Culpeper County High School - Colonnade Yearbook (Culpeper, VA)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1951 volume:

Culpeper Town County Library Culpeper, Virginia Presented by Janet Bolen Gorman from Tiie Book Collection or Mary George Bolen 1901 - 19£Q f Since this is the first year Culpeper County High School has had a school seal for literary use, the staff of the 1951 Colonnade thought it worthwhile to explain its meaning. The vocational symbol exemplifies the well- developed vocational field open to the students of CHS. This emblem drawn upon a scroll, which represents scholarship, shows that these two go hand in hand. An- other active part of high school life, athletics, is denoted by the winged foot, a sign of physical prowess and good sportsmanship. Citizenship, indicated by a torch, is placed behind and above the first three symbols; ,for tiaining good citizens is the true purpose of education. Printed above the seal is the Latin motto, Carpe diem, translated “Grasp the opportunity.” These words have a real meaning for those students who take their work seriously. Keith McNeer designed the seal. fill ■■■■ ini am mm llll llll SHI |;;il • | «ii iiii liii ;:ij mm aaat ■■■• i««« i ii mi mi mi mi Jacquelyn Kilby Editor Patricia Scott Business Manager Miss Mary George Bolen Adviser The 1951 Published By The Students Of I Colonnade Culpeper County High School, Culpeper, Virginia CHS Trains Student For World Citizen hip The 1951 Colonnade presents as its theme, Citizenship. How broad a meaning the word has today! It implies citizenship in a com- munity; citizenship in a country; yes, even citizenship in the world. What duties and privileges that citizenship entails! Recognizing each student as a citizen, the Colonnade presents him as such — a citizen of yesterday as presented on the front inside cover; a citizen of tomorrow as pictured on the back inside cover; a citizen of today as portrayed on the pages within. His work with teachers, classmates, and members of the community, his participation in various school activities, his development under the school’s enlarged curriculum — all aid the CHS student in becoming a cosmopoli- tan, well-rounded citizen. That these enlightened citizens may help to establish “One World, built on love and peace” is the fervent wish of the members of the Colonnade staff!

