS. During this time he was also a mainstay as an endman in the Minstrel and continued to coach this annual production after he became principal of Covington Higli in 1960. The well-respected Mr. Heretick, while principal at CHS, served as Chairman of the Blue Ridge District Council of the Virginia High School League. Mr. Heretick’s unfaltering loyalty to CHS has been proven by the fact that he has missed only one Cougar home football game in thirty years. Now Mr. Heretick leaves us to serve in a supervisory position. Words fail to express the deep appreciation and love we hold for him. Mrs. Mary E. Clarke Mrs. Mary Clarke started her career in Covington in 1925, teaching physical education at the old Covington Higli School. She temporarily retired in 1930 to raise her family. In 1938, she returned to CHS, where she has served as Business Education Instructor since that time. Mrs. Clarke has served as school Treasurer and has sponsored the Tri-Hi-Y since 1942. This year Mrs. Clarke has decided to retire; with her she takes the love and respect of thousands of CHS students whom she has taught. Starting his career in the field of education, Mr. William Fitzgerald began teaching at Boiling Springs School in 1953. The following year he transferred to Covington Higli but stayed for only one year. Industry cauglit his interest, and from 1956-1960 he was employed by Industrial Rayon Corporation. Missing the challenge of working with young people, Mr. Fitzgerald decided to return to Covington High School in 1961. Since that time, he has served faithfully as teacher of Industrial Training, a helpful guidance counselor, co-sponsor of Student Council, and sponsor of I.C.T. Next year Mr. Fitzgerald will be assuming administrative duties as principal of Rivermont Ele- mentary School. Although we realize his departure is a loss to us, we are sure that it will be a benefit to many others. 4 Success Our Goal Determination Our Means FACULTY 16 FEATURES 40 CLUBS 68 SPORTS 98 STUDENTS 124 ADVERTISING 184 4 SUCCESS OUR DETERMINATION OUR MEANS . . . such is the motto of Covington High’s eight hundred and nineteen students. Indeed, it is through their strong determination and hard work that they achieve success in both academic and extracurricular endeavor. Thus, the students enter the new year determined to make the year a complete success. THE VALUE OF ETV IN ACTION . . .

No, these students are not Future Fanners of America, but C. H. S. delinquents sentenced to dig dandelions from the school lawn. . BUT MR. SHAW, YOU TOLD US TO BRING A SLIDF RULE!” . . . Mr. Shaw glares with doubt at Shawn and Linda’s excuse for being late. 1 1 UM-UM-GOOD! . . . While students swelter in class, the office staff enjoys watermelon in their air-conditioned office. NEW YEAR BRINGS GOALS AN ANNUAL BREAK . . . Karen Welch takes a minute from the heated annual signing party to observe her new PUFFS PATCHES. 12 AND TASTES OF SUCCESS “QUIT PUSHIN’ ” . , . C. H. S. students rush to board the new school bus on the first day of the new year. NOT ANOTHER JOHNSON! . . . Lyndon had Lady Bird, and Lariy has Zelplia to help in his campaign for president.

Laughlin, after serving the Covington schools for one year, has proven he is “the man for the job.” He has done a commendable job in fulfilling his responsibilities as our new superintendent. Working in conjunction with the school board, Mr. Laughlin can be credited with many changes during the past year. Among the most noticeable of these is the newly painted in- terior at Covington High. Constantly seeking better educational facilities and keeping abreast of changing trends in education, Mr. Laughlin is determined that every child in the system have the best pos- sible opportunity for a good education. ON THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN . . . Mr. Laughlin, Covington’s new superintendent, pays frequent visits to Covington High. 18 WELCOME TO COVINGTON . . . Miss Payne, librarian, greets Mr. and Mrs. Laughlin at the Covington Education Association reception given in their honor. PECK-PECK-PECK . . . Mr. Heretick can often be seen demonstrating his typing ability. Mr. Heretick Reigns At CHS Covington High would definitely be at a great loss without the endeavors of Principal John S. Heretick. In disciplinary problems he is always willing to listen to the delinquent’s point of view before passing judgment. He is also concerned that every student be well adjusted and happy. Working with Mr. Laughiin and the school board, Mr. Heretick tries to see that C.H.S. has the best teachers and most modern teaching methods and materials available. In addition to his many administrative duties, Mr. Heretick combines talent and hard work in coaching the endmen and the interlocutor for the annual minstrel, always a refreshing performance. In the past years such programs of instruction as those pro- moted by Mr. Heretick have won for him the respect and admiration of both students and faculty. 19 John S.

Albert, Covington Fligh School’s new assistant principal, aids our school in search- ing for better programs in academics, athletics, and activities. Even at C.H.S., disciplinary prob- lems do arise; Mr. Albert is ready to take the necessary steps in such cases. Whatever the situa- tion, whatever the need, “Boodie” is always available. Two additional persons C.Fl.S. couldn’t do without are Mrs. C ashwell and Mrs. Humphries, the school secretaries. Typing letters, making announcements, selling pencils and stamps, and keeping the financial records are only a few of their important duties. Although the office staff is always busy, they can find time to help a new student or teacher get acquainted with our schedule. “WILL THE ACCUSED RISE AND EACE THE JURY” . . . Paul Jerman awaits Mr. Albert’s verdict-guilty as charged. 20 Counselors Concerne d With Students’ Problems When a student first enters C.H.S., he is assigned to a counselor, who will help him to choose the subjects needed to prepare for his future, as well as those required for graduation. One of the tasks of the Guidance Department is that of selecting the right college or job for each student. Most tedious, perhaps, is the task of annually preparing student schedules. However, to the teachers who comprise the guid- ance staff, the paper work is only of minor concern. The student and his individual problems are of prime importance. Every student of Covington High is greatly indebted to the Guidance Department. Helen H. Thomas B.S., M.A. Longwood College, Columbia Uni- versity, University of Virginia; Guidance; Student Council. “THIS ONE SOUNDS INTERESTING” . . .

