Pee Bil yeeM LIINSEY. Che Auke of Ginberland The title of our yearbook is that of William Augustus, third son of King George II and Queen Caroline of England, born April 15, 1721, and created Duke of Cumberland when only five years of age. It was for him that our County was named. The Duke was well-educated and excelled in outdoor sports. He sailed as a volunteer in the fleet in 1740, hoping to fulfill his parent’s ambition to see him lord high admiral. He disliked the navy, however, and early in 1742 decided upon a military career. Soon he became major general and saw much service in Germany, where his valor and energy in battle won popularity for him with the people of his homeland. The Duke was again promoted to the office of lieutenant general and two years later, having been made captain general of the land forces at home and in the field, he was again in Flanders as Commander-in-chief of allied British, Hanoverian, Austrian, and Dutch troops. Despite being a severe disciplinarian, he inspired his men with a strong attachment to him personally, and a lively esprit de corps. Because of his severity as a disciplinarian, he earned the nick name of “Butcher”, which he said to be an unjust taunt, which was encouraged by his brother and used for political purposes. Although his popularity once brought him an income of 40,000 pounds a year in ad- dition to his royal revenue, he finally was forced to retire from all public offices. He had done excellent work with the army during ten years of peace, but when defeat came to him in the Seven Year’s War, he felt himself disgraced. His death followed October 20, 1765, before he ever regained his former prestige. ee RR RR RR RRR RRR RRR a NNR RR RRR RRBs Bs Bs BWV BeBe VT CUMBERLAND HIGH SCHOOL Cumberland, Virginia E.

It was during our Freshman year that we heard that John Randolph Hamil ton, and Cumberland High Schools were to be consolidated. We were overjoyed at the prospect of going to a new school and meeting new teachers and classmates. We entered school the next fall with many regrets for having to leave our old schools and dreading the tests and exams which we knew wouldn’t be long in coming once we were settled. In spite of all this we were glad to know we were having some of our old friends and counselors with us to guide us those remaining years in school. We have had the misfortune of losing some of our classmates and the privilege of gaining new ones. Marjorie Ownby, Annie Dowdy, Vir- ginia Marion and Elbert Midkiff left us to try their hands in other fields. Ray Routt and Garnett Trent were transferred to other schools and Evelyn Smith, Nell Cloninger and Jeanne Gordner took their places last year. Benjamin Smith also left last year to join the Navy. Louis Lang, Howard Baker, and Buddy Byrd are back with us this year after serving our country in the various branches of service for a year or so. Helen Parker decided to come back and graduate with us this year. The honor of becoming members in the various school activities was given to some of the seniors this year. We welcomed Jean Spillman, Jeanne Gordner, Louis Lang, Lois Lewis, Nell Cloninger, Buddy Byrd, Howard Baker, and Willard Calhoun into the Glee Club along with members of other classes making the club larger than it had ever been before. Miss Parker, the head of the Dramatic Club, was glad to have Mary Smith, Margaret Midkiff, Nell Cloninger, Willard Calhoun and Roy Hatcher as new members of the Dramatic Club. Many of our class- mates participated in the activities of the Home Economics Club, 4-H Club, and F. F. A. Club. The Glee Club and the Dramatic Club each gave a dramatic production in which members of the senior class had leading parts. Our classmates on the boy’s baseball, football, and bas- ketball teams and the girl’s softball team fought courageously to win over their opponents. We now want to thank our teachers for the earnest effort they have made to equip us with the tools needed for our life’s work. We have struggled long and faithfully and have had our “ups” and “downs”, but we appreciate having an opportunity to work with our teachers and classmates. We regret even the thought of having to leave, but each of us has his destiny to fulfill. We urge all those we leave behind to make the most of every opportunity given them and to carry on where we have left off, doing each task faithfully, and working toward the goal of mak- ing our school the best of