A time to be born, and a time to die; A time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; A time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; A time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; A time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; A time of war, and a time of peace. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 At Marion Senior High School, a time has been found for many things — a time to study, a time to dance, a time to act, a time to play, a time to honor, and a time to lead. We, the Hurricane Staff of 1966, sincerely hope in the years to come that you will look hack on your high school years as a time to rememher.” Page 2 A TIME TO LEAD . 8 A TIME TO GUIDE . 10 A TIME TO REMEMBER . 14 A TIME TO LEARN. 56 A TIME TO RELAX. 70 A TIME TO PLAY. 82 A TIME TO SERVE . 98 A TIME TO REVIEW. 126 A TIME TO BUY. 127 A TIME TO SAY GOOD-BY. 169 f ' 5t T A Time To Look Back Page 5 A Time to Honor Character is revealed by the way one spends his time.” We honor one who has unselfishly given her time to Marion Senior High School. She has assisted students in both curricular and extra-curricular activities. Her pleasant smile and witty personality have brightened many days for those who come in con¬ tact with her. We, the Hurricane Staff of 1966, express our gratitude and deep appreciation to our friend and teacher, Mrs. Wilma Overbey. Page 6 A Time to Supervise Sealed: I.

Pitchers and catchers began training at that time under the direction of Coach Alvin Crowder. Coach Crowder took over the job of coaching the baseball team last season and won the Southwest District Championship. He will have a tough rebuilding job this season because many of the stalwarts from last year graduated. A week after the pitchers and catchers started working, the rest of the squad began work. Rain has forced post¬ ponement of many practices and several games. As of this date of publication, tbe team has a 1 — 2 record. They defeated Radford 2 — 1 in the season’s opener, but they lost one game to Patrick Henry, 7 — 6, and one to Tennessee High, 5 — 2. The pitch is on its way. It looks like a hit!

The Beta Club is an organization which recognizes scholarship character and leadership at MSHS. The club meets once a month either in school or at potluck suppers in the homes of various members. The Beta Club’s only money raising project was selling candy. With the proceeds from this project, the Beta Club donated the necessary funds to the SCA to pay for the Scholastic Letters, given in recognition for excellence in scholarship. The club also gave a basket of food to a needy family at Thanksgiving. This year the Beta Club raised its grade requirement from a ninety average to ninety-three average. Also, the semester probation system was put into effect. This means that if a member’s grade average falls below a ninety average at the end of a semester, then he is on probation until he raises it to a ninety average. The President-elect, secretary-elect, and an elected delegate attended the State Beta Club Convention at Hotel Roanoke on March 18 and 19, with the sponsor, Mr. Winters.

The Literary and Forensic Club is open to all students who are interested in some field of literary work, such as public speaking, spelling, prose, creative writing, or dramatics. To emphasize these interests, members were able to participate in local, county, district, and state forensic meets, and were able to take part in various essay and debating contests. The Club sponsored a literary magazine. The Inkwell, which is composed of student contributions in the field of poefry, essays, prose, and art. The debate team, affiliated with the Forensic Club, was under the direction of Mr. Estep. This year the team used the national topic for high school debate. The team met once a week to debate the topic, and then offered constructive criticism to each other in order to develop skill. The Inkwell staff hurries to meet the magazine deadline. Billy Smith illustrates the fine points of debating. Page 123 2 The Marionette John Britton Editor-in-Chief John W.