Mrs. Snead often enjoys a bit of subtle humor with her students. English Department Experiences Changes The English Department this year boasts several significant changes a new teacher, new equipment, and a variety of teaching methods. At the opening of school, the students in English VA welcomed a new teacher, Mrs. Donna McNeally. Besides, students in various English classes found that learning can be fun, especially with Educational TV. Teaching methods, Mrs. Agnes P. Snead B.S.

Mrs. Curfman and Mrs. Noel often confer on plans for their Algebra I and II classes. 24 NOBODY BUT RICKY . . . Mrs. Ives is convinced that Ricky Wolfe is well qualified to assist her in preparing her bulletin board. Students Explore The Realms Of Math The world of mathematics is fascinating but complex. To the student of C.H.S., math provides adventure and exploration, beginning with eighth grade math and per- haps continuing into advanced math. In the eighth grade the student will master the fundamentals, and in ele- mentary and intermediate algebra he will learn additional facts. In geometry he may progress from addition and sub- traction axioms to co-ordinate geometry. Advanced math is a preparatory course for college math. Here the senior uses the addition and scalar multiplication of matrices to find the determinants. Even synthetic division may be used to factor polynomials of any degree over the set of complex numbers. This continuing process provides for the mastery of many fundamentals necessary for college or for a job. The math teachers work together with a professional co-operation to provide encouragement and preparation for each student so that he may assume his place in society. REJOICE . . .

WHAT’S HAPPENING? . . . Mrs. Mustoe and Mr. Thacker find an interesting note in the world news that they will share with their government classes. BABES IN THAILAND . . . Mr. Hammond isn’t playing with dolls-he’s displaying some of the souvenirs he has acquired on his travels. THEY ALL GOT TOGETHER . . . This is a typical scene at Covington High as the various departments prepared for the evaluation of the school. Here Mrs. Thomas and the social studies group discuss the strong points of their department. Social Studies Staff Sports New Faces Realizing the importance of appreciating the past as well as understanding contemporary situations, the Social Studies De- partment offers eager C.H.S. students a variety of courses — world history and geography, economics, American history, and government. This year there were many higlilights in the activities of the Social Studies Department. Senior government students were highly enthusiastic about the workings of the state government after hearing Delegate George Kostel, representative from the Sixth District. World history classes were delighted and mo- tivated by an early spring tour of the Nation’s Capitol. The dedication of these teachers, almost all of whom are new to us, helps to make C.H.S. the first rate school that it is. John F. Clemmer A.B.

With such a vast store of scientific information already available and with the challenge of fields yet untouched, the possibilities for exploration in science are unlimited. Having conquered the earth science and sludge separation labs of the eighth grade and the biospherical concepts and dis- section skills of biology, the upperclassman moves into the complicated world of chemistry’s atomic theory and involved experiments and the complex physical theories of light, motion, and electron movement. Through the joint efforts of willing students and the dedicated teachers of the Science Department (who, by the way, are all men), the graduates of C.H.S. are ready to meet any challenge which today’s scientific world may offer.

F oreign Languages Stress New Insights The foreign language program at Covington High includes both ancient and foreign languages, selected in terms of their educational and vocational contributions, the extent of their use, and the interest and cultural values to be gained from their study. The objectives of the Foreign Language Department are to develop listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. In addi- tion to the emphasis placed on the basic skills, each instructor is concerned that students gain insights into the history and the customs of the country itself. Surely the study of a language is a progressive experience, and at no point can the experience be considered complete or the skill p erfected. However, the students of C.H.S. certainly benefit from their study of these languages because of a better understanding of our world neighbors. 30 HEY HO! HEY HO! . . .

Fine Arts Cultivate Student Individuality A relatively small group of students at C.H.S. endeavor to develop their talents in the fine arts by enrolling in Vocal 1 and II or Art I, II, and III. C.H.S. is proud to have as its music director Mrs. Nell Flesh- man, who teaches us to sing, play an instrument, and speak distinctly. Her duties include the organization of the Minstrel and selection of the Chapel Choir. Because of her excellent leadership, the C.H.S. music department is one of the most successful in the area. The art students, taught by Mrs. Mary Ervine, not only learn to draw and design, but they also serve both school and community. It is they who paint scenery for dances and back- drops for many shows. Also included in this department is the library. Under the supervision of Miss Catherine Payne, the library challenges the students to read for pleasure as well as for information. AN EXCELLENT REFERENCE . . . Mrs. Ervine and Miss Payne are pleased with the new art materials that are available in the C.H.S. li- brary. 31 DE And ICT Prepare For Vocations Distributive Education and Industrial Co-operative Training programs combine classroom instruction and on-the-job train- ing for those students who do want good jobs after graduation but do not plan to attend college. In Distributive Education, students, under the auspices of Mr. Rose, their classroom instructor, and the employers for whom they work, learn the etiquette of retailing. They are taught the proper approach to a customer, unique methods of setting up attractive merchandise displays, the latest “point- ers of a successful sales talk, plus many other aspects of job retailing. The opportunity to learn practical skills such as auto mechanics, printing, and electronics, to name a few, is given in the Industrial Training Co-operative program. Mr. Fitzgerald, the classroom teacher, through contacts with local businesses, places his students in jobs of their interest. Through their jobs, the students in both classes gain valu- able experience that the classroom can never afford. In fact, the employer often finds his young employee’s work so satis- factory that the student may continue his job on a full-time basis after graduation. SO YOU THINK ICT IS A “CRIP” COURSE? . . . Larry Back knows ICT is not so easy as it seems, and Mr. Fitzgerald’s grade book proves it. Leonard J. Rose, Sr. B.S. Roanoke College, University of Virginia, V.P.L, R.P.I.; D.E. I,II,II1; D.E.C.A.

