CLASS WILL We, the Senior Class of 1963, in the county of King and Queen and in the state of Virginia, being in our normal state of mind, which is highly unusual, do declare this document to be our last will and testament. Feeling that our achievements and astounding records should forever be inscribed in the archives of Marriott High, we thereby reserve this position in the 1963 Royalty. We leave first, our best wishes and sincere appreciation for the leadership and guidance rendered us by the administration at Marriott. Irma Harper leaves her naturally curly hair to Phyllis Jean Taylor so her mother won’t have to curl it. Linda Palmer leaves her ability to produce new cheers to the forthcoming cheer- ing squad. Carroll Lee Walker leaves his ability to skip school to George Martin. Joyce Schools leaves her job of getting out candy to anybody in the junior class who wants it. Mary Mundie leaves her early engagement to Delores Otto. Charlotte Crouch leaves her commercial ability to Rachel Wyatt or anyone else who wishes to take office practice next year. Bettie Beane leaves her ability to get along with the teachers to Alice Seal. Robert Shackelford leaves his laziness to Charles Gray. Carolyn Taylor leaves her driving ability to Billy Turpin in hopes that he can miss the next deer. Phyllis Reynolds leaves her time spent in the office to Victor Ainsley. John Burnley Jeffries leaves his ability to sneak drinKS into government class to Dolly Beadles. Mary Moore leaves her art ability to Barbara Williams. Mary Ann Loving leaves her height to Mary Lois Fogg. The senior boys leave their ability to skip class to those who have not yet learned the art. Anita Broache leaves her quiet and courteous ways to Jane Garnett. Biddy Acree leaves her little physical ed. class to Kenneth Stone and her tardi- ness to Roger Harper. Shirley Chenault leaves her basketball ability to Gloria Elliott. The Seniors of 1963, with our sponsor, Mrs. Reid, leave in hopes that we can be successfully replaced. Signed and sealed on this the 3rd day of June in the year of 1963.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PAST Today, as seniors of 1963, we turn back the pages of time to September, 1951, when 27 shy, puzzled and frightened six year olds entered the first grade with Mrs. Helen B. Clark as our teacher. We entered the second grade taught by Mrs. Alvin Crouch with some of our classmates leaving us. In this grade we found ourselves in the corner behind the door on one foot many times. During the third and fourth years of school we were under the leadership of Mrs. Hobart Earman. We remember doing much art work in these grades. We entered the fifth grade with Mrs. Clare Mitchell as our teacher. During our sixth year Mrs. Mattie Minor was our teacher. Then we entered the seventh grade with Mrs. Porter Alexander as our teacher. Her great task was to get us ready to move to the next step in our education - high school. During the eighth grade we were under the instruction of Mr. William Littlepage. This year we enjoyed the experience of changing teachers for each class. Mrs. Dor- cas Lawson was our teacher during our freshman year. Throughout our sophomore year we enjoyed having Mr. James Coates as our homeroom teacher. Our junior year was action-packed with Mrs. Joseph Reid as our sponsor. The main event of this year was the prom with An Evening in Paris as our theme. Now we are seniors of ' 63. With the help of Mrs. Reid we have concluded our activities for the year. Anita Broache has joined us and we have sixteen in our graduating class. Our history is in the past and our careers are in the future. We face the future with warm courage and high hopes. Joyce Charlotte Phyllis Mary L. Shack Irma Mary S. Linda Carolyn John B.
