THE COMPASS 1943 Published by the Senior Class of George Washington High School Alexandria, Virginia FOHEWO |A patriotic American is a proud American. Patriotism is a great virtue that is bom within us; it will never die, but will live forever. It is something we may always cherish j soxnctnuig w c may possess without anyone’s having the power to take it away. During these anxious days and troubled times our people are dedicated to fighting the war to a successful conclusion 'We all have a substantial hope that America will survive the toils and tribulations of war and that every person will have rh. - t say: I am an American! 1 the to CONTENTS Faculty and Administration Classes Activities MR.

The military field is helping to uphold its place by training cadets for future soldiers, and the clubs are doing their part by helping with enthusiasm and untiring effort on the home front.

VIVIAN BURKE The Quill and Palm Honor, Society selects for its members those students who, not only have a high scholastic average, but who in the estimation of the faculty have contributed most to the welfare of the school. Moreover, the organization is contributing much to the war effort by preparing its members to be better citizens after the war. By setting the rigid standards mentioned above as entrance requirements, the club is assured of getting only those students who will take an active part in its functions. By setting the club up as a goal toward which the freshmen and sophomores can work, we are helping to make them better students, and in later life, better citizens. 76 Co-Chairmen _ ..................... _ TWILA WALKER, GEORGE HALL Secretary-------------------------------------------PAULINE DUNBECK Treasurer---------------------- MARILYN MORGAN The Library Club of the George Washington High School is one of the older clubs of the school. It was originally organized in 1934 and has been an active club since then. It differs from other clubs in that it is an active club. That is, the members spend part of each day in the mechanical and clerical routine necessary in the library, and in unpacking, checking, and stamping new books.

