Today, this year, together with its predecessors, has become a part of the past. Out of these golden years of learning have come joys and sorrows, achievements and disappointments, and lasting friendships, which have strengthened the character and developed the personality of each one of us. In this edition of “YE OLDE TOWNE CRIER”, we have endeavored to record some memories that are a never-to-be-forgotten part of the past. Iu“ SMenviaw” Mr. Lugene Kent MeNetw BIE SIP We AMOUR IGE I We, who are the voice of the OLD TOWN CRIER, wish you to look back- ward with us for a moment at the life of Eugene Kent McNew, not to review any dates, however important or significent, but to recall the little things that only we, who knew him so long and so well, can know. These little things we want to remember always, for in them we read the kind of man he was, the kind of man to whom we gave our love, our loyalty, and our admiration; truly, a man among men. If we are frankly a little sentimental, we hope you will forgive us and re- member that it is only we who are sentimental and never Mr. McNew, who dis- liked all forms of sentimentality. Old Town School was his very own. It became his when he became its principal twenty years ago, and his love for it never faltered and his loyalty never failed. He loved every brick in its walls. He loved the stunted old apple tree that grew in a sunny corner of its courtyard so much that he could not bring himself to have it cut down — remember? He loved the view from the west windows, and the maple trees that are so flamboyant in their autumn dress. Every spring the same mocking bird came back, year after year, as the swallows return to Capistrano, to perch upon the large shrub just outside the office window, to perch and to sing as only a mocking bird in the springtime can sing. Mr. McNew would pause a moment in his work, or halt his words in mid- sentence to listen. Once while a faculty meeting was in progress, the bird sang with such gusto that Mr. McNew turned toward it and with mock sternness said, “Will you kindly go away and let me talk awhile.” Silently the bird transferred himself to a different twig — and sang louder than before. The shrub is gone, and the mocking bird did not come back this spring. Perhaps it sings somewhere else to its favorite audience and wakens again the old listening look and the whimsical smile. Mr. McNew loved all childhood, but in particular, he loved every child who came to Old Town School. He knew them all, and none in leaving ever went so far, or climbed so high, or sank so low as to be beyond the reach of his interest and his embracing affection. He wanted to give all our boys and girls his own intellectual curiosity, his eternal seeking after truth and beauty. No man ever pursued learning more tirelessly, or with greater diligence. He sougnt no empty, meaningless degrees, but loved learning for its own sake. He looked for it and found it everywhere, transmuting it from the superficial into true wisdom. On tne very day that Mr. McNew left school for the last time, a former college professor called at the office and talked for longer than the usual time. After he left, he.said of Mr. McNew, “His influence will live forever. Who knows what fruit it will bear a hundred, or a thousand years from now.” Who, indeed, knows when, or where, upon the ever upward-winding stairs of the ages, his influence will reach out to lives and generations yet un- creamed of. When senior literature classes at Old Town in recent years have studied Chaucer and have first met the Oxford Scholar, their reaction has invariably been the same. After reading the lines — “He seldom spoke; but what he said was clear, And of sense, so that you wished to hear; Of high ideals and virtue was his speech; And gladly would he learn, and gladly teach.” the response has always been prompt and sure, “That describes Mr. McNew.” Last year we quoted the last line in our dedication of the OLD TOWN CRIER to him. Never were the words used more appropriately. Here was a man to whom honor was dearer than all other things, even life itself, and he was proudly careful to put no blemish upon a stainless page. Let no man dare to dream that it was ever otherwise. We are persuaded that, from his duty and from his pledged word, no ambition, no pleasure, no desire — nothing — could ever move him. He learned in bitterness that the race is not always to the swift, nor the victory to the strong, nor yet honor to the honorable. He had, however, no time, ever, for recriminations or fault-finding, no capacity for bearing a grudge, and no taste for self-pity. He was, withal, a happy man, finding life good, and bringing to it a zest for living and for enjoying simple things. His humor sparkled tirelessly, its irony always kindly toward MAN, but barbed and biting when turned upon man’s mistakes of government and lead- ership, his worst foibles, and his amazing stupidity in directing world affairs. Mr. McNew’s personal philosophy underlay the following expression of the philosophy he formulated for his school: “We emphasize clear insight in the art of matching cause and effect and caution our students against accepting the academic statements of those whose positions might lend weight to their utterances. We would have our students pay adequate respect where respect is due, but eschew subservience and appeasement. We entertain the hope that our boys and girls may be model American citizens.” One of his favorite bits of literature was the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. He kept a small copy of it near him and read from it frequently. Do you re- member how often he quoted from it, especially the lines, “Ah, take the cash and let the credit go, Nor heed the rumble of a distant drum’’? There was another book he kept beside him and read from frequently — the Bible. The copy he bought the year he came to Old Town is worn and shabby now. He marked favorite passages and referred to them often. As we think of Mr. McNew, these lines about the gracious Duncan come back to us: “After life’s fitful fever he sleeps well; Treason has done his worst; nor steel, nor poison, Malice domestic, foreign levy, nothing, Can touch him further.” Yes, the tired, frail body, worn out in our service, sleeps well, and long; but the soul wakes, surely, upon some flaming sunrise. N ee Cerne a A ED © A Tei@an The 1952 edition of YE OLDE TOWNE CRIER is dedicated to our public school music teacher, in recognition of her many services to Old Town School, its students, and the various communities from which they come. With infinite patience she has endeavored to instill love and understanding of music in the hearts and minds of students at Old Town. She has endeared herself to all of us by her kindness, her conscientiousness, and her unassuming manner. Above other things, however, she impresses one by her ability as a teacher, and by her devotion to the task. It is, therefore, with pride and pleasure that we dedicate this volume to MISS THELMA HALES.

