The staff has worked to produce a book which will serve as a memory book and as a school record. To give a better picture two typical students will conduct a tour extending from Sep- tember through May. The staff at this time introduces the leaders of the tour, Johnny Bluedevil and -Mary Devilette. Mary now speaks. “Hello! This is Johnny Bluedevil, and I am Mary Devilette. W e will conduct you through a year at Culpeper High School. During the tour we will introduce our teachers and all our friends. W e will show you the new stadium, and take you to our Homecoming, our parties, and club meetings. Johnny will show you the new fashions for boys, and I will show you them for girls. “W e cannot include every detail but we will bring to you the things which we think made this an important year for the school and community. Get ready to follow us.” Contents PAGE Foreword 4 Dedication 6 In Memoriam 7 Chapter T — Administration 9 Chapter II — Classes 21 Chapter III — Organizations 53 Chapter I — Athletics 85 Chapter ' Hi-Lights loi Chapter W — Advertisements iii School Index 129 Finis 136 Memory of Hoffman, Inskeep Cherished CLAUDE STANLEY HOFFMAN “Stuff” “ To live in hearts we leave behind is not to dieT’ Thomas Campbell January 2, 1937— July 6, 1954 SCA, I, 4, Chairman Ushers’ Committee, 4; President of Class, 2, 3, 4; Junior Dramatic Club, 2; Junior arsity Basketball, 2,3; Junior ' arsity Monogram Club, 3, 4, President, 3; Pan American Club,4; ' arsity Football, 4; Track, 4.

During this time she has given freely to the students of her time and patience. Mrs. Witt has been the adviser of the Dramatic Club for five years, during which time she directed at least two or more plays a year. Her interest and love of dramatics made it possible for the Dramatic Club to continue its good work. Not only for five years has Mrs. Witt directed the Dramatic Club but for that same number of years she has also been sponsor of the Freshman Class. It is with gratitude and appreciation that the Colonnade Staff dedicates this 1955 Colon- nade to Mrs. Gordon Witt. Teachers Promote Community Activities Principal James Combs and Assistant Principal Joseph Hafer, top left, extend their congratulations to Miss ' ir- ginia Lewis, the president-elect of the Virginia F.ducational Association. Mrs. William Houck and Miss Gertrude Lewis, top right, co-chairmen of the March of Dimes cam- paign, work on the tabulation report at the close of the .March of Dimes Drive. Mr. Joseph Hafer, bottom left, president of the Culpeper County Educational .Association, calls the meeting to order. .Mrs. J. O. Shepherd, bottom right, member of the English Faculty Committee, works on her reading chart for one of her classes. Both community and profession called on teachers for leadership and participation in many jobs besides classroom activities. Be- sides helping to conduct drives for Red Cross, C ' hristmas Seals, and Polio in the school, teach- ers are found constantly helping out in all the different parts of the community. For several years members of the faculty have been chair- men of the March of Dimes Drive in the com- munity. Faculty members can be found busy at work in such community organizations as the Jay- cees, Jayceettes, Lions Club, Business and Pro- fessional W omen’s Club, Rescue Squad, Fire- men, Rotary, PTA, A. UW , Ciarden Clubs, Churches, Reserves, and Ruritan. Faculty members of Culpeper High School headed both the local and the state professional organizations this year. .■{ 8 )?.- CHAPTER I “Mary and I would like to introduce to you the administrators and teachers. The ad- ministrators see that we have the proper studies in school and make sure our school is a good one. Besides teaching us ‘readin’, writin’, and ’rithmetic’ the teachers give us advice and help in our problems. A guidance committee, one member of which is in the guidance office each period, helps students with his or her problems. Members of the guidance com- mittee are not, however, the only teachers who help. All the members of the faculty are glad to help us when we need advice and someone to whom to talk. “The teachers go beyond the call of duty and assist with outside duties. There are one or more teachers who advise every club. They are in attendance at meetings in school, and also sponsor outside activities, such as dances, field trips, and convention trips. They chaperone dances, bus trips, and other school-sponsored events which students attend. You can see why Mary and I are proud of our teachers. Turn the following page and meet these teachers and friends.” 9 } Administrators Advance Student Welfare Mr. Raphael H.

The basic purpose of the high school is to train youth to become good citizens. The facul- ty and administration of Culpeper High School strive to achieve this purpose through an or- ganized program of classroom instruction and co-curric ular and extra-curricular activities. Through these media boys and girls at Cul- peper ffigh School acquire basic knowledge, skills, desirable traits, and appreciation that will help them in everyday living or further learning. Opportunity is present for developing abilities to read, to listen, to express one’s self in writing or orally, to use mathematics ac- curately, to make wise use of time, and to rec- ognize and solve problems. School experiences whether in traditional or informal class exer- cises, or in club programs and activity are de- signed to effectively meet the students’ needs. In order to graduate from Culpeper High School a student must have completed five years of secondary school work and must have acquired sixteen high school Carnegie units. Physical education and the eighth grade are required but do not give any Carnegie units. 16 K‘ Various Fields of Learning Mr. Charles Stringfellow, top, shows Mr. John Long, ' incent Haught, and Ralph Atkins the newest tractor on the market. Miss Nancy Giles, practice teacher from Madison College, bottom, helps Edna Carroll, homemaking student, baste her dress. Culpeper High School offers three courses: general, college preparatory, and commercial. Basic graduation requirements common to all three courses are four units of English, one of United States history, and one of senior civics. For students not planning to attend college the general course is the most valuable of the courses offered. Before completing the general course, a student must have two units of math- ematics, and one of science, in addition to the basic subjects required of all. For the remain- der of the sixteen necessary units he may choose from a wide variety of electives includ- ing home economics, agriculture, shop, art, music, Latin, Spanish, chemistry, physics, journalism, biology, algebra, geometry, trigo- nometry, world history, DE, DO, and com- mercial subjects — business arithmetic, short- hand, bookkeeping, and typing — provided there is sufficient room in these classes. Boys and girls electing DE and DO, which may be taken during the junior and senior years only, come to school each morning and take a class in distributive education or diver- sified occupations in addition to their required subjects and then work in town in the afternoon. For Future Leaders Jeanette Bledsoe and Benjamin Brown, top, do practice work on the new office equipment, the dictaphone. Mrs. Howard McCall, bottom, instructs students Shirley Whit- lock, Duane Dibble, Linda Guinn, and Betty Hitt on the use of the different ledgers in bookkeeping. The commercial cou rse was planned for stu- dents desiring to do secretarial or commercial work. Boys and girls who enroll in this course must have the ability to think clearly, and to do careful, accurate, and speedy work. Some Cul- peper High School graduates begin their full- time office work immediately after completing their high school commercial course; others prefer to further their skill by additional train- ing in a secretarial school or college. A student taking the commercial course must meet the basic graduation requirements common to all courses, he must have two units of mathematics including business arithmetic, and one of science, and he must complete the following commercial subjects: general busi- ness, office practice. Shorthand I and II, Typ- ing I and II, bookkeeping, and office practice. Many who take the commercial course do part-time work in various businesses during their last year of high school. This work pro- gram, designed to help students “learn by doing” is a part of the office practice class and is supervised by the office practice instructor. • ■{ 18 )■ Of America Miss Laura Thornhill, top, shows Latin students Sarah Willis, Donna Callahan, Virginia Parker, Cherry Gorham, and Ann Rawlings, the picture of Venus de Milo which was presented to the school. Algebra students, bottom, Alexan- der Swan, Sarah Willis, Joyce Tutwiler, Jacquelin Coff- man, and Frederic Brault listen with attentive interest as Miss Margaret Brown explains the problem. Students planning to attend college follow the course of study known as the college pre- paratory course. Culpeper High School’s offering in this course is sufficiently broad to enable its gradu- ates to meet the entrance requirements of any college. Since entrance requirements for the various colleges differ somewhat, it is well for a college-bound student to decide upon a college as early as his sophomore year so that he can choose those subjects which will prepare him to enter the specific school of his choice. Only those students making “A”, “B”, or “C” grades are recommended for college. The college preparatory student must take the English, United States history, and civics required of all. fie must also have two units of algebra, one of plane geometry, and two of science. To complete his sixteen units for grad- uation he should choose from the following list of courses: Latin, Spanish, chemistry, physics, world history, solid geometry, trigonometry, and typing. In choosing he should be guided by the entrance requirements of the college he plans to attend. 19 Employees Advance School Program BUS DRIVERS Front row: J. Hawkins, T. Settle. Second row: V.

We go to- gether to club meetings, assemblies, frequent the library and attend six classes and study hall. We are constantly with friends whether it be in clubs, in the lunch or candy line, or riding the buses to school. Our friendship does not lapse when 3:15 comes, for we also see each other at school dances, football and basketball games, band concerts, and other outside activi- ties organized for us. “Styles come and go. This year we acquired the short hair cuts for the girls. Of course, I got one. The duck hair cuts made the boys com- plete as you can see by Johnny. The boys be- gan wearing pink shirts with charcoal pants and pink ties and socks to match. Knee length socks and long beads became a big thing with the girls. Both boys and girls became interested in pastel sweaters. We all strove to keep up with new styles. “Come on and follow us and meetour friends.” [ 21 }■- - Ir. F. Binns, P. Dulin, J. Bledsoe, M.

These organizations provide Mary and me an opportunity to learn leadership, respon- sibility, and the knowledge of parliamentary procedure. We have a special period each day in which the different clubs meet. This is a thirty-minute period just after lunch knowm to us at CHS as Activity Period. To insure a well- rounded program in which every student may participate, 27 clubs have been formed. Stu- dents interested in writing may join the Peper- gram Staff, the school paper, or the Colon- nade Staff, the school yearbook. For students interested in the vocational subjects there are FFA, FHA, DO Club, Distributors’ Club, and FBLA. Clubs for students who are gifted in the arts include the Art Club, the Glee Clubs, Dramatic Clubs, and Band. “All these different clubs contribute to the growth and development of students at CHS. There is at least one teacher in charge of each club, so therefore students become better ac- quainted with their teachers and classmates. XIary and I thoroughly enjoy the time and energy given these clubs and have profited from them. While looking through the next chapter note the varied activities of the clubs.” 4 P Presidents Guide Club Activities Top row: B. Brown, R. Brown, J. Burke, B. Carpenter, Griffin, J. Haught, E.

