THOMAS JEFFERSON 1743 - 1826 President of the United States 1801 - 1809 (Courtesy West Point Museum) On September 1, 1964, the doors of Jef- ferson High were opened to some 1,500 new: comers. In the year that followed, the three attributes of Thomas Jefferson: patriotism, scholarship, and creativeness, were often re- flected in the student body. Jefferson High was transformed from a lifeless pile of bricks and mortar into a school —alive and purposeful. As each organization was formed and as each event occurred, an imprint was made which will last for years to come. ‘Cherish the spirit of the people.’’ —Thomas Jefferson i 8 hed “To render the people safe, their minds must be im- proved.” — Thomas Jefferson ‘Taste cannot be controlled by law.” — Thomas Jefferson . wm WAS ee ee Re i: Be : ites, . ek is, Net J.H.S. in July, 1963 (Photo by Don Henretty) A FINE NEW SCHOOL MIRRORS AN EXCEPTIONAL COMMUNITY A $2,283,520 school building doesn’t just appear overnight. To open Jefferson High in 1964, a farsighted School Board and County Administration started plan- ning early in 1962. After lengthy site discussions the Braddock Rd. location was chosen in April of that year. Land was acquired and bids were invited within a few more months. By winter, 1963-64, the nearly completed building was providing emergency classrooms for Brad- dock Elementary School while fire damage to that school was repaired. And in September 1964 Jefferson opened for 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th graders from the J.E.B. Stuart, Annandale, Woodson, and Lee High School areas. Parents who've been through it will tell you, when the keys to a new school are turned over, their job has just begun. It’s a staggering one, and it’s done well only if there’s whole-hearted support from the school com- munity. Band uniforms, choir robes, stadium lighting, and many other items not available from public funds must be obtained. Until these needs are met there is a continual round of bake sales, car washes, magazine sales drives, and other fund-raising projects. The moth- ers and fathers, sisters and brothers, friends and neigh- bors making up the school community are the ones who pitch in and make these efforts succeed. Our community in 1965 consists mainly of some 1,400 families living in comfortable, attractive homes spread over the gentle wooded hills of the Annandale- Bailey’s Crossroads — Falls Church—Springfield area. These homes have sent us unusually fine students. For this, and for their generous response to the needs of their high school during its first year, we thank our community. It’s an exceptional one, and we’re proud to be a part of it. Merritt F. Ruhlen, former School Board member, Joseph A. Miller, Grounds Dept. Supervisor, James D. Wooldridge, Asst. Supt. of Construction, and Mr. Jordan, Jefferson High Principal, discuss one of the more than 100 trees and shrubs donated to Jefferson by Mr. Ruhlen.

QUITE A FACULTY, ALL THINGS CONSIDERED If our staff and faculty are proud of their school community, the community has reason to return the feeling. Mr. Jordan made good use of the opportunity to select personnel for the new school, and we think that, all things considered, Jefferson High started out with quite an impressive faculty and administration. The 77 faculty members who either teach or di- rectly support the teaching, brought to their jobs a total of 30 Master’s degrees (a dozen or so more are nearly finished with the requirements for the Master’s); more than 90 years of graduate study; 310 years of college-level study; and a total of well over 1,300 years of formal education! The staff and faculty averages nine years of teaching experience. More than half of them have traveled extensively in Europe, the Middle and Far East, Mexico, Canada, the Pacific Islands, or South America. About one-fourth have lived abroad, including a number who have stud- ied or taught in foreign countries. Many have varied experiences in other fields, such as journalism, radio and television, theatre, concert singing, musical performing or directing, sculpture, Red Cross service, college teaching and administrative work, handling foreign exchange students, and assignments with the National Science Foundation. Nearly all of the staff and faculty have given needed support and encouragement to the scores of newly forming extra-curricular student activities which characterize a modern high school. (Elsewhere in this book some 40 of these formally chartered clubs and organizations are described). Some of our teachers are committed to assisting as many as four or five of these groups, and devote many late afternoon and evening hours to their success. Collectively, our staff and faculty is an unusually well-educated and mature group, with a wealth of wis- dom and experience to draw upon. The challenge of such an eager student body seems to bring out the best in them. They work well together, with much good humor and fun, and a clear devotion to the tasks they share. Our faculty at the first P.T.A. meeting. 14 OUR PRINCIPAL: He runs a good school, and we like him. His college program interrupted by World War II, Mr. Jordan earned his wings as a Naval aviator at Pensacola, Florida, during that period. Serving on the east coast, he flew dive bombers and torpedo bombers. He had been assigned to the Midway, the first carrier with an all steel flight deck, and was ready to leave for Japan at the time of the Japanese surrender. After the war, Mr. Jordan returned to college, and earned his B.A. degree at Bridegwater. He then spent four years at Newport High School in Giles County, southwest Virginia, first as a teacher and later as a teacher-principal. Then came four years as principal of another Giles County school, the Narrows High School. When Fairfax County created the position of As- sistant Principal for Instruction, Mr. Jordan was among the first chosen, and his appointment was at Mount Vernon High, where he served two years. When Robert E. Lee High School opened, Mr. Jor- dan was its first Assistant Principal for Administration. After one year in this job, he became principal of Falls Church High, where he remained for five years until WILLIAM H. JORDAN B.A., Bridgewater M.Ed., University of Virginia his selection to head the new administration of Jeffer- son High. This succession of appointments clearly indicates the respect and regard for him felt by members of his profession generally, and particularly by those to whom he reports officially. It is also quite evident that those who serve under his direction enjoy working with him. Out of 77 staff and faculty members at Jefferson when it opened, 22 were persons who had served before with Mr. Jordan. Most of the key positions in his present ad- ministration are filled by people who held comparable jobs with him elsewhere. Small wonder, then, with such built-in teamwork, that the new school got off to such a good start and has run so smoothly this first year. As one of his teachers puts it, ’’He knows his busi- nes thoroughly, he keeps everyone informed, he’s loyal and backs you up when you’re right, he’s patient, tole- rant, firm but very fair, he sets the example by work- ing as hard as anyone else and harder than most. All in all, he’s a nice person to work for.” The students agree. Our principal runs a good school, and we like him. 15 ‘a : The Assistant Principal For Administration If a high school had a title like Dean of the Faculty, surely Mr. Barrett would carry it at Jefferson. He’s the senior of them all in years of exoerience, and he’s done just about every- thing in the school business. He was a teacher and a principal in rural schools from one end of Virginia to the other for 24 years before coming to Fairfax County. Before joining the Jef- ferson staff he spent several years at Falls Church High in the same position he now holds— Assistant Principal for Administration. Students see him everywhere, for he is concerned with their safety and welfare from the moment the busses roll onto the school grounds in the morn- ing till the last one departs in the evening. A student’s locker gets jammed, or a fire alarm is accidentally tripped, or a teacher loses a key: Mr. Barrett sets things aright. These and dozens of details like them fill his day. He’s kind and wise and patient and good-humored — and he needs all these qualities and more to yor what otherwise could be a nerve-shattering job. + . ‘ec FRANK BERNARD B.S., State University of New York M.A., New York University The Administrative Aide His title doesn’t tell much about what he actually does, probably because no one has come up with a title that would encompass it all. But he sure gets into a lot of things, and he covers a lot of ground in a day’s time. Mainly it seems that he pitches in when Mr. Jordan or Mr. Barrett or Mr. Bernard (or all three at once) need an extra pair of hands. He’s out with the busses in the morning, back in the office in time for daily announcements over the P.A. system, out again on his rounds all over the building, and back once more to his office in time for a steady grind of phone calls and conferences dealing with all the many kinds of problems students can generate. Here his experience as a guidance counselor comes in handy, for now and again a per- sistent rules-breaker takes much patience and understanding before he’s back on the track. Mr. Visnich has to be an investigator, a law enforcer, a father confessor, a wailing wall, and a few other things. Mostly he’s a friend to ‘’the kids,’’ and they know it, for he’s also a popular club sponsor and chaperone and a front-row-center member of the cheering section whenever a Colonial team takes the field. Do you know who does the planning and looking ahead to see that we have these things? Ever think about the complicated scheduling that has to be done so we can get the courses we need, in the right sequence? Or who worries about making the best use of all the classrooms and labs and the library and auditorium and the rest of our teaching facilities? These are some of Mr. Bernard’s responsibilities as Assistant Principal for Instruction. Most of his work goes on at times and in ways that students wouldn’t know about, but i WILL H. BARRETT B.S., Washington and Lee University M.A., University of Virginia The Assistant Principal For Instruction Ever stop to consider how much teaching equipment our school has? All the microscopes, test tubes, stoves, sewing machines, movie and slide and film strip projectors, tape recorders, typewriters, shop tools, charts, maps, and all that? And all the textbooks and art materials and music stands and phonograph records and a hundred other things we use? it’s the heart and soul of a good school operation. If you like the teaching you're getting, in- clude Mr. Bernard in your thanks, for the impetus comes from him.

