For this reason the staff of the 1946 Admiral has changed its theme from wartime program to preparing for the future in a more peaceful era. The entire world, with its progress stimulated through war and its opportunities broadened, lies before every graduateg but students of today seeking success in tomorrow's world will have to develop mentally, physically, and cooperatively while in high school. This is the point we have'tried to present with the most emphasis. 'I'omorrow's citizens will look back gratefully on their high school Alma Mater with appreciation for the preparation which made possible their individual success. May this volume help to remind each one of the chance offered youth in our American de- mocracy. Wgnwxl .1 Y .5 5 X 1-gull 4 . I I I I X y -Fl ,f if 1 -i i I r 1 V f Y , N I I I !

The bed was unusually comfrotable and I remember lying there looking at a quilt that Mom had put on my bed earlier that evening. The colors were very vivid and strangely familiar, this was my last conscious thought before slipping off into peaceful slumber. There seemed to be a strange mist rising around me and out ofit I could distinguish a blur of color, this was fantastic-was this a dream or had I lost my mind! I recognized the color as being the color of a patch in the quilt. Then the blur began to take a definite shape . . . It . . . was a sweater, a bright yellow and brown sweater. Lemmra' Sleed was the wearer. He was sitting at a big mahogany desk over a large pile of papers, signing the expense accounts of Steed Television Company. The calendar on his desk read 1960. just then his secretary came in . . . well I'll be . . . it was lla Faye ffonex, the quiet little senior girl. Oh, oh, the mist is changing and the picture fades. 'Tis hard to see through so thick a mist, but surely enough another patch of the quilt comes to view. It is a bright red patch. Slowly it is taking the form of a . . . a skirt, a bright red skirt and the wearer is none other than the talented Senior, Bcity llfrzrd. She is in a huge studio, standing by a door on which is a star with her name on it-she must be an actress. Betsy is talking to someone else in the same room. The discussion seems to be over a new play in which Betsy is to star, The play- wright she is talking to is Salgv Lon Taylor, who got her start in Cradock High School. They are both . . . oh, oh, the mist is thickening and the scene vanishes. OF those two I can see no more. Slowly but surely the mist is again rising and this time I see a patch of two colors, maroon and gold. The patch has turned into two strips of ribbon, one of maroon and one of gold. The ribbon .is pinned onto the coat of Cradock High School's new girl athletic teacher, Gazelle llflaore. 1 I-'Inn Hzuv'1.t, the English four teacher and liertflzz l1IH1lL'7', the seventh grade teacher, are doing their part of the school's cheering as they sit next to Gazelle watching Cradock's well coached championship team roll to another victory. The coach is none other than Thomfzr W1'l61zr'lVfzt5o11. The mist came and changed the colors of maroon and gold into a pretty patch of kelly green. A suit that was excellently tailored and worn by the famous designer, Phyllis Kern, was the result of another patch of the quilt. Miss Kern is watching one of her new creations being modeled by a gor- geous model, none other than f7e1zm'ile Nl11l!.t llmrxwl. A multi-colored patch was the next thing for my vision to focus on, but it lasted not long for a sweep of the wind blew away the mist and there revealed to my sight was pictured a luxurious ball with foun- tains of champaigne along the wall and place cards made of ten dollar bills. The host of this 525,000 ball is the famous designer who took over the Lockheed Aircraft Company when his ideas became too advanced for Mr. Lockheed. Most of us would know him as Bill4Brf1e. l l - l n . Sitting on the mink covered sofa in the corner drinking a glass of milk with his wife is Dickie Blanks, the All-American center for the Cleveland Rams. His wife is that beautiful woman who used to be a senior in 'ole Cradock High, llflmjf Elefmor Davis. . Emu' Cmnming.t and Frrzuklin Clark, Mr. Bene's chief Aeronautical Draftsmen,and Chemical Engineers, just walked in a little late, but as they would say, 'fBusmess before pleasure. ' . Budflv Sli!! and his High Hatters, who have just played a two wee'k's run at the Coconut Grove, have started swinging by a new number written by the famous song writer, Flora Lee Z W Z Y Tram.