An Activity Schedule was prepared, which gave each club a certain day during the month for their meeting. All of the major organizations had at least one starred meeting a month from which no members were excused if they w ' ere at school. Many of the twenty-four organizations gave dances, parties, or banquets during the year. The cafeteria was the favorite place for these functions as it was easy to decorate and con- venient to the kitchen. 4 . 51 Front rou;: S. Edwards, A. Griffin, M. Haverstock, M. White, A. Coveil, Fi.

SCA Entertains District Assembly President . Secretary T re as u rer . . A dviser Barbara Dulix Maxine Kilby Joseph Korte Miss ' irgixia Lewis Led by Barbara Dulin, the Culpeper SCA entertained the Fredericksburg District SCA on November 15 for its annual meeting. Losing as its theme, “Your Reputation — Good or Bad”, the group discussed the topic as it re- lated to the school, community, and vocation. Representatives from King George, Spotsyl- vania, Stafford, Fredericksburg, Caroline, and Culpeper were present at the meeting. As host, Culpeper was responsible for making preparations for the meeting. Students in charge of the various committees were: Hos- pitality, Maxine Kilby; Registration, Joe Korte; Lunch, Mary Lee Thompson; Ushers, Rodger Printz; Traffic, Charles Chilton. Seven delegates attended the meeting from this school. However, all council members were excused from several classes during the morn- ing to hear the keynote speech. The SCA, with the Alumni Association, co- sponsored the Homecoming celebration, which was held November 6-7. On Friday afternoon. November 6, a gala parade was held with all of the clubs and some homerooms entering floats. Judges awarded first place to the FBLA and second place to Homeroom 26. The Pepergram and 4-H Club floats won honorable mention. That night an exciting football game be- tween Culpeper and Manchester was played. During halftime, Susan Hall was crowned Homecoming Queen by Mr. Everett Kerrick, President of the Alumni Association. Maxine Kilby, Barbara Spilman, Hazel Mills, Peggy Dulin, and Frances Kibler were attendants to the queen. Climaxing the festivities was an alumni meeting on Saturday, November 7, at which time the Class of 1919 was honored. Miss Mary George Bolen, librarian at CHS and a member of the Class of 1919, gave the class history at this gathering. Officers for 1954-55 were installed in a cere- mony on September 25. Mr. Giles Miller, speaker for the occasion, based his remarks on three words — listen, think, and act. He stressed the importance of being sure of what one hears, thinking for oneself, and then acting. A discussion of “ our Reputation — Good or Bad” was presented at a regular school as- sembly with Barbara Dulin, Randolph Aylor, Barbara Jean King, Fannie Haught, Rodger Printz, and Beverley Carpenter serving on the panel. Miss irginia Lewis, sponsor of the SCA, acted as moderator. Following comments by the panelists, the discussion was opened to the entire student body. Several students asked questions at that time or gave their opinions on various matters. Numerous warning notices were presented to “delinquent” parents who were caught break- ing school rules on Parents’ Night, November II. This event is sponsored annually by the SCA in order to give the parents a better under- � ■( standing of their child’s classes and activities at school. The students themselves took over the gov- ernment of the town for one day early in the spring. The members of the student body chose a youth mayor and eight councilmen, who in turn, appointed the other officers. On this day one youth worked with each adult town official in order to learn more about their respective duties. The youth councilmen were put on committees corresponding to actual committees of the town council. The youth council also met with the adult town council and offered recommendations for new ordinan- ces based on various conditions they had ob- served during their term of office. They also voted on all bills brought before the Council that night, although their vote did not count. For the first time, the SCA placed flowers in all the rooms on the first day of school. ' I’he bulletin board was also decorated by this or- ganization at the beginning of the school year. Joseph Korte, Kathleen Yancey, and Maxine Kilby attended the Miller and Rhoads and Nezv York Herald Tribune Youth Forum in Richmond on February 12 as delegates from this school. The purpose of this forum was to discuss international youth problems with foreign students. During the 1954 summer, “The Gui de,” the school handbook, with Beverley Carpenter and Ylaxine Kilby as co-editors, was revised and a copy was presented to each student at the beginning of school. This book contains the school rules and regulations, curriculum, ac- tivities, and traditions. CHAIRMEN OF COMMITTEES Jacquelin Bragg Barbara King Susan Hall LeRoy Baumgardner . .

Borst ' s Colonnade Annexes State Award Ann Griffin Margaret Harding Miss Mary George Bolen Mrs. William Houck Mr. W oodrow Favre j ' . . . Editor-in-Chief Business Manager A dviser Assistant Advisers The 1955 Colonnade staff, headed by Ann Griffin, editor-in-chief, began work on the yearbook early in the school year. The goal of the staff was to have their book equal the prize-winning Colonnades of the past. The ’53 Colonnade, edited by Page Borst, won second place at the Southern Interscholastic Press Association meeting, losing the first- place trophy to Front Royal by twenty-five points. However, the book won a first-place rating. The same Colonnade won the Virginia High School Literary and Athletic Award for that year. The staff was determined to live up to the good reputation earned by the yearbooks of previous years. The theme and color of the book was known only to the editor and adviser until Class Day, when the books were distributed to the students. The lovely book proved that .Vnn’s time and effort had been well spent. Assisting Ann in many ways was Margaret Harding, business manager. She was kept busy setting up the budget and keeping a record of all expenditures and income. On top of her other duties, Margaret also served as the general head of the advertising and circulation of the yearbook. Jesse Yowell, class editor, was responsible for seeing that all students had their picture taken. Collecting senior information was another of his jobs. Beverley Carpenter had to compile information about each organiza- tion’s activities for her section. Accompanied by a staff photographer, Patricia Kilby was seen at all of the sports events taking notes and seeing that pictures of all important plays were taken. Stuart Colvin was busy gathering informa- tion and securing pictures of school events. Organizing and alphabetizing the index was the responsibility of Joan Moore. The advertising staff, headed by Alex Swan, sold twenty pages of ads for the ’55 yearbook. This group spent one school day in town getting ads and also worked during much of their spare time. Elizabeth Feaganes and her circulation staff began selling subscriptions in September. Through their efforts, 565 books were sold. Under the leadership of .Mary Peters and supervised by Mrs. W. A. Houck, - ■1 61 )■ the typists gave unlimited help to the year- book staff. Their work was essential to the publication of the Colonnade as all of the articles had to be typed several times. Delegates from the Colonnade staff once again journeyed to Lexington to SIPA, April 29-30. At the convention, the 1954 yearbook was judged and comments and suggestions were made to the staff for its improvement. Miss Mary George Bolen, Ann Griffin, Joan Moore, Alexander Swan, and Kenneth Dobyns represented the staff. The annual Colonnade banquet was held on Alay 26 in the school cafeteria. At that time, the staff members received their books before the general circulation the next day. The person to whom the yearbook was ded- icated was announced at the banquet. Repeating an annual custom of having as guests the president and adviser of one of the school organizations, the Dramatic Clubs’ sponsors and presidents were invited.

Pepergram Initiates K. thleen Yancey - uDREY CoVELL Betty Norris Shirley Stultz -Miss Gertrude Lewis April Poors Issue Co-Editors Business Manager Circulation Manager .4 dviser On April i the Pepergram staff delighted the student body with the inauguration of its first April Fool’s issue. In this issue the feature and sports pages consisted of satirical and ex- agerated “April Fool” articles. Parts of the articles were printed upside down and side- ways; while a few sections remained in the correct style. The main news story invisioned steak for lunch, a lounge for the students and free refreshments served on the luxurious school buses. Other articles described weird fashions and the Olympic Council’s trip to the Colosseum in Rome. Other items appearing for the first time in the 1954-55 Pepergram were “Alumni Corner,” “Spotlight,” a column recognizing outstanding students, and cartoons. “Pepper Patter” and “Etta Kett” were revived and again appeared in the paper. For the first time, the staff had a speaker for one of its regular meetings. Mr. Walter Potter, editor of the Culpeper Star-Exponent, talked to the group at their March meeting on “Job Opportunities in Newspaper Work.” He told of the various jobs available in journalistic work and of the increasing interest in the advertising field. “Anyone interested in enter- ing newspaper work should start on a small paper,” Mr. Potter stated. He explained that a person would learn more about the newspaper from all angles by beginning at the bottom and working his way up. Miss Gertrude Lewis, adviser, together with four staff members, Betty Hundley, Betty Troxell, Cherry Gorham, and Audiey Covell, attended the Southern Interscholastic Press Association meeting on April 29, 30. This meeting is held annually at W ashington and Lee University in Lexington, a. At this meet- ing, the Pepergram is judged in competition with papers from schools in all the southern states and the District of Columbia. For its bulletin board display, the Pepergram exhibited many of the columns and news artic- les that had been previously published in the paper. Honorable mention was awarded to the staff’s float in the Homecoming Parade. During the spring the co-editors attended a meeting of the Culpeper Rotary Club. They explained to the group the work that the staff had done in order to publish the paper. By exchanging papers with 34 other schools, the Pepergram Staff secured ideas for articles and also learned about activities that are being carried on at other schools. I I •■( ■ ' )() )■ The Pepergra?n, a tri-weekly newspaper, was published twelve times during the school year 1954- 5. This included the senior issue which was the last one published for the year. This edition, which was devoted almost entirely to the senior class, contained the class prophecy and last will and testament. Individual pic- tures of the class members consumed part of the extra page, which was added for this special issue. The class officers and other im- portant seniors were featured in this last paper. d ' he budget for the year was } i,200, which was met by money obtained from subscriptions and advertisements. By selling i , i 24 inches of advertisements, the advertising staff set a new record for the largest number of inches of ads ever sold. The total circulation for the year was 678. This amount was divided as follows: exchange papers, 34; activity ticket, 500; schools, 6; advertisers, 55; individual copies sold, 20; and other subscriptions, 63. EDITORl.

