TIGER AMA Fourth Edition GROVETON HIGH SCHOOL Fairfax County Alexandria, Virginia 60 Reviewing our past to insure our future. The year 1960, Groveton ' s fourth and last year as a Junior-Senior High School, will be remembered as the year of evaluation, not only by students, but by the faculty and by the educational department of Virginia as well. The staff seized upon this opportunity to make available to the students, faculty, and community the results of the eval¬ uation in order that it may be a guide for the future as well as a record of the past. This presentation of the strengths and weaknesses formed during the past four years is intended to be motivation in bettering ourselves and our school in every way. In order to accomplish this: LET ' S TAKE A LOOK AT OURSELVES. After selecting a theme, the Tigera- ma staff faced the difficult task of choosing a cover design and color scheme. Following a lively discussion, it was decided that these two should help develop the theme. The blocks are an abstraction of the years in Groveton ' s history. Even as the events of this year are foremost in our minds, we realize that the past years have built one upon another, forming a foundation for this year. The year 1 960 reflects all that has happened in the four years of Groveton ' s existence. To different people, colors hold vari¬ ous meanings. To ancient tribes of Indians, red signified warmth, exuber¬ ance, and the blood of life itself. In the National Honor Society, Future Teach¬ ers, and Future Homemakers, red sym¬ bolizes character and youth. To most people, black is associated with bad or the absence of good; white, with purity and faultlessness. Between these two extremes is gray. In evaluating our school, the results indicated weaknesses and strengths — not all good, not all bad, thus shades of gray. The 1960 staff presents its Evaluation edition — not in traditional school colors — but in gray, with red, symbolizing life itself, flowing through the pages. 2 School Life Students, porents, and faculty take a look at the colorful spectacle of Groveton ' s first home football games held in the new stadium.

School Life 9 Evaluating our instructional program . . faculty committee decided that the well- planned curriculum with teachers who have wide and varied experiences, the majority of whom have had over five years of experience and thirty per cent over ten years, met the academic needs of the students. There were ten teachers serving their first year in the profession who expressed new ideas and teach¬ ing methods. In this pre-evaluation, the findings of which were to be submitted to the state evaluators, it was realized that certain improvements would better the instructional program. The faculty desired an opportunity to review new material having recently been published, a better storage space for audio-visual equip¬ ment, maps and charts, a more systematic effort to promote pupil self-discipline, and a more effective screening of students interested in advanced courses. Just as Mrs. Croom and Miss Linder eval¬ uate their students in the new language laboratory, the eighty-one other teachers find it necessary to evaluate their students and methods of instruction daily. They endeavor to present their subjects in a manner that will help each student to use his ability to the best advantage. Groveton bids good-bye to Mr. Chesley and others. Mr. Chesley, Groveton ' s first principal, opened the door and welcomed students to the new school which held its first classes in Sep¬ tember, 1956. For three and a half years, Mr. Chesley saw many of his former dreams and hopes become realities. Even before Groveton was officially open, Mr. Chesley was busy pre¬ paring schedules, hiring teachers, and making trips to Mt. Vernon High to introduce himself to the students who would transfer to Groveton the following September. As a result of his resignation in November, 1959, four staff positions had to be filled. Be¬ cause Mr. Gibbs was appointed principal, Mr. Davis, Junior Guidance Counselor, took Mr. Gibbs ' previous position as Assistant Principal. Mr. Taylor then became Counselor, which left one vacant place—that of a Social Studies teacher. This was taken by a newcomer, Miss Wellington, from New York. The old Maxim, Man is adverse to change was certainly dis¬ proved by the efficient way in which these four people assumed their new positions in Grove- ton ' s administration. THESE ALSO SERVED. MRS.

S. from William and Mary, and his M.Ed. from the University of Virginia. He came to us in our first year, serving as Head Football Coach. The next year he was promoted to the position of Assistant Principal in administration, and served in this capa¬ city for two years. With the resignation of Mr. Chesley, the School Board turned to the one person who could fill this all-important position. With his patience, knowledge, and understand¬ ing, Mr. Gibbs has contributed much to our im¬ provement and achievement. His ideas and convic¬ tions have reflected in our standards, helping us to promote ourselves and our school. For his understanding, service, loyalty, friendship, and dedication to the welfare and education of American youth, and for helping make Groveton a school of quality and high ideals, we, the staff, are pleased and honored to dedicate this 1960 TIGERAMA to our second principal, Mr. Gibbs. think Mr. Gibbs, our new principal, works long hours preparing for the school evaluation. In our first year, Mr. Gibbs served as Head Football Coach and Phys. Ed. teacher. The first football game with Mc¬ Lean found Mr. Cunningham and him drenched from the downpour. In our second year, Mr. Gibbs was promoted to Assistant Principal. In this position for two years, he found little time for a leisure lunch. ly, Rondy, Mrs. Gibbs, and Cheryl, ( arrival after a busy day ' s work at school A happy fa await Dad ' s Academics 1 3 Students enjoy many improvements made by School Board Ginnie Peirce, Circulation Manager, presents Mr. Wood- son, Superintendent of the Fairfax County School Board, with a 1959 TIGERAMA. On October 3, Mr. W. T. Woodson, Mr. Emory Chesley, Mr. Pat Cunningham, Mr. Robert Marshall, Mr. Hillis Lory, Mr. Joseph Baker, and Mr. James Linaberg participated in the dedication of Groveton ' s new football field. Due to the outstanding achievements of the lan¬ guage department, Groveton was one of the two in the country chosen by the Fairfax County School Board to receive a language laboratory. Through the efforts of the School Board, the football staduim, with drainage system and cylinder track, was completed. The bleachers, with a seating capacity of 2,000, ac¬ commodated many spectators at the home football games. Another asset was the $35,000 fence the school board helped to purchase. The cafeteria took on a new look with new chairs, tables, and drapes, while the front of the school got a new parking lot and convenient adjoining steps. The numerous items that Groveton has gained this year with the aid of the School Board have improved the program and the appearance of the school.

