You enter half a step out of childhood and leave with an unsure step into adulthood. During these years many changes take place. Within these pages is a gallery of pictures symholically reflecting these changes. 4 FOREWORD FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION The hallmark of a good school is the quality of its teachers. This year we at Patrick Henry think we have been very lucky. Even though a large turnover of both faculty and administra- tion was effected, P.H. students have received their education from qualified and capable teachers. 7 PRINCIPAL MR. WATSON DURHAM As principal of Patrick Henry High School, R. Watson Durham reflects in his genuine smile and quiet manner a deep concern for the personal prob- lems of all who come in contact with him. His polite reserve, an enduring and a reassuring quality, com- mands the respect of everyone. 8 ASSISTANTS TO THE PRINCIPAL MR. JOHNSTON Dedicated to liis profession, Mr. John- ston tries not only to educate the mind, but also to teach the importanee of discipline. This year he has given up some of his classes in order to assist Mr. Durham. Handling discipline problems and keep- ing tabs on the students, are only two of Mr. Johnston’s duties. MR. HOWARD Few are the students who are not fami- liar with the smiling face of Mr. Howard as he meets the buses every morning and greets the students as they disembark. As a new addition to the faculty this year, Mr. Howard is a welcome asset. Besides his teaching duties, he has office responsi- bilities. These include the filing of bus re- ports and the disciplining of students at school and on the buses. MR. D. K. JOHNSTON h f t MR. F. H. HOWARD 9 As guidance counselor, Mrs. Quarles has an unending job. Her work with the students extends from the smallest eighth grader to the tallest senior. Her task in- volves the preparation of student schedules and a complete testing program. Seeing that each student makes the right choice and has a full and prosperous future is her ambition. She shows a deep interest and concern for each and every student at P.H. MRS. DORIS QUARLES Mrs. Buinpass has the almost impossible job of receptionist and secretary at Patrick Henry. Forever being interrupted by peo- ple needing help, she never loses patience and she goes about her task quietly. Her many tasks include keeping records, filing, answering the telephone, typing letters, and sending bills. With her warm smile and personality, she is a friend to every- one. 10 MRS. EVELYN BUMPASS Sorting mail is one of the many jobs which Mrs. Bumpass performs. � � , With a quiet dignity, Mr. Durham works in his office. Lena Robinson, who helps in the office during her study h all, consults with Mrs. Quarles about her career. ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Mrs. Rhoda Buckley Typing filing cards is only one of Mrs. Buckley’s many duties as librarian. Mr. Billy Gilmore Mrs. Allie Halbleib Mrs. Mona McClurkin Miss Catherine Painter The largest and one of the most inportant departments at Patrick Henry, the English De- partment, works diligently to further learning in literature as well as grammar. Through con- centrated effort, English teachers teach students to delve into the meanings of words and works of famous men and of those little-known to anyone. Knowledge of hundreds of topics is accumulated through researeh done in our school library under the expert supervision of our librarian, Mrs. Buckley. Mi ss Frances Pitchford Miss Clara Tiller All work and no play would make Johnny a dull boy. 12 HISTORY DEPARTMENT Mr. Charles Duff Mrs. Linda Luck Mrs. Ruth Moore Miss Audrey Nuckolls FOREIGN LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT Mrs. Moore shows the location of countries studied. Mr. Reynolds ponders the answer to a difficult French question. From the study of the three foreign languages offered, the P.H. student may earn knowledge not only of the Romans, French, or Spanish people themselves, but also a smattering of the cultures and lands of these groups as well. One can vicariously travel through South America or France or even re-fight the Gallic Wars. Mr. James Acosta Mrs. Elizabeth Martin Mr. Frank Reynolds M iss Allyne Shutters Patrick Henry’s excellent History De- partment allows students to study every- thing from the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome to the government of the United States of today. This year, many of the United States history classes as well as the Senior Government classes were given the opportunity to see our government at work through visits to the General Assembly which was meet- ing in Richmond. 13 MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT The latest techniques are employed in teaching math at Patrick Henry. By use of these methods, students can maintain close contact with the new- est concepts in math. Excellent courses in math are taught in every grade and one has the opportunity to study everything from Eighth Grade Math to College Ereshman Math. Mrs. Elsie Cage Miss Doris Joyner Mrs. Kathleen Pugh Mrs. Byrd Schmierer Mr. Marvin Scott Mr. Shoemaker explains a math problem to his class. The fundamentals of Trigonometry are well illustrated by Mrs. Cage. 14 SCIENCE DEPARTMENT The many state and national awards won by P.H. science students are the proof of the excellent preparation in Bi- ology, Chemistry, and Physics. This year an advanced course in Biology and Chemistry was offered to seniors who quali- fied. Science is a growing field, not only throughout the world but at Patrick Henry. Mrs. Blick answers some of the hundreds of questions asked her by her Chemistry students. Mr. Thompson observes his class at work. Mr. Frank Howard Mrs. Eleanor Tenney Mr. Frank Thompson Mr. Alfred Turner 15 BUSINESS DEPARTMENT Mrs. Burke shows her class how to alphabetize. Mrs. Betty Jo Batey Mrs. Patricia Burke Mrs. Jessie Campbell Mrs. Lucile Lane Through bookkeeping, typing, general business, and related courses, Patrick Henry students are offered a chance to prepare for a career in the field of busi- ness. These students not only study the fundamentals of each topic but also gain practice in the uses of each field of study. Many of these students are willing to give up their study halls in order to prepare for the future by working in the office as student secretaries. PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT Mr. Roger Bergey Miss Margaret Dowdy Mr. Glenn Rudacille Mrs. Anne Wiltshire All P.H. students are kept physically fit through a rigorous program of physical education. Here Coach Rudacille demonstrates the correct way to jump the low hurdles. 16 HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT Practical skills in the art of homemaking are learned in the Home Economics Department. Girls are taught good grooming, nutrition, and home care of the sick as well as proper cooking and sewing methods. Under expert guidance, students become well prepared for lives as homemakers. Mrs. Ivy Cross Mrs. Alma Durham Mrs. Betty Stevenson VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT Mr. Carlton Hall Mr. Harvey Seal Mr. Seal instructs Tommy Stanley in the use of proper dairy feeds and feeding methods. MUSIC DEPARTMENT The Music Department does much to add pleasure and enjoyment to the activi- ties and functions at Patrick Henry. Through participation at football games, Thanksgiving and Christmas assemblies, and the Spring Concert, this department gives evidence to its many hours of prac- tice. Mr. Michael Skwarlo Mr. Skwarlo and band members take a brief rest after long hours of practice. 17 CAFETERIA STAFF Despite the obstacles caused by the building of an addition to cafeteria, the efficient staff, headed by Mrs. Doggett, has continued to prepare meals which are well-planned, nourishing, and appetizing. At 11:45 A.M. every day there is a minor stampede to the cafeteria, caused by students who want to be first in the lunch line. Although there are some grumbles about the food, the lines are as long as ever. Taking the grumbles in their stride, the staff has the interest of all the students at heart. Left: Collecting lunch money is only one of Mrs. Doggett’s many duties as cafeteria manager. Below: Stacking dishes, Mrs. Ruth Shelton watches a student stack his dishes properly. Below: Mrs. Mallory prepares the plates of food as the lunch line goes through. 18 MAINTENANCE STAFF Right: Our maintenance crew repairs trouble spots quickly. Below: Clarence Dabney, our custodian, is always on hand when needed. Our custodians and maintenance crew have ren- dered faithful service. Their pride in keeping our school neat and attractive challenges each of us to a keener sense of responsibility in maintaining a school of which we can he proud. The bus mechanics work carefully to keep our buses on schedule. 19 Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores, Freshmen, and Eighth Graders compose the classes at Patrick Henry. These classes are not just a group of faces, but are individuals who are striving for the goal of an education. Classes are experiences, hard work, and memories. The Eighth Graders change, the Freshmen strive, the Sophomores mature, the Juniors prepare, and the Seniors leave be- hind a feeling of security for an unpredictable future. 21 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Lejt to Right: Sandy Smith, Vice-President; Joe Antonelli, Treasurer; Ray Berry, President; Laura Lane, Secretary; Shirley West, Reporter. 22 CLASS OF ' 64 The changes in the year ’63-’64 are milestones of the trip through our senior year. The changes are both external and internal — of people and places. With the falling of the leaves came the football season, and for Homecoming a change from the usual monsoon weather — the clear, bright night enhanced a 36-0 victory over Meadowbrook. It was during this time that many seniors got an early taste of college life with the help of Randolph Macon. Our class felt the loss of Mr. Acosta. He had been a beloved senior sponsor, an enthusiastic teacher, and a friend to all. Ray Berry, class president, helped to lead the seniors in the victorious magazine campaign. No one could forget the enthusiasm? ? ? The assassination of President Kennedy was a tragedy we will always remember as happening in our senior year. We are thankful that we were a part of the generation that lived when this great man was President. He set a wonderful example for us. December added the apprehension of College Boards and the Senior Tea to the excitement of the holiday season. Ev en though school was held the next day it didn’t damper the spirits of the Holly Ball. After the Christmas vacation we dis- covered that the face of Patrick Henry was under- going a change — the enlargement of the cafeteria was being arranged and new buildings were in progress. Wilbert Dudley Adams Joseph Antonelli Helen Faye Attkisson Kenneth Ervin Baker 23 CLASS OF ' 64 Exam time seemed to arrive all too quickly for the seniors. It was hard to realize we had less than four months of high school life left before us. The tensions which had mounted during exams found release with the rising popularity of the “Beatles,” a British quartet, whose records had been creating hysterics among the younger set for months. It seemed that Ray Chisholm was constantly con- fronted with problems — Peggy, Phyllis, Nancy, etc., while, with the coming of Spring, another of our classmates found roses to be an absorbing hobby — hey. Joe! Crossed fingers greatly increased on campus! While some were anxiously awaiting college ac- ceptances, others were trying to land a job or per- haps even a husband. Then came the Junior-Senior Prom, a sentiment- al gesture given by the Juniors, and held in a make-believe world of dreamy music and fake flowers. Recalling the plans and work of the pre- vious year we were quite content to sit back and enjoy someone else’s efforts. Our senior year had been filled with mixed emotions — hating to see the year end and longing to see what next year bolds in store. And so it ends with graduation and a sadness only half felt by the seniors. We have reached a goal — now it’s time to strive for another, to prepare to assume a place in the world and to accept the responsibili- ties of a complex society. Someday, much later, we will find this yearbook and smile with an ache at how young we looked then. And back will come the memories of that special time when life keeps changing and chang- ing, and everything, good or bad, is supercharged. 24 CLASS OF ' 64 Thomas Gilmer Boschen Yoland Lewis Bourne Maria Elizabeth Bratyszczenko Curtis Edward Brooks Betty Mildred Brown Charles Bryan Bowles 25 CLASS OF ' 64 26 CLASS OF ' 64 James Edward Cobb III Brenda Lee Corker Earl Thomas Crawley Linda Carrell Crews Linda Lee Davis Edith Mae Dishman Elizabeth Kimbrough Cross James Griffin Davis 27 CLASS OF ' 64 28 CLASS OF ' 64 Faye Ann Fletcher Barry James Gardner Forrest Ray Gilman Berkeley Diane Gordon Ellis Wayne Gordon Barbara Lee Gray Barbara Louise Hall Dwayne Rodney Hall 29 CLASS OF ' 64 30 CLASS OF ' 64 31 CLASS OF ' 64 Meade Addison Jones Edwin Jones I.aura Virginia Lane Christine Marie Lewis Rosemary Jones Ronald Kearse Harold Thomson King Earl Kelley Lane II 32 CLASS OF ' 64 Lewis Allen Lloyd Norman Linwood Long Clyde Nelson Mallory Jacqueline O’deal Mallory Ernest Lee Lowry James Franklin Luck r- - ntf. . f ' ' fr- .