The Thespians presented a one-act play, “Sunday’s Child,” in the area play festival held at Orange High School on February ' 26. The cast of characters included the following: Herbert Fox, preacher; Paul Baldwin, W indy ' ; Sheldon Marvin, Zack; Mary Peters, Betsy; Cherry ' Gorham, Mrs. Wells; and Martha Haverstock, Debbie. Dramatists from Cul- peper competed with groups from Albemarle, James Monroe, King George, Louisa, Orange, Rappahannock, Spotsy ' lvania, and Stafford high sc hools in the contest. Play ' s that re- ceived a distinguished rating were eligible to compete in the State Play Festival. The play ' was presented as an assembly ' program on March 9. Using as its theme “The Tragedy of Alan- chester, ” the club presented a float in the Homecoming Parade depicting scenes from “Macbeth” and “Julius Caesar.” 4 58 Front row: Miss M. Jones, J.

Love In Bloom Amuses Students Genevieve Edwards President Barbara Ross Vice President Elizabeth Corbin Secretary John Willis Treasurer Miss Mildred Jones Adviser Entertaining the school at an assembly pro- gram on February 4, the Junior Dramatic Club presented “Love in Bloom”. The her- oine, who is a pretty high school girl, decides that she is in love with her English teacher, Professor Warren. Unfortunately her mother is also in love with the professor, and they have become engaged. In spite of persuasion to the contrary by Aunt Judith, Airs. Hamilton, a charming widow, decides to break her engage- ment rather than break her daughter’s heart. Through a clever bit of acting Professor War- ren manages to change Cynthia’s mind, and she leaves happy with her high school pals. The cast of characters was as follows: Aunt Judith, Barbara Rixey; Alollie, the maid, Bar- bara Lipscomb; Cynthia, Genevieve Edwards; Joe Gunter, Ronald Clatterbuck; Hal Merrit, Michael Nelson; Belle Comers, Terry Botts; Mrs. Hamilton, Ann Clark; and Professor Warren, John Willis. Barbara Rixey took the part of Aunt Judith on two hours notice, after the person who originally had the role lost her voice. Working on the play as a club project pro- vided the cast with valuable acting experience as well as giving to other members of the club experience in learning the technique of make- up and securing props. The Junior Dramatic Club is composed of students from the eighth and ninth grades who are interested in dramatics as a hobby. Learn- ing the fundamentals of play presentation and acting is the aim of the members of the club. By participating in the Junior Club’s activities, students gained practical experience which will prove of value when they become members of the Senior Dramatic Club. 4 , 59 }[ • Fi ' st row: M.

Junior Choristers Acquire New Adviser Cecelia erxox . . . . Paula Hawkins Rebecca Stinnett. , . Mr. Walter Thomas President .... I ice President Secretary- Treasurer Adviser Under the leadership of Mr. Walter Thomas the Junior Glee Club met every Thursday in the cafeteria. The 65-member organization was the only music organization not meeting in a regular class session. Members of the club were divided into three voice groups: soprano, alto, and bass. As junior choristers they worked on developing their voices and acquiring better knowledge of choral singing for future work in the Glee Club. Technical pointers were stressed in the prac- tice sessions. The group worked on the shading of tones, enunciation, good vowels, and clarity. Important facts such as learning to follow the technical points of the director and getting the meaning of music from the word content were also stressed. Since teamwork and co-opera- tion are essential in a choral group, the Junior (jlee Club tried to develop these in their re- lationship in the club. During the year the members worked on such numbers as “.My Task,” “Donna Nobis Pacem,” and several Christmas carols. Dem- onstrating their skill in piano playing, Judith Kinzer and Elizabeth Burton served as ac- companists, while the group consisting of eighth and ninth graders listened attentively. The girls alternated as pianists, so that both could gain experience in accompanying a choral group. For the District Choral Music Festival held in Falls Church, March 12, the Junior Glee Club sent Ellen Mac Mahon to sing “Let My Song Fill Your Heart” and Judith Myers to sing “Awake.” Both of these girls are voice students under Mrs. Marjorie H. Warren, County Supervisor of Music and local piano and voice teacher. The group did not giv ' e a public performance as the director did not feel that they had had enough training. As most of the time was de- voted to teaching fundamentals, the group did not have sufficient time to work on numbers suitable for a concert. The Junior (dee Club served as a training class for the senior club. By emphasizing the fundamentals of singing, the director hoped to better prepare the group for advanced work in the senior organization. i I i I •G( GO Senior Chorus Presents First Pageant The Glee Club presented its first Christmas pageant on Sunday, December 19. An infor- mal concert, presented by the (jlee Club, pre- ceded the pageant. Selections at the performance included “Madam Jeanette,” “One God,” “Winter Wonderland,” “White Christmas,” and “Frosty the Snowman.” That part of the pageant was concluded with a choral ver- sion of the 23rd Psalm, “The Lord Is My Shep- herd.” Accompanied by Ann Rawlings, Donna Callahan sang “I Wonder as I Wander.” Linda O’Neal sang “There’s a Song in the Air, ” and a girls quartet consisting of Maxine Kilby, Kathleen Harlow, Patricia Kilby, and Beverley Carpenter sang “Silver Bells.” Emily Lou Rogers inspired the audience with her lovely rendition of “Little Baby Jesus.” Background music for the pageant, which was sung by the Glee Club, consisted of most of the well-known Christmas carols. Narrated by Maxine Kilby, the nativity story “Darius, The Hunchback Boy, ” was directed by Mrs. FTank- lin Rosson and acted in pantomime by mem- bers of her eighth grade homeroom. The Glee Club performed at the Alumni Barb.a ra Spilman Maxine Kilby Emily Rogers Patricia Kilby Mr. W.vlter Thomas Association meeting, November 6, during the Homecoming festivities. The Choristers also entertained at the District SCA meeting, which was held at Culpeper High School, November Lv The Glee Club presented an interesting and entertaining assembly program on January 6. The highlight of the program was a novelty number, “I Get So Lonely,” sung by all the boys in the club. For the second year, the choristers performed at the annual Farmers’ Co-Operative Associa- tion meeting in January. “My Task” and “Man W ith A Banjo” were among the selec- tions rendered at that time. Several selections were sung by the Glee Club at the Fredericks- burg District PTA meeting, which was in Cul- peper March 23. The 57-member Glee Club journeyed to Falls Church on March 12 to participate in the Dis- trict Choral Music Festival. Accompanied by Sarah Willis, the Club was judged on its two selections, “Begin The Beguine” and “Ma- dame Jeanette.” Donna Callahan sang in the individual competition.

FHA Holds Annual Banquet Barbara Clatterbuck President Ellen Speidex f ’ice President Shelby Myers Secretary Rose Mooney Treasurer Frances McDowell Reporter Miss K.vtherine Habel Adviser Highlighting the 1954-55 FHA year was the annual FHA-FFA banquet, given on February 2, in the school cafeteria. The Future Home- makers combined their efforts with the FFA in giving this banquet to honor their parents. The entire meal was prepared by the FHA. Catherine Carter directed the eighth grade girls in serving the banquet. Following a review of the year’s accomplishments by Ellen Speiden, Barbara Clatterbuck presented twenty-eight members with their pins, guards, certificates, and seals. Mr. flugh Cassell, superintendent of Augusta County Schools, was the speaker for the occasion. Using as his theme the words of Norman ’incent Peale, Mr. Cassell told the students to, “Think peacefully, think positively, and think joy- fully.” The club members feel that they gained valuable experience by giving many teas and parties. The first of these was a series of parties given for the eighth-grade girls to acquaint them with the club. October featured the annual tea for the faculty and club presidents. Over punch and cookies the guests mingled, and the newteachers and students became friends. Punch and cookies also were on the scene at the tea for the Career Day guests in Feb- ruary. Also during February, the club was hostess to Mrs. Rose Loving, the head of the State Department of Home Economics and Mr. Frank Cale, head of the ’ocation Depart- ment of irginia. Luncheon was served to these guests. The h HA took an active part in school- sponsored activities, including a float in the Homecoming parade. The club officers rode on the float in their newly completed white uniforms, and carried red roses, displaying the theme, “Culpeper Will Bloom Tonight As It Did In 1919.” Ada Lake, representing • 6( C2 )3 - the Homemakers in the Homecoming Queen contest, was in the final ten contestants. FHA week was celebrated during the second week of November. A bulletin board and school assembly were included in the events of this week. The assembly on Friday, the climax of the week, featured the official FHA emblem service. This service explained the goals and purposes of the club. Barbara Clatterbuck announced that the club would plant a red rose bush, the FHA flower, on the campus in the spring. Christmas brought a busy time to this organization. The Hobby Lobby Shop opened its doors to Christmas shoppers in the Home- making Department . This shop offered everything from aprons to dolls in the way of handmade gifts. Ellen Speiden and Catherine Carter were in charge of this shop. The needy were not forgotten, for a large basket was filled with gifts, food, and clothes. One of the goals of the Future Homemakers was to compare their work with the work of others in order to improve and get new ideas, and work on their motto, “Toward New Horizons.” For this purpose, each girl was asked to make an entry in the Culpeper Farm Show in September. Also the club attended the Atlantic Rural Exposition. The girls looked at the exhibits with the question of what they could enter next year. Exchange of ideas was also one of the im- portant purposes of Spring Rally of the Federation of Culpeper, Madison, and Orange, CMO Trio, which was held at Madison High School March 30. d’he theme of the rally was recreation and much time was spent in training the girls to lead recreational activities. The FHA “Girl of the Week” was chosen from this chapter as an outstanding member from the Northern Virginia District to be interviewed on television and radio. Spring fashions were on parade at the FHA fashion show. Each girl modeled an outfit she had made. Officers for the coming year were elected and installed in May. In this club, the girls work for degrees of achievement. Many girls received these awards, including the Junior Homemakers, Chapter, and State Homemakers degrees. In working for these degrees the girls kept con- stantly before them the FHA creed: “We are the Future Homemakers of America, We face the future with warm courage, and high hopes. For we have the clear consciousness of seeking Old and precious values. For we are the builders of homes, Homes for America’s future; Homes where living will be the expression of everything That is good and fair; Homes where truth and love and security and faith Will be realities, not dreams. We are the Future Homemakers of America, We face the future with warm courage and high hopes.” Miss K. Habel, S. Myers, E. Speiden, B. Clatterbuck, F. Hensley, R. Mooney, F.

