HORN Principal Soon after this school year be¬ gan, Mr. Horn was granted a leave of absence to continue his graduate work at Duke Univer¬ sity. After Christmas, he returned as Dr. Horn, but to the regret of all those in the school he resigned shortly afterward to return to a permanent position at Duke. We shall always remember him as a man who had the most desirable quality—that of being an efficient principal and an understanding friend. MR. W. J. Di LONG Principal Mr. DeLong, as assistant, car¬ ried on the duties of principal during Dr. Horn’s absence, and during that time made himself well-1 inown to all of us. Upon Dr. Horn’s resignation, Mr. De- Long assumed the full duties as principal of Marion High School. THE MRS. CORNELIA ANDERSON, Ph. B., teaches Latin. MRS. ROBERT ANDERSON, B.

Leola Culbert leaves the paper in her locker to Mr. Wolfe with the hope that it won’t take more than all summer to burn it. 9.

Io the faculty, we wish to express our deepest and most sincere thanks for a thankless and some¬ times misunderstood task. 4. To the Juniors, we leave the front seats in the auditorium, the back seats in class, and the buoyant feeling of being SENIORS. And to all the classes, we extend the hope you have the fun we had. 5. And lastly, after five years of w ' ork and play, we leave to our school halls filled with shadows of dis¬ appointments that we have shared and with echoes of laughter from days we’ve known and loved.

When you see a student unduly disturbed about a B” on his report card, he is likely to be a Beta member. Character, Achievement, Leadership” is the motto of this group, and their many activities are planned to promote these ideals.

Only those on the inside know all the agonies of late copy, snow on the day last minute group pictures have to be made, no available typewriters when copy has to meet the deadline, or pictures lost after hours of struggle. There are plenty of headaches and problems for the staff but everyone takes it with a smile. We’ve deeply en¬ joyed putting this book together and we hope our readers will find in it memories that will be a source of pleasure in later years.

With the Marion eleven on the four- yard line at the half and on the two at the end of the game the team came home with the small compen¬ sation of having dominated the play throughout the entire game. September 21 found the Big Reds back on their toes, however, as they completely bowled over Rich Valley 3 2-0 m a thrilling home game. The following Saturday Marion settled an old score by literally beating the ears oft the Wytheville Maroons 3 5-0 to the delight of the Marion fans who really went wild on the bleachers. Although the Green Wave from Narrows held the Hurricane in the first quarter, it didn’t take the team long to start rolling and they didn’t stop until they rolled right over Narrows 34-0. It looked as though our homecoming spirits were going to be slightly dampened as we took on the Galax eleven on a muddy field October 12. However, Dick Spider Legs” Peery saved the day with a thrilling 49-yard touchdown scamper which won Marion the game 7-0. On October 19 the Hurricane traveled to Roanoke to proudly bow to the strong William Fleming Colonels 3 9-0. Marion fans were proud of their team which never gave up. The Marion eleven practically swam their way to a 7-0 victory in what was an ocean of mud under lights at Pulaski on the following twenty-fifth of October. The Hurricane closed our last home game by taking the aerial route to a 19-0 victory over a power- r ful William King eleven on the second of November. This left our home goal line uncrossed for the entire season. In a fight for the District 7 championship the Hurricane shook the salt out of the Saltville Shakers 40 times as Marion pranced to her closing victory. BOYS ' BASKETBALL PLAYERS’ NAMES m. h. ; j.

On September 6, that dreaded event of the opening of school came. Soon things were well underway with a full schedule of teachers. It appeared a little too full for most of us students. Then, you know, came that first luckless football game from which no one has yet quite recovered. Grundy beat the big Reds” 6-0! Our brilliant headman, Mr. Florn, announced that he was going to rush up to Duke University and pick up a few more brains, so Mr. DeLong took over as our acting principal . . . quite well, don’t you think? We really won’t forget that wonderful homecoming on October 11 and 12 either, will we? The first day—a bonfire, snakedance, midnight amateur show and movie. The last day—that drenching homecoming game with Galax in which Spiderlegs” Peery made the sole touchdown of the game. Nor could we forget the scare Red” Jones gave us when he was knocked out by a kick in the mouth. Then that night we had a most successful dance, and Marjorie Hall was crowned our Home¬ coming Queen. And wasn’t the operetta that Mr. Muench directed, done profes¬ sionally? Sweethearts Revue”, that is. And how about those wonderful living pictures? Something new at M. H. S.; they were very good resemblances of the originals. Some play those Juniors put on ’long about November 22 and 23. Then remember how near we all came to dying of boredom be¬ tween the end of football season and the beginning of basketball season? But on December 6, basketball did get under way. hen we thought we wouldn’t last another minute, they finally let us out for Christmas holidays. This was December 20. It was all we could do to make it back by January 2. Weren’t we pleased to have Mr. Horn back, too, and with his added knowledge, he was now Dr. Horn. On Jan uary 22 we began those long-awaited exams. In the midst of them we were relieved by a play presented by Miss Mary Payne Copenhaver’s dramatics class. - - Remember? One day we could never forget was the day Dr. Horn had us all long-faced and crying. It was when he announced to us in assembly that he was leaving good ole M. H. S. to return to Duke for a permanent position there. We had all learned to know Mr. DeLong during Mr. H orn’s absence, so things continued to move smoothly. What fun the well-planned Valentine’s Dance was! Nancy Walker and Johnny Atkins were fittingly crowned our King and Queen of Hearts. Ah! the blessed snow! We got out on February 20 because of the deep snow. The Friday and Saturday while school was dismissed we were host to the district basketball tournament. It added even more thrill for us since we played all the way through the semi-finals. Our football rival, Tazewell, came out the victor for District 7. Although we all enjoyed our vacation, most of us were happy to return to classes on March 4. On March 5 our high school had four one-act plays in the audi¬ torium, one of which (Remember the Happy Journey”?) was selected to enter the district contest. This district contest was also held in our auditorium on March 15 with Wytheville High being the winner, and Marion High coming in as a close second. March 31 to April 4 was set aside at Marion High as religious em¬ phasis week. The second of the operettas, H.M.S. Pinafore”, proved to be even better than the first. On April 12, we were host to the district literary contest which in¬ cluded debating, prose and poetry reading, public speaking and spelling and in which Marion High emerged as winner in all but two divisions of the contest. On April 15, we were again host when the district S.C.A. was held at our school. Events of the future as we go to press are the Senior Play, baseball season, the Junior-Senior Shindig”, and all the commencement events. In spite of everything, don’t you expect we ll remember these wonderful times at M. H. S. until our dying day?