We owned about 7,500 books, enough to meet accreditation standards, and by mid-year had more than 6,000 of them cataloged and in circulation. The staff aims at maximum accessibility and use of the library and is proud to record an average monthly circulation of 2,200 books. We strive to provide an attractive, enjoyable place for both student and faculty reading and reference uses. This facility is designed to be the “‘heart’’ of the school, functioning as a service agency to further school objectives; as a teaching agency to help students find and use information; as a laboratory through which to explore different realms of knowledge; and as a materials cen- ter for organizing, arranging, and displaying the school’s collec- tion. Meanwhile it continues to be an enjoyable spot for visiting and browsing, where friendliness and helpfulness are paramount. We are staffed by two librarians, but could not function with- out the efficient and whole-hearted work of the library assistants. These students, each volunteering a period a day, run the charg- ing desk, charge books out, process incoming books, shelve books and check the order of shelves, check in and maintain the order of periodicals, notify students of overdue books, count circulation, and do many other tasks which free the librarians for reference work and the ever-present problems of ordering, classifying, cata- loging, and processing of new books. Library assistants are indis- pensable to the running of a school library, and Jefferson is proud of its team of assistants for 1964-1965. MARY T. FITZPATRICK MARY P.

FIDALGO B.A., American University Department Chairman ENGUSH DEPARTMENT The English Department tried in its first year to broaden its curriculum and augment the usual dust and grammar of high school English. First of all, team teaching was introduced to two junior classes. In these the instruction in English and History were coordinated. Developing the inter- relation of the arts, a lecture by a member of the Art Department on the history of art was given to all English classes. The department also sponsored field trips to universities in the area, to plays, and to concerts. In the planning stages also is an advanced place- ment senior English class to be inaugurated in 1965-1966. The person most responsible for the success of the department is Mrs. Yvonne C. Fidalgo, fondly known as ‘‘Queenie’’ by all her loyal subjects. She gives the objectives of the English Department as these: to teach the individual student to read and listen with understanding; to think rationally; to speak and write well; to appreciate literature and language; and to be prepared to take his place as an active citizen of the c ommunity.

McCONNELL B.A., University of Richmond Department Chairman The Department of Foreign Languages sought to give pupils valuable skills in under- standing, speaking, reading, and writing French, German, Latin, and Spanish. The language laboratory, built to the most modern specifications, was a helpful tool which provided excel- lent opportunity for listening and speaking practice. An increasing emphasis was placed on reading and writing in the advanced courses, and much cultural material such as songs, pic- tures, reports, and presentations by visiting lecturers enriched the total experience. Interest clubs, which provided extracurricular fun and opportunities, were available for enjoyment of skills learned in classes. Our school was especially fortunate in having teachers this year who are fluent and talented in their chosen languages. parts. 24 2 2 tah CAROL E. DEAL THOMAS DeLaFLEUR ANN L. HERRELL HARVEY E.

The objective of the Social Studies Department is to develop understandings of contemporary civilization in each student in order to produce intelligent, responsible citizens for the future. These understandings are world-wide in scope and cannot be limited to a narrow study of our own society. It is for this reason that a variety of courses concerned with physical environment, history, government, and related social fields are required of all students. DONALD S.

