Knapp High School. The road was often rough; we could always find some obstacle attempting to hold us back. But, fortunately every freshman possesses one quality lacking in others, determination! Determination is at our side. The road may often seem tough, but we’ll make it; to become the seniors of’73. 14 Tommy Atherton Cathy Austin Curtis Banks Mike Barnard Vanessa Barnard Barbara Barrow Dorothy Baum Orville Berry Edwin Blanchard Roger Broome Steve Broome Darryl Brown Stanley Bunch 1’reda Campbell Montell Cartwright Michael Chatman Eunice Cherry Alvin Clark blank Coppersmith Ricky Coppock Warren Corbell Mike Cox Ricky Denby Helen Dilliard Glen Dixon Julian Dowdy Rickie Dowdy Charles Dudley Gwendolyn Dunston Teresa Dunston 15 Thurmond Dunston Phyllis Etheridge Julian Evans Aubrey Everett Naomi Ferebee Yvonne Ferebee Tommy Forbes Dorothy Freeman Craig Fulcher Carrie Gallop Billy Garrenton Matthew Garris Frances Godfrey Charles Grandy Tyronne Greene James Gregory Edward Griffin Ray Griggs Faye Harper Kaye Harper John Harris Marion Harris Mike Harris Alisa Hubbard Kathy Hutchinson Joseph Johnson Clara Jones Clinton Jones Delois Jones Raymond Jones Troy Jones Vernon Jones Rodney Kight Mike Knightlinger Sherryl Kunze 16 Cindy Lane Mildred Lee Larry Lewis Sandi Lilley Brenda Lindsey Elvin Lindsey Patricia Lowe La Ree Lynn Carson Matthews Carl Lee Meads Jackie Meekins Hawaii Mercer Sandra Mercer Darrell Merrell Teresa Micklewright Forrest Midgette Judy Miller Sharon Miller Nancy Morse Willie Moye Ricky Murden Eddie Newman Reginald Nixon Jerry Old Calvin Outlaw Gretchen Outlaw Patricia Outlaw Diane Owens Sharon Parker Charlie Patterson Charles Payne Hazel Pinner Ronald Powell Robyn Poyner Ryland Poyner 17 Dale Prescott William Price Karen Quidley Mark Raisor Danny Riddick Judy Ringer Ronnie Rose Shelia Rose Alice Saunders Daniel Saunders Ida Saunders Kent Sawyer Linda Sawyer Lynn Sawyer Jim Scott Darlene S ears Brenda Seymore Juanita Seymore Mavis Simmons Wesley Simmons Brenda Simpson George Spellman Letitia Spellman Clara Stone 1 18 James Suich Patricia Swain Glenna Tate Bonnie Taylor Sidney Tolbert Carolyn Twiford Simone Vaughn Susan Vance Debbie Waterman Lillie White Marilyn White Oscar White Paul White Rosa White Sharon White Virginia White David Whitehurst Larry Williams Reginald Williams Grady Wilson Betty Woodley Tommy Wright Earl Jones Rosa Sampson Phillip Sawyer Danish Williams Frank Woodley 19 President-Sharon Banks Vice President-Roger Williams Treasurer-Debra Ann Sanderlin Secretary-Karla Hampton Reporter-Wally Davis Sergeant-at-Arms James Sampson Jay Dowdy A sophomore is an in-between; in between start and finish, discovery and graduation, childhood and adulthood. He must think with only his freshman experience, test with his ten years of knowledge, achieve with his inborn judgment. But along with all of this, he can laugh, learn, and live with everyone around him. Through this year, we have all managed to survive, and we have found a love for each other, a special closeness; and a stronger love for our school. Now, in our full flight of youth, we, the sophomores of Joseph P. Knapp High School, can proudly think of our past, and hopefully dream of our future. 20 Danny Adams Stephanie Ames Idella Askew Wanda Austin Catherine Bailey Dorothy Banks Hattie Banks Sharon Banks Rondell Barrow William Baum Sharon Beasley Rita Bell Annette Berry George Brickhouse Clinton Brooks Bobby Brown Gary Brown Becky Caroon Michelle Caroon Becky Cason Dorothy Cason Lavern Chatman 21 Patricia Collins Gary Corbell James Davis Wally Davis Brenda Denby Donnie Dowdy James Dowdy Shelly Dowdy Marvin Doxey Patricia Doxey Jack Edge Darlene Etheridge Marvin Etheridge William Etheridge Buddy Evans Charles Ferebee Larry Ferebee Wanda Ferebee Diane Forbes Chris Gallop Ralph Gallop Samuel Gallop 22 Arlene Grandy Colon Grandy Pam Griggs Jack Guard Karla Hampton Gloria Harris Wanda Hassell Sherry Hines Jerry Hocutt Robert Holt Sylvia Hubbard Joyce Jordan Jerald Kight James Lassiter Patricia Lewark Melvin Lewis Judy Lindsey Wayne Lindsey Dorothy McClease Serena Mackey Shelia McPherson Billy Manning 23 Mamie Mason Jeanne Meekins Anna Mercer Ruby Mercer Wanda Midgette Connie Miller Louise Moore Bonnie Needham Janet Outlaw Donald Ray Owens Glenda Owens Jesse Owens Miranda Owens Robin Owens Carlton Ray Patterson Mack Pierce Wayne Pierce George Powell Weldon Powell Cathy Poyner Ann Privott Steve Raisor Thurman Roberts James Sampson CAMERA SHY: Myra Armstrong, Butch Caroon, Willie Dunston, James Lupton, James McNeil, and Harvey Sawyer. „.