On November 30, Mr. Chesley ' s resignation became effective and a re¬ placements was not made until Mr. Gibbs, then Assistant Principal, was appointed on the night of December 1, by the school board. The Junior Class Guidance Counselor, Mr. Davis, was appointed the new Assistant Principal on December 10, and as¬ sumed his duties on December 1 4. Several new and well-qualified teachers re¬ placed those who left at the end of the first semes¬ ter. It took a while for these newcomers to adjust to new surroundings, but they soon grew accustomed to Groveton ' s routine. Each department in Groveton, headed by a departmental chairman, evaluated itself this year. The advantages of our present teaching methods were pointed out, and worthwhile suggestions were made. Mrs. Janie H. Gentry, Guidance Director; Mr. Gilmore Love, Assis¬ tant Principal of Instruction; and Mr. Robert Davis, Assistant Prin¬ cipal of Administration confer on school matters with Mr. George M. Gibbs, Principal. Mrs. Helen Babb, Mrs. Mary Becker, Mrs. Louise DeFrancis, and Mrs. Dorothy Williams capably assist the school in ad¬ ministration. The department heads, who played a major role in Groveton ' s evaluation are. First row: Miss Gentry, English; Mrs. Ring, Music; Mrs. Stinge, Mathematics; Miss Pauley, Phyiscal Education; Mrs. Bryson, Business; and Miss Wood, Science. Second row: Mr. Haslett, Industrial Arts: Mrs. Rabunsky, Home Economics; Miss Mulligan, 8th grade Curriculum; and Mr. Lyons, Social Studies.

These counselors not only helped students with their high school schedules, but also helped them in choosing colleges or careers. Kudar Preference Tests, which showed Groveton students the fields of their interests, were available upon request and scholarship and college entrance examinations were of¬ fered. Four days in October were devoted to the State SCAT and STEP testing program; the results of which were given in February to students and parents. The Iowa Reading Test was given in the spring. Well-informed representatives from numer¬ ous colleges were speakers on College Day, November 3. Members of the junior class served as guides for the speakers, parents, and students. For the first time, interested students from any grade could attend. During February, four days were observed as Career Week. People of many different professions informed the students of the vari¬ ous job opportunities. Later in March, a Mili¬ tary Information Day was held to inform the boys of their military obligations. Mrs. Gentry and Allan Stevens pre¬ pare a bulletin board for Career Week.

Our library opened in September with 1,000 new books and two new, hard-working libra¬ rians. All pamphlets, records, and films have been catalogued and all available magazines are protected by plastic covers. A friendly, relaxed atmosphere prevails in the library. Students may renew books and re¬ turn to their classes during the period. Whether a student ' s objective in the library is to do research work or just browse leisurely, he will find adequate information, guidance, and enjoyment. Mrs. Anderson proves to be an able assistant to Mrs. Williamson, head librarian. An informal and quiet atmosphere encourages students to make good use of the library ' s facilities.

English is one of the most important subjects taught, and is required of all Groveton ' s 1700 students. Students are given many opportunities for self-expression through the elective courses Drama I and II, Public Speaking I and II, and Journalism I and II. A better understanding of the English grammar, the works of the world ' s greatest authors, essay writing, and vocabulary enlarge¬ ment produces a well-rounded English student. Creative work, now stressed in English classes, is often given recognition in the literary magazine, Oneirata. The Drama students have produced and put on several plays, including exerpts from Mac¬ beth and An Evening with Shakespeare. Hun¬ dreds of Grovetonites attended the Catholic Uni¬ versity Shakespearan plays. Students participating in the public speaking classes have acquired a knowledge of parliamentary procedure along with speech improvement, and have started Parliamen¬ tary Practice clubs.

Anne Klein refers to a Civil War chart in her U. S. History class. Over 1,000 students were enrolled in the Social Studies Department of Groveton High School, and studied in such fields as civics, world geography, world history, U.S. and Virginia government, and U.S. and Virginia history. To make the courses well-rounded, the Social Studies teachers placed much emphasis on special projects dealing with current events. For example, several classes did projects on Premier Khruschev ' s visit to the United States, and on the President ' s European and South American travels. These teachers also encouraged Social Studies students to think ob¬ jectively and critically on world problems and contro¬ versial issues. Many students took field trips to the capital in Washington, D.C., to sit in on a session of Congress and observe the Senate filibusters on the Civil Rights Bill, toured the F. B. I. building, and visited Fairfax County Government. To help in the instruction of Social Studies, such aids as films, tape recording, records, maps, and charts were used.

Eighth graders, numbering 450, were in¬ troduced in September to the busy high school schedule. The former three-period program, ESSO, was cut down to two periods, consisting of English and Social Studies, the required 8th grade courses. For the first time, French I and Algebra I were offered to the more cap¬ able students. Presented as electives were mathematics, science, and exploratory courses in industrial arts, homemaking, general music, and art. The science program was lengthened to a full year course while the Home Eco¬ nomics and Industrial Arts were extended to a full semester. Plays, clubs, and dances were the extra¬ curricular activities open to 8th graders. A field trip to Gettysburg on April 2, and career projects during Career Week were entertain¬ ing and educational. An inaugural ball held in October for the 8th grade class, honored 8th grade officers, as did the Harvest Moon Ball in November. Their Christmas project became their charity project for the year, when they sponsored a record hop in December. This brought a profit of $50 which was given to less fortunate families in the area.

They instructed approximately 1440 students in courses such as: 8th Grade Mathematics, Mathematics I and II, Algebra I, II and Ad¬ vanced Algebra, Plane Geometry, Solid Geo¬ metry, introduction to Analysis, and Trigono¬ metry. A basic requirement of a C average was set by the Guidance Department for students continuing into higher mathematics. Seniors who took the two advanced classes of Trigono¬ metry-Solid Geometry, and Advanced Alge¬ bra-Analysis were better prepared for college mathematics work. Mobiles and other geome¬ tric designs were created by geometry students to help decorate the school for Christmas. Students were encouraged to enter mathe¬ matics projects in the Science Fair.

