I’m PEPPY, the 1951-52 school spirit of Cul- peper County High School; my name is adapted from the word Culpeper. I’m here to take each reader on a journey through the 1952 yearbook, the Colonnade. “I’ll show you the faculty, the teachers the students have grown to love, although they’d never think of admit- ting it! You’ll see the “dignified” seniors go through their last year at C. H. S. as well as underclassmen who are still striving to reach that goal which the seniors have now attained. I’m going to take you on a trip showing the activities of the numerous clubs and organizations which help make school life enjoyable. I’ll introduce the athletic teams, the boys and girls who help C. H. S. hold its own in the world of sports. Then, of course, you’ll see the many varied happenings and occasions in the 1951-52 school life which made this year stand apart from the others spent here. Finally, I’ll bring you to the advertisements of local merchants and other business establishments. These ads are one of the sources of income which make publication of the Colonnade possible. “As I lead you through page after page, I hope you realize that you are looking at Culpeper County High School itself as well as its most loyal supporters — the students of C. H. S. “The ’52 Colonnade staff has worked hard on this book so that you can have at your fingertips a complete remembrance of the 1951-52 high school year. Remember this Colonnade in future years, and it will serve you well in return by bringing back all your fondest memories of C. H. S. “Are you ready for the trip? All right, let’s go!” CONTENTS PAGE FOREWORD 4 DEDICATION 6 BOOK i 7 Administration 8 Faculty io Curriculum 12 Student-Faculty Pictures 16 Locale 18 BOOK 2 19 Senior Class 20 Senior Directory 29 Under Class Officers 33 Junior Class 34 Sophomore Class 37 Freshman Class 40 Eighth Grade 43 BOOK 3 47 Organizations 48 BOOK 4 73 Athletics 74 BOOK 5 87 September 88 October 89 November 90 December 91 January 92 February 93 March 94 April 95 May 96 BOOK 6 97 Advertisements 98 Index 99 FINIS 128 Staff Honors Thornhill The staff of the 1952 Colonnade most affection- ately and appreciatively dedicates this yearbook to Miss Laura Thornhill. Miss Thornhill, as well as instilling useful know- ledge in the students’ minds, has given selflessly of her time and energy in order to help better the school. Because of her excellent guidance and spirit of interest and companionship, she has become the friend of many boys and girls. It is because of her many outstanding qualifica- tions that the staff is sincerely happy to dedicate the 1952 Colonnade to Miss Thornhill. 6 Book 1 Faculty , A dministration Set ' 51- 52 Pace Here are the teachers of C. H. S., friends of the students as well as school masters. In 1951-52 the faculty served the pupils as a main source for inspiring a fine school spirit and gave the students a good background for future careers. The boys and girls of C. H. S. thank you, faculty. Your high standards and fine principle encourage the kind of school spirit that will help to make the ’52 pupils good citizens of tomorrow. 4 7 ] V Mr. Charles W.

Combs M.Ed., Duke University Principal Principal ' s Message Students of today are destined to live in an age of conflict. This is a conflict of ideas concerning ultimate values. This generation is challenged to formulate clear-cut ideas relating to freedom and justice, to develop the ability to express those ideas forcefully and effectively, and to have the courage and initiative to take a firm stand for that which is right. Meeting this chal- lenge depends, in no small measure, upon the education you receive through the public schools. This education must go beyond the learning of subject matter and the mastery of skills. You must learn to think, to evaluate, and to assume the responsibilities which are constant companions to the privileges of a democracy. If, through your train- ing in this high school, you are better prepared to meet these challenges, we will feel that we have served our purpose in strengthening democracy and our way of life.

S. classes Culpeper High School opened its 1951-52 year with two objectives in sight: (1) To help each student grow in understanding the rights and duties of a citizen in a democratic society. (2) To help each student prepare himself to earn a livelihood suitable to his interest and abilities. In order to reach these goals, three courses of study are open to all students. These courses which are designed to cover the educational needs of boys and girls of today are College Preparatory, Commercial, and General. Although each of these plans of study differ from the others, there are certain basic requirements which all pupils must meet in acquiring sixteen Carnegie units necessary for graduation. These minimum requisites for graduation are four units of English, two of mathematics, one each of civics, United States history, and science. Elective subjects, chosen by the students according to their courses of study, are taken to supplement these essentials. The school year is divided into six six-week periods. Tests at the end of each six weeks determine one third of the monthly grade. An honor roll list is compiled at the end of each of these periods for all those students who make no scholastic grade below “B” and no conduct grade below satisfactory. Culpeper High School employs a point system which serves to prevent pupils from engaging in so many extra- curricular activities that their academic work suffers. Membership in the various clubs counts a certain number of points according to the club, and offices in these organ- izations count an additional number of points. Students are limited to a specific number of activity points according to their scholastic record, thereby keeping a proper balance between studies and activities. The school has a Code of Ethics, known to all students, and uses the pledge system during examination periods. 12 } Students Prepare for Future Study Mrs. Franklin Rosson’s first year Spanish class uses Spanish records to improve pronunciation A student sets up a film projector in Miss Virginia Lewis ' s biology class For the purpose of giving a good high school founda- tion to all pupils who plan to continue their education after high school, the college preparatory course offers both useful and profitable classes. Language, science, and mathematics are the specialties in college preparatory classes. The courses required for a college preparatory diploma are four years of English, two of science and algebra, and one each of United States history, civics, and geometry. Electives such as world history, Latin, Spanish, chemistry, physics, and solid geometry and trigonometry are chosen by each individual to supplement his required courses. 4 13 Business World Awaits Many Workers Miss Jean Young’s first-year typing class concentrates on speed and accuracy Shorthand students listen to Mrs. IV. Houck’s dictation The commercial course is designed to accommodate those pupils who want to make a place in their future for secretarial work and other commercial positions. Since the field of business is so very competitive, only those students who are sure of their desire to enter the business world are encouraged to take the commercial course. For this same reason, the scholastic standards for graduation with a commercial diploma are necessarily high and de- manding. Required subjects for the course are four years of English, two each of typing and shorthand, and one each of business arithmetic, U. S. history, civics, general mathematics, science, general business, bookkeeping, and vocational bookkeeping and office practice. $ 14 General Course Oilers Varied Training Mr. S. Aylor ' s shop class repairs a farm wagon Home Economics students, under the direction of Mrs. T. Sweet, learn to prepare meals Many high school boys and girls want a good, practical education without college preparatory or commercial work included, therefore, C. H. S. has a general course, its basic high school course. Students whose high school work follows the general plan of study are prepared to be good citizens and are also equipped to enter one of the fields of carpentry, plumbing, or mechanics, although most of them specialize in retail selling, farming, or home econom- ics. Requirements are four years of English, two of math- ematics, and one each of U. S. history, civics, and science. They choose the seven additional units needed for grad- uation from any other classes they wish. Teachers Found in Typical Haunts a. Some new teachers, Mr. J. Logan, Mrs. H. Hutcher- son, Mrs. W.