its kind. SNAG IWHD OO tt ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ees (e3om) PROPHECY Washington, D. C. June 17, 1957 Dear Helen: What a month! Like those at Cumberland High it has been running over with things to do, people to see and unexpected encounters! Your last letter was a joy! Little did I know that your work as public health nurse in Cumberland County could be as exciting and interesting as you make it sound. Lucky you to come into more or less daily con- tact with the old “Forty-seveners” who are at home in Cumberland or back home for an occasional visit. It isn’t difficult to see Jacque Carter, with her vivacity “making the most out of life” for herself and her community as a housewife and civic leader in her native village; or to hear Shirley’s infectious gig- gle ring out as she takes time from her labors as bookkeeper for the paper concern in Richmond to dash home for a visit, one of the drug store cokes, and one of those very special hair-do’s of Minnie Morgan’s at the Cumberland Beauty Shoppe. Washington itself has been in a ferment with conventions, concerts and what have you! This year’s crowds seemed to be sprinkled with our erst-while classmates. Some of them, like me, are more or less permanent inhabitants of the city; others are just passing through. Only last week, as I stopped at the garage for the car’s monthly check-up and my weekly chat with the manager, Andrew Johnson, who should drive in in a half-block-long 57 Mercury but Garland Blanton and Bud- dy Keller. They, believe it or not, are joint directors in a coal mining company. Tongues flew at such a rate, and I was so excited that I drove off without getting gas. A few blocks up the street Ophelie Bumps, my aged car, coughed and stopped. Strangely it won’t run on air. Ophelia Bumps and I just sat there but no aid came! So I finally got out and started tampering with the motor. I was banging away so loudly I hardly heard someone say, “Need some help lady?” “Need some? Sir—” and Helen guess who it was! Buddy Byrd and his pri- vate secretary, Jean Spillman! They were going to lunch and asked me to go with them. You know my answer! Working on the car made me hungry! We couldn’t eat and chat fast enough there were so many things to tell! Buddy gave me my first surprise by telling me that Wil- lard Calhoun is president of a new car company and is putting out a snazzy 58 “Zootser.” Jean told me her cousin, the attractive Virginia May Raymond, who married just after we were graduated, has her hands full with Nip and Tuck, the twins. It must be nice for you, having the school so handy. I know you like to go over and chat with the principal and teachers. When did Billy Ayres become principal? And I never dreamed that Mary would ever be a Home Ec. teacher. I must tell you about the variety show I buzzed over to see last night! While I was standing in line to get my ticket, someone tapped me on the shoulder. I turned and guess whom I saw! Howard Baker and Louis Lang! They are in the Merchant Marine and were on leave. They said they had recognized me as that bashful, backward little girl who had been the dumbbell of our class. I got my ticket and went in. As the usher took my ticket he said “Up front as usual, Margaret?” And there was Aubrey Brown! PRN eR RR RRR RRR RRR RRS GQ @ oT NNN NNN NNN ( 34 ) PROPHECY (Continued) Beautiful music filled the hall and I wasn’t surprised when Mildred George glided out to sing. Remember what promise held when she sang in school—a promise now realized. But I was surprised when Gordon Miller rolled out on stage in a clown’s costume! But even his costume didn’t conceal him. Somebody, sitting a few rows away jumped up and cried, “Well, if it isn’t Gordon Miller!” Then I shouted, “If that isn’t Lois Lewis.” We hadn’t known we were sitting near each other. And Helen, even more amazing was the fact that with her were three more of our old ’47’ers, Betty, Ruby ,and Nellie. Between intermission, we all exchanged our “Hi’s” and “How-are-you’s?” Then we started finding out what everybody was doing. Lois told me she was a typist in Richmond and Nellie, a nurse at Medical College, was boarding with her. They had taken a few days vacation to come ‘to Washington. Betty has finished her training as a doctor and is “interning” here in Wash- ington. One day Betty had run up with Ruby who was giving a lecture at a club meetng. My, my! I never thought we’d have met there! We forgot