George Washington High School Alexandria, Virginia Volume 23 FOREWORD Throughout the pages of the 1959 Compass, the rays of an imaginary spotlight capture the year’s events at George Washington High School. As the spotlight revolves around and around, it shines upon the faculty and students of GW. Moving steadily, it focuses upon them as they go about their endless work. These are the main elements which it captures as it travels throughout the activities of the school year. GW is spotlighted as the scene of plays, dances and other extra-curricular activities. The rays shine on the various sports that are participated in by the many students. As the spotlight rotates throughout the school, it catches the cadets as they practice marching on the drill field. These constituents play an important part in the year's events that are recalled as we turn the SPOTLIGHT ON GV Spotlighting GW HAIL GVP HIGH—Our school stands deserted at the end of a long day. 4 ALMA MATER We sing our praises to our school, George Washington its name.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Memories were full for the graduating class of 1959- The joys and sorrows of each preceding year were shared by each student as the year drew to a close. As freshmen, the class of 1959 elected the class officers and participated in clubs and other extra curricular activities. Upon becoming sophomores they added to these activities two charity dances: one, a toy dance; the other, a food dance. Juniors at last, they were all proud to be up- perclassmen. Class cards were sold to finance the sending of selected students to Boys’ and Girls’ State. The class was also the sponsor of a Christmas dance. Highlighting their senior year was the annual senior class play in the spring and Senior Day in December. The receiving of invitations to the Junior-Senior Prom and attending the Senior Prom closed the social year. The receiving of diplomas served as the grand finale of their high school careers. ACCORDING TO THE CALENDAR”—says Rockic Fera acting Principal for Senior Day. We have a week vacation coming up. Jean Turrcll and Jim Thyng a Mr . Tolbert and Mr. Garner agree completely.

These were voted on in the winter and were chosen from both the January and June graduating classes. One girl and boy were selected for each category: most popular, best looking, most scholarly, most athletic, wittiest and best all around. Chosen most popular in their class were Pat Hobbs and Rockie Fera. Pat Hobbs was also selected as the best looking girl while the best looking boy was Jeff Wolford. Barbara Slate and Chuck Adams, the most scholarly, were chosen for their outstanding records. Selected for their athletic ability were Lois Gladden and Joe Ritenour. The clowns of the class were Gwen Gianniny and Bill Dempsey. Chosen best all around were Sally Monroe and Rockie Fera.

Blue and gold royalty FOOTBALL QUEEN Pat Hobbs was crowned the 1958 GW Football Queen during the half-time ceremony of the GW-Groveton game. It was the first time that the GW Football Queen was not crowned during the Thanksgiving Day game with Washington-Lee, as it was an away game. Sandy Fortenberry, Sally Monroe, Mary Ann Ramsey and Sandy Schillinger composed the court. The Queen and her court were chosen by the student body from a list of twelve senior girls nominated in senior home rooms. From the top five girls, the football team chose the Queen. ROYAL LADY—Pat Hobbs was elected Football Queen. CADET KING AND QUEEN For Cadets, one of the most important events of the year was the annual Cadet Ball. Members of GW’s Cadet Corps were the only ones able to attend this dance. The climax of the Cadet Ball was the announcement of the Cadet King and Queen. They were crowned during the dance. Prior to the dance, nominations were made for the royalty. CADET QUEEN—Sue Jacobson was elected by the Cadets to reign as Queen for their annual Cadet Ball. VALENTINE QUEEN During February, the Majorette Club sponsored the Valentine Dance. This annual dance was held after school in the GW cafeteria. The highlight of the dance was the election of Sally Porter as Valentine Queen. Each of the four classes put up two candidates for queen. To identify themselves, the eight candidates each wore a red ribbon in her hair several days previous to the hop. The queen was voted for by the students who attended the dance. QUEEN FOR A DAY—Carol Wright. Noraica Willoughby, Frank Norccm, and Lou McCullen watched Roger Craddock crown Sally Porter queen of the Valentine Dance. 46 3 down and 1 to go JUNIOR CLASS This year’s junior class was one of the largest in the history of GW with 348 members in it. It was sponsored by Miss Eunice Guill and Mrs. Blanche Meadows. During the latter portion of September, class rings were ordered by those who wanted them. Junior class cards were sold by the representatives of the Junior Board to raise money for the class. With these cards, a junior could get into most junior class functions without cost or with a discount. Over the Christmas holidays, the class sponsored a dance. Another junior class project was the Junior-Senior Prom. This annual dance, in honor of the seniors, was held in May.

