Smith 4K} HE STAFF of 1933-34 began their literary work on the news staff of the “School News” of Hopewell High School published in the “Hopewell News,” preferable to an inter-school sheet of our own. This work proved very beneficial to all concerned and the members retained their former positions on the “Kaleidoscope” staff of 1934, with the addition and expan¬ sion of business management and typing departments. The staff members wish to express their sincere gratitude to Mr. Smith, to whom we dedicate our annual, for the aid he had given us through friendly counsel and advice while faculty adviser of the news staff and sponsor of the “Kaleidoscope.” To those students who follow us we desire to pass on the good wishes of our predecessors. May they derive the clean, genuine joy of cooperation, friendship and accomplishment that we have experienced throughout the year and these closing days of our high school career. ¥ Page four VIRGINIA PEEPLES CO-EDITOR ELEANOR WOODY BUSINESS MANAGER DONALD WHITLOCK CO-EOITOR CONSTANCE BRACKENS CO-EDITOR J BILLY GREEN ASST.BUSINESS M6R HA2EL LEEDY ASST.

But with the coming of a more complex and speedier civilization, the school had to en¬ large its curriculum in order to satisfy the multifarious needs of modern youth. Not only was the curriculum as such en¬ larged, but also there was included a phase of school work known as extra-curricula activities. These activities include such things as baseball, foot¬ ball and all forms of athletics; Literary societies, Dramatic clubs, Forensic clubs, and the many other interests. The football teams train, practice and play games, which we all enjoy seeing; and all the other organizations furnish en¬ tertainment and amusement to those who are interested in them. Yet, the football games are soon over; the glory of winning a debate or public speaking contest soon becomes but a memory. Then, too, many pupils are not able physical¬ ly to make the athletic teams, nor can many of our students make the debating teams. And that is just the reason why the school annual is included in the list of extra-curricula work. The year book presents the opportunity for pupils of this type who are interested in journalism to engage in work that is congenial. The school annual is a chronicle, a recorder of all classes, all organizations and interests. It embraces all the other activities and brings them together so that you may enjoy the event long after it has actually happened. It is a book that in years to come will take its place along with the family album, as a reminder of the good times you had and the pleasant people you knew during your days in high school. Page eight (Class BfiBtnrg Freshman ITH FRESH minds and a feeling of supremacy, we left our Junior High School teachers and classmates to en¬ ter into the first year of high school life, the goal which we had been striving to attain. We found confronting us the problem of preventing the Seniors from ac¬ quiring the privilege of initiating the “Rats.” Of we were very much opposed to this, but finally, much to our delight and relief, the Seniors gave up the attempt. Several of our girls made the basketball team as substitutes in their Freshman year, and some of our boys made the base¬ ball, football and basketball teams. We also had entries in the Public Reading, Public Speaking and Debating Contests, all of which we were very proud. Of course, the sympathy and guidance of our teachers, Miss Alice Gilbert, Miss Walmsley, and Mr. Cashell Donahoe, were the things that guided us successfully through our first year. All of our activities were centered in them, and we shall not forget them as we emerge from the first trying year, through the ordeal of examinations, becoming .... Sophomores. % fc sk h 5k % Sophomore We entered our Sophomore year with joyful hearts, for we had “outgrown” the title “Freshie” and were now settling down to work to make this a successful year in our long journey. By this time we had fully acclimated ourselves to our sur¬ roundings and had become familiar with the rules and regula¬ tions which governed the school activities. This was done through the aid of our Sophomore teachers, Mr. Cashell Donahoe and Miss Bertha Robertson. A few of the boys and girls who entered the athletic teams the preceding year, won letters for their cooperative services on the teams; some were not quite so successful but hope re¬ mained in their hearts to receive their reward the next year. During the end of this year our thoughts were centered in the Junior-Senior Banquet. With the problem of raising funds Page nine CLASS HISTORY—Continued to feed the Seniors, we ccmpleted the second year of our high school life which was the “dividing