We called our annual this year the Kaleidoscope, the same name it has had for a number of years. Every year the staff members have put forth their best efforts in an at¬ tempt to improve the Kaleidoscope over the previous one. So far they have succeeded. Because of improved conditions under which to work and better facilities on hand, we feel justified in saying that the annual of 1937 does exceed the others in every respect. The Literary department that was begun last year has been continued and we hope it will progress rapidly in the future. More group pictures of organizations and home rooms were added this year because we felt that they would make the book more interesting. We express our appreciation to Mr. Sutherland, our sponsor, who has devoted his time and helped us greatly in making this book a success. —The Editor. in iiiiiitiiiiniiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiifi • • • • We started as Freshmen on the bottom rung of the well-known ladder of success. For four years we have put forward the best that was in us in our attempt to reach the top rung. Our teachers have always been willing to put out a guiding hand and help us over the rough places. With¬ out their willingness to help, the going would have been much more difficult. As the time for graduation draws near, we realize that we have ac¬ complished the purpose that was our aim four years ago—the desire to succeed. We know too that one milestone in our education has been pass¬ ed, but the harder and more trying ones are yet before us. Are we afraid of the future? No. The following quotation seems most appropriate at this time and expresses our real feelings: “Grow old along with me, The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made.” This vast future that is so talked of and holds so much terror for most people is just another milestone that has to be reached by the graduating class of 1937. Although we regret leaving friends and beloved surroundings, we look forward to the future and what it holds for each of us, knowing that many things that have become dear will have to be left along the way. —Josephine Ameen.

We had been admitted to Hopewell High under the title of “Freshmen” and we’re proud of it even if we were regarded as “rats” by the upper classmen. Miss Wenger, our home-room teacher, was very kind and understanding and helped us in any way that she could. Most of our home-room periods were taken up reading the “314 Times,” a small weekly paper gotten out by our class. We all worked hard that year, eager to pass and become Sophomores. The fact that this was the year exemptio ns from examinations were first attempted, helped us considerably and made us work all the harder with the hope that they would be con¬ tinued the next year. We had good athletic teams that year and our debating team received honors at the district meeting in Richmond. Sophomores .... We were now known as Sophomores and felt quite sophisticated as we, in turn, could look down upon the Freshmen with contempt. We had progressed one step nearer our goal—graduation. Our home-room teachers were Miss Lucy Sinclair and Miss Gilbert, for whose helpful guidance we are grateful. Luckily for us, exemptions were continued, and this relieved us of a great deal of worry. We were fortunate in having one of the members of our class selected for the debating team which again won honors at the district meeting in Richmond and was sent to Charlottesville to contest for the State championship. Our class was also very well represented in both the Sidney Lanier and Edgar Allan Poe Literary Societies. During our Sophomore year, many improvements were begun on the Athletic Field which helped its appearance considerably. SYLVIA WESTON. Juniors .... Proudly we entered the third year of our high school course, no longer “rats” or lowly sophomores, but juniors, really juniors. Under the guidance of our teachers, Miss Gilbert and Miss Moffet, Ave passed a very successful year climaxed by the Junior-Senior banquet. During this year the first Junior-Senior Prom Avas given for the benefit of the “Kaleidoscope” and was very successful. As the term comes to an end, we look forward with great expectations to our senior year. Seniors .... At last Ave have attained Ihe goal Ave have been working for three long years, the title of “Dignified Seniors.” Hoav proud Ave are to be looked upon as the leaders of the school. ' - With the assistance of Mr. Sutherland our “Kaleidoscope” this year Avill be the best ever published. Several neAv and interesting features have been added and Ave hope they will be included in all future annuals. The Dramatic Club presented its first play this year; many students of the senior class are engaged in this activity. The second annual Junior-Senior Prom was given again this year, the proceeds going to the Junior Class for the Junior-Senior banquet. We are very proud to be the first- class graduating from Hopewell High School since it has been made a class A school. As Ave glance back over the four years of our high school career and see all the happy