DRAMA 62, an original presentation, pro- duced by the school board, directed by the principal, advised technically by the faculty, and starring a cast of five hundred eighty-one students, is about to begin. Park View High School, located just outside South Hill, Virginia, is the setting for this absorbing drama. Shakespeare has said that the world is a stage and that each must play a part. Few people think of themselves as actors or actresses, but in reality, life itself is a drama. Great productions are merely ex- cerpts from life which capture the romance, heartbreak, and happiness of daily living. Similarly, P ar k Vi ew High School is a stage; each teacher, stu- dent, and person concerned with its maintenance plays his part in the unrehearsed episodes that develop as a result of the desire to learn and grow in a land of freedom. The plot of DRAMA 62 depicts the memorable activities which take place at Park View during the school year 1961-1962. As the story un- folds, the mood changes from mo- ments of serious study to interludes of happy festivity. Action, excite- ment, and suspense combine to pre- sent a drama so intriguing and com- plete that the memories of this school year will remain as fresh and close as the leaves of this book. Drama Is Staged At Park View. Alma Mater Park View High School we love dearly, In our work and play, And we ' ll strive to make her better. More and more each day. With our teachers and our rules. And our principal, and school. We will have a better band. To make our school more strongly stand. Park View High School, located three miles south of South Hill, Virginia, was built in 1955. Soon after its opening, it was admitted to the Southern Association of Col- leges and Secondary Schools. It was thor- oughly evaluated in March, 1957, and re- ceived a certificate of accreditation from the State Department of Education which it has kept ever since. In its five year history, Park View has become a strong force in the community. Park View High School is the location for the production of DRAMA ' 62. In its corridors and rooms the actual drama takes place. If the walls could speak, they could tell of the part that Park View has played in the lives of hundreds of high school students. The story of the joys, sorrows, successes, and failures of five hundred eighty-one of these students forms the plot of DRAMA ' 62. This drama can best be appreciated by the students at Park View whose roles in this drama will aid them in greater roles in the theater of life. 4 Drama ’62 Is ABLY DIRECTED Success, in every production, depends upon the guidance, training, and talent of its director and technical advisers. Only under the direction of these skilled personnel is the cast able to give atop notch performance. DRAMA ' 62 is very fortunate in having a most highly trained and capable director, Mr. Charles Henry Morgan. Mr. Morgan, known to most people as the principal of Park View High School, directs and organ- izes the intriguing activities and events which compose DRAMA ' 62. He is also re- sponsible for his cast of students which he strives to help in every way. Thirty faculty members compose the staff of well qualified technical advisors. Their job is to teach the cast of pupils val- uable and necessary facts which will form a general storehouse of knowledge necessary for the successful completion of DRAMA ' 62, and also necessary for any further attempts in other roles of life ' s production. 5 School Board Members Head Production Here are the reliable producers of DRAMA ' 62, the Mecklenburg County School Board. Decisions and regulations made by the school board deal with the maintenance of public free schools in the county, curri- culum opportunities, personnel, and budget. School board members are appointed for a term of four years by the School Trustee Electoral Board. There is one representative from each school district in the county. School board meetings are held monthly in Boydton in order to discuss problems which occur during the course of the year ' s production. Members of the School Board pause during a regular monthly meeting. SEATED, Front Row: Mr, R. P. Gordon, Mrs. Virginia Jeffreys, clerk of the school board; Mr. R. D. Cook, Mr. P. N. Winn.

You have played your role and said your lines, so you must leave the stage to others. You will soon appear on another stage- one that is bigger, harder, and tougher. The degree of your success on that stage will be determined, to a great extent, by the manner in which you have played your part on the stage of high school life. Your scholastic record and other achievements alone will not measure your success in life, but your very attitude toward your fellow students and teachers and your reaction toward authority and - discipline go into the ingredients from which your character is molded. It is not the score, but how you play the game that counts. Shakespeare, the great student of life, speaking through Hamlet, instructs the actors who are to perform before the king thus: Acquire a temperance . . . Let dis- cretion be your tutor. Suit the action to the word, the word to the action. Overstep not modesty of nature. Let discretion be your tutor . . . Go, make you ready! At the last assembly, seniors rise and face the student body for the final time. As they prepare to leave the high school stage, they are faced with the larger chal- lenge that graduation brings. FRONT ROW: Bobby Taylor, Billy Taylor, Herbert Lee Mills, Larry Perk- inson, David Strickler. 2nd ROW: John O. Cook, Raye Hines, Emmett Williams, Eddie Lewis, Ernest Wray, Charles Jones, Steve Hines. 3rd ROW: Nell Robertson, Nancy Cassada, Jean Bullock, Betsy Taylor, Dian Boddie. 12 Drama 62 Is WELL CAST DRAMA ' 62, starring the eighty-four graduating seniors, features a cast of five hundred eighty-one students. This cast ranges in talent and experience from vet- eran actors and actresses with four pre- vious years of experience at Park View to the fresh, new talent enrolled in September. The eighty-four seniors have played in four other Park View dramas; therefore, they have earned their leading roles through much hard work and training. DRAMA ' 62 co-stars the one hundred ten juniors, who are already beginning to make important decisions regarding the de- velopment of their careers in the future. The one hundred thirty-two sopho- mores, with two years of experience behind them, also have substantial parts in the performance. The freshmen are just beginning to es- tablish themselves; while the eighth graders, who have the bit parts are working hard as they begin their climb up the ladder of accomplishment. To show their individuality and impor- tance, each student is pictured separately. However, although each class is a separate unit, and each person is an individual, when it comes to loyalty to Park View, it is one for all and all for Park View. At a ballgame or pep rally, the eighth graders, the seniors, the juniors, the sophomores, and the fresh- men join in to cheer the green and white to victory, and, side by side, they stand to sing Park View High School we love dearly . . . Seniors Play Leading Roles The stars of DRAMA 62, the eighty four graduating seniors, take the final cur- tain call of their high school careers. The Seniors choose Jimmy Weaver to lead them as class president. Mrs. Cli- borne, Mrs. McBride, Mrs. Osbourne, and Mrs. Watson serve as class sponsors. Seniors find their last year filled with activity and preparations for the future. They plow through the College Board Exams in South Boston and participate in Career Day. To raise money, the class sponsors numerous money-maldng projects. Among them are the sale of sweatshirts, jackets, and pins, and the Sadie Hawkin ' s Dance. The Class of 62 enjoys presenting their Senior Play, Lock, Stock, and Lipstick, and they with their dates spend a delightful evening at the Peppermint Lounge on the night of the Junior-Senior Prom. Outstanding seniors represent and serve the entire student body. Carolyn Thompson reigns as Homecoming Queen; Page Taylor is crowned Miss Yearbook ; and Betsy Page Taylor becomes Miss Future Teacher . Bobby Crowder presides as S.C. A. president, and Betty Boswell edits THE LEAVES OF MEMORY. Marvin Crutchfield is elected most valuable football player, and is elected to All-district foot- ball, baseball, and basketball teams. The last few weeks are crowded with picnics, last minute tests, and Commence- ment practices. The top students scholas- tically speak on behalf of the senior class at the Graduation Exercises. Betty Boswell is Valedictorian and Wayne Wright and Beth Hylton are the Salutatorians. Graduation brings mixed emotions of accomplishment and sad farewells for sen- iors as the curtain closes on their happy high school days. They are now ready to face the new challenge of greater roles in the theater of life. Some will go to work immediately; while others will further their education in college.