BURTON DEPARTMENT M.Ed, Universty! of: North CoP Department Chairman Pythagoras and company still belong, but the club is larger now This year, the Math Dept. gave courses appropriate for the 8th, 9th, 10th and 11th graders comprising its students. Nowadays 8th grade math covers arithmetic through the real number system; an introduction to algebra through the solving of simple equations and in- equalities; and a very good intuitive grounding in the basic ideas of geometry, including some work with solid figures. Our program is sufficiently flexible to allow us to offer any course at the time when the student is mature enough and prepared to take it. The normal high school curriculum offers Algebra | in the 9th grade, Geometry for 10th graders, and Algebra I| Trigonometry for 11th graders. Next year as our students move up into a proper high school pattern, courses for 9th through 12th grades will include an option for 11th graders (according to their abilities and intended college program) between Algebra || only, or the more intensive Algebra II Trigonometry. Added for 12th graders will be a course in Analysis; some seniors may choose the Func- tions and Matrices course given this year to accelerated juniors. All math is taught in the contemporary context now widely used throughout the country. Our math is as ‘‘modern’’ as any, but parents still troubled by occasional bits of unfamiliar terminology now used may be assured that underneath, it’s all pretty much the same. The math they learned is still valid, but more has been added, and a new, more precise way of talking about mathematical ideas has been adopted. usheus Oa Ade et SHUM ur yo4 Riv!

AKI DEPARTMENT The Art Department offers a four-year program combining intensive studio work in drawing, painting, sculpture, and design with art history, criticism, and the philosophy of art, as well as the interrelations of art with the other subject areas. Emphasizing drawing and design, the program gives broad experience with varied materials and techniques including water- color, tempera, oils, charcoal, ink, ceramics, and wood. Slides, films, and books provide resource material in both history and theory. The Department seeks to stimulate the creative growth of each student, and for those who elect the full program, intensive instruction is offered as a foundation for university study and an Gniscareet, ’ wh: ELIZABETH C.

The band and vocal classes joined forces in the Candy Drive In addition to band and vocal classes, general music classes ; ; : . . td were held in nine-week blocks for eighth-graders. In these classes and in the Christmas concert, where they performed Handel's the students were taught music theory, composers, styles, musical Hallelujah Chorus. The Department also provided music for as- forms, and music history, as well as singing in a chorus and listen- semblies and other special occasions. JOHN A.

And in these ways, the ring represents the junior class. The year began with a resounding victory as the juniors led the Flames in the Magazine Drive. Didn't Mrs. Fidalgo make a marvelous monarch? The first of the college board exams were over and done with — the entire class breathed a sigh of relief. The final results brought disappointment to some, satisfaction to many. No one can deny that there are many scholars among the ranks of juniors. Many were inducted into the National Honor Society this spring. In all their responsibilities, the juniors proved en- thusiastic and diligent. Indeed they set standards that all future underclassmen might do well to follow. 42 Betty Reese, Sec.; Chris Oseguedo, Treas.; Ron Rector, Pres.; Kathi Durnford, Vice-Pres.; Lois Bergman, Sen.; Mrs. Fidalgo, Mr. Will, Sponsors.

The officers pledged to bring the class together in unity and to lay a good foundation for the class in the years to come. The first activity planned for the year was the presenta- tion of the movie production of Julius Caesar which ”. . . did the general coffers fill.’’ Acting in the true tradition of sophomores brought together from various schools, the class united and took part in the Sophomore-Junior basketball game. Sophomores proudly displayed the class colors by wearing burgundy and white beanies. By permitting the wearers to attend the class dance free of charge, the beanies proved practical as well as colorful. The class was conscious of the need for service to others and made themselves available when called upon. The struggle for organization and unity is won—the soph- omores look ahead to the new challenges of the coming year. 78 Richard Hamilton, Vice-Pres.; Joyce Clark, Sen.; Rick Squires, Pres.; Mr. DeLaFleur, Spon.; Debbie Sadoti, Se c.; Mark Hanabury, Treas.; Elaine Vescovi, Sen. rir’ JOYCE ANDRADE DIANE ARANY LARRY BAHL MARK BARNES BECKY BARTA 80 RICHARD AHLFIELD VALERIE AHN JOHN ALDEN BILL ALLEN SHERRY ALLBRIGHT GARY BASYE BARBARA BATSON BILL BEAN BILL BEARDEN BARBARA BECK BRIAN BECK TOM BELISLE AL BENKERT DON BENNER MICHELE BERARD RENEE BERARD GINGER BIENERT DOUG BITTENBENDER NANCY BOICE WENDY BONE GARY BOOKER LINDA BOYD CECILLA BRANTNER PAT BREEDEN SHARON BREWINGTON BRUCE BRITTON SUZANNE BROWN JOAN BROWNELL MARGARET BROWNELL PATSY BROWNING BILL BRUENING RICHARD BURDICK MARCY CALL JESSICA CAMPBELL PHYLLIS CANTRELL DENNY CARLYLE DIANE CARTER KATHERINE CARTER SLYVIA CASE TERI CHEGIN DENNIS CLARK JOYCE CLARK KAREN CLARK KAREN CLEFTON CAROLYN COFFEY 8] o CHARLES CORNETT SUZANNE COVEL STEVE COWAN JIM CRADLIN CHARLES CRAFT 82 KEN COFFMAN CHRIS COOLIDGE BRUCE COLLIER TERRY CORCORAN RICK COREY LINDA CROCKETT RICHARD CROSS MIMI CROZIER MICKEY CZARNY ALAN DAHL JULIE ANN DAKIN DICK DALTON CHARLIE DANIELS MARY DANIELS JIM DAUGHERTY MARY DAVIDSON JIM DAWSON JERRY DEAN LARRY DEATON 6 TRACY DEIHR CINDY DERR CHRISTINE DICKSON TONI DOWNS CONNIE DRAPER DONIS DRYE BOB DRYE RICHARD DUFFY CHARLES DUTTON ANNE EAGON ROBBY EAVES DEAN ELLIOTT ANN FLIPSE IRENE FLUCKIGER TERRY FLYNN JANIS FOOTE OSCAR FOSCATO JANET FREEMAN JANIE FRYE BOB FUNDERBURK MIKE FUNSTON DAN GABOCY JERRY GILBERT KERRY GRADY BARBARA GRAHAM 83 PAT GRIFFIN GEOFFREY GRIFFITHS JUNIOR GRIMSLEY KAREN GRODOWITZ MARGIE GROVE DON HADDOC K CHRIS HAINES RICHARD HAMILTON BRENDA HAMNER LINDA HAMMER YVONNE HAMMOND WHILE OTHERS TAKE SOPHOMORES ENJOY BASKETBALL MARK HANABURY JERRY HANEY DEBBIE HARLAN RONALD HART STEPHEN HARVITH TERRY HASSELL “Down boys!”’ cries Mr. Hulen, ’| was only kidding!”’ 84 oF MIKE HAYDEN KENNY HAYES MIKE HEALY JEFRRRIELSEEY JOHN HEMPEL JACKIE HENDERSON RUTH HENNIGAN JANET HERMON TOM HERRELL BOB HESSLER JO HESTOR S.C.A.T.