line,” showing us that we were half-way to the goal fcr which we were striving to attain. —Sarah Davis. Junior We entered into this stage of high school life with a superior feeling. The biggest feature in a Junior’s career is the Junior- Senior Banquet. We worked hard to raise the funds for this ban¬ quet in order to entertain the Seniors. We gave the “Mock Min¬ strel” which was a big success. We also held a popularity con¬ test. These, with the regular class dues, furnished sufficient funds to give the banquet. Committees were appointed to take charge of this and it was considered a big success. A chorus was organized in our Junior year to sing for com¬ mencement. This chorus proved to be very helpful and it will probably be used in the years to come. The chorus consisted mostly of Juniors. ❖ :j« ❖ ❖ Senior At last we have reached the class to which we have been looking forward .... our last year of high school. The “Kaleidoscope” staff was organized with Mr. Smith as sponsor. We are trying this year to produce a bigger and better annual. In high school we have learned to take advantage of oppor¬ tunities and we have learned the real value of self-government. We are sad to think of leaving the school, but we are also happy to have completed this course. We owe our success to the de¬ term ination of the pupils and of the faculty. The Senior girls, sponsored by Miss Agnes Bell, organized a sorority—the Beta Sigma Chi. The purpose of this club is to aid the Freshman. We gave a party in February to get them better acquainted. High Junior girls were taken into the club so that the club can be carried on the next year. —Ruth Hood. Page ten Page eleven mwwm (ElaBB iJPropljnij RINCESS GOTAMI greets you. I come from the far east where tinkling temple bells murmur in the dusky air, and “the sun comes up like thunder out of China ’cross the bay.” It is fate that has reached out and drawn me across the deep waters to search the stars, to probe the most guarded secrets of the Orient, and tell these Hopewell High School graduates what the future holds for them. Lo! I feel a sensation of lassitude stealing over me. I see a man, bowing and smiling, while multitudes shout, “Vote for William Kanak for reelection to the U. S. Senate.” Now a group of laughing girls come into view. Oh, they are those inseparable friends of Fredericksburg College, the Misses Ann Aderholt, Margery Francis, and Florence Garfinkel, home for the holidays and excited over their latest football hero. Still the future discloses the figure of a solitary man stroll¬ ing through the woods. From time to time he stops and ex¬ amines some object on the ground. It is Dr. Donald Whitlock, head of the Biology department of the University of Richmond, gathering material for a lecture. Here comes a famous couple, Stuart Rivenbark and Ruth Hood, the songbirds of radio station XYZ. Now I see two young women coming out of the New Hope- well Civic Library. It is Miss Anthier Sharpe, head librarian, and Helen Talbot, assistant librarian. Another couple is walking down Fifth Avenue in New York City. As they approach I see it is Miss Lillian Alford and Charles Sacra. Just beyond them a huge electric sign flashes “Alford and Sacra, Designing and Interior Decorating.” I see a beautiful flower garden, and among the blossoms a lovely young girl. It is Miss Hazel English. The reason for her radiant smile is the fact that she has just won the title “Miss America” at the Atlantic City Beauty Pageant. The scene fades away, and I see a lone hunter walking down a path with a contented smile on his face. As he approaches we find that he is Torsten Peterson. Now there is a great mist before my eyes. I see with the greatest difficulty a distant land. At last the scene clears and we find ourselves in Europe, in the offices of an internationally Page twelve CLASS PROPHECY—Continued famous surgeon, Dr. Hazel E. Leedy. She is dictating an article to her private secretary, Miss Ursula Martin, explaining the method of sewing up the human heart. Just then Miss Thelma Krausse, brilliant young actress, enters and demonstrates her famous smile that can break the human heart again. But in a flash we have crossed the ocean and see the bright lights of New York’s great white way. One of the larger signs blazes forth “Eleanor Gray, Back From Conquest of Europe.” Just then that lovely dancer, herself, steps from her limousine and enters the theatre. Still more bright lights, but this time we are at Madison Square Garden. A wrestling bout has just been completed and the new heavyweight champion, Manuel Tso urounis, is waving to the excited fans. Three men, shouting wildly, climb into the ring. They are friends of the champ, Charles