FBLA Takes Part Joyce Hilton Benjamin Brown Shirley Stultz Jane Amos Kathryn W ilson Mrs. W ' illi.am Houck ] Mrs. Howard McCall Miss Margaret Massey J “Do you prefer that your office workers wear hose. Do you object to sport shirts for office wear. How much does personal ap- pearance affect your decision in hiring and promoting employees. ” FBLA members found the answers to these and many other questions when they made a survey of the likes and dislikes of Culpeper employers. A similar survey was conducted by all FBLA Chapters in Mrginia. Service, education, and progress are aims of FBLA. With these in mind, “Better FBLA Chapters Build Better Schools, Better Schools Build a Better W orld” was chosen the year’s theme. Each activity was planned to strengthen FBL.V, school, and community. Shirley Stultz and Audrey Printz prepared bulletin board displays early in the year to arouse interest of new students. Benjamin Brown, Barbara Clatterbuck, and Joyce Hilton led the recreation at a social for new members October 20. The Culpeper Chapter, in order to promote In National Survey President J ice President Second f ’ice President Secretary Treasurer ddvisers FBLA in other schools, was host to b usiness students and teachers from Orange, Madison, and Remington. Activities crowded November and December — the Homecoming parade in which the FBLA float won first-place trophy, spelling contest with businessmen in which the students emerged victorious, speeches by Mr. W ' . Favre, Mrs. J. Garr, and Audrey, and the making and the sale of work-sock monkeys, washcloth dogs, button and rickrack earrings, and yarn dogs. January, February, and March brought local and regional contests. Margaret Harding, Madison Region vice president, entered public speaking; Fannie Butler, spelling; Benjamin and Margaret were Mr. and Miss FBLA Executive; Betty Norris, .Audrey, and Jane Weaver prepared the bulletin board. Culpeper FBL.A’ers, with 65 other chapters, enjoyed the State Convention in Richmond April 22 and 23 and learned state-wide results of the personal appearance survey. •� j( (i t )•«■ Safety Cou ncil Repeats Annual Trip Climaxing its activities for the year, the Safety Council journeyed to Washington, D. C., to take part in the Safety Council Parade. The trip marked the third year that the council had participated in the parade, which is sponsored by the American Automo- bile Association every spring. Each year hundreds of school patrolmen from W ashington and adjoining areas march in this colorful parade down Pennsylvania Avenue. Trying to make CHS a safer place kept the patrolmen busy at all times. These students had the responsibility of seeing that no traffic went by while the pupils crossed the roads, were in charge of keeping order on the buses, and tried to uphold safety laws. Not only did they try to set a good example by obeying safety rules, but they encouraged other students to do the same. In the late spring the club attended a major league baseball game in Washington. The patrolmen looked forward to this occasion with eagerness throughout the year. Safety posters were put on all buses to remind the students of the necessity of practic- ing safety at all times. As safety at school is also essential, the Council made posters on safety and placed them on the stairway landings at school. The Safety Council was in charge of patrol- ing the route for the Homecoming Parade. This service made it safer for all students participating in the celebration. Under the supervision of their adviser, Mr. Bobby Walker, the Council met the second Tuesday in each month. At these meetings the members were brought up-to- date on new safety rules and regulations. In order to earn money for the club, the members sold candy and cookies in the cafeteria. The Safety Council ended the year by holding a dance in May for the members and their guests.

Scientists Explore Varied Fields Stuart Colvin President Marylee Newman Pice President Jesse Yowell Secretary Richard Bayne Treasurer Bradford Smith Reporter W ILLIAM Browning Librarian Miss ' irginia Lewis Adviser Members of the Science Club were divided into different committees according to their individual interests. Committees were set up to study photography, electronics, wildlife, mineralogy, and meteorology. At each of the club’s regular meetings, held on the second Wednesday of each month, one committee was in charge of the program. At the first meeting of the year the physics class demonstrated the power of air pressure by the use of the Magdeburg hemispheres. The Wildlife Committee showed the group how’ to use a trajectory chart. An open dis- cussion on hunting and fishing methods used, rules, and different kinds of game and fish was held at that time. In November the Electronics Committee took the club to the radio station. The engineer explained the teletype, transmitter, conalrad, and other electrical equipment to the group. The mineralogy and meteorology committees gave talks and demonstrations on rocks and minerals. A demonstration of how the chemicals in film reacted in contact with the developer and hypo was presented by the Photography Com- mittee. During the meeting the club members enjoyed the discussion that was held on three dimensional movies. The filming and pro- jecting of the movies was explained and the different phases of the medium were discussed. The group decided not to have a Science Club Fair during the year but to hold it the next year. The fair would be much larger than the last one and the seniors would be eligible to bring their projects to be exhibited. In place of the fair, the members devoted their time to intense emphasis on individual proj- ects relating to their respective interests. Members of the Science Club include students in the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades who are interested in science. In some cases ninth graders are permitted to join. 4 K- Art Club Joins Virginia Museum Among the Art Club’s first activities was joining the ' irginia Museum. By belonging to this group, the club received exhibits from the Museum during the year. The colored wood blocks by Ross Abrams were displayed in the cafeteria for the enjoyment of the students. These paintings weie studied by the students in the art classes so that they could gain a greater appreciation for that type of art. Late in the spring the club journeyed to Richmond to visit the ’irginia Museum. By drawing posters for school and com- munity organizations, the Art Club earned money which was used to carry out its various projects. Although this was the Art Club’s second year in existence, it is the first year it has been represented in the Colonnade because it was not organized until late in the school year, 1953-1954- Organized under the leadership of Airs. Judson Baldwin, the club members worked to promote their purpose which was “to bring about a better appreciation of the classic art to the students, and to impress upon them the beauty and inspiration found in the expression of others.’’ Membership was open to any art student who made C or above, to any former art student who made C or better on his work, and to eighth graders and transfer students who could pass a try-out test. Using as its motto, Ars Gratia Artis, “Art For the Sake of Art’’, the club held regular meetings on the first and third Thursdays of each month. Colorful posters were placed in the cafeteria concerning eating habits. These posters en- courage the students to use good manners in the cafeteria and not to substitute ice cream for a good substantial lunch. The Art Club sponsored a candidate for Homecoming Queen and also entered a float in the parade. Although it did not win a prize it received several favorable comments. Next year the club plans to have pins for its members. The design will consist of the letter “A” with several brushes through the center of it. President Pice President Secretary Treasurer . .

Pice President Secretary Treasurer 4 dviser Climaxing its activities for the year, the Pan American Club celebrated Pan American Week, April 18-23, emphasizing Mexico. During the week mottoes on homeroom boards, the menu, and grace were all in Spanish. On Tuesday, April 19, a Mexican game was played during intermural sports. A Spanish dinner, which was prepared and served by Spanish I students, was given for the club members on Thursday night. A program in the form of a T talent show was presented in assembly on Friday with talent representing each of the Pan American countries. That night the club sponsored a dance for the entire student body in the cafeteria. Other activities during the week included exhibits in stores and at school, a radio program featuring music of both the Americas, and articles in the newspaper about Latin American countries. A model of the Pan American Union was also constructed and the purpose of this organization was discussed. At Christmastime, the Spanish students made Christmas cards with Spanish verses on them and sang Christmas carols in Spanish. pinata, which is the Spanish Nativity scene, was also constructed. Making booklets on Latin American countries was the chief project of the senior club. In order to make these booklets, the pupils had to write letters in Spanish to Pan American countries asking for information about the country. The junior club gave book reviews on Spanish background materials. Except for explanations about the work, Spanish was spoken at all times during regular class sessions. Both the junior and senior club meetings were conducted in Spanish throughout the year. This was done so that the students would become accustomed to speaking Spanish. Bingo and lotto were played in Spanish in order to learn to use numbers and to increase the vocabulary of the pupils. Twenty students took the Virginia Modern Foreign Language Tournament test on March 29. Several scholarships were awarded to seniors in the state who received outstanding grades on the examination. A Spanish Gypsy Picnic was held in May, at which time the officers for the ensuing year were installed. - j ( ()8 Tournament Draws Six Top Rankers Throughout the year the Latin students worked toward the goal of representing their club in the Latin Tournament at the Univer- sity of ' irginia. Attending this contest is quite an honor, as only the most outstanding students are chosen to go. The final results showed Kenneth Dobyns representing Latin II; Christine Haught, Mary Hall, Alarylee Newman, Barbara Ross, and Linda Sudduth represented the Latin I class. Students earning a grade of 85 or above on the examination, received a certificate of merit for their achieve- ment. Latin week was observed at CHS April 11-16. Among the week’s activities were an assembly, a bulletin board display, and the Latin Tournament. Composed of second-year Latin students, the 1954-55 club boasted fourteen members. Using as its motto, “Labor omnia vincit,” Labor conquers all, the council met during the regular Latin II class period on the first Friday in each month. During the meetings plans were made for activities later in the year. Programs on interesting phases of Roman life were presented after the business session. The Olympic Council presented an enlarged color picture of enus de Milo to the school in February which was displayed in the library. This picture was taken of the actual statue in the Louvre at Paris, France, by Miss Marian West. Aliss W est, who teaches Latin at St. Catherine’s in Richmond, Virginia, accompanied Miss Laura Thornhill on her trip abroad in the summer of 1953. The Council is also planning to present a scrap- book dealing with classical Latin to the school. “Thumbs down to Alanchester” was the theme of the float entered in the Homecoming parade. The float was a scene of gladiators in the Colosseum. Junior Classical League pins and plasticoat book covers were purchased by the Olympic Council members. A picnic was held at the Country Club in May. This festive occasion was enjoyed by all the members of the club. Jay Geest was elected Aedile in February, when Mary Thom White moved to Richmond.

