TABLE OF CONTENTS Title Foreword Administration Faculty Classes Honors Scene in Area Organizations Athletics Advertising Not-so-vital Statistics We, the Petro Schola Staff and Seniors, are approaching the threshold of a new era. We publish this book for the many memories it will hold of our high school days. To the Stars Through Difficulties, our motto, is a challenge to every member of this senior class. How will we face this era of science? There will be many obstacles in our path into the future, how will we face them? As Oxenham wrote: To every man there openeth A Way, and Ways, and Way, The High Soul climbs the High Way, And the Low Soul gropes the Low, And in between, on the misty flats, The rest drift to and ho. Our goal will be reached only by overcoming difficulties along the road of life. And every man decideth The Way his soul shall go. We recognize that we have been guided in the past by counsels of love and faith. We now face decisions of our own. With this in mind, we proudly dedicate this Petro Schola to our mothers and fathers. THIS YEAR....WE HAD THE PROLONGED! VERY COLD WEATHER......THE GRANT HOSPITAL WAS BUILT.....WE HAD AN EN OF ALMOST 700 ....BECAME A CLASS A IN ATHLETICS CLASSIFICATION....RE SOI WORK HARDER, TO LEARN MORE.

Our answer to the Feaster Report-------a well rounded course of study or curriculum offering basic general education to those who will go on to college and some vocational preparation for those who must go directly into occupations. A sampling of classes in action............ Microscopes, eyeglasses, charts, and similar teaching devices make the study of micro-organisms more meaningful for our biology students. Additional stimulation is achieved through the medium of pop quizzes.

Ten days to try out a new Sunbeam Fry Pan found the homemaking classes making biscuits, French fries, upside down cake, and many other delicious foods. An economics class seems to be the logical place to estimate the cost of the Senior trip to New York in the spring. Mr. Sites warns the class of potential travelers to read the small print, es- pecially when they go to the movies, where the admission is 500 (for chil- dren under 12.)

Where proper typing tech- niques are employed. pro- gress is assured. The steady (if sometimes slow) advance of the red bars across our speed charts offers ample proof of this, says Mrs. Schell to her advanced typing class. The Grant and Hardy County Boards of Education in cooperation with the Trade and Indus- trial Department of the State Department of Education sponsored a course in “Residential Wiring for adults in the two counties. The class met twenty-five times for three hour sessions, beginning September 10, 1957, and ended with graduation exercises on January 23, 1958. The Home Ec- onomics Department of Petersburg High School, under the direction of Mrs. Bess Snyder Mohl, served the graduation dinner. A diploma and certificate of achievement were presented to each student who met the course requirements. This is the first class of its kind to be offered in the United States. The Adult Farmer Program is another phase of the educational offerings in the high school. L. G. Stark is the instructor of this program. A veteran training program called Institutional on the Farm training is taught by Virgil Dahmer. The course consists of night classes for the students and on the farm visits on con- sultation by the instructor. FRONT ROW, Left to Right: R. M.

Motional Mono Society, The National Honor Society is composed of members from the Junior and Senior classes throughout the nation. The national headquarters are in Washington, D. C. The members of the society are selected by the chapter from a list recommended by the faculty. Those considered must have a two-point average or better, and must show distinct traits of the organization's four ideals: Leadership, Scholarship, Service, and Character. The students that are finally selected are inducted before the entire student body at a special candle-light assembly. The local chapter members carry as a school service project the evaluation of student grades for the honor roll at the end of each six-weeks period. The system now in use is based on points. Any student in grades nine through twelve, having a total of points of 67 j to 74 were placed on the honorable mention list. All over 74 points were on the honor roll. In grades seven and eight, students had to have a total of 85-90 points to be on the honorable mention, and all above 90 made the honor roll. The Chapter’s officers for the year are: President: Bob Harman Vice-President: Beverly Riggleman Secretary-Treasurer: Ann Stonestreet Messenger: Charles Miller The faculty advisor is Mrs. Betty B. Thompson. Compliments of MR. AND MRS. HARRY NELSON Cabins, West Virginia duiil and SjchoIL The Quill and Scroll is an international honorary society for high school journalists.

She- Viftin Stand The “seasonii ” -- that is what the Viking Band has added to many well organized functions during the year, if we may be permitted to use a phrase uttered by an admiring patron. Around the school the band added more pep to the football and basketball games. Besides helping in activities of other groups, it has represented the high school in numerous acti- vities both local and in surrounding areas. The Vikings participated in the Tri-County Fair, the Forest Festival at Elkins, and a Labor Day Celebration. Later in the spring it attended the Tri-State Band Festival at Martinsburg. At Christmas time the music department put on a program in which both the band and chorus functioned. A spring concert concluded the band’s formal activities for the year. The officers this year are: President, Harry Nelson; Vice- President, Phillip Park; Secretary, Carolyn Collins; Treasurer, Ray Michael; and Managers, Pat Ours and Elsie Rumer. Those graduating this year are Mary Lynn Carney, Lough Cosner, Bob Harman, Phyllis Lahman, Mary Alice Mayle, Harry A. Nelson, Phil- lip Park, Carolyn Sabo, George Sites, Shelby Turner, Elizabeth Weimer, Colleen Wilson, Pat Ours, and Elsie Rumer. There are fifty three members of the band and Mr. George K.

Assisted by Mr. Rachey and the boys from the seventh and eighth grades music classes and members of the band, the chorus participated in a Christmas Assembly. To round out the year, they joined with the band in presenting the spring concert.