MlOCrNf V« AN IMA.LS ■: IHIA Throughout high school Robert Weems has conducted research in the field of Paleontology. As a Senior, Robert can boast of many science honors on local, state, and na- tional levels. Robert has been named to the Honor’s Group of the Westinghouse Science Talent Search, and was President of the Va. Junior Academy of Science for 63-64. P.H. can now boast of a National officer in the Future Homemakers of America, as Jane Starke served as National FHA Vice-President, Southern Region for 63-64. Jane took an active part at the 64 convention in Chicago and carried a National officer’s project “Children and Families — Listen, Learn, Love.” 42 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS Left to Right: Harriet Holt, 2nd Vice-President, Beverly Bourne, Secretary, Cameron Wood, President, Janet Stansbury, First Vice-President, Gretchen Moore, Treasurer. 43 CLASS OF ' 65 We finally took our next to the last step toward the top of the ladder when we arrived in the fall of 1963 as Juniors. This was made evident when jve received our long awaited class rings. We could at last call our- selves “upper-classmen!” Our class team, with the help of Al-the Man Mills and many other illustrous members, pulled us through in sports and in the P.T.A. Membership Drive. Although our reward, the dance, was cancelled because of the great tragedy of Presi- dent Kennedy’s assassination, we were able to enjoy it later on. Spring came with new loves and fears with Bernie and Craig, or was it Tommy fighting for the title? As each month went by, something new was offered us: In March came the Merit Exams; April, prepar- ing for the greatest Prom ever, and in the big month of May came the frightening experience of college boards and our long awaited Prom, with all the long hectic hours of decorating behind us. We were able to enjoy the best night of our high school years, looking forward to the next year when it would be put on for us. As commencement exer- cises were being practiced for the Seniors, we were proud to have Beverly Bourne, Judy Spencer, Jerry Grubbs, F. C. Nuckols, and Cameron Wood to repre- sent us as Junior Marshals. Looking back over the study-filled happy hours and days of our Junior year, we realized that we had the right to be proud of our class, with such illustrous members as Charles working as Editor of our “Spark,” Jerry as Assistant Editor of the “Voice,” but there was also an extra special note of sadness for two twins. Nan and Gretchen, as they realized this was their last year of high together, perhaps their last year of school together. As the year came to an end, we waved good-by to it sadly, and then turned to look forward to the fall of 1965 with new hopes and expectations for our Senior year.

This bolds true for the Sophomores of Patrick Henry High School who now stand at their half way point in high school. We turn back to see the “Eight Ball,” Stunt Night, and Freshman Dance. We look ahead to our .class rings, Junior-Senior Prorn, and graduation. Patrick Henry has helped us to learn in.any things, especially a realization that we have a great deal more to learn. So we Sophomores, a little older and wiser, do look to the future with an eagerness and excitement that only Patriots can have.

No longer were we looked upon as “merely eighth graders.” Finally we felt like veteran working parts of our school and contributed our talents to many activities. One member of our class, Billy Smith, invaded the awesome realms of varsity football, while Bill Holman braved Mr. Reynolds wrath on the literary staff of the “Spark.” Throughout the year, we were led to new heights of accomplishment by our class officers, Ernest Bremner, Linda Johnson, Richie Linamen, and Carroll Chewning. With the arrival of the Homecoming Dance, our class was well represented by Patty Hewlett, Donna Gilman, and Martha Halbleib in the contest for Homecoming Queen. Our Freshman year behind us, we con- template with eagerness our coming years as stu- dents at Patrick Henry.

For this Class of ’68, there are many unusual and varied experiences for them. They have a clear record, and they must grope to find their way to maturity by trial and error. The Class of ’68 are under the capable leadership of their class officers: President, Cynthia Stansbury; Vice-President, Danny Watkins; Secretary, Bessie Palmore; Treasurer, Karen Lewis. By participating in various activities, the Eighth graders become accustomed to high school life. The most outstanding event of their first year was The Eighth Grade Dance, which was held in the Spring. They also made a good representation of their class in Stunt Night. This class has developed many talents. Becky Smith was the second highest salesman in the Magazine Drive. Quite a few classmen participated in sports. Mike Farrell and Kenny Webb received letters for their outstanding work in football. Many Eighth graders were mem- bers of the Chorus. Many played in the Band. For the largest class ever attending Patrick Henry, this year contained memories of hard work, mixed with enjoyment and fulfillment.

