Mears for three years of hard work and unselfish devotion we wish to dedicate “The Cavalier” of 1952 to him. We are extremely grateful for his encouragement and enthusiasm at the times when our zeal was gone. No one knows better than the football team, whom he coached through an undefeated season. To him, who is loved and admired by all, we dedicate this volume and trust that it will be a pleasant reminder of his years at NKHS. se oe wet snes | Contents . Book | Administration .

Class History In 1947 forty-one shy and bewildered students entered the eighth grade, looking forward to a great. life in high school. Only twelve of those forty-one students have reached their senior year at New Kent. Mr. S. T. Hockaday, just from the army, was our homeroom teacher and he tried his best to keep us quiet and at the same time calm any fears or doubts of the new adventure that awaited us. Here, we joined ourselves together like brothers and sisters. In the ninth grade, our first real year of high school, we were given the large and weighty problem of selecting one elective subject and were first introduced to the mysteries of algebra. We were indeed Freshmen, green and fresh in our dewy innocence. We received at this time the first seeds of knowledge and felt the first pull of the plow and cultivator in this spring of our career. This year only twenty-five scholars returned, but we had Jack Joyce from Linton Hall Mili- tary School to join our class and become one of the gang. Mr. G. A. Waldrop was our calm and patient advisor and our class officers for this session were; presi- dent, Dare Peace; vice-president, Ann Tuttle; secretary, Dorothy Bailey; and treasurer, Mildred Post. Swiftly the happy months went over, months of study and toil and struggle, on the campus and in the classroom. We strove valiantly together, wrestling with the mighty problems that our teachers set before us till the year had passed and made us sophomores. Each year there are greater tasks to face and conquer. This year Mrs. T. L. Newton had the responsibility of us through the sopho- more class with the class officers being Dorothy Bailey, president; Jack Joyce, vice-president; Dare Peace, secretary; and Alice Jo Davis, treasurer. Soon we welcomed two newcomers, Thomas Haley from Toano High School and Ralph Mc- Laughlin from Highland Springs. We had the responsibility of entertaining the Seniors this year as there was no Junior Class because of the adoption of the twelve year system in 1947. This big event began by leaving school on a hay ride to Jamestown where we had a weenie roast, after which we played baseball and other games until dark. Then, we boarded the truck again and went to the skating rink near Williamsburg. There, every one found the floor to be extra hard and, the next day we were a bunch of stif f and bruised amateurs. At last two years were ended and as bright and jolly Juniorsin1950, we were the top class in school. Mrs. T. V. Ponfrey, now our faithful counselor, only had twenty-two names on roll, including Lynn Jo Miller, who came to us from West Virginia. The following were chosen as class officers: president, Jack Joyce; NAG Gare e ser Alice Jo Davis; secretary, Dorothy Bailey; and treasurer, Mabel isher. Our class treasury this year was desperate so we served The Hundred Bushel Corn Club, making $250.00. We were really rich, so with this we bought the school eighty song books and took a weekend t rip to Washington D. C. with Mr. and Mrs. Pomfrey and Mr. and Mrs. Mears as chaperones. We shall never for- get the fun which was shared by all on the trip. On September 10, 1951, with Mrs. Stone as our instructor, we entered our last year at ole New Kent High School, electing the following class officers: presi- dent, Ann Tuttle; vice-president, Jack Joyce; secretary, Dorothy Bailey; and treasurer, Thomas Violet. We were dignified seniors about to graduate into a world filled with chaos and responsibilities. We have been fortunate, indeed, in developing lifelong friendships among our classmates and have benefited by the capable instruction and guidance by the members of the faculty. 10 At Last Were Seniors mbetter tate than never, say the senior class officers as President, Anne Tuttle, explains last night's English assignment. The other hard workers are Dorothy Bailey, Secretary; Thomas Violet, Treasurer; and Jack Joyce, Vice President. We the class of 1952 set out on our quest four happy years ago. We have achieved the goal toward which we have been advancing, but, like any other work, only the wisest and strongest have sur- vived the hardships encountered. Our individual goals of knowledge have been acquired in proportion to the energy expended Reitoesealchu, We have completed a phase of our lives and are on the brink of a new world. As is always the case, when embarking on a new venture, we prefer to look back, rather than ahead. In reminiscing over the years spent at New Kent High School, many memories bring a flush Pee ai to our hearts. il Our Motto DOROTHY ANN BAILEY The saying, nice things come in small packages may well be applied to Dorothy. She doesn't seem to study very much but always has good grades. She can be serious, if nec- essary, but also enjoys a good joke. Best of everything to you, Dorothy. MARGARET DOROTHY BOROUGHS Margaret's quiet ways and nice disposition have won her many friends. She is friend of all and enemy of none. She pretends to be shy around males but of course we know better. Good luck, Margaret. ROBERT WESLEY COUCH Robert's always willing to help attitude has made him a valuable member of our class. He received the Citizenship Trophy in 1950--a good sign that our faith in him was well placed. We will always remember you for your dependability, Robert, ALICE JOSEPHINE DAVIS Twinkling eyes and sweet smiles best describe the most popular little gal in our class. Alice Jo's wonderful person- ality and wit have provided us with many moments of fun and laughter---moments which we'll always cherish. Stay as sweet as you are now, Alice, and you'll go far. Not For Self But For All” DOROTHY GERTRUDE DILLARD Dorothy holds the title of the most athletic girl in the Senior class. She is known not only for this but for her warm personality and friendliness. Lots of luck in everything, Dot. MABEL VIRGINIA FISHER Upon Mabel's shoulders was placed the mighty task of be- ing Editor of our Annual. She has carried her responsibility wonderfully as we knew she would from the first. Her disposi- tion plus her pleasing personality will carry her far. We'll never forget you, Mabel, and how hard you've worked for us this year. THOMAS ALONZO HALEY Thomas has not been with us through all of our high school years. He joined our class a few years ago and immediately his friendliness and personality made him one of the gang. His main ambition is to be a teacher and athletic coach and we know the school that snares him will be a lucky one. JACK JOYCE Jack is the Apollo of our class. The class poet and State Reading Champion, Jack's ability for expressing himself with golden words is well known. Good luck, Jack, we'll always remember you as one of our most “illustrious” classmates. io! Seniors Leave for College, RALPH ESTY McLAUGHLIN Ralph's friendliness has spread not only in our class but in all of the classes at New