Minor, Francis Dereski, and William Benton. The lights fade and I see a private landing field on Long Island. It is a bright sunny day and Pat Davis, the holder of the men’s endurance record, has alighted from a solo flight and is walking across the field with one of the season’s newest debutantes, Miss Eleanor Woody. I see a quiet mission school in the mountains of Virginia. Two sober young ladies, Lucille IJanchey and Jeanette Peeples, are teaching salvation to the needy. Now I see inside the law offices of that brilliant attorney, Sol Goodman. He is surrounded by his hard-working but de¬ voted stenographers, Fannie Whitley, Pauline Vaughn, Ruth Gunn and Manchie Balle. A huge ocean liner is pulling out of New York harbor, and on th e dock I see Marie Ruffin with her husband, a graduate of Annapolis, starting on a honeymoon around the world. New York’s skyscrapers loom before my eyes. In one of the offices I see the new president of the Western Union, Rich¬ ard Powers, dictating a letter to his private secretary, Sarah Davis. I see flags of all nations waving in colorful confusions, huge crowds of people, and bands marching. It is the opening of an¬ other series of Olympic games. Among the entrants from the U. S. I see Josephine Sordelette, Margaret Chiarky, Jack Pascoe and Roy Bishop. Mingling with the crowd is Nettie Bridges, Page thirteen CLASS PROPHECY—Continued news correspondent for the Associated Press, and at her side Lena Tew, who covers the society angle. Now I seem to be in a fashionable studio in some large city. Miss Johnny Helms, brilliant interior decorator is showing some plans to a young bride and groom, Mr. and Mrs. Art Brown. Before her marriage Mrs. Brown was Miss Elsie Alderson of Hopewell, Virginia. In a large auditorium I see Pete Hapstak directing his or¬ chestra with the utmost ease and assurance. Among the musi¬ cians we find Sam Shanko, Marjorie George, Rudolph Heretick, Margaret Guinn and Donald Atwater. In a flash I see Hollywood Boulevard stretched before me. A languorous lady is coming out of an exclusive gown shop when a battery of news cameramen dash up to her. She is Miss Vir¬ ginia Peeples, Samuel Goldwyn’s newest and greatest discovery, whose last picture, “Men I Have Loved,” established her fame as the screen’s most alluring vamp. In a tea room just off the boulevard Miss Maudie Franklin is jotting down notes for her personality column in the Movie Magazine. Now I see two men busily working in an ultra-modern chem¬ ical laboratory. They are Ligon Jones and Homer Lee Krout, famous chemists and inventors of the marvelous new energy and intelligence ray which supplies these valuable assets to those lacking them, and is especially designed for high school students. Their stenographers, Dorothy Alderson and Virginia Davis are taking care of the rush of fan mail. I see inside a luxurious beauty shop. Miss Maria Guile is waving Gertrude Shelton’s hair while Gertrude tells her about the dashing young man who is taking her to dinner that evening. The Capitol at Washington comes before my eyes and I see Verna Via and Velma Gilbert climbing the steps to the U. S. Pat¬ ent Bureau. They wear a smug look on their faces and the reason for this is the fact that they have invented an erasure key for typewriters. A group of men now came walking down the street, talking earnestly together. Albert Jones and Keith Kelly, City En¬ gineers of Hopewell, Virginia, are explaining to Fred Ameen and Royal Smith, enthusiastic young aviators, their plans for improving the city airport. fage fourteen CLASS PROPHECY—Continued In the municipal building nearby I see Miss Annie Hapstak, the new head of the city welfare department, working busily at her desk. « Through the distance I view the beautiful campus of some college. Cecelia Janosik and Elpie Economon, physical educa¬ tion instructors, are taking their classes for a hike. Dr. Palmer Edwards, Professor of Mathematics, is an invited guest on the trip. Bright lights again flash on, and I seem to be in a gay night club. A number of young men, accompanied by charming ladies, are grouped together and seem to be having a party. They are Raymond Caricofe, Bill Merner, Clarence Wells and Theodore Dudley, and they certainly are enjoying themselves. Miss Len- nie Bear has just entertained with a “blues” song while Miss Annaleene Drake did a novelty dance. The lights fade and a great hospital looms before me. Sev¬ eral nurses are just coming off duty. As they approach I see Ruthcille Craven, Elizabeth Sellars, Lucy Harrup and Eliza¬ beth Hoffman. Their eyes seem to be roving in the direction of a handsome young doctor just leaving. IPs wonderful to see girls so interested in their work. The scene