High school is more than an educational process, an athletic team, a social club, or an individual. It is the 4 Foreword stress of exams, the elation of an “A”, the excitement of a game, the sobriety of a conference, the orderliness of a classroom, the chaos of a pep rally. It is none of these, yet it is all of these. It is the sum of experiences, im- pressions, and emotions. Patrick Henry is . . . 5 TWO OUTSTANDING EDUCATORS To George Pierce Compton, who has dedicated thirty-eight years of fruitful serv- ice to the youth of Hanover County, we humbly dedicate this small volume . May it serve as a reminder of the strength and dignity of the man, the poise and perception of the scholar, and the warmth and sincerity of a valued friend. 6 SHARE TOP VOICE HONOR With a great sense of indebtedness, THE VOICE dedicates its fourth volume to Walter Nelson Taylor, principal of Patrick Henry High School since its inception in 1959 . For four years he has brought Patrick Henry to the plane of honor it now holds . We are not simply grateful to Mr. Taylor; we are indebted to him. His departure leaves a void. His integrity leaves a permanent mark on the school ' s future. Our Faculty and DISCIPLINE Administration Are . . . GUIDANCE 10 1 MR. DURHAM Our daily contacts with R. Watson Durham assure us of his deep concern for our personal problems. His polite reserve is an endearing as well as re- assuring quality. 11 MRS. QUARLES One of the busiest places in school is the guidance office of Mrs. Doris Quarles. Her task of counseling in- volves preparation of student schedules, a complete testing program, and a compassion for us that is unequaled at Patrick Henry. 12 MRS. CONYERS Mrs. Conyers has the impossible job of receptionist and secretary at Patrick Henry. Her competence i s often dis- guised behind a flurry of energy and a devastating smile that seem to make our most involved problems solve themselves. 13 JAMES M.

New levels of responsi- bility, new friends, and many new experiences were to be ours as seniors. From the very first day when Mr. Taylor informed us that we were seniors now through the long-lasting parties after graduation we never forgot. Fall and football always seemed a wonderful pair ( . . . and a winning season helped make it so more than ever). Classes were a little harder, sometimes a little more interesting,, but few of the teacher-told jokes seemed any fresher or funnier than they were when we first heard them as eighth graders . Senior sophistication was frequently shattered by Ed Corker ' s remarks and Brauther became a by -word to all of us. If McClur- kin was having no trouble with his Hudson, then he was with his women. Something was always wrong somewhere. On the other hand was Annabelle Corbin who showered glory upon herself (and the class) almost daily. A list of her awards and honors would take at least a page of this book to print . The second semester came on like gang busters and we were half way through before we realized we had started. College Board scores were coming in and college applications were going out. Crossed fingers greatly increased on campus! At the same time some were trying to land a seat in college, others of us were try- ing to land a job, and in some instances, a husband. Plans, plans, and more plans! Graciela Maria Acosta Shirley Van Adams Ronald Anthony Alfano Patricia Anne Babcock 25 Remembering the great amount of work the prom required made us extremely happy not to be involved . We had done ours last year and now could sit back and enjoy someone else ' s work. A few whispered threats to the juniors produced results and they managed creditably -- although not as well as last year. We may seem a bit redundant but, mind you, we accomplished all of this with major and minor disturbances . Between Nelson Flippo ' s camera sticking its unforgiving eye into everything to exhaust notes from Winfred Hall ' s Ford were a thousand distrac- tions that would have dampened less able spirits . Sweden sent us a golden-haired diplomat named Kia Nylander. Patrick Henry ' s first exchange student represented her country well and helped make us appreciate her country and its people. Our already bright year was made even brighter by Kia ' s golden hair and warm personality . Our class was one of the few groups in the entire country to find good reason for thanking Fidel Castro. When Mr. Castro turned communist many people were forced to leave Cuba. That ' s how Chela Acosta happened to come to us . Cuba ' s loss was our gain -- and quite a gain it was . Perhaps we failed to be the greatest in everything but our record as a class left a standard we are proud of. If what we did inspires next year ' s class to beat our record, well, that ' s one more feather in our cap!

We were the class of 1964 and had visual proof for the first time. Juniors -- the word carried more responsibility than we had imagined it would . It meant many different things to each of us but to us, as a group, it meant we had to mature and prove ourselves capable academi- cally and emotionally o f moving to the top of the scholastic ladder. Our record, now history, firmly established our right to be called Seniors in the Fall. Individual efforts of class members brought winning seasons in sports and made possible club and so- cial activities that would have never been without leadership and support from our class . Through these activities we learned much about getting along with each other --an important lesson for later years . Spring generated its usual fever but we could scarcely allow ourselves to succomb. There was so much to do for the prom (and we became so excited doing it) that when it came, was a success and was over, we had difficulty believing it had happened . The junior year might be called anti-climatic, but to us as a class, it would be difficult to imagine a more exciting year ending.

We now had two below us and two above, and thus the challenge was to identify with the top. It was with an unconscious awareness that we felt, rather than knew, that the eyes were really on us . Clubs and classes knew our presence and we amazed ourselves with what we could accomplish. Our members helpedtake two sports, football and basketball, into high end - of-the season sports, and our Shamrock Ball was a social event to be remembered. Spring brought spring fever but this was not enough to quell the excitement of ordering class rings. One more mark in our progress along Patrick Henry ' s walkways.

Looking around on that first day of school we viewed the new eighth grade and wondered, Did we look that small? Did we seem that lost? Our muscles made themselves felt as we participated actively in junior varsity athletics, our eyes firmly fixed on the varsity first-string in a few short years. This was our year to prove ourselves . Second place in stunt night did little to dull our enthusi- asm and it was with pride that we watched each other emerge from within our own ranks as leaders and person- alities .