and trying times Ave have had together, it is with deepest regret that Ave leave Hopewell High School. ELIZABETH HENRY. Page 23 ... . Kaleidoscope H AVE you ever been to a fortune teller? To the mind reading horse? To a Crystal gazer? Some say there are no such things—fortune teller-fake. About the mind reading horse—I’ve never seen one; and the Crystals—I’ve seen lovely ones in chandeliers and I’ve gazed at them, but never the future did I see, but I’ve an imagination and in the midst of one of my day dreams I beheld a magnificent spectacle. I let the book fall to my lap and before me came the vision that I had so often thought of. It amazed me! Was it real? No, it must have been my sub¬ conscious mind going to work. The piano was playing a march—85 fellow classmates, solemn faces, shaking knees, happy hearts, young men and women marching to get their diplomas, but that vision faded, they were leaving, embracing their parents and loved ones. They were appreciative of all that had been done for them, but now they had to do for themselves. What would they do? Do you believe in visions? I had them that evening. A big school was before me, a large library well kept. The person who watched over these books and kept those students in check must have four eyes and six hands, about the latter I was wrong, for there I beheld librarian Myra Birchett—wearing glasses. As I wandered out of the room and down the hall I saw many old friends. Josephine Ameen teaching Psychology,— this new curriculum is amazing. Downstairs, Elton Lee in the chemistry laboratory, he looks like a good chemistry professor. I wonder if he still measures grams of sodium bicarbonate by the inches it takes up in a test tube. I slipped through the furnace room going to the Industrial Arts department and guess who was tending the furnace, (he didn’t graduate with us, but it’s only fair to mention him as I am mentioning all the oth¬ ers I see) J. Washington Percy Jackson, our janitor’s nephew. The In¬ dustrial Arts department was supervised by Carl Bogese and Rives Neb- lett. I wandered back up the steps, no more familiar faces, I walked out slowly, thoughtfully, so glad that some of my classmates were well sit¬ uated and happy. I walked down the street; everything was strange. I passed a lovely cottage with a neat fence around it. I stopped to admire its simplicity in this ever modernizing world when, to my amazement, one of my class¬ mates walked out of the door, washing in hand, I gapped could she be a wash-woman? Much to my delight I found out that it was the maid’s day off so Irene Dowdy had to do her own washing. She invited me in, said she was expecting some of her friends over that afternoon. I was delight¬ ed, old faces, old thoughts bring much new happiness. At four they came: Eva Davis, smartly clad woman, said she didn’t work, kept house for the family. Lois Lester, sweet as ever, worried because of the typing error she had made when the office boy smiled at her. Lillian Sodat, Mary Cibula, and Helen Alford came in, all registered nurses. I was curious Kaleidoscope . . . . Page 24 —how had they done it all?—gumption, I suppose, they had it. I excused myself early; I just had to go. It was late so I took a taxi to town and guess who was driving? Floyd Gage; I asked him why, and he answered, “I’m still working my way through finishing school.” He let me off at the bank. I walked in to see if perhaps—yes, I was right: Accountant Flavious Brittle was busy over his books, while the bank president, Marshall Phillips, daily told Roland Gill that it was unwise to mortgage his town house to buy that farm in the country. I walked out slowly without even speaking, they were busy. Outside were posters and signs, the town election was to be held later in the summer. I inquired of the old man on the corner concerning town politics and he answered, “Women—bah! That Churchill woman will never beat Ruxton.” Could this be Peggy and Donald? It was I found soon after on seeing many more signs, “Vote for Peggy Churchill for Mayor, motto: ‘If the woman dominates in the house, why can’t she dominate just as well in the Town Hall’?” While on the other side was Donald’s motto: “My opinion is—”. I can’t remember that platform. I noticed the “Kurl- yoair” Beauty Parlor not far off. I went in and who should greet me but Dorothy Ackermann. She told me she was manager and that her able assistant, Myna Gaither, would wave my hair or, if I wanted a manicure, Frances Boaze was especially good. I told her I would take both (I needed them; time hasn’t done anything but age me). Before I left, Elizabeth Henry walked in. She told me she was married—had taught school for one year but found more pleasure in housekeeping. I asked about the old bunch. All she knew of was Dorothy Cobb, who was the proprietor of a dress shop—at present in Paris shopping and sightseeing,—said she heard Harold Hobson was teaching Trigonometry out west in one of the schools. I thanked her for the news and as I left she called back and said, “Oh, I forgot Julian (Budd y) Ruffin is Admiral of the battleship “Portocall” in San Diego. Goodness, “Tempus Fugit.” It was late, I must find a hotel if I want¬ ed to spend the night in this town; as I walked into the town’s largest hotel, who should come to greet me, but Hartwell Hildebrand. I exclaim¬ ed, “What are you doing here”? He explained that he and Charles Jenkins had bought the place and were trying to make a go of it by featuring nightly dances and floor-shows. I was delighted, in for a treat, especially when he told me that Amy Altman was the hostess, featuring Claiborne Burnett’s orchestra with Alberta Krausse and her rhythm girls as the main attraction. I met Blair Woody, girl about town, there that night, she gave me some valuable information, told me Virgie Bussart, Sarah Shelton, and Betty Smith were working in one of the town’s law offices— stenographers. She also told me that Louise Talbot was Robert Blount’s private secretary and was traveling around the country taking notes for his next book entitled, “If An Earthworm Wants to Squirm, You Can’t Stop It,” or “Come Out With the Rain,” his publisher, Edwin Collins, likes • • • Page 25 ... . the latter. It is thought that Dan Birchett is furnishing money to back the book, because of his interest in farming. “Plants his potatoes accord¬ ing to science,” said the old-fashioned farmer, Allen Leadbetter, who had just joined our table. He and the Mrs. are raising tobacco and not ac¬ cording to science, says he, “by cracky.” Before I left Helen Hood, Eliza¬ beth Cleere, Jane Storey, Henry Cromartie, Joseph Hedgepeth, and Mark Landa joined us. They showered me with news. I could hardly take it in, “What do you think of Shirley winning the Pulitzer Prize for her latest novel?” I assured them I thought it was grand, our Shirley Goldsmith making such a name for herself, but what about those whom I hadn t seen for so long? Helen and Elizabeth owned a tea room, very successful. Jane Storey told me she just hung around, but I soon found out she was a doctor’s assistant, the doctor being Dr. Sylvia Weston. I asked for news in the medicinal world. She in turn asked me if I had seen the article that Helen Janosik had written in the “Health Journal”; she was making quite a name for herself writing and lecturing on child care. Myrtle George was supervisor in the town hospital. Mary Virginia Jerrell was dietitian at the hospital. I asked about Edna Mae Padgett; after working as a clerk in a downtown store for a year, she married her boss; she’s still working, I was told. Henry, Joseph, and Mark were business men and shieks about town. Henry had his clothing store, while Joseph and Mark were partners in the hardware business. After retiring that night I could not sleep, my mind was so confused. I would go out the next day and try to find some more old friends. The next morning I meandered all over town. Those whom I had not seen and could not see I inquired about. They are all well and happy. George Djiovanidis was stooge for Eddie Cantor on his radio program. Reuben Fleshood and Melvin Sheets had good jobs in the plants, the for¬ mer being a foreman; Melvin was a chemist. Rosalyn Cox, Mary Joan Quicke, and Edith Bridges were north coun- selloring in some of the summer camps. I think they teach in the win¬ ter, music, school and elocution, respectively. Margaret Mariniak and Retha Phillips were stewardesses on one of the T. V. A. planes. William Perkinson was piloting his own plane over Washington for sightseers. Dorothy Cooper and Glady Hughes were nurses. Mary Jane Powers was switchboard operator at the hospital. Virginia Sadler and Douglas Tuggle conducted their own private kindergarten. Argyle Crump had her own radio program, that popular “Ditty and i , Dotty” series for children sponsored by the Rickman (Joe) Brewery. V Donna Mae Sanders was teaching Latin at Hopewell’ High School . 1 ° 1 Kaleidoscope . . . . Page 26 Morris Caldwell was a big league baseball player—second baseman, I believe. Robert Baker was printing the town newspaper. Etta Hanchey was his secretary. Louise Gsell was working in Washington—Senator Milton Burton’s secretary. Eugene Pruett was chief engineer on the Trans- Channel bridge being constructed between France and England. Marie Houghton and Annie Lee were coaching in a consolidated high school in northern Virginia. Evelyn Hazlett was married but I was unable to find out her where¬ abouts. Alma Sharpe and Fannie Jolly, founders and directors of the Sharpe and Jolly school for girls. Valley Challender was working in a tea room, but not for long—she was engaged. Janis Akers had her portrait studio in Greenwich village in New York City. I felt dizzy, my mind was whirling; as I awoke I remember one last vision—Clifton Faris saying, “Right this way folks, right this way—” a barker in a side-show of the Hartle and Platt Carnival. “The most stu¬ pendous, the most colossal, the most gigantic circus in the country owned by women.” Oh, it was a wonderful dream. I think I believe in dreams. If pros¬ perity is around the corner, I’m confident that that is the corner the grad¬ uating class of ’37 is going around. RAE GOODMAN.