Home of 560 Students tor ' 52 Culpeper County High School is a 700,000 brick structure built during 1948-49. It contains 20 classrooms in addition to a large library, and a library office and work- shop, a cafeteria, gymnasium, school store, two science rooms, a home ec suite of four rooms and a bath, an office consisting of two rooms, and two dressing rooms. The shop building is a separate structure which houses the vocational, agriculture, and industrial arts departments. There is a public address system throughout the school; lockers for students are built in the walls of the halls, and each room is equipped with a clock, heaters, and sufficient lighting facilities. The high school is located on Highway 229, approxi- mately one mile north of Culpeper. 18 )- Book 2 Student Body of ' 52 Largest in History “The faces you’ll see on the following pages are those of the 560 pupils in the 1952 student body of Culpeper High School. These boys and girls each displayed an ability to fight for high ideals and as a group they did much during the year to improve school spirit and atti- tude. Here are the boys and girls who made the story of this book and for whom it is told. They are the school, for in the final analysis the students make the school what it is.” Seniors of ' 52 Make History in C.H.S . “These will be the happiest five years in your life!” proud parents said as the new eighth graders set out in 1947 to enter high school for new adventures, good times, and hard work. They had begun their journey into high school days. The students made the first major adjust- ments to routine and the class elected Estil Brown as their leader, whom they further honored with the presidency for each of their succeeding years in C. H. S. The mis- chievous flock was kept under control by Mrs. J. W. Ross, Mrs. Robert Chilton, Miss Sutton Bland, and Miss Emily Carper. As freshmen, they became further acquainted with C. H. S. life. This year’s homeroom teachers, Mrs. George Hudson, Mrs. Gordon Witt, and Miss Joan Lane, helped them to settle down in earnest. By the time the ambitious classmates attained the height of sophomores, the rest of the school had accepted them in the major activities. Guided by Miss Martha arriner, Miss Virginia Lewis, and Miss Ellen McMullen, the class advanced still farther up the road to graduation. Upperclassmen now, the Class of ’52 settled down to accumulate funds for the annual Junior-Senior Prom. The juniors weathered the storm of more responsibilities and harder courses assisted by Miss Gertrude Lewis, Miss Laura Thornhill, and Mr. Joseph Hafer. For the last time, the Class of 1952 entered C. H. S. — this time as the proud leaders. The first step down the long aisle came when the seniors first marched in and took their places at the head of the student body. The seniors were kept on their course by Miss Jean Ferguson, Mrs. Revere Houck, and Mr. Floyd Binns. Rings arrived, they watched their last football and last basketball games. Caps, gowns, and calling cards were ordered and the Cotillion came and went followed closely by the senior play. Then came the prom, that wonderful evening which is now only a memory. Only a few steps remained to be taken, and these passed with the fleeting days. Class day was over now, and proud seniors entered the auditorium for Baccalaureate Sermon and left in the shadow of gradua- tion. Graduation exercises came, and for the last time the Class of 1952 started down the aisle. Even now, as they look back on these last five years, they could remember with pride their high school days — their laughs and their tears, their work and their play. Diploma in hand, each new citizen stepped through the door that separates high school and the future, fully aware of the great responsibility that was his.

Home- coming, the Sweetheart Cotillion, and the Senior Dramatic Club play highlighted the Activities Fill Year year; but the organizations had many other forms of entertainment, as well as worth- while projects, under their supervision. They helped make Culpeper High a little more enjoyable for all.” Seated, Left to Right: E. Brown, Miss V. Lewis, T. Hawkins, M. James Second Row: M. Baber, M. Harding, A. Griffin, M. Baumgardner, E.

Introduces First Homecoming OFFICERS Thomas Hawkins President Margaret James Secretary Estil Brown Treasurer M iss Virginia Lewis Adviser Innovating a homecoming for Culpeper High School was the highlight of the activities of the S. C. A. for 1951-52. The day the homeroom representatives reported the news of the homecoming, the students became very enthusiastic over the project. October 25 and 26 were the dates set and the clubs and organizations made plans for entering the parade. There was a bonfire and a pep rally on the night of October 25 at which the students burned a Monroe Yellow Jacket in effigy; then they watched the Blue Devils scrimmage. Afterwards the Senior Glee Club and the band entertained the alumni at a reception held in the school cafeteria. The next day, the C. H. S. teenagers were very busy for that was the day for the big homecoming parade.. Appropriate floats and banners represented fifteen or- ganizations in the parade, and students marched in home- room groups carrying banners indicating their desire to 4 48 }• defeat James Monroe High School. The F. F. A. and F. H. A. were co-owners of the prize winning float, which carried a goose in a big black pot showing that Culpeper would cook Fredericksburg’s goose. That night the Blue Devils played the football game with their arch rivals, Fredericksburg. At halftime Captain Estil Brown crowned Margaret Quaintance Homecoming Queen. After the game, C. H. S. students held a dance to which the boys and girls from James Monroe High School had been invited. The S. C. A. did more than provide homecoming entertainment, for it served as the student governing body for the entire school. When students had a problem that they thought needed attention, they turned to the S. C. A. for help. The council not only heard student-school problems, but it trained students in making their own decisions and getting along with others. CHAIRMEN OF COMMITTEES Sandra Kerrick. . . Barbara Hawkins.