WRITING THOSE NOTES REGULARLY? . . . Violet Wright shakes a Little as Mr. Rose checks her notebook. 32 NOW TAKE IT SLOW - 2+2 IS 4 . . . Miss Jones patiently explains a general business problem to Pamela Wingfield. Business Pupils Master Invaluable Skills LISTEN WHILE I PLAY . . . Mrs. Clarke shows Barbara Snead how to adjust the headband on the stereo listening system used in the shorthand classes. The Commercial Department of C.H.S. is really a modern business laboratory. Conventional and electric typewriters, mimeograph and ditto machines, and electric calculators are among the various business machines avail- able to students enrolled in the business curriculum. Not only do commercial students need the practical skills of typing and shorthand, but courses in general business, bookkeeping, and business English are necessary to round out their training and make them eligible for a commercial diploma. Certain practical business subjects are offered to stu- dents other than those working toward a commercial diploma. Any student may schedule General Typing I or II, general business, and bookkeeping. No matter what skills or interests a student may pos- sess, surely there is a business subject which will aid him in both present and future undertakings. Mrs. Mary E. Clarke B.S.

Industrial Arts Stimulate Creativity Industrial Arts, one of the newest programs atC.H.S.,isa study of industrial technology. Four areas of this field are now offered. Students in grades eight through twelve may take mechanical drawing and Woodworking I. Those who success- fully complete these courses may enroll in advanced classes of architectural drawing and Woodworking II. In addition to developing problem solving skills related to the materials, processes, and products of industry, students in industrial arts strengthen their consumer knowledge and exer- cise their creativity. One of the greatest assets of this depart- ment, however, is the introduction of the student to various hobbies and leisure-time activities. Talents developed in in- dustrial arts will prove invaluable no matter what career the student pursues. WATCH YOUR FINGERS! . . . Jerry Garrett, Mickey Bowyer, and Jimmy Haynes profit from Mr. Douglas’ demonstration of the proper use of shop equipment. 34 I 1 CUT IT SHARP! . . . One of the most difficult parts of learning to drive is the mastery of parallel parking. Here Mr. Stone “points the way” to a Driver Ed. student. Samuel R. Stone A.B., Th. M. V.P.I., University of Richmond, Southern Baptist Theological Semi- nary, University of Virginia; Driver Education. Practical Arts Train For Life In the segment of the curriculum termed practical arts, Covington High offers home economics and driver education. Both of these courses provide the student with skills he will put to use time after time. Concerned mainly with domestic training, the Home Economics Department, through discussions, demonstrations, and class studies, gives the girls instruction in faintly business management, grooming, child care, and the arts of cooking and sewing. Students are also encouraged to seek solutions to per- sonal and family problems. Since the teen-ager’s most desired possession is a driver’s permit, Mr. Stone’s driver education classes are filled to capacity. Here students receive “behind-the-wheel” instruction and acquire some knowledge of the mechanics of the auto- mobile. Indeed the students who enroll in home economics and driver education do receive training in the very practical arts.” Mrs. Mamie B. Hall B.S.

Promotes Grace And Stamina Because of the lack of physical activity in our modern world, physical education has become a necessary and basic part of the curriculum at Covington High. The offerings of the Physical Education Department are sufficiently broad to pro- vide for differences in abilities, desires, and the needs of the students. Required of all students in grades 8-10, physical education is set up to include physical exercise, plus a comprehensive study of health and first aid. In grade 10 students are also required to take classroom instruction in driver education. In addition, students enjoy participating in such sports as basket- ball, badminton, and volleyball. The boys add touch football to round out the instructional program. C.H.S. students readily agree that the three years of physi- cal education are both profitable and pleasurable. “WHAT HAVE I DONE NOW?” . . . asks Miss Gwinn, a beginning teacher. Mrs. White, who is well acquainted with C.H.S., assures her that everything will turn out fine. “ARE YOU SURE?” . . . Mr. Carper checks the score with Mr. Putnam, a fellow physical education teacher.

Pegram, Lawrence Jack- son, Theoplous Martin, (not pictured, Mrs. Virginia Hiler, Mrs. Evelyn Ervine, Robert Robinson, and John Bates). THANK YOU to Cafeteria, Custodial Staffs Twice during each school day a lunch bell summons a ravenous crowd of approximately 400 Covington High stu- dents to the cafeteria. At both lunch periods a variety of delicious foods is served by the cafeteria staff. Since the stu- dents thoroughly enjoy getting together over good food, they appreciate the hard work that the cafeteria ladies have put into the preparation of each midday meal. Another group which deserves a standing ovation is the custodial staff of C.H.S. This group is always on the job, tak- ing care of the school grounds and building, keeping everything in good working condition, and sometimes attending to minor emergencies. Performing each job with efficiency, the cus- todians put in many long hours to keep the premises of Covington High neat and clean. 38 Library, Office Staffs Are Indispensable Because of the tremendous amount of clerical work heaped upon Mrs. Humphries and Mrs. Cashwell, there is a great need for an industrious group to lend a helping hand in the office and the supply store. This organization, if it can be called such, helps our secretaries with such duties as typing, dis- tributing no tices and menus, running the ditto machine, sell- ing school supplies, checking absentee slips, and running errands for the administrative personnel and teachers. Another group indispensable to C.H.S. and especially to Miss Payne is the library staff. Stamping library passes for stu- dents and checking books in and out are but a few of their daily chores. Our hats are off to the “unsung heroes” of the office and library staffs. LIBRARY STAFF . . . First Row; Jackie Jones, Ken Rinker, Faye Curry, Debbie Breeden, Berta Baker, Joyce Crawford.