DON AH OE ALL6N UAOBfcTTE - 60ITH RRlOOE Kaleidoscope Page 28 FOREWORD T HE Literary Department of the Hopewell High School Kaleidoscope is entering into its second year of successful work. This department was added as an essential part of the Kaleidoscope in 1936, wholly for the sake of the literary art of the pupils of this school. This gives them a chance to try their ability to write in the many literary fields, to help de¬ velop their ability, to build a higher interest of this work in the school, and to enter into competition for the honor to have their work published in the annual. The selections found here in the literary section are purely the original works of the pupils of the em tire school. The contributions this year were amaz¬ ingly large, and it was truly a tedious task to pick the best of these to be published in the Kaleidoscope. May we wish continued and unhampered success to this department in the future, and may the con¬ tribution in this field be as large or larger than we had this year.

In Germany we’ll see the troops Of Hitler in his reign, And hear the peasants as they sing “Aeh de Leber Augestine.” I’ve read of all these places And had the urge to roam, But if I had to make my choice, I’d take America as my home. HE CAME BACK Frances Boaze ’Twas in the days of war that he went, I wept and moaned, I knew what it meant. Up there in front, one day he might fall With a wound in his heart to end it all. Time went on, but he didn’t return. Was all hope gone? Would I ever learn? I Avas happy, just to have him near, But now my heart, it aches with fear. I rejoiced that day when a letter came Saying he would be home with me again. He came home, but different than I thought, Everyone said, a brave fight he had fought. I’m happy now, it does seem a little bit odd, But I’ve rented a cottage near the old church yard. 1 e Page 30 LITERARY DEPARTMENT—Continued CHEMISTRY Buford Collins To have to study Chemistry in school is tough, Because listening to Mr. Cashell Donahoe is enough. Sodat and Caldwell are the stars of the class, And for three or four semesters they are sure to last. My definition of Chemistry is “hunk,” For all but Buddy Garfinkel are apt to flunk. When a six weeks’ test you have to take, A passing grade you cannot make. And on the desk the teacher taps, To wake Theo Gilliam from his naps. When a question Bill Vaughan has to do, For the answer lie’s sure to ask you. When to class you slowly walk, Mr. Donahoe of his school days is bound to talk. On laboratory day when our experiment is done, We all sneak around and have some fun. Some glass we take and bubbles we blow, But if caught by the teacher, it’s an “F,” we know. When on a problem you are stuck, There is nothing to do, but your thumb to suck. So take my advice and skip this stuff, For, students, I know, I’ve had enough. .About this subject you have heard my say, And when asked if you are going to take if, say, “Nay.” A TRIOLET TO PROFESSIONAL WRESTLERS Joel Garfinkel They groan and grunt And they sock and biff, But it’s just a stunt. They groan and grunt But it’s just a front For the crowds will come if They groan and grunt And sock and biff. A HEAD OF CABBAGE Edith Bridges Some people write about birds and bees, And others write about flowers and trees, But I will be different from the average, And write about a head of cabbage. A head of cabbage, so round and green, Is as pretty a vegetable as you’ve ever seen. And although it contains vitamins A, B, and C I hate to admit that it’s disliked by me. • • . Kaleidoscope Page 31 ... . LITERARY DEPARTMENT—Continued ZViCW MIDNIGHT ON THE DESERT” — J. B. Priestly. Mildred Morris Priestly’s meditation of the “strange new-old country and the won¬ derful things that had been bestowed upon it,” caused him to write “Mid¬ night on the Desert.” “Midnight on the Desert” was taken from a chapter in an autobiog¬ raphy covering the winter of 1935-6 which Priestly and his family spent in the Western United States. In this book he pictures for you how illimitable spaces of the Arizona Desert, with all of the distant howls of the coyotes, can break the silence of a man’s ideas in a world surrounded with troubles. The first setting is night, a night when one thinks of the past and links it with the present, a night when one’s soul becomes weary of trav¬ eling and longs for distant shores of the native land. Then the picture rises on far away London, revealing its ever-present fog and rain-beaten streets. Priestly then compares the two countries in various ways; he shows how they differ in acclaiming literature, art, and uses of their natural resources. At the close of “Midnight on the Desert,” Priestly expresses his