Much to my astonishment there appeared before me a brazier. With a funny feeling | lit the brazier and in its ascending smoke | tried and tried and tried to think: What does the future hold for my classmates of June, 1951? Finally through the many scenes disclosed by a phosphor- escent cloud, | realized that | saw myself standing on the deck of a powerful ship, pulling away from the Poquoson pier, bound for Europe. The faces on the pier grew dim. It was hard to believe, | was bound for the old world alone. It isn’t my nature to be alone so as | walked along the deck | met an old friend, a dear one in fact, it was ZELLA ANNE SMITH. At the familiar sight | was overjoyed. After the usual hellos | asker her what she was doing on such a trip. She said that she and NANCY HARRIS after getting their degreesfrom college were exchange teachers bound for France. Of course my next question was concerning news from my dear ‘ole Alma Mater, P. H. S. As usual they both had plenty of news to tell. Before leaving Poquoson they had stopped by the school. With surprise they said, quite a few of the new teach- ers graduated with us. PEGGY ROLLINS and BETHANY FORREST are teaching history. HENEN BENTHALL is now head coach at P. H. S., coming back after making All-American at the University of North Carolina and TEENIE SOLES was assisting him (someone said Teenie had made All-American at William Mary). POLLY INSLEY is at the head of the commercial department, with HILDA THOMAS, BETTY BURCHER, and PAT UPTON under her. Natur- ally BARBARA MOORE was Mr. Thomas’ secretary. Next | asked them if they had heard of JOHN HUNT. Their answer was “‘yes’’, he was still at Poquosan, a promising young doctor and owner of the Hunt Hospital on the Langley Field site. The next few days | didn’t see Zell, but as | was unpacking some of my trunks, there was an old newspaper | hadn’t noticed before. Much to my surprise | found PHILIP EDWARDS was the editor, and before my eyes came ‘ Poquoson. Boy Receives Great Honor’. To my astonishment CHARLIE MOORE had received honors playing with the Brooklyn Dodgers. Surprises never cease. ! also saw by the paper that STORMY RICHARDSON had been arrested and held without bail for driving through Bull Island at 85 miles per hour, but the famous lawyer RAY PARCELL in his brilliant address to the jury proved he should be freed. After | had read the newspapers over and over again | de- cided to take a walk. As | came out of my stateroom | came face to face with two nurses. Their faces looked familiar and | recog- nized MIRIAM MOORE and PATTY MESSICK. They told me they were traveling with HAROLD LATHAM a rich millionaire who had been ill and now was traveling for his health. In about four weeks our ship took anchor at Lorraine, France. | looked for familiar faces on the pier, and as | walked a little beyond the crowd | saw a young woman dressed in an American khaki uniform, as | went to speak to her who should it be but NELL HOWARD. She took me to her office and here | met FRANCES HOGGE and BELLE CASTELLOW. These girls were acting as secretaries. Nell told me that ALMA JEAN MOORE was married to a soldier boy, and that JOYCE LANDRUM, being dis- appointed in love ran off to South America with KENNETH FOR- REST’S circus company. |! also learned RHODELIA WATKINS was the leading lady, FRANCES HUNT was doing ballet during intermission, but the greatest shock came when | found out JANICE CROCKETT was the leading bareback rider. They also said BILLY WAINWRIGHT took care of the elephants in the circus. Ill admit that what Nell told me next was unusually thrilling. HAROLD CARMINES and DAVID AMORY had signed a contract with the Columbia Record Co. The scenes in the bluish flames changed—l! was no longer in France but Arabia. | was glad, very glad, for | had always wanted to see a real sheik. One evening, as | was walking down the hotel steps | saw right before me a real sheik. But | was surely rophec GY disappointed when he looked at me and said, ‘“Why what are you doing here?’’ It was our class sheik, RANDY ROLLINS. He said he was waiting for OLEN BUNTING and ROBERT YINGLING to come out of the hotel. Imagine that, Randy, Robert and Olen here in Arabia as sheiks! Again the scenes in the fire changed. This time ! was in America. The city | saw was Washington. A friend and myself went to Keith’s Vaudeville. EDDIE MITCHELL ushered us to our seats and told me that ERNEST PAULS was manager. The first character that appeared before me was the people’s favorite. She was a little blonde, dressed in a fluffy pink net dress. Much to our surprise it was PETITE MOORE. SHIRLEY AMORY, MARY ROWE, and DORIS WHITT were also with the company. But owing to the fact that Doris burned her hand when JEAN E. MOORE'S tea-room, Rest-Awhile, burned down, she could not appear. That night after the performance a dance was given in their honor by MARTIN RIGGINS, a young millionaire, living in Wash- ington. The music for the occasion was furnished by JARMON MOORE'S Orchestra. The next day | took a bus around Washington. STANLY WILSON was driving the bus. He told me he had been a jitney driver at Yorktown, but here he was very satisfied with his work. He also said that DICKIE WARNICK had a big cab company at Jeffs with JOHN KAYE, DUBBIE WILSON, and OKEY WILSON as assistants. Next before my eyes came the vision of a construction company, SHIELDS WOOD. | discovered that NORMAN SHIELDS and FLOYD WOOD had formed a corporation; both had married and settled down. Seems as if SHERWOOD EMERSON and MELBOURNE HOGG were taking care of their business for them. A little way down the street was a cute millinery shop. | found out later it was owned by MAZIE and LOIS FIRMAN. Now back to the familiar scenes of Poquoson—everyone seemed excited. The weather appeared to be very cold for every- one was wrapped up. The crowd moved toward Poquoson Stadium. This was the day for Benthall’s championship football team of Poquoson High School to meet Mathew Whaley’s team for the title. It seemed as if everyone was there. The mayor, ERNEST EVANS, rode into the park on horseback. Following him | saw GRAYSON FOX, a prominent young man in York County since his second election to the House of Delegates. Before the game started ROBERT HALLMAN, a young avi- ator, flew over dropping small cards which said: To the voters of York County, vote for JACK ROYALL as Senator. As | sat there | saw many familiar sights. GLENDOLA BRYANT walked by with her twelve children. | saw RAY BURCHER and JAMES WEST who were instructors at the Apprentice School. Two seats down from me was a young mother who had seemed quite interested in the game, as she turned | realized without too much thought it was ROSALYN FOX. | later discovered she had a son on the team. Next | saw OLGA OLSON, she smiled and spoke but said she had to hurry because as usual she had to go to the Newport News High School football game. She was working now and ex- pected to be married in another year. For some reason | kept noticing another face | had seen millions of times but just could not place. He watched the game with anxiety. What was wrong with me, it was none other than ALEX TURLINGTON. Seems Alex had gone on up in football and was now playing professional ball with ‘“Choo Choo’ Justice. By this time the flame had gotten so low that | could not see a thing but the red and gray embers. Not even a faint shadow of a figure existed. | turned my head to see if there was anyone around but no—lI was still alone. | felt very much alone now, after | had spent about two hours with my classmates of June, 1951.

