We honor her as an inspired teacher, who has always been eager to instill into her pupils a desire for learning, and who has filled every moment with useful activity, working hard herself and requiring the same of her pupils. All this, coupled with a true love and interest in every child who entered her classroom, has gained for her the respect of teachers and pupils alike. Her presence at the North Carolina School for the Deaf will be greatly missed, but, for many years to come, her influ- ence will be felt in the lives she has touched. To Mrs. Warber - a teacher in the highest sense of the word - we dedicate this book. Special Shs to the Sponsors Mrs. HucH BicHAM ROBERT W. SCRIBNER Mrs. JACK STARRETT The Class of 1962 appreciates very much Mrs. Hugh Bigham’s accepting the job of financial advisor and banker for us and also for her invaluable help in making our Junior-Senior Banquet so enjoyable. We thank Mr. Robert Scribner for his hard work in helping us during our junior year to make all our business transactions in connection with earning money for our senior fund so successful. We shall never forget how patient he was with us. We also want to thank Mrs. Jack Starrett for giving so much of her time in helping us with our annual, for being so thoughtful, and for giving us many good times. We will remember her always. Superintendent Ben E. HOFFMEYER Your new world which is to follow your graduation might be compared to space for the horizons are only limited by your desire and ability to conquer them. Opportunities will present themselves and we can only hope that we have prepared you well so you can make the most of them.

Witnessed by: Mrs. Hugh Bigham Mrs. Jack Starrett Signed by: The Class of 1962 Clos Prophecy Sam McCord On October 3, 2006, I was asked to re- tire as supervisor at Goodwin Hall. I had saved one million dollars during the last 45 years. I decided to fly to Mars. When I arrived, I was surprised to see Larry Helms who was president of the Red Planet. He said that Barbara An- drews was on one of the moons of Mars, so I flew there to visit her and was shocked to see her hair colored green and her skin purple. Barbara owned a dance school there. She advised me not to go to Jupiter to see Mary Pegram because she said Mary was no taller than Thumbelina. I refused to believe Bar- bara. I arrived on Jupiter and when I came to Mary’s home, she flew to my hand. I had to use Mrs. Bigham’s old-fashioned magnifying glass to see her. After visiting with Mary, I went to one of Jupiter’s biggest moons to surprise two bachelor kings, Tim Hickman and Wayne Fox. They lived in a beautiful castle with many diamonds imbedded in the walls. They advised me to go to Sat- urn, the home of Ruth Caudle. Tim said that she was huge, even taller than the old tower of Main Building. I was ter- rified and refused to visit her. After leaving the castle, I boarded a plane to Pluto to visit that planet’s only linotype operator, Bob Scarboro. As the plane passed by Saturn, Ruth saw it and caught it. She wanted to kill me. I showed her my toy mouse and snake which I had kept as mementos of days at school. They scared her and she let me continue my journey. When I met Bob Scearboro, I found out that he was still crazy about sports. He had been wonder- ing about Barney Williamson. I told him that Barney had broken Babe Ruth’s record by making 120 home runs in 77 games in Seward’s Icebox in Alaska. Bob was so surprised that the Yankees had moved to Alaska. He thought the Yan- kees would have frozen to death. I told him that Earth has another new sun to provide heat for all sections. Away to Neptune I then flew for an educational visit. I was surprised that Louise Ballew’s husband, Mr. Zersyar- fer] operated a rocket machine for Nep- tune. Louise was one of the four girls in my graduating class who had children. She had one hundred! She asked Zers- yarfer] to take me over to Uranus to visit Mrs. Mary Frances Zimmerman. I was surprised to see that Mary Frances was taller than her husband. They were happy and had four muscular sons. Mrs. Zimmerman fed them “inanimate steaks”. ‘I flew to Saturn again to say hello to Ruth Caudle and asked her to forgive me for scaring her. She forgave me im- mediately. She introduced me to her husband, Smr. Satterr. I couldn’t shake his hand because he was as tall as the Empire State Building. I was afraid to walk around Saturn because the people were so tall. It was sweet of Smr. Sat- terr to hold me in his hand. The people on Saturn were mostly square-shaped. Then I flew to Jupiter in a satellite be- longing to Mr. Clinlmley Dour, the hus- band of Ellamary Caligan. ENamary had five sets of female twins. All of them looked like ENamary when she was in her girlhood. The three of us spent a night with Mary Alice Webb Pempsy- tharath. Mr. and Mrs. Pempsytharath owned Web Manufacturing Company. They made huge webs from Mary Alice’s hair. Then I flew to Mars again to visit Larry’s new wife, Sism Yduj Doow. Both of them looked happy. The people on Mars were happy to have Yduj as their “First Lady” in “Greenish House”. Yduj asked me to stay with them one more week and I accepted her invitation. I enjoyed the visit with Larry and his new wife. I was surprised to see Mildred Lewis of Venus, Judy Harris of Mercu- ry, and Bertha Pierce of Uranus there. We talked about our days at N.C. S. D. Finally I decided to fly home again. I flew to Hawaii and, as I got out of my plane, I stared at the most famous and most beautiful girl in the world. Guess who she was? She was Lucille Waldrup. She looked the same but had many wolves chasing her. Then I flew to N. C. S. D. to visit Mr. Ben E. Hoffmeyer, retired superintend- ent of N. C. S. D. I told him about the class of 62. He was shocked to hear that Mary was one inch tall and that Ruth was taller than the tower of Main Build- ing. I enjoyed my tour and visiting the members of my graduating class, but I was sorry I did not see Barney Williamson.