The general course pre- pares a student for a large number of vocations, whereas the commercial course specializes in the secretarial field. Students preparing to enter college upon graduation take the college prepara- tory course. At the library desk Barbara Carver checks out a book to William Hedrick. Stanley Hoffman shoots a basket in a physical education class while Thomas Jenkins, left, and Lee Hitt, right, wait for the ball. On the following pages are given some of the departments in CHS. Courses not explained in this section are journalism, art, music, distribu- tive education, diversified occupations, consumer education, and physical education. The gym- nasium provides excellent facilities for athletics and social functions. The library furnishes in- formation through its wide variety of books, magazines, films, and other resources. -= j{ 12 four English Credits Required for Graduation All students are required to take four years of English for graduation. Each English class provides opportunities for reading, writing, speaking, and listening. All of these activities are based on problems set up in a course of study for each year of high school. The problems for the first two years are of a personal nature while those of the last two years are based on American and English literature, respectively. Throughout the English curriculum the correct use of the spoken and written word is stressed to prepare stu- dents for the future. Looking at their examination papers as Miss Gertrude Lewis goes over them are some members of her English II class, left to right: Barbara Hawkins, Delores Aylor, Margaret Quaintance, Mary Tinsley, Barbara Miller, and Jo Anne Trice. Patricia Scott, Violet Smith, and Jean Hensley take notes on the Constitution of Virginia as Mr. Floyd T. Binns explains the legislature to the Civics IV ciass. Junior Citizens Study Social Problems Students may take world history ' , a study ' of man from ancient time to the present, during any one of the last four y’ears of high school. When they become juniors, they are required to take United States history. This traces the de- velopment of the United States from its first settlement to its present position as a great world power. The senior social studies class, which is also required, devotes the first semester to a study of the United States government and the second to social problems of youth. Wide Field Open To Mathematics Enthusiasts The Mathematics Department offers many choices in the realm of its field. Two years of mathematics are required of all students before graduation. For those taking the general and business courses, general and business mathe- matics are offered. Basic mathematics in the twelfth year drills on fundamentals. For those preparing for college, the deparcment presents two years of algebra, a year of plane geometry, and a half year each of solid geometry and trigonometry. Looking on as Mrs. Gordon Witt hands out math papers are. left to right: Otis Leake, Roger Baumgardner, Annette Myers, Rozelle Young, and Cora By ram. In Miss Virginia Lewis’s biology class Constance Coiner, Eleanor Rinker, and Jerome Jenkins dissect a frog. Scientists Experiment In The Science Department, headed by Miss Virginia Lewis, is of the highest quality. General science is required of every student, and biology, chemistry, and physics are of- fered to any student desiring them. Modern Laboratory The purpose of this department is to present to all those taking science a true picture of the universe, conditions contributing to the students ' environment, and factors which all can use to live a richer life. One Ancient, One Modern Language Taught To prepare the student for life in this modern world, two years of Spanish and three years of Latin are offered. To the student who selects these courses goes the best foundation and knowledge of principles of these languages. Both the first and second year Spanish clubs have organized and are carrying out many projects. The second year Latin class has organized an Olympic Council. From the activi- ties of these two clubs, the students are shown more about the daily life of people in the countries represented by these languages. Standing left to right are Charles Covell, Jeane Coffey, Page Borst, Miss Laura Thornhill, Mescal Dugan, and Nancy Keth as they wait to go to take a three hour exam at the Latin Tournament held annually in Charlottesville. Carrie Payne and Anne Carder work with two of the new machines, the mimeoscope and the mimeograph, respectively, during their office practice class. Commercial Students Use The Commercial Department offers many opportunities for students to prepare for positions in the business world. From the day a student begins the business course in the freshman year, he is taught an understanding of business procedures and how to prepare for a position not only as a stenographer or typist, but as a bookkeeper or small business manager. There are also many clerical jobs for which be Modern Equipment can equip himself. The courses offered in the Commercial Department are taken by students pursuing the college preparatory course as well as those who are preparing to enter the business world. These students receive a general knowledge of business to facilitate their work in college and afterwards. Tomorrow ' s Homemakers Prepare For Future The Home Economics Department is one of the beauty spots of CHS as well as a center of learning. Girls who take home economics are taught sewing, cooking, house- keeping. and all the other basic principles that are necessary for a good homemaker to know. The wish of Mrs. Thomas Sweet, head of this department, is to turn out girls capable of bearing the name “good homemakers of America.’ Watching the film. “Sharing Work at Home,’’ are Mrs. Thomas Sweet’s Home Ec II class: Priscilla Gingrich, Dorothy Corbin, Ethel Jenkins, Mary Frazier, Betty Richards, Annie Dodson, and Thelda Sutphin. Working with a drill press in the shop building are Lawrence Jenkins and Kenneth Taylor who are in the agriculture shop class. The purpose of the V’ocational Agriculture Department is to better prepare those who desire to make farming their vocation and build their future O” the soil. Agriculture is most important because of the dependence of all living beings on the soil. The projects taught the boys by Mr. R. R. Tolbert and Mr. S. C. Aylor, teachers in the depart- ment, are numerous and worthy of strict attention because each is a goal toward their future. 1 5 jC ' Eighth Graders Begin High School Life The eighth grade, as now organized, is an integral part of the high school and a prerequis- ite for any of the three courses offered in the last four years of high school. It was planned to help the pupil make the transition from ele- mentary school to high school without loss of time and effort, to strengthen and extend the skills, to enable the pupil to explore his interests and abilities by studying short courses in art, agriculture, general business, industrial art, home economics, and music. In addition, the pupil has time to broaden his work in the next four years. While Barbara Faulkner, Mary Cubbage and Betty Cook take notes, Mr. Colie Rock instructs his eighth grade English Class on the use of nouns and pronouns. A full year of study in English and social studies and one half year each of science and mathematics carry forward the Core Curriculum set up in the high school. The pupil adjusts him- self to departmental work and learns a great deal more about himself. The graduating class of 1951 is the first class which has enjoyed the advantages of the broad- ened program of studies made possible by the inauguration of the eighth grade program in 1946. 1 7 )§►- mr School Citizens Frequent School Scenes 1. The American flag, given by the VFW in 1949, is raised and lowered every school day unless the weather prohibits. In the picture, W. Tut- v iler and J. Backe are in the process of raising the flag. 2. Each morning the front columns of Culpeper County High School bid welcome to the students who pass under their arch. At lunch time it shelters the students as they laugh and talk together, and as the 3:15 bell rings, the columns give their per- sonal farewell to each student. 3 The shop building behind the high school building is the domicile of the agriculture and agriculture shop classes. Completely modern equipment makes it fun for the students to learn about farming and farm implements. The D. 0. class also meets in this building. 4. The cafeteria, under the direction of Mrs. Clyde Wilson, serves an aver- age of 320 students and teachers each day. Waiting in line as, left to right, Mrs. W. Thompson, Mrs. C. Wilson, and K. Jenkins serve are W. Pritt, M. Brown, V. Myers, L. Hitt. The federal government furnishes a num- ber of articles of food, such as pota- toes, turkeys, and canned fruit. The lunch for 20 cents includes a bottle of milk. 5. The candy booth gets active stu- dent patronage because it is run by the Girls’ Monogram Club, which uses the proceeds for uniforms, etc., of the Girls’ Athletic Association, and because it stocks the things CHSers want and need: candy, soft drinks, ice cream, and school sup- plies of paper and pencils. Eating and waiting in line for eats are, left to right, W. Settle, K. Taylor, C. Clatterbuck, A. Carroll, J. Hunt, G. Bledsoe, K. Gibbs. 6. The garage supplies gas and oil to the buses from all county schools and sees that they are safe for their lively cargo. In the picture a typical bus is shown behind two workers, Mr. A. Estes, left, and Mr. J. Thomp- . P j J ' Y ( ■ - son. 7. The football bleachers seating ap- proximately 1300 people were filled to capacity at each football game even when the rain beat down upon the spectators and players. The P-TA sold hot dogs, candy, soft drinks, and coffee. Chapter from Class To Class Citizens Grow In Stature, Knowledge Left to right: A. Turner, D. Crane, R. Loy, W. Bledsoe, K. Button, Mr. F. Binns: Class of ' 51 Climbs to Maturity Step by Step Robert Loy President William Bledsoe Treasurer Daniel Crane Vice-President Elmer James Treasurer Audrey Turner Secretary Kathleen Button Reporter Mr. Floyd T. Binns Sponsor As the senior class of 1951 marched down the aisle for the last time, they carried with them happy memories of their high school days — memo- ries beginning with the first and largest eighth grade class for many years. It hardly seemed possible that the dignified seniors of today could have been the giggling creatures residing in the homerooms of Mrs. J. W. Ross and Misses Emily Carper, Jean DeShazo, and Martha Millard. Bayne Bentley led this large class. What a novelty it was for them to sec a different teacher with the ringing of each bell! Now they felt as if they were an actual growing part of CHS. The freshman year was ushered in with work, football games, and the beginnings of first ro- mances. Headed by Everette Powell, the fresh- man family w r as stationed in Misses Rebecca Chappell’s and Nancy Yates’, Mrs. Gordon B. Witt’s, and Mr. A. T. Howard’s homerooms. Time was moving fast and the freshmen be- came sophomores, led again by Everette Powell. This year Misses Rebecca Chappell, Virginia Lewis, and Martha Warriner watched over the mischievous group. The school was beginning to accept the ambitious class into its clubs and other activities. As they walked into the new school, the real- ization of being juniors stole over those occupy- ing the homerooms of Mrs. J. A. B. Davies, and Misses Gertrude Lewis and Laura Thornhill. David Guinn was elected president. The class was accepting responsibilities such as holding office and trying to make the Junior-Senior Prom one to be remembered. For some reason the idea that pleasure and work do not mix became very obvious. Finally, the dignified seniors proudly took their places at the front of the student body. The shepherds of the fold were Miss Jean Ferguson, Mrs. William Barber, and Mr. Floyd Binns. For the last time the class elected its leaders. Robert Loy was honored with the presidency. For the last time they watched the basketball games and participated in other activities of the school. Plans for senior play and graduation made the seniors realize the end was near. Then came the piom. “Thank you, juniors; it was swell,” said the seniors. Commencement was here, and the seniors proudly walked out of the doors of CHS with diplomas in their hands and tears in their eyes and realized they were no longer seniors but citizens of their world.

