Marion High School - Hurricane Yearbook (Marion, VA)

Text from Pages 1 - 200 of the 1964 volume:

Route ’64 “If there is any motion in society, the road, ivhich is the symbol of motion, lvill indicate the fact.” Come along with us, the HURRICANE staff of 1964, as we journey along ROUTE 64. Through what cities does it pass; to what vast prairies, towering mountains, raging rivers, and green valleys does it point? None! We are certain ROUTE 64 will prove to be the most interesting highway over which you have traveled, as it wends its way through the past year at M arion Senior High School; the work and play, the laughter and tears. You need no luggage, no automobile to travel our road; you only need to turn the pages of our yearbook. “Bon Voyage!” Editor Jane 1‘uttcr Business Manager Linda Haulsee The Road Map Route 64. 2 The Road Map. 3 Honored Passenger.. 6 Administration . 7 S.C.A.

Therefore we would like to dedicate this year ' s HURRICANE to a person who has unselfishly given time and talent to many varied activities of Marion Senior High School; who has been kind and understanding at all times; who has shared our problems and our triumphs; who has inspired us to Christian ideals ami spurred us to greater achievements; and who is our friend, teacher, and advisor: Mrs. Lillie P. Echols. Page 6 Highway Patrol Howard W. Williams B. A. Milligan College M. S. University of Tennessee Principal, Marion Sr. High School J. Leonard Mauck B. S. Emory Henry College M. S.

Page 36 BACKWARD GLANCE August 26, 1963, we entered the doors of Marion Senior High School with great anticipation of the year ahead. We knew it would lie a year, not only of hard work and studying, hut also a year of fun. Our football team, much to our delight, won its first game over the Chilhowie Warriors with a score ol 20- 13. They were beginning a winning season, and we were behind them all the way. On September 21 the SCA sponsored a beauty pageant, the first of its kind at our school, f.arol Collins was chosen Miss Marion Senior High School and went on to be crowned queen of the Chilhowie Apple Festi¬ val. Two other Marion girls. Ann Freeman and Mary Mauek, were among the five finalists in the Apple I estival. Our thoughts turned to the future when we attended College Career Night on September 25. Representa¬ tives of schools and businesses of the area were present. 1 his service was beneficial to our students by giving them the opportunity of professional guidance and advice. September 27 was a day of great excitement for the Seniors, for on that day the long-awaited class rings arrived. Filled with pride, the Seniors made sure that everyone noticed their newest possessions. Our exciting Homecoming weekend began on October 24 with the Variety Show, “Hurricane Hootanan- ny,” followed by a bonfire and pep rally. On the following night the Scarlet Hurricane swept in a victory of 21- 12 over the Abingdon Falcons. During half-time, Linda Haulsee, attended by Carol Collins, Linda Mai¬ den. Nena Lemmon, and Judy Warren, was crowned Homecoming queen for 1963. 1 he semi-formal Home¬ coming dance was held on Saturday night. The queen and her court were presented during intermission. Marion closed its football season with a victory over Saltville 18-6. The boys closed with a record of 5-4-1, a winning season of whch we were all very proud. Girls’ basketball started on November 5. They had an undefeated season and went on to become cham¬ pions in the Smyth County Tournament. On November 11 the hoys’ Scarlet Hurricane basketball team opened the 1963-64 season. Despite their lack of height and experience, they emerged with a record of 8 wins and 11 defeats. The Junior Play, “You’re Only Young Once,” was presented before a large audience on December 6. Lead¬ ing the outstanding cast were J. S. Staley, Gary Phillips. Ida Groseelose, and Mike Robinson. The next event in our exciting whirl was the Christmas Dance, poetically called “The Holly and the Bells. ' Eddie Anderson and Brenda Duke were chosen to reign over the festivities. On January 8, a new sport was introduced at MSHS when Coach Chapman’s wrestling team had its first match with Pulaski. Although the boys suffered several defeats, they received valuable experience from their first year of wrestling. Almost before we realized, it was time for the Valentine Dance. “Sweethearts ' Paradise” was held Febru¬ ary 22 in the transformed school cafeteria with Bobby Campbell and Peggy Hopkins crowned king and queen. “A Little Honey,” the Senior T’lay, was presented April 3. Leading the fine cast were Doris Adams, Rich¬ ard Kirk. Jane Potter. Sandy Garvey, and Roy Martin. Finally the long-awaited day of the Senior trip arrived. With excitement the Seniors set off on May 13 for a dazzling four days. On May 16 they returned, tired but happy. We ended our high school days on May 28, but our memories of these years will never leave us. Page 37 JUNIORS I ' ice President J. S.