NANEINMOMUR SS TOF (OMUNR (CIEYNS SS) Reminiscences of our past are liberally highlighted with laughter and tears. In trying to bring you the memories of our school years, we must go back to our very first look at Old Town School. After many childhood dreams and games of make believe, Mickey, Annette, Barbara, Peggy, Joanne, Lorena, Ann Nicholson, Betty, Dotty, Vallie, Eleanor, Faye, Anne Wooters, Carolyn, Bobby Allen, Bobby Brewer, Kyle, Jack, Eddie, and Charlie met as future classmates for the very first time, but oh! what an introduction! You guessed it, our parents had pushed, pulled, and dragged us to school for our small- pox vaccinations. Early in this same month, September, 1940, we met again, but this time our faces were beaming, our shoes highly polished, the girls’ dresses stiffly starched, and the boys’ suits neatly pressed. We were . a happy bunch, anticipating that all our fondest dreams would come true, but school was not all “peaches and cream.” Mrs. Trivette, our first grade teacher, drew silhouettes of her pupils. Bobby Allen held a flashlight on one side of us and Mrs. Trivette traced the profile from the shadow. We certainly were proud of those portraits. Will we ever forget the day Joanne Dull “died”? Yes, Joanne fainted, and we, not un- derstanding this state of suspended animation, tnougnt that she had just plain died. How surprised we were when she sat up and smiled! Every Wednesday morning we were lined up alphabetically and herded off to assembly, and, being the smallest students, we sat on the front row. Miss Kapp and Mrs. Yarbrough were our second grade teachers. They taught us our ABC's and started our ‘readin’, ‘ritin‘, and ‘rithmetic. Every day we sat in a semicircle and read about Mac and Muff. Remember? Up the stairsteps we went, third, fourth, fifth — but wait, we will never forget Mrs. Murray’s fifth grade. Her favorite punishment was to make the boys and girls sit together when tney were disobedient. How Kyle Fulk, Jack Medlin, Charlie Sapp and Eddie Nicholson would blush! My, how time changes things! Mrs. Murray presented a play at Centenary Church that year entitled “The Birth of Our Flag.” Bobby Allen was George Washington and Barbara Blakley played the part of Betsy Ross. The following year a very strange thing happened. A little German fraulein came to school, so one day we, being as curious as thoughtless, swarmed upon her and gaped in awe at her costume and speech. Our teachers discovered our misbehavior, and at the end of the quarter we had quite a time explaining the “F’ on deportment. Virginia Ritchey entered our class this year. Our class was well-known in grammar school for its fruit rolls, and Mr. Cox and Miss Mullican, our sixth grade teachers, were the recipients of quite a few of these citrus downpours. . We shall never forget Miss Hales’ yearly operettas, one of the highlights in the life of every young pupil in Old Town. During the course of the years, we represented flowers, frogs, jesters, and Gay Nine- ties dancers. In the eighth grade our classes were combined, and since we were a very large class, it was decided that we should occupy the room now known as the senior room. Mr. Hollingsworth, our teacher, loved the Tar Heel State so dearly that he wrote a book