The Safety Patrol of Poquoson High School has completed another year of promoting safety around the campus and on the buses. | Under the guidance of Mr. Edwards, sponsor, Betty Ray Burcher as ‘captain and Frances Hogge as lieutenant, the Safety Patrol, composed of thirty-one members, has tried to achieve the goal of safety around the school. GI; History There always comes a time near graduation when one desires to look back and think over t hings which have helped and influ- enced him in his high school career. As it is in life, so it is dur- ing the five years that lead to graduation, there are always cer- tain things in which one will put his confidence and faith. To us who are graduating this June it is our class. We feel our past perfected . . . our future conditional. Important events seem to coincide. Long ago in the dim ages of the past, when education was struggling in her infancy, Aristotle called together his small band of scholars on the white vistas of old Athens. Just so many centuries afterwards our wonderful class of June ‘51 entered Poquoson High School. That class was composed of eighty-two shivering, shaking students wildly hunting for a place in which they might escape the amused glances and stinging ridicule of upper classmen. As uinfledged freshmen, newness was our school life. Much to our relief, however, we were called to the auditorium, and after a speech by Mr. Thomas in which he welcomed us to the school and gave us some excellent advice, we chose our courses and planned our five years’ study. There were three courses of- fered, the academic, the commercial, and the general. Our class was divided into two sections and then to work. Naturally our comfort was endangered greatly during that session by a haunting cry of “‘rats’’, but when the football season began our class turned out in full force, and we thus began to command more respect. This same year we elected Jack Royall as our president. The most wonderful event of this 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 honored us by saying that we were the best man- nered group that had ever held a dance at Poquoson High School. Then, the first May Day was held since 1941. Miriam Moore and Frances Hunt represented our class in the court. The following September we returned to school pleased with our position, for now we were able to escape the ‘‘gall’’ and helped with the hue and cry against our less fortunate companions. Dur- ing this term we were assigned to two different home rooms. Wallace Smith was elected to lead us as full fledged freshmen. This year was a successful one for all of us. We were represented in the May Court by Janice Crockett and Nancy Harris. This was a gala affair. We ended the year with our freshman dance which proved a definite credit to us as a class. Vacation being over we came back for another year as flighty sophomores. This year more than ever we realized our import- ance. We found ourselves even more interested in school affairs. Alex Turlington was elected to head our class for the coming year. Under his able leadership we again sponsored a dance which proved a big success. This year we elected Janice Crockett, Betty Burcher, and Glendola Watkins to our May Court. The next September we came to school fairly bristling with our own importance. Finally we had reached the height of juniors; indeed we were so important that the old school could not pos- sibly do without us. To start things with a bang we elected Philip Edwards as president, and began to plan the most interesting event of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom. Randy Rollins, Vice President; Philip Ed- wards, President; Alex Turlington, Secre- tary and Treasurer. Then the long awaited day came when we were called to the auditorium to order our class rings. Under the excellent guid- ance of Mrs. Norma Carmines we began work on the prom for the outgoing seniors. We carried out the theme of a garden scene, from the dyeing of cheese cloth to the hanging of paper roses. All in all we felt well repaid for our work by the evident success of the dence. With this confusion over, we received our rings, and felt as if we were as good as graduated. This year Zella Smith, Mary Katherine Rowe, and Janice Crockett were class rep- resentatives in the May Court. When June came we looked for- ward to our next year with great expectations. Finally we were seniors, real ones, supposed to be dignified and high hatted. But tell us, please, how we could preserve these rare characteristics,;when we were forced to flee from one class to our home room and back again to another class in five minutes. We came back to the old High School as seniors, with the thought of a long journey being nearly completed. Again Philip Edwards was elected to lead us as seniors. Along with this came our class motto, colors, invitations, announcements, and last, but not least, the business of the Annual. The seniors came in very well this year in athletics, having many boys on the football squad. We were the first class of P. H. S. to be represented on the All- State Football Team, two of our star players attaining this honor. We the class of ‘51 feel this is indeed a distinction. Now after five years, in our memories still linger thoughts of pleasure and work with our classmates and we are looking forward to our prom, entertainment, commencement and our bac- calaureate sermon. And with these comes the end of our high school days after which we shall face the world as alumni, leaving Poquoson with a deep feeling of regret, and hoping that as we face life’s problems we remember ‘there is no prize without a struggle.’’ DAVID AMORY General—David is one upon whom we all can depend.

The program of home economics in the school today offers opportunity for the fur- ther development of pupil initiative in planning and carrying out activities related to homemak- ing. The pupils enrolled in homemaking and those who have had three years of Home Ec. constitute its active membership. Membership is entirely voluntary. The emblem of the Future Homemakers of America is octagonal in shape and bears the name of the organization, FUTURE HOMEMAK- ERS of AMERICA, around the tops of the plane while around the lower side of it is the motto TOWARD NEW HORIZONS. In the center there is a house supported by two hands of its youth. Our purposes are to promote a growing ap- preciation of the joys and satisfactions of home- 51 making, to emphasize the importance of worthy home membership and to encourage democracy in home and community life; to work for good home and family life for all, and to promote international good will.