Bunch Colonnade lor ' 52 Largest Ever Lois Doyle Editor-in-Chief Ada Bunch Business Manager Miss Mary George Bolen Adviser Mrs. W. A. Houck Assistant Advisers Mr. John Wiggs With pen and paper in hand, Lois Doyle, Editor-in- chief, set the pace for the 1951-52 Colonnade workers. The section editors followed in step by putting all under- class representatives to work. First Lora Hossley took her ad staff in town to solicit local firms on October 29. The typist also sent many letters to out-of-town business firms to secure advertise- ments. In the meantime everyone dashed to and fro compiling all information that was necessary and obtain- able. Page Borst and her assistant, Beatrice Lemos, watched every move the clubs and organizations made. William Gilbert and his assistant, Jeane Coffey, kept close tab on the students’ school life. Janet Bolen kept up with all athletic events while Margaret Quaintance contacted all students who didn’t have activity tickets and sold them yearbooks. Margaret James started work on the student director} ' while Barbara Southworth took full charge of the class pictures. She 4 50 } and her helpers alphabetized each class, and saw that everyone looked neat when the photographer took their pictures. The editor-in-chief and other editors drew three dummies of the Colonnade, made plans with the printer and engraver. Mr. Thomas Sweet was always on hand with the staff camera to get snapshots. The Colonnade would never have gone to press had it not been for the typists. After they had typed and retyped all the yearbook’s material by March i, the Colonnade went to press. The next big job was to proofread the material sent back from the printer. After a great deal of checking, the staff sent these proofs back to the printers. Colonnade workers held a party in the school cafeteria the night before the book made its appearance in C. H. S. to view their handiwork before the public presentation. Then there was a sigh of relief and thanks throughout the library as the adviser and the entire staff saw the Colonnade presented to the student body and distributed on Class Day. All came to the conclusion that cooperation, hard work, and burning the “mid- night oil” had done a good job of publishing the ’52 Colonnade. STAFF MEMBERS Barbara Southwortii Page Borst. .

Well, hurry, you know the paper goes to press Friday.” This was heard in Miss Gertrude Lewis’s homeroom at different intervals each day, for the staff prepared the school paper for press in her room. Constance Coiner and Barbara Jean Sophia, co-editors, planned the assignment sheet for the Pepergram. They put every staff member to work. The news editors kept an eye on every school achievement. Feature writers saw that their columns were written; the sports editors and writers attended all athletic events and wrote accurate accounts of the games. Along with news, feature, and sports write- ups, there were editorials and a fashion column. The Pepergram would never have passed the first stage of completion had it not been for the staff typist, Ada Bunch, and those mem- bers of the staff who gave her a helping hand. Other V. I. P.’s of the Pepergram staff were the staff artists, the business, advertising, and circulation managers, and their assistants. After the staff completed the assign- ments, the editors then corrected and had them typed. Following this the staff members wrote headlines and sent all material to the Virginia Star office where copy was set. The •Sf 52 b printers sent the galley proof back to the editors who rechecked it. The next task was drawing the dummy. After the staff made the drawing, they sent it and the copy back to the Virginia Star office to have them make the proof pages. Later when the Virginia Star made these proof pages, they sent them back to C. H. S. to be proofread. After checking and double checking the Pepergram, the staff sent it to press. When the papers returned to school for delivery all members of the Pepergram staff took a deep breath and started work again.

Borst Tri-Hi-Y Publishes Student Directory Barbara Sophia President Patricia Suddith Vice President Lora Hossley Secretary Janet Bolen Treasurer Mrs. Franklin Rosson Adviser Adding two new activities, namely the publishing of a student directory and playing hostess to a Christmas party, the Tri-Hi-1 Club kept up its reputation for being one of the most active clubs in school. They adopted a needy child and sent her presents on her birthday, at Christmas, at Easter, and at Thanksgiving, when they also sent her family a big basket with all sorts of food in it. The Tri-Hi-Y members attended church in a body every third Sunday. The churches attended were the ones to which members belonged. As a means of entertainment, the club gave a Christmas dance on December 19 , in the school cafeteria. In order to be able to enter the door, students had to bring a can of food. The Tri-Hi-1 used this food in filling Christmas baskets. In order to raise money, the Tri-Hi-Y, in cooperation with the Colonnade, pub- lished a student directory. Another exciting activity of the club was the Sweetheart Cotillion given by the IIi-1 and Tri-Hi-1. They also held the annual Mother-Daughter Day, and gave religious assemblies throughout the school year. The girls fulfilled their aims and accomplished much as good Christian workers. 54. fc Adviser Spurs Hi-Y to Higher Goals With a feeling of pride because the dis- trict president was a C. H. S. boy, the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y went to the Hi-Y, Tri-Hi-Y District Conference with smiles covering their faces. The twenty-nine counties in district IV sent delegates to this conference held at Warrenton, Virginia, November 17-18. On November 5, the Hi-Y ' inducted five new members into their club. At this service the officers explained the club’s platform which includes clean speech, clean sportsmanship, clean scholarship, and clean living. All in- ductees and original members pledge to sup- port these ideals and standards. Edgar Sims James Moore Estil Brown Robert Button Mr. Joseph Hafer The Hi-Y sponsored religious assemblies throughout the school year. Then at Christ- mas the Tri-Hi-Y gave a dance which the Hi-Y attended in full force. The boys helped in securing the decorations and in setting them up. Often the Tri-Hi-Y wondered how they could have done without them. In cooperation with the Tri-Hi-Y ' , the Hi-Y ' co-sponsored the ever popular Sweet- heart Cotillion. As is the case every year, the student body thought the dance was the best ever. So the Hi-Y knew the students appreciated its efforts. No wonder C. H. S. found reason to be proud of its Hi-Y in 1951-52. President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Adviser Seated, Left to Right: P. McNeer, R. Button, E. Sims, J. Moore, E. Brown Second Row: C.