Echols’ class studies history through biography. Mr. Harkins explains the make up of the Federal government to the class. The world geography class studies rubber, a product of several countries. Our students study social studies in order to understand present events from history and geography. They also study our Federal, State, and local governments so that they may become better citizens. Term papers and book reports supplement lectures and class discussions. World Geography is taugh by Mr. Hayter, U.S. and Virginia History by Mrs. Echols, Mr. Vinters, and Mr. Hayter; World History ' by Mr. Hankla; and Government by Mr. Harkins and Miss Neff. | Social Studies Edwin Whitmore points out Western Europe as he reports to the class. Biology students dissect an earthworm. Science The Physics class measures radioactivity. Students taking science courses at M.S.H.S. have the opportunity to work in modern labora¬ tories under the skilled supervision of Miss Marlene Sadler and Mrs. Jane Waters, Biology; Mr. Jack Cox, Chemistry; and Mr. Harlan Pafford, Physics. Advanced courses are offered to interested students, and this year there are two in Advanced Chemistry, one in Advanced Physics, and twelve in Advanced Biology. Lectures and reading supplemented by expe¬ riments give students an understanding and mastery in each field, and a science project chosen by each student makes the course more interesting for him. Chemistry students learn through experimentation. Mr. Earp explains binomial expansion to his class. Academic Math The Academic Math program at M. S. H. S. includes Trigonometry, a one-semester course offered to juniors and seniors with Solid Ge¬ ometry offered the other semester. Plane Geom¬ etry, Algebra I and II, and Advanced Math. In Geometry the student gains an under¬ standing of deductive reasoning and plane and space figures. In Trigonometry the student develops com¬ putational skills and studies identities, trigo¬ nometric equations, and angles. The Algebra program has been broadened to include a good deal of trigonometry, some elementary 7 calculus, and other phases of higher math. Advanced Math bridges the gap between intermediate algebra and calculus and contains trigonometry, analytic geometry 7 , and college algebra. Our excellently equipped mathematics lab¬ oratory contributes greatly to these courses. Advanced Math students study the transit. I Mrs. Overbey and her bookkeeping class pause to pose. Commercial Math Ann Freeman demonstrates Venn diagrams to the class. Terminal Mathematics is taught in the junior or senior year for the students who are in the general or commercial course. It is planned for those pupils who need more knowledge in the fundamentals of mathematics and in the application to everyday problems and needs. The units studied include Statistics, Better Buymanship, Using Consumer Credit, the Fam¬ ily Budget, Taxes, and Measurements. Business Math is designed so that it has value for personal use as well as for business use. The class is organized so that the begin¬ ning units develop the principles and opera¬ tions through a study of problems faced by every individual in his daily life. Neatness and good penmanship are stressed in bookkeeping. The basic procedures to be applied in keeping records systematically and accurately are offered through this course. High school bookkeeping may be used as a basis toward a possible career in accounting. The business math class works industriously. r m iss Wolfendon’s class takes and transcribes shorthand.

The Senior High School Library Club endeavored to achieve the following things for the students: 1. To offer reading guidance. A pupil ' s growth in read¬ ing depends largely on his opportunity to use varied materials and to choose, with guidance, those which are appropriate for his own abilities, interests, and improvements. 2. To assist pupils with reference work and research. 3. To offer instruction in how to use the library. 4. To contribute to personal growth. The library is an area in the school where pupils learn to share fa¬ cilities and materials, to assume personal responsi¬ bility as they serve each other as library helpers, and to observe regulations for borrowing books and other materials. By recommending appropriate reading material, we may frequently help the stu¬ dent solve his problems. Junior High School Cooperative Association S. 1. A. members were in charge of bulletin boards. The S. C. A. seeks to promote student activity, to develop harmonious relations between stu¬ dents and faculty, to assist in the management of school projects, to develop attitudes of good citizenship, to promote the welfare of the school, develop initiative and responsibility, to provide a laboratory for citizenship, and to provide an opportunity for the training of student leaders. The Student Council has assisted in the selling of school supplies, annuals, athletic tickets, and the newspaper. They sponsored a Valentine and Spring dance, the newspaper, a popsicle contest for the purpose of securing athletic equipment, a radio program, a talent program, and a sock-hop.

The inventions of Thomas Edison have affected the lives of people every¬ where. They have created entire industries — ours, for example. Under America’s Free Enterprise system, inventive people like Edison can expect special compensations — profit, honor and satisfaction. The hope of attaining such rewards has been one of our nation’s greatest incentives to progress. It is a goal that prods imagi¬ native minds in their quests for new products and methods. Not everyone can be a Thomas Edison. However, every trained, dedicated graduate can anticipate a full measure of our society’s rewards. Without your help we would not be able to publish our annual.

Though ROUTE 64 has come to an end, our journey is not finished; it extends ever before us to the limitless horizons. It is our hope that often in your journey onward you will pause to travel ROUTE 64 again and relive your high school days, “the sweetest time of life.” May we extend heartful thanks to the gracious patrons of our com¬ munity, and to every student and teacher whose generous cooperation lias made the publication of the 1964 HURRICANE possible.