fades and the offices of the New York Times springs into view. We see two of our friends there, working happily. Miss Mary Harrison is an energetic girl reporter while Carl Whittington has just been promoted to the position of cir¬ culation manager. Again I see Hopewell in the years to come. At the City Point Club Miss Catherine Belch, swimming instructor, is giving lessons to Miss Marjorie Boettcher, manager of Woolworth’s Five-and-Ten Cent store, who is enjoying an afternoon off. Down at the Hopewell airport Miss Billy Green is embarking on a flight to New York, from which place she will fly to London to spend the summer with a titled English sportswoman. Now I seem to be inside a large automobile factory in De¬ troit. George Lee is designing an automobile that makes the old-fashioned stream-lined cars of 1934 look slow. This model has an automatic steering attachment, and its possibilities are unlimited for moonlight drives. The driver is thus enabled to take two girls out at the same time and slight neither. Amid the confusion and turmoil of a busy broker’s office on Page fifteen CLASS PROPHECY—Continued Wall Street in New York City I see Virginia Phillips and Eliz¬ abeth Dunn calmly and efficiently conducting the business of the day. Now in a quiet little church I see that Ola Lee Wicker and Lucy Josey realized their ambitions and are now beaming brides. I see a contented fisherman reclining beside a stream, his fishing pole dangling in the water and a newspaper spread on the ground before him. He is James Smith, and is looking at the picture of the football squad of one of our leading col¬ leges. In the center of the group we find the beaming face of Paris Leadbetter. An inspiring sight greets my eyes. I see a large class of graduating Seniors upon the stage of Hopewell High School. It is not this class of 1934, however, but one of several years in the future. In the audience I see Miss Martha Jamarik, who is now a successful business woman, applauding a speech in which it has been announced that the graduating class had a combined average of “A” for the four years’ work. This re¬ markable achievement is declared to be due to the excellent teaching methods of the faculty. Miss Jamarik is congratula¬ ting the teachers, but one familiar face seems to be missing. She asks someone where Mr. Smith is and the reply is “in Sweden.” On the wings of the wind my sight flies to Sweden where I see Mr. Charles W. Smith, receiving the Nobel Prize for Litera¬ ture, surrounded by fair admirers as usual. Princess Gotami bids you farewell .... and remember that the crystal never lies. —Constance Brackens.

New officers were elected at the meetings to direct the activities of the society. Page forty Sidney Lanier Literary Society During the 1933-34 school semester of the Sidney Lanier Literary Society the members have been very active. Debating comprised a major part of the club activities dur¬ ing the year and three of the society members, Miss Billy Green, Miss Virginia Peeples, and Mr. Howard Newman were on the debating team. All of these went to Charlottesville to debate for the state championship. Miss Elizabeth Bishop won in the public reading contest and Miss Constance Brackens won in the public speaking contest. Our sponsors, Mr. Leadbetter and Miss Boston have been very efficient. The officers for the year were: President _Billy Green, Bichard Powers Vice-President_Elpie Economon, Torsten Peterson Secretary_Charles Sacra, Margaret Smith Sergeant-at-Arms_Bill Merner, Manuel Tsourounis The Library Mrs. Douglas, Librarian Hopewell High School Library has a collection of over 2,600 bocks. From time to time, new pamphlets and pictures have been added to the vertical files. We subscribe to a large number of current magazines. This year during the work of the C. W. A., our library was enlarged to twice its original size. The book shelves were newly painted and the walls plastered, making the library a more at¬ tractive and more pleasant room for reading. Four years ago when our library was organized, five Fresh¬ men became assistants. This year they are Seniors and have completed the requirements of library assistants. They are: Elsie Alderson Virginia Peeples Eleanor V oody Marie Buff in Buth Hood An extra credit is awarded to each student who assists in the library for four years. Other assistants are: Virgie Bussart Helen Hood Bae Goodman Edith Bridges Blair Woody Jane Storey Buby Stephenson Mildred Alderson Bosemary Howell Louise Wallace Madge Booth Helen Marks Page forty-one f osco 934 Beta Sigma Chi Front Row (left to right):—Margery Franeis, Florence Garfinkel, Dorothy Al- clerson, Miss Agnes Bell (sponsor), Eleanor Gray, Anne Aderholt, Billie Green.