Under the able coaching of ’’Red’’ Simpson and Phil Edwards, Po- quoson High School’s football team finished the season with a record of four wins, four losses, and a tie after beginning the 1950 season hot on the trail of the Group Two championship. Although the team did not meet up with expectations when considering wins and losses, they realized that the valuable trait of cooperation is necessary always. The team had the use of new uniforms and a new stadium— built at the cost of $13,000. The crowds attending the football games this season were the biggest ever at a Poquoson sports event.

Henen Benthall streaked for the first Poquoson touchdown in the second period after Teenie Soles’ smashing drives through the Franklin line had set up the score. Soles raced 17 yards to put the ball on the Franklin 25-yard stripe and helped pace the attack the rest of the Way. In the same quarter, Billy Hogge rambled 13 yards on the first play from scrimmage for a touchdown. Center Alex Turlington and John Graham, along with the rest of the line, played a bang-up game defensively and jolted Franklin ball carriers on many occasions. POQUOSON—37 GREAT BRIDGE—O Scoring in every period, the Poquoson Bull Islanders romped to a smashing 37-0 triumph over a scrappy, but outclassed Great Bridge eleven. Coach ‘'Red’’ Simpson‘s squad tallied twice in the first period, once in the second, two more times in the third, and once again in the last quarter. Henen Benthall turned in the ‘‘hat trick,’’ scoring two touchdowns personally, and pitch- ing two others to Archie Healy and Buster Martin to account for 24 of the Poquoson points, To make it an even 25, he threw a pass to Billy Hogge for the only extra point of the game. Martin Riggins, wingback for Poquoson, chipped in with two six-pointers to round out the Poquoson scoring brigade. Poquoson scored the first time it got the ball. The Simpson-men took over on their own 47 and three plays later Benthall took off on the longest run of the game, a 33-yard jaunt for the first score. Guard Philip Ed wards and Center Alex Turlington, along with the entire Poquoson for- ward wall, played a bang-up game both offensively and defensively. POQUOSON—19 MATHEW WHALEY—0O Poquoson won its third game of the season by downing the Mathew Whaley Governor’s 19 to O before an estimated crowd of 3,000. The Simpson-men scored their first touchdown late in the first period on a quarterback sneak by George Dumas after Teenie Soles, Billy Hogge, and Henen Benthall had put the ball on the l-yard stripe. The second touchdown came late in the second quarter when Billy Hogge circled left end for 3 yards and a Poquoson score. Poquoson concluded its scoring in the third period when John Graham intercepted a Governor pass and ran it back 56 yards for the final touchdown. The try for the extra point was good on a Benthall to Hogge pass. The Governors came within the 5-yard stripe on not less than six occasions but the outstanding play of the Poquoson line proved to be the deciding factor. KEMPSVILLE—12 POQUOSON—7 Poquoson High suffered its first defeat of the 1950 season when it was upset by a weak but alert Kempsville team. Apparently on the way to triumph after leaving the field at halftime with a 7-6 lead, the Poquoson team was checked time and time again by a keyed-up Kempsville squad. Kempsville scored the decisive touchdown with only four minutes left to play in the game. A Poquoson march sputtered out late in the last period and Kempsville took over near mid-field. Stunningly enough, it was a fluke play that enabled Kempsville to win. A 29-yard pass was temporarily covered by two Poquoson defenders on the goal line but instead of batting the pass down, they tipped it right into waiting hands of a Kempsville player. Poquoson fought back quickly but time won out. Kempsville scored the first time they got their hands on the ball after they had recov- ered a Poquoson fumble. But Poquoson came back to register its score on a 32-yard sprint by Teenie Soles. POQUOSON-—18 DEEP CREEK—6 Poquoson registered