Spelling Club President____________________________________________________________EVELYN ROSE Vice President.............................................. LORRAINE ELLISON Secretary-Treasurer____________________________________________JOAN HULFISH All the things that ever get done in the world, good or bad, are done by words. If this be true, the Spelling Gub contributes its part toward an all-out effort on the educational front, for the program of the club includes an intensive and an extensive study of words. 82 Debate Club President__________________________________________________ CAROLYN SHERMAN Vice President_________________________________________________ JAMES TAYLOR Secretary-Treasurer-------------------------------------------------ALICE HERRLEIN The purpose of the Debate Club is to prepare the debater for the interschoiastic debates. This year, the question—resolved: A federal world government should be established,” is one that will have to be solved after this war is over; one that everyone should be interested in now. We hope that, through our debates, we have created more interest in this all-important question. 83 Uiv.uVmn VAu v President___________ Vice President_____ Secretary-T reasurer. -----JANET SAXER CAROLYN SHERMAN ..CONNIE GRIFFITH Reading maketh a full man.” The world is now at war. We in America are fighting to maintain freedom, partly that we may read what we please. It is America’s honor to help carry the torch for this TcT learn to read with understanding is the chief aim of the Reading Club. 84 atic Club President.....................................ERNEST SULT Vice President___________________________....ERNEST BRAGG Secretary_______________________________JUNE KENDRICK Treasurer_______________________________PHYLLIS BROWN The Dramatic Club gives its own members training and recreation and aids the war effort, too, by building morale. The public feels free to call upon this organization for entertainment. Dickens’ Christmas Carol” was given at the USO and was well received by our servicemen. The Speech Art Class, which is an integral part of the club, became the Speech Bureau of the Alexandria Tuberculosis Association and made speeches at the leading Alexandria clubs. 85 The Christmas Carol by Diclcens has become traditional at George Washington. The students play the same parts until they graduate or outgrow the part. April 16, 1943 another set of one-act plays were produced. These pictures were made directly after the casts were chosen therefore the actors are not in costumes. In each picture the student director was ready to prompt or direct. The plays were Where the Buffalo Roam , Auf Wiedersehn”, and The Robbery. 86 87 Creative Writing Club President_____________________________ GLORIA LIVERMORE Secretary-T red surer_______________________LUCY BLACK Writing mdketh an exact man.” The Creative Writing Club was organized for the purpose of allow-ing pupils to display their literary talents. The club is divided into three groups—those interested in writing essays, those interested in the poetry secyon of the club, and those participating in short story writing. 88 Spanish Club President----------------------------------------------------------------JACK GORE Vice President---------------------------------------------------------GEORGE SING Secretary-Treasurer-------------------------------------BIRCHERD DE WITT The Good Neighbor Policy, so important to the welfare of the Western Hemisphere, is the topic of discussion in the Spanish Club this year. In accordance with a similar national movement, the Spanish Club has undertaken to learn more about the social and economic problems of the Latin American republics. A knowledge of the language and a study of the background and culture of our southern neighbors will prove very instrumental in promoting the policy of los buenos amigos.” 89 Latin Club President________________________________________________________ ALBERT BRYAN Vice President____________________________________________________EVELYN COX Secretary____________________________________________________SYLVIA GRAHAM Treasurer_________________________________________________________LOIS DUVALL The Latin Club realizes that with a club of this nature it is impossible for its activities as such to be related to the war effort. The members feel that they do not wish to disband their club and they are sincerely willing and eager to contribute their share. A committee has been appointed which will hold itself in readiness to participate in any war activity which the school may propose. 90 President___________________________________________________ NANCY LEE GOODS Secretary and Treasurer-------------------------------------CLAUDE BALLINGER The Biology Club has been contributing to the war effort in the following ways: Meetings have been devoted to chemical gardening, and discussions have been held on the current nutritional problems. Much of our information is taken from the “Science News Letter,” a weekly digest of current science facts which brings out the latest authentic news on science, day by day. At a request of the members, the meetings have been increased from twice a month to once a week. This gives the members more time in which to study science. One meeting a month has been devoted to first aid. 91 Silver Dollar President............................... KENNETH SHIPO Vice President.................................. ROBERT RENO Secretary-Treasurer..................... ELAINE MILLER The Foreign Relations Section is busying itself with making an effort to keep up with foreign lands, their customs, problems, and aspirations. Conditions that existed before the war have been discussed by a great speaker who is familiar with the situations in question, thus affording the students the chance to make comparisons. Also these students are making a study of Latin American relations. FOREIGN RELATIONS SECTION CULTURE SECTION President MARY MAYS Vice President JEAN PHILLIPS Secretary-T reasurer KATHERINE BRAWNER In the Culture Section of the Silver Dollar History Club the students are endeavoring to be useful in their own homes, to help in the war effort and also to give a hand to any neighbor who may need his assistance. In some instances it actually results in some members’ doing house chores for busy employed housewives. History Club DEMOCRACY SECTION President.................................. NANCY LEE GOODS Vice President________________________________JAMES CALLISON Secretary-Treasurer JOAN ERHART Tie Democracy Section lias been studying war problems and also has made a study of military tactics, maneuvers, ranks and insignia.

