Text from Pages 1 - 216 of the 1969 volume:

Long, long ago, a Viking was feared and respected wherever he went. This hero of the Northland left his mark on the land, the people, and most important, the heritage of the Old World. He was a giant of a man with broad shoulders and sinewy limbs —a man of great strength. Many traits that he developed within himself helped him gain the respect of everyone with whom he came in contact. Sometimes after the evening meal had been eaten, his father would tell him tales of heroic deeds done on some distant shore, and the child would dream of someday doing valorous things. During his growth into manhood, the boy kept his body strong and fit by exercising it. Hunting food for his family and playing games of skill with the other boys in the community helped him to be¬ come agile. He was anxious to learn, and he learned quickly the things which the village pedagogue taught about the stars, the earth, the sea and es¬ pecially about people. Finally, the day of which he had dreamed for so long came. He was called battle in protection of his upon to fight his first people. Armed with a helmet of gold, a flashing sword and a shining shield, the young man charged fearlessly into battle, and proved himself worthy to wear the honored name of “Viking.” But courage was not his only trait. He was loyal and willing to fight for a cause that was just. He was not afraid of hard work and he never grumbled when it fell his lot to do the meanest tasks. He had a keen sense of humor; and it was usually difficult to make him angry, because he was quick to forgive anyone who crossed him. The Viking was con¬ stantly in search of new fields to conquer, both in warlike situations and in the field of learning to live better with his fellow man. He was daring enough to leave his homeland in a ship, to sail un¬ known waters, and to discover the New World al¬ most five hundred years before Columbus began his expedition. The Viking was a man of wonders, and we of North Forsyth are proud to be identified with him. As Vikings this year we worked for and developed some of the same traits of loyalty and honor that would make us worthy of not merely the Viking name, but the Viking spirit.

Pursuing this interest, the club visited Carolina Biological Supply House, Bowman Gray School of Medi¬ cine and other local medical facilities. The highlight of the year was the State Health Careers Convention in March. Do microscopic animals transmit signals? The Science Club found out they do by experimentations and re¬ corded these signals. Meeting in the new science lab, the group also worked on radiographs (where a picture is pro¬ duced by radiation other than light) and on experimentations with polar¬ ized light. Front row: Y.

The girls wrote excuses, made announcements, and ran errands for the office secretaries and principals. In the guidance office, the pages did such chores as changing schedules, checking students out of school, and assisting students needing information on different colleges.

The Atkins Camels defeated the Vikings. North played a great first half, but ran out of steam in the second. The team regained its strength when a fifty yard run by Gene Bowles led North to a victory over Burlington. Homecoming was capped by a win¬ ning game.

Parties to celebrate the close of school were given by excited students. Plans were made for beach trips and final accept¬ ances from colleges began to trickle into the flowing mail. Wouldn ' t it seem funny when all school activities were ended? . . Vikings feel pride in school . . . and feel sorrow in leaving the halls of North. □ 206 thoughtfully Editor ' s note Tonight as we wrap up the 1969 Cynosure, it seems impossible that the climax we have looked forward to all year has finally come. A typewriter is still clacking its way through final bits of copy, last-minute pictures are being cropped and the layouts are being revised or tedi¬ ously recopied to conform to a last-minute check. The tension of the encroaching deadline is keeping everyone going a little later than usual. It s been quite a year for the Cynosure. It started with a two-day session with Mr. C. M. Layman, Jr., Mrs. Lowder and myself; and tomorrow it will end at Hunter ' s when we submit our materials. Between September and February there has been a steady stream of events. The arrival of class rings, the taking of class pictures and teachers ' candids, homecoming, exams, honor grads and Mardi Gras kept us constantly on the run. Thursday night sessions on the floor at Mrs. Lowder ' s house resulted in finished pictures and daily sessions in the journalism work room resulted in stacks of completed copy. Finally we got to the panic point, and the versatility of my five associates came through. Special “thank you ' s go to Steve and Debbie for stepping in to take sports pictures when they were so desperately needed. To Devona for typing copy as well as writing and editing it. To Terry for counting the units in nearly every headline in the book. To Debra for faithfully checking layouts and licking photo envelopes. To Sara and Brenda for continuous moral support and as¬ surance. I wouldn ' t know how to thank everyone for their help this year; I can only hope that they ' ll be rewarded by the result of their efforts. Commendations go to Bill Ray, Holyfield Studios, Chris Coley, Patricia Mickey and especially to Mr. Paul Hepler who took so many pictures for u s. A personal thank-you to my parents and Mrs. Lowder and Mr. Gibson for their patience and understanding. The typewriter is quiet now and most of the staff has gone home. The finished work has been slowly piled onto the table since I started writing this. The clock is striking twelve so it ' s time to go home and sleep, for a change. Jane Shermer P. S. — On behalf of the entire school, we ' d like to congratulate Ann Wood for the excellent rating achieved on the 1968 Cynosure. 207 □ Memories of experiences, however good, can¬ not replace the original experiences. As late winter J developed into spring, seniors at North Forsyth realized suddenly that soon memories would be all they had left of their high school days. Lumps that would not be swallowed began to form in the throats of seniors who sang, “North Star, whose flame burns crimson, white, and blue ..It seemed odd that the headaches and worries about class dues and other money problems, the trouble of making an invitation list, the academic worries of senior subjects were pushed one by one from the minds of the 500 seniors as their thoughts turned to graduation exercises, receiving diplomas, and singing their Alma Mater for the last time as stu¬ dents of North Forsyth. And they were concerned, too, about that cer¬ tain part of each of them which would still be at North after they were gone; the elusive, abstract part of them which would remain as a part of the heritage, the tradition of their school. Whatever spirit they had shown or pride they had displayed were credits to both themselves and the school. The image of the Viking of old stood firmly be- a fore them to help them remember that they, too, 0 were Vikings. The staunch, unwavering giant whose name they claim as their own set a pre- cedent with his being they often felt obliged—oi Jlr, A privileged—to follow. Traditions were altered to meet the ever-changing needs of the individuals that make up the class of ’69, and new ones were established for those who would assume the role of seniors in the years to come. In the course of their efforts, not only the se¬ niors but all of the Vikings tried hard to meet each new event with the spirit bequeathed to them by their Viking forefathers. As is true with any group striving for a common goal, some were more suc¬ cessful than others. But in their attempts to make North a better school, the Viking spirit reared its ? head. L 1 r 1 jT , Now in keeping with that spirit, the Vikings of North Forsyth look to the future with that delicate mixture of pride and humility which promises its bearer a meaninful place in the world. With cour¬ age, determination, and the abundance of hope which belongs only to those who are young, they face tomorrow, knowing that it i must form for themselves. r s a tomorrow they 4 A- W - ■ V T ‘ ' v Y c -rr v-r ' i r r.