Through participation in these organizations one has the opportunity to grow in wisdom and in school spirit. The clubs also foster many ne y friendships. As the school grows so do its clubs and its student body. Each year there is change — new clubs being organized, new members, and new ideas. With this changing of ideas and members, the individual has a chance to realize the impor- tance of belonging and taking an active part. Through the organizations at P.H., the student not noly discovers himself, but others.

On the opening day of school, council meiubers could be seen everywhere, wearing ribbons denot- ing them as guides, registering students and an- swering questions. As always the Holly Ball was the highlight of the school year. Given by the S.C.A. as a non- profit dance and the first formal dance of the year, its large attendance showed eager interest. The S.C.A. carried out its responsibility of giv- ing devotions and through diligent work received a superior rating on their project at the State Convention. As their project for this year the Student Coun- cil members sold decals to raise money in order that a foreign exchange student may attend P.H. next year. 74 PARTICIPATE IN SCHOOL GOVERNMENT S.C.A. Advisors, Miss Nuckolls and Mrs. Pugh, are honored during the S.C.A. Assembly program. Every student at Patrick Henry is a member of the S.C.A, One student is shown here marking her ballot for S.C.A. Officers. As school drew to a close, there was stiff cam- paigning and competition as the students selected the officers of the S.C.A. for 1964-65. Cameron Wood was elected President. He will be assisted by Jim Smith, Vice-President; Julie Spencer, Secretary; Conde Palmore, Treasurer; and Earnest Bremner, Historian. Incoming S.C.A. President, Cameron Wood, accepts the gavel from outgoing president, Addison Jones, while other officers look on during the installation ceremonies. 75 PATRICK HENRY KEY CLUB L lo R, First Roiv: Mr. Durham; Joe Antonelli, Treasurer; Woody Tucker, Secretary; Cameron Wood, Vice-President; Berry Wright, President; Mr. Howard.

Its members strive to promote goodwill and excellence among the many facets of high school life. Becoming a member of the Key Club is recognition of outstanding character and leadership. The Key Club boys unselfishly give of their time and energy during the football season to help in the club’s concession stand. Members are often called upon by civic and community groups to help with major activities such as parking during the Community Polio Clinics. Winter months saw the Key Club boys attending their convention in Richmond. They con- cluded their year by making generous con- tributions to the school library, band, and athletic funds. Berry Wright and Jim Smith work in the Key Club Concession Stand during a football game. 76 EXEMPLIFIES SERVICE Left: Members of the Patrick Henry Key Club assemble in front of the administra- tion building before leaving for the con- vention at the John Marshall Hotel in Richmond.

Being a member of the National Honor Society is one of the highest honors a high school student can achieve. It is truly a great recognition because the members are chosen for their outstand- ing character, scholarship, leadership, and service. This year, members of the Patrick Henry Honor Society, accompanied by their sponsor, Mrs. Ruth C. Moore, at- tended the production of Hamlet at the Virginia Museum Theatre in Richmond, Virginia. In the spring at a school assembly, seventeen juniors were tapped into the society. 79 Sitting: Faye Attkisson; Betty K. Cross; Karen Clay. Standing: Robert Weems; Joe Antonelli; John Winston; Harriet Priddy; .lane Starke; Betsy Moore. HONORIS CAUSA for the sake of honor Honoris Causa encourages learning for its own sake. Those who have been received into the order have intellectual curiosity. Mental and moral discipline builds character which is the basis of leadership. Members of Honoris Causa are leaders whether or not they hold school offices. The satisfaction that comes from a job well done, the horizons that are broadened through study, the rewards that follow new interests make worth- while 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. Jane Starke and Faye Attkisson, members of Honoris Causa, read together after class. 80 QUILL AND SCROLL The Patrick Henry Chapter of Quill and Scroll is an organization formed to recognize outstanding talent in journal- ism. The Chapter is named for Paul F. Watkins, a pioneer of journalism in Hanover County. He was for years the editor of the county newspaper, the Hearld Progress. To become a member one must be a junior or senior in the upper third of his class; he must have done superior work on a school publication; he must be recommended by the advisor of the publication and approved by the Execu- tive Secretary of the Society.

SCIENCE RESEARCH MEMBERS WIN HONORS With the aid of Dr. and Mrs. Tenney, the Science Research Cluh members have actively participated in science competitions throughout the state. All club members must carry a research project and maintain a high average in their school work. Be- sides their own efforts, members also attend science lectures that are given in the Richmond area. Many of the club members have brought honor to themselves, their club, and their school by receiv- ing numerous local, state and national science awards. President of the club, Robert Weems, has been named to the Honors’ Group of the Westing- hous e Talent Search and is a winner in the Virginia Science Talent Search. Having received honorable mention in the Future Scientists of America, he has won 1st, 2nd, and Grand Prize Awards at the Patrick Henry, VJAS, and Randolph Macon Science Fairs. As 63-6-1 President of the VJAS, Robert won an honorary membership in the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Two students, Robert Weems and Robert Graham, were among the five finalists of Virginia in the Va. Junior Science, Humanities, and Engineering Sympos- ium in Charlottesville. These five went to the Na- tional JSHS Meeting in Washington. Only one other school in the nation sent two delegates to this meet- ing. Robert Graham also received honorable mention in Microbiology and the Major Catsby Jones Award at VJAS. 84 Mr. Powell explains the aspects of proteins to members of the Science Research Club.

Without the help of the boys in the projectionist club, under the leadership and guidance of Mr. Frank Thompson, this necessary part of our education would almost be impossible. Be- sides helping the teachers with the school projectors, record players, tape recorders, etc., they also help with the upkeep of the equipment and teach the new members the proper procedures to follow .when using it. 86 L-R: Derwood Brooks; Eugene Hall; Charles McKinney; Russ Goodwin; Frank Flippo. RADIO CLUB BUILDS SHORT WAVE SET The Patrick Henry Radio Club, though small, is quite efficient. Under the guidance of their sponsor, Mr. Howard, the club members have repaired the school’s radio equipment. They have also been able to gain radio contact with students in other states. Wading through inches of water on the roof of the school, club mem- bers have set up a radio antenna. By building a radio transmitter, they have increased their interest and improved their skill and compe- tence in the fascinating and growing field of radio electronics. Officers of the Radio Club: Frank Flippo; Eugene Hall; Dee Quarles. 87 FUTURE HOMEMAKERS THINK SERIOUSLY ABOUT MARRIAGE Every girl is interested in the topic “marriage”; but this year, the Patrick Henry Future Homemakers decided to look deeper into the re- sponsibilities of a homemaker — as a wife, mother, citizen, and individual. Guest speakers, skits, and individual projects brought to light the extreme importance of good preparation for marriage. The Rev. C. A. Lingle also presented The Hazards of Teenage Marriage to the student body dur- ing the FHA Assembly program. Cullen Johnson, co-ordinator of the Governor’s Program to Keep Virginia Safe and Beautiful, spoke to the North Anna Federa- tion during their Spring Rally. After his talk on safety, he delighted the girls with his singing. 88 Brenda Lloyd, Deanna Trivett and Mary Golden prepare cookies for the oven. To raise money, FHAers made and sold cookies.

