RAY BAKER Sponsor Aa tit We hope that by basing this, the fourteenth volume of the York Chronicle, on music, we will endeavor to have a better understanding of and more appreciation for music. Wealso hope that by this act the band will be inspired to ever greater achievement and will feel that we, the class of 1948, are whole-heartedly behind them in all they endeavor to do for Poquoson High. TWO DEDICATION Weutbeclassior | 940 vdediecieithisithe XIV volume of the York Chronicle to the members of the York Rangers in appreciation of their sup- port in organizing the band in Poquoson High school. THREE OUR BAND In the summer of 1947 most of our band members began their prep- aration for the school year by studying and learning to play their instru- ments. A few days after school started they played together for the first time, and for the first time each enjoyed the thrill of being a part of a real band. After they learned to play a few tunes they wanted to play for someone, but their director said ‘’no.’’ He wanted to give the York Rangers the benefit of their first public performance in honor of the work they did in furnishing the band with equipment. They set out to build a good concert ‘for the York Rangers and on March 12, 1948 it was played. From then on everyone in the county came to know the kind of work they were doing. The concert turned out very successfully and future playing dates very soon began to show up. The personnel of the band includes both boys and girls and they are having a great time learning and playing new music. Many have sacrificed considerably to take part; some worked to buy their instruments; some had them bought for them by others in their family; some went to their savings; but all feel it was well worth their effort. The band promises to increase in size by next year but will lose none yet because of graduation. The instrumentation so far consists of fourteen Clarinets, three Trumpets, three Cornets, three Alto Horns, two Saxophones, three Drums, three Trombones, two Baritone Horns, one Bell Lyre (Glochen- spiel), two BB-flat Sousaphones. More players can be used on practically all sections, and the director is on the lookout for more talent. For marching preparations the first thing needed is a drum major, to lead the band on the field. The band expects to play for football games next fall and so add more spirit to the games.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT The Student Government has been busy around school doing some jobs, such as, the drive for the Red Cross and Infantile Paralysis. The chapel pro- grams have been under the direction of the Council and each has been very good. Dolly Pauls, the president, has been helping Mr. Thomas with the finances of the school, also during football season the gate men were ap- pointed by the representative in charge of the Athletic Department. With the experience gained this year, we hope to make the Student Government more successful another year. NINE First row, left to right: Jean Forrest, Ned Mills.