Changing classes, new subjects, and a lost feeling that was bound to come after having been the tops the year before . So many changes and challenges might have done -in lesser people, but not us. We accepted the challenge, elected a fine slate of officers to speak for us, started an eighth grade basketball team, had a swinging dance and so many more things that seem less spectacular but were just as important in our growth as people and as a class. Most important of all, we started on the right foot and announced that we were here to make our mark .

The Citizenship Club, sponsored by Mrs. Cabell Luck and Miss Audrey Nuckolls, strives to instill citizenship and participation in the students at Patrick Henry. By doing so the club further enriches the community and people and helps create brother- hood and purpose. Through debates and numerous speakers this year, the club has shown its many fine principles. Trooper Moore speaks on Citizenship on the Highway during the Citizenship Club Assembly.

Music sharps, flats, bars, stanzas, and notes are not the interests of this club, but the beauty and inspiration which it bestows upon its listeners are. These are the things of music which Mr. Scruggs gives to the club ' s members, in whatever type of music they like. The accomplishments of the Music Appreciation Club are of the intangible order, -- the satisfaction and peace of mind received by the members Members check out their new hi-fi system. 77 Left to Right: Jamie Sherrard, Douglas Payne, Scott Gibbs, Johnny Mallory, Chris Coffin, Kelley Lane, Jimmy Miller, Robert Graham, Robert Weems, Mrs. Tenney, Iwanna Melnyk. SCIENCE RESEARCH CLUB MEMBERS WIN NUMEROUS HONORS BELOW: Jamie Sherrard explains his project, Harmones on Plants, which won a 3rd place award in the Patrick Henry Science Fair. Through the aid of Mrs. Ten- ney and extremely interested club members, the Science Research Club has become very active in talent searches and contests. Jimmy Miller, Robert Weems, and Robert Graham won high hon- ors in the Virginia Junior Academy of Science and The West- inghouse Talent Search. All the members must have an interest in science and a high average in school work. Both of these are necessary for the pro- jects the members undertake for submittance to contests and talent searches. Besides their individual projects the members were visi- tors at the University of Rich- mond ' s Open House and Biology Lectures and Seminars . 78 These activities are designed to promote individual research and bring about an increased in- terest in science about the school Both activities have been proven successful as evidenced by the honors accorded the members on a national and statewide basis .

Another activity presents individuals preparing for the Science Fair, giving of their time to further their education. Yes, these are some of the activities of this club, done to increase their curiosity in the world around them, and to boost their self-confidence and intellect. Something has finally interested Billy! Can it be a fish. 80 This year the Bios Club, which previ- ously has been an honor club only for stu- dents averaging an A in biology, opened its membership to those excelling in chem- istry and physics. This change proved re- warding . New members bred new enthusiasm; thus the club undertook numerous projects . The most outstanding was the county science fair. Titles of the exhibits ranged from An Attempt To Produce Transforma- tion in Artificially Induced Non- Luminous Mutant Cultures of Photobacterium Fis- cheri by Treatment With D.N.A . Extracts Taken From Normal Cultures to The Study of the Respiration of a Potato.” The Bios Club Project, The Study of the Sulphur Mines at Mineral, Virginia, won honorable mention at the Virginia Junior Academy of Science Open House. President elect of the Bios Club, Robert Weems, views $100 Grand Prize which he won at the Ran dolph Macon Science Fair. BIOS CLUB SPONSORS P.H.

Its members are always available to show educational films to supplement courses . Under the sponsorship of Mr . Charles McKinney, the members also learn valuable facts about audio- visual aids and their operation. The club keeps an up-to-date list of all new films posted in the office and projectionists ' room. 82 CAMERA CLUB IS AN ASSET TO P.H. Photography is a serious business. Tony Cooke, Vice President; Steve Bartholomew; Russ Goodwin; Frank Flippo; Fred Palmore; Phil Goodwin, Secretary-Treasurer; Robert Lindenzweig; Nelson Flippo, President. Whether it is the absence of it in the darkroom, the availability of it in setting the lens opening, or the general air and personality of this club, Light is the key word. Their work has graced the pages of the P.H. Spark, local news- papers, and most importantly, this volume. Members have enjoyed working closely with Mr. Nelson Taylor, club sponsor, Principal of Patrick Henry High, and camera bug first class . • Camera Club members work behind the scenes to photograph needed pictures for the school news- paper and annual. 83 STUDENTS TEST CHESS STRATEGY Checkmate! Oh! Well, try again!” These statements and sounds could come only from a Chess Club meeting. Monthly, mem- bers gather to try their latest strategy on the traditional fields of battle . Mr . Dave Smith, the club sponsor, supervises tactics and teaches new members the game of war . Mr. Smith advises club officers, Chela Acosta and Richard Newell, on an involved move. 84 F.T.A.

Through monthly meetings and an exciting trip to Mary Washington College, members of the Future Teachers of America learned about teaching and the future that one might find there . The club ' s very existence is to encourage members to teach and to appreciate the role and responsibility of a teacher in school . The annual assembly program illustrated the club ' s goals and purpose for all of Patrick Henry . Mrs. Katherine Hoyle, F.T.A. consultant of the V.E.A., addresses the club. 85 FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA F.H.A.

