It helps to initiate and for- mulate the course of conduct for the student body and seeks to lead this group in the attainment of its objectives. It sponsors all charity drives in the school and has general supervision of many extra-curricular activities. Each year in the late spring, one whole week is devoted to the election of the Student Council officers. During this week the candidates’ managers carry on the campaign with posters, banners, hand- bills, and the like. With the '51-'52 vote in, the results were: Anne Penn, presi- dent; Jack Woods, vice-president; and Johnny Viccellio, secretary-treasurer. $ s.

Ward Motivating justice throughout George Washington is the Judiciary, an important part of the Student Government in the school. This organization consists of thirteen members and a faculty advi- sor. In addition to the president, vice-president, and secretary-treasurer, there are four seniors, four juniors and two sophomores. The three officers are the same as those in the Student Council. The Judiciary tries cases in the school involving breaches of honor and proposes a suitable pun- ishment to be acted upon by the office. Only students who maintain a scholastic average of at least C and have never been called before the group arc eligible to become members. 71 y CL qnaL in hsadL Firs1 Row: Johnny ViccelLio, Hosea Wilson, Earle Garrett, Courtenay Harrison, Randolph Hall, Onico Barker, Ray Jones Second Row: Sylvia Gentry, Mary Graveley, Margie Robbins, Anne Penn Third Row: Mrs. Mabel Davis, Margie Wooley, Diana Dibble, Elva Beckham, Joyce Bass, Marie Woody, Barbara Green, Nancy E.

The National Honor Society, under the guidance of Mrs. Mabel Davis, holds its monthly meetings during school hours. Raymond Woody is president ol the society this year. Jane Turkett and Randolph Hall arc vice- president and secretary-treasurer, respectively. ■{ 72 y i fthainA, and, Shown, NATIONAL ATHLETIC SOCIETY The National Athletic Scholarship Society is an honorary organization composed of boys who must have earned a letter in athletics, maintained an average equal to or higher than the general average of the school, and who have shown the highest type of citizenship. The purposes of the society are to develop more outstanding leaders, to promote better scholastic records among athletes, and to elevate the standards of sportsmanship by setting good examples for others. It was organized at George Washington by coach Gerry Quirk and Mr. Christopher in the spring of 1946. Mr. L. G. Wilson was appointed in 1947 and has served as faculty advisor to the group ever since.

Riddle Mary Ceile Flowers Advisor Business Manager Advertising Manager Managing Editor Circulation Manager Barbara Green Editor In the fall of '51 the Cavalier staff presented an assem- bly to the student body to show them the features of the yearbook and introduce the staff members. Then a vigorous subscription campaign began with Mary Ceile at the helm. Ray and Sarah headed advertising teams, working hard to get ads from the Danville merchants and those in sur- rounding communities. To raise additional money to help meet the rising cost of publishing an annual, the staff conducted a Mr. and Miss G. W. contest, was in charge of concession stands at baseball games, and gave a bingo party. This year’s staff has worked hard to publish an annual which will rate as well as past issues, and they hope that in the '52 Cavalier everyone will find their favorite memories which will linger with them for years to come. lAnpAqtdicdbiiL The staff could lx? seen each day during fifth and sixth period working like little Trojans under the faithful guidance of Slave-driver Estes. Pete was our Rembrandt and his pictures always scored a big hit with Bobbie. Ever ready to help was the very efficient Dora who now types in her dreams those cute little ditties that were the brain- children of Sylvia and Adrienne. Everyone did his best to see that our Cavalier was better than ever. All was not work in the 209 Cavalier room, especially at Christmas. After struggling all morning we rejoiced at our luncheon. Nancy and Jane were chairmen of the sandwich committee and the men of the staff bought the Coca-Colas. We ate lunch in front of the Christmas tree which was Bobbie's contribution. After Randy had forced potato chips down everyone's throat, we began our work again. We continued until 3:30, slaving over the pictures in order to have them in before the deadline and nibbling on the left-over cookies— and | otato chips. ■{ 75 }■ GlwcujlL OtL JtopL CHATTERBOX STAFF Although the going was plenty rough at times, these so-called miserable wretches with the assistance of Mrs. Hill, always pulled through to give us the best Chatterbox ever.