Jane has served as State Treasurer and is currently Federation President and Na- tional Vice-President, Southern Region. During the year, each Future Homemaker took an active part- in money raising suppers; welfare projects; and the Annual Spring Rally of the North Anna Federation. Many members climbed the FHA Ladder of Personal Achieve- ment in the home, classroom, and chapter. This was demonstrated by the many, recipients of the Junior, Chapter and State Degrees. Representing the chapter at the ’64 State Convention, Old Point Comfort, were incoming officers, Betsy Isbell and Linda Sue Claytor; state officer candidate, Beverly Bourne; and nominating committee member, Jane Starke. Jane and Beverly also took an active part in the ’64 Na- tional Convention held in Chicago, Illinois. 89 PATRICK HENRY F.F.A. CHAPTER F.F.A. boys build farm trailers for sale to farmers. This gives the boys shop experience and helps to finance the chapter. F.F.A. OFFICERS, L-R: Bruce Brown, Sentinel; Simon Strong, Reporter; Norman Long, President; Tommy Gil- man, Vice-President; Roy Mills, Secretary. The Patrick Henry Chapter of the Future Farm- ers of America is one of the ten largest chapters in Virginia with a membership of 120. The chapter has carried out many activities dur- ing the year and has won several large individual awards. Roy Mills, secretary of the chapter, was selected as one of the two top F.F.A. poultry pro- ducers in the state and was awarded an all ex- pense-paid trip to the National Poultry Fact Find- ing Convention in Kansas City, Missouri, in t ' eb- ruary. Roy will also receive the top State Poultry award at the annual F.F.A. Convention, held at V.P.I. in June. Tommy Stanley has been selected as the top F.F.A. boy in forestry production in Virginia for 1963-64. Roth Tommy’s and Roy’s programs will be entered in the National Contests to be held in Kansas City in October. The chapter has put on several fund raising pro- grams this session to help defray expenses of chap- ter activities. The scrap metal drive netted over S300.00. Building and selling farm trailers added another $300.00. Members have also sold tractor cushions and screwdriver sets. The school area of nine acres, which the F.F.A. boys work, has given them a nice sum, as well as invaluable experience. 90 WINS MANY STATE AWARDS The chapter members built and installed ticket booths at the school football field this year. These booths have added a great deal to better handling of crowds attending our home football games. The chapter has taken part in activities with other chapters, such as, crops, livestock, soil, fores- try, shop judging, public speaking, and tractor driv- ing contests. Ten members of the chapter are candidates for the State Farmer Degree to be awarded at the State F.F.A. Convention, which will be held at V.P.I. in June. This is the highest award given by the state association. Tommy Stanley examines some of his young pines which won for him the honor of “Top Forestry F.F.A. boy in Virginia.” Tom Mauney, Henderwn Bivins and Colman Baughan Roy Mills checks on his week old baby chickens.

Chapter of the Future Business Leaders of America is a branch of the national F.B.L.A. organization, which serves America’s schools and communities. The Future Business Leaders manage the school supply store and help in the administration build- ing. At Christmas time, they helped needy families in the community; and during the year, they spon- sored a state-wide spelling test for business students at Patrick Henry. Attending the regional convention in Fredericks- burg, the girls won honorable mentions on their ex- hibit, which was centered around “How Teens Spend Their Money.” Four girls, Barbara Gray. Betsy Isbell. Connie Chishlom. and Joyce Min, were also sent to the State Convention in Roanoke.

Are you ready? Lights! Curtain! This is the beginning of many of the plays put on by the P.H. Dramatics Club. This year under the very capa- ble leadership of Mr. Gilmore, the Club presented “The Second Shepherd” during the Christmas Season. The Club also went to the Dramatics workshop in Charlottesville from which they gained a lot of fun and knowledge. Powder, paint, and hard work are the by-words of the young actors and actresses who express them- selves by assuming the characteristics of fanciful and factual persons. They learn not only acting and speech experience, but many of them learn make-up. lighting, and setting techniques. The Dramatics Club not only benefits the school by presenting plays for the enjoyment of the student body, but it also donates money to the Foreign Exchange Student Program. The only requirement to join the Dramatics Club is to have a genuine interest in participating in the plays and projects of the club. This requirement insures people willing to undergo the rigorous work necessary. Left to Right, First Row: B. Jones, K. Lewis, L. Pike, L. Satterwhite, S. Isaacs, R. Herrick. Second Row: G.

They also help Mrs. Buckley with inven- tory, checking out books, typing, and the upkeep of books. LIBRARY CLUB OFFICERS: Betsy Hawkins, President; Linda Lahocki, Vice-President; Rosemary Jones, Secretary. 98 NEW BOOKS During Library Week, April 12-18, the Library Club collected $71.72, which will enable the school to have more and better books. The Library Assistants col- lected money from each homeroom, letting the highest homeroom go to lunch five minutes early. Posters were also hung in each room, emphasizing the importance of reading and using the Library. Contributing a great deal to the school and to the individual student, the Li- brary has become an indispensable part of Patrick Henry.

The Boys’ Varsity Club exists for boys who have excelled in a major sport and have received a varsity letter. With the guid- ance of sponsors, Coaches Rud- acille, White and Bergey, mem- bers undertake numerous proj- ects during the year. To earn money for the purchase of Var- sity jackets for all members, the boys sold programs at foot- ball games and in the spring sponsored a Slave Sale which brought much excitement as well as dollars. During this auc- tion, the student who bid the highest amount of money for each club member received him as a slave for two days. The Boys’ Varsity Club is represen- tative of the great spirit and initiative shown by each mem- ber on the playing field. 3 102 A letter earned through a major girls’ sport or through cheerleading is the prerequisite to becom- ing a member of the Girls’ Varsity Club. The Girls’ Varsity Club, aided by the Boys’ Varsity Club, spon- sored the Annual Homecoming Dance. All plans including decorating, an outside pep rally, and the selling of mums were carried out with fun and co- operation. The Girls’ Varsity Club also helped “The Orator” by contributing money which they had received for playing the faculty in a game of volley- ball. The Club members are now making plans to earn money for the purchase of Varsity Club blazers for all members. They have also designed a red, white and blue varsity club insignia to be attached to the blazers. A member of the National Athletic Association, the Girls’ Varsity Club keeps uppermost in mind the importance of athletics and school spirit. The Girls’ Varsity Club sold mums for the Homecoming Game and Dance. Faye Attkisson and Randy Watkins are shown picking up their corsages from Varsity Club Ad- visers, Miss Dowdy and Mrs. Wiltshire.

The Music Appreciation Club is designed for stu dents who enjoy listening to music, whether it is classical or popular. After listening to music at meetings, members discuss the types and kinds of music. Many of the members have achieved Patrick Henry letters in Band and or Chorus. Each student in the club believes that beauty is found in music and that each note is far sweeter and more intricate that the instrument from which it came. To members of the Music Appreciation Club, where there is music, there is harmony, order, and propor- tion. The goal of the Music Appreciation Club is for each of its members to interpret music for him- self and to enjoy music for what it is. 104 OFFICERS; L-R: Keith Stansbury, Vice-President; Gwen Gammon, Treasurer; Janet Stansbury, Secretary; Marvin Harris, President.

Geraldine Brown, member of the Drawing Club, enjoys the mechanics of drawing. The Patrick Henry Drawing Club, under the direction of Mr. Charles P. Melton, has helped to heighten the creative interest of many students who enjoy art. Their group undertakings such as projects of commercial art have helped to give them a deeper and fuller understanding of the mean- ing of art, whether as a profes- sional job or an amateur’s hobby. The officers of the Drawing Club for ’63-’64 are President, Tommy Boschen; Vice-President, James Vass; Secretary, Scott Wolfe; Treasurer; Herbert Harper. 105 CHORUS PRESENTS MUSICAL L-R, First Row: B.