With Kathleen Yancey as president and Mrs. Jack Yoho as their leader, the Junior Glee Club got off to a good start by having tryouts to determine whether the students applying for membership were sufficiently talented and were interested enough in music to qualify as glee club members. Since the club consisted of about sixty- five members, it was necessary to divide it into several sections, such as first and second soprano, alto, tenor, and bass. One of its first activities was participating in the elabo- rate Homecoming Parade with other music classes. The Junior Glee Club entertained the student body and the public several times Vice President Secretary Treasurer Librarian Director during 1951-52, but they spent most of their work and rehearsal time in preparing for their annual Spring Concert. Members regarded the concert as a huge success, for after having heard the club sing, one realized that all their practice had not been in vain. The Spring Concert was the biggest production of the year for the junior songsters, and they came through with banners flying. At the close of the school year, the mem- bers realized that they had absorbed many desirable singing qualities and most of them decided to take an active part in the music program the next year. ■Cf 56 K 5 Glee Club Gains Place With Classes For the first time in C. H. S. history the Senior Glee Club became a regular class, meeting every day during a class period. To start the year off right, the treasurer collected dues and Mr. James Logan bought new music with the money. The first activity of the Glee Club was in the Homecoming Parade and the alumni entertainment. At the alumni reception, the Glee Club rendered their version of “Halls of Ivy” which brought tears to the eyes of many graduates. To the delight of the students, the Glee Club had charge of the assembly on December 14. To help further the Christmas spirit, the song- birds warbled “White Christmas.” They also sang the ever popular “Make Believe” by Jerome Kern. The Glee Club journeyed to Fairfax High School to take part in an event for which they spent a great deal of time practic- ing, the District IV Virginia High School Music Festival held April 4. Later in the spring, the Glee Club gave a treat to all the music lovers in Culpeper and surrounding territories by participating in the Spring Concert. To end the year, the Glee Club sang at graduation exercises, this being the last time for the seniors to act as a part of the C. H. S. Glee Club.

Borst Band Plays tor School , Civic Functions Joseph Knakal Mary Tinsley Priscilla Gingrich Mr. James Logan President Vice President Secretary-Treasurer Director “Ready, one, two, three, four, play!” That was the pass word for the band that students heard every school day. There were two band classes each morning plus a practice of the entire band every Thursday during activity period. Band and majorette performances be- gan at the football games where they marched and kept the spectators holding their breath as Jo Anne Trice and Ellsworth Bowler twirled their fire batons. After a great deal of hard work in prepar- ing for the Christmas concert, weather con- ditions halted the band’s performance. Never- theless, they successfully gave the annual Spring Concert. The music makers marched in the Christ- mas parade when Santa Claus came to town. They played twice for the March of Dimes, and they also performed at a U. D. C. meeting when General Edward M. Almond returned to Culpeper. President Joseph Knakal and Christopher Geest represented C. H. S. at the All-State Band of Northern Virginia in Charlottesville, February 8th and 9th. On April 5th the band packed their instruments and went to the music festival at Fairfax where they received honors. Throughout the 1951-52 year, the school, faculty, Mr. Logan, and the band members themselves took great pleasure in watching the band “grow, and grow, and grow.” 4 58 fr Safety Club Works for Pupil Security Thanks to the members of the Safety Council, students at C. H. S. were able to have safer and happier rides to and from school. Drivers selected boys and girls from each bus to act as patrolmen. These patrol- men had the responsibility of keeping order on the bus, seeing that no traffic went by while the students crossed the road, and upholding safety rules. It seemed as though the patrolmen with their red flags got on and off the bus every second, just to insure the safety of the school children. The Safety Council held meetings once a month. At these meetings the entire club viewed films which stressed the importance of patrolmen on the buses. The club also had adult patrolmen talk to the members at these monthly meetings. Because of the Safety Council’s willing- ness to look after and protect students, the buses became safer to ride. This noticeable improvement was responsible for the council gaining respect in the eyes of the entire student body. Donald Henson Marvin Hoke Betty Hitt Mr. James Wayland President ...

Vice President Secretary Treasurer Adviser Assistant Adviser The main activity of the Dramatic Club was to present a three-act play sometime during the year for the public’s enjoyment and the actors’ experience. Early in the fall the members started to work on this activity by reading different plays and finally choosing the one they thought best. Selecting a suit- able play was not easy, but the majority ruled, and “Smilin’ Through’’ was the play that finally came out the winner. The next step in producing the play was the try-outs for the parts. December finally came and the students who showed the best ability received parts in “Smilin’ Through.” After the students returned to school from the Christmas holidays, the rehearsals began in earnest. Under the direction of Mrs. Gordon Witt, the members of the cast devoted much of their time after school and at nights to memorizing lines. Finally the opening night arrived, and the young actors and actresses stepped into the spotlight. Although there was much confusion backstage, the dramatists displayed the true spirit of “show business” and all three acts of the play unfolded smoothly for the audience. At the close of the play, everyone agreed that it was a production that would be long remembered and was worth the anxiety and work needed to put “Smilin’ Through” before the public. 4 60 Junior Actors Study One-Act Plays Under the direction of Miss Jean Fergu- son, the Junior Dramatic Club gave its first presentation of the year in an assembly on November 30, amid the shrieks of laughter of the student body. The play selected for presentation was “Paul Splits the Atom,” a comedy which described the trials and tribulations of a young scientist who was convinced he could split an atom with a 1.98 chemistry set. Much to the woe of his family, he succeeded in blowing up all surrounding objects, including his chemistry set. Several other one-act plays were given by the junior “Lunts and Fontannes” and the students enjoyed these equally as well as the first one. In addition to the plays produced by the Junior Dramatic Club, the members, under the direction of Peggy Dulin, the president, studied various phases of act- ing, make-up, and the staging of a play during their regular club meetings. These instruc- tions in dramatics served to give the junior club members an idea of what the larger three- act plays would be like in the Senior Club. As the main purpose of the Junior Dra- matic Club was to promote interest in dra- matics and give young hopeful actors their first taste of acting, it seemed that their goal was indeed carried out and audiences looked forward to seeing some of the members as future members and players in the productions of the Senior Dramatic Club.