The 1961 football season was _ sur- The Season’s Record prise to everyone. At the start of the season the hopes for a successful Bear team looked very dim. Noro... Opponents There were only two starters return- 13 — Cranberry 13 ing from the 1960 championship team which, with the inexperience of the rest 41 — Old Fort 6 of the team, totaled out to be a very 13 — Salem 21 small squad. But with a couple of games 3 (eer csenure under their belts, and a few changes in ry ey the line-up, the Bears developed into See prae avs one of the top ranking teams in the 19 — Oak Hill conference and in the state. Everyone 19 — Glen Alpine 24 was surprised when they ended the sea- py ae yaasts Vance 19 son with a 7-2-1 record. 45 — Bakersville 6 This season will best be remembered Une reset 19 for several of the exciting games, the fast development of all the players, and by the outstanding performances given by the junior tailback, Charles Crowe. First row, left to right: Betty At the beginning of last fall only a handful of new inexperienced girls with a few regular players reported to start conditioning for basketball under the tutelage of a new male coach. These girls were kept in constant practice in soft- ball and other field events until the end of the season. The Lady Bears had their first game with Nebo and they played as if they had never played basketball before. Some of the new rules, to which they had not readily adjusted themselves, scared them to death. However, they were encouraged and pushed to improve themselves every game they played, and as a result, they entered the semi-finals of the Burke County Tournament at Drexel; this the Lady Bears had never accomplished before. What they lacked in ability, they had in courage and de- termination which fact brought them into the semi-final game — losing to George Hildebrand by the score of 57-47. Our key player, Nancy Brantley, with a season’s record of 267 points to her credit, received good support from Bob- bie Poole, Mary Scarboro, Annie Wat- son and Betty Isenhour. Barbara Cole, Joan Johnson, Marie Pegram, Sue Williams, and Carolyn Daniel did most of defensive work. With them back next season, we can be as- sured that they will do better with the experience they had this year.

The bulk of the squad were sophomores who made up for their lack of experience with a keen desire to play and with a good share of natural basket- ball know - how. Most of the time the Bears played better than anyone expected, and in the last few games of the season our boys were a threat to even the strongest teams in the conference. We had three superb shooters in Bled- soe, Lockamy and Crowe. Bledsoe had 295 points to his credit with an average of 17.3 points per game. Lockamy had a total of 252 points with a per game average of 14.8. Crowe was next with a season’s total of 209, making an average of 13.1 points each game. Our guards proved to be some of the best ball-handlers in the league. Dean Taylor, Bobby Cooke, Larry Snipes and Pat Stuckey were all above average at maneuvering the ball into position for our taller forwards to shoot. The entire team is to be congratulated for their effort, interest and good spirit in making this a most interesting bas- ketball season at N.C. S. D.