A few of these were the adoption of an elderly lady in a local convalescent home and contribu- tions to the county Christmas Mother and the American Field Service Program. For their annual Assembly Program, the Chapter presented a program with Rev. Lawson, Randolph Macon College Chaplain, speaking on the Importance of Citizenship in Home and Community. Many of the members enjoyed selling knives and serving dinners as chapter money-making projects . 86 WORK FOR BETTER CITIZENSHIP Under the sponsorship of the home economics teachers -- Mrs. Ruth Durham, Mrs. Carol Stevenson, and Mrs. Ivy Cross -- the Chapter again this year boasts many hon- ors. Evelyn Coates, a Senior, served as Federation President for the year, and Jane Starke, a Junior, succeeded Joan Longest as State F.H.A. Treasurer.

Good feeding, good breeding and care, and the use of better seeds and fertilizer make for a better rounded program of farming in the community . The chapter has held competitive pro- grams this year with other area chapters in forestry, crops, shop, tractor driving, public speaking, soil and livestock judging. The chapter members prepared and ex- hibited more than 100 exhibits for the Vir- ginia State Fair. Eight boys were candidates for the State Farmer Degree. This is the highest award in the state . Those candidates were Walter Bremner, James Beazley, Edward Corker, Dale Vaughan, Dennis Beard, Eugene Hall, Keith Bradford, and Churchill Noland. These degrees will be awarded at the 1963 State F . F . A . Convention in June at V . P . I .

The Chorus began its activities this year by performing for the Thanksgiving Assembly. Then came the long, hard days of work and planning for the Christ- mas Assembly devoted to the music de- partment . Plans were upset by the weather and the assembly was canceled due to snow. The 1963 season got underway with concentrated practice for the Spring Music Festival. The work paid off when this group received a II rating, higher than any P.H. Chorus had received be- fore. ”HMS Pinafore, ” Gilbert and Sulli- van ' s opperetta, was offered in the spring and the year ' s end activities were brightened by the Chorus ' ap- pearance at graduation exercises . 98 RATING THAN BEFORE AT FESTIVAL The planning and talent expended upon the stage for HMS Pinafore show clearly in the picture to the right. Three performances of the musical made good use of this preliminary effort. The entire cast of HMS Pinafore is pictured on the set after their first performance.

The band ' s final appear- ances during year ' s end activi- ties provided just the right touch for departing seniors. These activities included the formal Senior Assembly and Class Day. BELOW: Oh, boy, would you look at their majorettes ! 101 PATRICK HENRY During the half- times of football games, despite the weather and regardless if the Patri- ots were winning or losing, the majorettes would strut out, twirl- ing their batons in time to the band ' s rousing music, to boost the spirit of the fans.

At the beginning of the year it was decided that assistant homeroom repre- sentatives would be needed in order for the new projects to be carried out. Fall was brightened by the arrival of Kia, whose visit was one of the S.C.A. projects . This was followed by a year of planning on future and former pro- jects including landscaping the school, school honor system, and daily devotion- als by individual students. The S.C.A. also gave a non-profit Christmas Dance for the entire school and managed all school assemblies. All in all the year was a good one for the school and through the diligent work of the S.C.A., many projects were com- pleted and plans for the future were made . 106 Anna Belle Corbin, Kia Nylander, Petra Nurminen, Wylyn Letson, Florence Bishop, Grace Zanardi and Gretchen Moore participate in an AFS sponsored panel discussion before the student body.

HONORIS CAUSA “For the Sake of Honor” BELOW: Anna Belle Corbin and Walter Hoye talk together between classes. Honoris Causa encourages learning for its own sake. Those who have been received into the order have intellec- tual curiosity. Mental and moral disci- pline builds character which is the basis of leadership. Members of Hon- oris Causa are leaders whether or not they hold school offices. The satisfac- tion that comes from a job well done, the horizons that are broadened through study, the rewards that follow new in- terests make worthwhile the struggle for scholarship of the highest quality. Seniors who have been recognized by Honoris Causa know that the harder the struggle, the greater the achievement . ill “SPARK WINS HONOR The words, Deadline next Monday! are usually the signal for the eleven members of The Spark ' s literary staff to spill out onto the sidewalks of Patrick Henry, hot on the trail of fresh news stories. One never knows where a Spark reporter may strike next in the search for a story . Once a newsworthy victim is found, he is plied with questions as the reporter jots down a bewildering jumble of notes . A faculty member hidden away in the darkest lairs of a teachers ' lounge is in just as much danger of this verbal assault as a student standing on senior row.” When the last tidbits of news are gathered and stories are ready to be written, the most awesome spectacle of all takes place. Eleven Spark” reporters charge for one typewriter in the 10 ' x 6 ' staff room In the midst of all this frantic activity, Margaret Knight, editor, and Mr. Frank Reynolds, sponsor, have somehow managed to proof articles, write headlines, and prepare the layout for upcoming issues. A student on the Spark business staff is of a hardy breed. His specialty is to cleverly persuade local merchants to advertise in the pages of The Spark, but this is scarcely the full extent of his talents . He must subsidize the paper ' s hungry bank account by selling light bulbs, perfume, paperback books, and, of course, the issues of The Spark.” For the past year, Mar- LITERARY STAFF: Margaret Knight, Chris Zeno, Russ Palmore, Elizabeth Troxell.