The monotony of a school day was easily broken by the unsophisticated yet polished manner of the freshmen. Their ready laughter and eagerness for a good time abounded in the halls of Jefferson High School. Yet they realized also the responsibilities of at- tending a high school and they were ready to accept them. Many of them were outstanding students who set excellent examples for others. Later, as they look back on their freshman year they will fondly remem- ber their activities together. 96 Mr. Waring, Mrs. Wood, Richard Scroggs, Sallie Scanlan, Nancy Wren, Pam Wolle, Tom Withers. 97.

Lis EIGHTH GRADERS An eighth grader... ina high school? Why not? Jefferson High School welcomed all its students regardless of their grade levels. The eighth graders quickly proved their alertness and ability to accept the responsibilities of going to a high school. They were over-flowing with school spirit and displayed it many times throughout the year. Their class dances were always a success; and their scholastic abilities were well demonstrated. The eighth graders were indeed instrumental in the building and the establishing of tradition at Thomas Jefferson High School. 116 Bre. Mr. Mitchell.

Halfback Steve Wood put the Colonials on the scoreboard first, with an 18-yard run. The Knights scored quickly, and Jefferson went into the locker room at half-time with only a | point lead, due to Ken Hayes’ run after Wood's touchdown. A fired up Jefferson team took to the field in the second half! Steve Wood crossed the goal line twice giv- ing the Colonials their second win. 142 Jefferson made its football debut September 12, 1964, defeating Groveton’s J.V., 19-6. The Co- lonials scored quickly in the first quarter with a 33-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jerry Moore to split-end Richard Corey. Kicking off to Groveton, Jefferson quickly re- gained possession of the ball and fullback Don Ruch carried it into the end zone from the |-yard line. The extra point was added by a pass from Jerry Moore to Richard Corey. In the 4th quarter Groveton scored first but Jefferson came back with Ken Hayes scoring from the 9-yard line, giving the Colonials their first win. On September 26th Steve Wood took over where he had left off in the last game and went 34 yards for the first score against Woodson. Ron Rector added the extra point with a quick dash around the end. The Colonials struck again as Steve Wood left the Cava- liers strewn all over the field in his 91 yard run. Ken Hayes gathered in a 17 yard pass from Jerry Moore, giving the Colonials a comfortable lead of 21-0, at half-time. Steve Wood came back in the second half to score for the third time on a 25 yard run, making two rushes in a row. The defensive team bottled up the Woodson of- fense all night, giving Jefferson its first shutout. The Colonials scored early in the first quarter as Scott Harris, defensive star in the first games, proved himself to be an offensive threat as well, when he scored from the 19-yard line. Jefferson scored again in the second quarter, as this time, 210 lb. fullback Don Ruch bulldozed his way over the goal line from the 5-yard line. Jerry Moore kicked the extra point for a second time. The final score of the game came on a beautifully executed pass play from Jerry Moore to his favorite deep receiver, Richard Corey. Catching the pass, Corey outraced the Statesmen defenders for a total of 60 yards. For the second time the defense turned in a remarkable performance and shut out the States- men. October 21st marked the beginning of the second half of the Colonials’ season. Steve Wood started the scoring when he turned the end for 35 yards. The Colonials quickly took possession of the ball again, and Wood electrified the crowd with a 75-yard exhibition of open field running, ending in the Fed- eral end zone. In the third quarter halfback Wood scored his third touchdown on a plunge over the goal line. Ken Hayes scored the final touchdown from 3 yards out. The defense succeeded for the fourth time in shutting out the opponents. 143 On October 17th, the Wakefield J.V., hailed as the best J.V. team in Northern Virginia, provided the first true test of the Jefferson team. The first break of the game came in the third quarter when a stray Wake- field ball took a wild bounce into the hands of Jefferson linebacker Don Ruch, who went 15 yards into the end zone for the first score. Then in the fourth quarter, Ken Hayes and Jerry Moore combined ef- forts to raise the score to 13-0. The defense then stopped any more Warrior advances, giving the Colonials their third straight shutout. A strong Herndon team stopped the Colonials at first, but before half-time Jerry Moore connected with a short pass to Wood who raced 33 yards for a score. After a scoreless third quarter, Herndon seemed to fall apart as the Colonials stung the Hornets for four last-quarter touchdowns. Don Ruch on a 4-yard plunge, Paul Tuttle on a 55-yard side-line sprint, and John Reidelbach on an interception and 26-yard carry, scored in that order. The final score came on a 52-yard run over and around Herndon defenders by Ken Hayes. Jerry Moore added all four extra points in the explosive fourth quarter. This was the fifth successive game in which the Colonials held opponents scoreless. Jefferson came into the game on November 5th with a 7-0 record, so Stuart, in an attempt to put an end to this, brought down several boys from the varsity. An ex-Raider, Scott Harris, played his best game of the season. He scored the only touchdown of the game on a 12-yard carry right through the middle of the Stuart defense. The Raider offense never had a chance to get started, as linebackers Harris and Offut spent most of their time in the Stuart backfield. This was the eighth victory and the sixth shut- out of the year. Annandale also had visions of being the first to defeat the Colonials; they too had dropped some varsity players especially for the game. Steve Wood chalked up the first points by scor- ing from the 9-yard line. Jerry Moore gave the Co- lonials their seventh point. Annandale however, came uncomfortably close in the last play of the first half, when an Atom de- fender picked off Don Ruch’s pass and returned it 80 yards for the score. The Colonials came back in the second half with Ken Hayes giving Jefferson a quick 2 points by drag- ging down the Atom quarterback in his own end zone. Then Steve Wood plunged into the end zone for 6 more points. The final points came on the second safety of the evening, when Ken Hayes and Dave Morrow teamed up to drop an Annandale halfback in the Atom’s end zone, giving Jefferson its ninth victory. 144 LAST GAME BRINGS SEASON OF VICTORY. It was indeed Friday, the 13th of November, as the Lancers scored first on a 75 yard drive. The Colonials came back though, as Jerry Moore hit Jim Maness on a 17 yard pass play. Jefferson scored again before halftime when Scott Harris carried the pigskin the final yard across the goal line, cap- ping a 75 yard advance. Jerry Moore’s kick gave the Colonials a 13-6 lead. In the second half Lee scored twice to give them a dangerous 19-13 lead. With about five minutes left in the game, the undaunted Colonials stood 61 yards from their goal. Unable to gain any yardage, Jerry Moore went back to punt. Maness separated the Lancers from the ball and Wood fell on the fumble. Several plays gained much needed yardage and then it was fourth down, four yards to go, and 55 seconds left in the game. Jerry Moore calmly step- ped back into the pocket and uncorked the tying score with a pass to Maness. Ron Rector placed the ball and Jerry Moore split the uprights, giving Jefferson an undefeated sea- son in its first year of play.