the show completely and dashed off for a coke and a real chat. Going down the street we noticed a big sign “Research and Utiliza- tion of Farm Products, President, Frank Foster.” We ran in to see if the President was busy but bumped into Jeanne Gordoner. She ex- plained how she had become laboratory technician there. She had just started up the street to learn the newest in fashions from the dress de- signers, Eva Bell Brown and Nell Cloninger. We were invited to go along but we hadn’t grabbed that coke yet. We entered a nice looking drug store and sat drinking our cokes and chatting. A familiar looking lady came up and turned on a radio near us. Betty was first to say “Hi, Dolly!” She is teaching kinder- garten here in Washington. She sat down with us and listened to the sweet accordian music floating in the air. The announcer said, “Listen tomorrow to the lovely playing and singing of Evelyn Smith. Your an- nouncer, Reed Wilson.” Don’t we live and learn? I am glad to hear that the Cumberland forest is so beautiful. I didn’t know Louis Phiffer would make such a good forrester. With Robert Ehrhart being a farmer and living near him, I suppose they visit a lot. I received a letter a few days ago from Mary Bowling. She tells me she is an F. B. I. agent and her headquarters are in Richmond. Mary says Mary Alice Ragland is at Thomas Jefferson High School teaching history and government. What nice subjects to teach. Helen, you asked about Sarah McCraw. I went down to Farmville for my vacation about a month ago, and visited her a few days. Sarah teaches athletics at Farmville High. While in Farmville the S. T. C. Dancing Club sponsored a show. We were surprised to see the profes- sional dancer, Ann Burnette take the show with her graceful dancing. Jeepers creepers! The clock just struck three and I have to be on the job at nine. Good night.

Listen, then, one and all, while I read the document, as duly drawn up and sworn to: We the class of 1947 being about to pass out of this sphere of education, in full posses- sion of a crammed mind, well trained memory, and almost super-human understandings do make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills or promises by us at any time heretofore made, or mayhaps, carelessly spoken, one to the other as the thoughtless wish of an idle hour. We give to the dear faculty, who have been our instructors in all the wisdom of the ages, a sweet and unbroken succession of restful nights and peaceful dreams. No longer need they lie awake through the long watches of the night to worry over the uncer- tainty of whether this one is doing her night work, or that one will have her mathe- matics in morning class, or the other one will remember every iron-clad rule of compo- sitional technique in the preparation of her essay. It has been a strain on them, for Sen- iors are said to be at all times and under all conditions difficult to manage. The following may seem but trifling bequests, but we hope they may be accepted, not as worthless things, but as valuable assets to those who may receive them. I, Minnie Morgan, will all my “A’s” in Government to Mary Elizabeth Yates. I, Howard Baker, will all my Chemistry notes to David Thompson. I, Virginia Mae Raymond, will all my flirting with the boys to Ann Vaughan. I, Robert Ehrhart, will my ability to get along with the girls to Everet Carnes. I, Mary Alice Ragland, will all of my hard studying to Elbert Womack. I, Louis Pfeiffer, will my quiet ways to Frank Wallace. I, Mary Smith, will my broken desk to Frank Baber. I, Gordon Miller, will my ability to get along with Mr. Bedinger to Robert Agee. I, Mildred George, will all my singing ability to Frances Moorefield. I, Aubrey Brown, will my ability to be on the baseball team to Buck Blackwell. I, Shirley Atkinson, will all my love for “Karo” to Edith Dowdy. I, Buddy Keller, will all my dates with Mattie Emerson to Carl Barnes. All the rest and residue of our property, whatsoever it may be, we give and bequeath to our beloved Principal, for his use and benefit absolutely and to be disposed of for the good of the coming classes as he may see fit. And we do hereby constitute and appoint the said Principal sole executor of this our last will and testament. In witness whereof, We, the Class of 1947, the testators, have to this our will, written on this sheet of parchment, set our hands and seal the fifth day of June, one thousand nine hundred and forty-seven.