SAFETY PATRO@E This year the Safety Patrol has as its aim the making of our school sys- tem a safer and better place in which to carry on our education. In striving to fulfill this aim we have many unpleasant duties to perform, but with the realization that the student body is behind us we work hard. With Robert Mills as Captain and Jean Forrest as Lieutenant, the Safety Patrol, composed of thirty-one members, tried to achieve the goal of safety on the school campus and the buses. Mr. Phillip Edwards is our sponsor and helper. TEN i} ¥, GLASS. OFBI@EES EUGENE BUNTING HENRY MILTON FORREST LESLIE JOSEPH SMITH JEAN CARROL FORREST President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer OQUR CLASS Goodbye, Poquoson High, we're leaving you, In time of strife and fear; We'll never forget the friends we’ve made, And memories held so dear. Four years ago a wondrous class, Marched into Poquoson High; A class whose equal never was seen, At least, beneath the sky. We will remember dear old P.H.S. Always—whether far or near, And the good times we've had with you; This thought will bring an extra tear. There are schools of art and science, too; There’s a school for me and one for you. Will you help us choose the best for which we yearn? For we are leaving you, and where shall we turn? To you, dear faculty, (we’ve provoked you many a time,) We love you in spite of the pranks we play and so to you this rhyme, We wish to you all that ‘fortune’ may hold of health, wealth, and love, As now we leave you, will this our gratitude prove? Here’s to the ‘48 Seniors, As they into school history pass, And here’s to their many followers, May they have a wonderful class. Farewell Poquoson, we’re on our way To start our life anew, To climb the road that carries us To find our life’s work to do. —By Joan Plentovich Jean Forrest TWELVE iiie@ Peto or ar Obeuliih gol NiOh: CLASS We, the Senior Class of 1948, after four years of toil have at last achieved our victory. Back in September, 1944, we as a class commenced to exist with a roll call of 67. We felt that we had a very steep ladder to climb before we reached the top. The first thing we had to do was to memorize the ‘Star Spangled Banner.’’ The Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Classes sometimes tried to discourage us because we were Freshmen; but, we pressed forward with a firm determination, and when June came we were elated over the fact that we would be Sophomores when we returned to school. The following September, 1945, we returned, and were glad to be back, and very proud of the fact that we were no longer “‘lowly rats’’ but Sopho- mores. In our new dignity—most of us put away childish things, and tried to master our new subjects because we were so anxious to become Juniors. This year we had a few more privileges such as writing ‘’Rat’’ on the Fresh- men, being third to leave the auditorium and taking those WELL LOVED mid-term examinations. Jackie Smoot was elected our class president. Sixty-seven Juniors took their respective desks in Mrs. Lankford’s and Mrs. Smith’s homerooms on September 5, 1946. We had looked forward to be- coming Juniors because of the events which usually took place during the year. The Juniors and Seniors had been telling us of the good times they had at the Junior-Senior parties, and of the entertainment given for these classes. Now we were nearing what we had worked so diligently to become— a Senior at Poquoson High School. The most memorable day to all of us was September 6, 1947, now at last we were enrolled as Seniors. Added responsibilities increased our dignity. Sixty-seven of us grasped the opportunity to win a diploma. We are glad to receive our diplomas. The time has come—and we must part. We leave sorrowful, in the thought that in so short a time all these class- mates, whom we've grown to know and love, will be going their various ways, and the class of 1948 will be a thing of the past. We wish we could live these precious four years over—we shall in memory, for the best years of our lives were spent here. For most of us our reading, writing, and arithmetic days are over, but over the horizon we view the dawn of a new tomorrow.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY September 6, 1945, saw a group of very scared Freshmen or eighth graders enter the doors of P.H.S. We were the first class to enter under the five-year training plan. In the spring we had a wiener roast at Grand View, which was a lot of fun even if we did forget the wieners. In the fall of 1946 we entered our Scphomore year here in P.HS. In the spring of ‘47 we had a very successful dance. Then, the first May Day was held since 1941. Catherine Gillikin and Nancy deNeufville represented our Sophomore Class in the court. We entered our Junior year in the fall of 1947 with a bang. The school band was organized and Hartness Lawson, a junior, was selected as student conductor. Early in the year we ordered our class rings. December 19 found us attending the Christmas Dance in the school gymnasium. Evangeline Sparrer, Jeannine Ward, and Ailsa Braid were elected to represent us in the May Court. Then came the big event, the Junior-Senior Prom on Apri! 23 in the school gymnasium. Everything went over in a big way. This ended our three very successful years at Poquoson High School, and we are looking forward to two more bright and happy ones.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY We can never forget our first day of high school, what a day! It was all so different from grammar school. However, to our surprise, the 82 fresh- men who entered the doors of P.H.S. soon adjusted themselves to high school life. We were assigned to Mrs. Moore’s, Mrs. Carmines’ and Mr. Cox’s home- rooms. We elected as our class officers Jack Royall, president; Frances Hunt, vice-president; John Hunt, secretary-treasurer; and Peggy Rollins, student council representative. Olga Olson, a freshman, was elected Miss P.H.S., in a contest sponsored by the Junior Woman's Club of Poquoson. The main and wonderful event of the year was our Freshman Formal Dance, which took place April 23, 1947. It proved very successful even if we did have the misfortune of misplacing the nuts and mints. Mr. Thomas gave us a compliment by saying that we were the most well mannered group that had ever held a dance at Poquoson High. Frances Hunt and Miriam Moore, represented the Freshman Class in the May Court. The first May Day since the war years. Then came the great day September 9, 1947, we were no longer rats but really upper classmen. We were assigned to Mr. Carmines’, Miss Bridgewater’s, and Mr. Bak- er’s homerooms. We elected our class officers, and then our thoughts turned toward our Sophomore dance, which will be held sometime in the near future. We chose Nancy Harris and Janice Crockett to represent the Sopho- more Class in the May Court. These two years of high school have proven very successful and we are looking forward with pleasure to three more years of high school life.