F. A., opened the year’s activities of the Future Homemakers of America. The club gave an assembly on November nth, explaining the F. H. A. emblem and symbols. Another activity for November was the Thanksgiving buffet sup- per, at which the girls served the board of Directors of the District N Education As- sociation and their guests. In order to make someone who was less fortunate have a merry Christmas, the F. H. A. girls prepared food, clothing, and toys for the unfortunate families and foster children in the county. Also in December, the F. H. A. played host to the F. F. A., at a Christmas party in the Home Ec Department. In February the club held a banquet and gave out F. H. A. award degrees. The banquet, for the mothers, fathers, and daugh- ters, emphasized the importance of worthy home membership. All the activities the girls took part in were helpful in preparing them for their future life as housewives. The club felt that this training should be sought by all girls who are interested in the betterment of the American home. 4 62 }• F.F.A. Head Excels in Tractor Driving President Jack Yancey set the pace for the Future Farmers of America, by winning the tractor-driving contest at the Culpeper Farm Show on September 14th and 15th. Other members of the club also won recognition with the exhibits of their individual projects. Joined by the F. H. A., the F. F. A. attended the Atlantic Rural Exposition in Richmond on October 2. Here the F. F. A. watched cattle judging and other projects similar to the ones they had here in the county. The forestry judging team took fourth- place honors in the annual George Washington Federation forestry judging contest at Spotsyl- vania High School on November 13th. Thanks to the F. F. A., the trees around school were ready for winter weather since the boys had treated and cared for them. Other activities of the club were partici- pation in the district basketball tournament and track meet, holding a banquet, and dairy judging. By carrying on all these activities, the Future Farmers of America learned many useful things about farming and at the same time had wholesome recreation. For the most part, the boys of the club will be able to con- tribute more to their future life as farmers because of their participation in the F. F. A. in 1951-52.

Treasurer Reporter A dviser Members of the first and second year Spanish classes, plus a few students who had completed their study of Spanish composed the Pan American Club. The Senior Club, “Los Burros Locos,” began the year by sending Spanish letters of welcome to the first year classes. The first year classes returned this gesture of good will by entertaining the “Los Burros Locos” on November 16th at the “Cafe Hombre Pere- zoso,” better known as the C. H. S. cafeteria. Class I carried out the Latin American theme with a five course dinner of Spanish food, and a floor show featuring singers, a clarinetist, and a rhumba dance. During the week of January 2ist, the Spanish classes put up a bulletin board dis- play, showing the varied ways Spanish is put to use other than by ordinary classroom work. Another activity was writing letters to pen pals in South and Central America. The work of the Spanish clubs ended when the “Los Burros Locos” gave a return party to the first year classes, and when the second year class took a trip to Washington to visit the Pan American building and the Spanish embassy. All said that they would long remember the gay, colorful activities of the Pan American Club. { 64 ) • Latin Club Joins Classical League At the first meeting of 1951-52, the Council members secured their silver pins with the initials J. C. L. on them, the J. C. L. standing for Junior Classical League. There were two periods of Latin II, which caused the formation of two Olympic Councils. Since meetings were held during class, each council had its own officers, but the activities were generally the same for the two sections. At the meetings the members transacted business and then enjoyed programs that the aedile had planned. These programs were one way in which the “second year Romans’’ carried out their main goal — to understand Roman customs and ideas better. The aediles presented programs on Roman Mythology and various phases of Roman life. Thus the council had a successful first birth- day year. Together the two bodies sponsored Latin week, the week of April 14th, and entered contestants in the Latin Tournament for the entire State of Virginia, which is held every April. Students of the classes attended the tournament held at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. In the homecoming parade the club members, dressed in Roman costumes, carried a litter on which they placed a dummy repre- senting James Monroe High School. The council did much to further interest in the Latin language and customs.

At first the club members decided to divide into groups and work on projects of sanitation, photography, grafting trees, radio and electricity, model aircraft and making a plastic skeleton. After the club had planned these projects the members discovered that if they divided their club there would be a very small number in each group. Therefore, they organized into four projects. These were flowers, photography, plastics, and radio and aircraft. The National Scholastic Press Association gave all mem- President Vice President Secretary Reporter Librarian A dviser bers interested in photography an opportunity to enter a contest. This contest allowed any student to enter his favorite photograph of animal or plant life. The club received a certificate making it an official member of the Junior Academy of Science. This honor not only brought pride and pleasure to the Science Club but to the school and the student body as well. The club completed projects that im- proved the school and provided material to beautify it. The Science Club also did small jobs which helped advance the science depart- ment of Culpeper High. - ■{ 66 }■ Club Members Tend Library Desk In ’52, C. H. S. housed a group of ever- working bookworms better known as members of the Library Club. They were the folks who made it possible for students to check books out of the library, to know what types of books were on the shelves, and to appreciate and learn to use the books in the library. Every period of every day, there were two or three Library Club members in the library signing permits, checking books, work- ing on the card catalogue, and straightening out the books on the shelves. The Library Club gave an assembly program, the theme of which was “New Horizons with Books,” to celebrate National Book Week, November n-17. Barbara Carver had charge of the program which presented reports of various new books, given by six club members. The junior librarians cared for the bul- letin board in C. H.

S. library. The Library Club devoted much time and interest to the C. H. S. library, and in the opinion of the students, the members did much to make Culpeper High realize the wealth of knowledge and enjoyment which lay inside the two doors marked “Library.” Maxine Baber Barbara Carver Mary Frazier Elsie Delf Miss Mary George Bolen President . ...