PATRICK HENRY ANNUAL STAFF BELOW: Pettus Frazier and Harriet Priddy prepare for the taking of underclass pictures. All copy must be in today! This is a familiar sound, as the members of the Annual Staff rush about meet- ing last-minute deadlines. Amid the helter-skelter, a yearbook record- ing daily life at Patrick Henry is somehow produced. At the beginning of the year under the sponsorship of Mr. Scruggs, Cabell Luck, Business Manager, briefed his colleagues on the correct way to solicit ads . At the same time Pettus Frazier, Editor-in-Chief, and Mr . Duff, Literary Sponsor, worked with the Literary Staff, teaching them procedures of layout . 114 The members did not give without gaining for by the end of the year they had gained valuable knowledge about organization and editorial work Besides these things, several mem- bers were sent to S.I.P.A. conven- tion where they received additional advice concerning the production of a good yearbook. These were Harriet Priddy, Joe Antonelli, John Winston, and Jerry Grubbs . The final result of all the mem- bers ' labor is the preservation of the year ' s events at Patrick Henry.

FINISHES IN PATRICK HENRY 35 KING GEORGE 0 The Patriots opened the season against the Foxes on Sep- tember 14. Grubbs scored first touchdown of the game in the first quarter giving the Patriots a 7 to 0 lead. Grooms was the next to score and later was followed by Grubbs who scampered across from 56 yards out to make it 20 to 0. Mills tallied up the final score completing the Patriots vic- tory . PATRICK HENRY 13 ROCK HILL 0 The Patriots met a new opponent in Rock Hill, but scored in the first quarter with Grubbs adding 6 and Johnson adding a point after the touchdown. Johnson scored in the second quarter and the score remained the same at the end of the game, 13 to 0 . PATRICK HENRY 0 VARINA 13 Patrick Henry faced a heavier, larger team but met them with an unexpected desire and determination. Although play- ing one of the hardest fought games of the season, the Blue Devils edged P.H. 13 to 0. The P.H. defense paced by Don- nie Tate and Charles Walton held Varina to an unexpected score. Halfback Ronald Grubbs gave full effort, but found the Varina defense too strong. Coach Glenn S. Rudacille. Coach Phil Coppage PATRICK HENRY 18 LEE DAVIS 0 Patrick Henry met a rough Confederate defense until they scored the first touchdown then Lee Davis crumpled. Two more touchdowns followed. The P.H. defense was led by Ralph Johnson, and Don Tate in this 18 to 0 shutout of an arch rival. PATRICK HENRY 14 GARFIELD 27 Patrick Henry went up against a Group 1-B school at home which proved to be too much. Ronald Grubbs scored on a 100 yard run tying the game at 14 to 14. Garfield then scored two quick touchdowns on passes, which could not be counteracted by long ground gains . PATRICK HENRY 34 SPOTSYLVANIA 0 It was a cold night, and the field was hard as bricks, but the spirits of the team re- mained high for they scored in every quarter. However the big moment was when Ron Tyson scored on a 50 yard run. PATRICK HENRY 35 POWHATAN 0 The Patriots found weakness in both the Indians ' offensive and defensive early in the game. Showing great spirit and readiness, they marched on to upset the Indians home- coming by defeating them 35 to 0. 118 UPPER HALF OF DISTRICT II Fullback Ralph Johnson (35) is stopped for a short gain by a strong Colonial Heights defense. Senior Co -captains Ronald Grubbs (12) and Carlton Eddleton (32). Halfback Ronald Grubbs cuts be- tween two Midlothian players as he picks up 8 yards.

The offense also scored on many opportunities. 120 ON ALL STATE TEAM Walter Hoye, Berry Wright, Jim Cobb.

PATRIOTS 195 — OPPONENT 70 The Patriot football squad sparked by such exceptional players as Ralph Johnson, Ronald Grubbs, Carlton Eddleton and many others, moved on in the 1962 campaign to finish with a winning season of 7 wins and 3 loses . With an outstanding defensive line the Patriots were able to hold their opponents to a very small number of rushing yards while their spirited offense rocked up countless touchdowns. The Patriots held their opposing teams scoreless in seven of the games played allowing 70 points to be scored against them in the season. Losing only four players from the starting line-up the re- turning Patriots have hopes for an even better season for 1963.

Lacking size the J.V. ' s relied mostly on quick opening plays and a passing attack geared by the receiving of co- captain ends Jeff Spencer and Calvin Stanley. Highlighting the season were the 6-0 win over Colonial Heights, and an 8-7 loss to Lee- Davis, where the Patriots just ran out of time.

Patriots Go To Tournament Patrick Henry vs . Madison The Patriots moved to a semi-final berth in the tournament by defeating Madison 60- 38. Ralph Johnson contributed 27 points and Ronald Grubbs had 14, to win the first for Patrick Henry. Patrick Henry vs . Colonial Heights The strongest district team, Colonial Heights, handed Patrick Henry their first tournament loss, winning 78-37. The loss put the Patriots in position for a play-off game with Lee-Davis. Johnson was again high scorer for P.H. with 13 points. Fred Daniels of the Colonials was the game ' s high scorer with 20 points. Patrick Henry vs . Lee-Davis Lee-Davis, county rivals of the Patriots, gave all they had in the consolation game of the District 2, Group 2 tournament. However, this was not enough to stop the Patriots from winning, on a great 21 point performance by Ralph Johnson, by a score of 46-38. The victory gave Patrick Henry third place in the tourney. Kenny Hart and Frank Matro scramble for the ball against tournament champions Colonial Heights. Compiling a 7-9 record the Patriots played mediocre ball the first part of the season, but picked up and became a pre- cisioned outfit after the first few games . Led by Johnny Mallory and Jeff Spencer, Patrick Henry shifted into high gear and won several come -from -behind decisions over their opponents . Climaxing the season at home against Lee-Davis, the Patriots made a desper- ate comeback bid in the fourth quarter, and went on to win 35-33 . Spencer outjumps opponent to tap the ball to Hale.

