The pictures upon each of the following pages should give you a colorful story of the every day school life here in our memorable halls. As you leaf through these pages in future years, it is hoped you will look hack on our Alma Mater with high esteem and he ever proud that you schooled with so many distinguished person- alities. Our theme for this volume is music, dedicated to those who played and sang their way into our hearts, the Glee Club who gave our seasonal programs, graduation events and the Band who spurred our athletic teams to victory with the musical notes. Music is an excellent ambassador in any country. city. village, school and home. and we are proud to boast our accomplishment here at Mount Vernon High School.

These troopers are always on call to lend a helping hand to the public. Their duty is to enforce our laws and protect the lives of the masses who travel Virginia! higltways. We, as students, respect and honor these men who have selected such a great task as their life's work. The Fairfax County Police are the school children's body guards. These men direct all trafhc at the school zones during rush hours. They attend school events to control any disturbance which may arise. and they also sponsor the school safety patrols in our schools. To the men of this organization we are truly indebted. for we are ever conscious of the task which faces them each day as our guardians of the highway. After the school socials. everyone gathers at their favor- Everyone knows Chubbie . the friendly Shell dealer ite meeting place which is the Dixie Pig. better known located two blocks north of our school. Ilis service is as the Pig, deeply appreciated as well as that of our other neigh- ,Q boring fuel dealers. Carcia's Restaurant is popular during the teachers' lunch hours, and the Sinclair station is a service to our students as well as our teachers. Mount Vernon High School is located approximately six miles south of Alex- andria on Route l. Since the school is not situated in any particular town, landmarks are necessary to decipher its locality. Garcia's Restaurant, and the Sinclair Service Station are located directly across from the school. 8 MM, My .M--'rj1,','jf',,,W-M- T ADM!

These meetings provide outlets for stu- dents with interests in various activities such as Dramatics, Art, Science, Journalism, and other fields.

The Yearbook Club's purpose is to publish a successful school annual. The members are always striving to better the annual which is to be judged at the Southern lnterscholastic Press Association Conference. Representatives from the club attend this conference at Lexington every year. After much deliberation the club members voted to change publishers and set up a new year- book policy. This policy included a more detailed program of work and a more organized system. To help pay former debts of the club. mein- bers sold hotdogs and all occasion cards. The club wishes to express their thanks for the cooperation of the faculty and the student body in helping to get the yearbook together. ART EDITORS-Left Io right: ,loe Brown.

Snappy marches and colorful half-time pageantry entertained the football fans and spurred the Majors on to vic- tory. Well played overtures and etudes brought laurels to the concert band at the many shows performed during the concert season. Yes, we may well say, that for their first active year, the Mount Vernon High Band surely has done its part. Those sparkling uniforms . . . maroon and grey . . . have, no doubt, been seen in many, many public appearances. Purchased through the combined efforts of tag day, dances, and through the courtesy and cooperation of the popular Band Boosters Club, headed by Mrs. Dewey Johnson and Mr. William Dachtler, the uniforms have added the finishing touches to the grateful Major Band. So much was the band in demand, that it twice had the privilege of appearing coast-to- coast on CBS Television, performing spectacular half-time shows for the local U.S. Army Football Team. Among the other activities, the young musi- cians were treated to an overnight trip to New- port News for the big Cradock-Mount Vernon Game. Concerts and festivals have also helped to fill out their busy schedule. Due to the generosity of the Groveton Lions Club, the Band now possesses a school flag and an American Flag by donation 'fln appreciation for outstanding services . . .', A well rounded concert band, Mount Vernon boasts of four French Horns and an Oboe, re- cently acquired expressly for their heavy concert work. So high are the standards for the band, that four of the musicians were invited to be in the Virginia All State Band. They are Dean Dicker- son, Bob Ditton, Howard Armistead, and James Featherston. And, since this is only the first big year- the beginning of a rosy future . . . hats off to the MV Band. A fine example of band formations which have become a regular part of our athletic programs. ! i a if IL' wl. l L lmft In riglzl: Bl'1'll1lii llill.

V. standpoint was Eddie Westls 96 yard run back of the kickoff following Cradock's fourth touchdown. The Majors traveled to Cradock to play the game on the Admirals' field. Before the game Cradock had a big parade. The Mount Vernon band participated in the parade.