belief in heaven and hell, in the future of the hu¬ man race. “A MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION” — Lloyd C. Douglas. Gilliam Fenner “A Magnificent Obsession,” Lloyd C. Douglas’ popular novel, is the story of a wealthy playboy, who by an accident, became a wonderful sur¬ geon. The theme of this story is interesting, but its relation to everyday life is far from real. • • • . . . . Page 32 LITERARY DEPARTMENT—Continued (L-AAcryA Man Compared to a Flame Anne Werbenec M AN and fire have an origin as all things have. Environment in childhood begins one’s career; it predicts the position a person will obtain in society. The surrounding conditions of a fire will reveal whether or not the fire may spread and become brilliant. Our daily existence is made sunnier when we expand our friendship and enlarge our acquaintances. The spark of a fire also extends its flames and throws its cheerful rays of light in obscure places. One should keep after the object desired if it is reasonable and will be a credit to one’s life. Man should make use of his assets in order to accomplish his ambition and to be distinguished. The spark of life dies when the inevitable time comes. Fire consumes everything within its reach but, when there is nothing left for it to devour, it cannot live. Therefore, the fire dies and leaves, as does man, nothing but ashes and dust. Essay on Literature Ina Faw T EAT the better things in life are around us everywhere is perfectly true, but they are visible only to the eyes of those who would see them. The outstanding example of this is literature. Never is an intellectual person more impressed than when seeing life through the eyes of such men as Shakespeare, Milton, or Shelly. There are still people who believe the works of a genius were written to be enjoyed, not analyzed. I sometimes think of them as lures to create the want to understand, and once understood, a goal toward which to strive for deeper meaning. Lit¬ erature is not for one class of people; it is needed by every man, and its lack causes famine of the mind. I am afraid that men have not stopped to think that in this machine age they are becoming victims. Each feels so small a debt to progress that one repeated task can fill his space. Their thought has become au¬ tomatic. They feel the desire, but not the necessity for better things to occupy their minds. The answer to this is the reading of choice literature; in the same way personality is developed, character strengthened, and crime discouraged. There is a battle for the finer things, and the beneficiaries are, “all who’ll be enlisted as volunteers.” Kaleidoscop Page 33 ... . LITERARY DEPARTMENT—Continued The Driving Permit Rae Goodman IPOUR months and two more days, just think—” he was cut short |j there. Unfortunately, his birthday didn’t come until April; more unfortunate, was the fact that he couldn’t get a driver’s permit until then. He was a little brother and—a little pest. Greatly spoiled by his parents, equally spoiled by me, his older sister. When twelve years of age he wanted to drive an automobile and so he was taught. Well, I’ll make my story short. He couldn’t get a driving permit until fourteen, he was twelve—years and days pass by slowly and especially when one is reminded of them at frequent intervals. Quite naturally he has gotten on my nerves many times; I’ve scolded and threatened. I even took him to the movies once on a promise that he would taunt me no more —I hoped, but I knew it just couldn’t work. Well, it’s only a short while off and I repeat, he’s my little brother, so now I’m counting the days for him—apple sauce—I’m counting them for myself; in three more days I’ll be free, but then I suppose he’ll be looking forward to his sixteenth birthday—daddy promised him he could smoke then. The Value of the Study of English Literature Shirley Goldsmith T HE study of English literature is of great value to the student. In¬ telligent study of our literature gives us a knowledge of our ances¬ tors—their lives, customs, occupations, joys, and sorrows—never before justly appreciated. To develop an appreciation of the finest things and ease our craving for beauty, it is also necessary to know English lit¬ erature. An intelligent course of study enables us to pick from the large store of our immortal writings those subjects and authors that particularly appeal to us. The study of English literature gives to us an appreciation of the great geniuses that God has given to our race. Such names as Shakes¬ peare, Wordsworth, Kipling, Caedmon, and Alfred the Great—immortal because they could put into beautiful, expressive language their thoughts and feelings—show us the best side of