It commemorates the founding of the first permanent English settlement in America three hundred and fifty years ago. The early settlers of this colony set out in their ships, the “Godspeed”, the “Discovery”, and the “Sarah Constant”, to a new life in a new world. We, the seniors, also began a new life when we entered high school three years ago. This new life was a challenge to each and every one of us, both scholastically and socially. We adapted ourselves to a life of more freedom and more responsibility. We, like those early settlers, have endured many hardships from the first. Although we have had disappointments and trials, we have at last completed our voyage. four “Miirlj four Wagnn 3n A § tar” “Ait aappra prr aaprra” T 11 . he women of Jamestown were a great inspiration to their men and to their families. They played a great role in the start of the new world because they helped to preserve high ideas for the men and to encourage them. Miss Laura A. Meredith is also a help and an inspiration to her students and her friends. As a Latin teacher, she has helped to create a better understanding of this difficult language. She always tries to bring out the best qualities in a student and to look to the best side of her students. She helps to create high ideals and high standards in a person. Miss Meredith is an outstanding teacher at Petersburg High School and commands the admiration of all. Laura A.

Through their guidance and understand- ing the settlers w ere able to endure their hardships and continue onward in their new world. When our journey seemed difficult and endless, we were given courage and faith by our advisory council, the faculty of Peters- burg High School. They have gone far beyond their goal of teaching by advising and helping us in our many school activities. Words alone cannot express our devotion and gratitude for the love and kindness shown to us by our advisory council. eight Jfarultji ADMINISTRATION Russell B.

They urged every person to do his share in making the settlement a success. The Lords represent us, the Senior Class of 1957. W e are looked upon as the leaders of our school and have done much in setting an example for those who follow us. We have shown them how to participate in activities and how to keep the spirit of Petersburg High School alive. May the Class of 1957 be remembered, and may its standard of leadership be upheld by the senior classes of the future. twelve thirteen Eloise Allen General A cute redhead who loves being a majorette . . . crazy over dancing and studying psychology . . . hopes to be a model . . . favorite ex- pression: “Charge”.

They must symbolize high ideals that were fought for and won by our colonial forefathers; they must stand for the principles that the people of today still seek.

It is not the beauty of the portrait that people will remember, but the person or thing for which it stands. A portrait remains dearest to the family to which it belongs, no matter what its act ual features are. So it is with these Colonial Portraits.

These activities provided pleasure and enjoyment to the colonists. They also provided re- lief from the daily labor of establishing a colony. We have enjoyed a broad program of extra-curricular activities at Petersburg High School. Each student has had an opportunity to take part in one or more of these activities. By participation in various clubs one acquires a sense of responsibility in making his club a success, as did those early settlers in making their colony a success. Our activities play a large part in our school life. Without them our school would lack spirit and unity. sixty-tico The Missile Staff Art, Circulation, Typists, and Business First Row : Miss Mary Bailey, Floyd Sheffield, Ruth Huttemeyer, Anne Wright, Polly Powell, Bess Dupuy, Peggy Rives, Martha Bryant, Kenneth Temple.

Baseball, football, and basketball did not come into existence until the late nineteenth century, and the most important of the sports was hunting. In addition to hunting, the colonists could fish, play cards, go horseback riding and play duckpins, which has evolved to our pres- ent day bowling. The colonists at Jamestown did not have as much time for the sports they brought over from the old world as we spend in sports now, and they did not have any really popular sports as our “big three” in present days. Whether in old times or new 7 , the spirit behind the sports has continued the same, to win but yet to win fairly. From the col- onists to the present day America, the people of the United States have been noted for their sense of fair play in sports. eighty-two o ■tf.

Although now, you are graduates, you can do a great service for the rest of us, if you never cease to be students — looking for opportunities and ways to cherish the American system of free enterprise and to im- prove the American way of life. You can be thankful for free schools in a country where you are free to worship and work and think and talk as you please. This is your heritage from the people who built America. THE FUTURE is pretty largely in your hands — you must be vigilant and active to combat the evils of socialism, government domination of private industry, and all the “isms” that destroy democracy. We de- pend upon you to do a good job. GOOD LUCK! The Petersburg and Hopewell Gas Company Francis K. Godwin, President GOOD GAS SERVICE MAKES WARM FRIENDS one hundred twenty-one 9U « ; r L n i rAi one hundred twenty-three Hraw JC put Morlti %- ■ ,s our high school life comes to a close, each of us will go our separate ways. We will enter into a brave new world as the Jamestown settlers did many years ago. May they serve as an ideal in our life ahead. This thought is well expressed by President Dwight David Eisenhower in a letter addressed to the chairman of the James- town Festival Celebration. “It is important for us to call to memory the great achieve- ments of our forefathers in hewing out of the wilderness a new nation. The founding of the first permanent English settlement in 1607 at Jamestown, Virginia; the establishment there of the first representative form of government in the New World; the flow- ering of Colonial culture at Williamsburg and the winning of American independence at Yorktown are important milestones in our nation’s history. The commemoration of these events will increase the understanding and appreciation of our rich heritage.” one hundred twenty-four OQ19 90QQ 17 sJU jaS iss 07 v 1 El-l : 6roup