Chosen last fall on the basis of grades, personality, pep, and cheering ability, the squad consisted of nine juniors and one soph- omore. Their purpose was not only to cheer the Colonials to victory, but to promote school spirit and good sports- manship at all times. 148 Lois Bergman Linda Cone Toni Walter Barbara Jo Wood Linda Hardy VARSITY CHEERLEADERS Helen Peterson P_ Taffy Neuburg Gail Gorman Suzanne Beckley 149 First row: Kim Dollow, Cody Perry, Bill Bear, Brain Cook, Wayne Dennis, Nevell, David Powell, Solemon Tee.

Sixty-five boys turned out; however, only forty-four made the squad. Practices were hard and learning basic fundamentals took many hours. The season ended with the record of two wins and seven losses.Surprisingly enough, the team’s best effort was a losing game to Annandale, 7-6 Though not a winning season, Mr. Waring felt it was one in which a great deal was learned.

VARSITY BASKETBALL The 1964-65 Jefferson basketball season was characterized by outstanding team efforts, often sparked by fine individual perform- ances. Off to a fast and furious start, the Colonials first defeated Falls Church behind Mike Glaser’s 18 points and went on to post six straight victories by 12 points or more. George Washington was the next team to challenge our unbeaten record as they brought along their forty-seven-game winning streak looking for number forty-eight. Jerry Moore and Ron Rector paced the Colonials with 19 and 12 points respectively to lead the team to a 5 6-51 victory in what was undoubtedly the team’s best game. Terry Corcoran poured in 17 points as the Colonials won their eighth in a row — 62-52 over Lee. Once-beaten Hammond was next to oppose Jefferson. Jerry Moore’s 25 points and Jim Andrew’s 20 weren’t enough as the taller Admirals took a thriller in overtime 70-66. The Colonials got back on the winning trail in games with O’Connell, Stuart and Wakefield. Terry Corcoran and Mike Glaser sparked the team throughout the three games as the T.J. record now stood at 11-1. A strong Yorktown team appeared as if about to stage a runaway as they held an 8 point lead at intermission. Our Colonial team took the floor for the second half and ran up a 7 point lead as they scored 32 points in the third quarter. Yorktown slowly caught up, and finally won 44-43 as the winning basket came with only 27 seconds remaining. Jefferson quickly redeemed themselves as they unmercifully ran Edison off the floor with a score of 95-49. As Jim Andrews set a scor- ing record with 40 points, Dick Hamilton pulled 24 rebounds, estab- lishing another record. The Colonials successfully concluded the season by winning contests from Annandale and Mt. Vernon with Andrews scoring 93 points in the final three games. The Colonials were then invited to participate in the St. Stephens’ tournament with such Metropolitan power as Landon, Gonzaga, St. Stephens, and Episcopal. Jefferson was exceeded by at least one year’s experience and two to three inches per player as they were overpowered by Landon, Episcopal, and Good Counsel. Terry Corcoran, Jim Andrews, and Mike Glaser all showed promise for a succesful season in the 1-A league next year as they scored 50, 46, and 40 points respectively in the three game tournaments against truly tough and older competition. 152 Strategists Wickline and Hewitt hold Colonials’ utmost attention.

The key to their success was a hustling, tight, man-to-man defense and good team balance on offense. The defense was lead by the ball-hawking of guards Tom Andrews, John Bradley, and Mike Mi- leur, and the rebounding of Mike Clark, Rick Scroggs, and Steve Greenstreet. This defense held the oppo- sition to an average of 28 points per game. Offensively the team showed great balance with no individual averaging above 10 points a game. But Mike Clark, Tom Andrews, Steve Greenstreet, Rick Scroggs, John Bradley, and Mike Mileur averaged bet- ter than 5 points per game. The team averaged 47 points each game. Some highlights of the season included the 36-35 victory over a strong George Washington team, a near perfect performance in defeating a good Hammond team 50-25. Then the most courageous performance came in the final game of the season. Two boys moved up to varsity and with a third starter ill, the team poise and balance really came through with a 52-26 tromp- ing of Mt. Vernon. Judging by the performance of this team, the basketball future at Jefferson looks bright. 158 Colonials 30 37 49 36 43 50 35) 36 ay) 2 SCOREBOARD Falls Church Woodson Fort Hunt George Washington Lee Hammond O'Connell U2 ESBS stucar: Edison Mt.