The Patrick Henry High School Chorus, under the direc- tion of Michael Skwarlo, added interest and variety to many activities of the school year. Together with the band they presented a selection of Christ- mas carols which made an ex- cellent Yuletide Assembly. This year three delegates were sent to All State Chorus. These were Marvin Harris, Keith Stansbury and Janet Stansbury. In the spring much V ork went into concentrated practice for the Music Festival which gave them a HI rating. Keith Stansbury, Janey Stansbury, and Marvin Harris were delegates to All State Chorus. 106 COMEDY GOLDEN RIVER The cast, looks on as Ma, Glenda Waldrop, and Pa, Keith Stansbury, dance. There was a change this year. Instead of having an operetta as in previous years, the chorus pre- sented a musical comedy, “Golden River,” which was fun for all. In addition to the Gentlemen and Boys of the Choir from the Church of St. James the Less, The Chorus sang for the Commencement Sermon. They also sang for the Graduation exercises. Both appear- ances gave the activities a special touch. Joan Eddleton and Wayne Murphy are in deep thought while Ma and Jim Walsh have a private conversation. “Thridmaphobia,” fear of hair or fur, overcomes Harriet Holt in a scene from “Golden River.” 107 PATRICK HENRY BAND PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. The P.H. Band members put in many long hours of practice, but the result is excellent music and perfect marching formations. Glenda Waldrop and Woody Tucker, in marching forma- tion, wait for the signal to march. The Band marched into the new year by partic- ipating in the Ashland Rescue Squad parade. They also added to the cheer section at the football games. For the first time the Band participated in the Christmas parade in Ashland, giving a Christ- mas concert afterwards. Another first this year for the Band was the honor of being asked to play at the Camptown Races. They were represented at All State Band by Estelle Bowman, and at the workshop Band by Rich- ard Eck and David Johnson. After taking part in the District Festival the Band marched in the Apple Blossom Festival. The Band puts in many hours of practice much like a football team. However, practice makes per- fect. The Band is not perfect, but they do try to provide excellent entertainment for the school and community. 108 STRIVES FOR PERFECTION PRACTICING: Many hours are spent during the band period and after school, perfecting the routines and music for special occasions. In preparation for the football games and the Apple Blossom Festival, the Band spent approximately 4 months in practicing daily during 4th period, and almost every day after school. The Band also spent many nights and afternoons preparing for the con- cert season. After having a full and enjoyable year under the capable direction of Mr. K. M. Skwarlo, the Band added final touches to the departure of the Seniors by playing for the Senior Assembly, Class Day, and the Graduation Exercises. Above: DISCUSSING; Joyce Stanley, Steve Jones, Wayne Houchins, Carter Davis, Charles Beasley, and David Johnson talk over details with music director, Mr. Michael Skwarlo.

Band at the annual Homecoming Pep Rally. L.-R.: Wanda Howard, PATRICK HENRY LETTER GIRLS Newly organized this year, the letter girls march with the hand at all parades and home foothall games. Heads. Charlotte Carter and Linda Dobbins, carry the Patrick Henry banner and share the re- sponsibility of directing the girls in marching tech- niques. The letter girls with the aid of the majorettes performed a mock football game at the end of the season. In the spring, they decided to purchase new uni- forms which would resemble those of the band mem- bers. The letter girls truly have added and will con- tinue to add a spark of beauty and enthusiasm to the Patrick Henry Band.

AND MAJORETTES After two exciting weeks of technique training at William and Mary College, the P.H. majorettes felt more confident. Early in August, they started learn- ing new routines for the long awaited football games ahead. At Homecoming, the head majorette Harriet Holt and assistant head Phyllis Hyman awed the crowd as they twirled majestic fire batons after which the majorettes participated in a mock football game. During the year, the majorettes marched in numer- ous parades, performed during school assemblies, and had the honor of twirling at a Randolph Macon Football Game. To complete a most successful sea- son. the majorettes participated in the Apple Blos- som Parade at Winchester, Virginia.

This year for the first time, a group of students under the direction of Miss Allyne Shutters en- deavored to publish a Patrick Henry Literary Mag- azine. Composed of the best original material sub- mitted by students, the magazine contains art work; short stories, poetry, and essays. Tina Heuer was chosen Editor in Chief and Mar- garet Moody and Karen Clay, Assistant Editors. In the spring, through the combined effort of the stu- dents, teachers, and staff, a new publication, “The Orator,” was produced, one which will become an- other tradition at Patrick Henry High School.

Working long and hard hours, the newspaper staff members have created a publica- tion of great distinction. “The Spark” captured an- other Honor Award at the S.I.P.A. Convention this year. The Spark and its staff members are known for many things other than an excellent coverage of school events. Everyone knows how familiar Eve S. Dropper has become; and the year wouldn’t be the same without those rocking Spark Sock Hops and those fattening candy sales, sponsored by the news- paper staff members to raise much needed money. Published twice a month, “The Spark,” covering news data ranging from athletic contests to “Fads Fashions,” and such outstanding issues as Home- coming, April Fool, and Graduation, never fails to add new subscribers with each publication. The de- mand is so great that the planned enlargement of the paper for next year is a necessity. With the able and ever-continuing help of their advisors, Mr. Frank Reynolds and Mrs. Allie Hal- bleib, both literary and business staff members have gained valuable experience. “The Spark” generates local enthusiasm. Mary Lou Moore appears to be engrossed in her news- paper as a friend looks on.

This is made even easier by the fact that Patriot athletes sel- dom lose. Only once in the history of Patrick Henry have our coaches fielded a losing team. As with the students, P.H. has produced many out- standing athletes and should continue to do so. PATRIOTS HAVE B. Roiv: Ray Markey, Ru? ' Palniore, Robert Ridout. F.

SEASON HIGHLIGHTS Patrick Henry 6 Varina 0 In a game marked by all out effort and pursuit, Patrick Henry beat Varina 6 to 0. After a tight three quarters with neither team managing to score, quarterback Robert Ridout pushed across for a touchdown. The victory marked the Patriots’ first grid win over Varina in the school’s history. Patrick Henry 0 Lee Davis 12 Patrick Henry, which seemed sure of a District Cham- pionship, was the victim of fate as Lee Davis managed to win 12-0. Playing not even close to average ball, the Patriots just couldn’t seem to get their offense going as Lee Davis twice mounted scoring drives. 122 Henrico 13 Ralph Johnson breaks away on a long touchdown drive. Patrick Henry 26 Fullback Ralph Johnson got the Patriots off to a fast start scoring on the third play from scrimmage. The Warriors scored twice to make the score 13 to 6. However, the Patrick Henry defense held as Punk Walton blocked a punt and Bruce Spencer ran the ball over for the score. Johnson scored another TD and extra point and Billy Priddy pushed over the last effort with Moser adding the extra point as Patrick Henry won 26-13. Patrick Henry 13 Tucker 12 Playing their last game of the season the Patriots made the effort worthwhile. Ronnie Tyson scored in the first quarter on an 18 yard run with Johnson adding the conversion. In the second quarter Bruce Spencer hauled in a 35 yard scoring pass from Johnson. Tucker scored twice in the second half, but were held to a loss as the Patriots finished the season with a 7-2-1 record. BACKS: F. C.

CHEERLEADERS Pep and spirit are the traits of the J.V. cheerleaders who are always ready to boost the morale of the team and to lead the school to victory.