H. S. students. The one year old eighth grade club served to fill in the space between the younger grade school club and the older high school group. The members held two county council meetings, one in January and the other in June. At these get-to- gethers they elected county officers and set up goals and plans for the coming year. Separately, the two sections held monthly meetings during activity periods at C. H. S. The clubs celebrated National 4-H Club Week, March 1-9, by a membership drive, an assembly program, and a bulletin board display. The clubs also observed Rural Life Sunday. The Senior Club sent delegates to the State Short Course in Blacksburg, the 4-H Camp at Appomatox, and the Federal Cartarage Company made scholarships for the Camp at Virginia Beach available. The exhibiting of projects was one of the goals carried out at the Culpeper Farm Show and at district and state fair;. Many members of both clubs won prizes and awards for their projects which they displayed. They also won awards on Achievement Day. Thus 1951-52 ended in success and happiness for the 4-H’ers. ■§{ 68 jS - F.B.L.A. Climax Year with Banquet “I believe in my own ability to work efficiently and to think clearly, and I pledge myself to use these abilities to make America a better place for everyone.” These words are a part of the creed of the Future Business Leaders of America. Knowledge of this creed and a keen interest in business are the requirements for membership. With thirty-three members and Mrs. W. A. Houck and Miss Jean Young as advisers, the group got off to a good start with an assembly program on October 19. A skit, “Susie Braney or Brainless,” contrasted the cute girl who was neither dressed nor trained for office work with the ideal secretary. A float for the homecoming parade, candy and bake sales, assistance with stenographic work in civic drives, Business Emphasis Week climaxed with a banquet and installation of next year’s officers, and the state con- vention — all of these were activities of the year. The last large event was the trip of the club to the State F. B. L. A. Convention in Richmond on April 18 and 19. The members attended the opening meeting and enjoyed the tours of business offices and the delegates, Mary Frances Jenkins and Barbara Hawkins, attended the entire convention. Mary Baumgardner. .

Vice President Secretary-Treasurer Reporter A dviser The distributors held their first meeting on October 4, and Alary Frazier won the honor of leading their organization. Under her leadership the Distributor’s Education Club was both the cultural and social outlet for its members. The club had many enjoy- able and educational programs. Films and training in parliamentary procedure were a few of the phases of a cultural nature. The social aspect was displayed through a weiner roast and hay ride on October 19, the en- tertaining of all employers at the annual employer-employee banquet, a Christmas party, and the D. E. Area Convention. The D. E. program served a dual purpose. It provided academic training as well as practical training. Club members attended classes required for graduation in the morning, and in the afternoon they went to their vari- ous retailing positions in Culpeper. During D. E. class, students took up such studies as salesmanship, display, human relations, and advertising. Many merchants in Culpeper expressed their desire to employ students under this plan. Through club meetings, class meetings, and actual work experience the D. E. Club proved that a combination of both theory and practice broadens one’s viewpoint for a business career after graduation. 4 70 } State, District Meets Draw D.O. Club To provide training in salesmanship, and to build experienced, capable business- men and women were the chief functions of the Diversified Occupations Club. The Club functioned as a class each morning, and in the afternoons some members went to their jobs at some of the business firms in Culpeper and others worked on farms. Those places at which the students worked were Leggett’s Store, Shaffer ' s Garage, Wagner’s Service Station, Western Union, Culpeper County School Board, J. A. Swan, fr., and Co., Hick’s Service Station, W. D. Troxell Dairy Farm, Whiting Oil Co., The Virginia Star Office, Culpeper Building and Supply Company, Waters and Co., Culpeper Laundry and Cleaners, Clore-Williams, the Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company, Giant Food Store, Forest Grove Farm, Green’s Esso Service Station, Glen’s Fair Price Store, and Hanback’s Electronics. On March 31 and April 1, all members of the D. 0 . Club went to Richmond to the State D. 0 . Convention. The Club chose Eugene Wagner to attend the district con- vention in Orange. All students found that through diversified occupations it was possible for them to meet the public and get a good start in the business world. R. E.

The more active boys and girls were given a chance to prove their feeling for C. H. S. and they did this well, indeed. School spirit brought them through with many victories. The sports program stressed good sportsmanship and ability rather than the importance of winning and this theory paid large dividends by helping to make 1951-52 a memorable year for athletics.” «{ 73 )s Front Row, Left to Right: T.

The team, boasting seven seniors, started the season with a bang by overpowering the unprepared Manassas eleven. In the next game Culpeper held Highland Springs to a tie in the first half, 13-13, only to see the Springers pile up 26 points in the third and fourth quarters. The Culpeper gridmen retaliated to win the next four games, but the heartbreak of the entire season came in the F ' alls Church game when a pass by Homer Garr to Thomas Hawkins at midfield and a broken field run of 50 yards to touchdown paydirt was called back by a clipping penalty. On a Saturday afternoon at Manchester the Devil eleven lost a hard played game characterized by many face injuries to the Pepermen. The team finished the season with a late surge of power to tic the District 4 Champions, the undefeated Otters of Bedford. Bedford led 14-0 at the half but Cul- peper racked up two quick touchdowns to tie the score. Culpeper fought unsuccessfully to break the tie. This game, in which Bedford was highly favored, was a fitting conclusion to a successful season. { 74 J Front Row, Left to Right: E. Martin, J. Combs, S. Hof man, J. Bache, R. Brown, R. Myers, R.

According to Coach James Wayland, Roger Myers and Calvin Brown were outstanding men in the backfield. James Combs, who played defense, seemed always to be the fifth man in the opponents’ backfield. James White, whose kicking ability was unequaled on the team, saved them in many a tight spot. The method of substitution approached that of a two platoon system in order to give more boys a chance to play. The entire squad, made up of eighth graders and freshmen, was a separate unit from the varsity and gave the younger boys a chance to gain experience before playing varsity ball. The jayvees’ only game under the lights was played on the home field against Woodberry Forest. Both teams fought hard as the ball shuttled back from one side to the other but neither was able to account for any points. Culpeper crossed the goal line once but was called back by a clipping penalty. In the other tie of the season, Manassas came from behind in the last three minutes to make the score 13-13. 3f 75 }2 Front Row, Left to Right: R. Noakes, J. Parker, IF. Chukinas, H. Garr, P.