GIRLS VARSITY BASKETBALL iy) Way 7 CY An Eaglette hopefully blocks Nancy Boice’s shot. Jefferson's first girls’ varsity basketball team completed a regular group IA schedule with five wins and seven losses. Co-captains Sidra Singer and Libby Tamson helped spark a team of four sophomores and eleven juniors to win over ex- perienced Edison, Falls Church, Lee, Madison, and Mount Vernon. High scorers for the season were Sidra Singer with an 11.7 point average and a 33 point single game record, and Nancy Boice with a 10.4 average. Janet Polk and Joyce Clark were high rebounders for the team. Susan Collier led in pass interceptions. The all-out team effort displayed throughout the season and the capable assistance of managers Ruth Hughes, Kathy Jones, and Linda Lantz have made this first basketball season one in which we can all take pride. 160 GIES: 16] Sidra Singer demonstrates an old tribal war dance to other members of the basketball team. The girls’ junior varsity team closed the season with a victorious 7-5 record. Close wins over Groveton and Edison, as well as victories in games with Lee and Falls Church thrilled players and coaches equally. High scorers for the season were Judy Stokes, Ginger Bienert, and Joan Brownell. Outstanding for defensive ability were Susan Lantz, Corrine Sorber, Charlene Tawney, and Karen Pacharzina. Susan Lantz and Joan Brownell shared the re- sponsibilities of co-captains. Efficient managers Sherry Cable and Lauren Orton, also deserve much credit. Against keen competition the girls played with skill and promising talent, giving a bright outlook for next year’s varsity team.

JEFFERSON WRESTLERS FOIL VARSITY FOES IN TOURNAMENT The Jefferson High Wrestling Team, coached by Mr. Rihn, finished the 1964-65 season with eleven wins, one loss, and one tie. The four members of the team that re- mained undefeated throughout the season were Lou Henderson, Robby Eaves, Jay Haw- kins and Tim Tyler. Playing against varsity teams in the tournaments, the Colonials held their own. Tim Tyler was in the quarter finals and Lou Henderson made the finals. With the help of the rising eighth and ninth graders, Mr. Rihn is looking forward to an even better season next year. Jay Hawkins begins another successful match which contributed to his unde- feated season. 162 SCOREBOARD Colonials Opponents 32 Yorktown 12 17 Washington Lee 27 36 Falls Church 8 34 Wakefield 16 49 Lee 5 38 Stuart 8 34 Mt.

Coach Hess felt that the following members showed the most promise at the beginning of the season: Paul Tuttle, Paul Morris, Jim Maness, Mike Kauffman, and Mark Garvey. Taking into consideration that the track team was facing varsity competition and only a few of the members had had any varsity or junior experience, they got off to a fine start.

Through the rivalry and excitement created by the intramural tournaments students proved just whose team was better! The girls’ activities included a sophomore vic- tory in a round-robin basketball tournament and participation in a Sports Day held at Woodson High School. The basketball team placed second in the competition between eight other schools. Here at Jefferson girls also took part in a table tennis tournament, whicti was won by Brenda Hammer and Della Wisniewski. Scheduled in the spring were a gymnastic tournament, volleyball, and track-and-field events. Mr. Wickline supervised the boys’ basketball intramural program while Mr. Sisley organized the bowling, table tennis, and volleyball teams. As our school grows we hope to expand our intramural offerings until every student is able to participate in at least one activity. Comprising the victorious basketball team were Francine Lee, Yvonne Hammond, Terry Marsh, Connie Knapp, Linda Shepherd, and Karen Armstrong.

In the growing drive of the secondary schools to stimulate an encourage excellence in their students the National Honor Society and the National Junior Honor Society stand as powerful allies. To those who are chosen for membership, the Honor Societies offer close association with their outstanding schoolmates. In addition, since most chapters undertake active pro- grams of service, they offer their members an oppor- tunity to begin upon a lifetime of service consonant with their great abilities. The outstanding service proj- ect of the Chapters at Jefferson High School is the free toutoring offered to deserving students who wish to strengthen skills in which the classroom teacher may not have time to help. It is not to scholarship alone that the Honor Societies give their support. Membership is always based upon a combination of scholarship with good citizenship and with personal qualities of leader- ship, and character. By their concern and support for high ideals of moral and spiritual values, the members of the Honor Societies provide a vital and respected force for good within our school.

Under the leadership of Jim An- drews, Jefferson’s Key Club formed early for its first year. The club’s main object was to serve the school and community and to make good citizens of its members. The most memorable projects of the club this year were the semi-formal Christmas Dance and the WKEY music station in the cafeteria each morning. Other services perform- ed were the canned food drive, ground maintenance, and the parking of cars. 186 wo WSL =| sh may famb as 1. Ve First row: Sally Winne, Treas.; Elaine Vescovi, Corresp.

The Keyette Club of Thomas Jeffer- son High School was organized in Sep- tember. It began with twelve girls and later completed its membership of twenty-five. The club, in keeping with its motto, ‘We Serve,’’ planned many worthwhile activities. Funds from their Shoeshine-Day project were given to Christmas charity and the school light drive. In spring a Peace Corps Week was held in order to help build a school overseas. With these successes during the first school year at Thomas Jeffer- son, the Keyettes plan to live up to their motto in the future, too. ra Hard way to make a living, isn’t it?

Other activities of the year included a visit to the French Embassy and a restaurant, and a look at the French section of the Art Gallery and some movies. All in all, members of the club feel that they have enjoyed a very rewarding year because of their increased knowledge of French culture. a “i! i te esa eR a ees First row: Rebecca Jones; Michael Moore, Co-Chair.; John Miller, Co-Chair.; Diane Johnson.

Hand in hand with this main purpose are two minor but equally im- portant intentions: to learn both sides of international questions and increase knowledge of the United States’ mission in world affairs. Through field trips and guest speakers, the members accomplished all three of these purposes and also learned the history of Northern Virginia. Through bi-weekly meetings which included films, lectures, folk-singing, and discussions on the language itself German Club members worked to- gether to increase their knowledge of German culture. The students went caroling at Christmas, singing in Ger- man as well as in English. A dinner at a German restaurant, a flower sale, and a picnic were some of the other enterprises in which members parti- cipated.