Grove- tonites, numbering about 1060, participated in 8th Grade Science, General Science I and II, Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Field trips created interest for many stu¬ dents. Miss Wood registered 135 biology stu¬ dents of Groveton ' s Science Department, who traveled by train to New York together with science classes of other area schools. A visit to the American museum and the Planetarium highlighted this trip. On February 11, thirty- five members of Mr. Hawkins ' Physics class went to Virginia Electric and Power Company, that furnished the lunch and transportation. Several students in the Science Department entered projects in the Science Fair which was held in March. There were many unusual pro¬ jects displayed and judged. One concerned the effect of radiation on frog eggs; another showed the effects of a rabbit when his pan¬ creas was removed and cells from a rat ' s pancreas were substituted. Newcomers to the Science Department at mid-term are Mr. Richard A Tylka, who received his B.S. from California State Teacher ' s College, and Mr. William F. Hough, who was awarded his A.B. from the University of North Carolina. rtrr OF ri ti oi yrrt, onont n? f o.f « y n IN Tnr l yoffo- N A . ir WATf i? Holt, ,r r 1.1 fkr V ' - - ■ ...

In the Physical Education and Health De¬ partment the students are instructed in soccer, hockey, basketball, football, track, archery, tennis, softball, golf, calisthenics, first aid, driver education, and health. One week of every month the girls ' and boys ' classes enjoy co-recreation. They participate in dancing, ping pong, volleyball, and badminton on these days. Through this program, many of the phases of developing athletics skills and healthful habits are introduced. Physical education teachers try to overcome inadequate space due to large classes by ro¬ tating among different stations. All but 200 students participate in a health and physical education plan, which alternately devotes three weeks to each course of study. At the end of the three week driver ' s education course Mr. Pan- ogos grades Donald Conroy on his accomplishments.

Experiments with pastels, poster paints, water colors, and oils were made by the 300 students enrolled in this department. From time to time, art students held ex¬ hibits in the main lobby and in the showcases. Together with the Art Guild, the art students made backdrops and other scenery for musical and dramatical productions. MISS GRACE V. HILL B.S., University of New Mexico Art, French S. C. A.

Music Department Offers Throughout the year, the Music Depart¬ ment provides students with a chance to ex¬ press their interest in and appreciation of music. In the chorus, students may progress during their high school years from 8th grade chorus to Symphonic choir, the most advanced chorus. The Charmettes, an accelerated girls ' group, is the newest addition to the Choral Depart¬ ment. Other singing groups are the Girls ' Chorus and the Mixed Chorus. Members of Groveton ' s Symphonic Choir were chosen to be in the All-State Chorus, which is comprised of the best vocalists from the high schools in Virginia. The Band is divided into two sections, the Reserve Band and the Concert Band. The former is a training group for those students interested in performing in musical programs as the Concert Band does. However, all cho¬ ruses and both band groups present the an¬ nual Jubilee in February. Band students are given an opportunity to be judged by com¬ petent musicians at the Band clinic, Band Festival, All-State Band, Band Solo and En¬ semble Festival, and the University of Virginia Band Day. r, • r ' v ■-v Bobby Bell, president of the Mixed Chorus, and Marie Arnette, vice- president, orrange a show case advertising the Jubilee ' 60.

Or maybe you would like to mold the metal that composes them. Five hundred boys found that Industrial Arts was the department for them. Courses offered include working with leather, tex¬ tiles, plastics, wood, and metal. These subjects not only help a student in deciding his vocation, but also serve as guides in learning to work with others. A new addition to the industrial laboratories this year was the installation of a Graphic Arts, or printing, section within the general shop. This is one of many Industrial Arts labs which provide the necessary exploration and experimentation for stu¬ dents. Mr. Kotelley and Elmer Hardbower ponder over the solution of a problem in Mechanical Drawing I. D. O. Program offers on-the-job experience. Twenty-eight of Groveton ' s students are learning various trades and service occupations in the Diversi¬ fied Occupations program. Some of the courses offered are carpentry, automobile mechanics, drafting, auto¬ mobile body and fender repair, laboratory work, and dental assisting. While in school these students are preparing for a specific occupation—one which can be entered upon graduation. The Diversified Occupations class is broken into two basic types of instruction, the generally related and the directly related courses. The latter, taking one period during the week, includes study units which are beneficial to everyone regardless of the field of work in which they may be engaged. These units may in¬ clude a study of taxing, insurance, employer-employee relationships, labor laws, etc. The directly related instructional classes, demanding four periods a week, relates to the specific field of work in which the student is to be engaged. es _ Mr. Simms meets with the officers of the D.O.

Would you like a part- time job? The Vocational Office Training pro¬ gram offers an opportunity for the student to apply the skills he is learning in school to a real job situation. This program is one in which businessmen co-operate with the school to help train students for office work during the after¬ noons. Vocational Office Training provides a chance for the student to find his real job interest while in school. It practically assures the student full¬ time employment upon graduation from high school and enables the student to earn while he learns. Joyce Smith answers the phone and takes a message at the Home Beneficial Life Insurance Company in Alexandria. Vocational Office Training students develop skills in busi¬ ness typing for their afternoon jobs. Checks are filed by Judy Mallory at the First Citizens National Bank. Mr. Thomas Michlar, an attorney, inspects Sandra Shel¬ ton ' s typing os she works at his office in Alexandria. 38 Academics aim for commercial careers. There are 600 students in the Business Education Department who were taking courses designed to prepare them for part- time or full-time jobs. Those students headed for the business world registered for courses in typing, clerical practice, shorthand, book¬ keeping, and business math. Academic students in the Business Educa¬ tion Department took typing and shorthand for personal benefit. The newest piece of office equipment pur¬ chased by the school this year was a mimeo- scope. This machine, designed for tracing on mimeograph paper, is one of many ma¬ chines used to acquaint Business students with various office situations.

Nearly 70 students accepted responsibilities by work¬ ing in the main office, student control office, guidance department, school supply store, clinic, and the library. To complete the variety of practice jobs offered to students at Groveton, 1 1 bus drivers and more than 1 3 cafeteria and hall monitors offered their services to the school.