That renowned bubble dancer, Clzri.r W'c.vtbrook, hasjust come onto the floor with her company of bubbles. At a table near by I can distinguish two familiar faces in Marine uniforms. One is Brigadier General Richard Bruce Nnrkols and the other is P. F. C. Gordon Hmrne. Pvt. Hearne is loading his bean shooter while Gen. Nuckols looks on with a pair of binoculars. Next to appear on the program is Metropolitan Opera's two best singers, 70cm Berlrmn and Rirhard Hon-i.von. Their voices will reach way up into, the 150 foot dome of the building, constructed by two of the world's greatest contractors, f7l7l1N7-Y xlrkelr and Frank I.oyne'. The dome was planned by archi- tectural genius, Thomas Barker. The vision is blurring, the mist is closing in on the luxurious ball. Oh well, I hope they have a good time. Through the soupy mist, a patch of black comes into my mind's eye. The ghostly wind that blows has again blown the mist away and there, standing in a large court room dressed in his black mantle is the Honorable judge, Ilfilliam Smndin. His Honor is discussing something with Frank Tlzompxon, the District Attorney. The case seems to be centered around Bobby llloore, the owner of the Moore Air Freight Lines. Bobby is accused of running into Mrs. Richard DeGold's pet pigeon, while flying around in his jet monocoupe. Mrs. DeGold was known to former Seniors as Ruby 5711170 llfl07XIl7l. Foilh Borrow, owner of the Stink Weed Florist, located on Broadway, was a witness to the fatal slaying. She is being cross-examined by the prosecuting attorney, Thonms Peterson while Donfzlrl Thomlinmn, the Defense Attorney, objects to Peterson's unorthodox way of questioning. The objection being over ruled, Miss Barrow testified that she and the vice-president of the United States were flying around in her helicopter when Bobby Moore ran into Mrs. DeGold's pigeon. Mi.vJ llflzziy 70 Taylor, the first woman vice-president of the U. S., then testified that one of Bobby's jet tubes backfirediand fried the pigeon in midair. Catherine Brown, foreman of the jury, then gave the verdict of . . . darn that mist, how can I find what the verdict is, if the mist is going to cover it up. Anyway, I think horizontal black and white stripes will be very becoming to Bobby. Through the thin veil of mist that remains I can see a long chain ofA N P Stores, the A standing for flgce and the P for Powell. This is the largest drug and grocery store chain in America. Sitting around a table sipping sodas and gossiping are f7can Hnrrir, Dolorer Hughes, Nzznry Smilh, and lllazy Ellen llfnlson, Cradock's domestically inclined ladies. They are all married and contented with the whole idea. Belly Gray would have been there, but she had to stay home with David, jr., who has the whoop- ing cough. What three should walk in on thc gossip party but lllozzrire lVillimn.t, the guy who took Senator Claghorn's place fClaghorn that isj and Elsie Bullork and Daphne Parker, the amazing lipstick modellers who model for the U-Smear-It C0., owned by Virginia Powerr and operated by Marjoltic Rzznyon. Maurice cracked a funny as that 'ole thick mist came sliding to blot out the fortune of one of Cradock's mighty seniors. A deep blue patch of the quilt is the next to come to my memory. As the mist fades, the deep blue patch takes the appearance of an ocean. A mighty steamer is steadily ploughing through the sea and standing on the bridge is the captain, Homer Smith. Up in the celestial dome of this modern steamer is the navigator, Lieutenant Commander George Willirzrzzr. In the radio room,the operator, Henry Watxofi, is sending a message to the press, from the special envoy to England, Lucille Douglzzr. Leaning over the rail talking over good times are five former students of Cradock High. fiudrfv W'illionz.t, the wife ofa prominent business man, is just taking a pleasure trip. Next is Florine Downey and Lloyd Kellam, two well known geologists, who are going to Germany in search of a deposit df Uranium. To play in the world's symphony orchestra is Gene lllzzurk. He is going to Italy for his audition. Going along with him for his health is Senator Boob' Benzlzzra. Standing astern painting the view of the ship's wake and sea gulls flying, is llzzrlers llzgff. Talking over business with him is Frank H:zra't, Manhattan's leading commercial artist. A large puff of smoke from the ship's stack, covers the whole ship and when it is blown away there is nothing left-no ship, nothing but a solid wall of mist. The nightmarish dream rolls my mental imagination to another patch of the quilt. A gray pin- stripe suit is revealed after the mist rises once again. Standing in front of the microphone is the an- nouncer, f7ohnny Ellir. I-Ie is announcing Billy Broillzwoile, the star of the You Ask For It radio show, sponsored by 791171 Aliller and lVlIl?1Qfl7'L'l Cojfajfs beauty salon. The sound effects man is none other than Yoe Bobbin. Sitting in the studio audience are the co-owners of the Globe Bus Line. They are lilac 1WrCotter and Bill Harris. 1-Inn Bidgood and Ellen Ferrell are also sitting out front. They represent parts of the teaching staff of Hogan's Secretarial College. ll-iforrea l-logon, the president was unavoidably detained. As silently and mysteriously as it came, the picture again vanishes under a cover of mist. fIf only I had a fog lightl. i ' A patch of silver is the next thing to catch my attention, the silver being the shining fuselage of a huge sky clipper sailing across the sky. Inside are four former seniors ofthe class of 216. Lzzlrelle Sw-ml is a nurse traveling to East Asia to help control an epidemic there. Passing through the plane giving out oxygen pills is lllafy Lifcnfielzl, the chief stewardess, while her two assistants, Katherine Taller and Billie W'hiteh11r.r! adjust the seats of the passengers. A cloud passes and turns the scene into another patch. This patch is a beautiful color of forest green and as the mist rises it is clear that the color is justified for there before me lies a huge forest. Riding through the forest, whistling a song are three forest rangers who are quite happy to be lVIother Nature's caretakers. Pat Shea, Owen llfright and Henry Grin are the nature-loving rangers. XVhen the mist had settled in again, I knew that there was only one more senior left, Terry llfhife. Just as the mist was beginning to rise I could vaguely see myself in the distant future through the cover of mist, but too late, just then the alarm sounded and awakened me from my dream. Sitting up in bed I thought of how my trouble of writing the prophecy had been solved, so I got up quickly and wrote it down before the happenings had slipped my mind. So here it is for you to read.