Each member of the team put in long hours of practice prepar- ing for basketball games with area schools . Although the girls had a good season, winning the game was not their only goal. All of the girls played each game in a sportsmanlike manner which made their school proud of them . The Patriettes were led by their co- captains, senior guard, Marguarite Gilman and senior forward, Elizabeth Troxell. Being a mem- ber of the basket- ball team proved to be a rewarding experience for each girl as did coaching for Mrs . Cooper and Miss Nuckolls . ABOVE: Co -captain Elizabeth Troxell for jump ball.

CAPTURES DISTRICT TRACK CROWN Crippled by the loss of Dave Ander- son, star sprinter who graduated, the Patriots had quite a few rookie stars as they swept up the district with ease. Reinforced by the return of ace sprinter, Ron Grubbs, who shattered two school records and a district record (100 yd. dash . . . 9 .9) and big Don Tate, state discus champion the Patriots won the district easily, capturing nine firs t place titles . Undefeated in the regular season the Patriots went to the state meet with high hopes of winning, but suffered disappointment when few Patriot entrants came up to usual stand- ards .

With Keith Bradford showing the way, the Pa- triots crushed the Tigers 5-1 for Carlton Ed- dleton who struck out 12 men enroute to a five hitter . Continuing their winning ways, the Patriots compiled an 11-2 record as they went on to be- come co -champions of District 2 for the sec- ond straight year . The Patriots were led by such standouts as Russ Palmore ( . 372) Keith Bradford ( . 359) and Johnny Mallory ( . 363) while Carlton Eddleton led the pitching, averaging 9 strikeouts a game . Ronnie Grubbs supplied superb clutch hitting to power the Patriots to several come -from - behind victories and also tied for the RBI lead along with Frank Matro, Kenny Hart, and Bucky Hale .