Sims Tops District In Judging Betty Xorris Roger Myers Lenora Sims Barbar, Myers Mr. oodrow Favre President I’ ice President Secretary .... Treasurer A dviser The entire DE club attended the Northern Area Convention in Washington, D. C., February 23. At this convention three CHS students competed in contests. Lenora Sims won first place in judging a window display. By receiving this honor, she competed with contestants from all over the state at the State Convention in Richmond, ' irginia. Other contestants at the area convention were Betty Xorris, who entered the “Judging the Job Interview” contest, and John Hunt, who participated in the contest for judging the Sales Demonstration. The Distributors’ Club presented an as- sembly on Friday, December 10. The program consisted of various comical skits portraying the DE members at their respective jobs. Paul Carder and Roger Myers enacted a scene concerning the fact that Fred’s Food Market was surrounded by Newberry’s. John James shocked his customer, Frances Barfield, with his meat cutting methods. Frances also acted in a skit with Robert Corder, who was riding the tricycle that he was trying to sell. James Bache acted the part of a man selling a liquid “cure-all” until Bernard Crane, posing as Sgt. Joe Friday, discovered the illegal vendor. Repeating an annual custom the Dis- tributors’ Club held an Employer-Employee Banquet. Held in the school cafeteria, the dinner was enjoyed by all who attended. Under the guidance of their sponsor, Mr. Woodrow Favre, the club members strove to learn more about the field of distribution and to acquire training in it. W ith this knowledge and training, the students became better qualified to hold responsible jobs in the busi- ness world. The club sent one delegate to the State Convention in Richmond, in addition to Lenora Sims. The DE members also entered a float in the Homecoming Parade. In order to become a member of the Dis- tributors’ Club, a student must be a junior or senior in high school, be a member of the distributive education class, and work an average of fifteen hours a week. 70 K Businesses Draw Eleven Students Learning by experience was the idea put into practice by the members of the Div ' ersified Occupation Club at CHS. The members were employed by various business firms in Culpeper. Members of the club were from both the junior and senior classes. The students at- tended school half a day or all day and then worked in the afternoon. Pupils attending school only half a day took required subjects such as English and social studies. The regular DO class, taught by Mr. Shirley Broyles, met during the first period of each day. The class counted one credit and the job of working in a business firm counted one credit. Therefore, each member of the DO Club earned two credits for graduation by taking this class. The student workers were paid for their work just as any other employees are. Students employed in local firms were Randolph Brown, Brown-Marean Lumber Company; LeRoy Baumgardner, Woody’s Service Station; Thomas Jenkins, Farm Bureau; James Kibler, Kibler’s Garage; Wayne Pycha, Hoffman Implement Service; George Bryson, Baby Jim’s Snack Bar; Alvin Wilson, Culpeper Planing Mill; Aubrey Johnson, Clore-Williams l )ntiac Company and Robert WOolfrey, Moscarella’s Garage. Emmett Martin and Harold Pritt served as plumbing and car- penter assistants, respectively. Delegates from the Culpeper Chapter at- tended the State DO Convention on April 4 and 5, held at Hotel Roanoke, Roanoke, Virginia. This meeting was the highlight of the 1954-55 year. The purpose of the DO Club is to provide activities for students enrolled in the Diversi- fied Occupations class. The DO Club com- pleted its ninth year of existence at CHS in June, 1955. The organization, which was affiliated with the Diversified Occupation Clubs of Virginia, held its meetings once a month during class period. In addition to its other activities the DO Club decorated a car for the Homecoming Parade. By getting work training in the DO Club, the members found out about conditions they would face when they went out into the world to make a living. Through Diversified Occupa- tion, the students found it possible for them to meet the public and get a good start in the business world.

Librarians Present Book Week Play Audrey Printz Jaquelin Bragg Shelby Myers Miss Mary George Bolen. . . In observance of National Book eek, No- vember 15-19, the Library Club presented a play for assembly, November 19. The play- entitled, “Books Speak Their Piece” depicted various books telling woeful tales of how they had been mistreated by their owners. The cast included Alexander Swan, “ Caesar”; Richard Robson, “Macbeth”; Winfrey Gore, “I van- hoe”; Barbara King, “Dictionary”; Barbara Ross, “American Poetry”; Marion White, “Alice in Wonderland”; Joyce Printz, “Joan of Arc”; Robert Myers, “Legend of Sleepy- Hollow”; Frederic Brault, “David Copper- field”; Constance White, “Macgruder”; and Shelby My-ers, maid. By presenting a program of this type, the group hoped to encourage stu- dents to take better care of not only the books in the school library-, but their personal books as w-ell. Throughout the year, two bulletin boards are maintained in the library- by this organiza- tion. On one are such items as scholarships or contests in w-hich students may compete, an assembly schedule, and the cafeteria menu for the w ' eek. The other displays information about books of various kinds that may be found in the library. Phoebe Brown w-as in charge of the bulletin boards during the first semester. Joan Smith and Sarah Hitt were co- chairmen for the second term. President Vice President Secretary-Treasurer Adviser A Christmas Party- w-as held for the group on December 16. The members played several Christmas games and Barbara Jean King read a story- called, “The Little Angel.” At the January 20 meeting, two film strips, “How- to Use Your Library”, and “How to Use The Ency-clopedia ”, w-ere shown. These w-ere presented so that the club members would become better acquainted w-ith library- pro- cedures. Therefore, they- could become more capable workers. Three programs on librarian- ship as a -ocation w-ere presented at the Febru- ary-, March, and April meetings. A picnic w-as planned for the late spring. Every- member of the Library- Club must w-ork at least sixty- hours during the school y-ear to receive a certificate of merit. Each of the forty--five members worked one w-eek out of every- three during his study- hall period. Thirty-- six of the students w-orked at the circulation and permits desk; six typed reading records; one was in charge of new books; one worked on the magazines, and one typed. “We’ve Booked Manchester For ‘De-feet’ ”, w as the theme of the group’s float in the Home- coming Parade. The club sponsored Audrey- Printz for Homecoming Queen. ■{ VI FTA Studies Profession ' s Needs The Future Teachers of America included in its membership students who planned to enter the teaching profession. Under the supervision of Miss irginia Lewis, the organization met on the third Thursday of every month. Each meeting consisted of a business session followed by a program. The club’s programs were de- voted to a study of the different issues relative to the teaching profession. arious fields of teaching were studied so that the members could select the field which they wished to enter. The club discussed the colleges that offered the best courses in the dif- ferent fields. Miss Lewis kept the group in- formed on new fields that were being opened in the teaching profession. Salaries of teachers in various branches were also compared. In investigating the teacher shortage the FTA found it most prevalent in elementary education and in special fields in high school. The groups discussed the projected school en- rollment for the next ten years so that they could see how great the high school teacher shortage would be. They discovered that in the 1964-65 school session there would be ap- proximately a million students in school com- pared to the 720,000 pupils in irginia schools now. This would necessitate at least 1,000 ad- ditional teachers each year for the next 10 years. This material was studied to point out the need of getting additional high school teachers to meet the continued shortage. The national organization of Future Teach- ers of Ameiica, in existence for 17 years, has 1,325 college and high school chapters in 1954. The Board of Directors of the ’irginia Educa- tion Association recently passed a resolution asking that a FTA be organized in each high school in the state. The aim of the club is to give young people a chance to explore the op- portunities of teaching, to acquaint them with current information about opportunities in various fields of education. At one of the meet- ings, Mr. Combs spoke to the members on teacher scholarships that were available, and the requirements for obtaining them. Next year the club plans to affiliate with the national FTA and secure pins for its members.

Mills Tri-Hi-Y Organizes Junior Club Beverley Carpenter President Peggy Dulin Vice President Shirley Stultz Secretary Frances Kibler Treasurer Mrs. Franklin Rosson Adviser f irst on the club’s agenda for the year was the organization of a Junior Tri-Hi-Y, com- posed of eighth graders and freshmen. In October Mr. Jack W ' ayland, head foot- ball coach, spoke to the Tri-Hi-Y on “School Spirit.” He stated that school spirit was largely a feeling of belonging. By getting more students to participate in school activi- ties, more school spirit could be developed, he explained. From January through April, the program meetings consisted of discussions of topics in “Teen Talk”, a booklet issued by the YMCA. Accompanied by their adviser, Mrs. Franklin Rosson, Maxine Kilby, Emily Rogers, and Beverley Carpenter attended the District 4, Hi- -Tri-Hi- Conference, November 6-7. Two delegates and a reporter also represented the club at Model General Assembly. The club, together with the junior organiza- tion, “adopted” a child in the county and gave her a basket of food and a “Toni” doll for Christmas. Following an established custom, the group co-sponsored the Sweet- heart Cotillion, the ’alentine dance. It also conducted a “Clean Scholarship” campaign during exams. A Mother-Daughter Banquet was held for the first time on May 6. Having completed the necessary require- ments, the Tri-Hi-Y became an “Ace” club for the fourth consecutive year. •■( 71 )■« Junior Tri-Hi-Y Makes Appearance Organized on September 15, the Junior Tri-Hi-Y became the youngest club at Cul- peper High School during the year 1954-55. Its first regular meeting was held on October 27 - Presenting the Sadie Hawkins Dance was the club’s first major activity. For this oc- casion the girls asked the boys for dates and had to escort them to and from the dance. Many of the boys wore traditional “Dogpatch” corsages, made by their dates from dried vegetables, weeds, and leaves. Marshall Clatterbuck and Ellen Mac Mahon werechosen as the typical Li’l Abner and Daisy Mae. Together with the other ” clubs, the group worked on a float for the Homecoming Parade and sold pennants at the Home- coming game. In their club meetings, they stressed good sportsmanship at athletic events. In January the club helped with a campaign for clean scholarship during the week of examinations. At its program meetings in February, March, April, and May, the group had discussions on topics suggested in “Teen Talk,” a program guide published by the YMCA. A St. Patrick’s Day Party was given by the Junior Tri-Hi-Y on March 19. “Teen-Age Party Time,” a local disc-jockey program, furnished music for the dance. The group co-operated with the senior Tri-Hi-Y in presenting a Christmas pageant for an assembly, holding a Halloween Carnival, sending a Christmas basket to their “adopted” child, and holding a Mother-Daughter Ban- quet on Alay 6. For the third year these clubs presented Holy eek Services at Eastertime from April 4-7. Every morning before school, a minister from one of the local churches gave a short message from 8:40-9:00. Two members of the Junior Tri-Hi-Y at- tended Model General Assembly, March 31- April 2, as pages. Delegates from this club journeyed to Blue Ridge during the summer for a course in officer’s training. On May 2, the club delighted the faculty members by presenting them with Alay Day baskets. A picnic was planned during the summer, at which time plans would be made for the coming year.