A Time To Review In the fall of 1961, 224 eager eighth graders entered the halls of Marion Junior High School. They were thrilled to set out on the new wa y of school life. Our class was split hy differing schedules in 1962. Part of the class became members of the Senior High student body as lowly freshmen. The others remained at the Junior High as high men on the totem-pole.” We set out as one again in 1963 when our class was reunited. We had gained the position of sophomores. Fall ’64 brought with it the name of juniors for our class. It began to look as if all efforts had not been in vain. Varied activities awaited and we were anxious to get started. We were proud of our fellow classman, Judi Phillips, when she was crowned Miss Marion Senior High School in the annual beauty pageant. Claudine Blevins and Mary Mauck represented our class on the Homecoming Court of 1964. On December 4, after much hard work, we presented The Doctor In Spite of Himself,” a farce by Moliere. Spring brought with it more activities. Four of our classmen retired as undefeated champions on WOLD’s HIGH SCHOOL BOWL, winning $100 in prize money. On May 1 we presented the Senior Prom, appropriately entitled The World ' s Fair” in honor of the seniors’ forthcoming trip to New York and the World’s Fair. Finally the long awaited day of ordering rings arrived, and we were fitted for our status symbols.” Summer vacation came and we left school for three months of fun and sun. August 29 arrived soon enough for us and we entered the hallowed halls for our final year. On September 3, under the guidance of Coach Earp, our football squad defeated the Chilhowie Warriors in the first game of the season, with a score of 6-0. Sue Winsett was crowned Miss Marion Senior High School in the beauty pageant on September 11. Members of her court included Mary Mauck, Carol Bates, and Lynn Graybeal. As we thought of college, we talked with representa¬ tives from various colleges and business on College Career Night, September 22. Each of us began to realize that our hopes were now becoming realities. We were elated with the arrival of our rings on Sep¬ tember 24. We were finally wearing the long sought status symbols.” On Thursday, October 19, we began our Homecoming activities, getting them off to a big start with the Variety Show, Marion Monsters. On Friday night the football team was victorious over the Patrick Henry Rebels with a score of 19-0. At halftime Claudine Blevins, attended by Brenda Bales, Judie Eller, Virginia Forrest and Patsy Moore, was crowned the 1965 Homecoming Queen. The Homecoming Dance, Indian Summer, capped off the celebrations. We were fortunate in winning a total of $160 on KLASSROOM KWIZ, WDBG, Channel 7 in Roanoke. Charlotte Thompson, Billy Smith and Robert Lauridsen represented our school very well. On Novermber 5 football season was brought to a close as our boys defeated Saltville, 14-2, in a very exciting game. Butter On the Bacon,” a comedy, was presented by the Junior Class on November 19. Coach Harkins’ basketball team began the basketball season December 3 in a game against Abingdon. Weak¬ ened from the loss of many lettermen, we lost, 70-49, but we were determined not to let it get us down. Silver Bells” was the theme of our Christmas Dance held on December 11. Joie White and Danny Kilby reigned over the festivities. December 21 we left school for an eight day vacation and the annual whirl of Christmas celebrations. How¬ ever, we were faced with study and review for exams when we returned January 3. Snow flurries mounted after exams and we missed nine days of school. Weary of sitting at home we returned to school to start a new semester. On February 12 the Valentine Dance, Happy Hearts,” was presented. James Romans, and Anne Slemp were crowned king and queen during intermission. Coach Weaver and his mat-men ended a very suc¬ cessful season in February with a 10-3 record. A rip roaring upset over the Tazewell Bulldogs ended the basketball season. The score was 69-61. We ended the season with a 5-5 district slate and a 5-13 overall record. Then we traveled to Bristol to play in the district tournaments defeating Grundy Thursday night, but bowing to Bristol Friday night. Desperate Ambrose,” a three act farce, western style, was presented by the seniors on April 15. Spring was filled with baseball games and track meets. As it happens every year it seemed that everyone had a slight touch of Spring Fever.” On April 30 the juniors presented the seniors with a lovely prom. We were off. May 10, for a tour of Virginia and Wash¬ ington. A tired but jovial class returned to school the follow¬ ing week to buckle down for the final lap of high school days. The biggest night of our lives came on June 9, as we realized with solemn pride that we had finally com¬ pleted a twelve-year task. We leave the hallowed halls with high hopes and a deep sense of thanks to friends and teachers who have helped us in our accomplishment. We leave, but our spirits will forever remain here, where we spent the sweetest days of life.

Washington Ave. Vinton, Virginia Phone Roanoke 34-20653 SMYTH COUNTY In 1882 Edison had a great idea - - and it wasn’t the electric light ' I ' lie whole idea of investor-ownership of electric light and {)ower companies began when Thomas A. Edison and a group of in¬ vestors financed his first power plant more than 80 years ago. Since then, investor-owned companies like ours have become an integral part of America’s Free Enterprise system. That explains why today we have at our fingertips more electric power than any other country in the world. And it’s this same Free Enterprise system that puts at your fingertips greater oppor¬ tunity, greater expectation for success than can be hoped for by any other young people in the world.