The talents of this group are displayed throughout the year at football games, parades, and other functions. Pictured clockwise are Elizabeth Smith (front), Becky Eevisay, Robbie Fraser, Chipper Arritt, Karen Welch, and Marsha Miller. SARAH BAYNE REIGNS AS HOMECOMING QUEEN The finale of the football year is the crowning of the Homecoming Queen. This year six senior girls were chosen for this regal position. An assembly was held a week before Homecoming, at which time each student voted for the girl of his choice. Half-time at the Lord Botetourt game was punctuated by the lights on the six girls and their escorts. The suspense increased as Bill Zimmerman prepared to announce the winner. This year the students selected Miss Sarah Bayne as the very impressive and charming Homecoming Queen for 1967 . CANDIDATES AND ESCORTS: W. Paxton, G. Reynolds, L. Johnson, K. Welch, S.

HIGHLIGHTS OF FOOTBALL SEASON: PEP RALLIES AND DANCES The annual “Little Brown Jug” Pigskin classic, played with arch-rivals Clifton Forge High School, and the Sadie Hawkins dance, sponsored by the cheerleaders, are the main attractions of the football season. A pre-game skit marks the forthcoming “Little Brown Jug” game. Enthusiasm accented with school spirit enlivens students for this most awaited game of the year. This year an evil Mountie scheme almost thwarted the valiant Cougar effort, but the spirit of a true Cougar triumphed! The Sadie Hawkins characters invaded C.H.S. once again with “Buz” Hoke and Linda Rothwell reigning as “Lib Abner” and “Daisy Mae.” Runners-up were Sarah Bayne and Shawn Grumblatt. All sorts of Dogpatch “critters” arrived and the dance began. A corsage contest was held and the highlight of the evening was the “coronation.” BUZ HOKE, LINDA ROTHWELL, SARAH BAYNE, AND SHAWN GRUMBLATT . . . begin counting their penny votes for the “Lib Abner- Daisy Mae” contest. Football player “Buz” Hoke and cheerleader Linda Rothwell were the winners. Envious runners-up were Sarah Bavne and Shawn Grumblatt 45 Eunice Dressier Suzie Hicks Cheerleaders And “Go, Go, C.H.S.” Ar Very Familiar! Although their activities are not noticed until the first football game in the fall, the cheerleaders begin their preparations much earlier. In fact, one week during the summer several of the cheerleaders attend a camp at Virginia Beach to learn new yells and better presentations. Summer preparations continue, also, with weekly practices until school begins. But this is only the beginning. They must work on their uniforms and originate new cheers. Skits must be written and rules decided upon. The Sadie Hawkins dance is also sponsored annually by the cheerleaders to help replenish their funds. All this, plus much, much more, is accomplished by C.H.S. cheerleaders each year. However, these are the preparations that the students never see. They only see similarly uniformed cheerleaders, performing peppy routines to arouse school spirit. But the student body greatly appreciates their hard work and looks forward each fall to the cheer that means the first football game has started “Go, Go, C.H.S.!” Ann Stettner Sarah Bayne Linda Roth well Jo Ellen Reid Sharmon Neal 46 JV, Varsity Cheerleaders, Morale Boosters “YEA!

MINSTREL CAST OF 1968 1 The lights dim, and everyone anxiously awaits the startling arrival of ■lie endmen. This is the signal that another C.H.S. Minstrel is about to |egin. This year, in keeping with the spirit of the “Roaring Twenties”, the 1 ancers and chorus gave renditions of many fine favorites. I But let us take a glance behind the scenes of this annual performance, rior to the staging, Mr. John Heretick has been practicing for weeks with Te endmen. Even their arrivals are tested and tested to insure a Dectacular entrance. Mrs. Margaret White, having selected the dancers, ■egins immediately forming routines for the Minstrel. The vocal class, bo, has been busy learning the arrangements which Mrs. Nell Fleshman, ijirector, has decided upon. Finally, these groups com- bine, and full dress rehearsals begin. Numbers and routines are practiced faithfully. But, then, before anyone is really certain of himself, Thursday night has arrived, and the cur- tain is going up. But hard work pays off, and once again the C. H.S. Minstrel is unrivaled and incomparable. “I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU” . . . Janie Roberts wows the audience with lier rendition of an old favorite. “IT’S THREE O’CLOCK IN THE MORNING” ... but Larry Johnson and Mike Hardy are asking for one more dance with Becky Levisay and Elizabeth Smith. f ] nr i LINDA ROTHWELL . . . definitely resents Larry Smith’s attention to “Thoroughly Modern Millie”, play- ed by Renee George.

Linda Hendrick tells Mike Sizemore and Steve Vess that she has never seen “old man” Mac Burkholder before. Zelpha Withrow, Sarah Bayne, Judy Heironimus, Lady Astor, and Judy Johnson look on in agreement. “BEHIND-THE-SCENES” CREW ... Mr. Shaw (advisor), Punkey Thomas, Frank Roach, Lynn Hendrick, Evelyn Smith, Candy Kenny (director). Garland McCutchen, Regena McFadden, and Steve Rothwell made the play a success by their efficient work behind the scenes. Once again the Class of ’68 did the impossible. They staged, produced, directed, and starred in the first senior play in many years. Under the leadership of one of the senior sponsors, Mr. Fred Shaw, the seniors made a booming success of the “Teahouse of the August Moon.” A banner stretched across Main Street announced the play to the citizenry. Meanwhile, a small marching band composed of the cast members tramped througli the halls of C.H.S. proclaiming the forthcoming play. There is no doubt that the seniors defied every law of professional showmanship. For example, minor cast members ushered the night of the play. Also, during the course of the production Lady Astor, a goat, made her surprise appearance. At the conclusion of a superb performance, Mr. Shaw was presented a plaque by the cast. 56 Guest Proclaim Top-Notch Senior Play THE CAST OF “THE TEAHOUSE OF THE AUGUST MOON” 57 CANDIDATES AND MANAGERS. . . pose for a minute before tlie demonstrations and speeches begin.