Last August eight members attended the Southern Area Conference at Blue Ridge, North Carolina, and then began the school year with their own weekend retreat at Park Springs. During October the Beta Club entertained some two hundred Hi-Y members at the annual District Conference. All arrangements were made by the dub. In December they helped celebrate the 100th birthday of Y. M. C. A. by starting a new GW HI-Y CLUB (DELTA) and intro- ducing SOC-HOPPING to GWites. Probably the most important of their activi- ties was the leading of the worship programs in the assemblies. With “To create, maintain, and extend throughout the home, school, and community high standards of Christian Char- acter,” as their purpose, they strove to develop higher ideals among GWites.

If we look two years into the past, wc see a coura- geous young instructor making the most of nearly a hundred inexperienced musicians. But now, led by five spirited majorettes, the colorful G. W. marching band is proud to take to the field with their varied formations. Mr. Eugene Stryker, who received his B. M. degree from Syra- cuse University, came to Danville after completing graduate work at the University of North Carolina. In addition to directing the G. W. music-makers. Mr. Stryker finds time to instruct the Schooliicld High School band. Jeanne Justice, flute, Walton Moore, saxophone, and Bobby Haw- kins, trumpet are some of the more experienced members who form the nucleus of the band. Two civic clubs, as well as Danville's citizens, have proven their interest in the new band. We are thankful to the Rotary Club, who raised money for the instruments, as well as the Lions Club, who provided the maroon and grey uniforms. •{ 91 }• Gene Stryker, Director GLEE CLUE The GWHS Glee Club strives to develop more musical interest in our community and school. The Club has given many programs this year for Danville clubs and organi- zations and in the assemblies at school.

Miss Elizabeth Oliver, director of our Glee Club is an active member of several music and civic clubs, as well as a capable director. Before becoming director of the GW Glee Club, Miss Oliver was Supervisor of Music at Schoolfield. She was educated in several of the finest schools of America, including New York University, and the University of Virginia where she was student instructor. She has also been instructor at Massaneta, the State Music Camp. One of the greatest honors bestowed on her was an invitation to take part in a music work shop which was to formulate policies for public school teachers in Virginia. At Christmas our Glee Club presented the Messiah Officers for the Club this year are: Theodora Gouvas, president; Bobby Fitzgerald, vice-presidnet; and Hubert Wrenn, secretary-treas- urer.

In the first games the team went down to defeat to the Lane dub after a fine start. This game started the Cardinals off on the wrong foot. In the second game of the season, the Cardinal Griddcrs, in a hard-fought contest, lost by eight points to Andrew Lewis of Salem. Two blocked punts broke the Wilson- men’s backs in the early moments of the game, but they fought back to score in the third quarter. A fumble recovered by Jones Cox and a pass from Belton to Wilson Newell set up the score. Charlie Denny plunged over for the TD and an extra point attempt failed, making the final score 14-6. On October 26 at Martinsville the Cards lost a heart-breaking battle with the Bulldogs by a margin of one point. The two touchdowns for the Cardinal eleven were scored by end, Smiley and back, Charlie Denny in the last two periods. With the second and last touchdown, a pass covering 45 yards, Charles Smiley made the outstanding play of the game, but the extra point failed as Belton was smothered on a quarterback sneak. ■{ 102 y 0 OWL.

The lighting Danville team stayed in the game all the way with the score 12-12. Vic Nelson caught a pass from quarter back Ronnie Belton, and end Jimmy Turner by a key block gave the hard-fighting maroon and gray team the points that beat a team that they had failed to defeat since 1944.