Eleanor Gray, Johnny Helms, Ruth Hood and Mai- garet Guinn are the charter members, the others being voted in by unanimous vote later. The purpose of the club is to be “Big Sisters” to the incoming Freshmen. In February the Freshmen were entertained by the club. Miss Agnes Bell is our sponsor and with her aid we consider ourselves very suc¬ cessful for a new club. Page forty-two Home Economics Club The renovation of the high school building by the C. W. A. gave the Home Economics department an excellent opportunity to demonstrate their ability to do interior decorating. Many units were worked out by the students such as finishing off and waxing floors, painting radiators and pipes and arranging in¬ terior furnishings. Thanks to the C. W. A. our department has been much more interesting and attractive. We hope to enlarge and improve our work next year. The Forensic Club The Forensic Club was organized to increase interest in all literary activities with special interest centered in debating. Our teams have been unusually successful in competition with other schools. In the District meet held at the University of Richmond on April 27 both debating teams were unanimously chosen to enter the state contest at Charlottesville on May 11.

W. PARSON Mr. Leslie Wright Parson, Athletic Director of Hopewell High School, is one of the most athletic, illustrious alumni of which Wil¬ liam and Mary College can boast. In 1927 he left an unusually good athletic record behind him and came to us to inspire the boys, of Hopewell High School to play cleaner, faster and harder athletics. He is a dynamo of human energy, and insists that each boy must hustle to maintain a place on the team. He dislikes a quitter and questionable tactics. In short, he stands for clean athletics and leads his boys toward the standard of being good sports and gentlemen. A. S. THOMPSON Mr. Alpheus Sitman Thompson is also a product of the College of Wil¬ liam and Mary. As assistant to Coach Parson he has proved him¬ self invaluable to the morale and success of Hopewell’s athletic teams. HILDA MANIF.RI TRAINA Hilda Manicri Traina is a graduate of Temple University where she specialized in physical education. She also attended Fredericksburg Stale Teachers College.

Working with the large squad composed of small and inexperienced boys, Coach Parson put a team on the field that held Petersburg’s champions to a closer score than any class B state opposition. ‘The first game of the 1933 season opened with Blackstone on our home grounds. Many combinations were tried by Coach Parson but none seemed to click as well as last year s champion¬ ship team. However, we emerged on the long end of a 6-0 score. The second game of the year called for a trip to Newport News. The “Typhoons” were reported much stronger than in the previous year when they held us to a 6-6 tie. The game ended in a 14-0 victory for the “Shipbuilders.” Both touch¬ downs came as a result of long gain plays. A revengeful Yellow Jacket” team from Fredericksburg made a game stand against a determined Hopewell team. The first quarter found the Hope- well boys leading as a result of a 25 yard end run by Rivenbark for a touchdown and a perfect drop kick by Djiovanidis for the extra point. The third quarter Hopewell increased its score by six points when Jones, on a perfectly executed spinner, went twelve yards for a touchdown. The try for extra point w ent wide. The ' game ended Hopewell 13, Fredericksburg 0. The following Friday Hopewell High was host to a newcomer, Thomas Jefferson High School of Richmond, and Hopewell fans were entertained by one of the most thrilling games ever wit¬ nessed on the high school field. The first quarter found Hope- well leading 6 to 0 as a result of a pass from Glass to Rivenbark. The second quarter found Hopewell trailin g 14 to 12 as a lesult of two completed passes by Thomas Jefferson. Both Jefferson’s extra points were good. Both Hopew T ell’s extra points seemed good but referee Demott ruled them void because the backfield was in motion. In the second half both teams threw passes des¬ perately. Hopewell completing one and Jefferson one to make the score 20 to 18 in Jefferson’s favor at the end of the game. On their second trip into Tidewater Virginia the Blue Devils, thirsty for victory, went out and gave the Crabber fans some¬ what of a scare when they scored on a pass after five minutes of play. But the small Hopewell team could not stand up against Page fifty-four 1934 FOOTBALL—-Continued the heavy boys from Hampton and the game ended 12 to 6 in favor of our opponents. Incidentally, we were the