OUR MICROCOSM ♦ ♦ ♦ A WORLD WITHIN A WORLD Published by The Riparian Staff of GREENSVILLE COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL Emporia, Virginia Tilton Ogburn Lane Pruett . . Ames Brothers . Editor . Assistant Editor Business Manager A TV Prologue Within these pages we shall portray the complex world of Greensville County High School. There are two worlds: the world that we can measure with line and rule, and the world that we feel with our hearts and imagination. Leigh Hunt We work, ploy and think together through the many worlds opened at G. C. H. S., whether it be the anticipating moments during a bosketboSi gome, paus¬ ing at the water fountain between classes, or drilling through that certain section of the parade march 6 Although engaged in a world of endless studies, we manage to find time for fun and excitement. We dance to the music of ' The Escorts under the misty sea. We enjoy a bit of fresh oir after lunch. We dedicate much time and energy to decorating the goal posts before each home football game. 8 Experience is gained Ithrough varied activities opened to us, whether it be presid¬ ing over a class meeting¬ taking part in leadership, participating in sports — leading the team to victory, delving into the unknown— always striving to discover. 9 In our constanf seeking for knowledge, we often refer to the sources of information in our library, taking time to be serious and to collect our thoughts. As our faculty guides us to the appreciation of music, our aims are finally rewarded. 10 A world of classes, teachers, art, sports, music, proms, friends, studies . . . eoch is on integral part of 11 OUR WORLD.

Early in the school year Ames Brothers, Myra Poarch, and Glenda Grizzard began to make plans for the annual scrapbook. 78 Sails For S.C.A. Action-ship Gay Vacca; Tee Barfield; Lane Pruett, chairman; Peggy Brothers; Kitty Bar- field; and Joyce Rae checked the students ' extracurricular activities to deter¬ mine if anyone was carrying more than his quota of points. As the student governing body of the school, the S.C.A. Council discusses freely and thoroughly many important school matters. The members work to promote better stu¬ dent-teacher relations and to encourage student cooperation and participation in school activities. The S. C. A. checks the point system governing student par¬ ticipation in activities. It also keeps the honor and sugges¬ tion box in the office to en¬ courage students to work with honor and to express any ideas that they feel might improve the school. Also included in the numer¬ ous projects are the sponsoring of spectator buses to many sports activities, placing of posters in strategic spots throughout the school to re¬ mind students of their duties to their school, compiling a scrapbook of school events, and sending cards, papers, and letters to the alumni in Viet- Nam. Jimmy Jones and Donnie Clem¬ ents carried the spirit chain completely around the football field. The chain boosted school spirit during the first outdoor pep rally. Mary West mailed Christmas cards to former G. C. H. S. students serving in the armed forces overseas. ( 79 High-Stepping Eagles Represent Virginia I I 1 !

The birds, residents of St. Petersburg, Florida ' s Sunken Gardens, are only two sights the band saw as they represented Virginia in the Festival of States competition in April. The band has won recog¬ nition throughout the states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, and Virginia in winning first place at Frederick Military Academy ' s competition, second place in Williamsburg, the Grand Award at Portsmouth, and in excelling in marching drills and colorful exhibitions.

The band officers are Debbie Adams, secretary; Diana Wright, treasurer; Barry Rae, second lieutenant; Ray Sasser and Jerry Carpenter, first lieutenants; Betty Martin, honorary captain; Nancy Blose, assistant captain; Michael McDilda, captain. A new addition to the band was the herald trumpets. Betty Martin, solo cornetist, proudly displayed the trumpet during “The Star-Span¬ gled Banner at each home game. Adair Clark, a senior, enthusiastically led the “Marching Eagles in many fine performances and superior drills as drum majorette. She attended St. Andrews College last summer, at which time she took private lessons in drum majoring. 82 Eagles” Conquer Many Competitions An excellent addition to the band — the color guard and honor guard — practiced many long and hard hours in presenting amazing drills.

As the school year opened, many students joined one of the five Hi-Y or Tri-Hi-Y clubs for the first time. All members helped make the year one of the most suc¬ cessful ever remembered. Some of the programs in which the Y clubs participated were Massanetta Leadership Training Program, Jr. Hi-Y Assembly, Model General Assembly, District Conference and the Officer Workshop. Activities which the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y clubs sponsored were public induction of members, sale of school ribbons at homecoming, sale of Christmas cards, annual talent show, and the Easter sunrise service. A few of their many services to the school were daily devotions and blessing and bulletin boards.

Activities Neville Watkins, Linda Williams, Kelley Vaughan, and Donna Ondich check the schedule for adult night classes. These things will I do now that I may be worthy of the high office of teacher. The motto of the A. G. Wright Chapter of the Future Teachers of America is displayed throughout the year as the club instills within its members qualities of leadership, helpful¬ ness, moral discrimination, mental vigor, and a whole¬ some personality. To show their respect and appreciation for the teachers of G. C. H. S., the club members sponsor Teacher Appreciation Week. During this week the members aid the teacher in room maintenance and give the faculty a small tea at which time gifts re¬ presenting the specific subjects are presented to the teachers. For the past two years the F. T. A. has sponsored tutoring classes at the Emporia Elementary School. The F. T. A. also supplies the teachers ' aides for the adult night classes. The year was highlighted by the state convention, which three delegates attended, and by the annual college trip. The delegates to the 1967 State F. T. A. Convention were Peggy Emory, Debora Wornom, and Sandra Zalmon. The college trip provided members a closer look at their future and the educational re¬ quirements. The club provides opportunities for students to ex¬ plore educational careers, to evaluate aptitudes, and to interest the most capable in education as a life¬ long career. Kaye Clay sells a G. C. H.

I- . 119 Eagles Rally After Loss To Southampton Emporia 19 Brunswick 0 This year the Eagles and the Brunswick Bulldogs met at the Eagles ' home field. After losing 7-6 to the Bulldogs at Brunswick last year, the Eagles were determined not to let this one get away. Although the Bulldogs were equally determined to win, the Eagles were flying too high. The Eagles totaled ninteen points while holding Brunswick scoreless to take record place in the district championship. Emporia 19 Crewe 13 The Eagles barely squeezed in a victory over the Railroaders of Crewe. At the half the score was tied at six points, but in the third quarter Crewe surged ahead 13-12. However, in the closing minutes Bill Skinner got the go signal on an eleven-yard touchdown run to give the Eagles the 19-13 victory. Emporia 27 Bluestone 14 Going into this game tied with Bluestone for the district title, the Eagles were deter¬ mined not to let this game escape them.

A victory for either team meant first place for the winner. Emporia 36 Pork View 13 Although Park View led the first quarter in this decisive game between the Eagles and the Park View Dragons by a score of 7-6 and also stretched this to 13-6 in the second quarter, the Eagles were able to come back to lead at the half 15-13.

Together these jobholders contribute more than $25 billion to the gross national product. The American Tree Farm System, which celebrated its Silver Anniversary in 1966, helps to sustain and expand this economic wealth. The System is one of the most im¬ portant factors in maintaining a favorable balance of this nation ' s most valuable re¬ newable resource. A leading member of the System, Georgia -Pacific ' s dynamic conservation policy maintains that tree farming means healthy and productive forests perpetually . . . that it provides additional benefits consistent with the primary purpose of growing trees as a crop. . .that it means greater national strength and better living. Tree farming is best for all of the people, not just a few!