THE FRESHMAN CLASS The Freshman Class of 1947-48 has displayed an admirable school spirit since many members have participated whole-heartedly in most school activities. A large number have been active in the band, glee club, Future Farmers of America club, and Home Economics club. This class did itself credit when it entertained the student body with an assembly program. It is also proud of the participation of its members in the athletic program of the school, with representatives already starting training in football, basketball, and baseball, and looks forward to the years when these will be on the varsity teams.

Gloria Shields Dolores Davis Joseph Smith THIRTY-EIGHT CLASS PROPHECY “Well, if it isn’t old Jimmy Grubb,’ said | while waiting for a Newport News bound airliner in the waiting room at the airport in Washington. ‘’How you doin’, fella? | haven’t seen you since way back in ‘48 after we graduated from Poquoson tlle ‘It's good to see you again, Babe,’’ replies Jimmy, heartily shaking hands. ‘’l’ve been taking it easy since | made a fortune from the gold rush of ‘49. Kinda thought I’d look up some of my old buddies for a while and then head North again to pull a few more million dollars out of the earth.”’ “Good, the Atomic Nuts and Bolts Company has given me until day after tomorrow morning to do as | please. Let’s go out and get on the plane now, and we can talk in comfort.” As we settled ourselves in our assigned seats, which fortunately were next to each other, the hostess came down the aisle to ask us to fasten our safety belts. When she recognized us, she yelled ‘Jimmy! John! What-l-Well of all places to meet you two. There are two more people on this plane who'd like to talk to you, too. The pilot and co-pilot. I’ll send them back as soon as we take off. Oh, wait till they hear who’s aboard on this flight.’ With this she scampered off, leaving us to collect our wits. After the plane had taken off and we could relax, we both began to reminisce about amusing incidents in our school life. | started the conversa- tion by asking, ‘Say Jimmy, do you know what became of the editor of the ‘School Scoop,’’ Joe Smith?”’ ‘’Sure,’’ came the reply. ‘‘He’s feature editor for the Daily Press. | have him send me each issue. Costs me twice as much as regularly, but it’s worth it. There was a good article in last Tuesday’s edition about what became of some of the graduates of the Langley Field NACA Appren- tice School. You know Henry Milton Forrest, Leo Dunn and Gene Evans. Says they all became suc- cessful businessmen.” “Leo Dunn, Leo Dunn,”’ came a pondering voice from the seat in front of us. As its owner turned around to see who was speaking, | saw him first and fairly shouted. ‘’Bill, Bill Insley, you old son- of-a-gun. What're you doing here, and where did you get that Navy Officer’s uniform?’’ ‘’To make a long story sort, | enlisted in the Navy in 1950 and have since worked my way up to my present position as lieutenant aboard a cruiser now anchored in Hampton Roads,’’ quoted the ever- correct Bill. Just then the pilot of our airliner came back to greet us and who should he turn out to be but Frank Burke. ‘‘H-h i Babe, Jimmy,’ says he. “‘l want you to come up and see my co-pilot.” When we had all crowded into the tiny cabin, we discovered that our co-pilot was none other than Martin Irons. He was so busy flying the plane he didn’t have time to say much more than “‘hello.’” When Frank told us we were about to land, we went back to our seats and strapped our- selves in. Waving goodbye to Bill and our old friends on the plane, we headed toward what appeared to be administration building of this half-built airport, only to find out that it was a half-finished han- gar. | tried to find a telephone to call a taxi, but, finding none, asked an electrician where | could find a phone. When he turned around he showed himself to be Coleman Moore. ‘Hi, fellows,’’ he said, ‘I’m rather busy or I’d show you myself, but there’s one through that door over there. Bob- by Thompson has just finished installing it. See you later.” We told him we would. Then we went and sur- prised Bobby, who was taking a breathing spell from his job as telephone repairman. “‘I| guess you know who's building this place for the city,’’ he asked. When both of us answered in the nega- tive, he said ‘’Gordon Lemay’s doing it. He’s not here at the moment, but I’m sure he’d love to see you again if he were. The phone's right there if you want to use it.” We thanked him and then | called a taxi dis- patcher to send us a taxi to ride into town in. Looking at the phone book, | asked the female dispatcher if ‘’Green’s taxi’’ was owned by Billy Green, who graduated from Poquoson High School in 1948. The dispatcher affirmed our question and asked us our names. When we told her she said she was Delores Wilson, and that Jack Mitchell also owned a taxi firm and that Bar- bara Wilson and Elizabeth Riley were working for him. She told us Billy himself was on his way to pick us up, and we hung up, after telling her how happy we were to hear her voice again. Billy drove us into town, and after letting Jimmy off at the bank, took me to a U-Drive-It garage. After saying goodbye to Billy, | went in and hired a new Ford for two days. When | saw a familiar head stick out from under a truck being repaired, | recognized Frank Insley. We exchanged notes about mutual friends for a while, and then | drove off to meet Jimmy, for we were going to drive up to Poquoson that afternoon to hunt up old friends. On the way there | told Jimmy about meeting Frank, and in return he told me that he had met Howard Burcher, a clerk in the bank. Howard had told him that Joe Rowe was now working for Marian Sheild in her law firm, but had previously worked in the same bank as Howard. Arriving at Poquoson Hi, we went to see Mr. Thomas and found that his secretary was now Lillie Marie Freeman. She told us that others of our graduat- ing class were here at P.H.S. too. ‘For instance,’’ she said, ‘J. T. Watson and Betty Jane Elkins are the Phy. Ed. instructors, Bettie Lee Ford is teaching History, Annie Hogge is the music teacher, and Jean Forrest is our librarian.’ We just had to see for ourselves, and, after talking to the first four, we walked into the library to see Jean. | heard Jimmy gasp and saw his eyes almost pop out. ‘John Sundy,’’ he fairly yelled, “Is that your brother Carl | see or are my eyes playing tricks on me?” ‘’No, your eyes are okay,’ says |. ‘Carl just hasn’t graduated yet.’’ ‘But this is 1958, ’ said Jimmy. ‘‘He must have passed his subjects by now.” “‘How could he?”’ | replied. “Mrs. Lankford is still teaching history here.’’ After school we went to the homes of our parents at the Naval Mine Depot to spend the THIRTY-NINE Class Prophecy (Continued) night. Jimmy came over to our house after sup- per to talk. Carl told us that Ned Mills, Eddie Elliott, Eddie Rookstool, and Billy Sulzberger had all graduated from V. M. I. and that Ned had stayed on as Phy. Ed. instructor there. He also said that Dolly Pauls, Henry B. Hunt, Ear! Bre- voort, and Allison Davis had graduated from Wil- liam and Mary College years ago. On the way to Poquoson the next day, Jimmy told me that he had met Helen Anderson after he left me last night, and that she had told him that she, Suzanne deNeufville, and Edna Hornsby were all nurses in the Medical College of Vir- ginia hospital and that Janet Sue Rollins, Millie Wainwright, Genevieve Page, and Faye Hardin were registered private nurses. At school once more we couldn't find out much more about our old classmates, except that Henry Thomas Bunting and Richard Topping occasionally helped Muriel Firth on his fishing boat. We also learned that Wendell Wornom, as employment officer at Langley Field, is still trying to hire loaf- ers Charles Shields and Kenneth Harlan. Jean Forrest, still the same old gossiper, told us that Macy Ferguson, Anne Hudgins, Joan Plentovich, and Joan Bartley are married and have had at least one baby each. She also told us that Gloria Shields had finally hooked ‘’Boots’’ Bunting, who is working in the Newport News shipyard along with Billie Forrest and Moody Top- ping. BY-GONE We have traveled along life’s busy way, With a song in our hearts that has come to say, That they are just by-gone days of yesterday. To us each task has seemed easy to do, and our Courage and smile have helped us through. And now life is glad, our skies are blue, Because we have found our classmates true. With classmates like ours, there seems to be, Still sunshine in the world for you and for me. Many of us never stop to think That work is a wondrous magic link, With God, taking at times the place of prayer, When words have failed us, ‘neath the load of care. Work that knows no nation, race or creed, But gives to each according to his need. There stands our dear old high school, Which we love so well, Where students have come, And continue to come to dwell. Thus star by star declines, till all have passed away, We found out by asking others around school that Carolyn Fox, Betty Lou Moore, and Melvin Graham are working in the dime stores in New- port News. Jessie Forrest is working in Hampton, we also learned. After school let out we drove to Newport News and spent the remainder of the afternoon looking up some of these old acquaintances of ours. We returned the car and secured a hotel room, where we spent the night. Early the next morning we called Jack Mitchell and asked him to drive us to the airport. On the way to the airport Jack told us that Anna Jane Hansford and Dolores Davis were both working as typists in Newport News office buildings, We were waiting for the flight to be announced, we tearfully said good- bye. “So long,’ | said. ‘‘Don’t ever forget your old classmates. It’s a rare privilege to be able to visit with your whole graduating class in two days, and we enjoyed every moment of it. My plane’s waitin’, and we've got to run, but say goodbye to all of them for me, and tell them that they have shown the greatest school spirit of any people we had the privilege to know.” Once aboard the airliner, | settled back and once more began to reminisce of my wonderful school days. Nothing can detract from the won- derful feeling one gets when he meets old class- mates, and let every one of you treasure such a meeting always. DAYS As morning high and higher shines, to a pure and perfect day. We boys and girls of today, salute you— You boys and girls of an earlier day, Because you have pointed out and shown us, Just the right way. Do a simple deed of kindness, To any friend that you may see, It may reach like widening ripples Down a long eternity. P. H. S. for you we will always stand For the knowledge and principles which you have planned, Forever and forever to thee we will be true, And we thank our Teachers and Principal For their hand too. —By Marian Sheild Thirty-Fourth Annual Commencement BOQUOSON HIGH SCHOOL WEDNESDAY, JUNE 9, 1948 8:00 P.