Fleming of Roanoke 35 28 on their home floor. The local team began picking up and breezed tnrough their next five games with com- parative ease. Their real test came when they encountered the Hilltoppers in the Danville Armory on Friday, January 18. After being behind at hall time, the Mathcsmen fought with everything they had and near the end of the game managed to tie the score up with a push-shot by Roy Holland. Seconds later Holland cut the nets with a much-needed foul shot and afterwards Jack Woods added another which gave them the two points that won the game. In the first JcfTcrson-GW game the local five came out on top, with ease, with a 67-43 score. In their second tilt the Redbirds barely edged the Magicians 52 51 in a real thriller. On February 15, the undefeated Danville club journeyed to Lynchburg and clinched the Western District title. The Cardinals, playing their best game of the season, were never behind the Lynchburg team and, after a brilliant display of shooting by Co-Captain Mickey Crawford, they won 39-32. Craw- ford was the star of the night with eighteen tallies, but his teammates helped make the win possible by their splendid play. The undefeated Redbirds arc tourney bound at the close of the season and are out to make a better showing than they did at last year s tournament. SCORF.

GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Under the capable leadership of Coaches Betty Brown and Elizabeth Allan, the George Washing- ton Ladybirds completed the season with a record of five wins and live losses, making up a total of 298 points as compared to their opponents' 321. The Ladybirds got off to a slow start by losing to Phillip's Business College, South Boston, and Reidsvillc. In the fourth game the Lady Cardinals turned the tide and defeated Dan River High 32 to 22, and later Martinsville 29 to 26. Again they were defeated by South Boston and Reidsvillc, but again they snapped back and trampled Martinsville and overran the Schoolficld Lady Dragons twice. This year's captain, Peggy Davis, led the team with a grand total of 124 points, followed by Jackie Gammon with 78. Pat Ramsey and Rose Harper racked up 74 and 16 points respectively. Holding guard positions for the year were Joan Stycrs, Dot Ludwick, Joyce Smith, Betty Lou Keller and Billie Rae Johnson. These guards gave the opponents' forwards a tough time. The following members of the team will graduate this year: Peggy Davis, Jackie Gammon, Joan Styers and Billie Rae Johnson. In spite of this loss, the team will be left with several players who will step into the places left vacant by this year’s Varsity Scjuad. These girls have seen action in a few of the games. Rose Harper added several points in the games we played with Martinsville and Reidsvillc. Jane Flynn and Jacky Hilliard gained experience in a couple of games also.

They worked hard and did a good job. The merchants didn't have a chance against such a spirited group. By buying ads, the business men showed their willingness to support GW's yearbook and they did their part in making it a big success. The advertising squad got started with a bang. A picnic lunch was held for them in the Cavalier room after which Sarah Aron, advertising manager, gave a pep talk. In order to create competition and to make the work more interesting, the group divided themselves into two teams. On Sarah Aron's winning team were: Patt Wright, Courtenay Harrison, Margie Robbins, Jeannette Johnson, Nancy E. Riddle, Mary Ceile Flowers, and Bobbie Green. These energetic people really earned their victory. Ray Jones, assistant advertising manager, led a team composed of: Carmen Castor, Trudy Castor, Mona Barker, Bettie Thomas, Henry Gravely, Randy Hall, and Sylvia Gentry.

Let us consider the reality of WRLNKL-SHED As we look at it today, through the eyes of know-how, we wonder that it took us so long to bring forth this miracle fabric. The craft of weaving cotton had progressed through 5000 years, except that one always started with cotton and ended with cotton. Then came the dream! We would star with cotton and end with a new fibre jf} f superior fibre — which possessed not or fly all the virtues of cotton, but many other (fualities undreamed of — unhoped for — in any fabric. Thus, we achieved Wrinkl-Shed. The rest is history. But we, of Dan River, never let good enough alone. Now, how about rayon? How about vastly increased wear life? Crease and wrinkle resistance and recovery? Shrinkage control — absolute permanence, superinduced by a molecular change in fibre? Washability, not affected by chlorine and alkaline bleaches with no chlorine re- tention? Resistance to perspiration odor? Mildew resistance?