A Junior is an obnoxious person according to one teacher. If you want a real definition, just ask a Junior. He’ll tell you: A Junior is a hard working, studious person; a Junior is one who has earned the title, “Upper Classman,” at last! A Junior is one who is waiting impatiently for his ring: A Junior is a salesman who goes out in strife to knock on doors and greet the neighbors with, “You know you need more than one magazine subscription this year! We just have to beat last year’s class!” While the thoughts of prom expenses swirl in his head and give those tired feet reason to knock on one more door. A Junior is a prom planner- what date is best? When to start?—and How, oh ho.w, do you get committees to WORK. See you silly, silly Sophomores and you green, green Freshmen what you have to look forward to when you are the jolly, jolly Juniors! We know what you faced last year Seniors believe us! 26 Michael Austin Vance Aydlett Tony Ballance Georgia Barnard Diane Barrow Mitchell Bateman Richard Beasley Patricia Berry George Bogues Melissa Brinson Elton Brown Jerry Brown Levie Bunch Lee Byrum Gary Cartwright 27 Thurman Cartwright Hallet Chatman Charles Cherry Barbara Corbeil Clarence Doughtie Elaine Dozier Stanley Elliot Margarette Etheridge Bernard Evans Rena Evans Steve Evans Carnello Ferebee Nathan Ferebee Ronald Freeman Bertie Gallop 28 Ethel Gallop Mary Grandy Carlton Gregory Robert Gregory Joseph Hampton Jocelyn Harper Walter Hedgebeth Renee Howard William Jones James Hassel Randy Kunze Gene Langley Lois Leigh Raymond Lewis William McClease Jimmie McPherson 29 Julia Mackey Andrew Mercer Wesley Mercer Danny Merrell Allan Miller Norman Osborn Evelyn Rollason Barbara Saunders Jacqueline Saunders 30 Judy Tarkenton Tony Taylor Janet Vaughan m 31 Kenneth Walston Gayle Welch Cinda White Connie White Linda Williams Claywood Wilson Janice Winslow CAMERA SHY: Cindy Ames, lyn Dunston, Gage Williams, Wil¬ liam Woodley.