Today’s Co-Stars Will Star Tomorrow The Class of ' 63, co-starring in DRA- MA ' 62, will long remember their junior year as one filled with activity. Class elections are held in September and out of this contest Teddy O ' Toole emerges as class president. Junior spon- sors are Mrs. Marie Tucker, Mrs. Annie McLean, Mrs. Beth Cobb, and Mrs. Mildred Moseley. During the year, the juniors continue their scholastic work on a higher level and begin earnest, definite plans for the future. College bound students enter the Merit Scholarship Contest, and many juniors take the College Board Examinations for early acceptance decisions. Juniors participate actively in all sports and in cheerleading. Teddy O ' Toole is elected to the All-District basketball team, and Benny Evans is tri-captain of the football team. Junior girls exercise their sports ' ability on the Girls ' Basketball team. The three starting forwards are juniors. In February, the juniors receive their long-awaited class rings. The following junior officers are leading their class as they draw near to the top rung in their high school ladder: Teddy O ' Toole, president; Patricia Nolen, From an approved list of candidates, the junior class elects twelve boys and girls to attend Girls ' State at Radford College and Boys ' State at V.P.I.

Freshman Continue Preparation For Stardom In September, 1961, the Class of ' 65 receives its first formal title of Fresh- men.” The election of class officers is the first duty they perform as a class. Repre- sentatives from each homeroom remain after school to nominate a slate of officers. The next day the entire class nominates additional candidates and elects their officers by secret ballot. They choose Kirk Hamlet to lead them as class president. Members of the Freshman Class enjoy the athletic phase of school life as they par- ticipate on Junior Varsity and Varsity teams. They gain valuable skills and experience which will enable them to become the first string starters in the future. To quote one of the Freshman athletes, We may not be stars, but there is no procrastination in our determination. During the course of the year, the Fresh- men are introduced to many new and challeng- ing courses of study. College bound students engage in their preparatory courses which include Latin, Biology, Algebra, English, Freshmen officers study their script: Kirk Hamlet, president; Willie Cole, vice-president; Jean Pegram, and other electives. In their English classes, they meet David Copperfield who is a familiar figure in every Freshman English class. All the Freshmen who wish to enter college are advised to take a vocational test. The Freshmen use their previous year of high school experience to enable them to play larger roles in DRAMA ' 62. They assist the new eighth graders and begin to voice their opinions through the S.C.A. and the various clubs. The Freshmen observe Saint Patrick ' s Day with a memorable class party. Green and white streamers and shamrocks trans- form the cafeteria into an Irish land of magic and little people. To liven up the party, a twist contest is held with Mr. and Mrs. Wil- son Bowers and Mr. and Mrs. W.B. Martin serving as the judges. Carolyn Estes and Jim Bryson are named champion twisters. Freshmen sponsors who guide the class in their activities are Miss Rebekah Crouch, Mrs. Ruth Martin, Mrs. Polly Butts, and Mr. Jimmie Brooks. secretary; Donald Bell, treasurer; Ann Thomas Gill, reporter. 40 Freshmen Walter Allgood Wayne Allgood Sylvia Andrews Phil Arrington Pat Ashworth Verna Atkins Bernice Baird Donald Bell Leon Binford Mary Bowen Bonney Sheila Bougess Davy Bowers Frankie Bowers Judy Carter Clyde Crowder Pat Bracey Lewis Chandler Gilda Crowder Jim Bryson Linda Chandler Merlin Crowe Frances Burdge Willie Cole Billy Crutch- field Jimmy Butts Linda Creedle Christine Crutchfield Jo Ann Cage Randy Crocker Gloria Crutch- field Carolyn Cumbia Dennis Edmonds Ann Thomas Gill Jimmy Curtis Charles Elders Sylvia Gill Edna Dawson Edward Ellis Sadie Griffin Jerry Duffey Carolyn Estes Ruth Griggs Betty Dunn Wilson Ezell Patsy Hale Foy Edmund Faye George Patrica Hamby Freshmen Kirk Hamlet Johnny Hankley Joe Harris Shirley Hendricks Billy Hite Carson Hostetter Mary Alice Hostetter Mike Hough Joe Inge Glenn Johnson William Jones James Kidd Class of 1 965 Blair Kinker Lyle Lacy Harry Larch Terry Larch Arlene Legge Sara Jane Leggett Malcolm Leonard Jerry Lynn Jimmy Lynn Sandra Martin Betty Matthews Carol Matthews Dickie Mayton Gloria Moody Margaret New- man Sylvia Medlin Marshall Raye Moody Vicky Newman Eric Millirons Billy Morefield Linda Nichols Carol Mills Bonita Morris Allen Parrish David Mills Tommy Moseley Agnes Parrott Betty Moody Jimmy Mumford Bunny Paulette Lewis Paynter Butch Reed Naomi Smith Lois Paynter Joyce Reese Wayne Spake Tommy Peebles Margie Robinson S tella Spraggins Jean Pegram Jimmy Smelley Billy Stell J.C.

Eighth Grade Supplies New Talent With the opening of school in September, 1961, comes a crowd of smiling new faces. These are the eighth graders- Class of 1966. They, having been welcomed by the older students, proceed to learn all about life in high school as they play their small, but important roles in DRAMA ' 62. There are many adjustments to be made, such as chang- ing classes and battling a way through the crowded halls. During the first few weeks many references are made to the Park View handbook which contains valuable information on all rules and regulations as well as a handy map of the school. Spencer Crowder is elected to serve as class president. Meeting all the upper class- men and fellow eighth graders fills many moments of the first year. As the year wears on, many of the eighth graders take part in the school ' s activities. Eighth graders enter Park View for the first time opening new doors of learning and opportunity. Class officers: Spencers Crowder, president; Wilson Thomp- Eighth graders participate in Junior Varsity football and basketball while the J.V. Cheer- leaders give them lusty support. The class has two lovely Homecoming representatives, Connie Kelly and Linda Reeson. The highlight of the eighth grade year is a class party. Assisted by the eighth grade sponsors. Miss Greeson, Mrs. Bennett, Mrs. Bonney, Mrs. Whitten, and Mr. Houk, the entire class works many hours on the various committees carrying out, in detail, the theme, Valentine ' s Day. A King of Hearts, Wilson Thompson, and a Queen of Hearts, Brenda Martin, are chosen to reign over the festivi- ties. As the year comes to a close, an older and wiser crowd of smiling faces eagerly await the coming of another September when they, as upperclassmen, can welcome the incoming eighth grade. son, vice-president; Not pictured: Betty Jean Estes, secretary; Hunt Holmes, reporter; Linda Reeson, treasurer. 46 Eighth Grade Ruth Allgood Gloria Arrington Betsy Atkins Judy Baird Wallace Beck Brenda Bell Alice Binford Sandra Binford Allen Bing R.L.