on the history of North Carolina. Mrs. Pratt came to our class every day at fourth period, and for that year and the tiree years following, she endeavored to teach us the English language. Larry Sharpe, Buddy Conrad, and Elizabeth Qualls enrolled during this year. Undoubtedly the biggest thrill of our lives came when we entered high school. Evelyn Yarber and Gene Doub were welcome members of our freshman class. The newness finally wore off, and Mr. Brown, our homeroom teacher, settled us down to our studies. We worked hard our junior year with Mrs. Pratt as our sponsor, but we loved every minute of it. “Babies Night Out” was presented by the class and as a result, with our hayrides, dances, swimming par- ties, and contests, we reached our goal. The Junior-Senior banquet was held on the Balinese Roof of the Robert E. Lee Hotel, and a gypsy theme was carried ou:. Spencer Thornton, magician, was tops on the pro- gram. Our beautiful class rings arrived in February of this year. Each of us chose his course, either com- mercial or college preparatory, and we studied hard, with our eyes on a vocation, or a college. And then at last we were seniors with our goal nearly achieved. Somehow we did not dream that our senior year could be quite as eventful as it has proven to be. All the joys and pleasures of the year must be in our memories dimmed by a veil of sorrow. Death threw its shadow over us when Mr. McNew died in February. We shall never forget him! In every tender memory of our school days we shall see his face and hear his voice. Dan Cupid has worked almost as hard as we have this year, since Virginia Ritchey became Mrs. John Reid; Betty Pfaff became Mrs. Clifton Spainhour; and Carolyn Yow became Mrs. Bill Hege. Faye Wolff, Ann- eite Barber, and Peggy Doub haven't gotten that far yet, but they have their eyes on the altar and their hearts — somewhere else. . As our high school years draw near the close and this page in our life’s story will soon pass forever, we set our sights on the completion of our beautiful yearbook, “YE OLDE TOWNE CRIER”, and our gradu- ation. We have sweated over our magazine selling campaigns and those wonderful chicken pie suppers, and now are ready to reap the results of our labor. The Drama Festival at Salem College attracted tie attention of the seniors and we won an award for lighting, staging, and directing for a one-act play entitled “Sanctuary.” Faye, Ginger, Barbara and Peggy Doub took part. There are other things which will always hold a fond place in our memory — the senior play, “Mr. Barry’s Etchings”, graduation, one of the most beautiful Junior-Senior banquets we have ever seen, and once again occupying the front row in assembly. This does not seem like much, but to a senior it means you have reached a peak in school life. Our inspiration and guidance through this year has come from none other tnan Mrs. Paul Newman, our senior sponsor, to whom we are forever grateful and eternally indebted, and to Mr. Robert L. Blevins, our principal, whose cheerful countenance and friend iness has inspired us to greater heights. Now that our senior year is over and past, we will go our separate ways, but in our hearts we will al- ways have a large spot for our dear alma mater, O'd Town School.