Kent. He is always ready to help and to express his op- pinion when called upon. We hope the gates of opportunity will swing wide for you, Ralph. ‘ LYNN JO MILLER Although Lynn has not been at New Kent long she has quickly become one of us. She doesn't like to study much, but we know she will always have fun wherever she goes. Good luck in your career, Lynn, whether it be professional skating or washing baby diapers. VIRGINIA DARE PEACE Dare's vivaciousness in school and out is well known throughout the school. Her energy is as well displayed in cheerleading as it is in her studies (which her report card will show). With added traits of dependa- bility and leadership we're sure you will succeed in anything you do, Dare. FRANK RAYMOND RICHARDSON Frank is the Romeo of the class. He is always snatched up when dra- matic talent is needed. With his keen mind and quiet disposition, he has become an important factor of our class-work, We'll miss seeing those wavy curls,but we're sure one member of our class will have that opportunity. Jobs, or Married Life MARY -ELLEN STARKEY “What would we do without Mary-Ellen ? That's a question the Class of '52 often ask themselves, She was always ready to come through with the suggestion or answer for which we were looking. Mary -Ellen plans to enter some phase of medicine, and we know that in this or any other profession, she will be a huge success. NANCY WOODWARD TAYLOR A sweet disposition and friendliness are only a few of the qualities which Nancy possesses, Whenever we have problems we can always count on her for her sunny smile and optimistic outlook, With more people like you, Nancy, the world will be a far better place in which to live, ELIZABETH ANN TUTTLE Since Ann is president of the Senior class, we know she possesses the qualities of a leader, Her pleasing personality and warm smile have seemed to sink into the hearts of many, Ann also has the honor of being the Best Looking Girl in the Senior class, With such a combination, you can't lose, Ann, THOMAS EDWARD VIOLET Thomas is best known for his good athletic ability and his spon- taneous remarks in the classroom, We were very proud of him when he was chosen in football as the “Most Valuable Player of the Year and we're sure that with his keen mind. he'll go far, 15 Prophecy A LETTER TEN YEARS HENCE Dearest Ann, ; Have been trying to get a letter off to you for these many months and with so much news to tell you, My, how time does fly, It seems as if it were only yesterday when Alice Jo, Nancy, and all of us kidded you about having twins and to think that I would be elected to this important post! Little did I dream that Bill would come charging into my life in a convertible instead of on a white steed, wrecking all my plans of a career in nursing, Yes, I'm playing nurse-maid to our twins instead of alleviating the pains of the world as I had so attained, Isn't it funny to think that it was YOU whom we picked for the twins and now to think that Jimmy, Jr, is eight years old and still no twins, Do you get much news of our old classmates now since you moved out west? I happened to visit with Mabel Fisher the other day, but that's right her name has changed, Well, Dearie, you wouldn't know her, She is quite the domesticated type, cooking and slaving for her six brats and I mean brats! Honestly, I thought with her ability for teaching she would have more discipline at home, but I must admit they are a cute and happy group and making one think that marriage with a large family is really worth while. I suppose you heard that Alice Jo married the famous surgeon, Dr, Scapel-Cure-It-All, I understand that he is abroad lecturing on his famous theory of surgery -neuro- or something, but Alice Jo isn't left out of the picture entirely, She is taking the continents by storm with her hillbilly ballads of old Virginny, Always said that gal could get somewhere with her looks, voice, and guitar, . I understand that Nancy Taylor is in one of the largest hospitals in New York, having introduced some of the newest therapy in children's diseases, She is very happy in her work and beloved by all the staff as well as her tiny charges, Had a letter from Dare Peace the other day too, Ann, from South America. You know she met that good look- ing intern from Brazil and after a torrid romance, she ismowla senora Fernando Sanchez! They have a lovely hacienda in Rio de Janeiro and I understand three adorable boys, I understand that Thomas Violet has been named senior coach of Yale University and with five sons, he is well on his way to have his own football team, Ralph McLaughlin is really a successful farmer, but on the Q, T. a frustrated photographer, He entertained us the other night, hours on end with his pictures--pigs in repose, chickens awakening at dawn, and the tran- quillity of cows reposing in deep clover masticating their cuds, Can you imagine these artistic settings? Suppose you know that Dorothy Dillard served four years in the Waves and married a wonderful Lieutenant- Commander, They are now stationed in the Philippines, Saw Lynn Jo Miller in Richmond the cther day--you know she married immediately after graduation, She an d her husband have recently opened a lovely skating arena in Barhamsville, Her daughter, Lynn Jo, is a honey and considered one of the champion child skaters in the East, I understand she has been offered a contract with one of the motion picture studios in Hollywood, : Isee Thomas Haley quite frequently, You know he took Mr, Mears place after his retirement, as history teacher at dear old New Kent, He is quite successful and is liked very much by all, You remember Jack Joyce? He entered the Marines immediately after school and has traveled practically everywhere, Kinda’ surprised me that he didn't marry one of those Charles City gals, but from all accounts he is still foot-loose and fancy free. Margaret Boroughs has a grand position as secretary to a firm of lawyers, It is rumored that she is romantic- ally inclined toward one of our senior bosses, I might add, he has money, too, Robert Couch recently won our county's election for Commonwealth Attorney and it is the opinion of all that he will certainly be elected to the Senate in the next election, Somehow I never picked a career like this one for Robert, Thought he would never desert the farm, He really hit the jackpot with twelve kids though. I heard from Dot Bailey the other day, She and her husband are having a grand time on the West Coast, Am sorry but I can't write another line--these kids are driving me mad! They are just the age to get into everything and night finds me too exhausted to think. Hope to get another letter off to you in the near future, Do write, Ann, when you get the chance and remember us to both Jimmy's, Your Classmate of '52 of dear ole New Kent High hich Lhlin, Start . 16 if ‘3 gin | eX A 5 TYfe’ yj i 3 ap Eb a Ky ELS ate oe Son) Ss tt =C) por Ww)” “ee Wo Class Will I, Dorothy Bailey, do hereby will my ability to be quiet to Karen Highland, my willingness as a library worker to Benjamin Ward, and my love for soldiers LOMONIT Le Vere niyie I, Margaret Boroughs, do hereby will my love for West Point to Betty Barf- knecht, my ability to see the brighter side of life to June Stockham, and my seat in chapel to Virginia Dare Kelley.

