PRESENTING the B75 students who till the classrooms of CCHS Making up the student body are the 675 boys and girls of Culpeper County High School. On September 16, 1949. Principal J. H. Combs and Superintendent Paul Hounshell addressed an assembly of 513 pupils on the opening day of the new high school building. Bewildered stu- dents wandered around the unfamiliar halls and classrooms for several days trying to get to know the new school. For ten years many boys and girls have passed from eighth grade to ninth, from ninth to tenth, and so on until their goal, the senior year, was reached. The students attending CCHS came from many surrounding areas and a few from other counties. Transportation to school is provided for by buses, and some students arrive in cars. Popular dress during this year included the crew neck sweater with box pleated skirt. Decor for the sweater was the ever popular tie bar pin or the circle pins. The French-twist was a favorite hair style while the long page-boy reigned in second place. The entire student body worked and mingled together in the best of form. Good citizenship and sportsmanship were displayed throughout the year by the students of CCHS. Every student endeavored to make each year better than the previous year. It is with this goal in mind that they strive to be better students and make a better school in which to work. Four Minutes to Change — Hall scene, opposite page , shows Mr. Frazier, principal, watching stu- dents as they change classes. Scene also shows Roland Williams, assistant janitor as he leaves the workroom. Students of 1949, right picture, wait to catch the bus after their first day of school. 4 . 25 fr