President___________________________________ HELEN LIN SCOTT Vice President______________________________ JANET REYNOLDS Secretary-Treasurer____________________________MARGARET GLOVER All during the year we have been ;tt work, picturing George Washington High School’s part in the war effort. We made posters to add enthusiasm to our drive lot scrap and metal; tor better health through proper rest, exercise and nutrition; iox larger enrollment in the cadet corps; and lor buying more War Stamps. Some oi these posters went to a state-wide exhibition oi ''Schools at War Posters” in Richmond in November. 94 Homemaking Club President_____________________________________FRANCIS BECK Vice President.......................... MARY JANE DUGAN Secretary_______________________________BETTY JO HENNESSEE Treasurer_____________________________________ANN BRISCOE In the Homemaking Club there are many ways in which the members have a chance to aid the different war efforts. Of the many courses the club offers, the most important are those in knitting and sewing for the Junior Red Cross, the study of nutritious foods as well as its conservation, and the course in Home Nursing. In participating in this club we not only help our country but we also broaden our knowledge of these subjects. 95 ercial Club President____________________________MARJORIE BOWMAN Vice President___________________________________________FRANCIS GUILL Sccretary-Treasurer_________________________________________LOLA BUTLER The Commercial Club is planning its program along the lines of information that will be most helpful to the members who are expecting to take their places in the business offices upon graduation. New books have been ordered for study, and a number of stenographers’ manuals are being used in broadening the scope of work being done by the Club. In addition, the Club is 100 per cent in its purchase of War Stamps. Students are assisting the Tuberculosis Association during its drive, and have offered their services to other organizations if they are needed. 96 President___________________________STEPHEN CHALMERS Vice President......................HARRISON TOMPKINS Secretary-Treasurer----------------------------ROBERT RUSH The Skyscraper Club, sponsored this year by Mr. Larsen, has directed its entire program to the Victory theme. To this end, boys are building scale size reproductions of airplanes, both enemy and friendly, as requested by the War Department. These models serve many vital needs; a means whereby civilian spotters may learn to recognize all types and kinds of planes; a means whereby the armed forces may also learn to recognize planes; and a means whereby the armed services simulate flying formations and positions to aid in target practice. Certificates of recognition for such aid are issued to each boy who satisfactorily complete a model. The Skyscraper Club 97 Dance President_____________________________________ STANLEY SCHERR Vice President______________________________________________GLORIA GRISSO Secretary Treasurer-----------------------------------------THELMA TREGER 98 Club Naturally, a club of this type could not possibly have a direct bearing on the war effort; however, it does indirectly help in this manner: it boosts the morale of the students, clears their minds by good clean fun, and makes them look on school as a place of pleasure, not one of drudgery. A club of this type induces friendships and gives the right touch to the job of learning.

Perhaps the most oustanding event of this year was its appearance on a statewide radio program, supplying the musical end of a Victory Corps program with Governor Darden, Jimmy Wallington, and officials. Members of the Junior Band are advanced to the Senior Band when their progress justifies the promotion. Junior Band Retail Training President_________________________________________JACK DANIELS Vice President____________________________________BETTY MEADOR Secretary-Treasurer________________________ DOROTHY BUTLER Today we are at war and we need all the help we can get. Our merchants are having a labor shortage and the Retail Training Club is helping them. The Virginia Junior Retailers Club (Alexandria Chapter) has thirty-five members who are talcing part in the war. They are filling the positions of men and women who can take a more direct part in the services. Retail Training is a successful step toward victory. Consumer Buying Consumer Buying is a course which helps us to understand our present economic system. It should help us to keep down inflation and to put both economically and patriotically. We should use our information concerning clothing, food, and shelter so that we can contribute all our time, money, and energy to the war can contribute all our time, war effort. Remember the small contributions all go to make up the large ones. L. Marlow, B. L. Haynes, M. J. Stockton, C. Lynch, M. L. Thomson, A. Umholtz. SENIOR CHEERLEADERS 1st row—left to right: L.

Sponsored by Miss Claire Miller Captain of Football Team_____MARTY FOLTZ Varsity Football The 1942 Blue and Gold gridstcrs racked up one of the best records in years, winning seven of the eleven games played. Chief mentor A1 Doran was assisted by Harry Lee, and together they whipped the Presidents into one of the most powerful little clubs in the state. George Washington dropped the “Turkey Day” clash to W. L. 33 to 6 after giving the undefeated “Little Generals” all they could handle for the first three quarters. Some G. W. backers say this might have been a different story had it not been for the absence of Captain Marty Foltz who had given such a brilliant performance the week before in scoring 25 points against Hopewell High School. Foltz was called up for duty with the Coast Guard the week before Thanksgiving. . The past campaign was a successful one, but we look for a better one in ’43 and undisputed possession of the “Ole Oaken Bucket.” . 19 . .G. W. ..40 .... G. W.- 0 G. W. ...G. W— n G W 13 G. W..