Politics Invade CHS With an air of sincerity, C.H.S. students participated in the annual Student Council elections. During a special assembly, speeches delivered with flourishes of promises and demonstrations enacted by “famous stars” drew the entire student body into the political excitement. However, on the day following the assembly, when students entered the voting booths to exercise their privilege of selecting next year’s Student Council officers, all fun was laid aside. The voting turn-out was excellent, and students were extremely interested in the returns. Once again political gimmicks paid off as the winners smiled and opponents conceded. Newly elected officers for the year 1968-1969 were: President, Richard Ogburn; Vice-president, Greg Reynolds; Secretary, Robin Whiteside, and Treasurer, Joni Benton. 59 Reminiscences From Outer Space Class Day of 1968 was the finale of the seniors’ last year at C.H.S. Light satire, easy-going criticisms, and a comical class will combined to make a very entertaining assembly. Candy Kenny and Shawn Grumblatt, who discussed Shawn’s former high school days, were very capable emcees. Shawn had once attended Covington Higli School in Covington, Virginia, until he was lost in space because of a faulty space rocket. Zany excerpts from each of his four years of high school were presented; then Shawn fell asleep, only to experience heartbreak again as he lost Linda Hendrick at the Junior-Senior Prom.. The traditional happy ending prevailed as Shawn was rescued by former classmate Steve McLaughlin. As Steve informed Shawn about his classmates, many students were surprised at the startling predictions of their futures. All in all. Class Day was a success, dotted with hard work, crazy scenes, and nostalgia. WOULD YOU BELIEVE! . . .

Becky Davidson and Larry Griffith enter “California” through a vividly decorated arch. The Golden Gate Bridge, a romantic view of the ocean, a bubbling fountain, and music by the Gene Thomas Orchestra created the perfect atmosphere for a niglit in “California Dream”- theme of this year’s Junior-Senior Prom. King Neptune and his mermaids took the upperclassmen and their guests on an underwater trip, where four Sardines amused the audience with a dance routine. A group of juniors then entertained the seniors with several songs. Much too soon the evening waned; juniors, seniors, and guests reluctantly left behind “California Dream.” 65 FRANKLIN ROACH Outstanding Academic Student SHIRLEY REDMAN Outstanding Commercial Student 133 Graduates Depart - : . : CLASS OF 1968 . . .

These years have been filled with studies, athletics, and extracurricular activities. As seniors file through the line to receive their diplomas, their thoughts include long hours of homework, themes and projects and memories of dances, class plays all climaxed by the pleasure of achieving their long awaited goal.

STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS . . . Seated: Mr. Heretick; Standing: Eunice Dressier, Secretary; Zelpha Withrow, Vice-president; Franklin Roach, President; Greg Reynolds, Treasurer. The Student Council is the main body of govern- ment in the high school. It consists of representatives elected by the student body. Meetings are called by the president every week during alternating periods. The sponsors who advise and supervise the council are Miss Thomas and Mr. Fitzgerald. After the regular meeting, the Executive Board remains to try such of- fenses as breaking in the cafeteria line and running in the halls. The many accomplishments of the Student Coun- cil this year included a revised punishment system for offenses. This system marked the end of study hall as a punishment. The biggest project of the councU was the Christmas Formal. The members also set up an appearance for C.H.S. on Saturday Session. To insure better relations between students and faculty, a Student Faculty Co-ordinating Committee was established and produced effective results. In addition, the counci l was often called upon to usher for many events at C.H.S. They also aided the Evaluating Committee as guides. The Student Council is a very big part of the total program of Covington High. Their banquet at the closing of each year is well earned. 70 Faculty Co-ordinating Committee ANY VOLUNTEERS? . . .

Sponsored by the Jaycees, the Covington High School Chapter of the Jr. Jaycees was organized at C.H.S. in the early fall of this year. In its first year, the Jr. Jaycees, sponsored by Mr. Thacker, played an active role in many service projects and promoted various national and local causes. For example, a teen dance was held at the Armory, with all proceeds going to the Heart Fund. Besides, members collected for the March of Dimes in downtown Covington. At the local Air Pollution meeting, the club members served as ushers. Literature about cancer was also distributed in area churches. The Chapter was active in other ways also. At basketball games, a play-by-play description was given over the P.A. system. Late in the year, several club members presented a lively radi o program over W.C.F.V., thus bringing the year’s activities to a close. OFFICERS . . .

DEBBIE GILBERT CROWNED MONOGRAM QUEEN The Monogram Club is one of the oldest organizations at C.H.S. It is composed of boys who have earned letters in varsity sports. The club this year participated in many worthwhile projects. Among these activities were the operation of a concession booth at home basketball games and the traditional Valentine Dance. Debbie Gilbert, who was sponsored by Mike Mahaney, was crowned “queen of the ball.” In the late spring the activities of the club were climaxed by the “big feed” at Douthat State Park. Here, head football coach, “Boodie” Albert, assisted by the other coaches, served as able chefs, who soiuehow man- aged “to fill to capacity” all seventy Monogram members and their guests.

Mem- bers must possess good character and leadership abilities as well. Under the supervision of their sponsor, Mrs. Nancy Stuart, the “geniuses” met each month to discuss their common interests. To show his appreciation, each club member presented Miss Gladicia Guaratne, visiting teacher from Ceylon, with an inexpensive gift.

Anyone who is interested in becoming a teacher in later years finds a common goal among the members of the Future Teachers of America Club. This club, sponsored by Mrs. Louise Curfman, has many activities which give a wider understanding of the teaching profession. This year monthly meetings were held at night in the homes of the members. Outside speakers were invited, and several panel discussions were held. This year junior and and senior girls were asked to help with the first-grade testing program. The finale to each year is the banquet, at which time the officers for the next year are installed.