man. Because the study of Eng¬ lish literature gives us a better knowledge of our ancestors, eases our spiritual longing for beauty and goodness, and helps us to choose from the vast amount of English literature that which particularly appeals to us, it is valuable. Kaleidoscopi . . . . Page 34 LITERARY DEPARTMENT—Continued And the Strongest Survive Harold Hobson I N a low white building lay the remains of a detail, under Sergeant Leon Knotsky, which had met with disaster at outpost five. During the night the natives had made a surprise attack and without the usual torture had emptied all the water cans except the sergeant’s and taken all the bullets except those in the sergeant’s service revolver. The Arabs, a crafty lot, thought it better for the men of the legion to kill themselves than for them to waste ammunition. That is what happened, the sergeant guarded his water like a lioness her cubs. When the corporal made a rush, his tongue swollen terribly, his eyes streaming blood that had hardened on his face, he was turned back with a slug between the eyes. One by one they spilled blood on hot sand, the remaining men looking at the liquid seeping in the earth furnishing more ink with which the grim reaper might keep tally. As the shadows grew from nothing, three men were left—an Italian, the sergeant, and the young Pole—that is now on- the hospital cot in the next room. The Italian, suffering terribly, took his turn in the mad rush preferring the real Hell to the imitation he was facing now. He walked slowly, menacingly, toward the can from which the sergeant had just taken a deep draught. The crack of the pistol traveled over the sand to a dune and back again as if to remind him if he missed the next shot he would be on his way. The young Pole didn’t try the rush. He lay there helpless, hopeful. “Funny,” thought Knotsky, “he looks like the son I left in Russia.” The shadows were lengthening considerably when the French aviator gathered all the life he could find and rushed it to the base hospital. “Do you mean that lad in there, sir?” asked an interne. “Yes,” said the surgeon abruptly. “But I don’t understand sir,” said the second interne. “Where’s the sergeant?” “Dead,” said the surgeon with the expression of a man who had seen death every day for three years. “The sergeant dead, sir?” said the easily excited second interne, “but what killed him?” “Thirst and character,” replied the surgeon with his voice becoming soft despite his efforts to keep it from doing so. “Thirst, sir?” “Yes, the aviator found a half-empty canteen around the Pole’s neck with the initials L. K. on its side.” • • Kaleidoscop Page 35 ... .

Parsons faced the task of building almost a new team with the first game only three weeks away. Those boys who re¬ turned were: Pritchard, Livingston, N. Coleman, J. Phelps, Johnson and Pruett. Those lost were: Adams, W. Foster, Sacra, A. J. Foster, Rouse, Thompson, Titmus, Poitevint and Skallberg. The new athletic field was dedicated at the first game by Mayor Elder. Hopewell easily drubbed Chester and the following Friday equally as easily won over Hampden-Sydney Frosh. Newport News won the next game at Newport News. Handicapped by mud and rain, Hopewell lost to Fredericksburg there. Fredricksburg had the breaks, recovering two blocked kicks over the goal line. Hopewell took the longest trip of the season journeying to Princeton, W. Va., to play the next game. The game was delayed on account of rain and the team stayed there for four days. Playing under lights on a muddy field Hopewell was no match for the mountaineers. Hampton won the next game, which was one of the hardest fought of the year. Our team did not have the strength to push over another touchdown, but we have the honor of being the best team that Hampton played last fall. Hampton later went on to win the Class A high school championship. Hopewell traveled to Suffolk for the next game and won against stiff opposition 13-7. Alexandria downed Hopewell 19-0 there and after the game they journeyed to Washington to spend the night. Hopewell easily crushed South Hill in preparation for the biggest game of the year—Petersburg. Before a crowd of three thousand on our own field, Hopewell fought desperately, having an edge most of the game, ex¬ cept for a few bad breaks. Once we had the ball on the one-yard line and fumbled on the first down with Petersburg recovering. Petersburg finally won 13-7. This was a hard one to lose and we should have won. We broke even, winning five and losing five for the season. It was the best offensive team since 1931. Bogese, Pruett and Collins will not be back next year, but prospects for another good team are fine. • • • Page 61 ... .