Lew: In order to control the vast school mechanism, there was set up the Student Cooperative Asso- ciation within the school. Every student be- longed to this organization and in order to further its work representatives from each homeroom and each school club formed the S. C. A. council. The S. C. A. was a service organization, and the students took their problems to its meetings. If these problems concerned the whole student body, suggestions for action were recommended to the principal for approval. President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Adviser The objectives were centered around school improvement, such as becoming a banner S. C. A., holding educational assembly programs, improv- ing attendance as well as school spirit, partici- pating in school government, and developing leadership. Students were given opportunities to engage in school recreation and to share in nation-wide drives such as the Red Cross. The council wished to instill within the pupils a de- sire to leave the school surroundings more beau- tiful and cleaner than they were in the beginning. -■� ]{ 4-4 To aid the service there were seven commit- tees formed of students each with a faculty ad- viser. The Health and Welfare Committee, headed by Barbara Sophia, assisted with clinics and supervised sanitation activities, packed Christmas baskets, provided for a first aid room, and promoted the five point drive. Chairman Robert Button and his Clean-Up Committee, with the help of a representative from each home room, kept the grounds free of paper and ether trash. Under the direction of Margaret James, the Bulletin Board Committee maintained an attractive and informative display before the students at all times. The work was done by the different clubs and classes but supervised by the committee. To encourage saving, Ann Graves and her group sold bonds and stamps to the students each Wednesday at lunch time. The Recreation Committee greatly reduced the num- ber of people in the halls by allowing participa- tion in athletics at lunch time. Barry Hounshell was chairman of this group. The Monitors’ Committee was organized in order that students might be reminded of their manners in school and the school rules. Scott Harlow was made chairman of this committee by the vote of the student council, and the members were chosen by the executive committee. Moni- tors were picked from any class on the merits of ability to do a good job. The Auditorium Committee was led by Robert Coates under the direction of Mr. A. T. Howard. The members of this organization were boys who acted as ushers during the assemblies. This committee kept the auditorium in order and led the seniors in. The Student Council was also engaged in ether activities. After each council meeting a written report was sent to each homeroom. The entire body voted on the best assembly program each semester, and the winner of this contest was given special recognition from the student council. Thus, the Student Cooperative Association helped control the many activities and organiza- tions of CHS for the school year 1950-51. 1. S. C. A. Officers and Adviser, left to right: J. Kilby, Miss V.

Colonnade Keeps Reeor •Jacquelyn Kilby Patricia Scott Miss Mary George B Mrs. William Barber Miss Mary Matta The 1950-51 Colonnade Staff work got under way at its very first meeting. The advertising manager planned a campaign, and ad solicitors spent the morning of October 18 soliciting local business firms. There was no subscription cam- paign because the new activity ticket plan in- cluded the yearbook subscription, boosting the Colonnade circulation from the usual 350 to 500. After a few false starts, due to bad weather, the individual and group pictures were taken. Several “fortunate” staff members were excused from classes on these days to assist the photographer. Then, suddenly, came the news that the dead- line was February 1, much earlier than had been expected! Staff members began collecting all the material that was still needed. The race 1 for School Citizens Editor-in-Chief Business Manager Adviser [ Assistant Advisers J with the deadline was on! The staff worked overtime, and the library became the busiest room in CHS. The members felt that the two and a half day sleet holiday was the greatest boon they received during the year. Thanks to it, the Colonnade was off to press on time! Then the first draft came back, and proof readers had a deadline to meet. Finally, the staff sent its brainchild to the publishers for the last time and back came the 1951 Colonnade! Then there was time for the staff to catch its breath and to send representatives to SIPA in Lexington. In addition to the adviser and the 1951 editor, delegates were chosen from mem- bers of next year’s staff, so that they might realize their responsibilities and know how to begin. Each delegate regarded the honor of - i{ 46 }[ •=- being chosen a challenge to publish the best Colonnade ever! The staff had only one thought as the year closed — all the “sweat, toil, and tears” had not been in vain if the 1951 Colonnade in years to come would keep alive the friendships, experi- ences, and spirit of the 1950-51 school year.

Pepergram Campaigns for School Citizenship Mary Miller Editor-in-Chief M .ry Button Business Manager Miss Gertrude D. Lewis Adviser The staff of the Pepergram, Culpeper County High School’s faithful newspaper, went scurry- ing about this year to get for its public “all the news that’s fit for print.” Ably led by Mary Miller, editor-in-chief, the budding journalists get an issue off to press every three weeks, in- cluding a special Christmas edition. Funds for this were made possible through the sale of ads and the money allotted to the Pepergram from the purchase of school activity tickets. Each issue of the Pepergram had to its credit columns featuring styles, humor, sports, arid school personalities. Student-interest news ar- ticles and athletic coverage were also taken care of by the eager-to -please staff. The Pepergram especially stressed good citizenship this year, and did much to promote appreciation of Ameri- can democracy. Every edition of the paper represented hours of digging up news, writing copy, re-writing copy, proof reading, drawing up the dummy, addressing the papers, and, at last, delivering them. As they did the final work on each issue, the staff members had two thoughts in mind : “Another issue completed!” “What’s the dead- line for the next one?” The Pepergram entered the Virginia High School League, National Scholastic Press Asso- ciation, and Southern Interscholastic Press As- sociation contests. The outcomes of these proved that the work had not been in vain. Represen- tatives attended the S.I.P.A. meeting in Lexing- ton in the spring and were seen displaying dazzling smiles after receiving the Peper gram ' s journalistic rating. All the minor trials and tribulations which the staff suffered during the year seemed to have paid off in the end. To be sure, there were times when the news was rather scarce and the ads came in a little slowly; but as June drew near, Culpeper High realized more and more how for- tunate it was to have the Pepergram as its paper. - 48 } - EDITORIAL STAFF Margaret Glenn i Constance Coiner j Jacquelyn Kilby Cynthia Kent Assistant Editors Neivs Editors Lois Doyle Patricia Scott James Rosson Charles Covell J Earl Aylor ( Sandra Hunt Kathleen Button ] Frances Kelly J Ellen Gaines t Margaret Dyer Mary Robeson Jeane Coffey , Beverly Carpenter j Keith McNeer Kathleen Yancey Carole Reynolds Ann Griffin Edith Cunningham Maxine Kilby Betty Norris Doris Butler Mescal Dugan Elinor Chilton James Cothran Nancy Jeffries Feature Editor Sports Editors Exchange Editors Feature Writers Fashion Editors Staff Artist Reporters BUSINESS STAFF John Guinn Ellen Hossley Letitia Yancey Mary Tinsley Eleanor Rinker Barbara Hawkins Sandra Kerrick Violet Smith Ada Bunch Robert Dwyer Louise Hadder John Yowell Advertising Manager ..