It has really been a happy year for the members Parco of the Junior Class. Almost a senior was the feel- ing everyone seemed to have. All through the history of our school the entertainment given by the juniors for the seniors has been a gala occasion. This year, as previous the juniors began their planning with much enthusiasm. A three-act play, directed by Mrs. Pom- frey, was presented on January 11, by the junior class. This was one of the projects they had for raising money for the Junior-Senior Reception. Thus, with much pride the juniors addressed their invitations and sent them to the seniors. They seemed pleasingly surprised that a three day trip to Washington, D.C. had been planned for them. The pleasant memories of this trip, as well as the many happy days spent as juniors, will linger in their memories forever. 22 Who Learn From | Mary Lou Smith George Violet Josie Walls The Seniors Lee Allen James Couch Charles Davis George Fisher Bob Fitchett Roy Gephart Jess Goodman Marion Hobson Virgina Dare Kelly Emelia Kurdziel Lillian Moran Elizabeth Morgan Annie Lou Pomeroy Hugh Reynalds Marcia Ryan Norwood Schultz Glass oue53 Sy Ce s Bee GH SCHOOI!

Through the years the students studied hard and when in the fifth grade were rewarded with their first class trip, which was to Williamsburg. Other years brought forth trips to Richmond and Williamsburg, all being very enjoyable and unforgettable. Also in the fifth grade examinations were first encountered. What a hard and unhappy year that was! Now they are accepted and have become a second nature to the pupils. There are now twenty-two students who have braved their first ten years in school, and all are very proud that they have but two years left before they graduate. Mr. Waldrop, for the last two years, has been with the group, acting as sponsor and helping out in assemblies, parties, and giving advice to troubled students. 24 Those Who Reach The Halfway Mark Class of.