After transforming the cafeteria into a lovely land of hearts and flowers, the eighth graders enjoy dancing with their partners as this night to re- member passes all too quickly. Once A Day, Every Day — It’s Lunch Time! It is a well-known fact to the students of Park View that studying makes one very hungry. So, when the 11:50 A.M. bell rings, the mad rush to the cafeteria begins. Lunch is served in three shifts, until 1:10 P.M. During this time, the appetites of over five hundred students are satisfied by the good food that is served by an ever- smiling cafeteria staff. Park View ' s cafeteria is staffed by, from left to right: Mrs. Mae Mewborn, Mrs. Louise Raines, Mrs. Light conversation and happy laughter fill the dining room as the students enjoy their delicious hot lunches. A complete, well-balanced meal with all the necessary vitamins and proteins is served piping hot every day. Thelma Smith, Mrs. Nell Cobb, and Mrs. Edith Nance who is not pictured. Much of the food is supplied by the government which helps to keep the minimum cost down to twenty- five cents per lunch. All in all, the hot-lunch program is one of Park View ' s greatest assets. 52 A Drama ’62 Is SERIOUS Learning, studying, and preparing for the future are the dominent themes of DRAMA ' 62. Although learning is essential- ly a serious endeavor, the students at Park View accompany this mood of their drama with many emotions. Tenseness and sus- pense face unwanted tests; bursts of humor find their way into even the dullest dis- cussions; excitement greets new dis- coveries; curiosity triggers the imagination; and a feeling of pride rewards those who do their best. The cast of students have rich edu- cational opportunities at their fingertips. Each student must decide which course is right for him according to his abilities, interests, and future plans. Seven courses of study are offered at Park View. These are the collegiate scien- tific, collegiate liberal arts, commercial stenographic, commercial clerical, and gen- eral with the major emphasis on agriculture, home economics, or industrial arts. 53 English Is Essential In Every Student’s As Mrs. Butts reads a chapter from DAVID COPPERFIELD to her ninth grade English class, she sees another group of students cringe as they sense the sting of the horrible Mr. Creakle ' s cane and hate the cruelty of Mr. Murdstone. In connection with their study of David Copperfield, the students prepare an attractive bulletin board illustrating their favorite scenes. Mrs. Moseley watches as Brenda Martin, Dora Wal- ker, Kathryn Jones, C.W. Gee, and Judy Thomas ex- plain their diagrams to the class. This structural illustration of word relationships is used to aid the students when they study the parts of speech in grammar. 54 Search For Self Expression And Communication. Mrs. Sarah McBride teaches sections of junior and senior English. She prepares the college bound seniors for their roles in higher learning by exposing them to the hard work and discipline required to meet the challenge of a college curriculum. In studying the development of English literature from Beowulf to Gunga Din, the seniors learn of their price- less heritage. After studying word usage and sentence structure, they learn to express themselves through writing poetry, paragraphs, short stories, and research themes. Mondays are spent in the library reading books to be reported on in class. Reports are designated to be oral, written, illustrated, or dressed. On the day of the dress book reports, famous characters live again and participate in an assembly program to which the parents are invited. Blood thirsty Blackboard from TALES FROM THE HIGH SEAS by A.E. Hogeboom is repre- sented by Buddy Fuller.

Mathematics Becomes The Queen Of The Mathematics has rightly been called The Queen of the Sciences . Here at Park View, students increase their knowledge through advanced mathematics. The courses in mathematics include general math, alge- bra, plane geometry, solid geometry, and trigonometry. Math 8 and 9 are concerned with the fundamental principles of addition, sub- traction, multiplication, and division. These classes are taught by Mr. David Houk. Algebra I and Algebra II teach students to use their previously gained knowledge of mathematics in setting up equations and solving problems with one, two, or more Walter Allgood and Carson Hostetter explain a Pytha- gorean Pushcart to Mr. Houk ' s Math 8 class.

FIRST ROW: Mrs. Wells, Judy Kidd, Barbara Orr, Judy Baird, Phillip Upton, Ann King, Pat Moody, San- dra Binford, Alice Dawson, Billy Smiley, Christine Sadler, Sherry Welker, Betty Young. The Science Department offers courses to students in all grades. The eighth and ninth graders study general science, taught by Mrs. Wells, Mrs. Martin, and Mr. Cobb. This course covers briefly all the phases of physical and biological sciences. As the pupils study the various units of the book concerning geology, weather, plant- life, etc., they give class reports and carry out many projects such as a series of basic experiments in an introduction to chemistry. Eighth and ninth grade general science courses serve as the foundation in the tower of scientific learning of high school students. Biology is the most popular course These happy students of biology listen attentively as Miss Greeson delivers a lecture on bones: John Carter, R.C. Creedle, Herbert Kinker, J.C. Powers, taken by students to fill their quota of science courses for graduation. It is taught by Miss Greeson and Mr. Allen. This is a more advanced study of science in which the stu- dents learn about animal and plant life. Another very important phase of biology is the study of the human body. During the year, the students prepare themes, posters, and other projects in relation to their studies. Various means of teaching are employed during the year, such as, lectures, observations of preserved specimens, and dissection. All in all, it is a highly interest- ing and rewarding course.

FRONT TABLE: Mike Hauenstein, Charles Reese, Larry King, Billy Taylor, Billy Kinker, Kennth Wright, Harvey Powers, Billy Mountcastle, Mike Welker. Chemistry and physics, the advanced courses in the science curriculum, are taught by Mrs. Wells and Mr. Cobb. These courses are the basis of college science and the majority of the students who take them plan to go on to college. While studying chemistry, pupils learn many things that are useful in everyday life. For instance, in the unit on petroleum, a section was devoted to anti-knock gasoline. They also learn how to conduct experiments safely and more effectively as they do re- search to see for themselves many of the wonders of science. In the physics class, the students per- form experiments as they study electricity, gravity, magnetism, light, sound, and other related topics. While studying electricity, the class took a trip to Roanoke Rapids, N.C. to tour the electric-power plant there. The students are greatly benefited as they see first-hand many of the things they have studied. There is great opportunity presented in the science department, and the students, keenly aware of the everchanging modern world, endeavor to take full advantage of it. Marvin Crutchfield, Jimmy Weaver, Tinker Montague, Alvin Sirrocco, Maurice Shelton, Bobby Crowder, Tommy Stanley, Billy Taylor, Steve Hines, and Larry Perkinson help Mr. Cobb perform an experiment in the demon- stration of Ohm ' s Law. On the blackboard is a diagram explaining this law and experiment. Reading Is To The Mind What Miss Hatch, the busy librarian, is always ready to help anyone who needs her assistance. Here, Gladys Ezell and Jean Gill lend her a helping hand. In the library, stu- dents gather information, study in quiet, or read for their own enjoyment. Many types of resource materials are available to the students. Several sets of modern encyclopedias, readers ' guides, alma- nacs, magazines, refer- ence books on almost every subject, and the card catalog aid the stu- dents in their quest for knowledge. As students read for pleasure, they find all types of magazines, and hundreds of fiction and nonfiction works to de- light them. Paper back classics are becoming very popular and are on sale in the library. Students use the library during their study halls and with their Eng- lish classes. Mrs. McBride ' s sixth period English class is having their regular weekly reading period. Each week, one day is set aside for every English class to use the facilities of the library. This period may be used to do research for themes and special assignments, or for reading books, mag azines, or newspapers. 62 Exercise Is To The Body One, Two!