Tri-Hi-Y Places Emphasis on Clean Living Ann Graves President Helen Dinkel Secretary Helen Myers Vice-President Eleanor Hitt Treasurer Mrs. John J. Davies Mrs. Elmer R. Trainum The girls of the 1950-51 Tri-Hi-Y Club in- ducted their new members and installed their officers at an impressive candlelight ceremony in October. The club then swung into their cam- paign for promoting desirable citizenship char- acteristics in the student body. The highlight in the Tri-Hi-Y year was the District Conference at which both Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y were hosts. Mr. William E. Hansen, State Y.M.C.A. Executive Secretary, worked behind the scenes at the convention, but he was out front in planning for it when he was here earlier to conduct a workshop. A little girl was adopted by the club and she received food baskets, clothes, and toys on all holidays. In the fall, the girls formed a girls’ football | Advisers team, and after many bumps and bruises, felt experienced enough to sponsor an all-girl foot- ball game. Combined with the game was a Tri- Hi-Y sponsored Halloween parade. P.S. Tri- Hi-Y won over the Independents! The much awaited Sweetheart Cotillion was given in February, thanks to the combined ef- forts of the Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y. Hearts were a-flutter; a king and queen were crowned; and sentimental memories were tucked away. Other activities included attending church as a body every third Sunday, holding religious as- semblies every other month, placing inspiring mottoes on bulletin boards, and sending repre- sentatives to Tri-Hi-Y gatherings. The club had a satisfying year, finding many new ways of doing their best to lead the way as good citizens. 50 •- Brown Elected President of District Hi-Y The Hi-Y was the brother organization of the Tri-Hi-Y. Its first meeting was held in Septem- ber when the boys discussed the aims and goals stated in the Hi-Y manual as well as the indi- vidual problems of the club. The Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y were hosts at the district club meeting. An honor was bestowed on Culpeper when Estil Brown, of the CHS or- ganization, was elected district president. The boys of the club chose five Christian lay- men of this community to serve as an advisory committee for the club. Then, in order to pub- licize the work of the Hi-Y club, they displayed the activities and aims of their organization on a bulletin board. The Hi-Y presented a radio program over the local radio station on November 13, and also sponsored religious assemblies, one every two months. The boys were co-sponsors of the Sweet- heart Cotillion in February and “outdid them- selves trying to make it the best ever.” The club displayed posters over the gym- nasium door, held a father-son banquet, and took charge of the World Day of Prayer program. At the end of the year, the boys decided that the work had been worth the effort, for they had fulfilled their aims. Estil Brown Edgar Sims Paul McNeer James Moore Mr. Colie E.

Son£ Birds Compete in State Music Festival Thomas Hawkins Margaret Quaintance Margaret James Barbara Southworth Jacquelyn Kilby Mr. Leslie Walden President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Librarian Accompanist Director With their sights set on a high rating in the State Music Festival, the members of the Glee Club with the help and ideas of their new direc- tor, Mr. Leslie Walden, practiced each Wednes- day during activity period. On October 6, the senior warblers performed at the District H Teachers’ meeting, singing “Praise For Peace.” The Music Department first appeared before the student body in an assembly, and later pre- sented a Christmas Concert to the entire com- munity. This concert featured selections by the Glee Club, the Junior Glee Club, the Choral Music Class, and the Band, which included Christ- mas music, popular songs, and others. Songs by the Glee Club were “Now Let Every Tongue Adore Thee,” from the cantata, “Sleepers Awake,” by Bach, and “It Came Upon A Mid- night Clear,” words and music by Edwin H. Sears and Richard S. Willes, respectively. The proceeds from this concert were used for the purchasing of music for the choral groups and instruments for the band. -«f 52 After the Christmas Concert there was no resting for the warblers. They continued to practice each Wednesday during activity period, for they determined to be prepared for the Music Festival at Fairfax in April. Finally, April came, bringing the big day for the Music De- partment. They packed up and went scooting off to Fairfax with all the best wishes for good luck from CHS. The songs which the Glee Club sang were the Scotch air, “Cornin’ Thro’ The Rye,” by Robert Burns, and the Bach selection, “Now Let Every Tongue Adore Thee,” which they had sung in the Christmas Concert. Spring was definitely here, and it was time for the first annual Spring Concert. At this presentation the senior songbirds resang the Scotch air, “Cornin’ Thro’ The Rye,” and intro- duced to the audience, composed of parents, stu- dents, teachers, and other music lovers of the neighboring towns and villages, two new songs, “One World,” and “Abram Brown.” The Glee Club finished the school year of ’50-’51 by serenading the seniors and many peo- ple from Culpeper and the adjoining communi- ties at the Baccalaureate Sermon and the 1951 Commencement Exercises.

Junior Songsters Keve David Haught Kathleen Yancey Edith Cunningham Mr. Leslie Walden The CHS Junior Glee Club was composed of students in the eighth and ninth grades. The main purpose of the club was to prepare its members for the more difficult work of the Glee Club. The club’s first important appearance was at the District H Teachers’ meeting where they sang with the Glee Club. Their next activity was taking part in the Christmas Concert which was given by the Music Department. The club sang “The Bell Song” and “Silent Night” as its part in the program. The songsters met every Monday in the school gymnasium. New songs were practiced, and l Hidden Talent President Secretary-Treasurer Accompanist Director Mr. Leslie Walden, director, explained desirable singing qualities. The Junior Glee Club also took part in the Spring Concert. The concert was produced by the joint efforts of the entire Music Department. It was the last of their large productions for the year. However, their activities for the year were not yet over. They had an active part in the commencement ceremonies and they also sang at the annual sermon for the seniors. The Junior Glee Club took part in several school assemblies during the year and advanced half its members to the senior club at the end of the school year. - { 54 Growing Band Acquires New Music Director The 1950-51 band made its debut at an as- sembly program in the fall. Membership had increased, and new instruments were available. But the budding musicians decided they needed even more instruments in order to perform prop- erly. Therefore, the band sponsored the annual magazine subscription campaign and purchased more equipment. With these reinforcements they were able to attend all football games where they gave the team rousing support. The band even followed the team to Fredericksburg. They got then- share of parades, too, once before the Glen Allen game and again at Christmas. The band joined forces with the Music De- partment in presenting a concert at Christmas. In February, the members packed their instru- ments and traveled to the Alexandria Competi- tion Festival. Cynthia Kent and Christopher Geest were chosen to represent the school in the All-State Band, which met in Arlington, Febru- ary 11. The CHS band initiated the Culpeper County March of Dimes campaign in January. Also they were featured in the Music Department’s Spring Concert. Made up of students who took band as a class and others who played in it as an activity, the band met every Thursday and prepared several assembly programs which were given throughout the year. Although the elements were sometimes against them and other obstacles arose, “the band played on.” Douglas Noakes President Doris Martin Secretary-Treasurer Mr. Leslie Walden .