A banquet is held at the Lazy Susan Inn after the magazine campaign for Groveton teachers, whose classes sold their quota or participated one hundred per cent. Mr. Weeks, head of custodian staff, performs his first duty of the day by raising the flag. Many of Groveton ' s students enter and depart from the school each day without noticing the less apparent, but still necessary, work accomplished. The custodians are responsible for the neat ap¬ pearance of the school ' s grounds and interior. While the nine custodians keep the building warm on winter days, the cafeteria staff of sixteen prepare for us hot lunches. Burdened by five shifts this year, they feed approximately 1,000 students daily. Members of the faculty sponsor many extra¬ curricular activities and hold discussion groups for the improvement of Groveton. They also have student-teacher and parent-teacher conferences when needed. Mrs. Dodge, the cafeteria manager, tallies the day ' s receipts. Parents serve school Student activities at Groveton are supported by some very important people—the parents. Tiger Boosters, Band Patrons, and the S. P. T. A. play a very important part in the life and activities here. Good sportsmanship in all athletic programs was promoted by the 135 Tiger Boosters. They sponsored athletic banquets, sockhops, and Intramural games, and could be seen selling programs at home football games. A stop and go projector was the Tiger Boosters ' gift to the Athletic Department. Parents of the 1 45 students who were mem¬ bers of the Golden Tiger Band, the Reserve Band, and the Tigerettes automatically be¬ came Band Patrons. Their enthusiastic support was shown as they took charge of concession stands at home games, and assumed sponsor¬ ship of the Harvest Festival dance on November 21. They also collected $1,500 worth of ads for band concerts. To increase the efficiency and interest of their meetings, the Groveton Student-Parent- Teacher Association held only five regular meetings instead of the usual number of nine. In October, a Back to School Night was held, giving the parents an opportunity to meet the faculty members. A reception was given for Mr. Gibbs, the new principal, Mrs. Gibbs, and Mr. Davis, the new assistant principal. OFFICERS OF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE S. P. T.

Parents operate concession stands during football games selling hats, pennants, and pins to Groveton students. Academics 43 Appraising our opportunities in activities . . . . . . the faculty committee found that the extra curricular program met the needs of the students to an outstanding degree. This was verified by the fact that “quality ratings were given to Tigerama when it entered conferences of four press associations, to the Drama Club when it entered District and State competition, o to the Choruses and Band in the Music Festi¬ val, and to the Debate Team through contests and critiques. It was also discovered that fifty-six percent of all students participated in some school ac¬ tivity, and that thirty percent were members of one or more of the twenty-seven active clubs. Though there were many things to be praised, the Pupil Activity Committee saw spots for improvement, such as more interest in forensics, debate, dramatic performances and the elimination of frequent interruptions of class by unrelated activities. Just as Mrs. Dolozik directs and criticizes the actors in “Alice in Wonderland in order that they may constantly improve, so the sponsors and members of the other activities strive for perfection. This is achieved only through repeated evaluations. As Shakespeare puts in “All the world ' s a stage; the people players, therefore a student participating in any activity should play his part well. aUR 5 C H D S. C.

Active Student Government Remember the schedule cards you received on the first day of the 1960 school year? The Student Cooperation Association was in charge of distributing those cards to students entering Groveton. Throughout the year, the S.C.A. worked vigorously for the student body. They supported a pep band which played at numerous athletic events, and conducted the Magazine Campaign in October, and a foreign student forum assembly on February 24. New teachers were welcomed to Groveton at a picnic in the fall. Members of the S.C.A. represented this organization at both District and State Con¬ ventions, the State Workshop, and many other conventions to which they were eligible. They also held their own Leadership Training Course on January 29. Student directories were sold during lunch shifts, and sports courtesy cards were distri¬ buted at basketball games. A new Honor Code was introduced by the S.C.A. in order to improve general school atti¬ tude, behavior, and sportsmanship. Home Room Representatives voted on the Honor System in February and approved it on a trial basis after a duscussion of its merits in the home room. Joe Powell receives the gavel from Borth Reller ot the installa¬ tion ceremony in June, symbolizing his term as president of the S. C. A. strengthens school spirit. Groveton students practice the true Christmas spirit by giving to those who are less fortunate. This is another of the many worthwhile projects sponsored by the S. C. A.

However, the school board I has generously appropriated funds for this purpose and the magazine money will we distributed among the | various activities.

I I Homecoming activities are dampened by rain, but spirits are high. High winds and thunderstorms are predicted for Saturday afternoon. Despite this gloomy warning, the Groveton-Osbourn game was played on October 24, at Lee High School. This game initiated the second annual Homecoming weekend of Groveton High. It was unfortunate that the Homecoming game had to be played at Lee, but a large crowd filled the stands despite the weather and last minute change. The candidates for Homecoming queen were nominated by the Varsity football squad, and the queen was elected by popular vote of student body. The girls were escorted to the center of the field dur¬ ing halftime as the band played The Sweetheart of Sigma Chi. The tense crowd waited breathlessly to learn who the new queen would be. At the end of the processional, Mr. Chesley, assisted by Bobbie Dahl, crowned Sandra Morris. In the last quarter the rain that had been threatening broke loose. However, a few staunch fans remained to cheer the Tigers on to a 13-13 tie with the Yellow Jackets. Sandra Morris, Homecoming Queen, is congratulated by Bobbi Dahl, 1958 Queen, and Mr. Chesley. Members of the Homecoming Court include Pat Burrell, Virginia Leonard, Sue Davis, Jackie Luce, Katie Avery, and Joyce Prifitt. (Not pictured: Beth Arbogast and Joanie Holden.) Students and alumni spend an enjoyable evening together at o dance which climaxed the events of the Homecoming weekend Perfected and polished tones from Golden Tiger Band assure good Using the newly-constructed football field to ad¬ vantage, the Golden Tiger Band impressed many spec¬ tators with their marching ability. The band presented a different halftime show at every home game, in addition to traveling to Mt. Vernon and Fairfax. Their marching season was climaxed when they accompained the choral department in the performance of the Battle Hymn of the Republic at the last football game. ► With the presentation of the Christmas Concert, December 29, the band introduced their formal concert , season, which was followed by Jubilee ' 60. This event was the result of the combined efforts of the band an ► choruses. The Spring Concert, May 6, concluded the band concert season. Richard Bowles, Assistant Director of Bands, of the University of Florida, conducted a two-day band clinic on February 25 and 26. On March 26, the band entered the District IV Band Festival, in which they played Grade VI music, the most difficult variety. The Reserve Band, composed of fifty-eight instrumentalists, is a group training for entry into the Golden Tiger Band. Due to experience gained in elementary school, many of the members are able to play Grade II and III music. At the annual Seventh Grade Nite, held in May, the Reserve Band demonstrated what the rising 8th graders could expect in the way of instrumental music educa¬ tion.