These exercises The Physical Education Department is composed of two divisions, girls ' physical education and boys ' physical education. These two divisions are under the instruction of Mrs. Estelle Lumpkin, Mr. Harold Wise, and Mr. Leo Allen. In physical education classes, students play team games such as football, basket- ball, baseball, softball, and volleyball. Body conditioning exercises, endurance tests, and rhymical activities are also essential in the Martha Blair Kimball and Susan Hankley jump for possession of the ball as their teammates stand ready to receive the tap. Basketball is a favorite sport for development of physical fitness. The emphasis in this department is placed not only on skill in playing the games, but also on the habits and attitudes exhibited which will promote the wholesome use of leisure time. Courses in personal health, driver edu- cation, and first aid are taught during the physical education classroom periods each week. these girls who are members of Mrs. Lumpkin ' s fifth period physical education class. 63 Art And Music Add Color And Mrs. Watson explains how the glaze is to be removed from the bottom of the ceramics as they are put into the kiln.

Sixteen eighth grade girls who are quite interested in music compose the Girls ' Glee Club. These girls meet every day in their vocal music class to study music from the various periods in history and some of the works of world famous composers. They perform for various school functions and take part in the spring concert. I Enjoy Being a Girl and the Little Drvimmer Boy are two of their most popular numbers. Students in the fourth period study hall, who wish to do so, participate in the Choral Club. They meet twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays during their study hall period. They gain experience in work- ing on some of the difficult works written for choirs. In the concert they join with the Mixed Chorus to sing such favorites as Bali Ha ' i and Climb every Mountain.

Mrs. Marie Tucker teaches typing and transcription; Mrs. Betn Cobb instructs typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping; and Mr. Mac Wilson teaches office practice, business math, and general business. In a typical business course, a student learns how to work math problems, keep books, take dictation at approximately eighty to one hundred words a minute, tran- scribe this dictation, and set up a business letter on the typewriter. Students are taught how to apply for a job, how to dress for the interview, how to act in a business office, correct public relations, and the use of the typewriter. Mr. Wilson is teaching his General Business class the different types of business transactions. Today, they are talking about making payments and banking. FRONT: Shirley Seward. FRONT ROW: Ronald This course prepares the pupils for advanced college courses, or it readies them to begin their own jobs right after high school. In shorthand, the students learn symbols for every letter and many words in the English language. In transcription, they learn to improve their dictation speed and transcribe their notes into typewritten letters ready for mailing. Office practice gives the student a preview of the problems he will meet in a real office and experience so that he will be equipped to solve them. Facts and figures gained in the business department will aid the students in their personal business transactions no matter what type of career they might pursue.

Under the competent instruction of Mrs. Ruth Martin and Mrs. Frances Whitten, girls learn the arts of homemaking. A careful study of nutrition and ex- perimentation with rats accompany the study and practice of food preparation. Later, the girls study good grooming and care of clothing as well as learning how to sew. Childcare and development, consumer education, and home nursing are other essential topics covered by future home- makers. As they study in the well equipped department, the girls prepare attractive bulletin boards to illustrate their activi- ties, and they frequently make use of their library of reference material. Glenda Kidd, Betty Boswell, Gertie Reese, Sarah Newman, and Gloria Bullock feed the rats which are being used in an experiment to illustrate the effects of good and bad nutrition. As a class project, this senior home economics class redecorates the bed room. They are now making last minute adjustments to the new bedspread and the new curtains.

Journalism classes tour the town print- ing office each year, where they see the steps taken in the publication of the local paper. This F.H. A. display is only one of the many interesting exhibits that becomes news because of the observant journalism students. 70 The School Fair Exhibits Achievements Dolls dressed as characters from Julius Caesar, maps of the Roman Empire, projects picturing the Latin symbol, re- ports, and word trees represent the Latin classes. Each spring an inventory of the work accomplished during the school year is made. This appraisal is met through the presentation of the school fair. Mrs. Louise Osborne, as chairman of the fair, leads the preparation for the event. Students and teachers set up the display in one afternoon representing each student and department in school. Parents assemble in the evening to attend the regular meeting of the Parents ' , Teachers ' Association after which they view the fair exhibits. They begin their tour in the gymna- torium which serves as headquarters for the In the art room, drawings, dolls of plaster of paris, clay figures, soap carvings, paintings, murals, and mobiles display artistic talents. array.

Each club must meet the standard require- ment of serving a specific worthwhile pur- pose and must have a planned program for each meeting. A student may belong to two clubs other than the S.C.A. and the Beta Club. All stu- dents are members of the S.C. A., the Student Cooperative Association, while the Beta Club is composed of honor students and the Mono- gram Club contains students who possess outstanding athletic ability. The Latin Clubs, the Art Club, and the Choral Club further the interests created on their respective classes. The Future Teachers of America, The Future Homemakers of America, and the Future Farmers of America are clubs that strive to prepare their members for their roles in later life. The 4-H members pre- pare for the future, too, by stressing the proper development of their heads, hearts, hands, and health. Members of the Reviewer ' s Staff and the Annual Staff record the daily activities of classes, clubs, and students for future reference and enjoyment. 73 S.C.A. council members, representing the student body are as follows; FRONT ROW: Miss Marguerite Trimm, sponsor; Carol Walker, Betty Copley, Susan Hankley, Betty Boswell, Mary Cabell Estes, Mr. Hugh Elliot, sponsor. 2ND ROW: Betty Wright, Jane Gar- land, Marvin Crutchfield, Jimmy Butts, Johnny Hank- ley. 3RD ROW: Mr. M.

Every student at Park View is a mem- ber of the Student Cooperative Association; while the S.C.A. Council is composed of elected representatives from each class plus the S. C. A. officers. These repre- sentatives of the student body help to pro- mote good relationships between the stu- dents and the faculty. They encourage par- ticipation in all school functions, work to keep Park View clean and neat, and strive to develop good sportsmanship and school spirit in all school activities. S.C.A. members attend and participate in various S.C.A. meetings on the district and state level. A large delegation repre- sented the Park View S.C.A. at the annual district meeting in Kenbridge during which Mr. Mac Wilson, the sponsor, led a dis- cussion group. Mary Cabell Estes and Teddy O ' Toole received many new ideas at the State S.C.A. Convention at Radford College.