Paced by “Bones” Russell and hard-hitting Bob Street, the Junior Patriots compiled a 1-3-1 record under the capable coaching of Roger Bergey, the lone win coming against Varina. Losing by small margins throughout the season, the J.V.’s were constantly hampered by injuries to key figures, including the starting quarterback. Lacking a strong breakaway runner to complement the powerful running of fullbacks Bob Street and Billy Webber, the Patriots relied on defense, limiting their opponents to less than 8 points a game. The defense forward wall was led by Danny Leonard and Howard Smith, who consistently threw opposing run- ners for large losses, and almost always came through with the critical play. 128 COMING YEARS Patrick Henry 13 Patrick Henry 0 Patrick Henry 6 Patrick Henry 0 Patrick Henry 0 Varina 0 Meadowbrook 6 Tucker 6 Lee Davis 19 Henrico 6 Co-captains Banton and Linamen An unknown Patriot runner is brought down as Butch Russell looks on. 129 1963-64 PATRIOT 1963-64 TEAM, L. to R.: Manager John Wayne Bruce, Johnny Mallory, Charlie Ferguson, Calvin Stanley, Jeff Spencer, Jim Dyson, Russ Palmore, Dwyane Hall, Pete Stansbury, Bucky Hale, Coach Roger Bergey. Palmore fires a jumper against Matoaca Plagued by injuries and a lack of height, Patrick Henry recorded its only losing season since the school was begun. Undermanned at almost every game, the Patriots ended up the season with a 3-11 record, defeat- ing only Midlothian and Mato aca. Well coached by Roger Bergey, former William Mary standout, Patrick Henry played a better brand of ball than their record indicated as they lost several games by small margins. The Patriots, despite lack of height, looked impressive and on oc- casion got together and played like champions. Standouts for Patrick Henry were Jim Cobb and Russ Palmore, who consistently played good ball. Johnny Mallory, Dwyane Hall, and Pete Stansbury also gave fine performances. All in all, the Patriots’ season was not the best, but it initiated a fine new coach who deserves much better. 30 BASKETBALL SEASON PHHS.,.. 69 Matoaca 38 PHHS- . 33 Tucker . .. 55 PHHS -- .. --61 Midlothian 50 PHHS 39 Varina .. 41 PHHS _ - ....40 Lee Davis .. . ... . 67 PHHS._ _ 48 Henrico .. 61 PHHS.___.- 62 Midlothian .. 54 PHHS..._. 50 Meadowbrook ... 52 PHHS 42 Varina ... 48 PHHS -- .56 Henrico . .. .... 63 PHHS . 50 Meadowbrook .... 67 PHHS , 37 Tucker .... 64 PHHS 40 RMA 78 PHHS .... 52 Lee Davis .... 66 PHHS-. - ... -_._48 Matoaca .... 42 PHHS 43 Lee Davis .. 49 Jim Cobb scores against Warriors Patriots add two as Cobb shoots.

PATRIOTS FINISH SECOND Led by Ralph Johnson, Bucky Hale, and Charles Ferguson. Patrick Henry had a fine 10-4 record in the newly formed Capital District, but lost the championship hy one game to Henrico, thus break- ing a four year domination of area baseball. Hav- ing six hitters batting above .300, Patrick Henr) ' effected all of its losses by errors. Looking like champions at bat. the Patriots frequently looked like clowns in the field, but nevertheless managed a second place tie with Tucker. Ray Markey, Johnny Mallory, and Billy Priddy led the mound corps while Ralph Johnson provided the long ball. The Patriots are looking forward to a fine season next ear with both pitchers and five regulars coming back. 9 I Paul Barnett beats out a single against Lee-Davis. 136 SEASON ' S RECORD Paul Barnette stretches as Lee-Davis runner is called out.

John Matro posed a double threat leading the pitching department with a 4 and 0 record and a batting average of .366. Mike Six and Billy Murphy led in the hitting department with .633 and .474 respectively. With almost the entire squad coming back from the previous year, the J.V.

VARSITY TRACK Having lost only one man from last year’s district champion team, Patrick Henry’s cindermen were confident of being Capital District Champions. However, lacking a sprinter, they came out 2nd at the District meet, losing to a fleet Tucker crew. Led by Don Tate, Punk Walton and Buck Hale, Patrick Henry took a commanding lead during the field events, but was unable to hold it as P.H. sprint- ers could not score. The meet finally ended up with Tucker winning the relays and the match by a nar- row margin. At the State Meet in Lexington, Patrick Henry’s representatives did little, excepting Don Tate’s Repeti- tion as State Discus Champion. Tate set a new record in the process, and scored the Patriots’ only points for the day. Patrick Henry ended up the year with a 5-4 record and is looking forward to next year, with standouts such as Don Tate, Jo Schmierer, and Bucky Hale coming back. 140 VARSITY TRACK SCORES P.H.H.S. 96 Matoaca 22 P.H.H.S 89 Lee-Davis 29 P.H.H.S .. 56 Varina ... . . 62 P.H.H.S .92 Meadowbrook 26 P.H.H.S. 78 Henrico . ...40 P.H.H.S. . 8.3 Midlothian _ 35 P.H.H.S. 55 Tucker . . 62 P.H.H.S .. .46 Benedictine . . 72 P.H.

White, had an unsuccessful but re- warding season. Although the J.V. cindermen fin- ished the season with a one win and three losses record, they established thirteen out of a possible fourteen new records. New records were set in every event except pole vault. Ronnie Clark, and “Bones” Russell led the team in scoring and consistently placed first in their re- spective events. Other consistent scorers for the J.V. track team were Howard Smith, Odell Glasco, John Benton, and Tommy Gilman. The end of the season was highlighted for some J.V. track men by partic- ipating in the last Varsity meet.

Varina .......69 143 FEATURES This year has seen a marked change in Patrick Henry, both in the school itself and in the stu- dent body. There have been honors won, and the assassination of our President, which certainly had an effect on everyone. Construction has been a part of this change, as classrooms and an ad- dition to the cafeteria have been added. Patrick Henry has been affected by many things this year, sometimes sadly, sometimes joyously, but each and every event will have a part in the shaping of our school in the future. 145 CHANGE IS NECESSARY IN The first step of any building project is to clear the land, for nothing must stand in the way of progress. FROM WINDOW, TILES, BRICKS, AND PAINTS COME FINISHED BUILDINGS I i ' Below: The second step is to begin to build, to lay the foundation. i 146 THE LIFE OF A SCHOOL Dodging piles of bricks and buckets of paint and detouring around wet cement are all parts of the change that has taken place at P.H. this year. Once again the school has been changed by the addition of new buildings. Engulfed by a world of surveyors, masons, painters, and electri- cians, students watched this amazing trans- formation. Old hockey fields gave way to new classrooms, and sidewalks and grass plots to additions to the gymnasium. Even walls were not safe as the cafeteria was enlarged. However, even with the slight discom- fort, Patriots were able to realize that from all the bricks, windows, tiles and paints, would come finished buildings. Change is a necessary part in the life of a school, for without this the school would soon become obsolete. After the foundation has been laid, the structure starts to rise, grad- ually higher and higher. The finished product! After many weeks of hard labor, the project is completed and ready for use. 147 PATRICK HENRY STUDENTS OBSERVING, EXPERIMENTING, STUDYING Joe Antonelli and Addison Jones conduct experiments Students carry on individual studying in the cafeteria study during their advanced chemistry course. hall.