RADIO CLUB —Ray Conner, Scott Johnston, Terry Griffith, Ray Messick, Walter Scales, Alan Hoover. Visiting the Engineer Research and De¬ velopment Laboratories at Ft. Belvoir was a big event for Groveton ' s Science Club. They had the opportunity to see the electron micro¬ scope, a demonstration with liquid air, and the testing program in use for military devices. Those members particularly interested in biology spent a number of their bi-monthly meetings studying the anatomy of the cat. As a part of this study, a preserved cat was purchased for dissection. During the spring, they had their meetings out-of-doors to study the numerous forms of plant and animal life found in the area. Those students preferring the physical sciences held meetings once a week. Three guest speakers gave stimulating lectures; Dr. Harralik talked about relativity, Ralph Stair spoke on rock formations and fluorescent minerals, and Mr. Harler gave a demonstration on the effect of low tempera¬ ture. Among the many projects during the year, the chief one was sending up a balloon con¬ taining a mouse and bringing it back to earth. Flying Tigers arrouses individual initiative. They fly through the air with the greatest of ease!

The club took advantage of Funerama festivities not only to entertain the public but to announce their Air Spectacular on May 14, at Beacon Air Field. Stunt shows, combat exhibitions, and free flight models were demonstrated. These activi¬ ties provided an opportunity for those mem¬ bers aspiring to study aviation and physics to combine knowledge of aeronautics with per¬ sonal pleasure.

Many students at Groveton, in planning for the future, joined clubs designed to help them decide if nursing, business, or teaching were the vocation for them. Encouragement of greater interest in the teaching and coaching professions was the goal set by the Future Teachers of America. Four members representing the Groveton F. T. A. chapter at the state convention in Roanoke in November were Janet Mann, Reta Raybold, Sybil Phillips and Dotie Wilson. In the spring members packed their bags again to visit area colleges and universities. Many phases of campus life were revealed to them at William and Mary, Georgetown, and others. The F. T. A. planned the Name the Baby Contest held in February. Baby pictures of faculty members were displayed in a show¬ case to be indentified by students.

During February, this organization, sponsored by Miss Wilson, visited the Washington, D. C. General Hospital and the Washington Hospital Center. Speakers from the Washington Hospital Cen¬ ter shared their personal experiences as nurses with the F. N. A. members. In the spring, they were invited to the McLean F. N. A. for a tea, and later went to John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. Several important events were sponsored by the Future Business Leaders of America, such as the December Freeze on December 19.

Tiger Theater members spent long hours making the cos¬ tumes and scenery during the summe r. The success of the play led to the performance of one of the scenes at the Maryland Regional Drama Conference for Thespians, on Novem¬ ber 4. Allan Stevens received the best actor award. The following week, the Northern Vir¬ ginia Drama Forensic Clinic was invited to Groveton. This clinic, sponsored by the Uni¬ versity of Virginia, helped members of the Tiger Theater to learn the know-how of dramatics. The Case of the Crushed Petunias was presented at Annandale High School as the contest play, on February 26. It was given a distinguished rating, making it eligible for entrance in competition in the State Meet in Charlottesville on March 25. Drama Club members worked hard toward earning the ten points required to become a Thespian. Gaining these points necessitated participation in plays, and working backstage in different capacities such as make-up and costumes. More than forty of the eighty Tiger Theater members were Thespians, nineteen of which were inducted this year. Honor Thes¬ pians, the most outstanding members, were Allan Stevens, David Adams, Colleen Black- mun, Susan Goggin, and Terry Blackwell. They received the sixty required points and showed an avid interest in dramatics.

Looking over a new edition ot the Tiger Rag, editor, Janice Thompson and sponsor, Mrs. W oodard seem well pleased. Kicked off by the first joint subscription campaign of the Tiger Rag and Tigerama, the former ' s most success¬ ful year began. Service to the School was the paper ' s aim this year. With the support of 1,000 students, this organization was able to produce eight issues, including a special edition dedicated to Mr. Chesley when he resigned as principal. For the first time, a newspaper class, composed of most of the fourteen staff members met once a day. Twenty-five other club members helped make the pub¬ lication of the newspaper possible. Candy and bake sales and a sock hop augmented the financial condition of the newspaper. Other financial help was the support of the businesses through ads. During August the staff met on picnic and other social occasions, planned and launched a successful Ad Drive which ran through September. A special Easter Ad Drive was held to aid the patrons in the Spring. Mrs. Woodard, the sponsor, entertained members of the staff and their dates in November. She, with three staff members: Louisa Frank, Dudley Dickinson, and Judy White went to S.I.P.A., April 28-30.

From the time last May, when the new staff was announced at the annual banquet, until this spring, when the completed book came back from press, service prevailed as the lead¬ ing factor for these workers. This vital spirit began when fifteen members of the yearbook gained invaluable experience at the National Scholastic Press Association Conference on August 27, 28, and 29, in Washington, D. C. It further progressed during the summer-fall Ad Drive and the Circulation Drive, in the month of October. Interest and enjoyment were promoted through dinners, parties, and social festivities. Combined with service in striving to reach a common goal was the anticipation ex¬ perienced by the thirty yearbook members. Throughout the year, there were disappoint¬ ments and problems. For instance, the staff found out at the beginning of the school year that there was to be an evaluation of the entire school system in October. They decided to use evaluation as a theme. However, it was postponed until December, again until March. This made it extremely difficult for the yearbook members to build the book around this theme. Also, this year presented problems that no other staff had to face. There were many changes in the administra¬ tion and in the faculty. But because of pre¬ vious experience and training, the staff was flexible and was able to meet these difficul¬ ties. When the book hit the halls, it was a red letter day for yearbook workers. After recall¬ ing the time and effort spent during the year, the members always feel rewarded when critical analysis come from the press associa¬ tions, shown here, of which Tigerama is a member. Carolyn Olson and Jackie Wheeler assist in typing, while cub photographer, Gene Mullins, spends many long hours filing and pulling negatives. Susan Stebbins, Kathie Drake, Joni Heller, Carol Twigg, Judy Spell¬ man, Beth Gandy, cub class assistants, deliver pictures to their respective classes. 78 Activities serves our school by featuring an Evaluation Edition BUSINESS STAFF: Frances Welborn, Business Manager; Ernest Wil¬ liams, Advertising Manager; Minnie Lou Davis, Circulation Manager and Head Typist; Carol Beale, Picture Editor; Bob Hancock, Head Photographer.