A meeting, which includes business and a program, is held each month. Members help with the routine work of the library and try to stimulate interest in read- ing among the students. Members become better acquainted with the services of the library, and through the practical work per- formed, are able to render a worth while service to their school. Students in the ninth through the twelfth grades may apply for membership by stating their reasons for desiring to join the club in a written application. After evaluating the applications, the librarian then selects the members. To remain in the club, a student must earn a required number of points by per- forming services such as working at the desk, writing overdue slips, shelving books, keeping the room in order, and promoting the observance of National Library Week.

Since there is no returning first string, every player works every minute during practice sessions. Because there is no hero, there is no friction on the teams, - cooperation is the password. The result . . . seasonal success in football, basketball, baseball, and a good job in track competition. In football, the Dragons pile up six victories against one defeat and two ties. With Marvin Crutchfield and Mike Martin leading the scoring, the Dragons ' hit and run offense baffles nearly everyone in the league. Benny Evans, Johnny Taylor, and Wade Crutchfield lead the giant line which averages about 165 pounds. Senior Wayne Wright capably handles center position, while Tinker Montague performs remark- ably at quarterback until he dislocates his knee. After losing their first two games in basketball, the Dragons settle down to win second place in the district, only to be de- feated in the semi-finals of the tournament by one point. Tri-captains, Beth Hylton, Carolyn Thompson, and Betsy Taylor lead the Dra- gonettes to a district record of six wins and four losses. Juniors Joyce Ann Duck- ett, Jane Garland, and Sara Nell McBride round out the offensive unit. The inexperienced baseball team continues the success streak by piling up a record of eight wins and two losses to end up in second place in the conference. Although Park View isn ' t totally suc- cessful in track competition, there are many bright spots. Individual specialists, Teddy O ' Toole in the high jump and Mike Martin and Harry Larch in the dash events, head the scoring list. The 880 relay team of Martin, Larch, Phaup, and Wright is also a consistent winner. O ' Toole and Larch win the right to compete in the State Track Meet. The fighting Dragons of Park View High School are as follows: FRONT ROW: Mike Welker, Mike Martin, Jackie Thomasson, Mike Hauenstein, Ronnie Moseley, Billy Mountcastle, Tommy Stanley, Wayne Wright, William Jackson, Charles Taylor, Benny Evans. 2ND ROW: Nelson Wright, Jimmy Whittemore, Carl Gude, Marvin Crutchfield, Randal Lafoon, Tinker Montague, John O.

Wise’s Rookies Capture Third Place In starting the season as underdogs, the Dragons of Park View prove to District III that size is not everything that is required to make a good football team. The light- weight, but pesty. Dragons finish the best season since 1958 with a 6-2-1 district re- cord. School spirit and dedicated leadership greatly assist the team. The first game with Blackstone ends in a 0-0 tie. However, the Dragons come through to win their second game against Victoria by a 34-0 margin. In the next three district games the Dragons add to their winning column. Park View ' s fifth triumph over Randolph Henry marks the high point of the season. A last minute pass interception sets up the winning touch- down for the Dragons. Dreams of becoming first place district champions are shattered by the 13-0 loss to Bluestone. However, recovering from this blow, the Dragons launch a final attack and conclude the season with a 27-12 victory over the Greenville Eagles. Under the experience and dedication of coach Harold Wise and assistant coach Leo Allen, tri- captains, Mar- vin Crutchfield, Monty Montague, and Benny Evans, lead the Dragons on to victory. 96 Scoreboard We They Blackstone 0 0 Victoria 34 0 Amelia 20 12 Crewe 7 6 Buckingham 32 0 Randolph Henry 14 13 Bluestone 0 13 Brunswick 6 6 Greenville 27 12 Action runs thick and fast during the course of Park View ' s annual Home- coming game.

District III After A Season Of Thrills Coach Harold Wise gives a bit of timely advice to co- captain Marvin Crutchfield during a time out from the action. Keeping the players and equipment in top condition is the job of team managers, Danny Keeling, Lyle Lacy, and Tommy Reekes. At the annual Football Banquet presented by the Park View Monogram Club, Mr. B. P. Lumpkin presents the Most- Valuable Player Award to Marvin Crutchfield. This honor is conferred upon Marvin by the vote of his fellow teammates.

After only twelve days of practice, the fresh team opens its season as it sustains a 33-6 loss to Blackstone. Wilson Thomp- son, a promising P.V. prospect, scores the lone touchdown on a 25 yard pass from Bunny Paulette . Park View J.V. ' s strike early for a touch- down in their next conflict. Charles Hubbard carries the pigskin to the Brunswick 30 on the opening kickoff, and Donald Bell scores a few plays later with Wilson Thompson making the conversion. However, the Bull- dogs outlast the Dragons as they come back in the second half to score 2 T D ' s to win. Bluestone ' s passing ability sets up the touchdowns which serve to defeat the P.V. junior varsity, which can ' t seem to get its offense rolling, by a score of 14-0. Donald Bell, leading grovmd gainer, and Charles Hubbard score 7 points each to down Crewe 14-12. Hubbard makes two key pass interceptions which insure victory. The performances in this concluding game of the season promise a good season next year. Scoreboard We They Blackstone 6 33 Brunswick 7 13 Blue stone 0 14 Crewe 14 12 J.V. boys watch as Coach R. E.

The co-captains hold cheer- ing practice and lead the group on every cheer- ing occasion. Go! Fight! Win!!” yell the cheerleaders as they cheer the Dragons on to victory and promote school spirit. The varsity cheering squad is composed of three sophomores, three juniors, and four seniors who are chosen in the spring of the year preceding the cheering season. They cheer as one group of ten for every football game, but they split into two groups of five each, taking turns to cheer at the basketball games. Besides cheering during football and bas- ketball season, the cheerleaders lead pep ral- lies, appear in the harvest festival parade, and attend the football banquet. Cheerleaders wear green and white pleated skirts and white sweaters, which boast a P.V. letter on the front, during football season. They sport new green vests to match their skirts for basketball season. Lucky girls on the cheering squad transmit their exuberance to the crowd and the rafters roar with the refrain, We ' re with you team, so Fight!

Coach R. E. Cobb has at his finger- tips a large supply of willing, hardworking boys who are eager to do their best through the long hours of practice as well as in every game. Wade Crutchfield, the ”big man on the team, is the dependable offensive player under the board and the season ' s high scorer. Dwight P haup ' s defensive abilities coupled with his follow up tallies make him a most valuable starter. Ronnie Moseley ' s accurate outside shooting and Jackie Thomasson ' s playmaking and driving layups are vital to the action. Woodford Daves is the team ' s ballhandler who also hits from outside. During the season Coach Cobb shifts his starters as much as possible giving the boys experience and preparation.