SOPHOMORE CLASS The sophomore class, as always, played an active part in the student body at GW this year. At Thanksgiving, the class sponsored a food dance in the gymnasium during two activities periods. The first activities period the freshmen and sophomores attended the dance and the second day during the activities period the juniors and seniors patronized the dance. The food which was collected at these dances was then donated to charitable organizations in the Washington area. In the same manner, the sophomore class also sponsored their annual Christmas Toy Dance. Second year scholars SOPHOMORE BOARD REPRESENTATIVES—Front Row: Garland Cole.

FRESHMAN CLASS On the first day of school, a class of 533 freshmen was ushered through George Washington High School by various members of the Student Council. The students were given copies of the S.C.A. handbook, Guideline.” After that first day at GW, the freshmen did a great deal for their school. In the spring, a record hop was given by the class. A portion of the money from the record hop and the class dues of twenty cents per person was used to pay for the freshman section of the Compass. Class co-sponsors were Mis Eleanor Currin and Mrs. Mary Moreland. The class supported the various sports, plays and dances of the school and contributed to the school spirit of GW. The future of GWHS depends on the freshmen in the spotlight each year. FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS—President.

MARCHING MAJORETTES As the year passed, the Marching Majorettes performed for many activities. They aided the Senior Band at all of GW’s home football games by marching during the halftime ceremonies. The girls strutted at two parades this year, the George Washington Birthday Parade in Alexandria and the Apple Blossom Parade held at Winchester, Virginia. They also participated in numerous public activities. The girls who were Marching Majorettes trained new girls. These new girls then composed the junior varsity squad. The afternoons when the varsity majorettes did not have practice were spent teaching the JV squad. This system of having two squads of Marching Majorettes was new at GW this past year. JV MAJORETTES—Carol Young and Katy Hick were selected as a new part of the Majorettes for this year. 96 Precision plus MAJORETTE CLUB Acting as a social group for the school’s benefit was the main function of the Majorette Club. During the meetings of the club held each club period, members planned parties and an annual dance. They also ushered at many school activities held in the auditorium throughout the year. In order to become a member of this club it was necessary to have satisfactory skill of the four basic baton twirls and be approved by club advisor, Mrs. Grace McGilvray. The club had a Valentine dance to raise funds for its treasury. A Valentine queen was chosen from eight girls equally representing each class.