This year they had thirty- two pupils in the class. In the past years, they have been on class trips to the Valentine Museum, James- town Island, and Williamsburg. In Williamsburg, they saw movies of historical happenings. This past year, the Freshman Science Class, accompanied by Mrs. Richmond, visited the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, where they saw models of the works of Leonardo Da Vinci. Mrs. Richmond is also the Freshman Class homeroom teacher. The students say it's wonderful to be in high school. 26 Those Who Hope To Move On William Boroughs Shirley Combs Inez Crump Jackie Davie Katherine Davis Evelyn Dillard Dick Ellyson Margaret Fitchett Cecil Goodman Jane Graves Karen Highland Virginia Leber Denver Matherly Marion Morris Sherman McLaughlin Miron Mihalcoe Shirley Mihalcoe Bobby Mills Doris Parsley Betty Ann Peace Walter Philbates Dorothy Seward Eddie Smiley Charles Mihalcoe Calvin Smith Barbara Taylor Elizabeth Watkins Doris Waxmunski | } IEW KENT.c ‘poy : oe, io Safety Patrol FIRST ROW: Billy Richardson, Jackie Anderson, Bill Kurdziel, John Graves, Billy Bowery, John Peace, Gary Meade Richardson.

It is based on leadership, character, scholarship, and achievement. The club collects toys for underprivileged children each Christmas, erected a new flag pole from the profits of the waste paper drive, and purchased a scoreboard for the athletic field. The club has 4@s its objectives: help failing students, run errands, keep class- rooms and grounds clean, assist in library, monitor halls and classrooms, and set an example to maintain good morale. Betty Jane Davis President Dare Peace President The Future Teachers of America Club was organized at New Kent in 1947 and has been steadily increasing interest since. The main objective of the club is to train students for future teachers, by enabling them to gain ex- perience through observation and substitution. In previous years, the future teachers have visited neighboring schools to gain new ideas and compare the progress with that of other schools. Education is America's greatest peacetime enterprise and the young citizens should be completely trained in this field.

The aims, which are to establish an interest in the classics and to learn of the great accomplishments of the Greeks and Ro- mans, have been brought out through the various programs of the year. One of the most interesting times was the attending of the movie ''Quo Vadis in Richmond. Although this club is young, the spirit of the members promises a bright future.

As September 1951 approached, the Library Club started forth on a year on new plans and promising activities. One of the first was to serve refreshments to the teachers at a Faculty Meeting. Book Week found the library members busy tell- ing stories to the grades, giving out book markers, and encouraging the students to read the numerous new books, which were catalogued by library assistants. Miss Hubbard, the librarian, is the club sponsor.

The members developed the ability to debate, speak, spell, and read prose and poetry Other activities which were carried on in the club meetings were the reading of origi- nal poetry by the members, Public Speaking and Prose Reading. From this group students were chosen to represent the school at the Forensic Meet. All the members learned to find books in the library more easily. They stand before a BECUP and speak with more assurance than be- ore. It has been the hope of this Club to have more state winners in the Forensic Meet. Robert Couch President Violet, Visual Aid Club Literary society Thomas Violet President The Visual Aid Club is one of the oldest clubs in the school. Mr. Waldrop is the sponsor of this well organized club. Anyone with passing grades may become a member and membership is voluntary in the club. Two projectors are kept in constant use during the day. An average of four movies a week is sent by the State Department of Education and movies are also sent to the school by organizations in th e county. A record is kept of every movie that is shown. Movie showing may be useful in later life. The armed forces need projector operators in every branch of service.

Under their good sportsmanship and enthusiastic support at our games. Lusty-voiced Bill, sparkling Kitty, vigorous Lynn, enthusiastic Marian, vivacious Dare, peppy Inez, and lively Hugh, inspired good school spirit and loyalty in everyone.

The Glee Club was organized this year under the competent leadership of Mrs. Cox, who has worked faithfully and diligently for the past four years. The purpose of the Glee Club is to pro- vide enjoyment in singing and to further interest in music. The Club provided music for the Christmas program and the gradu- ation exercises. The organization has done much to improve the music at New Kent High. Mrs. W. J...

Mrs. Pomfrey served as girls' basketball coach for the 1952 season. She had an abundance of material and it was quite a problem for the coach to pick the best team. Co-captains: Betty Jane Davis and Dorothy Dillard led the team to several moral victories in spite of overwhelming odds. It is our belief that as time pro- gresses their skill will progress in like manner.