Section 2 To the juniors we bequeath our beloved room, and the robes which we hope they can use to the best advantage.

To the freshmen we leave the many good times we had. ARTICLE II Section 1 — Individual Bequests 1. Kyle Fulk leaves his keen wit and his fertile imagination to Roger Arrington.

Almost midnight! That literature test really beat me today. That TV screen is beginning to float round and round and round . . . Oh! a new program. It seems another big restaurant is being opened by that famous restaurant owner, Gene Doub, and the grand opening is being televised. There’s Gene now, all decked out in white tie and tails. Boy! this place really makes Staley’s look like a dump! Shh, the program’s starting.” . . Well, Gene’s saying something, but | can’t understand a word. | knew he should have quit that silly way of speaking; now he can’t talk any other way. There’s a nice looking man over at the front table. It’s Bob Allen, the millionaire horseman! Who would have thought he’d make all those millions messing with those old horses. Get a load of that good looking dish with him, it’s Babs Blakley, the famous Towers model! Over there at that corner table — those two young ladies in uniform. Gene’s going over to talk to them now. This I’ve got to hear. “| tan't beweve my eyeths! Ith’s Ann Nick and Mickey, isthn’t it?” “Yep, Gene, sure is.” “Well, | sthee you two are Uncle Stham’s wittle girlsth now — and you are sthmaller than the lasth time | sthaw you! much do you weigh now, Ann?” “One hundred and twenty-five, without my glasses, Gene.” Gosh! if that’s Annette and me sitting over there eating chocolate nut sundaes and overhanging our chairs, | think maybe we'd better join the WAF. | see Ginger, Betty, and Carolyn are here together. They must have left their husbands at home to baby sit. Well, look who's serving refreshments for Gene’s big opening! Peggy Doub! She always was a good waitress at our chicken pie suppers. | see Buddy and Kyle, the big time comedians, are going to entertain with a few of their gags. We've probably heard them ages ago, so won’t stop to listen. Elizabeth, Ann, and Evelyn certainly are smart and they got their wonderful secretarial jobs in Wash- ington. So Vallie is now happily married. I’m so glad, that was her one ambition way back in 1952. Whoops! something just happened. It’s poor Larry Sharpe — he fell backward in his chair, but | see that Dr. Eleanor Sigmon has gone to the rescue and everything is going to be all right. | thought Larry would have learned better than to lean back so far in his chair after all those falls in bookkeeping. | see Charlie Sapp made it to the grand opening, even if he is a hard working ole married man. He’s talking to the well-known Professor Edward Nicholson of Duke University. Jack Medlin, the prominent produce dealer, is talking football with the All-American football player, Grady Clifton. | guess Jack has given up playing football since his business became so successful. He also looks like he might have been eating a little produce himself. | see Bob Brewer and Doug Crater have their noses together talking. Heaven only knows what those two are gabbing about! Those two handsome ladies who just came in are Joanne Dull and Dotty Phillips. | hear Joanne is Director of Religious Education at Mount Tabor now, and Dotty is Dean of Women at Wake Forest College. | must be going batty, it seems | keep hearing somebody singing “O Promise Me”. It’s a lovely voice — sounds like the opera star, Loritta Neeam (when | went to school with her, she was just plain old Lorena Needham). | believe Gene is getting ready to close, but all | can understand is that we’re all welcome at Doub Inn anytime. Yipes, I’m freezing! | should have known better than to be the first one asleep at a pajama party. | guess I‘ll suffer the consequences (cold water), and stand by the fire all night to dry. So long, now!

The Student Council is an organization set up for the purpose of giving the students a part n running their school. It is composed of students elected by their classmates from each re- spective class from the eighth through the twelfth grades. The Council this year has endeavored to be as active as possible and so has undertaken many projects. The first of its major projects was working out an improved method of running the lunch line. Then the Council undertook to acquire playground equipment for the use of high school students. Having accomplished this, they undertook a project of arranging better and more varied chapel programs for the student body. The Council sent three representatives to the North Carolina Central District Student Council Congress held in High Point in April. They hope to complete the year’s work by making neces- sary revisions in their constitution.

The services that the organization has rendered have been in an effort to carry out their motto. These services have included the redecoration of the “nurses room” and the giving of their time freely for many private banquets and social gatherings. Members of the group attended the Future Homemakers annual convention held in Raleigh in March. The association has many plans for the future. ehifpiele iC ike First row: Phyllis Stoltz, Mary Snell, Katie Weaver, Carol Dillon, Nancy Conrad.

Under the management of Mrs. Dull and a capable staft of assistants, the cafeteria provides well-balanced, attractive lunches. Also, the cafeteria has been the scene of many joyous occasions, as it provides an ideal place for dances and other social events. � ™ SHS (A @ORE IRAHiSy OuK YF Our school was founded in 1924 with the help of benefits received from Mrs. R. J. Reynolds. The school at the time of its establishment was a combined elementary and high school, as it is today, but the enrollment was much smaller than is the present enrollment. The faculty has increased con- siderably since the beginning years of the school, being now almost double its original number. The school building itself has, also, with the years been expanded. To begin with there were only about half of the classrooms which we now have. Just last year there were four new elementary rooms added, a new science laboratory, a new home economics room, a new library, a new cafeteria, and an industrial arts building. Each year our enrollment increases, and with it our ambition to continue growing in other ways equally important. The school, since its beginning, has been under the leadership of three men. The first head was Mr. J. O. Rogers, who was principal for seven years. Follow- ing Mr. Rogers, came the principal that we all knew and loved, Mr. E. K. McNew. Mr. McNew served us until his death this year, when he was succeeded by our present principal, Mr. Robert L. Blevins. Always looking to the future, we are sure that Old Town High School will continue under the same principles and ideals as have brought it to prominence in past years. St Compliments ot OLD TOWN P.T.
