OUR PRINCE CHARMING! It is with gratitude and pleasure that we dedicate our 1964 annual to our deserving assistant principal, Mr. Jack Powers. The background of v as t experience that he brought with him to Ferguson has been of benefit to all who have come in con- tact with him. After graduating from South Norfolk High, which is now Oscar Smith, Mr. Powers attended the University of Richmond. In 1940 he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in history. After deciding to enter the teaching profession, he be- gan his career at Ashland High. From there he went to Chester, Oscar Smith, and Craddock High. Among the subjects which he taught were history, English, economics, and physical education. In addition to these he found time to coach all four major sports. Before coming to Ferguson as assistant principal in 1961, Mr. Powers taught history at New- port News High and coached our rival school in football, basketball, and baseball. During this time he attended summer school at the College of William and Mary and received his Master ' s Degree in Education. Our assistant principal has always been keenly interested in athletics. In both high school and college he participated in football, basketball, and baseball. Before World War II he played professional football for the Portsmouth Cubs and the Norfolk Shamrocks. Mr. Powers is a loyal Ferguson fan and a fervent supporter of all school activities. He has the admiration of students and faculty alike. In years to come the name of Mr. Jack Powers is certain to be synonymous with a friendly smile, a deep personal concern for the welfare of each Mariner and a sincere devotion to duty. OH, NO! NOT YOU AGAIN! HERE ' S HOW, BOYS! OUR BOOKIE! KEEP TO THE RIGHT, MARINERS!