Johnny Taylor, Larry Smith, Charles Moseley, Ben Explosive Scoring, Man-To-Man Defense Make 12-3 Record Best In Park View’s History Larry Perkinson Co- captain Marvin Crutchfield Co- captain With senior co-captains, Marvin Crutchfield and Larry Perkin- son, leading the way, the Dragons take second place in the ' 62 Dis- trict in race. A vicious offensive attack plus a tight man-to- man defense prove to be key factors of victory in the most successful basketball season for P.V. in the school ' s history. The Dragons ' scoring punch comes via one of the most formid- able front lines in the district composed of 6 ' 1 Larry Perkinson; 6 ' 1 Teddy O ' Toole; and 6 ' 2 Charles Moseley. These three com- pile a total average of 40 points per game and virtually control the Dragons ' rebounding. Park View ' s little men, Marvin Crutch- field and Tommy Leggett, do the ball handling for the team besides averaging 10 points per game between them. In addition to their go, go offense, another important factor of the Dragons ' success is versatility. Perkinson plays the pivot for the ball- control team, and scores on short jump shots and re- bounds. O ' Toole combines hot outside shooting with his driving ability to keep the opponents ' defense on their toes. Moseley also works well both inside, outside, and on the rebounds. Crutchfield and Leggett, besides doing most of the play- making, both hit from outside and are adept on defense. Perkinson and Crutchfield are the only seniors on the team, so it might be said that this is a team of the future. Besides starting juniors, Moseley, O ' Toole, and Leggett; Johnny Taylor and Larry Smith, also see some action for the Dragons during the season. 103 A Quarter Final Tournament Win, a One Point Arms and legs, anybody! Larry Smith (30) jumps against Bluestone’ s Ronnie Ramsey as the Dragon ' s All District trio, O ' Toole (22), Perkin- son (12), and Crutchfield (24), look on. Back court aces Tommy Leggett (14) and Marvin Crutchfield (24) watch Larry Perkinson display his All- District, two handed rebounding form. Bluestone ' s Meter Davis (3) prepares to defend. Charles Moseley (10) battles for re- bound of Teddy O ' Toole ' s (22) shot in the 41-38 triumph over Blue- stone. Again it ' s the Dragon ' s Smith jump- ing, this time against the Barons ' Chick Dalton. Dragons, Crutch- field (24), O ' Toole (22), Perkinson (12), and Moseley (10), await the tap.

After losing their first two games by a total of only 7 points, the Green Wave gets the victory ball rolling with a 41-38 win over arch- rival Bluestone. After this, the Dragons lose only one more game during the season, a 4 point loss to the district champions, the Brunswick Bulldogs which comes despite a 21 point performance by Larry Perkinson. Later in the season, the Dragons defeat the previously unbeaten Bulldogs 66-56 behind the 20 point per- formance of Teddy O ' Toole. Charles Moseley tosses in 16 points in a key win over Blackstone late in the season; and two games later, back court aces, Marvin Crutchfield and Tommy Leggett team up for 21 points in a victory over high- riding Kenbridge. Behind the play of All- Tournament honor winners Perkinson and O ' Toole, the Dragons win their first game over Crewe 33-30. Having thus gained the semi-finals, they take on Kenbridge and lose by one point in the last eight seconds of the game. Thus Park View ' s most victorious season is terminated, but the Dragons ' 13-4 overall record will always live as a symbol of the ' 62 sports drama. All-District honor winners Teddy O’Toole, Larry Perkinson, and Marvin Crutchfield, get a few extra pointers from Coach Leo Allen. The Dragon total of three players on the All-Districtteam is the highest in the league. O ' Toole and Perkinson also receive All- Tournament honors. Dragons ' starting five: Teddy O ' Toole, Larry Perkinson, CO- captain; Charles Moseley. Kneeling: Tommy Leggett, Marvin Crutchfield, co- captain. All-tournament selection Teddy O ' Toole pulls down one of sixteen rebounds against Bluestone. Charles Moseley (10) lends a hand as Richard Burnette (21) closes in. 105 Dragonettes Go! Fight! And Win! To Dragonettes, KNEELING: Tri-captains, Betsy Taylor, Beth Hylton, Carolyn Thompson. STANDING: Joyce Nance, assistant manager; Joyce Ann Duckett, Janice Roberts, Courtney Adams, Betty Hamlin, Linda Crow- der, Betty JeanPuryear, Patricia Nolen, Mrs. Lump- kin, coach; Dian Boddie, Sadie Smiley, Sara Nell Mc- Bride, Jane Garland, Betty Copley, Gloria Griggs, Janan Montgomery, Betty Boswell, manager. Here are tri-captains Beth Hylton, Betsy Taylor, Carolyn Thompson, and their Coach, Mrs. Estelle Lumpkin. Beth, Park View ' s outstanding girl athlete, leads the talented trio of guards with her hustle and ball handling while Betsy proves herself to be one of the leading rebounders in the district. Carolyn, a converted forward, combines good ball handling and rebounding with her defensive ability. Another success story! The Girls ' Varsity Basketball team of ' 61- ' 62 wins 6 district games and loses 4 enroute to their fifth place finish in the district. Overtime games and a final con- test which decides the fourth place tournament berth are only a few of the hurdles the Dragon- ettes encounter on their climb up the ladder. Led by tri- captains, Carolyn Th ompson, Betsy Taylor, and Beth Hylton, and backed up by Sadie Smiley and Dian Boddie, the Dragonettes have probably the top defensive unit in the dis- trict. But who will do the scoring? A trio of junior forwards Joyce Ann Duckett, Jane Garland, and Sara Nell McBride, answer that question. Joyce Ann Duckett, who saw only limited varsity action as a sophomore, uses her deadly outside shots and ball handling ability to turn in five 20 point plus performances. Sara Nell McBride, a J.V. veteran, uses her outside shooting and re- bounding skill to balance the attack. Jane Gar- land sets up all the plays and keeps the ball moving besides averaging about 9 points per game. 106 Complete Their Season Ke abridge We 25 . Victoria 46 . Prince Edward 58 . Emporia 52 .

Park View begins the season with a 4-3 loss to Bruns- wick. The Dragons win their next five games be- fore they again face the Bulldogs. They strike back for revenge in the early innings of the game, scoring three runs, but luck deserts them when the Bulldogs score five runs in the seventh inning to defeat the Dragons chances of being first place winners. The P.V. boys easily defeat their final three opponents to maintain their second place position. Marvin Crutchfield, a member of the All- District Baseball team, is the rock of the team, while John O. Cook becomes a one man devastation threat. Cook is the Dragons ' leading pitcher, hit- ter, and runs- batted- in man. In two of the games that he pitches. Cook accounts for all the runs, also. In addition, the Dragons get first rate jobs from Robert Lawson, Robert Tanner, Carl Gude, Emmett Williams, and Larry Smith.