Photography happens to be a favorite of Robert Lindenzweig and Frank Flippo. 150 THROUGH Kelly Lane leads the senior class in a hootenanny on their return trip from Hanover Courthouse. Carolyn Morgan, Faye Fletcher, and Diane Gordon seem quite amused over something. FUN, FRIENDS, TEAMWORK Phys. Ed. girls prepare for a strenuous hockey game. Team sports develop co-operation as well as co-ordination. 151 FACULTY NOMINATES AND SANDY SMITH Strolling through the corridors of Patrick Henry without visualizing the ever present smile and warm “Hello” of Sandy Smith is certainly a marked rarity. Whether decorating for a dance, playing on the Girls’ Basketball squad, or simply at- tending an assembly, Sandy’s presence is known and appreciated by all her fellow stu- dents. Numerously called on to represent her school, Sandy Smith has depicted the complex virtue of responsibility, throughout her years at Patrick Henry. JIMMY COBB Plato said, “Physical and Mental fitness go hand and hand.” This combination is extremely realized at Patrick Henry in the large frame of Jimmy Cobb. Elected to “All-district” honors in both football and basketball, Jimmy has perfect- ly demonstrated that most needed quality — sportsmanship, both on and off the play- ing field. As co-captain of the basketball team, and Vice-President of the Varsity Club, Jimmy has been both an inspiration and a goal of future athletes at P.H.H.S. 52 STUDENTS ELECT BERRY WRIGHT Versatility is the trademark of Berry Wright. His activities which range from athletics to Key Club President, to honor in the classroom, are never replaced by his irresistible and won- derful personality. This personality is experienced and guar- anteed by all who come in contact with Berry. Rough spots and problems of school life are smoothed and solved by his reassuring and selfless attitude. Patrick Henry will sorely miss the contribu- tions and attainments of Berry Wright, however, these and many more of his accomplishments will always be remembered by both student and teacher, in the years to come. Jtf- KATHY FARRELL Voted the “Best Citizen” of her class, among multitudes of other honors, Kathy Farrell ex- emplifies the “All-around” girl at Patrick Henry. Her varied curriculum, which ranges from S.C.A. Homeroom Representative, to President of the National Honor Society, has brought to Kathy the esteem of her fellow students, faculty and administration. Though the burden of her school and social activities are extensive, Kathy’s effervescent per- sonality and charm has never been sacrificed. 153 TOP TEN STUDENTS ADDISON JONES Dedicated and trustworthy, Addison Jones has guided the Patrick Henry stu- dent body with extraordinary leadership. Through the years at P.H. he has time- lessly given of himself to his school which he has represented so well. His high school record includes par- ticipation in most every capacity from all district honorable mention in foot- ball to SCA President. Since the beginning, man has been forced to meet varied and sundry chal- lenges. Addison encounters new chal- lenges with that extra trait of determina- tion, which has brought him the amiabil- ity of all. HARRIET PRIDDY Far too infrequently does one find the much desired but seldom attained assets of loyalty, intelligence, and a winning per- sonality. however, Patrick Henry is proud to have these qualities combined in the person of Harriet Priddy. Harriet’s record is phenominal. She is a member of honor organizations, and President of one, the Beta Club. Certainly her most creditable accomplishment is the editorship of the 1964 “Voice.” In all these facets, Harriet has proven herself as a leader of tomorrow, and a friend of everyone. 154 AT PATRICK HENRY RUSS PALMORE Personality, and athletic ability and an over all participation in school activities have helped make Russ Palmore one of the top students around the P.H. campus. As a portrait of leadership, he has served his fellow students well as Vice-President of the SCA and President of the Varsity Club. Russ is a very picturesque athlete as he has excelled in almost every sport, bringing dignity and re- spect to him and his school. At the end of the 1963-64 school year, Russ Palmore will leave the sidewalks and classrooms of Patrick Henry forever. Behind him will remain a pictorial sketch of his smiling face and school spirit. NANCY MOORE Poise is certainly an underlined characteristic of Nancy Moore. This poise is present both in school activities and extracurricular partici- pation. Her leadership is displayed by her office of President of the Dramatics Club and by her membership on the “Voice” staff. Nancy has also filled the position of Secretary of the Student Council with unparalleled efficiency in a very astute manner. Patrick Henry is certainly fortunate in that it will have the suggestions and helpfulness of Nancy Moore for another year. 155 FOR 1963 — 1964 JUDY SPENCER The seldom-possessed traits of warmth and sincerity are found in Judy Spencer. A member, and more recent officer, of the Student Council through all of her high school career, Judy never fails to make an impression as one of the most energetic and capable leaders at Patrick Henry. Her activities, however, do not stop with School Government, as she has held the en- viable posts of cheerleader, assistant editor of the “Spark,” community leader, and church leader.

Junior Science, Humanities, and Engineering Symposium held in Charlottesville. 159 JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY The morning of November 22, 1963, marked an average day in the life of Patrick Henry. But by aft- ernoon. a cloud had hovered not only over our school but our nation as well. Rumors flashed through the school like the light- ning of a summer storm, striking each victim with disbelief — “The President has been shot!” Faces en- tered the class rooms sixth period tense and appre- hensive. What had started out to be an ordinary Friday was ending with a tragedy which would affect each student individually. We stood motionless — shocked and unable to find instant comprehension for the tragedy which had 160 occurred. The President of the United States had been assassinated! We watched the flag being lowered to half mast against the backdrop of a grey, sombre sky. A silence fell over the school as we bowed our heads in remembrance of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, a courageous humanitarian who gave his life striving for the cause in which he so fervently believed — freedom for all men. We as the youth of America must remember the message that he gave us in his inaugural address — “Ask not what your country can do for you — but what you can do for your country.” IN MEMORY OF JOHN F. KENNEDY With solemn faces, teachers, students, and visitors at Patrick Henry all gather around the office radio to hear the most recent news of the assasination of our thirty-fifth President. Left: Immediately after confirmation of President Kennedy’s death, the school flag was lowered to half mast. The flag remained in this position for thirty days of mourning in honor of our late president. Above: Lying in state in the Capitol Rotunda, the casket of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, draped hy our American flag, is viewed for the last time hy many of those who loved and honored him. 161 P.

Sandy Smith, a senior, was crowned Homecoming Queen at half time; and the Patriots stomped Meadowbrook, a 39-0 Victory. Pictured to the left are Homecom- ing Princesses, Martha Halbleib, Kathy Far- rell, and Patty Hewlett. 163 A SUCCESSFUL HOME- COMING TAKES WORK Above: John Winston picks up the “mum” which he ordered from the Varsity Club girls. Besides sponsoring the dance, the Var- sity Club sold the student body chrysanthe- mums to wear during the Homecoming fes- tivities. Credit should be given the P.H. Cheerleaders, Band, and Majorettes for their excellent performance during Homecoming. Special recognition should also be given the P.H. Football Team for their winning fight for victory. But we should never forget the many indi- viduals who worked tirelessly without credit to carry out a most successful Homecoming Season. Above: Unknown by most, several Patrick Henry students climb high as they decorate the goal posts for the fast approaching Homecoming game. Right: Behind the scenes. Miss Nuckolls and Mrs. Cage concoct their “special” punch for the Homecoming Dance. 164 AUTUMN WITH ITS NEWNESS There is always a big but orderly rush to the first assembly of the year. Just after receiving their 1963 Annuals, students could not restrain from reading each page even while walking to class. JUNIORS RECEIVE CLASS RINGS Emerald, ruby, onyx, whatever the stone, the coveted class ring repre- sents tmd means as much to every upper classman at Patrick Henry. THE 1963 ANNUAL IS DISTRIBUTED Left: Juniors and seniors learn valuable facts about the F.B.I. during a discussion with a government employee. 165 FALL ACTIVITIES EXPRESS SPIRIT AND FUN Left: Tommy King and Charles Bowles add the noise of horns to the yells of senior boys, contribut- ing to the Senior Class yell during a pep rally com- petition.

Nuckolls, Cage, Burke, Pugh, and Dowdy discuss basketball plays before the big game with the girls’ basketball team. 166 EVEN THE MONTHS OF FALL ARE FULL There is always mass confusion and excitement when the seniors board the buses for their trip to Hanover Court- house. The seniors proceed quietly to the gym where they will be honored at the first Senior Assembly. TRIPS, SPEECHES, PORTRAITS ARE PART OF SENIOR ACTIVITIES Linda Beard poses patiently for her long awaited senior portrait. Faye Attkisson waits quietly for her senior picture in cap and gown. 167 Practicing carols in Spanish class, students prepare for the Annual Christmas Assembly, where all language departments presented a song fest in foreign tongues.