Musicians Acquire Color Guard Jesse Yowell James Geest iLLiAM Aylor Kdward Duncan Paul Baldwin Mary Thompson Mr. Walter Thomas Boasting the largest enrollment in its history, the Band numbered 50 during the 1954-55 session. The Color Guard made its first appearance with the CHS Band at the Warren- ton football game. Wearing white hats and uniforms with gold trim and plumes, Randolph Aylor, Willie Singleton, James Jacobs, and Aubrey Johnson helped to improve the band’s appearance as a unit. The American flag and ' irginia state flag were carried by two of the boys; the other members carried rifles. John Hartman and Robert Lipscomb replaced Aubrey Johnson and James Jacobs in the spring, when the latter two quit school. The Band played at all of the home football games and traveled to two away games at .Manassas and Fredericksburg. At halftime they gave a performance on the field, playing several songs while the majorettes showed their skill in baton twirling. Amazing precision and teamwork was displayed as the members Captain First Lieutenant Second Lieutenant Librarian Drum Major Drum Majorette Adviser formed intricate formations while playing. Entertaining at the District N teachers meeting in Berryville, October i, the band played selections by Rogers and Hammerstein and sev ' eral marches. Among the numbers played were “You’ll Never Walk Alone” and “We Kiss in a Shadow” by Rogers and Ham- merstein; “Autumn Nocturne” by Merle J. Isaac; and “Stars and Stripes Forever” by John Phillip Sousa. Jesse Yowell played a cornet solo in “W e Kiss in a Shadow.” During the Homecoming celebration, the group performed at the Alumni .Association meeting. . ' program consisting of six marches was presented for the student body at an assembly in the fall. Included in the program were “Activity,” “Project,” “Mutual,” “Military Escort,” “Summit,” and “Stars and Stripes Forever.” Sixteen reserve members were on hand to 76 } aid the band whenever necessary. Using the money earned during the magazine campaign in November, the group purchased twenty- five new band uniforms, sixty braids, several additional instruments, and four color guard uniforms. The Parent Band Association and other interested patrons also contributed toward the purchase of the equipment. Second place, carrying with it a prize of fifty dollars, was awarded to the band for the outstanding performance in the Orange Christmas Parade. The groups also marched in the Culpeper Christmas Parade. .Although they did not place, they received many favorable comments. The .Ann W ingfield band, organized several years ago, to train members who will eventually feed into the high school band, made its first public appearance in the Christmas Parade at Culpeper. Everyone was amazed at how well they played and at their marching ability. This organization, under the direction of Mr. W alter Thomas, taught the students the fundamental music principles and gave them experience in learning how to play in a group so that their music would blend in with the rest of the instruments. The elementary band took part in the regular band’s Spring Concert. Jesse A owell and Jay Geest represented the CHS Band in the .All-State Band, February 4, 5, and 6, in W inchester. Both boys were in the W orkshop Band at this assembly. The band played for the Pep Rally, February 10, at the assembly program. They presented an assembly in .April, at which time they played some of the selections that were in- cluded in their spring concert. For the first time the band participated in the .Apple Blossom Festival Parade in Win- chester, during the spring. This was a great honor as some of the best bands in this section of the country performed at the parade. Climaxing the year’s activities was the annual spring Band Concert, which was held in the high school gymnasium on April 22. The selections played for the concert included “Blue Tango,” “.Midnight Sun,” “Liberty Bell,” “In A Persian Market,” “William Tell Overture,” “Clock In The Toy Shop,” and a medley entitled “ Best Loved Southern Mel- odies.” One of the highlights of the program was “Show Boat,” a selection including such songs as “Cotton Blossom,” “Make Believe,” “Valon’s Theme,” “OF .Man River,” “Mis- ery,” “Can’t Help Lovin’ Dat Man,” “Cap- tain .Andy,” “Why Do I Love Aou. ” and “Hey, Fellah.” During the late spring the group also per- formed at a three-day band contest in W arren- ton. In May, the band marched in the Safety Council Parade in W ashington, D. C. Ending a very eventful year, the band played at the graduation exercises in June. In the band were two solo groups : a trombone quartet and a trumpet trio. The trombone quartet consisted of Colleen Callahan, Teddy Gore, Robert Grimsley, and Gregory Smith; Jesse A’owell, Oliver Lohr, and Marshall Clatterbuck composed the trumpet trio. The majorettes, led by Mary Lee Thompson, had two new members, Fannie Butler and Mary Hansbrough. This group marched with the band at all its performances and performed various routines while the band played at the football games. Paul Baldwin, the new drum major, made a fine showing as leader of the band and majorettes. Left, A. Johnson, J. Jacobs, R. . ylor, W. Singleton. Center, P. Baldwin. Right, P. Kilby, M.

Her- bert Fox, Lewis Nelson, and Charles Chilton went as delegates. Jesse Yowell, being vdce president of the district, also attended and pre- sided during the Saturday afternoon session. The entire conference was centered around the theme, “The ‘C’ Makes The Difference.” During the election of officers for Model Gen- eral Assembly, Jesse Yowell was elected clerk of the Senate. Many helpful ideas were brought back from the various discussion groups at the meeting. Although bad weather caused the Sweet- heart Cotillion to be postponed for twenty-four hours, it was still a great success. Held on Sat- urday, February 12, the dance, sponsored by the ” clubs, was the only formal one which underclassmen could attend. Jesse Yowell and Audrey Printz were selected as the King and Queen of Hearts by the chaperones. Jay (jeest was general chairman of the dance for the Hi-M After intermission the members of the ‘M ” clubs and their dates formed a heart on the dance floor. Led by the presidents of the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi- ’, the group went through part of the Grand March and then formed themselves into the figure of a heart. One of the chief money-making projects of the club was the sale of candy at the home basketball games. Another joint project of the “Y” clubs was the Christmas Dance to which each person brought some food or a toy as his admission. These items were given to the Com- munity Christmas project. World Day of Prayer services were con- ducted at school by the Hi-Y, P ' ebruary 25. Charles Chilton, president of the group, was in charge of the devotionals at the District SCA meeting in Culpeper, November 24. In co- operation with the Tri-Hi-Y, the Hi- was responsible for having grace over the public address system every other week at lunchtime. The club members also attended church in a body once a month, the churches being visited in alphabetical order. { 78 FFA Gives Five Awards at Banquet Initiating a new practice, the FFA co-spon- sored the FFA-FHA Banquet on February 2 in the school cafeteria. Robert Lipscomb served as toastmaster for the occasion. Five boys were recognized at that time for their outstanding work in the FFA. Ellsworth Christensen, an FFA alumnus, received a star award for his outstanding work as last year’s president. By winning second place in the dis- trict public speaking contest, Robert Lipscomb was presented the speaking award. Others re- ceiving awards were Charles Bawkey, for dairy work; Harry Carpenter, in mechanics; and Julian Aylor, for soil and water management. Culpeper claimed fifth place in the Forestry Judging Contest at Spotsylvania, Nov ' ember 4. Roger Tinsley, Willie Singleton, Randolph Settle, and Wayne Smith attended the contest. Randolph was the high scorer in the Culpeper group. At a meeting of the George Washington FFA Federation at Stafford, October 5, Robert Lipscomb was elected vice president. Other delegates from Culpeper were Roger Tinsley and Harry Carpenter. One of the group’s first activities of the year was selling subscriptions to “The Breeder Gazette Alagazine.” Night meetings were held for the first time this year, at which time the “Green Hands” were initiated. The FFA also sponsored the winning candidate for Home- coming Queen, Susan Hall. The George Washington Federation Shop and Crop Judging Contest was held in Cul- peper, February 9. Culpeper placed first in the shop judging contest and second in crop judging. The Culpeper Chapter climaxed its year’s activities by sending representatives to the annual state FFA convention in Blacksburg.

Mr. John Long Putting into practice their motto, “To Make the Best Better,” the Junior and Senior 4 -H Clubs displayed their achievements and proj- ects at various shows during the year. The hard work of many 4-H’ers was justified when many received ribbons and prizes at the Cul- peper Farm Show, September 3, 4. Some of the members went on to the district and state fairs, gaining more recognition as junior farmers and homemakers. 4-H Achievement Day, which was held on November 20, cited the outstanding work of many youths. Those receiving awards in various fields were Mary Carder, leadership and frozen foods; Marie White, canning; irginia Curtis, food preparation; Gregory Smith, dairy achievement; Brenda Johnson, clothing; Evans Hensley, general achieve- ment; Lucille Jones, bread; William Jones and Robert Lipscomb, meat animal; and Elizabeth Speiden and Robert Lipscomb, public speaking. Elizabeth Speiden and Barbara Jacobs received home and electric awards. Under the leadership of Mr. Henry Gilbert and Miss Elizabeth Farrar, County Home Dem- onstration Agent, the clubs undertook several new projects. Scotch-Lite tape was sold to be put on farm implements as a safety measure. Later in the year, the members participated in a campaign to exterminate rats in the county. Courses in electricity were offered to those who were interested. Elizabeth Feaganes attended the Rural Electrification Congress in Richmond, September 2, 3, 4. Three students competed in the 4-H Club area contest held in Culpeper on February 5. | Doris Carder entered the bread contest; Ellen Speiden, food preparation; and Elizabeth i Speiden, home improvement. This was the fifth time this contest had been held in Cul- peper. I National 4-H Club Week was observed ; March 5-13. At that time the clubs presented a radio and assembly program and displayed j an exhibit on the school bulletin board. On Rural Life Sunday the group attended church in a body. Throughout the year, recreational programs of various types were held. The clubs were well represented at the State Short Course at . P. I. the previous summer, with sixteen boys and girls attending. At this assembly, Elizabeth Speiden was elected an All-Star, bringing this county’s school members to four. Camp Farrar at I irginia Beach and camp Holiday Lake near | Appomattox also had Culpeper delegates, with sixteen and thirty-four, respectively, attending. Honorable mention was awarded to the 4-II Club’s float in the Homecoming Parade, the theme being “We’re Gonna Can Man- chester.” ■{ 80 CHAPTER IV “To make sure our school life is a well- rounded one, Culpeper High School provides sports for its students. Johnny may, if he wishes, go out for junior varsity or varsity football, and basketball, track, and baseball. There are enough sports so that all the boys have a chance to participate in the sport or sports of their choice. Although the girls’ sports are more limited than the boys’, there are still enough to keep a girl busy. I may try out for varsity or junior varsity cheer- leading, basketball, and softball. Being on these teams helps Johnny and me to practice good sportsmanship, develop character and maintain physical fitness. “Though it takes extra time to participate in sports, we enjoy doing it and meet many new people. If Johnny and I are not taking part in a sport, we are always on the sidelines to give our classmates support with a cheer. Not only does it take the players on the field or floor to have good teams, but also people on the sidelines to cheer them to victory. “VVe would like to introduce the teams which represent our school in all the athletic events.” ■4 Top. front rote: J.