W' lls Auuaer Wu.1.1AMs Class History T was in the gay month of September I9 hundred and 4-2, a calm and peaceful autumn day, radiant with the sunshine of hope, cheer, andjoyous promise, that the good ship Freshman Class stood at the wharf of a new school year full of adventure. VVe boarded this stately old vessel as inexperienced seamen. VVe were assured of a successful voyage, for our ship was piloted by Mrs. Frances Rowe, our capable commander, William Braithwaite and his assistant, Terry VVhite, and to keep our records and finances in order, Boatswains Audrey Vililliams and Mary Eleanor Davis. We had left the shore of Freshmen routine and were sailing peaceably when we were attacked by pirates fSeniorsjg we were robbed of our pleasures and suffered severely from persecution. We endured this with perseverence. We had gained both knowledge and experience and were happy to discover that we fthat is most of usj had been brought fortunately to the U. S. S. Sophomore. This ship was navigated by a crew of Captain Tommy Vilatson, Executive Ofiicer Robert Corley, Yeoman Audrey Williams, and Paymaster Hunter Booth. There were a few cases of seasickness and various ones were tempted to throw up Algebra and Geometry, and other unfavorable dishes and toss some of their best belongings overboard at times ofrough sea, but our stewardess, Miss Aitken, assured us calmly but firmly that we would only have to consume these indigestibles. Ah yes, we had sailed two seas and received checks and identification from the Purser and were immediately transferred to the U. S. S. Junior. Wie were important at last for now we had the duty of giving a prom to honor our superiors, the Seniors. The crew picked Thomas Watson as President, Dickie Blanks, Vice-Presidentg Audrey Williams, Secretary, and Mary Ellen Watson, Treasurer, to lead us through this ordeal. Hard work, a novelty to us, soon was about to get the better of us, but our diligent sponsor, Miss Mary Evans Sides, would spur us on with threats of Bread and VVater and 1'll put you in irons. VVith the Junior- Senior Prom over and only small storms ahead, such as exams, we finished our third cruise. It had been an eventful voyage. We had sailed three seas and as able bodied seamen we felt victorious for at last we were ready to tread the decks of the U. S. S. Senior. We were young and socially inclined, so it did not take us long to become acquainted with our fellow passengers. We felt very much at home with our new and experienced Captains Byrd and Richardson and all our fears of shipwreck were en- tirely wiped away in the assurance that so able a staff of officers had us in their charge-fully fiedged Admiral Richard E. Blanks and Vice-Admiral Robert Corley. Phyllis Kern, with Compasses, sextant and chronometer in hand, accepted the position of giving us the weather conditions and our bearings and keeping valuable statistics. With Mary Ellen Watson, Second Lieutenant, the ship's pay roll was kept in satisfactory condition. CDon't let me kid you, she didn't pay us, we paid her.D It was our pleasure to witness many delightful occasions such as Supreme Court. We had crossed the equator and Old Neptune had inspired us to celebrate the event. CThe poor Freshmen caught the inspiration.J Then came Baby Day when we brushed the salt from our shoulders and acted as mere boots. VVe tied up May sixteenth and went ashore long enough to observe the Senior Banquet. We barely ate fjokej for we had indulged in the thoughts of things to come. With a bit of persuasion we developed cannibalistic appetites. We weighed anchor and again left shore for a few days of quiet cruising on navigable waters. Then May thirty-first we slowed down to five knots for Class Night. Again we left shore only to come back to the Baccalaureate Sermon. June fourth was here at last. it had been a successful voyage and we had been careful to accumulate many souvenirs from every port, striving however to guard against excess baggage, and of taking unto ourselves anything which would not be of service to us on the yet greater Voyage of Real Life upon which we are this day to embark. The tides of our averages have continuted to ebb and fiowg the waves of mathmatical problems have kept up their ceaseless motion and commotiong the billows of examination questions have sometimes tried their worst to overwhelm us, but none of them has succeeded. Now we look at the larger, more majestic ocean ahead and feel that our experience has fitted us to withstand every storm, and weather opposing force with no fear of disaster, saying with Byron Roll on, thou deep and dark blue ocean, roll! Ten thousand fieets sweep over thee in va1n! . But not in vain for the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Forty-Six. The Voyage of High School Life is at an end, the Voyage of Real Life is just now and here at its triumphant Commencement!