Sponsored by Mrs. Catherine Thomas, the club is one of the most active at Covington High. This year the members of the F.N.A. had a very busy schedule. In the fall several girls visited the University Hospital in Charlottesville; later in the school year, the club members toured the Medical College of Virginia. During Christmas, they visited Alleghany Memorial Hospital and entertained the pa- tients with Christmas carols. Also, money was donated out of the club treasury to the Red Cross to aid in the preparation of Christmas treats for veterans. The F.N.A. girls also assisted in distributing information for the Cancer Drive. The election of officers for the following year cli- maxed the activities of the F.N.A. OFFICERS . . .

JCL, WEARING TOGAS, CAPTURE AURA OF THE PAST Sponsored by the Latin teacher, Miss Lois Drewry, the Junior Classical League strives to create in its members an interest in the language, literature, art, and customs of ancient Greece and Rome. Early in the year the Junior Classical League members attended the state convention held at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. Other activities of the year included a successful bake sale and a Christmas party. The club also participated in Language Club Day, on which all new members had to wear togas. The climax of the year was the traditional banquet held in the spring. Because it was in the Roman mood, all the club members wore togas. OFFICERS . . .

Everyone was kept informed of school activities through the monthly “Pep Sheet” and the “Cougar News” bulletin board. Posters were made for sports events, and team pictures were hung for each sport. Besides, trophies were presented to outstanding players in basketball, baseball, and track. At basketball games the Pep Club welcomed the opposing teams, distributed programs, played the National Anthem, and introduced the players. One of the most outstanding activities of the Pep Club was the initiation of a “Cougar Hall of Fame” to honor famous athletes who have graduated from Covington High School.

The club now boasts a total of 81 members. The meet- ings are conducted in Spanish, with a penny fine for every English word spoken. The club initiated its new members in both formal and informal style. The informal initiation required the boys and girls to dress as Spanish gypsies for an entire day. The informal initiation was entirely different. The old members of the club presented a program consisting of song and dance routines. Then, the new members were blindfolded and made to sit on the floor and eat okra, garbanzos (chick peas) and hot peppers. At the end of the year, a party was given in honor of the senior members.

The C.H.S. chap- ter is one of the twenty-eight charter chapters of the State DECA. D.E. students attend regular classes during the morn- ing and receive on-the-job training in the afternoon. Often these students decide on distributive careers, for they are encour- aged by Mr. Rose, sponsor and coordinator, as well as the managers and personnel of the training agencies. Thi s year Thomas Oliver attended the State DECA Con- vention in Norfolk as one of the contestants. He was first- place winner in the Sales Demonstration in the District Contest. Marian Peters placed third in Public Speaking. Another highlight of the year was the Fall Rally, when all D.E. students from eight high schools gathered at Waynesboro High School for a professional meeting which was followed by a banquet.

With the leadership and support of Miss Jones, the Future Business Leaders of America had a very busy year. Their ac- tivities included regular meetings with guest speakers and other worthwhile activities. The girls also visited National Business College and Virginia Southern College in Roanoke. In December, the club donated to the Veterans Christmas Stocking Fund. Another worth- while project was selling name cards to graduating seniors.

These activities may not require the physical stamina that football or wrestling de- mands, but they are sufficient for young ladies to become members of the Girls’ Monogram Club. For many years girls have been af- forded an opportunity to participate in intramural basketball. This year, un- der the direction of Miss Bobbie Gwinn, approximately thirty-five girls formed a track team, an activity which will also enable young ladies to earn a mono- gram. READY! LET’S GO . . .

The A cappella Choir, a select group of eighteen voices, presented stirring anthems during chapel assemblies and other special occasions. All chorus members, however, participated in the Christmas Assembly. As shown in the Spring Concert, the choir was not limited in their music. Selections ranged from pop and show tunes to both familiar and unfamiliar classics. In addition to these performances, the vocal class staged the Annual Minstrel, a large-scale production featuring solo- ists, dancers, chorus, and endmen. This year eight members attended All-State West C horus at Northside High School in Roanoke. By audition, Dana Vanness, Ricky Claytor, Kathy Lockhart, and Jolene Paulus were selected to be members of the All-State Chorus.

Yearbook Staff— A Combination Of Great Talents There once was an old lady who lived in a shoe; She had so many children she didn’t know what to do. But in my story there is no shoe, And no old lady who doesn’t know what to do. Yes, she has children, 30, really quite a few. All shapes and sizes — a commendable crew. Each year they gather with a job in mind And work very hard to meet a deadline. Surely by now you know whom I mean — The Journalism staff, who are really quite keen. They run around the school in a terrible tizzy. Taking millions of pictures, their actions make you dizzy. They assemble an annual and labor for a prize And call students to purchase one with echoing cries. The staff and Mrs. Whiteside take on a terrible load And follow closely the standards that have a set code. And last, but an important part of the staff. Is Mrs. Curfman, who keeps all the money in tact. My story is now very close to an end. So to you, dear students, this advice the staff sends. Appreciate these people who work so hard To comp ile a yearbook that won’t let you get bored. 96 TOO LATE FOR FIRST PICTURE are (clockwise) Pam Allison, Mrs. Whiteside, Jo Ellen Reid, Frank Roach, Mrs. Curfman, Judy Heironimus, Beverley Thomas, Zelpha Withrow.

STUD EIGHTH GRADERS Eighteen eighth grade boys teamed up to give Covington High School the most devastating football machine it has seen in years. In just four games the eighth graders amassed 188 points while scoring a shut-out victory in each contest. The opposition registered a total of only four first downs against the little Cougars and managed to enter Cougar territory on only two occasions. In the season’s finale, an 80-0 romp over James River, seventeen out of the eighteen boys managed to score for Covington. The Cougar J.V. attack was only slightly less potent. They managed two close victories over the Clifton Forge J.V.’s, a 33-0 smashing victory over James River, and a 6-6 tie with Lord Botetourt. The Alleghany J.V.’s scored two very close victories over the Cougars, and the powerful G.M.S. Colonels gave the Cougars their only convincing defeat. With such teams as the 1967 eighth grade and J.V. teams, the future for C.H.S. football certainly looks bright. 1967 EIGHTH GRADE FOOTBALL STATISTICS CHS 34 Alleghany 0 CHS 55 James River 0 CHS 19 Alleghany 0 CHS 80 James River _ 0 . 188 0 NOT STOPPED YET . . .