May Day this year, again under the direction of Mrs. Norma B. Carmines, was a great success. Since this May Day was the second since the war, we were very proud of its success. The May Court which consisted of girls from each class in high school was very colorful. Effectiveness resulted from the many different style dresses, and pastel shades. Unlike other May Day’s which have been presented, boys took part in the May Pole dance and it was very graceful and pretty. Each grade from the grammar school participated in the celebration. May Day is a day which everyone enjoys and | am sure everyone is looking forward to next year’s May Day.

ANNUAL STAFF Under the sponsorship of Mr. |. Ray Baker the annual was made pos- sible by the advertisements of our backers. The annual staff has tried to publish an annual the entire school will be proud of. There have been many times when we thought the annual would never be finished, and we have had lots of fun going advertising and missing classes when the photographer came. We hope this annual will live in the memory of the students and that all the people who have made it possible will think back after many years have gone by and remember all the good times that have been spent work- ing on it.

This experiment in democracy has had its draw-backs, but it has seemed worthwhile as a practical project for this group of would-be journalists. Mrs. Margaret Robinson has taught the Journalism Class and acted as faculty adviser for the ‘Scoop’ Staff. FORT Y-SIX Hi a f i alae cies ame mt !

VARSITY CLUB The Varsity Club has completed another successful year. The officers have all served well. The club itself has sponsored one dance during football season, for the opposing team Varina. The team unfortunately was unable to attend. The gym was gayly decorated, and everyone attending seemed to have a good time. During the year Varsity members have sponsored other activities, such as the sale of the Poquoson red and white banners. These sales have been excellent and have more than covered the club’s expense for them. FORTY-SEVEN Front row, left to right: Pellham Phillins, Glenn Wilson, Jr.. Raymond Snencer Forrest.