James Monroe defeated Culpeper in the road game, but could not down them on their own court. Going into the tournament second-seeded, Culpeper drew and defeated Fredericksburg, 44 to 30, in their opening game, only to be edged out 43 to 45 in the semi-finals by Spot- sylvania, twice beaten in the regular season. In the consolation tilt, Culpeper downed Thomas Dale, 50 to 41, to win third place in District 2. Team Captain Homer Garr placed on the All Tournament 1 cam, chosen by the coaches of the eight participating teams. Homer Garr, Roy Carroll, Paul McNeer, and Robert Somers will be lost to the team by graduation, and eight of this year’s squad will return. 4 . 76 ) 3 Front Row, Left to Right: H. Hicks, J.

New uniforms, a new coach, and new equipment and the junior varsity basketeers were almost ready to play ball. First, however, they had to drill in the fundamentals and practice the plays required for a fast game. They had to learn to break away from their guards and take the ball up the floor quickly. None could become expert with- out learning to use his head when in the game. Then came the actual games and they won the first by a four point margin and the second by 25 points.

Eighth graders were restricted to the jayvee team and the squad proved a training ground for others who lacked ability and experience to claim a varsity berth. 77 Seated, Left to Right: B.

From the best to the least skillful players on the team, all were seeking to become better forwards and guards. Teamwork and sacrificing personal honors for the good of the whole were stressed. Playing her last year, Mary Ellen Baumgardner outscored all others with 94 points. Second was June Wood, also playing her last year, with 70 points. No forward on the team scored less than 13 points. As they had been in softball, Falmouth was the most to be feared foe and Front Royal ran a close second. The Devilettes were unable to defeat either of them in the 1951-52 season. The Falmouth team was composed of almost all seniors who had played together four years while Culpeper had only four seniors on the whole squad. Front Row, Left to Right: B. Kilby, A. Griffin, M.

The two losses were when the team was away from the familiar home floor. Jean Cropp was high scorer with 69 points followed by Betty Baber with 51. Using a zone defense, the guards contributed much to the success of the team by keeping the opponents’ scoring low. The forwards were best on long shots, sinking many just at the end of the playing period. Low scoring characterized the games. The highest score for any game was only 30 while in one game, a loss to Front Royal, the score looked more like a baseball rather than a basketball score. Six of the players had had previous experience though many of the rookies were on the starting line ups. At midseason the coach, Mrs. William Mill, left school and the varsity coach, Mr. Floyd Binns, took over the team. 79 ) Kneeling, Left to Right: F. Griffith, IV. Hedrick, IV. Chukinas, D. Crane, R.

They practiced hard and were well paid by the results. Daniel Crane, one of five returning lettermen and captain of the team, contributed many of the points that made Culpeper a high scoring victor in all but two meets. In the Invitational Meet held at Fredericksburg the Blue Devils placed second with 43 points as compared to 4634 points scored by the winning Fredericksburg trackmen. In competition with three other teams, Highland Springs, James Monroe, and Falls Church, the locals placed second in the District Meet with 35 points. In this meet Buddy Moore won the 440 while the Culpeper team placed first in the 880 yard relay. Culpeper took six second places. The top scorer was Highland Springs who tallied 61 points. The track team, though little publicized, brought fully as much honor to the school as any other team. They had the distinction of never placing less than second in any meet. i 80 ) 3 • Front Row, Left to Right: T. Harding, F. Thompson, R. Coates, Mr. S. Aylor Second Row: C. Coveil, E. Smoot, J.

Culpeper was doing its part toward the furtherance of the national sport. Starting practice on March 12 were eight lettermen and five others from the previous year’s squad. Though few of the scores found Culpeper in the win column, four of the losses came with a one run margin. For their pitching the team relied on Homer Garr, who won two games, and Reginald Jacobs and Joseph Knakal, who each had one win to his credit. Jacobs was the home run king of the season. The greatest value found during the season was in practice for future years as only five of the squad were lost to the team by graduation. The coaching staff, how- ever, had not been so stable, for the baseball squad had seen three coaches in as many years. 4 81 Front Row, Left to Right: M. Jenkins, J . James, L. Deal, M. Fincham , lr.

Head V arsity Cheerleader Head J unior Varsity Cheerleader Sponsor “Fight team! Fight!” The cheerleaders were at work to provide spirit, that essential for winning any game. They braved the cold and sometimes the mud to put enthusiasm and pep into the spectators. The cheer- leaders encouraged students to attend football games by sponsoring buses to the majority of the away games and by holding pep rallies. One of these rallies was in con- junction with the homecoming game with Fredericksburg. The night preceding the game they burned Fredericks- burg in effigy as the student body stood around the bon- fire and cheered. They sponsored a float in the homecom- ing parade where one of their members, Betty Ray Spil- man, was dressed as a blue devil representing the team name. They were responsible for decorating the goal posts for each game, and before each game they rode onto the field on the fenders of a convertible, leading the student body in the school pep song. They formed a figure with the band at the half of some of the games and sold programs at each game. In March they went to the basketball tournament at Randolph-Macon College to cheer the C. H. S. boys to a good showing. There were twelve varsity and six junior varsity cheerleaders composing the two squads. The varsity squad wore entirely white uniforms with blue and gold letters. The junior varsity pepsters had white athletic sweaters topping blue pleated skirts. 3{ 83 } Seated. Left to Right: Mrs. W. Mill, J. Wood , .1 . Baumgardner, C. Ileflin Second Row: B. Spilman, J.