Basketball This record speaks for itself; 24 games played, 21 games won. This year’s team was undoubtedly one of'the finest ever to represent the Blue and Gold. Captain Calvin Bailey and center Joe Hensley both were mentioned on All-State and All-Metropolitan fives. The Presidents had a jinx for losing, out in semi-finals. The Metropolitan Tourney semi-final was dropped by a single goal to Eastern. The semi-final battle for the state crown was lost to Newport News by a whisper in the closing seconds of play. Still, no one will ever deny that in the year of 1943 George Washington High School really had a basketball team. 108 G.

Track and Field The track squad is composed of all new boys except a few who were out last year and two returning letter-men, Chilton Raiford and Allan Glass who are co-captains this year. Coach Doran has plenty of material to choose from because about fifty boys turned out to try to gain a berth on the team. In this number there is an abundance of sprinters, distance runners, hurdlers, and weight men. Track at this time is the most important sport because it is the best conditioning one and it trains the boys for future servee in the armed forces. The squad has seven meets scheduled at the present time; three meets at home andj four meets away. SCHEDULE April 16th—Triangular meet. Washington Lee, Central, G. W. at Central April 27th—Duel meet.

This was the problem facing Mr. Lee, our newly appointed baseball coach. Out of this group there were only five Icttermcn: Bobby Brcgman, Stanley Schcrr, Wallace Scrivener, Calvin Bailey, and Curtis Kirby. Bailey, being the only pitcher who had had previous experience, gave Coach Lee the problem of developing a smooth running organization. With plenty of practice he rounded up a good pitching staff consisting of Calvin Bailey, Wally Scrivener, Charles Giddens, Jack Wheatley, Joe Hensley, and Robert Dienclt, the only southpaw of the bunch. Brcgman was placed behind the plate, Hensley when not pitching played first, Botclcr at second, Scherr held down short, and Kirby at third. The outfield consisted of the remainder of the pitching staff and Marshall Boaz. Some of the other players are as follows: Carlton Haynes, Eddie Conrad, Donald Payne, and Albert Grenadier. LcRoy Herndon was manager, and Billy Nolan chased the balls.

Ill This year find the George Washington High School Corps of Cadets with one of the largest enrollments in the history of the school. The first semester ended with 197 boys and 100Ngirls. The second semester opened with an enrollment of 265 boys and 176 girls. This year we also have a new Professor of Military Science and Tactics. He is Lieutenant Colonel George A. Patrick, United States Army, Retired. Colonel Patrick has had considerable experience with the civilian components of the Army having served four years with the National Guard and four years with a Senior Reserve Officers Training Corps unit at the Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina. This year also saw the Corps start out without service rifles, they having been withdrawn for the use of the Army. However, through the efforts of Mr. T. C. Williams, Superintendent of Schools, two hundred training rifles were purchased for the use of 1 the boy cadets. During the first semester the Corps was organized as a battalion with three companies of boys and two companies of girls. During the second semester the Corps was reorganized into a regiment with four companies of boys and three companies of girls. Something new this year was the organization of the Cadet Advisory Council which is composed of the Regimental Commander, the two Battalion Commanders, each Company Commander and one non-commissioned officer or private elcted by the members of each company. The Advisory Council functions to make recommendations on matters of policy affecting the Corps of Cadets. Chevrons of gold braid formerly worn von the uniform not being obtainable, a change has been made to a type of chevron worn by cadets at West Point and other! military colleges throughout the country. This year also saw the organization of a Rifle Club affiliated with� the National Rifle Association of America. The Club is composed of approximately 100 cadets and within the Club there has been organized a boys rifle team nd a girls rifle team. Firing on the school indoor gallery is carried on under rules and regulations prescribed by the National Rifle Association. All in all this year has been one of expansion and growth and we all look forward to a bigger and better Corps of Cadets in the future. 112 Color Guard (Left to right) Cpl. Duvall, WH; St. Sgt.