Handicapped by inexperience, the junior Patri- ots won only one out of their first 5 games, but came roaring back, winning their last three. Twice they trounced teams to which they had lost earlier in the season. With a little experience under their belts the Patriots turned into a formidable outfit, led by such standouts as Johnny Hart, who consistently came through with the big hit . The pitching was led by Billy Priddy and Sammy Mitchell, with Charles Eddleton showing great potential as a short-term reliefer. Sammy Mitchell also led the team in extra -base hits and teamed up with his brother, Jimmy to form an unbeatable battery. 140 JUNIOR VARSITY CHEERLEADERS: L-R: Judy Spencer, assistant head cheerleader; Bess Cheney, Cynthia Stone, Jackie Payne, Anne Sale, head cheerleader; Patty Linamen, Gretchen Moore, and Betsy Cox. JV CHEERLEADERS BOOST WINNING TEAMS Full of pep, spirit, and enthusiasm, eight girls from the fresh- man and sophomore classes, composed the 1962-63 Junior Varsity Cheerleading Squad of Patrick Henry School . The J. V. Cheerleaders appeared in red skirts and white sweat- ers during football season. Their new outfits, consisting of red vests and skirts with white blouses, added color to the basketball season . In addition to cheering for all J. V. sports, they aided the Var- sity Cheerleaders by participating in pep rallies and Homecoming Festivities . Always on hand and always displaying Patriotic pep, the J. V. Cheerleaders were an essential part of athletic competition. 141 W OUR ACTIVITIES ARE . . . SHARING FACULTY NOMINATES FIFTY ANNA BELLE CORBIN The ability to lead is a rare and enviable trait; how- ever, to a born leader such as our S . C . A . presi- dent Anna Belle Corbin, the more the opportunities to lead, the more fun is af- forded. Anna Belle ' s honors which range from election to class offices to election to Governor of Girls’ State in 1962, apparently offered her constant enjoyment. Through all the fame that resulted from her accom- plishments, Anna Belle re- mained essentially the per- son she always had been -- quiet, efficient, sincere, and devoted to completing any task which presented it- self. ADDISON JONES Poise and a sincere belief in the worth of humanity give Addison Jones an advantage over his fellow students which marks him as a leader. Chosen to guide the Patrick Henry student body during the year 1963-1964, Addison brings to office a background that ranges from ability in athletics to a position on the annual staff. 144 STUDENTS CHOOSE TEN WALTER HOYE One of the more mature members of the Patrick Henry student body is Walter Hoye. Possessing an ability to accept respon- sibility and to co-operate with other members of the team, Walter has carved a well deserved name for himself. Diverse in interests, he has participated effectively in a variety of activities from sports to represent- ing the school at Boys ' State in 1962 . PETTUS FRAZIER Almost as if she had been saving a phrase for just the proper moment, Pettus ' appropriate words when needed smoothed rough spots out of every phase of her varied life . She was active in class leadership, edi- tor of the 1963 VOICE, cheerleader, charity princess, and quiet friend of the masses. Pettus Frazier has es- tablished a pattern of character traits that is enviable from any view- point and destined to bring honor and pride to herself and her school. 145 AS TOP PEOPLE CAROLYN KEYES Beauty never deflected Carolyn Keyes in her charted high school career. For more important than her personality and beauty are her intellectual and leader- ship abilities . Her activities as a cheerleader, member of F.T.A., National Honor So- ciety, and Beta Club served daily as re- minders to her classmates that hard work and devotion to purpose are the answers to a successful high school life . GRAYSON JOHNSON Popular Grayson Johnson ' s interest in people has reflected favorably in his ac- complishments at Patrick Henry. As have so many of the top ten, Grayson has proven himself not only in one facet of school life but in many. As a member of S . C . A . , Beta, and the Key Club, Grayson has established the reputation of . . . getting the job done regardless of personal sacrifice.” 146 — IN 1963 RUSS PALMORE Diverse in interest, quick in mind, and talented as an athlete, Russ Palmore moves through Patrick Henry ' s campus as an ex- ample to all. Trust signifies much of what is generally felt by those who know him -- trust that he will do what he can as best he can in the most honest way he can. His record indicates that this trust is not false or unwarranted. Repeatedly chosen to represent and lead his fellow students, Russ Palmore continues to achieve; in so doing he sets an admirable goal for his fellow students . LARRY GILMAN Larry Gilman, voted best all around member of the class of 1963, earned the right to the title through top grades and a multitude of extracur- ricular activities . His ambition and talent have earned him the honor of cap- tain of the 1963 basketball team and the president ' s chair in the Key Club . Larry has proven himself a capable follower and leader in his years at Patrick Henry. 147 AT PATRICK HENRY LYN LETSON School spirit, an abstract term at best that generally denotes a Rah- Rah” sort of feeling, takes on a new and concrete meaning when applied to Lyn Letson. Admired by contem- poraries and faculty alike, Lyn has contributed quietly and generously of herself -- giving unselfishly to school and community. Asa charity princess, school leader, and student, she has created a place for herself in Patrick Henry ' s history. A quick flashing smile and a slight nod of the head were guaran- tees of a job well done to anyone who called upon Lyn ' s tim e and talent. RONALD GRUBBS Few of us ever break a record or know the heady feeling that must re- sult from being the best at some- thing. Tie this in with personality and a good mind, and it would be most natural to create a big head who was interested in his own glory and forgot the Team. Perhaps Ronnie Grubbs’ greatest accomplishment is that even though he did set records, was obviously the best at many things, and showed intelligence in class, he re- mained principally interested in his fellow players and the team. In do- ing so, he has brought much credit to himself, his teammates, and Patrick Henry. 148 SWEDEN’S AMBASSADOR TO PATRICK HENRY � Knowing people is one big factor in getting along in the world . The more varied the knowl edge, the greater the chances of being a suc- cess. The American Field Service’s program of bringing and sending students from one country to another is a positive effort to edu- cate us in the ways, customs, and peoples of the world . The daily routine of Patrick Henry was sparked and brightened by our first such stu- dent, Kia Nylander from Sweden. Socially, we must have seemed forward, even awkward at times, -- but soon our customs became her own and our new American- ized ambassador took to task her role as representative from Swe- den. She made us aware of her- self and the qualities that her country had instilled in her. To sum it all up, Kia Nylander made Sweden more than a spot on the map with X” number of exports and X” number of imports. She made it a living room of wonder - ful people . Classroom efforts that were routine to us were a challenge to Kia because of her shyness and unfamiliarity with American, English, and Virginian customs . She was never ’’dead wood. Her pres- ence in class sparked comment and discussion that would have not taken place without her . She provided a new outlook for us . P.H. INSTALLS LANGUAGE LAB The installation of Patrick Henry ' s language laboratory this year was an event that would rate little space under normal circum- stances . Several factors behind the scenes make this equipment valuable beyond its face value. The fourteen unit lab, soon to be twenty-four, was designed and constructed largely through the efforts of Charles McKinney, physics instructor, Frank Reynolds, French instructor, and Frank Flippo, an eighth grade student with excep- tional ability in electronics . Cost of the lab was held to a fraction of market cost through complete home con- struction using surplus electronic equipment, student, and staff labor. This lab, representing the most up-to-date method of teaching modern foreign lan- guages, is a system of tape recorders which allows a student to hear exactly how the language SHOULD sound and then affords him an opportunity to hear his own efforts and to make a compari- son . Top picture: Mr . McKinney, Frank Flippo, and a workman testing the lab . Below: Mr . Reynolds attempts to disregard the workmen and con- duct class . 