A trip to the United Nations in the first part of the month of December was one of the first projects for students in the International Club. Despite being ma- rooned on the New Jersey Turnpike and stalled on the Staten Island Ferry, everyone managed to have a good time. However, the highlight of the year was finally rais- ing enough money for an exchange student sponsored by the American Field Service for the school year ‘65- DEBATE TEAM The Jefferson High School Debate Team sprang into being early this year with a hand- ful of students and a sponsor, Mr. Gardner. For several months Captain Dixie Howell, win- ner of several college debates and numerous awards, coached and rehearsed debating tech- niques with the team. They developed such skills as organization, logical argument, and presentation of facts to prove a point. By Feb- ruary they were finally ready for the inter- scholastic debates. Jefferson, being in the Sou- thern Division of the Virginia League, con- ducted debates against Annandale, Woodson, Lee, Falls Church, and others. As Sue Chris- tianson, Co-captain of the team, said, “It will be hard debating all our old friends.’’ That it was, but not so hard that the Colonials couldn’t win. Some activities of the team were Jeffer- son’s first bakesale, and trips to Charlottes- ville and George Washington University. 190 ‘66. The members sponsored bake sales and an Inter- national Week in order to gather the $700.00 needed. Other major activities of the club included: a pro- gram on the importance of attaining peace in the world through an understanding of the social, economical, and political status of all the countries in the world today; and the sponsoring of students for the United Nations Contest and the O.A.S. Contest. First row: Harry Howell, Capt.; Sue Christianson, Co-Capt.; Nancy Bullard, Sec.; Kevin Burke, Treas.; Mr. Gardner, Sponsor. Second row: Stephen Harvith, John Patterson, Alan Singer.

The club was a member of the National Future Nurses Clubs of America and was a Red Cross Chapter. Even before officers were elected, the mem- bers had attended a lecture, a tour, and a tea at the Washington Center School of Nursing. Later on, at Christmas, the students sang carols at the Methodist Hermitage. Another project the club participated in was the mak- ing and filling of Easter baskets. The regular programs of the club consisted of films, discussions, and lectures, through which future medical vocations were explored and studied. PIMA First row: Sandra Elliot, Anita Hendon.

The world of test tubes, chemicals and research was opened to those students of Jefferson who were mem- bers of the Science Club. They had a well-planned program of guided-re- search, field trips, movies, and lectures and demonstrations given by visiting scientists. These scientifically-inclined students were provided with the op- portunity to pursue their own fields of interest in depth with the time, space and equipment available to the Science Department. ws a | Mm | At last!

PRESS CLUB The Press Club’s purpose is to keep the community in- formed of Jefferson’s activities and to develop and maintain good relations between the school and the community. The bi-weekly meetings feature briefings on upcoming activities so that news of school events may be released to local newspapers and radio stations. The membership is limited to Journalism students and newspaper staff members. The purpose of the Art Guild is to give advanced instruction and opportunity in art beyond the class- room to students who prove to be the most interested, productive, and capable. The members of the Guild were hand-chosen by co-sponsors, Miss Davis and Miss Earman. The select group enjoyed the chance to work in advanced media and to participate in student discussions and debates. The Guild formed a nucleus of students who could lead in developing interest in art. They helped with exhibits, displays, and all other school projects in- volving a knowledge of art.

JEFFERSON JOTTINGS STAFF As Mrs. Wood, the sponsor put it, ‘Jefferson Jot- tings has one primary aim: to encourage student thought and expression through art and literature.” In this first year of the Jefferson Jottings, we have proved that we are a school peopled by creative individuals. We have filled two editions with attractive art and fine literature, and thus provided a school- wide showcase of talent. The magazine, sold independently of the yearbook and newspaper, was financed through the popular morning doughnut sales. As a result, we have been able to enjoy a little publication of large quality. Sure, I'll eat another doughnut for the Jefferson Jottings! 194 Jim Maness, Vice-Pres.; Ron Rector, Sgt.-at-Arms; Rich Offutt, Pres.; Obie Bucher, Treas. ap (CMe Remember seeing all those students running helter-skelter on Wednesday afternoons? Likely as not they were members of the Pep Club putting up posters, decorating a bulletin board, and making locker placards for the team members. Among many other things they’ve decorated the goal posts during football season, and the gym during the basketball season; sold tickets for games; sold “Beat tags;’’ and they sponsored a Victory Dance. Their purpose was to promote school spirit at all times, and they’ve done an excellent job. LD VARSITY CLUB Varsity athletes of every sport comprise the Varsity Club.

Who is devoted to stimulating interest in drama- tics, appreciating theatrical performances, learning and practicing the skills and techniques of the theatre? No one else but a Spotlighter! A constitution, officers, programs and committees were first concerns of Spotlighters involved in the fall flurry of activity. A successful Scrounge Week, during which students carted used articles to school or had them picked up by the Spotlighters to be delivered to the once-empty stage and dressing rooms, came in a close second. No sooner were they filled than— a pro- duction was on its way—and a student-directed produc- 196 (A 7-7 Se Qa oe Ore tion at that! Badlands Ballyhoo was such a hit at the school assembly, that it was included in the drama class program dubbed the Golden Ages. Although ninety students had taken part in the fall productions, wheels still rolled as December became tryout time for an English comedy, Dear Delinquent. Spotlighters were numbered among those receiving posi- tions in that cast and crew. Only one month later, Spotlighters were putting the finishing touches on the Virginia High School League One-Act Tournament Play, Wuthering Heights. June meant evaluation of the year’s successful activities, planning for the year to come, and the chartering of Jeffer- son’s chapter of the National Thespian Society. Goals were accomplished for the Spot- lighters as they saw their out- standing numbers inducted into the society and realized that they all had had the op- portunity to participate and learn about the wonderful and exciting world of the theatre.

The purpose of the Latin Club is to promote an in- terest in Latin and the classics. The government of the club is based on that of Rome at the time of the Republic; therefore the officers are the consuls, tri- bunes, a quaestor, and a censor. The activities planned for this year included a Latin Banquet, films on Rome and Pompeii, partici- pation in a Language Week, and a presentation of in- formation programs on Roman life and customs. pee sipeg pease ee thet te Sa ener ee ee First row: Miss Deal, Sponsor; Anita Malcolm, Pres.; Linda Wine, Sec.-Treas.; Barbara Ruffing, Vice-Pres.