Carpenter C Winners Join Monogram Club Mary Ellen Baumgardner President June Wood Vice President Charlotte Heflin Secretary Claudette Backe Treasurer Mrs. William Mill Adviser Composed of girls who had qualified for their varsity letters in softball or basketball, the girls’ Monogram Club was made up of members from the ninth through twelfth grades. Letters were blue on a gold back- ground with either a softball or a basketball, according to the sport, in gold on the bottom. In addition there was a gold bar on the letter for each year a girl had participated in that sport. The highest goal attainable is to win for four successive years a letter in both soft- ball and basketball. Margaret Fincham in 1951 was the first girl to do this. The main activity of the club was running, as a service to students, the school store before and after school and during the lunch period. Members helped Mr. Floyd Binns, coach of girls’ athletics, sell paper, pencils, note books, and other school supplies as well as candy, soft drinks, and ice cream. Profits from the store went to the girls’ athletic association to buy uniforms, equipment, and letters. The girls helped the cheerleaders sell programs at the football games and through- out the year stressed good sportsmanship and clean play. They held the theory that girls who participate in athletics make better students while in high school and better citizens after graduation. Seated, Left to Right: E. Sims, T. Hawkins, F.

President Vice President Secretary . . . . Treasurer Adviser When not on the playing field them- selves, members of the Boys’ Monogram Club were seen rushing here and there at games and being of service to the spectators. Be- sides helping at games they arranged the position of all floats in the Homecoming Parade before the Fredericksburg game and directed the course of the parade through town. One of the main events featured by this club during the year was the day long ini- tiation. New members, or goats, wore costumes designed by the old members. Some were tattered and torn outfits while others displayed the best in women’s fashions. On the day of the initiation, the club had charge of assembly. The goats performed with vocal renditions, poetry, and outlandish actions. The program was concluded by the public paddling of all the goats. “Ouch!” In order to become a member of the Monogram Club, boys must have won a varsity letter in competitive athletics such as football, basketball, baseball, or track, or as a manager. The club fostered interest in athletics through intramural games. This year the varsity club organized a new club of the boys who had won letters in junior varsity football or basketball. There was previously no organization provided for winners of the jayvee letter. 4 8-5 } Athletes Score Many ' 51-52 Victories a.

S. students as they entered the familiar doors for their first day of the’5i-’52 session. They found that life at Culpeper High had not changed much; to all it seemed just another typical school day. Classes began again and monitors made their appearances to those offending school regulations. Football practice finished off “first” day and paved the way toward an anticipated undefeated season. Somehow feet moved faster as 569 students crowded out the doors of Culpeper High at 3:15 that afternoon; they were back at school again, and it wasn’t so bad after all. «:f 88 )■« a.

December Brings Santa Claus, Snow The Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y Clubs of the school gave a Christmas party for the student body with Santa Claus and all the trimmings. December 19 was the big day. The cafeteria was decked in “boughs of holly” and had a huge glistening Christmas tree in its center, with Coach “Smokey” Stover as the rounded o ld gent who cheers all at the Yuletide season. All that was needed to gain entrance was a can of fruit or food to fill the baskets for the needy. This in itself was a worth-while project and students responded generously. Many other events were also scheduled but were called off because of the snowstorm, which closed school. 4 91 $ a. Betty Spilman and Francis Thompson enact scene of Olden Days. b.

S. They wrote, produced, and presented to the public on January 12, 1952, a miniature broadway musical production, entitled “Out of Grand- ma’s Trunk.” Singing and dancing filled the bill. Betty Ray Spilman, James Moore, Francis Thompson, William Gilbert, Margaret Quaintance, and Jeanne Jones had leads with Barbara Carpenter as accompanist. Miss Laura Thornhill, Mrs. M. H. Warren, Mr. Joseph Hafer, and Mr. Richard Rosenberg directed the production. iewers so graciously accepted this program, which depicted Grand- ma rummaging through her trunk of memories and reliving her most cherished moments, that the cast presented it again February 14. •1 92 K a.

February Gives Sweetheart Cotillion Girls and boys laid away school garb February 15, the date of the annual Sweet- heart Cotillion, and donned billowy formals and dark suits. At the first of the year, the Hi-Y Clubs had appointed planning committees and the Cotillion ball began to roll. They sold pop- corn and school directories to raise funds. Club members spent February 15 decorating the gym in red and white for the gala affair. Entertainment featured the Troilio dance team, the C. H. S. boys’ quartet, and musical faculty numbers. The club members formed their traditional heart figure and en- joyed a no-break dance limited to Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y members.

April Produces Junior-Senior Prom The Junior Class began to make plans at the very first class meeting for their long awaited prom. Prom date, April 4, 1952, rolled around and the Juniors rolled out the red carpet and ushered the seniors into a gala dance. The Juniors went all the way in provid- ing elaborate entertainment using as their theme, “Two Silhouettes, ’’with a theme song of the same name. Connor Phillips and his Cavaliers gave out with music by which the Juniors, Seniors, and their dates danced until midnight. This highlight of the upperclass- men’s year climaxed a very eventful 1951-52 term and the Juniors began to look forward to next year when they would be the socialites of the season. { 9 5 Class President Estil Brown receives his diploma from Supt. Paul Hounshell as Principal J. H. Combs and Mr. Floyd T. Binns look on. May Graduation Climaxes ' 52 Year May seemed to whiz by without a moment’s notice. Proud seniors entered the home stretch and realized that C. H. S. was really a second home to them and now it must be left behind after five years of fun and work. Class Day came, the Colonnade made its appearance, and students received awards. Seniors heard their Baccalaureate Sermon and knew they would soon be alumni of C. H. S. Exams were over and even now they felt free, but the most momentous occasion of all came on June 2, the night the seniors received their long awaited diplomas and became high school graduates. Their lives at C. H. S. were over, completed by graduation. 4 96 }■: Book 6 Merchants Seek Trade Through Ads The Colonnade could not be published except for the businessmen and firms in Cul- peper and the companies with which C. H. S. does business. These people are the adver- tisers without whose cooperation the year- book would not have been possible. They showed an interest in the school itself as well as an eye for business when they placed ads in the Colonnade contributing much to the ’5i-’S2 school yearbook. Friendship and con- tracts formed with the business world will result in tomorrow’s understanding and co- operation. Dick C.