Senior Dramatists Present “Haunted Chair” Roy Carroll President Ann Graves Vice-President Mildred Weaver Paul McNeer Mrs. Gordon Witt Presenting “The Haunted Chair,” a three act mystery-comedy, March 2, was the major ac- tivity of the year for the Dramatic Club. Mrs. Gordon Witt, club adviser, directed the play, and the cast of characters included the following: Liza Lee, Priscilla Gingrich; Lazy Lee, Francis Thompson; Nellie Kennedy, Maxine Weaver; Mrs. Kitty Burlove, Lois Doyle; Dr. Henry Stan- ley, Roy Carroll; Bob Stanley, William Clement; Mrs. Mabel Moore, Jeane Coffey; Inspector Gil- hooley, William Gilbert; Jeffrey Fallen, Charles Crane; Peggy Moore, Constance Coiner; Lucille Page, Delores Aylor; and John Baxter, the mys- tery man, Eugene Wagner. The play had been chosen by a selection com- Secretary Treasurer Adviser mittee and the club voted to accept it at the third meeting. The dramatists began practicing on February 6. It wasn’t at all strange to walk down the halls of CHS and see two or three stu- dents in a group, gesturing and reeling off lines of the play. Finally, after many rehearsals, the play went on. On the big night at 8:00 P.M., the curtain rose and “The Haunted Chair,” with all its thrills, chills, and chuckles, was under way. After the last curtain call, the happy, tired “Romeos and Juliets” decided that it certainly had been worth the work. As they scraped off make-up, they were already dreaming of next year’s pro- duction. 56 }§ — Young Players Render Drama Over Radio Culpeper High School’s 1950-51 Junior Dra- matic Club was composed of students in the eighth and ninth grades. The club was organized pri- marily for the purpose of preparing the future “Hamlets” and “Ophelias” for the more advanced work of the senior organization. The junior dramatists learned the basic prin- ciples of acting, and applied them by presenting a radio program in the late fall. The program was one of a series presented by the local radio station entitled “Know Your School.” The club gave as its presentation an example of their work. After the program, they analyzed their weak points and were once more on the job. The club decided to present a one act play in the early spring. Several plays were discussed by the group and they finally decided on a comedy. The play was presented after many exciting re- hearsals, and the club felt that the work had not been in vain. They were so well pleased that they even thought another play would be worth while. After it had been staged the junior dramatists believed that their rehearsing, memorizing, and time spent were indeed worthwhile. Their audi- ences thought they were well fit to graduate to the senior organization.

Library Club Stages “Battle of Titles” Elmer James President Ada Bunch Vice-President Anne Carder Secretary-Treasurer Mildred Weaver Reporter Miss Mary George Bolen Adviser Books coming in! Books going out! But don’t think books aren’t taken care of when the Library Clubbers are about. The main task of the Library Club was, every period, every day, to man the circulation desk. The boys and girls in charge of the desk signed library permits, checked books in and out, and returned the books to their rightful places on the shelves. They also put call numbers on the books, kept records of the magazines, and prepared reports showing how many and what books each student checked out. The Library Club tried to persuade the student body to read more and better books by having a review of a new book printed in each issue of the Pepergram. All of these activities kept the Library Club busy but not too busy for their social activities. They staged a “Battle of Titles” as an assembly program to celebrate Book Week. This program had as participants every member of the club and 35 other students. The club sponsored a radio program and advertised the facilities of the library and activities of the club in a color- ful bulletin board display. The Library Club ended the school year with a social. 58 )§•— Future Business Leaders Train for Vocations One business subject and sincere business in- terest were the requirements needed to become a member of the Future Business Leaders of America. For the first time F. B. L. A. became affiliated with the national organization of F. B. L. A. A representative of this organization came to Culpeper to install the new chapter in a noteworthy assembly program and to attend a recognition buffet supper in the school cafeteria. The club’s bulletin boards were changed fre- quently to show every phase of business covered by the organization. A window was obtained in the town business district to draw the public’s Audrey Turner Violet Smith Louisa Fincham Louise Brown Mrs. William Barber Mrs. William Houck interest, by means of displays and notices. The club undertook in a business-like manner many money-making projects, such as the selling of candy and cookies at the lunch period in the school cafeteria. To close a very successful year, the club decided to take a business trip to Washington, D. C., where it visited several business organiza- tions, the F.B.I. building, and Strayer’s College. Members of the F.B.L.A. felt that the year had sent them on the first lap of their journey to the business world. President.

Homemakers Honor Mothers With Picnic Violet Soutter President Isabell Hawkins Vice-President Audrey Turner Hope Heflin Barbara Crane Mrs. Thomas Sweet The Future Homemakers of America, girls taking home economics classes, started their new year with a bang! They exhibited examples of their homemaking ability at the Culpeper County Farm Show and won a large number of awards in their division. The club displayed artistic talents in the windows of a local store as part of their celebration of National F. H. A. Week. The girls also heard outside guests speak to the club. They adopted a small girl for whom they provided a Thanksgiving basket, Christmas pres- ents, and a new Easter outfit. They proved they were reliable homemakers Secretary Treasurer Song Leader Adviser by entertaining their mothers at a social, and again when the boys of the F. F. A. club were invited to a joint meeting with the F. H. A. After discussing those problems and aims which the two clubs had in common, the girls served refreshments, much to the boys’ delight. All the F. H. A. activities were based on the girls’ talents for homemaking. Their tools were mops, dustcloths, needles, thread, and mixing bowls. Because of their interest in the well-being of American homes, the members of the F. H. A. were looked upon as perfect “li’l housewives” to be. — s{ 60 }§►— F. F.A. Joins F. II. A. In Presenting Program The Culpeper Chapter of the Future Farmers of America opened their school year by partici- pating in the Culpeper County Farm Show. They exhibited their many individual projects as well as competing in the Tractor Operation Contest, which Leon Dodson won, on September 22. The club then went to the Fredericksburg Fair where they entered a similar contest and helped construct the Federation float for the Freder- icksburg parade. The F. F. A. formed a forestry judging team which won first place in the federation contest and ranked third in the district competition held in October. The boys journeyed to Richmond where they attended the Atlantic Rural Exposi- tion, watching cattle judging especially. The initiation of “Green Hands” took place in the fall. All those being initiated wore green hands on their shirts for two days after which they were recognized as regular members. In December, the F. F. A. was entertained by the F. H. A. at a joint meeting of the two clubs. The Reverend Franklin Cale spoke, and the clubs discussed pertinent subjects. The boys formed track teams and competed in federation contests and attended the State F. F. A. Rally. The Future Farmers had an active year and fulfilled many of the F. F. A. aims.

