The first is Amelia, who’s small but a smart one, And that lovely black hair belongs to Anna Martin. Vernon Lance is our basketball man, And Gloria is his most ardent fan. For a kind word, smile, or a bit of good cheer. You can always go to Carole Heer. Our football stars are Charlie, Carl, and Bob, But Hop, Earl, and John too have done a good job. To keep the ball rolling for our basketball team We have Merle and Louise Epperly right on the beam. Our romantic baritone is Malcolm Via; He sets a certain Junior’s heart on fire. Pauline Tickle is quite talkative you’ll agree. And in quiet contrast is Helen Agee. Our tall, slim, blonde who is quite a charmer Can be none other than Shirley Farmer. Effe is our ladies’ man with competition to face. For Jack Elkins can really run him a race. We have Jackie Gaking with his bright bow ties. And Barbara Abell with the “come hither” eyes. George Akers is our class clown; And as for Blacksburg, Mary knows all about that town. This boy was manager of our football team this year; Let’s give “Doc” Tolbert three big cheers! Vinie and Dora are a quiet pair. But if you need them to depend on, they’re always there. Betty Lou is sweet and small. While R. J. is, in contrast, quite tall. Pretty, reliable and fun-loving too. That’s our one and only Peggy Lou. Let’s give L. V. a great big cheer. He’s going to graduate this year! Fate was kind to Junior as we can tell. For he certainly has Polly under his spell. Paul and Clifford are two of a kind. They’ve always got mischief on the mind. Those ruby lips belong to Joan, And a mind like Rhea’s anyone would like to own. Our talented musician is Mary Bruce; When she gets near a piano she really cuts loose. Betty Jean and Louise are quiet, it’s true. But very attractive, and likeable too. If you haven’t heard about that bundle of joy. Get Ed to sing “Chattanooga Shoe Shine Boy.” Nancy Halsey is small and sweet. And she can really make Vick’s heart skip a beat. Bonnie and Kenneth are an intelligent pair. Just look on the honor roll, their names are there. Another bright girl is Patsy Siner; As a public speaker she couldn’t be finer. Tommy is cute and lots of fun. But when it comes to shorthand, he’s ready to run! Then there is Jenny and Mary Lee; They both have a nice personality. There’s Pauline with her love of cats. And Edna who is sweet and shy. And last of all is me, I guess; Music and poetry are my pets. But now. we must regretfully say good-bye. To our wonderful years at Dublin High. — Peggy Jean Semones — 19 — The Maple Leaves Juniors Jean Agee Barbara Akers Clayton Akers Ruth Akers Sylviadean Akers Ramona Best William Carter, Jr. Billy Jean Cassell Edna Chewning Margaret Covey John Creger Doris Deck Jean Duncan Eddie Elkins Louise Enoch Beverh ' Farmer Dawn Farmer Gary Gaking Ginsey Ellen Grigsby David Hale I.addie Hale Frances Hall Edna Hancock Betty Harkrader Betty Harrell ISIary Sue Howe Clarence Hudson David King- Mac Lester Marie Lyons Donald Martin Douglas Meredith — 20 - Juniors Nancy Kay Micou Grace Morris Mary Lois Morris M ors ' an Morris William Nicewander Bobby Overstreet Sara Palmer Jane Parks Marzelle Phillips Gladys Rakes Claiidine Ramsey Robert Ratcliffe Louise Roope Jack Seitz Donald Shelf ey Margaret Sheffey Lauvbn Siler Arlene Smith Harvey Sprj Faye Staples Dorothy Sumner Mary Jane Thomas Bill Thompson Kenneth Tickle Kenneth Tolbert Raymond Tolbert Dailey Underwood Charles Ward Erma White Grace MJiorley — 21 — Sophomores Dickie Agee Harmon Akers Helen Akers Isabelle Bain William Barnitz Fred Beinkampen Marie Bolt Edmund Bonham Shirley Boone Robert Boyd Roy Brookman Betty Brown Robert Brnee Helen Cecil Clyde Childress Dion Dalton Dorothy DeHart Goldie Dalton John Edd Dalton Polly Dalton Betty I-ee Farmer Frank