Text from Pages 1 - 88 of the 1959 volume:

Thus, from such meager beginnings, come our graduates sweeping down to place themselves in the Endless Sea” called Life. Within these covers we have endeavored to encase for you a flowing rendition of life between the rivers. We hope the scenes depicted here will remind our parents and friends of the careful and persevering work which they have devoted to us during the past four years, and etch firmly in your minds the bed from which we began and developed. With these incentives kept carefully in mind, we proudly present to you the 1959 Warrior.

To successfully meet the challenges of life, and there will be plenty of them, a definitive understanding of the Humanities is essential. Your high school curricula has been designed with this in mind. Those of you who have successfully reached the point of graduation have had a minimum of two courses in this area. Using a broad terminology, this area is perhaps more familiarly known to you as the Social Studies. Some sage has written: self conquest is the greatest of virtues. Many gems of truth have been expressed in a few words. This is truly an example of one of them. The more one ponders the statement, the more potent it becomes. The foundation of our Christian civilization is laid upon both self-denial and self-conquest. A people without an understanding of these principles soon perish. Therein lies the philosophy behind the emphases which are placed on your education for social living. As a parting word to you as the Class of 1959 prepares to move on in the steam of life, I implore you to continue to seek to learn more of how to be kind, how to be tolerant, and always maintain a degree of flexibility which is so necessary for your survival. Though your individual survival may be paramount to you, your contemporary society will measure your worth in terms of the type of contribution which you make towards its welfare. This is as it should be. The life of a democratic community is wholly conditioned by the efforts of its members for its betterment. The main purpose of free public education, such as you have enjoyed, is the production of an educated citizenry to perpetuate its growth. Now that you see your obligations, we all hope that you will meet them successfully. We, on this shore, should never forget that men first crossed this rushing stream of life, not to find soil for their ploughs, but to secure wealth for our future — MRS. POLLY O. RICHARDS, B. S.