Spanish I Entertains Senior Club With Social JUNIOR CLUB SENIOR CLUB Julian Johnson President Thomas Hawkins Vice-President Barbara Sophia Secretary Margaret James Treasurer Mrs. Franklin Rosson Adviser Frances Kelly Mary Tinsley Eva Johnston Mrs. Franklin Rosson Culpeper County High School’s comparatively new Pan American clubs were composed of stu- dents taking the Spanish classes. There were junior and senior clubs for the first and second year classes, respectively. “Los Burros Locos,” the junior club, was a little bewildered at the beginning of the year. But after a while the club “caught on,” and its members were soon acting as though they had been brought up in Spain. “Los Burros Locos” held a Spanish party for the second year club in December. The theme was even carried out so far as to have Spanish Bingo! The novices also learned Spanish songs and customs and planned another party for the spring. “Los Diablos de Espana,” the senior club, began its year with an air of confidence, for it had already had a previous year of Spanish. The club’s first activity was a Spanish dinner given in the school cafeteria as a “welcome” for the first year students. In the spring, “Los Diablos de Espana” took a trip to see the Pan American Building in Washington. Both organizations worked on a radio program which they presented together, and visited the Home Economics De- partment where they learned room and furniture names in Spanish. The “little Spaniards” persevered and, after some trying moments, became steeped in the knowledge of Spanish America. -4 62 •- Olympic Council is Debutante of Season Hoping: to further their knowledge of the classics, several students of the Latin II class suggested the formation of an Olympic Council. After receiving the approval of their Latin teacher, Miss Laura Thornhill, the “youthful Romans” drew up their constitution, elected of- ficers, and made plans for the remainder of the year. Membership in the Olympic Council was open to all students who had successfully completed one year of Latin. Meetings were held during class period on the first Friday of each month. After the business portion of each meeting, a program, planned by the aedile, was given. These programs were always connected with the back- ground and life of the Greeks and Romans. Again the “little Romans” got busy and made preparation for one of their main events, the celebration of the Saturnalia, an annual festival of Saturn held at Rome in mid-December. Dur- ing this program Margaret Quaintance was crowned consul by the Romans. William Gilbert gave a report on Saturnalia as celebrated by the Romans. The Council sang Christmas carols and exchanged presents. After refreshments were served, a Christmas basket was packed. In order to raise money, the Latin Club sold cookies, candy, and holly in the school cafeteria. Tiny silver pins were bought by members of the club to signify that they belonged to the Junior Classical League.

Distributors’ Club Helps Customers Carolee Moscarella President Mildred Weaver Vice-President Louise Brown Secretary-Treasurer May Grady Parliamentarian Helen Dinkel Editor-Promotion Manager Miss Mary Matta Adviser This modern world demands courteous and efficient sales people in the stores. To carry out this purpose the Distributors’ Club was formed. During the last school year, this club under the direction of Miss Mary Matta carried out many activities. The entire class, composed of nine members and led by Carolee Moscarella, went to the District Convention in Charlottesville, Vir- ginia on February 12. A delegate, selected by the entire club and their adviser, Miss Matta, was sent to the State Convention in Richmond, Virginia on March 5, 6, and 7. The Distributors’ Club met every third Friday of the month during their second period class. Putting into effect the slogan, “Display is D.E.,” the club’s bulletin board proved that the mem- bers had absorbed class instruction. Each of the members was employed at a store in Culpeper where they worked each after- noon. All of the girls left CHS at 2:25 P.M. to go to their jobs except one who left at 12:30 P.M. D.E. girls were placed in the following stores: Louise Brown, Violet Soutter, and Isabel Haw- kins, Leggett’s; Mildred Ruth Weaver, Frances Durham, May Grady, and Helen Dinkel, J. J. Newberry; Carolee Moscarella, Style Center; and Rena Kibler, Giant Food Store. 64 } - D.O. Club Members Attend Conference Juniors and seniors have the opportunity of better preparing- themselves for life after they graduate by joining the D. 0. Club. Mr. Howard Newlon, sponsor of diversified occupations, en- deavored throughout the year to expand each student’s knowledge and understanding of com- mon problems. Members of this club during the past school year took an active part in diversified occupa- tions by working in many stores around town. Some of these were Shaffer’s Garage, Lewis Pharmacy, Glen’s Fair Price Store, White Shop, School Shop, Hanback Electronics, A and P Store, and J. A. Swan, Jr., and Co. During the ’50-’51 term these members worked particularly on parliamentary procedure. Among their other activities the D. 0. Club attended the annual state meeting on March 8 and 9 in Fred- ericksburg, Virginia; the entire club attending. This was the first year that girls have taken part in diversified occupations. Positions for them were available in beauty parlor work, voca- tional personnel, and other women’s work.

Safety Council Directs Bus Protection Donald Henson Frances Kibler Margaret Myers Culpeper High School’s Safety Council se- lected students from each of the school busses to act as patrolmen. These council members had the responsibility of seeing that students riding on the busses were protected at all times. There were three boys stationed on Highway 229 at the point where CHS students crossed as they arrived at and left school. The boys saw that people crossed only when there was no traffic approaching. The council held meetings once a month. At several they saw films on safety. At one Trooper Chester Moore spoke, especially stressing safety President Vice-President Secretary Adviser on the highway and giving methods of accident prevention and treatment. In December the Safety Council sponsored the sale of embroidered hats. The school blos- somed with hats of all colors and with “CHS,” “Culpeper,” and various names embroidered on them. The Safety Council also worked to win a safety flag for the school. The council strove to make CHS a much safer place for the students. Thanks to their untiring efforts, the busses, too, became safer for every- one. By working for the protection of others the school’s Safety Council gained everyone’s respect.

An eighth grade 4-H club was established to bridge the gap between the grade and high school club. Much to the chagrin of the upper classmen, the members of the junior club far outnumbered those of the senior. The older organization participated in the Culpeper County Farm Show where its members entered many classes and won a large number of ribbons. Monthly meetings were held, and plans were made to join in state projects. Girls taking homemaking projects competed in county contests. A livestock judging team was formed and they went on judging trips once a month. Members had individual projects, the progress of which they noted in record books. The junior club was not able to engage in a special group project because of lack of time. However, most of the members exhibited indi- vidual projects at the County Farm Show. Al- though they could not participate in group activi- ties, each of the eighth grade members carried one or more projects of his own. The club was kept busy and was prepared to advance its mem- bers to the senior organization the next year. Both clubs vowed to “make the best better” and fulfilled this vow by working in true 4-H tradition.