its fourth conference victory of the season when they downed the Deep Creek Hornets, 18-6. : Benthall climaxed a 50-yard drive by Poquoson when he streaked 23 yards around his own right end on a fake pass play. Benthal’s pass to Billy Hogge in the try for the extra oint failed. Deep Creek deadlocked the score at 6-6 early in the second period when they scored on a play covering 11 yards. But the conversion attempt by the Hornets also failed. Poquoson came back at halftime and went ahead by 12 to 6 on a 37 yard pass from Benthall to Buster Martin. : The final Poquoson score came in the third period when they drove 47 yards. Teenie Soles crashed over from three yards out to make the final count 18 to 6. 65 Robert Owens TACKLE Charles McDaniel BACK Wilton Cox GUARD SMITHFIELD—32 it in the end zone. Poquoson lost its second conference game of the season when they bowed before a strong Smithfield team, 32 to 7. Poquoson looked as if it was on its way to another triumph when it left the field at intermission on the long end of a 7 to 6 score, but Smithfield came back strong in the second half to score four touchdowns. John Graham scored the lone Poquoson score late in the second quar- ter when he blocked a Smithfield punt on the 1l-yard line and recovered POQUOSON—7 Ray Parcell Senior Manager POQUOSON—6 Eddie Mitchell GUARD CHESTER—6 POQUOSON—7 Eddie Belford Junior Manager HIGHLAND SPRINGS—37 Poquoson ended its 1950 football season with a 37 to 7 loss to a keyed up Highland Springs eleven. Highland Springs dominated the entire first and second halves while they limited the Poquoson squad to only four first downs. The only Poquoson touchdown came in the last period when On November 10th Poquoson entertained a game Chester eleven and battled them to a 6 to 6 tie. Poquoson got the scoring underway in the first quarter when Benthall fired a thirty yard pass to Buster Martin for a touchdown, The all important try for the extra point failed. Chester got back into the ball game early in the third quarter when they drove 45 yards for their tieing touchdown. Their try for the extra point also failed. The fourth period of the contest passed rapidly with neither team threatening seriously and when the final gun sounded the score was 6 to 6. John Hunt substitute Rodney Gillikin heaved a pass to Buster Martin in. the end zone for the only Poquoson score in the contest. Oscar Hudson Freshman Manager Dennie Rowe Sophomore Manager VARINA—7 POQUOSON—6 On November 3, Poquoson traveled to Varina only to lose a heartbreaking game 7 tp 6. The Islanders scored early in the second period when Benthall returned a Varina punt 85 yards for a touchdown, but it was called back because of a clipping penalty which, in the end, proved to be costly. Early in the third period Varina connected with a long pass that put the ball on the Poquoson 5-yard line and on the next play they scored. The extra point that also proved to be fatal was good and Varina led 7 to 0. Poquoson came back quickly in the same quarter to score its initial touchdown on a five yard smash by ‘’Teenie’’ Soles. The try for the extra point was not good. The first quarter went by quickly with Poquoson driving down to Varina’s 3-yard line on two occasions only to give the ball up in downs and penalties. 66 Jack Marshall Martin Riggins R obert Hallman ‘ Betty Martin, Annette Moore, Olga Olsen, Rosedale Forrest, Dot Insley, Madeline Hopkins, Delores Toxie, Glendola Bry- ant, Joyce Freeman.

Most of the time the team played outstanding ball but at times they were lacking the winning punch. Any losses, however, were not due to laxness on the part of the players or insufficient coaching. The boys who stayed throughout the season really hustled for Coach Simpson. The most exciting game of the season was the opener with Newport News, when Henen Benthall hit a homerun and scored a total of three runs to lead Poquoson to victory. y - a This page sponsored by HUNT MOTOR CAR CO. f CHEVROLETS 9 i 72 ; i SA tiie 2 FIRST ROW: David Amory, Phylip Edwards, Boyd Soles, Henen Benthall.