T. Barber to begin their high school career. We were also thrilled to be the first class to enter the new structure as high school pupils. After divers weeks of confusion, everything settled down to moderation; thus our advisors, Mrs. M. S. Faison, Mrs. D. C. Gardner, Mr. A. Attmore, Mrs. P. O. Richards, Mrs. J. H. Heughan and the students became acquainted. After our advisors briefed us on the various extracurricular activities in the school we chose the follow¬ ing: Monie Armond, Lillie Murrell, Eliza Sutton, Ruth Gavin, Vera Bryant, Shirley Roundtree, Barbara Vails, Grace Richardson, Lois Hawkins, Carolyn Edwards, Dorothy Nelson, Patricia Roberson, Melba Banks, Beverly Nobles and Loretta Ryder chose the N. H. A., while Doris Gaskins, Elsie Gaskins, Gladys Sapp, Carolyn Durante, Carolyn Dillahunt, Delores Smith and Devora Wilson became interested in the Drama Guild. Five girls, Carolyn Edwards, Eliza Sutton, Dorothy Nelson, Grace Richardson and Beverly Nobles joined the Math Club, as Patricia Roberson, Margaret Harris, Paul Daniels, John Scott, Cleo Fisher, Steven Berry and Frank Staten became Science Club members. Our Student Council representatives were Carolyn Webb, Barbara Vails, Patricia Roberson and Doris Gaskins, while Dorothy Nelson, Carolyn Dillahunt, Lois Hawkins, Loretta Ryder, Margaret Spears and Beverly Nobles were Glee Club members. William Guion, Robert Allen, William Blount, Roland Kennedy and George Williams were football heroes. The cheering squad members supporting the football team were Barbara Vails, Janice Saunders, Velma Hill, Sarah Yates, Orcee Pickett and Jimmy Atkins. The boys basketball team consisted of William Guion, Robert Allen, George Williams and William Blount, while our girl athletes were Carolyn Dillahunt, Velma Hill, Joyce Best, Margaret Spears and Carolyn Webb. At the beginning of our Sophomore year the class organized as a whole. Also during this year other interesting events happened to the members of our class: Loretta Ryder won first prize in State Typing Contest, Bobbye Williams was elected State Treasurer of Student Council and Jean Sykes was one of our Homecoming attendants. Also in our sophomore year with the participation of our following members, Fredrick Barber, Bobbye Williams, Edward Lovick, Russell Gould, Loretta Ryder, Lavema Thomas and Gladys Sapp, the Band re¬ ceived a rating of one in the State Band Festival in Greensboro. Charles Williams, Cleo Fisher, Robert Smith, Allen Kornegay, William Guion and Lester Reed were sophomore football boys who played on the ' 56 State Championship Team. Additional members to the Student Council were Velma Hill, Ruth Gavin, Monie Armond and William Guion. As it is traditional for sophomore girls and boys to enter the Tri-Hi-Y and the Hi-Y, Eliza Sutton, Loretta Ryder, Shirley Roundtree, Ruth Gavin, Velma Hill and Devora Wilson were elgible for the Tri- Hi-Y, while Orcee Pickett, Leroy Matthews, Cleo Fisher, Edward Gibbs and Russell Gould were Hi-Y members. Patricia Roberson, Carrie Battle, Fannie Roberson, and Lillie Murrell chose the N.H.A. Charm Club members were Grace Richardson, Carolyn Edwards, Barbara Vails, Barbara Rasberry, Cherry White, Gertrude Daniels, Monie Armond, Elma Goss, Doris Gaskins, Grace Blount, Hattie George, Physia Washington, Elsie Gaskins, Beverly Nobles and Ina White. Carolyn Edwards, Doris Gaskins, Melba Banks, Gertrude Daniels, Joyce Daniels and Eliza Sutton chose ' the Math Club. Our third or junior year, we started under the supervision of Mrs. M. S. Faison, Mrs. D. C. Gardner and Mrs. P. O. Richards. By mid-year, Miss M. E. Jeffreys replaced Mrs. Gardner. Knowing that we were to give the prom, we immediately began money raising projects. These projects consisted of a Sweetheart’s Ball, Ministrel Show and the selling of license plates. Thus, on the third night of May 1958, 26 our dream of a Hawaiian Junior and Senior prom was made realistic. We, the juniors, will always remain grateful to our fellow-classmates and others who helped to make our prom a successful one. Adding to the highlights of our junior year, we were proud to have Russell Gould and Loretta Ryder to receive the highest scores in our school from the National Merit Scholarship Examination. Ruth Gavin won the county spelling contest and Russell Gould won a Loving Cup from Barnes Business School Word-A-Rama Contest. We were also proud to have Hattie George crowned as Miss Homecoming 57. As yqircan see from the statements above that our junior year was very interesting and eventful. In spite of our eventful year we still carried on various activities in our school. Those joining the F. T.A. were Grace Richardson, Beverly Nobles, Joyce Best, Luretta Hicks, Carolyn Edwards and Vera Bryant. Library Club members were Elsie Gaskins, Physia Washington, Melba Banks, Charity Bryant, Archene Barfield and Hattie George. Those eligible for the Crown and Sceptre were Shirley Roundtree, Eliza Sutton, Loretta Ryder, Elsie Gaskins, Doris Gaskins, Cora Smith and Ruth Gavin. Additional Tri-Hi-Y members were Carolyn Webb, Carolyn Edwards, Carolyn Durante, Patricia Rober¬ son, Eray Moore and Monie Armond. Edward Lovick, Orcee Pickett, Willie Styron, Edward Gibbs, Offie Brown, Loretta Ryder, Bobbye Williams and Lloyd Stancil were our band members, while Eray Moore, Doris Gaskins, Carolyn Durante, Lois Hawkins, Ruth Gavin, Beverly Nobles, Grace Richardson and Cherry White were Glee Club members. We had five boys on the football team, Harry Blount, Robert Smith, Thomas Kinsey, Charles Williams and William Blount, while Frederick Barber, Willie Styron, Russell Gould and William Blount played on the basketball team. Girls o n the basketball team were Patricia Roberson, Velma Hill and Cora Smith. Upon returning for our senior year we were in a blithe state because we found most of our senior class¬ mates returning for the last mile, but we became dejected when we heard of our classmate, Jackie Elliot ' s death during the summer vacation. Because we had elected our officers at the end of our Junior year, the senior class started in full force with Russell Gould, President; Loretta Ryder, Vice President; Elsie Gaskins, Secretary; Shirley Roundtree, Assistant Secretary; Carolyn Durante, Treasurer; Ruth Gavin, Business Manager; Margaret Spears, Reporter; and Orcee Pickett, Parliamentarian. Additional Student Council members for 1958-59 were Beverly Nobles, Patricia Roberson, Monie Armond, Carolyn Durante and Eray Moore, with Ruth Gavin presiding. New F. T. A. members were Margaret Jones, Lois Hawkins and Ida Hill. The seniors selected for the Yearbook Staff were Monie Armond, Archene Barfield, Carolyn Edwards, Margaret Spears and Eliza Sutton. We were thrilled to have Lester Reed to participate in the Shrine Bowl, and also happy to hear of Ruth Gavin ' s wonderful trip to Ferguson, Missouri to represent our State in the National Student Council Con¬ vention. We shall never forget our blithe trip to A. T. College for Senior Day. You can see from the facts that we have related to you, our four years of high school consisted of both pleasure and diligence. We shall always remain grateful to our advisors for their assistance and guidance throughout the years.

