Hampton High School - Krabba Yearbook (Hampton, VA)

Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1944 volume:

■ THE TWENTY-SECOND VOLUME OF THE KRABBA THE ANNUAL PUBLICATION of the STUDENTS of HAMPTON HIGH SCHOOL Hampton, Virginia Hhe Xrabba Page Two im FOREWORD In view of the great sacrifices being made at this time by our fellow Americans all over the worlds any curtailments we have had to make in this, our annual publication, seem slight. The KRABBA has been planned and compiled to give a glimpse of Hampton High School students in their classes and in extra- curricular activities, and it is the sincere hope of the members of the staff that in the future this book will be a treasured reminder of days spent at our “Alma Mater”. Page Three dedication With pride and respect, the Staff of the 1944 KRABBA dedicates this book to Miss Mabel Spratley. In her years at Hampton High School, Miss Spratley has shown unfailing understanding to the student body, and her kindness and courtesy have en- deared her to all. At this time the staff would also like to express its appreci- ation for her great service in the school War Bond drives. Page Four H. Wilson Tkorpe B. A., College of William and Mary M.

We, the mighty leaders of grammar school, become lowly “rookies” in that famed institution, high school! After the somewhat embarrassing initiation, wd join the degraded ranks of freshmen resembling our ancestors of yore— the wild American Indians! Of course, red and white are the predominating colors. Under the heartless stare of upper-classmen, we timidly take our places among seasoned veterans. After several weeks of utter confusion, we “get the hang of things”, and begin to feel not quite so insignificant. The football season adds prestige to our now distinguished statures of being high school students. On Thanksgiving Day there is the usual Hampton vs. Newport News game We are rough ’n’ ready and ratin ' to go, and hold the Typhooners to a 0-0 tie. After so-o-o long, the hopefully awaited Christmas holidays become a reality. After a week of fun-making, we resume our burden, elect officers, and struggle on to June. SEPTEMBER 7, 1941 We’re up one more rung of the ladder of knowledge. We carry ourselves with a bit more dignity for at least the freshmen must look up to us— at last! Once more the football season comes and goes and with it the glorious event of the year, the Hampton-Newport News gridiron gala. After a rootin’ tootin ' battle, the game ends this year as last, a 0-0 stalemate. Another highlight of the football season is an upset in the form of Glass High School of Lynchburg. Ah, did our team go places! We, the under- dogs, defeated the Senators 20-6. This gave our team a bit of publicity and made us just a wee bit favored over the Typhooners. Our basketball season was rather rugged. H. H. S. won only 5 out of 11 games, but there were “oodles” of thrills, nevertheless. December 7, 1941 marks a startling change in our lives. War comes crashing headlong into our serenity. Although our hearts are low, our chins are high as we enter smilingly into the Yuletides season. The New Year finds us once more engrossed in readin’, writin’, and ’rithmetic. Richard Imus is elected the esteemed leader of our Sophomore group. After a serious epidemic of “spring fever”, we finally get a well-deserved recuperation period. SEPTEMBER 10, 1942 Radical changes have been made in our Junior class, for something has definitely been added. Newcomers from George Wythe and Phoebus Page Twenty-four Junior High Schools make a well-rounded class. Thus we enter into a record-breaking, history-making year. There are thrills, thrills, and more thrills! AND what a football team-!! Our super-duper eleven wins the Class A State Championship and trounces oP Newport News to boot. The underclass girls gaze rapturously with heartfelt! adoration at the “hunks o’ men” who comprise the glorified team. The sentiment, “What a man!” is frequently expressed in regard to the “pigskin sinn ers”. We sail smoothly (?) through mid-term examinations and on to spring. A capable group of officers are elected in the persons of George Field as President; Jackie Watson, Vice- President; Anne Page Violette, Secretary; and Charlie Powell, Treasurer. June brings the eventful Junior-Senior Prom. This, being our first real participation, is taken to heart. There prevails a repressed sadness, however, for we must bid adieu to our school-mates, who leave to make their places in the world Soon we must follow in their footsteps. SEPTEMBER 9, 1943 At last! We have reached the top of the ladder and are seasoned veterans. Our class constitutes the executive power of Hampton High School. It’s been a hard struggle, but we made it. Looking back upon the last four years, we admit that it’s been fun and an experience not to be missed foA the world. Despite the grumbling and the harsh words hurled against the teachers, high school has been quite a frolic. Only the teachers have really had to suffer. The male situation this year isn’t quite so promising. Uncle Sam seems to have the “cream of the crop”. Oh well, the football season, was fun anyhow. That frequently versed statement, “What a man!” is at present uttered in slight variation. Now it’s “What, a man?” Nevertheless, we are proud of our fellow comrades in the service of our country. They are fighting for just such things as our high schools and the pleasures we derive from them, as well as for the education we receive, and the right we have to establish ourselves as upright American citizens. An extra long Christmas holiday gives us that well-earned and needed rest. Then back to school we go, and “graduation agitation” is in full swing. Politics are once more at hand. This year successful campaigns result in Bill Grimsley as President; Jean Anderson as Vice- President; and Anne Page Violette as Secretary-Treasurer. Time is flying by and we reach out to grasp fervently what little time is left at good ol’ ff H. S. We have achieved the goal we have worked for only to relinquish it too sooiij We hardly have time to enjoy the full benefit of being ' mighty Seniors. Some of us make preparation for our leave-taking sorrowfully, others are looking forward to the long vacation (?) ahead. After all, eleven years of school is a long time. Yet always in a special niche of our hearts will be a very special feeling for our alma mater, Hampton High School.