150 THE ASHLAND RESCUE SQUAD Having the community firmly behind a school means the difference between suc- cess and failure. The entire western part of Hanover County has been behind Patrick Henry and our success in every field of school activity supports this statement. One seemingly small support offered was was the faithful Ashland Rescue Squad which followed our football team to every game. This was done voluntarily with few thanks and no financial support directly from the school. At least part of the football team ' s success pan be attributed to the knowledge that there was expert help waiting should an accident occur. This assurance must have been invaluable as a morale factor, too, during our winning season. We of Patrick Henry want to recognize as a body that we knew the Rescue Squad was there; furthermore for everything they did for us, from treating faint- ing cheer- leaders to attending our injured players, we are unani- mously grateful. RSHLRH l V V 151 Since Stunt Night is an S. C. A. project all members of Patrick Henry ' s student body are expected to participate in the preparation as well as the program. STUNT NIGHT IS A Of the two winning Sophomore Class stunts one was a skit done by the indescribable dancing figures at the right. The Sophomores also created Operation Football, a take- off on television ' s medical shows as well as our football losses. 152 Do you REALLY think my helment is be- coming? The Senior Class attempted to launch America ' s first woman astronaut in Female 7. TRADITION AT P.H.H.S. The Junior Class recalled from history the tragedy of the Lost and Found Colony with Butch Bowles as Virginia Dare. Mark Twain is still very much a part of the American scene. The Freshman Class por- trayed A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur ' s Court. A typical Eighth Grader enjoys the library under the direction of Mrs. Moore and Mrs. Reed. 153 ENDLESS EFFORTS PRODUCE Miss Audrey Nuckols, assisted by Junior Class member, Harriet Priddy, directs the seniors in their practice for the senior figure. Pictured to the right is Margaret Knight ordering flowers from Walter Hoye. There were so many prepa- rations for the biggest night of the year ! 154 AN UNFORGETTABLE MARDI GRAS Thoroughly infected with the fast approaching end of school, the Juniors began the long happy task of planning and producing the biggest of all Patrick Henry dances, the Junior -Senior Prom. The early meetings assured them that work was the only way to success and that they had enough talent to guarantee as good a prom as had been seen here, if not the best ever. Centering their efforts around the theme Mardi-Gras, they called on their artists and designers” to come up with ideas that would transform the gym into an appropriately magic setting. The New Orleans flavor was effective, but required work, work, and more work. At times they wondered if it were all worth it! This question was answered gradually as things began to take shape; by the night of the actual dance when the final details were cleared, they realized just what a fine job they had done. 155 KING REX AND HIS QUEEN Fred Palmore and Judy Spencer were crowned King and Queen of the Junior-Senior Prom, thereby establishing a new tradition at Patrick Henry. 156 HIGHLIGHT THE EVENING’S FESTIVITIES The magic of dancing with a beautiful girl to Kenny Henderson ' s music made the Juniors ' efforts seem small and certainly no one could forget the pleased looks and wonderful comments made by the seniors and faculty when they viewed the Juniors ' accomplishments , Flashing smiles, long formal dresses, and white dinner jackets added to the mes- meric effect of the formal dance figure . The evening drew to a close, and as the sun rose over private parties, nothing, not even cleaning up, could dim the joy of the night before . Mrs. Doris Quarles, valued friend and counselor, again counsels Seniors on proper behavior and procedure just prior to the Commencement Sermon held this year in Blackwell Auditorium at Randolph Macon on June the second. BETWEEN THE FIRST SENIOR ASSEMBLY AND Led by a close friend and Senior Class president, Fred Palmore, the Senior Class of 1963 solemnly exits from the first Senior assembly. 158 RIGHT: Should the future of the class of 1963 turn out to be as interesting and varied as predicted by Carolyn Barnes and Becky Harris, the class will prove a credit to the many phases and facets of learning offered at Patrick Henry. BELOW: All was not seriousness and solemness during the final days at Patrick Henry. Class Day provided a chance to make light of Sen- iors and their shortcomings. Here giving out annual gifts (much to the delight of the rest of the student body) are Charlotte Waldrop and Larry Gilman. Receiving her gift is Carolyn Keyes. THE CLASS SERMON CAME A MULTITUDE OF EVENTS 159 Whispered questions, is my cap straight? Does my slip show? Did Mr. Taylor say we HAD to come Friday? , convey some of the excitement prior to assembly. The rush of making deadlines and schedules plagued every member of the Class of 1963. Here they prepare for the assembly in which Dr. J. Earl Moreland, President of Randolph Macon College for Men, offered all sound advice. Apprehension marked the faces as the class of 1963 prepared to enter the final formal assembly. They were proud that they were the first four year class to be graduated from Patrick Henry. Pictured to the right is Dr. J. Earl Moreland, President of Randolph Macon College for Men, who was the speaker at the final Senior Assembly. Dr. Moreland spoke to the class about the twin purposes of life -- creation and service. He noted the limitless opportunities that await anyone who will make an honest effort. His words carried a special meaning to the gradu- ating Seniors. The Senior class received a standing ovation as the Junior Marshals Joe Antonelli, Sandy Smith, Kathy Ferrell, Russ Palm ore, and Ray Berry led the way out. 161 Members of the Class of 1963 pose on the U.S. Capitol steps with Mr. James Acosta and Mrs. Linda Luck, class sponsors, and Senators Harry F. Byrd and Hugh Towers. The senior trip to Washington, D. C. in May of this year was highlighted by meeting the famous Senator Harry F. Byrd who welcomed the class to the capital and talked with many members of the class. The class was accompanied by their sponsors and Mr. R. W. Durham, P.H. assistant principal. Pictured on the right is Senator Byrd talking with Mrs. Luck and Mr. Acosta. 162 The excitement created by visiting the nation ' s capital was reflected in Senior faces all during the day. An excellent example of this politically generated excitement can be seen in the face of Senior Class president Fred Palmore in the picture on the right. VIRGINIA SENATOR WELCOMED SENIORS The bus ride around Washington was spiced with horseplay and excited stories of what had occurred earlier. 163 The pleasure of dinner together was greatly enhanced by being allowed more than twenty-five minutes in which to eat. Activities such as this dinner together aided the Class of 1963 in becoming more a team than they had been previously. THE WASHINGTON TRIP WILL BE A CHERISHED MEMORY Happy smiles reflect the contentment of educational experiences. 164 Pictured above is Mr. Roswell Page, Executive Secretary of Hanover County, who graciously explained the battles of Cold Harbor. ROSWELL PAGE ADDRESSED CLASS AT COLD HARBOR The newly completed Hanover County jail was a point of much interest and speculation. Some students contemplated how nice it would be to live there while others tried to figure ways to get out should the necessity arise. Pictured to the right is Walter Hoye getting an idea of what life is like behind bars. 165 SPECIAL SENIOR ACTIVITIES SEEMED ENDLESS ABOVE: President Fred Palmore discusses matters with members of the Food and Drink Committee for the Senior party. They are Ronald Grubbs, Larry Gilman, Brenda Gibson, and Nelson Flippo. Much work on the part of many committees and of all members of the Senior Class guaranteed a successful blast to end four years at Patrick Henry. RIGHT: Joyce Godsey pays class dues, one of many class activities, to Pettus Frazier. 166 ' 193 Pictured above is Robert Taylor being photographed in the fall by a Rex Gibson photographer. This was the first time in cap and gown and provided a hint of things to come for Seniors Individual caps and gowns arrived in May. Pictured above is Mrs. Jean Cliff checking the Seniors in and the caps and gowns out. 167 Sandy Smith and Kathy Ferrell found Class Presi- dent Fred Palmore a real pusher as they pulled K.P. at the Senior party June 6th at the Hanover Country Club. Helping at the party was the final duty of the Junior Mar- shals who prepared to take their well earned places as members and leaders in the Senior Class of 1964. SENIOR PARTY WAS HELD NIGHT BEFORE GRADUATION Pictured above is a lazy pool-side group of seniors who were obviously saving their energy for Vic and the Versatiles. The group includes Temple Blunt, Jimmy Jones, Mack Childress, Doug Hegameyer, Alex Rhyne, Mary Jane Ridgley, Herman Mallory, and Nina Hale. 168 The food committee ' s offering attracts a number of visitors. Among those pictured above are Mrs. Chris Johnson, Mr. Nelson Taylor, Mrs. Dee McKinney, Mr. D. K. Johnson, John Moore, Henry Johnson, Joan Longest, Linda Edwards, Ronnie Alfono, Mr. Cabell Luck, Kathy Ferrell, Sandy Smith, Harvey Rasnick, and John McClurkin. The Senior ' s chief cook and bottle washer, class president Fred Palmore, supervises the cooking and bottle washing at the Senior Class party. 169 Due to the size of Patrick Henry and the calibre of stu- dents here, listing all the awards and honors won by Patriots would be an impossible task. The following pages recognize some of the well known honors and some of those which are little known. These pages are in no respect a full account of the year ' s awards.