GW—0 ANNANDALE—14 In a penalty marred opening game, GW went down to defeat at the hands of the top-rated An-nandale Atoms for the first time in the history of the schools’ encounters. The Prexie line, totally outweighed in offense, proved ineffective in the air with three Atom interceptions throughout the entire game and met with little success on the ground. The defense, however, successfully beat off most of the Red and White’s attacks, allowing An-nandale to visit the end zones only twice for a total of fourteen points. GW—13 McLEAN—13 With one game under their belts, the Presidents showed marked improvement in the closely played McLean game. McLean scored a touchdown in the early moments of the game but was held by the hard-fighting Prcxies for the remainder of the first half. After the first half, the Presidents really began to move. They pushed across two touchdowns but in the closing moments of the game the Eagles managed to equalize the score with a long pass ending the game in a 13-13 stalemate. GW—7 FAIRFAX—26 Lack of consistency proved to be the major problem as George Washington was defeated by the Fairfax Rebels. The Presidents marched down-field many times on their way to a touchdown, only to be stopped cold. Fairfax defenders showed a great exhibition of speed and broken field running on two pass interceptions which resulted in TD’s. Fairfax’s other two touchdowns resulted from line smashes for short yardage. GW’s only score came on a 30 yard pass from Jim Arnold to Joe Shamburg with 40 seconds remaining in the game. Ritenour made the PAT and the game ended 26-7. GW—2 HAMMOND—19 In the second annual cross-town battle for supremacy, GW held Hammond’s backfield to six points for three quarters of the game. In the second quarter, Hammond scored with a 16 yard off tackle slant. The Presidents’ only score came from a safety in the same quarter on a bad pass from center to a Hammond kicker that bounced out of the end zone for a safety. In the last quarter, GW’s defense tired and could not keep up with the Admirals who scored on two long runs. THROUGH THE BACKFIELD—comes Jay Jennings (64) as he picks up 20 yards. Fullback Everett Rcvcrcomb (10) of McLean is making the tackle. 115 It’s a wow THE FAIRFAX GAME—finds James Thyng waiting anxiously to go back in. GW—7 TJ—20 Hosts to TJ, GW’s use of a new offense was rendered helpless by an extremely strong defense. The Presidents of Richmond scored three times in the game. The first 6 points came in the first quarter with 7 in the second and 7 in the fourth quarters. GW’s only score came after a TJ fumble on their 16 yard line, in the fourth quarter, on Bobby Gore’s plunge from the one yard line. The TJ game ended several plays later with TJ on the long end of the score 20-7. GOOD GOING—Coach Base from USC. commends Jay Jennings and Joe Ritcnour. GW—12 WAKEFIELD—32 Wakefield’s fast improving team utilized its speedy backfield to hand GW its fifth defeat in six games. The Warriors jumped off to lead after 6 minutes of play had elapsed, when fullback Newt Whittaker plunged across for the score and the PAT. They also scored again during the first half. Behind the throwing arm of Jimmy Arnold, the Prexies offense clicked for two T.D.’s, in the second quarter before bogging down after the half. The Warriors proved too much for the hardfighting Presidents, and scored three times in the last half to win 32-12. GW—6 HOPEWELL—37 Although GW’s injury-ridden team was soundly rapped by the powerful Hopewell Blue Devils, a long-standing school record was broken on a 99-1 2 yard run by Doc Oehm. Oehm’s off-tackle 4th quarter run proved to be the only bright spot of the evening, however, as the Blue Devils were supreme throughout the rest of the game. While holding the Blue and Gold, they scored five times during the contest and capitalized on a Prexie error to gain a safety and win 37-6. AWARDS An unsuccessful season did not prevent the Prexies from winning several awards at the annual awards banquet. 205-pound tackle Joe Ritenour was selected as the most valuable player by the varsity squad. Fullback, Co-captain Jay Jennings, received the Dinky Scott trophy for being the outstanding player in the Annandale game. Again this year GW received the Jack Tulloch Memorial trophy for beating Mt. Vernon. Trophy for the most improved player on the team went to Ralph Stone. Marvin Bass of USC presented the awards. TOM KENNY Co-Cap a in JAY JENNINGS Co-Captain 116 GW—7 MOUNT VERNON—6 GW’s heretofore winless football team finally entered the win column against favored Mount Vernon in their annual struggle for the Jack Tulloch Trophy. The Prexies, playing better than the 7-6 score indicated, kept MV from starting any drives, while the GW line broke through consistently. In the 3rd quarter, Jim Arnold scored from a yard out. His kick was good. In the 4th quarter, Mt. Vernon returned a GW boot 95 yards for their only score. The PAT was blocked and Mt. Vernon was held for the rest of the game. GW—13 GROVETON—7 In spite of a weak beginning, the Prexies came back strong to beat favored Groveton, 13-7. The Tigers got off to a fast start following a GW fumble when star speedster Julio Betancourt went over end for a 37 yard score. Several minutes later in the same period, GW roared back with a drive that ended with Jeff Wolford's two yard score. A Tiger fumble in the third quarter gave GW the break they needed, and Wolford scored again to make it 13-7. GO—says Mowr (-15) of Me. Vernon at Harold Maditon (57) gains ground. AROUND FND—scoots Jeff Wolford (’2) as Robby Cloyd (4-0 tackles him. GW—0 W-L—6 GW's determined varsity played its finest game of the year but lost to Northern Virginia Champions, W-L, in the annual struggle for the Old Bucket, 6-0. Out-playing the Little Generals most of the game, the Presidents were plagued by fumbles due to the bitter cold. The crucial play was W-L halfback Bob Key’s runback of the second-half kickoff to the Blue and Gold 35. A few plays later, with a fourth and five situation, the Generals skirted end for the TD. The stalemate resumed and continued for the remainder of the game. 117 Come on Prexies GEORGE WASHINGTON'S—John Monroe gets set to give signals in a pre-season warm up on the right corner of the home stadium. The center is Chuck Wcatherhead. The two backs are Earl Elliott and Don Waybright. The play is a cross buck. JV FOOTBALL Under the direction of Coach Green, the JV squad compiled a two-win two-loss record. The cocaptains of the last game, elected by the team were: George Simpson and Jim Barnes. The team suffered from a leaky pass defense and fumbles. However, it was a good offensive ball club exhibiting strength in the split T” and belly scries with able quarterbacking. The team finished the season with a victory over Hammond. JV FOOTBALL—Front Row: Steve Vermillion, Don Shuman, Bill Field. Ed Lusby, David Katz. Ron Finclli, Bill Marsh. Second Row: Joe Coker.

The team started the year off right by trouncing Fairfax, but then lost to a strong W-L team. They were also good enough for 3rd place in the Northern Virginia Meet and 7th place in the State Meet. A good measure of GW’s success this season was due to the record breaking Garten and another returning letterman, Ernie Loomis, who also figured prominently in the GW victories. Garten broke a number of state and local records for the mile this year. He was undoubtedly GW’s outstanding runner in recent years.