I o o I I A discussion of better yearbook techniques is held by delegates who attended the N.S.P.A conference, held in Washington, D. C., on August 27-29. They i are: Kathie Drake, Ellen Shapiro, Barbie Uhle, Carole Metts, Carolyn Christmas, Emily Shohan, Marilyn Mays, Ernest Williams, Carol Beale, Minnie Lou Davis, Miss Morris, and Ginnie Peirce. Take a look at One of the major undertakings of the ' 60 staff was the Ad drive held in the fall. However, Mary Anne Beach and her losing partners postponed the entertaining of Barbie Uhle ' s winning team until January 4, making it a New Year ' s party. Combining forces, the newspoper and yearbook conducted a joint circulation drive. The planning board for the campaign consists of Jessie Weisiger, Sharon Peters, Janice Thompson, Minnie Lou Davis, and Ginnie Peirce. Producing this yearbook required creativity, flexibility, long hours, and hard work: Ellen Shapiro and Susan Stebbins lay out classes; Ginnie Peirce checks pages; Jacki Potter composes while Marilyn Mays types copy; Frances Welborn works on Tigeromo records; and Stephanie DeCamp arranges classes. Ernest Williams and Frances Welborn receive help from Ellen Shapiro in laying out the Ad section. Tigerama in the making. Leaving an empty building late one evening, the editor and sponsor, with no time to waste, gaily rush to the post office to mail book material to the publishers. Mrs. Pearl Hanson and Miss Thelma Morris carefully scrutinize the smorgasbord at the Third Annual Tigera¬ ma Banquet held at Thompson ' s Corner on May 9. Mrs. Hanson, the guest speaker from W L High School, is the sponosr of their yearbook, the Blue and Gray. After press, comes planning for another year. Bob Wagner conducts a workshop for prospective photographers, Sandra and Linda Kyles, Scott Hancock, Jim Simons, Russell Thomas, and Larry Bates. The excited delegates from the three publications grab their luggage and prepare to leave for S.I.P.A. They are Louisa Frank, Freddi Ann Berg, Ginnie Peirce, Tom Johnson, Carol Beale, Lois Sommerfeld, Mrs. Woodard, Sponsor; Maureen Davies, Phil Warden, and Dudley Dickenson. Looking in on athletic participation . r the committee found that-more than one- third of the student body took part in one of the following sports: football, hockey, basket¬ ball, wrestling, baseball, softball, track, golf, and cheerleading. Many improvements were noticed such as the spacious 2000-capacity bleachers for Groveton football fans, and the nearly 500- capacity stands for the visitors. The addition of new bleachers in the gym raised the total seating capacity to 700-800. Accomplishments of several teams are to be commended. The Varsity Five placed sec¬ ond in the County, and gained a berth in the Northern Virginia Tournament. Another second place in the County was earned by the Varsity Hockey girls. The undefeated Junior Varsity Football team won the Fairfax County Championship for the second straight year. More than 150 boys experienced athletic com¬ petition in the fine intramural basketball pro¬ gram. However, there is a definite need for a girls ' intramural program. As Mr. Gibbs and Mr. Cunningham look on the first track meet, on April 2, in which all Fairfax County Schools participated, they are no doubt very proud of the first of two tracks in the County. They recalled that last fall our stadium was dedicated, and for the first ti home games were played. 4 ELLEN SHAPRIO PAT DeYOUNG JOANNE SMITH 1 FAYE PITTMAN Cheerleaders sport new uniforms; promote school spirit. :?

Downpours, such as the one which occurred during the Homecoming game, dampened everything except the spirit boosted by the cheerleaders. In addition to leading pep rallies held at our new stadium, Varsity cheerleaders decorated goal posts and sold booster ribbons prior to each football game. Accompanying the pep band in concerts in the lobby before several basketball games and put¬ ting up signs in the gym further aroused school spirit. Programs were sold by the J.V. cheerleaders during Varsity football games. New outfits replaced those that had been worn for the three previous years. The Varsity sported black sweaters, gold collars, and gold pleated skirts with black inserts. Colorful pom-poms added a gay touch to their costumes. Although the J. V. uniforms also included a black sweater often worn in boatneck fashion, their skirts were black, with gold inserts. Miniature gold megaphones were awarded to senior members, Pat DeYoung, Betty Jeanne Knight, Doris Lilly, Faye Pittman, and Ellen Shapiro, at the annual Fall Sports Banquet.

Games with Annandale and George Washington were played at home even though our field had not yet been entirely fenced; however, this did not affect the Groveton spirit. Falls Church and Lee were the only other victories; the season resulted in three wins, six losses, and one tie. In four of the six defeats, the difference was only one point. The Homecoming game with Osbourn, played on a rain-soaked field at Lee High School, ended in a 13-13 deadlock. Fullback Julio Bentancourt received the Player-of- the-Week award after the McLean game in which he scored all 19 points. He was also honored with a position on the All-Northern Virginia team. This hustling senior concluded a brilliant four-year career in which he scored 196 points. Due to the loss to the Majors, by only one point, the Mount Vernon Kiwanis Club trophy was claimed by Mount Vernon High School. At the annual Fall Sports Banquet, Coaches Tabor, Hess, and Fern presented the various trophies for out¬ standing performances to the following boys: Julio Betancourt, Offensive Back; Bobby McPherson, Defen¬ sive Back; Charlie Pickering, Offensive Lineman; Aaron Hook, Andy McPherson was honored as Most Improved Player ; and Jimmy Julian was given the Sportsmanship Awa rd.

' s less successful. For the first time in Groveton ' s history, the girls ' Varsity Hockey team, coached by Miss Carol Pauley, placed second in county ratings with an outstanding 6-2 record. Experience may be attributed as one of the main factors in this highly successful season. Four-year veterans, Beth Arbogast and Mau¬ reen Harris, and thre e-year player Palmira Betancourt, were among several returning letter-winners. Defense was no problem as goalkeeper and co-captain Pam Dickson allowed only four points all year. Of sixteen goals scored, Faye Pittman, named Most Valuable Player, ac¬ counted for eleven. The halfbacks, also, proved themselves to be indispensable. Games with Mount Vernon, Annandale, and McLean were evenly matched, and provided thrilling moments for all. The J. V. ' s, coached by Mrs. Ingham, ended the season with no wins, four losses, and one tie. Two outstanding players were co-captain Beth Thompson and Millie Neitzy. Although the game with Fairfax resulted in a scoreless tie, the margin in every other con¬ test was never more than one point. J. V. HOCKEY—First Row: Co-Coptains Beth Thompson and Jo Cox.