They are Toni Radler, Pettus Frazier, Carolyn Keyes, Lyn Letson, Virginia Vaughn, and head cheerleader Brenda Gibson. S.C.A. letters are given for outstanding and well- rounded participation in extracurricular activities Recipients of these letters in 1963 were Elizabeth Troxell, Margaret Knight, Pettus Frazier, Lyn Letson, Fred Palmore, Walter Hoye, Pat Carneal, Virginia Vaughn, Joan Longest, Sherry Swain, Charlotte Waldrop, Carolyn Rogers, Russ Palmore, Eleanor Parr, John McClurkin, and Brenda Gibson. lj§f M i Varsity baksetball players who will not return next year were given their name plates or letters or both. They are Kenny Hart, Frank Matro, Walter Hoye, Randy Pleasants, Dave Ellington, John Mc- Clurkin, Ron Grubbs, and Larry Gilman. Letters for the Group II Champions of baseball and track were awarded to a multitude. The recipients were B. Murphy, J. Cobb, J. Schmierer, P. Stans- bury, G. McLeod, D. Hall, R. Chisholm, T. Hall, R. Berry, C. Bowles, H. Whitlock, R. Grubbs, C. Walton, R. Johnson, D. Tate, B. Hale, B. Pleasants, and A. Jones. THE ASPECTS OF LEARNING ARE VARIED Learning at Patrick Henry is varied and includes gaining knowledge from profes- sional visitors such as Mrs. Sue Krost, a former Miss Virginia, who visited the school to help home-ec girls with their personal appearance. At times, just being re- sponsible for advertising and organizing coming events provided opportunities to grow. Practical learning through experiments is another facet of the education received. Seeing it happen is much more convincing than being told . . .it would happen -- if. BELOW: Jimmy Miller and Robert Graham work in the biology lab. TEACHERS ARE AN IMPORTANT ASPECT HERE Students often forget the many hours of work required outside of class by the teachers who must prepare themselves for classes and then evaluate the students ' efforts. Pic- tured above is Mr. D. K. Johnson hard at work on senior English papers. Humor shared between faculty and students brings them closer together. Mr. Jack Winn, Band Director, is pictured below with the stilts given him in order the he could come up to the Physical Ed Depart- ment ' s Miss Lois Lambert. Cooperation between students and faculty allows patriots to attain levels of competence that would be impossible alone. Pictured above is Mrs. Betty Carol Stevenson helping Sandra Vaughan with a project in Home-Ec. Athletics play an important part in learning by offering lessons in sportsmanship, teamwork, physical fitness, and just plain fun. Mr. Glenn Rudacille is pictured to the left with Ralph Johnson while Mr. Nelson Taylor, P.H. principal, looks on interestedly. Working as individuals with books and notes is perhaps as important an aspect as can be found at Patrick Henry. Pictured above concentrating in French class is Edward Leslie. As is illustrated at the right, students often pick the most unlikely spots to put their mentality to work. These girls are studying after school on the flower box in front of the gymnasium. 176 Modern educational methods mean more responsibility for students each year. Pictured above are Lyn Letson, Ray- Berry, and Steve Bartholomew working out accounts for the annual magazine drive conducted by students to assist in raising funds for school needs. All participating students benefit from learning to sell. BELOW Walter Hoye signs library passes for Betty Mallory, Harriet Priddy, and Edward Leslie in a student-run honor study hall held this year for the first time at Patrick Henry. There were no teachers in this study hall all year and students were their own bosses. 177 COMMUNITY SUPPORT MAKES OUR ORGANIZATIONS PATRICK HENRY GREAT 1830 RANDOLPH-MACON COLLEGE ™ 3 Ashland, Virginia An accredited liberal arts college for men with a national reputation for the success of its graduates.