SOPHOMORES ARE SUCCESSFUL WITH SHAMROCK BALL Green semi-formals, a dreamy band, and fun are memories of the big late winter dance, sponsored by the sophomores — “The Shamrock Ball.” But the sophomores had the most mem- ories of all, troubles with chicken wire and green and white tissue paper, the tendency to lose orders for green and white corsages, and the futile making of balloons for decoration. A suc- cess, designated by all, this dance is something which the class of ’66 can look back on with pride. Ann Curtis Palmore and Jimmy Cobb demonstrate t heir dancing techniques. 170 VARIED ACTIVITIES I Shep Webb and John Winston, members of the creative English class, take part in the play, “The Shoemaker’s Wife.” Many students volunteered to clean the school grounds in preparation for the Annual Career Night, which offered them a chance to discuss many different occupations. Patrick Henry Seniors finally arrive back at school after an exciting day of visiting the Virginia General Assembly. State legisla- tive procedures became alive to the students while they viewed the senate and house in session. 171 KNOWLEDGE IS GAINED THROUGH Paul Barnett and Coach RudaciUe look on as Malcolm Staton jumps for a ball during a basketball game in phys. ed. Steve Patterson draws a map of NW Europe for use in his history class. BOOKS, CHARTS, TESTS, AND PARTICIPATION Various tests are given to students at Patrick Henry to measure With the aid of books and pictures, Judy Belk gives a talk to her their abilities and interests. Through the results of these tests, fellow classmates, students are guided in choosing courses and careers. 172 PERSONALITIES ARE DEVELOPED Donna Gilman, deep in thought, sits quietly. A clear open mind and a willingness to think for yourself are character- istics which are neces- sary for development of mind and body. BY BEING ONE ' S SELF School life — the people, events, and thoughts at school — all have a direct contribution to the build- ing of a student’s personality and the molding of his character. Almost half of a teenager’s waking hours are spent at school where, he contributes and is contributed to. Friends and babits are made. Knowledge and interests are gained. But whoever the person and wherever the seho ' ol, a student does his best and becomes a more interesting and mature person by being himself. Mr. Duff and Mr. Shoemaker make fun of “Beatle,” Mickey Smith. Being able to choose your own friends and activities is a freedom insured all Americans. However, it is up to the individual to make the proper choice. Choosing that which will best bene- fit himself and those around him is usually not the view of the conformist. 173 SCA ELECTION WEEK ENDS Yeh, Yeh, Yeh! The P.H. Beatles are all routing for Cameron Wood for SCA President— Bobby Green on drums; W. Adams with guitar: Billy Grey and Bemie Pleasants as singers. Posters were everywhere. The handing out of cam- paign buttons increased steadily. But the hard work of the campaign managers and nominees for SCA Of- fice did not end until after the fabulous campaign as- sembly when the students returned to their home rooms for voting. Left: Campaign Manager, Toni Radler displays a picture of Judy Spencer, urging everyone to vote for her A-OK Candidate. Campaign gimmicks during the assembly ranged from extra long scrolls made of tissue paper to the P.H. Beatles in person. 174 WITH FINE SLATE FOR ' 64- ' 65 Cameron Wood, who was elected president of the SCA for ’64-’65, gives his campaign speech during the assembly which termi- nated the SCA Election Week. To his left are Jim Smith. Vice-President Elect and Conde Palmore, Treasurer Elect. With wooden crutches as support, Ernest Bremner presents a winning campaign speech for the office of SCA Historian. Julie Spencer, Secretary Elect, asks the student body for their support during her victory campaign speech. 175 STUNT NIGHT IS SUCCESS Ann Sale patiently teaches ballet to her graceful friend, Donnie Tate, in one of the Juniors’ winning stunts, “Me and My Shadow.” It takes a lot of imagination to carry through such a successful Stunt Night as the annual event in 1964. However, the fun involved and the competi- tive spirit developed are proof of the success to the participants as well as the viewers. Again this year, the class of ’65 received top honors of the night for their humorous and entertaining Dwayne Hall, alias “Coach Bergey,” demonstrates his muscular power to Ray Berry, the M.C. of the Senior Stunt, Teacher for a Day. stunts, “Me and My Shadow” and “Lizzie Bordon.” The graduating class stole second place with their take offs on teachers and college boards.

Chris Coffin is shown with his prize winning project on the habitual life of the snake. The Patrick Henry Bios Club sponsors the annual county science fair to give Hanover County science students a chance to show the work they have been doing throughout the year. There are awards in six categories with a grand prize for the best exhibit at the fair. Research on Virginia Miocene Animals gave Robert Weems the ’6T Grand Prize. The Virginia Junior Academy of Science meets an- nually in Charlottesville. It is an organization dedi- cated to bringing out the scientific talent of Virginia high school youths. This year, Robert Weems, out- going president of the Academy, and Robert Graham, incoming secretary, received several high awards at the meeting. Many members of the Patrick Henry Bios Club and Science Research Club attended the ’64 Meeting of the Virginia Junior Academy of Science, Charlottesville, Virginia, at which they helped with registration. 178 WINCHESTER WELCOMES BAND Lettergirls use colorful pom poms in their marching routine. Band members make final preparations for the Apple Blossom Parade. Leaving home early in the morning, the Patrick Henry Band, Majorettes, and Lettergirls reached their long awaited destination, Winchester, Virginia, about 2 P.M. on a Thursday afternoon. And even four miles of marching in the rain and cold that day did not dampen their high spirits for they were part of a beautiful parade, held during the Apple Blossom Festival. Many sleepy faces were viewed at school the next day; but at the same time, fantastic stories were being told of the excitement over seeing President Johnson, who had attended the festival over which his daughter Lucy Baines had reigned. Months of planning and money raising went into Patrick Henry’s festival preparation; but months of memories still remain. Linda Dobbins and Charlotte Carter get ready to carry the Patrick Henry banner. Heading the formation, Michael Bowles leads the march ing band.

Many hours of work paid off when Prom night finally arrived. 180 The faculty and guests enjoy watching the fun and frolic of the younger generation. An evening of enchantment and make-believe came to Patrick Henry this Spring with the annual Junior- Senior Prom. This year with the theme of “Camelot” many hours of hard work went into the preparations, but on the night of May 8, everyone felt the task had been well worth the effort. Dancing to the music of the Encores, long formal dresses, and white din- ner jackets all helped to make the night one to re- member. Seniors and their dates form the Senior Figure, after which there was a special dance for them only. SENIORS VISIT U. S. CAPITAL The Senior Class of 1964 is shown outside the United States Capitol in Washington, D. C. Their trip itinerary included the Archives Building, F.B.I. Building, Smithsonian Institute, and a session of the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives. For bus drivers, teachers, and students alike the day was hectic but fascinating and fun. 182 SENIORS ENJOY FINAL ASSEMBLY ■r Ray Berry, President of the Senior class, welcomes the seniors and the guests to the final Senior Assembly. Mr. W. Nelson Taylor, a friend of the students and former Principal at P.H., gave the address at the Assembly. He divided his speech into three phases: Past, Present, and Future. Immediately following his speech, the Chorus sang the Alma Mater. The Senior Superlatives are Betsy Hawkins, Harriet Priddy, Sandy Smith, Jane Starke, Forrest Gilman, Linda Beard, Rob- ert Weems, Audrey McCauley, Kathy Farrell, Russ Palmore, John Winston, Bruce Spencer, and Addison Jones. Junior Class Marshals, Judy Spencer, F. C. Nuckols, Beverly Bourne, Jerry Grubbs, and Cameron Wood, have many responsibilities in the weeks before and during graduation. Here, they are moving chairs from the cafe- teria to the gym for the Senior Assembly. 183 CLASS OF ' 64 IS JOYFUL, Seniors make last minute adjustments before the class day All was not seriousness during those last days at processional begins. P.H. Class Day provided an opportunity for light fun. Receiving his gift is Bruce Spencer. SENIORS ENJOY CLASS DAY AND THE SENIOR PARTY Dwight Hawthorne makes a little music of his own, at the Senior Party. Apparently the Blarneys have not arrived. Seniors quietly and eagerly watch as Tommy King prepares to make a running dive or splash into the club pool. 184 PLAYFUL AND SERIOUS Led by Junior Class Marshals Cameron Wood, Judy Spencer, and Beverly Bourne, the Seniors solemnly enter the gym for graduation. Karen Clay, Co-Salutatorian, gives the welcoming address. In her speech she stressed individuality and perseverance. W. D. Adams, one of 135 graduates, receives his diploma from Mr. R. V atson Durham, Principal. As the graduation exercises come to a close, the Senior Class of 1963-64 leave their world of security to face a changing world. 185 ADVERTISEMENTS As our community changes, so do we change, and as it grows we grow. Without the support of our community businesses and patrons the pro- duction of the “Voice” would be an impossibility. Many thanks are due to those who have made it possible for the students at Patrick Henry to view the changes in their school and community for the year ’63-’64. 187 1830 1964 RANDOLPH-MACON COLLEGE Ashland, Virginia An accredited liberal arts college tor men with a national reputation for the success of its graduates.