Farmer Peggy Ann Farmer Julia Flinchum .Judith Gordon Polly Haga Doris Halsey Dickie Hedge Bill Heer Lois Hopkins Janet Humphrey Tommy Jennings 22 — Sophomores uigene Jones Pliyllis Jones Alta King Doris Kitzmiller Goldie Lester Junior Lester Lima Lilly Fred Montgomery Jim Edd Morris Eugene Murdock Ellen Palmer Janice Purdy Calvin Quesenberry Dorothy Quesenberry James Rakes Noah Rakes Keith Reed I Bill Ritter Ida Belle Robertson • Bonnie Sbeafer Charlie Shouse ] Juanita Spry Betty Sumner Betty Taylor 1 Tony Vickers I Louise Weaver Wallace Weaver Elizabeth Weddle Barbara Wheeling Jack Williams Shirley Williams M arie Williamson Annalee Wilson Not Pictured: Joe Miller, Andrew Hopkins — 23 - Freshmen Frances Akers Wilmer Akers Fred Alderman Carl Lewis Bane Ruby Elizabeth Bane Kenneth Lowell Bess Willie Faye Bishop Walter Boone John Edwin Bruce Robert Chewning William Chewning Robert Edward Chinault Billie Elroy Cochran Barbara Collier Ada Myrle Dalton Lacy Wilburn Davis Barbara DeHart Johnny Donnelly John Henry East Jo Ann Eller Joyce Erps Rebecca Farmer Jimmy Roy Fisher Bernice Lee Fleenor Janice Mayie Fleenor James Marshall Ford, Jr. Eula Mae Foster Irene Franklin Annie Mae Goad Nils Haag Clarence Hamblin Hester Hamilton Bedford Harrell Sue Kathryn Harrell David Gerald Harmon Joyce Ann Hedge Doris Louise Hinkley Lonnie Hinkley Gene Hoosier Ruth Audria Hopkins Joyce Catherine Hopkins Rachel Humphries Phyllis Ann Hylton Robert Johnston Ronald Jackson Kinzer David Hughes Kirby David Kitzmiller Sherry Gay Lawson Robert Thomas Lawton Annie Elizabeth Ledford Rosa Lee Lester Patricia Lilly Douglas Clinton Linkous John Allen Linkous Betty Jo Long Barbara Swain Loudermilk Annie Mary Mabry Bertha Mabry Hensil McCoy Joann McCoy — 2 — Freshmen Paul McDaniel Bobbie McGuire Gladys Lillie McPeak Mary Lee Miles Betty Mitchell Albert Montgomery Edward Montgomery Evelyn Montgomery Areta Joyce Morris Jacqueline C.

DUBLIN vs. RADFORD The Dublin crew met the “Bobcats” September 30 on the Radford field and got their first setback of the season when the “Dukes” lost 19 to 7. The team recei -ed even a greater blow when Vernon Lance (TB) was injured and disabled for the season. DUBLIN vs. NARROWS The “Green Wave” of Narrows came to Dublin on October 7 and gave the “Dukes” one of their hardest fights. The “Dukes” won the hard fought contest 13 to 12.

It was quite a year. That same year in Burlington, North Carolina, workmen were clearing a nearby cornfield to build a small textile mill. Some local businessmen were risking their money in a bedspread manufacturing venture. That was the beginning of Burlington Mills, a company destined to play a leading role in the rise of man-made yarn from obscurity to a place of major importance in textiles. During the past 25 years Burlington Mills has grown from one small mill at Burlington into one of the world’s largest producers of rayon fabrics. It now has 74 plants in six states and four foreign countries employing over 27,000 people. Teamwork between management and skilled, loyal employees made Bur- lington Mills a textile leader. Teamwork also pro- duced the highest quality textile products at the lowest possible cost. This successful formula was possible because American free enterprise permitted constant im- provements in materials and machinery, development of our human resources, better methods of produc- tion, and an incentive for progress and growth. The formula brought better quelity fabrics to the con- sumer. It brought better jobs, higher pay, increased benefits, and excellent working conditions to em- ployees. And so, 25 years after, Burlintogn Mills wears a badge of success. Its multitude of products are truly “Woven Into the Life of America.” Sales Offices; New York, N. Y.