Ten of last year’s squad reported and were joined by 25 boys, some of whom had moved up from Junior arsity. The loss of letter- man Edwin Gaines, who suffered a knee injury early in the season, weakened the line. Roger Myers, a fast backfield man, was out the latter part of the season with a broken hand. Facing this small inexperienced squad of players were some of the best teams in Dis- trict 2, Group 2. Little Devils Gain Pigskin Ability inning their first game against Albemarle, a newcomer to the Junior arsity schedule, the 1954 Junior ' arsity Football team gave the Culpeper fans a spectacular display of “stick- to-it-ness” and stamina. Under the direction of Coach James Stover, the Little Devils proved their ability as future Blue Devils as they ended their season with four wins and only two losses to their credit. Their initial luck did not hold as the Dinks dropped their second game to a strong Orange junior varsity, but the same spirit which sparked the big Devils must have spread to their younger brothers, as they went on to over- power an always strong Manassas eleven. Again the Orange team defeated the Little Devils, and once more they came back to dowm the Albemarle Jayvees. In the last game of the season the Little Devils proved their un- concern for inexperience by once again showing Manassas that they were the better team. Scorfs Date Opponent Place CHS Oppt.

Gaines was high scorer seven times; James Geest, five times; Korte, four; and illiam Jones, Burke, James Weakley, Roger Tinsley, and James Bache each led one time. Edwin Gaines and David Coates were the only lettermen returning to the varsity basket- ball squad. Coates, due to injury, played in only two games. Gaines was the main work- horse on the team with his high average of re- bounds and also the season’s high scorer with 130 points. Joel Burke’s long shots and Joseph Korte’s lay-ups gave spark. In the most exciting game, played on the home floor with King George, the score was tied at half-time and see-sawed often iri the third quarter which ended with the Foxes ahead by three points. In the last minute of the game, with the score again tied, Tinsley was fouled. He sank both shots to win the game. i 8t K ' IV Quintet Builds From One Letterman ith only one letterman and one other mem- ber of last year’s jayvee basketball squad re- turning, the game record was still better than average. The team was composed of boys whose height averaged about 5 ' io . Coach Bobby Walker cleared the bench of every player in the tw ' o Rappahannock games, and one each of the Warrenton, Fredericksburg, and King George games. This gave added ex- perience to the second and the third string and helped save the first string for the harder games. In the Orange, Albemarle, and Spot- sylvania games Culpeper led in most of the game but lost in the fourth quarter, losing these three games by a total of lo points. At the half time in the Louisa game the Rinky- dinks were losing by one point, but came from behind in the third quarter and kept their lead the remainder of the game. The most unusual feature of the season happened in the Warren- ton game, when a Warrenton man scored a goal for the Culpeper team. Scores Date Opponents Place CHS Oppts.

With six returning lettermen and five first stringers moving up from the Junior arsity, the team was one of the best prepared teams in the district. Junior Mary Thompson led the Devilettes in scoring with a total of 129 points. Barbara Dulin and Frances Kibler, the other two first string forwards, followed with 121 and 94, respectively. ' irginia Parker and Patricia Kilby had 29 and 5, respectively. The season’s success was not due all to- gether to the fine record of the forwards in goals. The tight zone defense played by first string guards Jacquelin Bragg, Peggy Dulin, and Carole Reynolds, kept the opponents down to a minimum of goals. Barbara King, Joan Moore, and Kathleen Harlow also played a big part in helping the first string keep the opponents’ scores low. The most exciting game of the season was played at Orange. Orange was ahead the last two seconds by one point. B. Dulin went in to make a lay-up and was fouled. She made both foul shots to win the game. Coach Sara Sherman stripped the bench every game but the two Orange games. 8(i K ' Defensive Work Holds Down Opponents The Jayvee Girls’ Basketball season featured the outstanding work of guards Ann Clatter- buck, Ellen Walker, and Rosalie Baber. Paula Hawkins, Joyce Printz, Barbara Rixey, Naomi Cav ' e, Rebecca Hawkins, and Nancy Graves also made a good showing. Like the guards, the forwards had little or no experience before this season. They were well balanced with Geraldine Curtis, Winifred Shaw, and Jane Brown serving as one unit and Linda Sudduth, Marion White, and Adrienne Hall as the other. The first three scored 112 points to 106 for the second trio. Not one of these forwards had ever scored a goal until this year. There were twenty-five girls on the squad and in several games every person on the team got into the game. Curtis was high scorer with 49 points. Following closely behind were Sudduth with 39, Hall with 33, Shaw with 37, and White with 29. Brown made a good showing by racking up 26 points while Garr and Gloria Curtis dropped in points to help make the total number of points for the year to be 227.

The long winning streak was blamed for the re- stricted schedule of only six games, the coach finding it difficult to find teams who were willing to take on the victory-laden Devilettes. They scheduled one less game than the year before, and Warren County was the only team appearingon both 1953 and 1954 schedules. Nine members of the 1953 season returned and seven rookies joined them. Shirley Thompson, captain and pitcher, was the only player to be lost to the 1955 team by gradua- Scores C. H. S. Oppts.

As a part of the campaign they decorated a bulletin board stressing the importance of school spirit. Running the candy store at lunchtime was one of the club’s major jobs. It was run entirely by the girls who are members of the Monogram Club. All workers in the store must be approved by the sponsor of the store, Mr. Floyd Binns, and the principal, Mr. James 11 . Combs. Workers served on two shifts. Members who had a fourth period study hall ate lunch early and took the first shift. Others came on at 12:45. One-third of the store profits went toward buying the girls’ athletic association equipment. Jacquelin Bragg, innie Brown, and Willie Estes acted as treasurers counting the money daily and turning it over to the school treasurer. Peggy Dulix Barbara Dulix Fr.axces Kibler Margaret Hardixg Barbara Spilmax Miss Sara Sherm.a.x A new project this year for the club was the selling of white shirts. These shirts had an insignia of a blue devil on the front and were offered for sale to the whole student body. For the second time the club competed with the Boys’ Monogram Club in the March of Dimes race down Main Street. The girls collected 58 dollars for the Drive even though the boys’ club won the race. The girls raced on the sidewalk from Gayheart’s corner south and the boys chalked the side next to the bank. The club held its second initiation since its beginning, for the new members of the club late in the spring. The new members were made to dress in miscellaneous costumes and to wear them all day. The girls of the club held a private initiation at the end of the day to finish “welcoming” these newcomers into the club.

' ' Dinks Feature Three Dances Roger Myers President iLLiAM Cropp l ice President James Geest Secretary James B.ache Treasurer Mr, Bobby Walker Adviser Entertaining their members with three dances, entering a float in the Homecoming Parade, taking the annual trip to Washington to the Major League Baseball game, and helping at varsity games, constituted the major activities of the Junior Monogram Club, more commonly referred to as the “Rinkv- dinks”. The float resembled a bowling green, with the “ten-pins” placed in a triangular position, and each bearing the monogram “M” for Manchester. A Blue Devil held a bowling ball carrying the sign “The Devils W ill Bowl Over Manchester.” The first dance, just before Christmas, was opened to the student body. The club also featured a barn dance, limited to the club members and lettermen. The biggest event of the year was the Easter dance April i, open to the student body, and at which Mr. James Logan’s orchestra played. I ' he cafeteria was decorated with life-size Easter bunnies. During football season the “Dinks” per- formed a big service to the athletic depart- ment when they took over parking cars, serving as ushers, walking fences, and col- lecting tickets at the home football games. To make money, they sponsored a Seniors versus Faculty basketball game March 8. On Aw ' ards Day the Monogram Club presented a trophy to the outstanding Junior ’arsity athlete of the year. Presented for the first time in 1953, the trophy went that year to James Combs and James Weakley the following year. The Junior Varsity Monogram Club de- feated the Girls’ Monogram Club in a race of dimes on the sidewalks of Main Street for the benefit of the March of Dimes. The boys collected $120 while the girls collected 58. Initiation of new members closed the year’s activities. 92 } Jayvee Cheeerleaders Build Up Pep “We’ve got a T-E-A-M That’s on the B-E-A-M We’ve got a T-E-A-M That’s on the B-E-A-M, So it’s hep to the jive, Come on Rinkydinks Skin them alive. Yea team!” This was the favorite yell of the eight girls who made up the Junior Varsity Cheerleaders’ squad. They had met during the summer and decided on their new uniforms choosing navy blue skirts, white sweaters, and white bucks. In September under their new captain, Vlary Peters, they donned the new ' uniforms at the first jayvee football game. These jayvee cheer- leaders sought to arouse support from the spec- tators and to give courage and enthusiasm to the jayvee teams. Before the first game, the athletic department presented new gold letters to this morale building group. Cheering for the Junior arsity team, home and away, was their main responsibility. Be- fore each jayvee game they spent some time decorating one goal post in the traditional blue and gold, and one in the opponent’s colors. They also sold programs before each home var- sity game. The cheerleaders decorated a convertible with blue and gold streamers and rode through town as a part of the Homecoming parade. They led the crowd in yells all along the line of march. They were present Thursday evening as a group for the annual bonfire before the Homecoming game, November 5. The cheerleaders practiced after school every other day making new yells, and, when football season was over, they revised the yells and started practicing for basketball season. They raised money for their activities by selling cook- ies and candy in the cafeteria at lunchtime. Basketball season arrived and the cheerlead- ers were present for the Junior Varsity games which were always played preceding the var- sity ones and sat as a group during the varsity games. Here they gave concentrated support to the Varsity Cheerleaders. In the spring the sponsor and the arsity Cheerleaders chose the members for next year’s squad. The girls lined up in a row and went through a couple of yells together. The arsity Cheerleaders and sponsor then judged them on their agility, jump, pep, and gracefulness in carrying out the cheers.

