BEACON DEDICATION In appreciation of one, who in a few short months has endeared himself to us, we, the Senior Class dedicate this 1955 edition of “The Beacon. ’ ’ As we leave our Alma Mater may we carry with us a bit of the hon¬ esty and integrity which dominates the personality of our own Mr. Stew¬ art A . Wessells. OUR PRINCIPAL Mr. Chadderdon has been our faith¬ ful and efficient advisor for ten years. At times our success was doubtful, but with his encourage¬ ment and untiring efforts we were able to attain our goals. The Class of 1955 extends to him its gratitude and appreciation for his under stand¬ ing and for making our school life not only a profitable, but also a very happy experience. ‘ H W. E.

To you, the faculty, we will the respect and consideration which we some¬ times neglected to show. Best of luck. Teachers. To the Juniors, we will our ability to misbehave, skip classes, be tardy, and antagonize the teachers, if they think they can get by with it. SECTION II Parks Nicolls leaves his athletic ability to Franklin Gladding. C. M. Williams leaves his love line to Jackie Murray with the hope that it will never grow stale. Johnny Van Kesteren leaves his ability to wreck cars to Nathan Davis. Dolly Taylor wills to Lucia Belote her formula for catching and holding a man. Johnny Jones leaves his singing ability to George Coard, provided he sings, “Count Your Blessings,” at least once a day. Dixie Evans leaves to sister Nancy her typing ability, provided she lets the poor old typewriter cool off once in awhile. Gloria Scott leaves her good looks to Pat Davis, provided she uses it in the right way. Mary Thom regretfully leaves her blushing ways to Lou Hill. You know, they have been in her possession several years. Frankie Scott and Jimmy Johnson leave their extra weight to Warren Stotz, to be distributed wherever it will do the most good. Lillian Smith leaves to Barbara Williams her skill in bringing Mrs. Senn water twice a day. We don’t want Mrs. Senn to be thirsty. Joanne Smith leaves her long blonde hair to Maybelle Spence, since her hair is so short. Shirley Wharton leaves her wagging tongue to Joan Cherrix, provided she limits it to only 350 words a minute. Dorothy Johnson leaves her studying ability to Donnie Sparrow. Use it wisely, Don. Jack Dorsch leaves his ability to drive all the teachers nuts to the very capable Bobby Barnes. Frankie Harrison leaves his excess height to Nathan Davis. Since these inches aren’t needed, they can be passed on to the next most deserving member of the class of ’56. Hiram Hill leaves his abundant supply of grades of A, which he has collected during the past years, to Tommy Evans. Since Tommy doesn’t need them, they can be passed on to other fellow students. Sandra Kilmon leaves her ability to be the biggest flirt in school to Sharon Fosque, who is in second place as it is. Tommy Johnson leaves his ability to kill four ducks a day at the Mill Pond to Buddy Evans. Charlie Blackwell leaves his abundant supply of chewing gum to Larry Brown. Joe Hendrickson leaves his football ability to Johnny Williams, provided he gets some award for it. Nancy Wagner leaves her New Jersey accent to Shirley Ennis. Tommy Savage and Marvin Nuttall leave their curly hair to Jimmy Taylor. Keep every curl in place, Jimmy. Walker Harmon leaves his dancing ability to Sammy Belote. Hope Johnson leaves her shorthand ability to Ann Parker. Mary Shrieves leaves her quiet ways to Peggy Dize. Peggy Elmore leaves her winning smile to Eloise Shrieves. Annie Custis leaves her long fingernails to sister Betty, provided she manicures them once a week. Peggy Johnson leaves to Carolyn Watkinson her commercial ability. Jo Ann Small leaves to Joanne Young her big brown eyes, provided she uses them at the right time. Philip Martin and Curtis Henley leave their way with the girls to David White. In Witness Whereof, we have hereunto subscribed our name and affixed our seal, the third day of March, in the year of our Lord, Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-Five. Class of ’55 Jo Ann Small Jack Dorsch Testators CLASS PROPHECY I was closing my office at the Welfare Agency a bit early today, when who should walk up and surprise me, but Joe Hendrickson, one of my old classmates who is now chief engineer at Dupont. Joe asked me why I was leaving the office early. I told him I was on my way to catch the boat to the Old Eastern Shore for a class reunion at Onancock High School. Joe says, “What a coincidence, that’s just where I’m going so what do you say, let’s go to¬ gether?’’ Joe and I were talking about how fast the ten years had passed since graduation when two of our old classmates, Mrs. Joe East, nee Dixie Evans, and Nancy Wagner, the T. V. star, came on the boat. As we arrived at old O. H. S., we were met by General Curtis Henley of the Air Force. We stopped to chat a bit when Peggy Elmore, Hope Johnson and Shirley Wharton, who are now private secretaries in New York walked in. The party was just getting in full swing when basketball player Charlie Blackwell and football stars Tom Savage and Marvin Nuttall made their entrance. Behind them came the new manager of the New York Yankees, Walker Harmon. Our pharmacist. Miss Dolly Taylor, and Dr. C. M. Williams arrived together and from our telephone operators, Annie Custis and Mary Shrieves, we learned that they are doing a pretty good business. Now whom should we bump into next, but Jo Ann Small, air line hostess for T. W. A. As we talked, she told us that Gloria Scott and Gerald Davis are happily married. Also, Joanne Smith finally hooked her Oak Hall boy. All of a sudden, we heard laughing and talking in the hall, and of course, we knew the T. V. clown. Jack Dorsch was arriving. With him was the Home Economics teacher, Mary Thom Windsor. Jimmy Johnson, the World’s fastest typist, arrived with his cousin Mrs. Wessells, nee Peggy Johnson. As Joe and I were walking around we ran into the crooner Johnny Jones, who now has his own T. V. show. We asked him whatever happened to Hiram Hill and Frankie Harrison. He told us that Hiram was now head of the National Guard here in Onancock, and that Frankie Harrison owns the most exclusive hotel at Miami Beach, Florida. For musical entertainment we had Frankie Scott and his orchestra starring singer. Tommy Johnson. We found the Dorothy Johnson couldn’t be here tonight because of graduation ex¬ ercises at William and Mary where she teaches English. As Joe and I strolled over to get some punch, whom should we see, but chief tele¬ phone operator Lillian Smith and the new owner of Turlington’s drive-in at Melfa, Philip Martin. It was getting late and the party was beginning to break up. All the class was now accounted for except Parks Nicolls and Johnny Van Kesteren, but then as we were all leaving a white Cadillac drove up. The chaffeur opened the door and whom should we see, but the two millionaires. Parks and Johnny. The party was a great success. Joe and I are now on the ferry going back to our homes in Norfolk. Our class reunion of “65“ will long be one of our fondest memories. Sandra Kilmon Joe Hendrickson GLORIA SCOTT Prettiest Most Popular Best Athlete Best Dancer Best Personality I C. M.