C. They were led by Captain Daniel Crane and Alternate Captain 70 J. H. Payne, two seniors who had played four years on the varsity squad. J. H. had the added experience of one year on the junior varsity squad. For the twelve seniors on the squad, 1950 was the last of high school play, but the team showed many promising underclassmen. Under the coaching of Mr. A. T. Howard, of Hampden- Sydney; Mr. Neal Shedd, of Arkansas State; and Mr. Thomas Young, of Randolph-Macon, the team won four games, lost four, and tied one. RESUME OF GAMES Woodward Prep, Washington, D. C.: Cul- peper gained the first touchdown in the second quarter, but the kick for the point was no good. Woodward pushed the ball across for two touch- downs in the second and third quarters. Both tries tor the extra point were successful, raising the score to Woodward 14, Culpeper 6. There was no scoring in the fourth quarter. Highland Springs: The Blue Devils met a stronger Highland Springs team on the oppo- nents’ field September 29. Throughout the game spectators were plagued by a steady drizzle of rain. Although many followed the team by bus and car, others took advantage of the radio broadcast from the field. While the Devils kept the Springers to a score of 12 to 7, they trailed all the way. Highland Springs’ two tries for the extra point were unsuccessful. Culpeper converted the point after their only TD of the game. Charles Town, West Virginia: In a game played on the home field the Culpeper boys over- came an early six point lead by Charles Town to win by the score of 45 to 6. Orange: Culpeper, winning an easy victory over the Hornets, kept the near-by Orange team scoreless. That night, Friday the 13th, proved unlucky for Orange who lost 44 to 0. Osbourne High, Manassas: Culpeper scored four touchdowns and gained one extra point for a total of 25 points in the first quarter as com- pared with Osbourne’s only touchdown of the game, also scored in that quarter. Culpeper won by a score of 59 to 6. James Monroe, Fredericksburg: Culpeper lost to a powerful opponent at the James Monroe High stadium. Culpeper elected to receive the kick and Hawkins took the ball. Both of Cul- peper’s TD’s were taken over the line by Haw- kins. The second culminated a series of runs and passes by Hawkins and Crane. The Jackets won, 41 to 14. Falls Church: The Jaguars tied Culpeper, 12 to 12, in a game played on a muddy field and in pouring rain. During this game, William Bled- soe, back, received a head injury which kept him out of the last games. Fairfax: The Blue Devils scored touchdowns in the middle of the first period and in the last 48 seconds of the second quarter. In the last half Culpep er went on to win, 41 to 12. Glen Allen: Culpeper faced the Panthers for their last game of the season in traditional rivalry. The game, on the home field, ended in a disappointing 34 to 0. To the spectators, Glen Allen appeared to be the largest team which Culpeper had played this season. First row, left to right: T. Hawkins, D. Crane, Left to right: Mr. T. Young, Mr. A. Howard, W.

A track was constructed around the exterior edge o f the football field and each afternoon at the close of school found the boys, includ- ing the four returning lettermen, practicing hard to perfect their skill for the thirteen different events featured. The first track meet of the season was against the Woodberry B Team on Friday, April 7, at Woodberry. The 880-yard relay which was won by Donald Henry, William Bledsoe, Daniel Crane, and Thomas Hawkins gave Culpeper the three point lead for a 58 to 55 score. ‘ 3 { 76 }§►— First row, left to right: T.

Cheerleaders Urge Teams to Victory Charles Crane Varsity Leader Nancy Jeffries Mrs. Elmer Trainum Fifteen peppy girls and one boy; these were CHS’s cheerleaders who kept the school’s morale on its toes throughout the year. A new flavor was added when the cheerleaders rode onto the field on the hood of a streamer-bedecked car to the tune of the school song. The cheerleaders and student body learned many new yells. The school spirit and pep were raised by rallies and a student parade through the streets of the town before the game with Glen Allen on the home field. Charles Crane captained the varsity squad of nine members. This squad wore entirely white Jayvee Leader Adviser outfits with blue and gold letters and ribbons. The eight junior varsity girls claimed as their captain Nancy Jeffries whose place was taken by Shirley Thompson when Nancy resigned. The junior varsity squad wore dark blue pleated skirts topped by white sweaters. To the cheerleaders was given the additional task of decorating the goal posts in the colors of the home and visiting teams and marking the band and student sections in the bleachers. Both squads were under the direction of Mrs. Elmer Trainum. First row, left to right: J. Wood, M. Baumgard ner, C. Backe. Second row: J. Hensley, M. Fincham, H. Heflin, M. Colvin, M. Baber, J. James.

Girls Run Store, For Athletic Association Juanita Payne June Wood Mary Baumgardner Claudette Backe Mrs. Elmer Trainum The Girls’ Monogram Club was made up of girls who had won letters in basketball or soft- ball, the two sports open to girls. They were steered on their course by President Juanita Payne. They had as a major activity the running of the store which served as a supply and food shop for the students. The store was open before and after school and at the lunch period. Candy, drinks, ice cream, and various school supplies were sold. As an added benefit the store was open during the fifteen minute breaks given the students after the two-period mid-term exams. One-third of the profits from the store went to the Girls’ Athletic Association to be used for supplies. President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Adviser These girls sponsored intramural sports be- tween classes and independent teams and acted as referees for these games as they had in past years. Intramural games served the purpose of encouraging healthful, sportsmanlike athletics among the high school girls. Among many other activities, the Girls’ Monogram Club held a bake sale to help pay for needed uniforms. This year the club acquired a new adviser, the girls’ physical education instructor and coach of the girls’ junior varsity basketball team, Mrs. Elmer Trainum, who came to Culpeper from James Monroe High School of Fredericks- burg. — 3 { 80 - First row, left to right: E.

Howard Adviser Early in the year the Boys’ Monogram Club elected a senior, David Guinn, to lead them through the year as president. David was sup- ported by the only other officer, Thomas Haw- kins, treasurer. The activities of the club were directed by Mr. A. T. Howard, adviser. It was an honor to belong to the Monogram Club because in order to become a member, a boy must have won a letter in one or more of the school sports such as football, basketball, base- ball, or track. Thus the Monogram Club was made up of the best athletes in the school. The Boys’ Monogram initiated new members with vehemence. Paddles were the weapons of the day as gaping crowds watched what appeared to be strange and unusual specimens of humanity attired in almost anything one could name from overalls and tattered shirts to short skirts and unmatched shoes. Some even tried with dye to imitate the boy with the green hair. The candidates were subject to two days of indignities climaxed by a stage show featuring comical dancing, music, and screams of horror — “Ow! Ouch!” Who will ever forget the rendition of “The Thing” and that fast boogie playing? 1 } - Camera Catches Devils’. Devilettes’ Doings 1. C.

Students Find Work, Fun in School Day Pictures of the above students and their activities repre- sent a typical day at CHS. In the morning before school two representative students stand before their lockers get- ting books out for the morning classes. After madly rush- ing around to get to class on time, the student finally finds serenity as the morning of four periods drags on. Then comes lunch with the mad scramble to “beat the cafeteria line” which is for the most part — impossible. The fifteen-minute free period from 12:45 to 1 o’clock is time to spend as one pleases. There are music, dancing, and basketball offered in the gym ; often one sees CHS’ “digni- fied seniors” strolling along the hall, swapping stories of the day. Activity period provides time for the numerous club meetings, an intramural game each Tuesday, and the regular Friday assembly.