They said it couldn ' t be done, but the Varsity Bas¬ ketball team consistently improves with age. It placed second in the County and finished the season with an excellent 12-8 record. The Tigers, seeded sixth in the Northern Virginia Tournament, were ousted by third place W-L, who later captured tourney honors. After winning six of the first seven games, Groveton lost five in a row, thus toppling from first place in the district. Following the victory over Osbourn, which halted the slump, five wins and two defeats were added to their credit. The first Mt. Vernon game was the best single effort, as clutch shooting paid off in a thrilling 67-66 win over the arch-rivals. Barriers such as inexperience had to be surmounted, for most players were either rookies or J. V. graduates. Only Ray Fraley and Mert Hoover had previously en¬ tered Varsity competition. These two were team high scorers with 15.0 and 9.6 averages, respectively. Fraley, sixth ranked scorer in the league, was named to the All- Northern Virginia Second Team, and Hoover received Honorable Mention. John Neary gained Honorable Mention for All- County. Merely five seniors were squad members. Fraley, a versatile performer, was the team ' s sparkplug. Pivot- man Hoover connected on lay-ups and short shots. For¬ ward Mike Rosenmarkle snagged numerous rebounds. Frank Packer and Flea Cox, excellent outside shots, made up in determination what they lacked in height.

Patsy Schools, the regular shortstop, drew Annandale as the first pitch¬ ing assignment of her three-year Varsity career. softball teams to start slowly. With the brisk air of March still in the air, candidates for Girls ' Softball teams were prac¬ ticing on the black top. Rainy weather limited practice sessions and forced the postponement of the start of the season. Returning lettermen composed the Varsity squad for the most part. Hitting was the strongest department. Sloppy fielding and the lack of a control pitcher caused the Tigeresses to drop two of the first three games. Falls Church and Annandale defeated the girls, while Lee was a victory. High scores marked all three games. Lack of experience posed a problem to the Junior Varsity team coached by Miss Mary Ann Pietro. They lost a one-sided contest to Annandale in the first game of their season. A Spring Sports Banquet climaxed the year. At this time Varsity letters and gold softballs for senior members were presented by Mrs. Jean Ingham, Varsity coach. Hard-hitting shortstop-outfielder Jean Long steadies herself before rapping out a single. Tigers early slump spoils Fronk Packer speeds to first and makes the wide turn toward second during the Fairfax game. Although the Varsity nine was rated as a pennant contender in pre-season predictions, it spoiled any chance of winning the Cham¬ pionship by dropping the first five contests. This slump at the beginning of the year mystified everyone including the Tigers. Ex¬ perience was not the problem. Many boys had been team members for two or three years. Ray Fraley, probably the best first baseman in the league, and speedy outfielder Julio Betancourt, both seniors, and played first string since their freshman year. Hurlers Billy Schools and Lefty Everett re¬ turned from the 1959 Varsity and were con¬ sidered among the best pitchers in the district. Batting, fielding, and pitching departments potentially left little to be desired; opposing teams simply out-batted, out-fielded, and out- pitched the Tigers. Home games were played at home for the first time even though sufficient stands were not available. VARSITY BASEBALL SCHEDULE Lefty Everett rounds third offer blasting a home run against Ham¬ mond. Although he batted in all six runs, it was not enough as the Admirals defeated the Tigers 8-6. Bob Stegall steps up to the plate and gets set for the pitch from his Washington-Lee opponent.

It is a seasoned team with seven players re¬ turning from the 1959 Northern Virginia Champion¬ ship team that compiled a record of nine wins and only one loss. Neither defense nor offense presents any prob¬ lems as the team is strong in both departments, but an outstanding mound staff is perhaps the best asset. Pete Denitto picked up an easy win at the expense of Fairfax; Bill Taylor came from behind to defeat W-L with clutch pitching; Bob Stewart hurled a two- hitter against the Raiders of Stuart, while he lashed out five hits in six trips to the plate.

Eligibility is based on the earning of a Varsity letter through athletic competition. Enthusiasm for improving school spirit was reflected by their efforts to promote good sportsmanship and team co-operation by introduc¬ ing a sportsmanship code. By sponsoring a sock-hop, they financed a permanent plaque to display the code in the gym.

Cheerleading, football, basketball, and baseball Eighth Grade sports enable lower classmen to participate in athletics; they cannot play on Varsity or Junior Varsity teams, for they are not yet an actual part of high school. Players gain experience essential for future Varsity inter-scholastic competition. Football season did not prove too successful as the Baby Tigers ended the year with a record of one win, four losses, and two ties. Trigger Vance was voted the Sportsmanship Award by his teammates. Only two of eight contests were lost by the Basketball team. Sharpshooters Gary Calhoun, the Sportsmanship Award winner, and the Herrera twins, Robert and David, contributed to the highest total of points scored by any Groveton 8th grade team in one season. Eighth Grade Cheerleaders were always up bright and early on Saturday mornings to spur the teams on. John Herhei, in the first home game of the sea¬ son, pitched the Baseball team to a 4-0 shut out of Mt. Vernon. Much is expected from this highly-rated squad.

Sports 1 1 1 Presenting the individual . . . paves the way for self-evaluation. Be¬ fore studying the accomplishments made by the various clubs, sports, and other available activities, it is imperative that we look at our¬ selves as individuals. We are the ones who make all the organizations what they are now. Without our individual initiative, resource¬ fulness, and display of loyalty and diligence, student organizations would not have been established. Cooperation and honesty are vital for the betterment of teacher-student relationships, and for our personal advancement. As stu¬ dents sign the Honor Code, they take upon themselves the responsibility of upholding the standards and ideals of their school. Groveton will progress only when each student accepts his responsibility of constantly improving him¬ self.