only team to score on Hampton this year on their home grounds. On a twc-day trip the Blue Devils encountered George Wash¬ ington High School of Danville in an Armistice Day feature. The game opened with both teams fighting on equal terms dur¬ ing the f’rst half. The second half found the teams trying des¬ perately to score and Danville uncorked a lateral pass that was good for forty-five yards and a touchdown. Previous to this the Elue Devils had scored on two occasions but both times had been called back by the referee. On the following Friday Coach Parson’s boys were host to a large team from Alexandria that had not been beaten this season. At first it seemed to be a certain victory for the Blue Devils, who, after only two minutes of play marched down to the visitors’ five-yard line only to be held at this point. The visitors then punted out of danger. The rest of the game was played in mid-field, neither team being able to penetrate the other’s defense. This was the first time in our athletic rela¬ tions with Alexandria that the Blue Devils have not been vic¬ torious. As the last game of the season approached the boys worked hard and took instructions with but one thing in mind . . . .beat Petersburg! On Thanksgiving morning before a crowd of 4,000 people Hopewell High completely fooled all pre-game predictions by holding the highly vaunted Crimson Wave team to a two touchdown margin. The Blue Devils gained the distinction of being the only team in the state to score through Petersburg’s fine, and also to block two punts in the last quarter. Starting the second half with a two touchdown disadvantage the Blue Devils completely outplayed the Petersburg team except in the first two minutes of play when “The Crimson Wave” scored their third and last touchdown. Three times we attempted to score through the air and three times the passes were barely short of the receiver. The game ended Petersburg 18, Hopewell 6. Thus ended the 1933 football season. With a record of two victories, one tie, and five defeats, the supporters of Hopewell High will always remember the hard luck but fighting squad that was coached by one of the best high school coaches in the state. Their slogan was “Never Give Up” . . . and they didn’t.

The material available for the squad was very small and Coach Parson deserves much credit for the team’s achievement. Although the schedule was a tough one, the majority of defeats were by a small margin.

There was an exceptionally large number of girls out for the squad this year and some very good material was found among them. The girls stuck together and worked hard in spite of the loss of the star forward, Kate Peterson, due to injuries received in a game. Due to Coach Traina’s coaching, the girls lost only two out of fifteen games, both of them being to Suffolk. The Hopewell girls scored 548 points against their opponents 286. This was the most successful sea¬ son the girls have ever had. Page fifty-nine 1934 Baseball Team L. W. Parson, Coach A. 8. Thompson, Asst.

The best high schools and col¬ lege freshmen teams in the state were met and defeated. The season began with an eight game winning streak which was brok¬ en by Chester in a bitterly fought game, 5-4. Although unaccus¬ tomed to defeat the boys were unimpressed. The following day they defeated Petersburg 1-0 in the greatest game the old-timers in this section can remember. Glass, on the mound for the “Blue Devils,” pitched a no-hit, no-run game, facing only 27 batsmen. In order to win the game, however, he had to combine remark¬ able hitting with perfect pitching. After collecting a triple and two singles he came to bat to start the ninth inning and drove the ball to the right field fence, stopping at third. McKaig rolled a slow one to second base and when the dust settled around home plate Glass had been called safe on a close play and the game was won. Much credit is due Coach Parsons for having taken this green material, only four lettermen returning, and making a winning combination. RESULTS OF SCHEDULE: H. H. S_ 9 H. H. S_17 H. H. S_ 4 II. H.

Unlike most school games graduation does not mark the end of one’s participation in it. There are other reasons why boys should play tennis: it builds up the body, improves the health, teaches one to think quickly and act instantly. The most attractive feature of tennis, how¬ ever, is the fine sportsmanship it demands. In tennis no umpire or referee is needed to call a close play, there are no arguments over doubtful decisions because the player knows that he can trust his opponent to be fair since he is generous himself.