Mary Lou Brennan, a lively senior, and Charlie Plunkett, the dignified sanitary engineer, better known as the janitor, welcome a new student, Don Donley, to Pembroke High. Tryouts are held; the cast is chosen; Miss Rebekah Crouch, director; Miss Barbara Greeson and Mrs. Mildred Moseley, assistant directors, conduct daily practices; and in a few weeks the curtain rises on the senior production Lock, Stock, and Lipstick. The play concerns the problems of a guidance counselor in dealing with the youths in high school. Mr. Warren, a counselor firmly opposed to women, finds upon his re- turn to Pembroke that he must share his office with Miss Gardner, a woman guidance coun- selor. To add to his problem, the janitor, Plunkett, and the maid, Maggs, insist on giving him advice in love. The plot becomes most exciting when $500 is stolen, and all evidence indicates that Larry Donley, one of Miss Gardner ' s clients is guilty. Miss Gardner and Miss Entwhistle listen to Mrs. Donley as she demands to know the nonsense behind her son Larry ' s suspension and the ac- cusations r e gar d ing the missing money. She declares that her son Plunkett, supervising sanitary engineer, using his white glove technique in checking the efficiency of a new maid, decides to inspect under the desk. Finding it quite dirty, he complains, and Maggs decides to quit and go back to her old job as a cook. However, when Plunkett discovers that she is a good cook, he begins to compliment her work instead of criticizing it, and they begin a romance of their own.

Page Taylor Is Crowned ’’Miss Yearbook ' ’ Never before has a yearbook campaign created so much excitement and enthusi- asm at Park View. This year to stimulate sales and to honor a lucky senior girl, the Annual Staff sponsors a Miss Yearbook Contest. Nominees selected by the senior class and the annual staff are Janet Hub- bard, Carolyn Thompson, Carole Holmes, Barbara Hite, and Page Taylor. Each time a student buys a subscription to the Leaves of Memory, he is entitled to vote for his favorite candidate. Promptness is a key factor in the contest for the earlier a stu- dent buys his subscription, the more votes he is entitled to cast. Candidates soon have the hallways plastered with colorful posters urging the students to order their annuals right away and pleading for their votes. After an exciting ten day drive. Page Taylor is announced winner, with Carole Holmes being elected runner-up.

Three Weeks Of Work Lead To Three For three weeks, the juniors slave as they transform the Park View gym into a living replica of the Peppermint Lounge. Their goal- Three hours of pleasure at a never- to-be-forgotten Junior Senior Prom. On the night of May 12, guests enter the ballroom by first passing under a brightly lighted canopy bear- ing the title The Peppermint Lounge. Immediately to the left up- on entering the door, the guests deposit their burden- some articles on a pink hat check stand and receive their programs for the evening. Here, several arriving students prepare to greet a group of faculty members. Happy juniors, while admiring the decorations and dancing, find it hard to believe that only a few hours ago, they were on stepladders hanging crepe paper and completing last minute details. Unforgetable Hours At The ' ' Peppermint Lounge ' ’ Hundreds of red, white, and pink streamers swirl forth from two huge peppermint sticks on each end of the room to form the patio roof. In the corner of the club, adjacent to the fancy pink bar and directly opposite the entrance, the Prince George Royal Serenaders strike up dozens of both hearty and dreamy tunes. Intermission arrives and the couples instinctively find their way to the beauti- fully decorated dining room. They circle around the colorful head table, heaped with goodies, and return to their places to re- lax, eat and come back for seconds. Mrs. Warren, Mrs. Ballard, and Mrs. Gordon serve Billy Vaughan, Helen Stone, and Barbara Young. A long arm jumps up, grabs a han ul of crepe paper, and starts a chain reaction. Even the de- struction is beautiful as the crepe paper makes random designs on every block of tile. But the most wonder- ful part is the shining happy faces of the laughing couples. Yes, the prom is a success ! Talented Students Sing, Play, And Representatives from Park View attend the All- State Band festivities at Huguenot High School in Richmond, Virginia.

The Park View team, composed of three juniors and one sophomore, defeats the Halifax challeng ers, all of which are seniors, 28-26 in a tough battery of questions from news- papers, magazines, and other periodicals which cover current events. The fact that the Halifax team, which appears on the radio show weekly, had only been defeated once before, made Park View ' s victory quite an achievement. Miss Crouch expertly directs the band as it plays Praeludium for Band by Cacavas, in the spring con- cert. The Girls Glee Club sings One Hand, One Heart by Bernstein Stickles at the band and chorus concert. Members of Park View ' s quiz team, sponsored by Mrs. Polly Butts, bone up on the latest current events. These up-to-date students are Teddy O ' Toole, Billy Taylor, Billy Vaughan, Mike Welker, first alternate; and Wil- liam Jackson, 21 Students Assemble For The Final Time 1 |i Underclassmen stand as the seniors march into an assembly is to present attendance awards and to recog- assembly for the final time. The purpose of this last nize outstanding students. Each year on the last day of school, pertect attendance certificates are awarded to those students who have been neither absent nor tardy for the entire school year. Park View, in competition with the other schools in the county, has won the attendance award for every month of this current school year. Mr. Morgan con- gratulates the students and their parents for this fine record before he presents over one hundred perfect attendance awards. Senior Emmett receives special recognition for his outstanding achievement of attending school for twelve years without being absent nor tardy a single time. I 122 1 Drama ’62 Is EXCITINGLY CLIMAXED Up to this point, all the action, suspense, and gaiety of DRAMA ’62 has been contribu- ting to bring about the arrival of the one clinching, climatic scene. In this brilliant climax of not one, but actually twelve years of hard work, the seniors are alone as they command all attention in this their hour upon the stage. Graduation activities begin after the final round of second semester examinations when the seniors celebrate their newly found freedom with a class picnic at Pine Lake. Practices for commencement activities give the seniors an opportunity to savor the thrill of tassels tickling their faces and to realize the solemnity of marching uniformly to Pomp and Circumstance.” The Reverend A. Woodrow Laine de- livers the baccalaureate sermon, Gaining Recognition, to the host of serious seniors on the Sunday night preceding graduation. Dial P.V. for Murder, the hilarious theme for class night helps ease the mount- ing tension and excitement for graduation is tomorrow night! You are the most important person in the world, declares Mr. John E. Allen as he addresses the seniors on graduation night. This night of nights brings emotions of accomplishment and exhilaration tinged with sadness as the eighty-two graduating seniors leave one stage of preparation to commence their larger roles as they so desire. 123 Who Killed Mr. P. V. Senior?? 1 Top ranking stu- dents present class night; Larry Per- kinson, Kenneth Wright, Frances Walthall, Dian Boddie, Joyce Tudor, Steve Hines, Bobby Crowder, J. S. Cundiff. Miss Rebekah Crouch is writer and director of the skit. In the eerie darkness of the first scene of the class night production, Dial P.V. for Murder,” the breathless audience watches an unidentified being stealthily slip onto the stage and stab his quietly sleeping victim as the air is pierced by a blood curdling scream. The next scene reveals that Park View Senior is the deceased. His wife, Frances Walthall, between hysterical sobs, tells the detectives the history of his wonderful life giving the records of his many accomplish- ments. While searching for clues, detectives Kenneth Wright, Bobby Crowder, and Dian Boddie find a box of gifts that Mr. Senior has left to his friends. They then distribute them to the eighty-two members of the class. Gifts range from useful rollingpins, erasers, and telephones to glamorous thunderbirds, black books, and tinker toys. Grieved friends Joyce Tudor and Steve Hines find a book that P.V. had written about his friends. They share the adventures of the Class of ' 62 with the audience. Since their graduation, members of the class have done just about everything imaginable from bullfighting in Mexico to visiting the moon. Park View ' s country cousin, Bluestone, played by J.S. Cundiff, enters the scene to hunt for a will. Upon finding it, he reads aloud the legacies bequeathed by P.V. Finally, the murderer is tracked down, and the mystery is solved. The assassin is none other than Father Time. Joyce Tudor reads P.V. ' s book while Dian Boddie comforts Mrs. P.V. while Kenneth Wright and Bobby Steve Hines and Frances Walthall Crowder search for clues and examine the bloody bedclothes. sorrowfully listen. I 124 Mr. Laine Preaches On ’’Gaining Recognition’ ' Reverend A. Woodrow Laine delivers the Bacca- laureate Sermon as the commencement exercises actually begin. The service begins when the seniors march in to the strains of God of Our Fathers. After the invocation, asked by the Reverend Elden H. Luffman, the congregation joins in to sing the hymn Holy, Holy, Holy, and Mr. Luffman conducts the scripture reading. Miss Rebekah Crouch ' s Mixed Chorus then presents the preparatory hymn, Laudamus Te. Following this selection, Mr. Laine preaches the Baccalaureate Ser- mon. The sermon, based on the subject, Gaining Recog- nition,” is perhaps the most enlightening event for the seniors during the year. Reverend Laine explains how vitally important it is for every, not just some, but every one of the seniors to become an asset to the com- munity rather than a liability. This can be accomplished, he said, by gaining recognition as one who is capable of doing those things approved by man and God. He urges the seniors to show themselves servants of Christ by doing those things acceptable to God and sanctioned by man. Their five years of high school rapidly drawing to a close, the 1962 Seniors line up for the last time.