Conway Adams, Class Prophet Page Twenty-nine Class Poem When we first came to Hampton, We had many a doubt. Just being little Freshmen, Wondering what it was all about. Our Sophomore year was suddenly reached, We began to feel more at ease, We didn’t mind obeying the ndes, Aiming high, our teachers to please. Three steps forward, nearer our goal. Proud were we when our Junior year came. Our hopes and our dreams soon to come true. Our names perhaps, in the Halls of Fame. At last, we are Seniors, oui heads held high, Marching as one, down the aisle, side by side, We receive our diplomas, our coveted award, May good fortune and happiness follow in our stride. Now we are Graduates, our hearts filled with joy. Onward we shall go, our ambitions to attain. Happy to face, a new world that will be free, Farewell, dear Hampton, and all our friends who remain. —Carol Buxbaum, Class Poet ’44.

Members of the Audiographic Staff are selected from the Industrial Electricity course. The Audiographic Staff is scheduled to meet each week for discussion of some of the types of equipment used. Discussion at the weekly forum is designed to qualify the staff ' s members to set up, operate, and care for the school’s light projecting and sou nd amplifying equipment in a way that will assure its most satisfactory operation. During this year, members of the Audiographic Staff have provided services which have made possible the use of sound motion pictures for many outside groups, including the Health Department, Office of Civilian Defense, Parents-Teachers Associations, Boy Scouts, and church groups. This has been done in addition to providing all of the necessary services for Hampton High School and for certain other units in the school system which are not equipped to project motion pictures. Sound amplifying equipment has also been provided for all necessary school activities and the Audiographic Staff, during its life-time, has been responsible for the design, in- stallation, operation and maintenance of the sound system used in Darling Memorial Park in connection with school athletics and other activities.

Hampton’s first score came as the result of a blocked punt by Cage, who fell on the ball in the end zone. The second score was made on a long pass from Maston to Rollins. The services of Robinson, guard, were lost for the rest of the season due to a fractured elbow received in the last quarter. HAMPTON 0 MAURY 19 After playing an offensive first half, the Crabbers lost a 19-0 decision to the Commodores of Maury. Billy Ranier was the star of the game for the winners, whild Marshall was con- sidered the best for the losers. HAMPTON 6 APPRENTICE 13 In a night game the Crabbers were defeated for the second time to a much, heavier and more experienced eleven from the Apprentice school, 13-6. Robinson did all the scor- ing for the little A’s, while Marshall scored the lone Crabber touchdown in the first quarter. HAMPTON 6 THOMAS JEFFERSON 26 The State Champions of the ’43 season trounced the boys from Hampton, 26-6, in the Capital City. Although being outclassed in the first half, the Easonmen came back to play an even game in the second stanza. HAMPTON 18 HOPEWELL 20 The Blue Devils triumphed over the Red and White, 20-18, although they were out- played by the Crabbers eleven. Both teams crossed the goal three times, but the Blue Devils made their extra points good. Rollins, Knight and Marshall scored the touchdowns for the Crabbers without a single extra point. HAMPTON 0 GRANBY 12 After the opening whistle at Forman Field, the Blue Comets started a 55 yard drive for the first 6 points of the game. Later on in the same half, Lucas took the ball through the center for another 6 pointer to make the final score of 12-0. Shaner Carneal played a beautiful defensive game for Hampton. HAMPTON 26 WILSON 13 The Crabbers broke their losing streak by downing a much favored Wilson eleven, 26-13. Speedster, Billy Knight, scoring with two touchdowns, led the Crabbers. Maston and Marshall tallied once each. Dewey Maston made two of the extra points by going through the center of the line. HAMPTON 26 SOUTH NORFOLK 0 The Crabbers again came through with a victory by overpowering a Class B School from Norfolk 26-0. Little Jimmy Wallace, a substitute, scored twice and Knight and Rollins each scored a six pointer. All reserves saw action and showed plenty of spirit. HAMPTON 34 CRADDOCK 12 Craddock, a runner-up for the Class B championship was defeated by the Hampton eleven, 34-12. Knight, Marshall, Maston, Rollins and Hardy scored touchdowns for the Hamptonians. Ernest Garrison, Captain of the Red and White, played an outstanding defensive game. Austin, an end, played good ball for the Admirals. Page Fifty-one Basketball Captain Manager ..

Although they were inexperienced, the team made some upsets throughout the season.