Presenting the Honor Graduates Where E ' er You Walk . . . , this year ' s commencement theme, appropriately fits the diversity of future plans chosen by the Class of 1960. From a total of 215 graduates, 60% plan to attend college, the remaining 40%, to follow nursing, business training, preparatory schools, and military service. Fifty-eight per¬ cent of the entire class maintained a 2.0 and above average. One hundred-sixty of these graduates entered Groveton when it first opened its doors in 1956, and the group has now grown to be the largest senior class. Because of the size of the class, an outdoor commencement was planned for June 9, in the stadium.

Sophomores 1 49 1 I IN MEMORIAM William Henry Alvarez, better known to his fellow students as Alvy, left us on December 5, 1959, after a fatal automobile accident. Alvy was active in all sports, including football, basketball, and track from his 8th grade through his sophomore year. His friends will long remember him for his easy¬ going and friendly personaility, and are comforted by the following: When we are called to part It gives us inward pain, But we shall still be joined in heart, And hope to meet again. This hope removes all pain, From sorrow, we shall be free, And perfect love and friendship reign Through ' all eternity.

Tigerama ad salesmen found businesses that expressed an avid interest as we ' ° s a qreat deal of respect for Groveton High. Con¬ tacts for ads held in October and early Novem¬ ber resulted in ninety-four commercial organi¬ zations cooperating in the publication o Tigerama ' 60. Student representing our year¬ book profitted by the valuable experience • gained from meeting the public and felt that many good relationships were made with the business community. L After taking a look at previous ad drives the staff worked toward the improvement and attractiveness of this section by using more pictures. Tigerama urges students!and parents to patronize these stores. Before the official Christmas shopping sea¬ son began, the Advertising Manager distribu- - ted lists of the businesses featured here As is pictured, some Tigers decided to ' do their Christmas shopping while getting ads. if. The ham, tender and juicy, is tackled with hardy efforts by Jack Tidwell and Miss Morris while the rest of the club eagerly waits. Could I interest you in an ad in our yearbook? inquires Sandy Shelton of Bob Wagner while Jack Tidwell makes out a contract in a skit demonstrating the proper way to get an ad. Ernest Williams, Ad Manager, explains the ad drive theme to the two team captains, Barbie Uhle and Mary Anne Beach, acting os safari guides. Into deepest Africa in search of a Tiger was the theme of the 1960 TIGERAMA Ad Drive. The yearbook members divided into two teams, and chose a goal of $1960. The hunt began after the Kick-Off Banquet was held in the Home Eco¬ nomics Department on October 15. On November 31, the campaign came to a close; the Tiger had not been found by the hunters and the goal was not reached. To the victor belongs the spoils explains why Mary Anne ' s team gave a party for Barbie ' s win¬ ning one at the end of the campaign. ™ QSt k ' fe ' The yearbook members enjoy the annual Ad Kick-Off Banquet while eating baked potatoes and ham.

CLASS OF 1960 Ads 187 In preparing for the forthcoming evaluation year, the entire faculty di¬ vided into committees last spring, and mode a study of the various de¬ partments and activities and reported on their findings. Seeing ourselves As the Evaluation Committee looked in our school on March 27, 28, and 29, they, too, saw it in shades of gray. The following is an ex¬ cerpt from the report: The committee commends the school for the interest and enthusiasm displayed by the faculty and the student body; for the fine spirit of cooperation evidenced by the excel¬ lent relationships between pupils and teachers; and for the contributions made by an active S.C.A. The extra - curricular program has enough variety to meet the pupil needs; and the availability of time, facilities, and super¬ vision to complete this activity is to be com¬ mended. The faculty and staff are to be com¬ mended for their preparation and planning in the subject matter areas and for the effort made to relate these areas to pupil require¬ ments. f On Sunday night, March 27, a reception was held for the Evaluation Committee. Mrs. Dolozik was one of the many who gave preliminary reports. I Monday afternoon found Mr. Elmer Tarrall, Mr. Donald Griffith, and Mr. Warren Littleton working in the teachers ' lounge, the committee ' s headquar¬ ters, on reports of their classroom evaluation. I Tuesday night, the faculty held a buffet supper to get acquainted with the committee members and to get their reactions after observation. Mr. Hough and Mr. Allen Mandell, member of the Science Committee, look in at an experiment in the chemistry lab. t as others see us. Among the suggestions for improvement were these: 1. Continue to enrich and develop the pro¬ gram of studies by adding additional sub¬ jects. 2. Make increased effort to use the extensive community resources in this area. 3. Increase remedial facilities and adjustive services. 4. Consider needs of pupils not continuing education, and plan schedule and offerings accordingly. The committee appreciates the full co¬ operation and assistance given by administra¬ tion, faculty, and pupils of Groveton High School. This greatly aided the study, and the committee sincerely thanks these groups for their interest and participation. Mr. Robert Maidment, Head of the Pupil Activity Com¬ mittee, discusses the extra-curricular program with the S.C.A. Cabinet. Upon looking in on the procedure of this English class, Miss Gladys Miller leaves after her satisfying observation. r the student,, 0 f ro C O A £ im ’ � £££ ... 4 . 4 ' „ 1 pU Tort To ,U Mr. Warren Littleton and Mr. MacRae admire the new Honor Code plaque, while Tom Russo and Liz Odoroff, members of the Ethics Com¬ mittee, rejoice at their efforts. Mrs. Williams spent all day typing reports for the Evaluation Committee before they left. Mr. Gibbs happily receives the evaluation reports from Mr McRae, Head of the entire committee, just before they left on March 30. Now that we ' ve reviewed school life, let ' s take a look at world affairs, says Bob Hanson to Muffy Leahy, John Mark, Nancy Goers, and Wayne Goad. r 1 90 Conclusion Evaluation stimulates further challenges. Now that our presentation of this evaluation is completed, we challenge you to look critically at your individual and group activities. We hope this gives you an opportunity to review the de¬ velopment and accomplishments of Groveton High School, while reminic- ing on pleasant memories. Only as we recognize and profit from our short¬ comings, as well as our achievements, will this evaluation be of worth. Evaluation must not stop here. For those of us who return in September, we must continue to look at ourselves and improve until the shades of gray grow lighter. And to those who leave in June, may the experiences here help to make citizens who think critically and con¬ structively in national and interna¬ tional affairs, so that all may live in a world of peace. May we find strength for tomorrow in taking a look at our¬ selves today.