The coveted honor of being selected went to Martha Ann Colvin, Daniel Crane, Barryman Hounshell, and Jacquelyn Kilby. Faculty, Seniors Select Outstanding Citizens A glance at Martha Ann Colvin’s list of extra- curricular activities and her scholastic record is sufficient to convince one that she was out- standing in both leadership and scholarship. Beginning with the presidency of the Junior Dramatic Club in her eighth grade year, Martha Ann has had leadership experience in each of the four ranking club offices. Two other presi- dencies, that of the Library Club and the Tri— Hi-Y, have been hers. Twice also she was class vice-president, in her freshman and sophomore years. She served as secretary of her junior class and treasurer of the S.C.A. Illustrating further her leadership ability, Martha Ann cap- tained the girls’ basketball team and was a mem- ber of the Monogram Club. Her pleasing per- sonality and excellent scholastic record made her schoolmates proud of her. Daniel Irving Crane will be long remembered as a leader in athletics and other phases of school life. The captain of an oft-victorious CHS foot- ball team, Danny was further honored when he was invited to join the Virginia squad for a proposed interstate football game to be played at Bluefleld, West Virginia, in August. A mem- ber of the Monogram Club, basketball team, and twice the captain of the track team, Danny also met honor roll requirements. As president of the Hi-Y, he proved his leadership in character building activities, and his strong interest in other school affairs gave him a place in the S.C.A. and Library Club. Danny’s willingness to work made him a loyal monitor, an able chair- man of the ushers, and one of the top seniors. As business manager of the Pepergram and president of the band, Paul Barryman Houn- shell has demonstrated his outstanding execu- tive ability. A more industrious senior than Barry will not be found, for despite the fact that he is a member of the band, Hi-Y, S.C.A., Monitors’ Committee, Glee Club, and Quill and Scroll, Barry holds down a job in his spare time and manages to keep his scholastic average high. Voted most likely to succeed by the seniors, Barry Hounshell will make a place for himself in the future just as he has done here at CHS. The fact that the faculty and senior class selected Jacquelyn Ann Kilby to receive the DAR good citizenship award proved that she was an outstanding citizen throughout her high school career. In leadership, she excelled as president of the Tri-Hi-Y, editor of the COL- ONNADE, news editor of the Pepergram, and secretary of the S.C.A. As pianist for both the Junior and Senior Glee clubs, Jackie gave un- selfishly of her time and talent. Again, she served her school as a loyal and dependable member of the Dramatic Club, Monitors’ Com- mittee, and Junior Red Cross. Another evidence of Jackie’s versatility was her ability to main- tain a high scholastic average at the same time that she was participating in a variety of extra- curricular activities. A true Christian, Jackie upheld the ideals of the Tri-Hi-Y both in the school and in the community where she continues to exert an influence for right. 87 }f Scenes from 1950 Junior-Senior Prom: 1.

Juniors Honor Seniors at Gala Prom The juniors entertained the seniors at the annual Junior-Senior Prom held on May 18, 1951. The junior class, led by Estil Brown, president; Trewitt Harding, vice-president; Lora Hossley, secretary; and Robert Coates, treasurer, worked long and hard over plans for the “most looked- forward-to dance of the year.” Music was supplied by Connor Phillips and his “Cavaliers.” 8 8 1.

Coiner and Gilbert Rei£n Over Annual Cotillion Constance Coiner and William Gilbert, chosen and crowned by Supt. Paul Hounshell as the best dancers, reigned as the King and Queen of Hearts over the Sweetheart Cotillion given jointly by the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y Clubs on February 16 in the high school gym. The gym was decorat- ed with streamers of red and white crepe paper, a heart at one end, a rose arbor in the center of the floor, and card tables enclosing an oval space for dancing. Following the crowning of the king and queen, refreshments were served. The floorshow, in which Mr. Woody Powell acted as Master of Ceremonies, consisted of Mrs. Mar- garet Rosson’s tap dancing and playing the clari- net, Mr. Les Walden’s playing a trumpet solo, and Mr. Powell’s singing “If. Led by Ann Graves, president of the Tri-Hi-Y, and Edgar Sims, vice-president of the Hi-Y, the dancers formed a figure around the rose arbor. The figure, composed only of Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y members and their dates, was followed by a no- break dance. The Hi-Yers felt their hard work had not been in vain as the evident success of the dance proved. 89 ]§►- Hi-Yers Play Host to District Conference CHS played host to the annual District IV Hi-Y Convention of approximately 100 delegates from the various schools on October 14 and 15. The two-day conference featured discussion groups, speeches, and entertainment — all pre- pared by the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y clubs of CHS. Dr. Othell Hand, director of religious ac- tivities at the University of Richmond, delivered the inspirational address on the theme of the conference — “To create, maintain, and extend . . .” The remainder of the morning was taken up by four discussion groups, led by four of Cul- peper’s outstanding citizens as follows: Mr. Floyd T. Binns, Mr. Herbert Hash, Rev. David Lewis, and Mr. Charles W. Weisiger, Jr. In the evening a banquet was served in the cafeteria by the P-TA. At the close of the ban- quet, votes were cast for district officers for the coming year; and at a social held in the gym, results of the balloting were announced. The local group was honored by the selection of its Hi-Y president, Estil Brown, as president of the convention. Sunday morning the delegates met for the in- stallation of the new officers, and then the entire group attended the Culpeper Presbyterian Church. 90 Colonnade Congratulates 1.

Nominees foi the title were chosen by the boys’ varsity basket- ball team, and the student body had its first chance to vote for them immediately after re- turning from the Christmas holidays. The vot- ing was dene at lunch time in the gymnasium where there were five jars, one for each of the girls. Votes were one cent each, and the con- tainers bearing the contestants’ names were cov- ered so that the exact number of votes for each could not be seen. At last the Falmouth game, at which the queen was to be crowned, approached. The vot- ing drew to a close, and votes were tallied, with the results being kept secret. On February 9, between the jayvee and varsity games, the coro- Jacquelyn Ann Kilby (Continued from page 25) 4; Colonnade Staff 3, 4, 5, Associate Editor 4, Editor- in-Chief 5; Dramatic Club, Vice-President 3; Glee Club, Pianist 3, 4, 5; S.

A throne of white, decorated in blue and gold, was rolled onto the basketball court, and the boys of the varsity team lined up on either side of it. Then Constance Coinei, Margaret Glenn, Ann Graves, and Mary Miller, who were the princesses, entered the gymnasium and took their places beside the boys. A trumpet fanfare, played by Jesse Yowell, announced the entrance of the 1950-51 Basketball Queen, Alice Clark. Crown bearer Paul McNeer presented the crown, and Robert Loy, captain of the varsity team, crowned Alice queen of the season. After being escorted to the places of honor by the members of the team, the queen and her court reigned over the CHS-Falmouth game which was won by the home team.

Again the staff says, “Many, many thanks for that splendid cooperation.” World Confronts Young Citizens As Year Ends . . . So comes to a close another year of achievement as high school citizens. Un- derclassmen will return in the fall ; seniors will join the ranks of those in a more mature world. It will be a troubled world into which they go — a world that needs to know the values of good citizenship, a world that needs to realize that considera- tion and cooperation pay. These seniors, now world citizens, will assume new duties and work for a peace that will bring justice to all. — 120 }! •-