BAND Our band is new this year and judging from their first concert on March 12, it is a very successful band. Their first concert was dedicated to the York Rangers in honor of their efforts in getting the band started. Next year they are expecting to play for the football games. They deserve every bit of credit for their work they can get and also encouragement to go on to better things. We'll see (and hear) a lot of them from now on.

The club has striven to serve others in some outstanding way. This we have accomplished by taking part in the making of costumes for various school programs. We have also helped with the preparing and serving of various dinners given at the school. We are planning to take part in redeco- rating the teachers’ rest room and give some entertainment for the school. It is our hope that this organization will offer opportunities for the further development of pupil initiative in planning and carrying out activi- ties related to homemaking.

During the summer Mr. Edwards worked hard to get tools and equipment for our shop, so this year we started out with a fine assort- ment of tools. The Poquoson High School shop now has as many tools as any other shop on the Peninsula as well as electric and acetyline welding.

The first game, with Mathews, was a victory for P. H. S., the score being 47-0; the last game, with Mathew Whaley, reversed this score exactly. In between these two games the Poquoson boys fought very hard. The biggest upset of the year was the game with South Norfolk at South Norfolk, the score being 7-13 in their favor. Some of our players quit, but this did not stop the eleven. Our tail-backs, Jack Mitchell, Henry Milton Forrest, and Jimmy Grubb made the longest runs. Carl Sundy, as full-back, did great plunging the line until he broke his wrist. He was replaced by Dolly Pauls, the captain, who had been play- ing right tackle. The season began under Mr Edwards’ direction, and later Coach Ken- net Sands arrived and took over. In spite of some difficulties, it was a good season. FIFTY-NINE First row, left to right: Ned Mills, Edward Rookstool, Edward Elliott, Arlen Carter, John Sundy, J. T. Watson, Carl Sundy. Second row, left to right: Henry Forrest, Kenneth Harlan, Leo Dunn, Coach Ken Sands, Dolly Pauls, Robert Yingling, Richard Topping, Manager. BONGS) EVANS le IHeyACEIL The Poquoson basketball team has done quite well this year even though they did lose a majority of the games. In victory or defeat they always came through with a smile. The captain this year was elected before each game. The squad was limited to 12 players, but each one played his heart out in practice and in games. John Sundy led individual scoring with a total of 178 points for con- ference and non-conference games. He also led in foul shooting, making 44 for 68, for a percentage of 65 during the season. We hope the teams to come will have the ability and determination to win and lose with a smile.

Every girl played her best and good sportsmanship was shown by each one. This was the first year for most of the girls on the team. Next year we are looking forward to winning more games and having even better sportsman- ship.

BASEBALL The season started well this year with a turn out of over 40 boys. Al- though the prospects for our team this year looked good, we missed our ace pitcher of last year, Chick Fox; however, the team carried on with a good Spirit. Through the help of some of the peninsula’s interested citizens the team was fitted out with new uniforms which were issued to the players for the first game on April 2. We are grateful to Coach Sands and Mr. R. R. Rollins for their help to and loyal support of the team. SIXTY-TWO First row, left to right: Anne Forrest, Gloria Graham, Captain; Nan Martin. Second row, left to right: Joan Plentovich, co-Captain Bettie Ford, Faye Hardin, Manager; Joan Bartley, Janet Rollins. CHEERLEADERS The Cheerleaders of 1948 have done a very good job cheering at all the games this year. The first games they cheered for were football games. At that time there were 12 cheerleaders, four of them were boys. The girls wore white pleated skirts, white sweaters, with a megaphone and the letter ’’P’’ on the front, white sox and brown and white saddle oxfords. The boys Wore white pants and maroon sweaters. During basketball season four boys and one girl dropped from the squad; the other girls then carried on. The cheerleaders really did a good job and worked hard. Good luck girls, the school should be proud of you.