Yes, the method, but to gain knowledge has always been one of man’s prime aims. This year, for the first time in the history of the school, J. T. Barber High, is participating in an education experiment. The purpose of this experiment is to find out if large groups can learn as effectively with the aid of television as small groups can with or without television. In the foreground are ninth grade pupils - 118 of them participating in the experiment, North Carolinian-School Television.” For the pupils, it is a science class entitled Ninth Grade Physi¬ cal Science under the direction of Mr. W. G. Keyes, just as any other class except that tele¬ vision is used as the audio-visual aid. Having a membership of 118 pupils, this class is an official class. Classes of a least ninety and upward to three hundred meet the requirement for this classification. This entitles the class to receive all information including aids, guide- sheets, tests, and the like. But along with receiving such information necessary for the class, the local science teacher must make certain periodic reports, including test results, progress reports, and other reports of evaluation information. Local or classroom teachers are also re¬ quested to attend the several workshops at Woman ' s College, Greensboro, and other sectional meetings necessary to correlate local lessons with those of the entire state which are participating in the experiment. Telelessons originate in the Studios of WUNC-TV Channel 4, Woman ' s College, Greensboro, with Mrs. May E. Denton of the college as the Studio Teacher. Dr. Charles W. Phillips, also of the college, is the Director of the entire Educational Experiment. With the several school systems of North Carolina and several schools of South Carolina and Virginia, The University of North Carolina, and The Fund for the Advancement of Science of the Ford Foundation, telelessons are received via Television Station WNCT Channel 9, Green¬ ville. These begin at 9:30 o ' clock daily Monday through Friday except the last Thursday of each month which is given for the local science teacher. 40 The river is a looking-glass and gives back to every student the reflection of his own face — and Student Council Officers The main objectives are to pro¬ mote better relationships between both the student body and the faculty; to give students practical knowledge of school government, and to encourage good citizenship. The Student Council of J. T. Barber High School is affiliated with the North Carolina Association of Student Councils. In June, 1958 the student body President and Secretary of the N. C. A. S. C. , Ruth Gavin, helped to represent North Carolina at the National S, C. Convention in Ferguson, Missouri. In December, 1958 J. T. Barber Student Council will send delegates to the State Con¬ vention in Goldsboro, N. C. 42 Left to right: Jessie Stancil, Barbara Guion, Maxine Murray, Ruth Gavin, Cleo Fisher, Vera Bryant, William Guion. Crown and Scepter Jnitrates The main objectives are to elevate three cardinal principles: Scholarship, Character, and Serv¬ ice. One requirement is to main¬ tain an average of B or above for the first two years of high school. Some of our activities for this year are: to present a Stu¬ dent of the month, to publish the honor roll each six weeks, and to sponsor a chapel program to the student body. 43 Homecoming Homecoming events began at J.

Their aims of creating, maintaining and extending through¬ out the home, school and community high standards of Christian character are carried out in several projects, one of which is worshipping regularly as a body at various churches in the community. The Hi-Y boys are looked up to as the big brothers of the school.

Barber Cittle t heatre From Shakespeare to Shaw, the Little Theater of Barber High presents to us the works of the greatest playwrights, and for a period of time, transports us into another world. For the purpose of discovering and developing such dramatic potentialities as may be dominant among the student body, it is also their hope to build well-rounded personalities. Their presentations included during the course of the year Young Doctor Young, a three-act human relations drama, In the Shadows, and Rusty From Redrock, both one-act plays.

Development of greater music apprecia¬ tion is the main objective and the Glee Club is skillfully directed by Mrs. F. C.

It is acquired through generations of living and building up traditions and customs. Every phase of living presents its cultural aspects and has some central or focal point from which it radiates its own particular cultural advant¬ ages. The auditorium, which is the meeting place for the faculty and students in our school, constitutes a large portion of our cultural training and entertain¬ ment.

Our Parent- Zeacker Association — A close link between home and school Our Competent President The purpose of the P.T.A. is to establish a better relationship between parents and teachers. During the course of the past year the P.T.A. con¬ ducted a round table discussion on the problems of juvenile delinquency as it affects the youth of our community. Participating were Miss E. M. Lewis, Rev. Johnson, Mr. T. Brown, Mrs. A. Fenner and Mr. G. C. Fields. Another outstanding feature of the year was a dis¬ cussion titled The Effects of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco on Teenagers. Some interesting conclusions were drawn. Besides its damaging affect on the physi¬ cal body, alcohol also demoralizes youth emotionally, and causes a stunting of physical and mental growth. Under the influence of alcohol, youths commit crimes without realizing the extent of their actions. They lose control of themselves emotionally and as a re¬ sult, they have no restraint or inhibition. Continued use over a long period of time eventually makes them chronic alcoholics. MR. JOHN A.