In the opening contest the Cougars sur- prised everyone by beating the highly touted Martinsville Bulldogs 15-14 on Ron Cosby’s field goal with only three seconds left on the clock. In their next outing, the Cougars failed to score for the first time in 21 games as a tough Staun- ton team scored a 20-0 victory. The Cougars then fell to dis- trict champion Cave Spring before storming back to record shut-out wins over Northside and Franklin County. Liberty defeated the Cougars 21-7 in a rare Saturday night game, but the fighting gridmen bounced back to smash arch-rival Alleghany County 25-0. The slumping and limping Cougars dropped their final three games with the coveted Little Brown Jug remaining in the Clifton Forge trophy case. It was a long season for the Cougars- one they would just as soon forget. However, with a good JV team and a fantastic group of eighth graders coming up.

The littlest cagers, led by Captain Billy Joe Withrow and Eddie Cottrell and Tom Dickerson, managed a 10-4 won— lost slate and were never beaten by more than seven points. The Cougar J.V.’s were the bright stars of the C.H.S. basketball program. The junior roundballers ended up 14—5, with two of the losses coming while they were hard hit with illness. Excepting those two games, only district champion Cave Spring managed to beat the Cougars. In the district J.V. championship game. Cave Spring took a nine point victory over the little Cougars.

Losing a few games that everyone thought they would win and winning a few that many expected them to lose, the Cougars finished the year with a respectable 10 10 record. The big victories were the 75—56 and 87—59 trouncings of Alleghany, the 62—57 and 83—75 wins over Clifton Forge, and the 99- -73 annihilation of Glenvar, a game in which the Cougars set a scoring record for the school. In tournament play, the cagers eliminated Lord Botetourt in the opening round but fell to district champions Cave Spring in the semi-finals. Coach Bobby Via, in his first season at the helm, not only managed a few victories but also upheld the Cougar tradition of producing gentlemen, as the Cougars once again brought home the Sportsmanship Trophy. In addition to this coveted prize. Cougar Co-captain Larry Griffith received an award from the Covington Virginian, naming him the most sportsmanlike performer in the area. COUGAR CAGERS . . .

The Cougar attack was led by sophomores Greg Pa.xton and Barry Brady and senior Shawn Grumblatt. These three men outscored their opponents 119-17 and had a combined regular season record of 27—5. Other grapplers who posted good records were Fred Pifer (4-4-1), Jerry Steele (7-4-0), and Harold Lambert ( 6 - 6 - 1 ). The combined tournament record of the Cougars was a respectable 18—20, as they scored 28 points in the Roanoke Valley Invitational Tournament (6th place) and four points in the State Tournament. With wrestlers like Pifer, Pa.xton, Brady, and Lambert returning, the Cougars’ mat mark should continue to improve. THE WINNER AND STILL CHAMPION . . .

The 1968 track team, although failing to win a meet, proved impressive and progressed week by week. The Cougars did finish second in a three-team meet and tied for third in a five-team meet at Alleghany County Higli School. The young Cougars (only one senior on the team) were still learning when the short season came to a close, so Coach Hammond has high hopes for the team next year. Highlights of the 1968 season were the long-awaited installation of a track at C.H.S., Steve Jones’ second place 1968 TRACK STATISTICS CHS 33 Allegliany 85 CHS 18 North side 99 CHS 26 Clifton Forge 92 CHS 31 Lord Botetourt 87 CHS 49 James River 76 Rockbridge 20 CHS 28 Alleghany 95 Clifton Forge 65 James River 28 Rockbridge 11 CHS 221 2 Liberty 951 2 CHS 12 Cave Spring 106 CHS 41 Allegliany 77 finish in the discus and third place finish in the shot put at the District Meet, and David Martin’s fourth place finish in the low hurdles at the District Meet.

Cougars Produce Another Strange Baseball Season The 1968 Cougars, piloted by a new coach Pliil Douglas, surprised many by posting a successfid 9 10 won lost record. One of the big reasons for success was junior catcher Gary Keener. In only his second year on the team. Keener, who maintained a .400 plus average through most of the season, finished up hitting .368 and also leading the team with 11 RBI’s and 21 hits. Ct captain Eddie Carter, Mr. “Do Every- thing”, also proved to be one of the top players in the area. Powerhitter Carter smacked 7 doubles, 3 triples, and 2 home runs one a tremendous blast out of Casey Field- making Eddie the third high school player to accomplish such a feat. Carter was also the team’s top pitcher, posting a 1.71 earned run-average and throwing a no-hitter against Eord Botetourt in the play-off game. Along with these super stars, Rick Ogburn, who hit .293, and Greg Reynolds, who hit .278, were important factors in the exciting season. Other players deserving mention are Mike Snead, who came to form in mid-season and then pitched a masterful game in the tourna- ment, and freshman pitcher Roscoe Humphries, who seems to be d estined to be one of the greatest pitchers ever to don the Cougar pin stripes. Every win seemed to be a big one for the Cougars. They started the season by overwhelming a supposedly great Millboro team 15 0. The Cougars then beat district champ Cave Spring 4 -3. The next big win was a 4-3 victory over rival Clifton Forge. Bouncing out of a mid-season slump, the Cougars shut out William Byrd 4 0 and Liberty 3 0 on successive nights to prove themselves at least the second best team in the Blue Ridge District. Showing true championship form, the Cougars demolished Lord Botetourt 6-0. The Cougars, in the tournament, held champion Cave Spring scoreless for seven innings before the Black Knights finally pushed across a run ui the eighth to win the coveted title. This game, a tight pitching duel between Cave Spring’s John Phillips and Co-captain Mike Snead, proved to be a deserving climax to a good season. In reward for their efforts. Cougars Carter, Keener, and Reynolds were named to the First Team All-Area. Carter was later named Most Valuable Player and Athlete of the Year at C.H.S. 118 To District Championship 1968 BASEBALL STATISTICS CHS 15 Millboro 0 CHS 4 Cave Spring 2 CHS 2 Greenbrier Military School 9 CHS 2 Lord Botetourt 6 CHS 4 Clifton Forge 3 CHS 2 William Byrd 7 CHS 1 Liberty 10 CHS 2 Cave Spring 5 CHS 1 Alleghany County 7 CHS 4 William Byrd 0 CHS 3 Liberty 0 CHS 2 Northside 1 CHS 1 Northside 6 CHS 8 Allegliany County 14 CHS 2 Lord Botetourt 7 CHS 3 Clifton Forge 1 CHS 5 Boys’ Home PLAYOFF 4 CHS 6 Lord Botetourt 1 CHS 0 Cave Spring 1 Totals 67 JV BASEBALL STATISTICS 84 CHS 0 Alleghany County 14 CHS 4 Boys’ Home 2 CHS 11 Boys’ Home 4 CHS 5 Alleghany County 7 Totals 20 27 FINE FRESHMAN FORM . . .