They can enter the world of business with pride because this year we can supply each student with the courses he needs from basic business to applied mathematics. This depart¬ ment comes alive for students in the monthly publication of the Currit- uckian. This paper shows the opin¬ ions and activities of the students here at J. P. Knapp High School. The Newspaper staff deserves much credit for all the hard work they do. Mrs. Shelvey S. Crump teaches Busi¬ ness Math, Office Practice, and Book¬ keeping. She has received her B.S. after attending Elon College, College of the Albemarle, and Old Dominion College. She is currently working on a Master’s Degree from A.S.U. Mrs. Crump serves as the sponsor for the Currituckian. 57 Members of the newspaper staff like Robin Porter, Bonnie Lindsey, and Katherine Ann Barco sell the Currituckian to students during the lunch periods. For one thin dime a copy of the Currituckian can be pur¬ chased. Currituckian Wins Second Place The following editorial appeared in the Currituckian at Christmas and shows the capabilities of our stu¬ dents. EDITORIAL This Christmas, as for many Christmases before, a truce will be called to halt the war in Vietnam for 24 hours. This truce will symbolize peace and goodwill among men. The fighting will cease, and the war will halt for one short day. War symbolizes hate and a struggle for power. Why can’t there be peace and goodwill forever? Everyone has their own solution, but so far no one has been able to come up with a successful answer. Until man learns to live in harmony with his neighbor and in his surroundings, there will always be war. Boys are drafted; men are killed; and heroes are sent home. War is America’s num¬ ber one killer. Because of greed, hate, or force, we are killing man — ourselves. Yet we must; our desire to live drives us to protect ourselves. The truce that will be call ed may not accomplish much toward a full-scale halt, but it proves that we are working toward a better understanding among mankind. Robin Porter Mrs. Dorothy M. Robinson teaches Typing I and II and she is the addition to our Business Department. She attended North Carolina Central University where she received her B.S. degree.

There is also one language laboratory used for our foreign language department. One classroom has been installed for the pressing need of space. With our new laboratories we can learn about science by self exper¬ ience and use of scientific equip¬ ment. The officers of the Science Club are Pres. - Renee Howie . V.-Pres. - Brenda Denby.

The Student Council is the organiza¬ tion responsible for student government by providing a link between the adminis¬ tration and the students. The SCA members monitor the lunch lines and are responsible for conducting assemblies. Each year, they are responsible for direct¬ ing Sadie Hawkins Day in which SCA officers are elected for the following year. Sadie Hawkins Day proved to be a big success last year when it was changed into an all day affair. That morning the student body listened to campaign man¬ agers and candidates deliver speeches about their capabilities and plans that would make Knapp High School grow and be great. After the speeches, a slave auction was held so that the Student Council could make money for the fol¬ lowing year. The girls bid on their favor¬ ite guy and the hottest bidding occurred when Evelyn Rollason and Mrs. Morris both wanted Bill Smith. On the outside of the gym, there were piggyback races, potato sack races, and bashing the old car. Many students let their emotions be released by hitting the teacher’s name and many teachers let their emotions fly by simply just hitting the car. During lunch time, the students voted for their favorite candidate. During the afternoon, there was a band located in the gym for the enjoyment of the students. The high point of the afternoon occurred when there were two student vs. faculty base¬ ball games. A dance was held and the officers for next year’s Student Council were announced. This proved to be the Student Council’s most successful event. Last year, the student body elected these people as officers, Wayne Williams - President, Jimmie McPherson Vice- President, Sherelene Rollason - Secre¬ tary, Becky Walker - Treasurer. Each homeroom elects a member of the class to serve as a spokesman. This year they are Mrs. Crump - Sara Banks, Mrs. Robinson - Peggy Griggs, Mrs. Spruill Charlotte Wade, Mrs. Burke - B. U. Evans, Mrs. Cartwright - Carlton Gregory, Mr. Dozier - Evelyn Rollason, Miss Blythe - Bobby Brown, Mrs. Morris Wally Davis, Mrs. Poole - Wanda Midgette, Mr. Short - Cathy Poy- ner, Mr. Smith - John White, Mr. Casey Simone Vaughan, Mrs. Eatrnon Phyllis Etheridge, Mr. Forehand Sandra Mercer, Mrs. Thornton - Robyn Poyner, Mrs. Sawyer - Tommy Wright- 65 What is a Knapp student? Knapp students are individuals - indi¬ viduals learning to make their way in the world, studying to educate themselves, expressing themselves through organizations, and trying to understand themselves and oth¬ ers. Their personalities and interests vary from working to become a starting basketball player to study¬ ing diligently for straight A ' s. What¬ ever their interest, students are bound together by activity and en¬ vironment. thoughtfulness of others if he is to suc¬ ceed. The school plays a great role in their lives, and they see into each others minds and personalities. They realize their differences, but they still find common interests. Here, they learn to live with each other and to take and give of themselves and others. A Knapp stu¬ dent is an American, a North Carolinian and a Currituckian. He is a model citizen of the future. He works hard to improve his environment and to provide for his future. During his high school years, the stu¬ dent leaves his childlike appearance, and he grows into an adult. Slowly, he real¬ izes his education is not as complete as he thought it was. As the school year passes, the student often finds something lacking in his school life. This usually leads to a desire to improve himself academically and athletically. The stu¬ dent learns to give in on certain issues, but he also learns to stand up for the things that he really believes in. He is required to have consideration and I t m 66 What is a Knapp Teacher? It is the person who must get up at dawn, come to school, and sit in a classroom all day, listening to the never ceasing chattering of Knapp students. They must get up for a total of 180 days each year and leave their warm and comfortable homes to venture into the cold depressing world of Knapp. A Knapp teacher is not given the full credit that he deserves. There should be some kind of honor for their bravery and gallantry shown each day. Some of the teachers feel that if they just can give one student a chance to prove himself worthy of a good educa¬ tion, then their job is well worth the effort. How many people can have a profession as rewarding as a teacher’s? They try so hard to give the students a chance to prove themselves. The teachers of Knapp want to give the students just as much an opportunity to learn as a teacher in a larger school would give. They want to try and impress upon the students the importance of an education. The teachers win regard of students by serving as sponsors for clubs, atten¬ ding ball games and proms, and by simply aiding students in their quest for knowledge and understanding. Knapp may not be equipped with the newest and finest equipment and facil¬ ities, but they are equipped with the finest teachers and administrators. 67 68 Sports The agonies and ecstacies of competition . . .