After the prom, our year seemed to end, but we sincerely welcomed Mrs. Davis back from an absence and cordially wished happiness to all those teachers who were married during our Junior year.

Again this year we planned our semi-formal with the Freshman Class. Together we chose our colors, which were green and white. Vile used the theme of St. Patrick's day and a center piece for the ceiling which was a large green sham- rock. This year's dance proved to be a very successful venture. Doug Parker and his orchestra provided our music. During intermission Mr. Aitken put on a floor show for our entertainment, which was enjoyed by all who attended.

H ISTGRY The Freshman Class of 1945-46 held its first meeting, with the purpose of electing its officers. In the meetings which followed they devoted their time to planning the Fresh- men-Sophomore dance, which, when held on March 15, was a great success.

The Admirals played good ball with one or two exceptions. The Admirals played a wonderful game against Suffolk and downed the Red Raiders 41-25. As a whole the team did very well and made a good average for the experience and the height that they had. While playing Norview the Admirals gave the Class B champions a scare when the latter just did manage a win. The Admirals had a very successful season despite what the records show.

The season's opening game with Norview gave us our hrst victory which inspired the team and instilled confidence in each individualg this lasting throughout the season. Four games were played before the Christmas holidaysg the Cradock team winning three and tieing one. After the holidays the girls continued their victories by defeating.SulTolk whose team had not been defeated in three basketball seasons, also by winning over South Norlolk whose team had won 16 consecutive games, and by defeating Churchland for the tenth consecutive year. We, the team of '45-'-16, feel that our splendid record of 16 victories, 3 losses, and 1 tie would not have been possible without the guidance of our friend and coach, Miss Ehzabeth Lewis. To those of the graduating class of '46-Captain Betty Gray, Marree Hogan, Bertha Hunter, Gazelle Moore, Audrey Williams, -lean Harris, and manager Mary Ellen Wlatson, may we extend our appreication for their accomplishments and wish for them every success in the future. t SCHEDULE WZ' They Dec. ..,, ,,..