J.V. Cougars Break Even In Their First Year A new addition to the baseball program at C.H.S. this year was the Junior Varsity Baseball team, which ended up with an even 2-2 won -lost record. This team provided an opportuni- ty for boys who are not quite ready for Varsity competition to compete on the scholastic level. Since there were few J.V. teams in the immediate area, the little Cougars could schedule only four games. They opened the season with a 14 0 loss to a strong Alleghany team. Next they took two successive wins from Boys’ Home, 4 2 and 114. Even though they showed improvement with each game, the J.V.’s again fell to Alleghany County, but by only a 7—5 margin. Coached by Sanford Carper and led by Gary Munsey, Kenneth Helton, and Larry Smith, the baby Cougars should provide help for the Varsity Squad next season. 122 ALL-AREA . . .

Superlative Underclassmen Honored In selecting the students to be included in the academic superlatives, teachers exercise extreme care. To be so named, the student must certainly have a very higli grade, but, in addition, he must evince an extraordinary facility and interest in the subject and indicate that he has exceeded the standard requirements for the course. When there is more than one possible selection, averages are calculated to three decimal places and class participation, consistency of work, etc., become factors. If no one in a class can really be called outstanding, the teacher simply does not select anyone; therefore, some subjects are not represented. Such capable students as those designated academic super- latives contribute greatly to Covington High.

YEAR 1968 TELLS “DUMMY” . . . Here lies the 1968 Puffs and Patches (masterpiece or mishap?) before final publication. “I FEEL GOOD” . . . During the Student Council campaign, soul singer Ronnie Batten portrays the James Brown style. 178 STORY OF SUCCESS “Success our goal, determination our means,” official motto of Covington Higli School, has been exemplified in many ways. In academics, success has ranged from merely passing a course to receiving a scholarship. Moreover, success has been marked in the various sports, not in the number of contests won, but by the outstanding sportsmanship which the entire school has displayed. The presentation of the District Sportsmanship Trophy to Covington High is evidence of our determination to play the game fair and square. However, C.H.S. students, like all teenagers, probably measure success in terms of the fun they have experienced— plays, parties, dances, banquets, initiations, picnics, etc. The staff of the 1968 Puffs and Patches hope that we too have been successful in capturing and preserving the highlights of a unique school year. 4 “READY, ACTION, ROLL ’EM!” . . . These deserving eighth graders contribute to the success of C.H.S. with their lately acquired “cinematic” skills. 179 “FANG, JUST RC CAPS” . . . Jack (Fang) Burch sorts bottle caps in an attempt to win a free dance sponsored by WCFV. “CLOSE PINS” . . . These clothespins are ever present on the stage curtains - opened or closed. 180 “FASHION ‘VIA’ COVINGTON” . . . Jane Via models her sewing creation in the annual FHA fashion show. Year Of Diversity Both Honors And Fun “YEAH, I KNOW HER” ... A few of our girl watchers delight in reporting the weekend happenings. “SHOTGUN” . . . Sharon Miner has claimed the front seat for the long trip ahead to Girls’ and Boys’ State. David Gaines, Greg Reynolds, and Edith Smith, other representatives, have reluctantly conceded. 181 A Y ear Of Mastery Ends “PICKETT?” . . . Theopolus Martin “picks” his guitar, which is only one of his many talents. He also plays the piano and saxophone, sings, and keeps CHS beautiful. “THE WINNERS ARE!” . . . First row; Sam Fletcher, James Lavender, Tim Parker, Steve Arritt, Mike Vest; Second row: Ricky Dickson, Lewis Hughes, Maurice Jordan, Dana Vanness were first place winners in the intramural wrestling tournament. 182 I “WHERE TO, NOW?” . . . These Seniors need directing not only to their place in line for Commencement, but also to their place in life. “FROM MOTTO TO THEME” . . . Every annual is built around a theme, which, in our case, h as been our school motto. 183 184 ADVERTISING 185 ROOKLIN ' S “Shop Around the Corner For Better Values” THE BLUE ROOM OF REID ' S GRILL Air Conditioned Catering to Breakfast Clubs Special Luncheons Dinner Meetings and Banquets Large or Small Groups FINE FOODS GOOD SERVICE Comfortable Surroundings Large Parking Area Call Mr. Reid Phone 962-0331 Maple Avenue Dial 965-7281 ROBERT L.