The ideas of the squad were enriched by three cheerleaders who attended National Cheerleading Camp during the summer. When school started the cheerleaders were ready to work hard the whole year through. Camp and practice took much of the girls’ time during July and August. September brought the first football game. The cheer¬ leaders spent many hours in October preparing for Home¬ coming. November provided a break between football season and more practice. Basketball games began in December, and new uni¬ forms came in January. February included the basketball tourna¬ ment. March brought tryouts for next year’s squad, and the cheer¬ leaders were left with feelings of accomplishment for a season of good work. 70 Miss Barbara Blythe Sponsor Cheerleaders Work To Promote Student Spirit The cheerleading squad extends its welcome to visiting Blue Devils.

Our offensive strength is shown by the 210 points we scored this season. This gave us a 21 point per game average. However, our defense had 207 points scored against them. If we can strengthen our defense, then we should have a good team in the 1970 season. We will have 20 lettermen returning, and this is the most we have had since I have been here.

This year there were many new players who joined the only return¬ ing players, Hallet Chatman, Larry Seymore, and Weldon Powell. Before the Christmas holidays, we had tough games against some mighty good teams. Several games H. Chatman rushes to get the tap from G. Mercer. were lost by very close scores. After the holidays, we began looking like a real team and started winning our games. So far this season, we hold a record over 5-4. With only three games left, it seems we will be a contender for the Conference Championship. Coach Forehand Varsity Basketball players are: W. Powell, C. Cherry, T. Taylor, C. Ferebee, G. Mercer, L.

These girls fought hard and never lacked for hustle. We had a disappointing won-lost record, but are looking for¬ ward to improving this in the 1970- 71 season. The reason for our opti¬ mism is that we will have all our team returning for next season, ex¬ cept for two. These two will be greatly missed, however, as they were our co-captains Shirley Baker, and June Dunton. Coa.c A Wanda Midgette, Manager Big Efforts As They Begin Battling Rivals j?

We lost to Manteo and Camden. We lost 3 good play¬ ers, one “dead-eye” outfielder, one “no-hit” pitcher, and one .595 bat¬ ting first baseman. This year we hope for a better season since many of the former players will be return¬ ing and some leading rookies should star. We hope we can improve the baseball structure at J.P. Knapp High School and our attitude, con¬ duct, an d sportsmanship will be one that is becoming of a Knapp Knight.

Since there is no Junior Varsity football team, the girls spend their time learning cheers, selling pro¬ grams and penants at football games, and supporting the Varsity Squad. This year the Junior Varsity cheerleaders gave the Varsity a break during halftime at the football games.