On the diamonds located across the field from the buildings, the baseball and softball teams met their opponents in all home games. Be- cause of the lack of lights all games for both teams were played on Tuesday and Friday in the afternoon. When the games were away they played on the same days but the baseball team sometimes played at night. Culpeper High School does not have a track, so all the home track meets were held at Wood- berry Forest. Members of the track team, be- cause of the lack of track facilities in Culpeper, often journeyed to Woodberry after school to practice. All the football games except three were played on Friday nights. The Devils journeyed to Augusta Military Academy to play on Friday afternoon and to Chester and Falls Church on Saturday afternoons. 95 )■ Competition Reigns Supreme R. Tinsley, Xo. 35, and J.

W hen the boys played away, the girls’ games were played at 4:00 in the afternoon so that the girls and boys could see each other play. This gave the students an opportunity to see four games a week in some cases. All games played on the home court at night started at 7:00 with the Junior arsity team playing first, followed by the varsity games. Except for a few instances, the teams both played eight minute quarters. hen they did not play eight minute quarters the Junior ar- sity teams played six minutes and the varsity eight minutes. •( 96 CHAPTER V “To Mary and me and to all our friends, school life is more than just studying. This does not mean that we do not like to study, but that we like to do other things, too. These outside activities help prepare us for the world in which we are going to live. “During the first month of school we saw the year’s first football game and sat for the first time in the new stadium. At the beginning of the second month, thoughts of the Home- coming game filled our minds. We in- augurated our third month in school by attending our first school dance of the year. During the fourth month we saw our first basketball game, also we attended the annual Christmas dance. After Christmas there were more dances and many new events in which to participate. The event of the year for the Juniors and Seniors was the Junior-Senior Prom. Graduation was close and we began saying good-by to all our friends. Our school year was about over. “On the next part of the tour we will have pictures of some of the highlights of the year.’’ 0( 97 }i Doors Reopen September 1 Students came for the ’54-’S5 session, Sep- tember I. W ith 83 seniors, no juniors, 113 sophomores, 125 freshmen, and 149 eighth graders, the new term was ready to start. Twenty-seven teachers, six of whom were new to the CHS system, made up the faculty who were to direct the learning activities of the students. Since everyone knew that a hard year awaited him, each student started to work at once. Old friends greeted each other in the halls and recounted stories of the summer’s activities; new students tried to locate their classes. As usual, a few dissatisfied students tried to change their schedules. The law- breakers again received warning slips when the monitors made their appearance. Athletics for the year began as football practice started. There were few experienced players returning to the squad. The officers of the SCA took over the matters of the school government, after an impressive installation program. A new club, the Junior Tri-Hi- , composed of eighth and ninth grade girls, made its debut. The Girls’ Monogram Club opened the school store at lunch period. A little later proud seniors acquired their class rings. The feet of J. Weakley, H. Mills, and R. Weakley, top picture, seem to drag as they move toward the building on the first day of the 1954-55 year. Miss V. Lewis, second picture, installs B. Dulin as SCA President at assembly, September 24.

Hazel Disrupts Classes S chool life became humdrum. Eighth graders learned rules and traditions, and found that it was best not to go up the down steps. Hurricane Hazel blew in October 15 closing school at 11:30 to the delight of the students. School closed also for District N and VEA meetings October i and 29. End of the first six-week grading period made all realize that studying was necessary. The Colonnade Staff had group and individual pictures taken. Students caught up with the news in the first Pepergram. Ghosts and goblins reigned October 30, as the Tri-Hi- and the Junior Tri-Hi-Y held their Halloween Carnival. •( 99 D.

Homecoming Spotlighted The first week in November moved by fast and was filled with frenzied activity. Everyone was in a rush preparing for Homecoming, November 5. The big day dawned cold and clear, and students’ voices filled the halls with excited chatter. Students worked on the different floats until 12:00 at which time they were judged. This year the judges came to the school and judged the construction and then judged the appearance during the actual parade. The FBL.A’s float copped first prize with Homeroom No. 26 coming in second. Students began to relax after the parade, but the football boys became tense waiting for the big game. That night saw the stadium full of people and ready for the conflict. The end of the Homecoming celebration took place Saturday night when the alumni honored the class of 1919 with a party in the cafeteria. The last football game followed by the first dance the same night, the Dramatic Club play, the Sadie Hawkins dance, and District SC. Convention kept November crowded. { 100 H- After a fast break in the first game of the season, J. Korte, left, makes a lay-up. J. Burke is in background. FBLA members, top right, consult Mrs. H.

Holiday Spirit Invades Classrooms Knowing that a holiday was right around the corner, December seemed to move very slowly, but preparing for the approaching holidays put everyone in a festive mood. Students decorated homeroom doors with wreaths of evergreens, bordered bulletin boards and blackboards with Christmas cards, and trimmed Christmas trees in the rooms. The FBLA made yarn dolls to be worn as pins, to sell to the students for Christmas gifts. A “Hobby Lobby” was opened by the FHA in the Homemaking Department. There students could purchase many useful articles at economical prices. The Colonnade staff met the first deadline by getting individual and group pictures to the engraver and writers started to work on copy. Basketball teams opened their seasons and Tuesday and Friday nights drew players and spectators. The Glee Club gave an impressive concert on December 12 and furnished the music for the Tri-Hi-Y pageant, December 17. The Y Clubs presented their annual Christmas dance, which required food or a toy for ad- mission. Every homeroom had a Christmas party in the afternoon of December 22, the last school day before the holiday. Each homeroom also packed a Christmas basket for the Community Christmas Program. 4 , 101 )■ Dark uniformed Devil Cagers, top left, scramble for ball. formed Jackets, owcr r, are in the melee with E.

Sno w, Exams, Basketball Take Over Christmas behind them for another year, students and teachers returned to school on January 4. Reviewing for exams was the main activity in the classroom. Students had just settled down and gotten back in the swing of things when another holiday presented itself. Thanks to a snow storm students could rest for a day, and exams moved one day farther away. January 19 was dreaded by all students, for it was the beginning of exams. For the next two days students suffered under the heavy load of added study. Alarch of Dimes Drive invaded the school and its Talent Show found a large number of students participating and helping to enliven the program. Teen-Age Party Time, a recently initiated community project, drew teen-agers every Saturday night. There was dancing from 9 to II. ■1 102 }■ ■ Mr. and Mrs. V.

Haught, far right. Snow Postpones Cotillion Gaiety The Sweetheart Cotillion was postponed until the next night, because of a sudden snow storm. To the students, presidents, and sponsors of the Y clubs this was a disaster because the orchestra booked for the twelfth could not come on the thirteenth. After some fast thinking and a few ' telephone calls a band was finally acquired. The annual Career Day planned by the guidance committee for juniors and seniors was held on February 24. This gave the upper- classmen a chance to speak with representa- tives from the colleges in which they were interested. After the general assembly the afternoon was divided into three periods so that each student w ' ould have the opportunity of visiting three representatives from either a college or a business concern.

Juniors Splurge To Honor Seniors Having looked forward to the Junior- Senior Prom ever since their first year in high school, the Juniors exercised all their talents raising sufficient funds and then in staging the annual Junior-Senior Prom. Only juniors and seniors and their outside dates and faculty members could attend. Coaches sounded the call for participants in spring sports. Boys and girls flocked to the softball, track, and baseball fields. Warm days appeared but not enough to help the teams. Cold, rainy, and windy weather in early March found the girls and boys parctic- ing pitching, catching, and running in the gym and cafeteria. The ' irginia High School League Forensic contests for (iroup II, District 2, was held for the first time at Culpeper, March 26. Events included public speaking, reading, spelling, and debating. 4 I ' King, top left, rounds the track on the last lap in first W.

Other club activities were the Easter Dance staged by the Junior Monogram Club and the Spanish Club’s annual banquet, with a dance later. The Easter dance, open to the entire school, had an orchestra from Luray to provide the music. The most activity came during the last week in April. The band practiced hard and furious- ly to be ready for the Apple Blossom I ' estival. While the musicians were off on their trip, the representatives of the Colonnade and Peper- gram journeyed to Lexington to the Southern Interscholastic Press Association Convention. Four students from each staff and the two ad- visers made the trip. ■1 105 } M. Kilby, R. Bayne, and R. Haught, top picture, view Colonnades, lower right, on Class Day are B.

Signing Seniors Reach Last Lap In High School W ith their class play just over and after five years of hoping, planning, working, and wish- ing, the seniors arrived at their last week. Class Day initiated this week’s exciting days. The hard looks of seniors caught more than one underclassman coming through the privileged front door. At Class Day assembly girls walked daintily down the aisle in white dresses, followed by boys arrayed in suits. The last will and test- ament, class prophecy, senior personalities. class poem, motto, and class history were read. The seniors sang their song and then eagerly went to get their Coloxn.ades. The rest of the afternoon was spent in getting autographs. The Senior Sermon followed on Sunday night. Seniors were aware that the end of school was near. (iraduation came, and, with diplomas in hands, proud seniors walked down the aisle as students for the last time. •;■( li)(i )■: • CHAPTER VI “Johnny and I have introduced you to all of our friends at school.

This year has been a delightful year for us and we dread to part. We have tried to present a pic- ture of what goes on in Culpeper High School during a year. Although we have not caught every phase of ev ' ery event of the school life we feel that we have caught the ones which we think typifies a year at our school. “Our tour is over, but we shall remain at Cul- peper High School. Anyone can look around and see us in the halls for we are the typical students who attend Culpeper High School each year. ” ♦3( 136 K Principal Combs ond Mr. J.