(At right) Salutatorian Wayne Wright stresses the subject Each Man Plays Many Parts. Wayne declares that in order for a man to play his roles effectively, he must first understand himself. John E. Allen, Director of Development for Longwood College delivers the graduation address, Who Is the Most Important Person in the World . He points out that everyone who dedicates his life to saving time for others can play an important part in the progress of the world. All the World ' s a Stage is the topic for Beth Hylton ' s Salutatory address. Beth welcomes the guests and ex- plains the theme Drama of Life which is an extension of the yearbook theme. 126 Tonight, one by one, each senior makes his long a- waited entrance upon the stage to receive his diploma from Mr. C.H. Morgan, principal. Here, Bobby Crowder, S.C.A. president, receives his diploma in this his hour upon the stage. Seni ors March in . . . Graduates March Out! On June 8, 1962, eighty-two seniors, led by marshals Joyce Nance and Teddy O ' Toole, march down the aisle to the strains of the traditional Pomp and Circum- stance. Reverend Robert Burch, minister of the South Hill Presby- terian Church delivers the invo- cation which is followed by the salutatory addresses of Beth Hyl- ton and Wayne Wright. Next, the Park View Mixed Chorus renders the selection, Climb Every Moun- tain. Mr. A.B. Haga then intro- duces the commencement speaker, John E. Allen, Director of Develop- ment for Longwood College. Fol- lowing Mr. Allen ' s address, Jimmy Weaver, senior class president, presents the class gift to Roy P. Gordon, member of the Mecklen- burg County School Board. Mr. B. P. Lumpkin presents awards to outstanding seniors afterwhich Betty Boswell gives the Vale- dictory message. The Girls Glee Club then sings America Our Heritage which is followed by the presentation of dip- lomas to forty-five girls and thir- ty-seven boys. After the last di- ploma is awarded, the graduates triumphantly march out to the Priests ' March. 1 27 With the presentation of the final di- ploma, the curtain begins to close on the concluding act of DRAMA ' 62. Although this drama will never be reshown or reenacted, the memories of its laughter and heartaches will triumph over time because they are bound into these Leaves of Memory. Yes, the memories of screaming until one is hoarse at a ballgame or pep rally, the sacred hush of that noisy crowd when the Alma Mater is sung, the thrill of dancing in the dim lights of the Peppermint Lounge, the agony of sitting up all night to complete a research theme, and the tears at gradu- ation will remain with the students of Park View long after lives of kings and dates of wars are forgotten. To the cast of DRAMA ' 62, the year ' s production was only a scene in one act of their lives. Regardless of their failures and successes in this production, they will have another opportunity on another stage to channel their destinies in the right di- rection. This play is done, the curtain drops. Slow falling to the prompter ' s bell, A moment yet . . . the actors stop And look around to say ' Farewell ' . 128 Drama 62 Is KINDLY SPONSORED No matter how high the writer ' s dreams may soar, no matter how astute the director may be, without sound financial backing, any production is doomed. Under the direction of competent busi- ness manager, Beth Hylton, the business staff of DRAMA ' 62 supplies the energy and initiative needed to raise adequate funds to support our production. Business staff members sell Park View pins, yearbook covers and subscriptions, sponsor the Miss Yearbook Contest and dance, and sell ad- vertisements in their struggle to keep the account out of the red . To the cooperative merchants in and around South Hill who bought ads in the annual, we give our deepest thanks. With- out their help, the book would have never become a reality. However, we feel that they, too, will benefit from the transaction with our staff. Park View students repre- sent hundreds of families who shop in South Hill and surrounding areas. The teenage members of these families determine many of the purchases made by the adults, as well as forming a growing market themselves. By placing your ads in their hands, you the merchants are creating a lasting im- pression that will develop buying habits for years to come. We urge the students to study these ads carefully and willingly patronize these enterprising advertisers when you shop. )29 KINDLEY FORD SALES, INC.

And though you win your goal or only near it, Can win with poise or lose with equal grace; If you can meet with unbelief, believing. And hallow in your heart, a simple creed. If you can meet deception, undeceiving. And learn to look to God for all you need; If you can be what girls should be to mothers- - Chums in joy and comrades in distress; And be unto others as you ' d have the others Be unto you- -no more, and yet no less; If you can keep within your heart the power To say that firm, unconquerable, no ; If you can brave a present shadowed hour Rather than yield to build a future woe; If you can love, yet not let loving master. But keep yourself within your own self ' s clasp. And not let dreaming lead you to disaster Nor pity ' s fascination loose your grasp. If you can lock your heart on confidences. Nor ever needlessly in turn confide; If you can put behind you all pretenses Of mock humility or foolish pride; If you can keep the simple homely virtue Of walking right with God- -then have no fear That anything in all the world can hurt you-- And- -which is more-- you ' ll be a WOMAN, Dear. If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs, and blaming it on you. If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you. But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting. Or being lied about, don ' t deal in lies. Or being hated, don ' t give way to hating And yet don ' t look too good, or talk too wise: If you can dream- and not make dreams your master; If you can think- and not make thoughts your aim. If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster, And treat those two impostors just the same If you can bear to hear the truth you ' ve spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools. Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken. And stoop and build ' em up with worn-out tools: If you can make one heap of all your winnings; And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss. And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them Hold on ! If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue. Or walk with Kings- nor lose the common touch. If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you. If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds ' worth of distance Yours is the Earth and everything that ' s in it.