They were Lead- better and Pritchard, forwards, and J. Phelps and E. Phelps, guards. Adams, center, and Poitevint, forward, were two lettermen lost from the 1936 team. The reserves and letter- men enabled Coach Parson to put out the best team in the history of Hopewell High School, winning nine games and losing ten with the hardest schedule ever undertaken. The Blue Devils defeated Petersburg twice this season, a feat never accomplished before. King, Pritchard, J. Phelps, E. Phelps, Manieri and Clark played outstanding ball for Hopewell as well as the reserves: Phillips, Altman, and Livingston. Coach Parson will lose only two men, Phillips and Leadbetter from this year’s team and prospects are bright for another good season in 1938. J. Phelps was high scorer with 156 points and “Bosh” Pritchard runner-up with 148 points. Kaleidoscope . . . .

One game each was lost to Fredericksburg, Petersburg, and Suffolk. The tie game was with our arch rivals, Petersburg. The season opened with seven letter girls and six reserves from last year’s squad out for practice. Miss Wheeler developed a record team from this material. Three girls earned letters and seven girls earned stars this year. Next year’s team will be hindered by the loss of five letter girls. The squad is sorry to learn that Miss Wheeler will not be coaching next year. They wish to express their appreciation for her splendid coaching during the past two years. Page 63 ... .

Along with the lettermen and the reserves, Coach Parson has been able to turn out a good team winning six of the seven games played so far. Two of the games have been rained out and two with Suffolk are pending. Among the high lights of the season so far is our 5-0 win over John Marshall and two one-hit pitching per¬ formances. Kennan gave William and Mary only one hit and Pritchard yielded one hit to Virginia Frosh. Caldwell, Leadbetter and Hedgepeth will be lost from the squad next year.

They were Parr, Livingston, Pritchard, Altman, J. Phelps, Phillips and Bogese. Along with these lettermen and the new men, Coach Thompson has been able to turn out a winning com¬ bination that will represent Hopewell High. Hopewell won fourth place in the Central Class A meet while John Marshall won first place. Some of the outstanding features of this meet were M. Phillips winning the mile and Altman’s performance in the broad jump, javelin, and low hurdles winning first, second, and third places respectively. Altman was high scorer for Hopewell, securing ten points. TJopewell won first place in the relay and was honored with a large trophy. Hopewell took first place in the triangular meet while Fredricksburg won second and Suffolk third. Parr has not been able to compete in any events so far bcause of a bad leg and Junior Phelps was unable to participate in the triangular meet due to a sprained back. Bogese and M. Phillips are the only lettermen who will not be back next year. Hartwell Hildebrand is manager of the team and Warren Wicker is assistant manager. Page 65 . . .

Handicapped by lack of veterans, he has been able to develop a team of green material that is improving fast. The letterman back is Collins and the. new men are King, Neblett, Saunders, Short and Djiovanidis. Hopwell, handicapped by not having her own courts, plays at the Armory which is quite a distance from the school. The team as yet has not broken into the winning column, but hopes to soon. Tennis is only a minor sport but is fast developing in Hopewell high school. It calls for fair play, the players having to judge, themselves. Collins, Neblett and Djiovanidis are the lettermen who will not be back next year. Billy Harding is manager of the team. Kaleidoscope . . . . . .