Students interested in the teaching profession or- ganized and participated in FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA. They extended their own interests and abilities in the teaching field. Some programs included guest speakers and several excellent movies. To gain practical experience they as- sisted teachers by checking papers, putting up bulletin 127 boards, and doing various other helpful jobs. The Future Teachers also enjoyed a field trip to George Mason College in Fairfax. Their numerous activities developed understanding and appreciation of what the teaching profession in- volves.

Eagerness ... plans . . . typing, retyping . . cropping, identifying ... DEADLINES... these were the essentials of the Jeffersonian. Because the staff wasn’t chosen until after the beginning of the school year, they quickly had to plan the events of the year. After selling ads, and trying to convince everyone that a yearbook was an absolute necessity, came the actual work on the book itself. With the frantic effort of the art, copy, layout, business staffs and photographers our first deadline was met by burning midnight oil on November 20th. But this was only the be- ginning! After coping with layout problems, copy, identifications, art, and class lists, the Jeffersonian was completed. This is our tribute to Thomas Jefferson. 199 SAS Rig es i RACE at ecnsiermmmvimaonnieied shy Hie ROIS sane First row: Lee Breakiron, Pres.; Bob Bayer, Vice-Pres.; Jill Meyer, Sec.; Billy Hall, Treas.

The world of chess was revealed to the interested students who joined the Chess Club. Before long they learned the many ins-and-outs of the complicated game. After playing a round-robin, the Chess Club members designated a varsity team. The team failed to defeat the more experienced players of Lee and Washington Lee, but was victorious over St. Stevens. Every first board was won, including the one against last year’s Metropolitan Area Champions. With the help of the more experienced players, every other member soon commanded an understanding of the fascinating game of chess.

The club was formed into a league containing ten teams which perform skills one afternoon each week at a local bowling lane. At the end of the season trophies were awarded to the best team, to the highest scoring in- dividual, and to the student showing the most improve- ment. 200 ELECTRONICS CLUB In an attempt to promote interest in the field of electronics, to explore this field more deeply, and to assist our school in any manner feasible, an Electronics Club was established here at Jefferson. This organization, under Mr. Sisley’s supervision, has one business meeting per month. The other weekly sessions involve work times, member demon- strations, guest speakers, and occa- sional field trips. SPANISH CLUB First row: Bill Parnell, Larry Houston.

The purpose of the club was to promote under- standing and interest in the language and customs of our Latin American neighbors. Under the leadership of the president, Nancy Fairbrother, the other of- ficers, and the sponsor, Miss Herrell, the club completed a successful year. One of the highlights was a field trip to the Pan-American Building, the Voice of America, and an embassy. Spanish movies, guest speakers, and trips to a Spanish restaurant and a church were also incluuded on the agenda.

The Civitan Club is an international service organization dedicated to the welfare of the community and the building of good citizenship. The Civitans first undertook selling victory stickers during the football season to promote school spirit. The main project of the year was raising money for plexig lass backboards for the gymnasium. In January the club sponsored a ‘Surf Dance,”” which was one of the most successful events of the year. The profits from this dance brought more than half the money needed to purchase the backboards. The hard work of Mr. Visnich, Mr. Roberts, and the club officers has made the Civitan Club one of the most successful at Jefferson. With the cooperation of the student body, the Civitans provided an excellent example of citizenship and organization for others to follow. Oh, no! Not that Reidelbach snow-shoveling proposal again! 202 COLONIAL CORP S The Colonial Corps has built its founda- tions on the solid rock of service to the school. Organized through the requests of the student body, its basic purpose is to aid the faculty and the ad- ministration in keeping good order at athletic events, and in the halls and cafeteria. After a rewarding year of faithful service, they anticipate tackling the job again next year. First row: Mr. Christie, Spon.; Irv Sanborn, Pres.; Bill Paule, Vice-Pres.; Eric Plough, Sec.- Treas.

( ——-members of the Band Council) ‘I'll never get my letter!’ band members moaned as they saw the tests and other required qualifications. Despite this, members of the Symphonic Band worked hard to become perfectionists in their music. The Symphonic Band is composed of sixty students who are ad- vanced on their various: instruments. During the football season, the band members donned colorful marching uniforms and provided half-time entertainment. They als o played at several public concerts, at the annual Band Festival, and at special assemblies for the students. Besides a number of smaller ensembles within the band, there is the Stage Band, which is an extra-curricular activity designed to provide a special training in the jazz and orchestra style of playing. The result of hard work is an extremely fine band for Jefferson’s first year. CONCERT BAND Receiving the necessary in- struction for music technique was the main function for stu- dents in the Concert Band. Much of their time was spent j on the fundamentals of music and the interpretation and ac- curate rendition of various pieces. The Concert Band, sometimes with the Symphonic Band, performed in public con- certs on several occasions dur- ing the year.

The staff who put together this first Jeffersonian have worked hard to make it a good one. But their efforts alone could never have produced a yearbook worthy of the name. The custodians; the cafeteria staff; the nurse; the team coaches; the classroom teachers; the band and choral directors; the faculty sponsors; virtually all the students; the secretaries; the librarians; the guidance counselors — just about everyone connected with this school — has given something, more often a great gift than a small one. All this generosity has been stimulated by an understanding and loyal principal and his staff. We are especially indebted to Mr. Richard Sakamoto for numerous fine photographs made by him and donated for use in the Jeffersonian. This is our grateful salute to all these kind people, and it includes a very special curtsy for our Homeroom Teachers. 239 FOR THE RECORD- As late as the spring of 1965, our football field remained as shown in the photo above. But our P.T.A. had swung into action, and its program, known as the Colonial Lamplighters’ fund-raising campaign, was well along toward the $24,000 goal to provide lights for the football field, band uniforms, and other urgently needed items Future Jetterson students will do well to remember this remarkable response on the part of the school’s parents and teachers, when the need was greatest.