The club was honored this year by having a district officer, John Frye, as Lieutenant- Governor of the Fifth District. The Club as a community service, repaired broken toys and gave them to underprivileged children at Christmas. In order to raise money the club sponsored a record hop and a radio show. The officers for this year are: President: Bob Harman Vice-President: Sonny Taylor Secretary - Treasurer: Phillip Park Compliments of MR. and MRS. A. NEIL FRYE Cabins, West Virginia The F.F.A. is an intra-curricular activity at Petersburg High School having its origin and root in a definite part of the school curriculum -- Vocational Agriculture. It constitutes one of the most efficient agricultural teaching devices that has been discovered up to the present time. The F.F.A. is 100% American in its ideals and outlook and has no outside affiliations. Last summer the local F.F.A. sent fourteen boys to various camps within the state. At the State Convention, the chapter attained the “Superior Award,’’ ranking them among the top thirty chapters in the state. The high point of the year came in October when the chapter won the “Sweepstakes Award” at the State Vo-Ag Judging Contest while competing against thirty-seven schools and three hundred thirty- nine Vo-Ag boys. Petersburg won three contests-- Poultry. Plant Pathology, and Horticulture, out oi the seven contests, while placing fourth in Farm Crops, and sixth in both Dairy and Animal Husbandry.

Each year the FHA, the Future Homemakers of America, sponsors a recreation activity in which the students and faculty as a whole may participate. On November 26, 1957, such an event was the informal record hop featuring as disk jockey, Alice in Recordland from radio station WELD at Fisher. The students were unanimous in their approval and in answer to their request for a return engagement, the April Fool’s Dance came along. The number of members wanting to attend the Regional Conference at Shepherd College on April 12 far exceeded our allotment. Betty Oates and her first blouse. Jutwui Siemetnak iA o £ (Xm iica Although membership in FHA is entirely voluntary, our enrollment of 80 girls is the highest the Petersburg Chapter has ever had. The Future Homemakers of America is a youth organi- zation for students studying home economics. The foundation of its program is the desire for better home living. A style show featuring clothing made by students of Mrs. Mohl’s home economics classes, a reception for parents, assisting the civic clubs with the March of Dimes Drive, pre- paring and serving dinners for the 4-H poultry project mem- bers and their guests, and the adult class in household wiring, were among the important activities of the calendar for this year. Every other year the Petersburg Chap- ter is eligible for a candidate for a state office. Two years ago our chapter presi- dent, Ann Welker, was also State Vice- President of State and National Projects. This year it is possible that we may offer a candidate for State President which is one of the offices to be filled from the Eastern Region. It is too early at this writing to know. However, next year we shall be able to say something if our campaign is successful. The present officers are: President...................Jane Kimble Vice-President of State and National Projects . . . Eleanor Harper Vice-President of Public Relations.................. Melba Mallow Vice-President of Parliamentary Procedure .Norma Simpson Vice-President of Music and Recreation . .

This experience has influenced and encouraged the members to consider more seriously entering the teaching profession. A St. Patricks Day Party, which included inviting the Moorefield Chapter of FTA, was planned for March. The local chapter is a part of the nation-wide organization of The Future Teachers of A- merica, sponsored by the National Education Association, which includes students in grades 10-12 who are interested in the teaching profession.

Others were the development of an effective seating arrangement for assem- blies, clean-up campaigns and building and grounds inspections, noon-time recreation, and sponsoring such activities as dances, and assemblies. The Student Council is composed of representatives from each home room, e- lected by the membership. The council mem- bers should have a high scholastic record and be able to speak for their group at the bi-weekly council meetings. The first council of Petersburg High School was organized in 1939 and became a member of the West Virginia Association in 1950.

Keyser Home On Sept. 13 the Vikings came out on the long end of a 27-0 score against the Romney Deaf School who lost only one game last year which was to the Vik- ings 33-18. Petersburg scored three times in’ this contest. John Frye scored i twice on runs of 6 and 9 yards ; and added both extra points. End | came in the third period when Jim Vetter of Moorefleld ran off tackle for 26 yards and paydirt, the extra point try by Paugh went low. On Sept. 27 the Eagles of Greenbank High School defeated the Vikings by a 28 to 0 score. The Eagles scored two t.d.’s in the first period: first by John BoSey on a 56 yard romp, and the second score by Jackson on a 25 yard run. Greenbank scored in the third and fourth periods on passes from Sheets to Way- 1 bright arhich covered 9 and 12 yards, respectively. % The Viking lound that In this he GIVE YOUTH A CHANCE • • What does the term “juvenile delinquent” mean to you? To most people, it means teen-age A1 Ca- pones, murderers, thieves, and vandals. What does this mean to teen-agers? Do they approve these comments? How about giving teen-agers the floor. Because 10% of today’s youths are juvenile de- linquents, the remaining 90% are faced with prob- lems that seem to have no solutions. Take a look at the headlines of newspapers throughout the United States. Is it any wonder that people look at teenagers as the generation of criminals, while in the same pa- per on page six, column six, there is a mere para- graph or two on “Key Club International Promotes World Peace” or “Seven Young People Become Missionaries.” Another problem is the use of the eternal excuse, Jane Kimble Elected F. F. A. Sweetheart The F F. A. Chapter consist- ing of 81 Vo-Ag students selects every year a sweetheart from the Junior and Senior classes. In making their selection they con- sider personality, character, man- ners. appearance, and conduct at home and school. Since the election is by secret ballot, neither the boys nor Jane will be aware of the choice until the Viking Log appears today. Congratulations, Jane!
