Pulaski High School - Oriole Yearbook (Pulaski, VA)

Text from Pages 1 - 110 of the 1947 volume:

DEDICATION HEN September with its school bell rolled a- round, an outside observer might have seen throngs of excited students reluctantly re- turning to school. Looking closer, one saw, among those students, the faces of former members of P. H. S., our re- turned veterans. To these students, who gallantly sacrificed the rightful years of their high school life that peace might reign and that they might bring a richer hope for freedom and happiness to each of us, we wish to pay tribute. And so, we, the members of Pulaski High School, dedicate our 1947 Oriole to the Veterans of World War II, who through their presence in our school life have given us a better understanding of the meaning of world peace. PREFACE Oi f- . has been proud to wel- come back this year the returning veteran. These highly respected students proved their worth in places, both far and wide, all over our globe; this year they proved their merit in school life. Our artist has shown the veteran in the four phases of the annual. The changes in his uniform are representative of the stages through which he has passed in adapting himself to school life. The veteran is truly one of the integral parts of the machinery that makes up P. H. S. SCHOOL ' Z.7hsSc Our P r i n c i p a MR. WILLIAM R. GARLAND HIS year we welcome to Pulaski High School a new principal, Mr. William R. Garland, who came to us well recommended from Fishersville, Virginia. Mr. Garland is a native of Virginia, having been born in Buchanan County. During his life he has worked in various states and communities. He was awarded his B. A. Degree from Roanoke College. Work on his M. A. Degree was done at Madison College, University of Mexico, University of North Carolina, and Peabody College, the latter where he received his degree. He is well liked by all the students, and it is largely through his efforts that the school as a whole has become a school of which to be proud. The Faculty Miss Lynwood Kinder, B. S.

Having served in almost every conceivable part of the globe, these fine boys brought with them high ideals of sportsmanship and fair play.

Vice-President IMOGENE KEGLEY Secretary FRANKIE DEHAVEN Treasurer _ OUR years ago when the seniors of 47 were entering high school with anxious and excited faces, they had hopes that their class would some day lead the school more successfully than any other class before them. They didn ' t know then that they would have the honor of having among them a group of World War II veterans, who added much to the success of their senior year. Their sincerest thanks go to all their high school teachers; but especially to Mrs. Friel Quesenberry, Mrs. Luther Farris, and Mr. Foy Aust, for their excellent guidance during their senior year. May was the outstanding month of the senior year. Beginning with the senior play, the activities followed in quick succession — the prom, complete with receiving line; the banquet at the Woman ' s Club; the baccalaureate services at the Methodist Church. But climaxing them all came the realization of everyone ' s ambition — graduation. Although each senior leaves the corridors of P. H. S., the memories of pleasant hours well-spent within her walls will remain with them. ( 14 ) B. F.

Since then they have worked long and hard. Nevertheless, we still think of them as the jolly juniors. The jun iors have participated in much of the social life of P. H. S. and have been very active in the school clubs. The junior prom, which was held in January, was a success. They have been capably led by their homeroom teachers, Miss Ruth Simpson, Miss Mildred Witten, Mrs. Isabelle Jordan, and Mrs. Colleen Massey. As they come one step closer to graduation, these jolly juniors are looking forward with much anxiety to their senior year.

As sophomores, they became more used to the idea of being in high school and became good fellow classmates. All their joys and sorrows were shared with their home room teachers, who were Mr. Earl Crabtree, Mr. Walter Griggs, Miss Katherine Stokes, Miss Emma Gallimore, and Mrs. Nancy K. Dobyns. The sophomores worked exceptionally hard for their averages and will, un- doubtedly, be well rewarded for all their efforts in the future. ( 31 ) MRS.

They have been capably guided by the following teachers: Mrs. Thelma Sanders, Miss Elizabeth Painter, Miss Laura Dalton, Miss Clara Sue Bedwell, Mrs. Deile Wilker- son, and Miss Anne Bane. Though Mr. Jack Russell resigned soon after the beginning of the second semester, the freshmen feel that he contributed much to their welfare.

The most important aims of the council are to sponsor and carry out activities which will bring about better school spirit and improve the atmosphere of our student life, and to aid in the solving of problems that may arise in the school. The president of the council, Donald Scott, and the vice-president Betty Jean Hall, were elected by the student body. The secretary, Jeanne Kegley, and the treasurer, Iris Sutphin, were chosen by the council, which consists of all club presidents and homeroom representatives. Mrs. Colleen Massey was chosen sponsor. In addition to selling second-hand books at the beginning of the school year, the council sponsored the annual Farmer ' s Ball, which was a great success. The council also furnished the school with an amplifying system to be used for dances and various other purposes. The success of the Student Council was due directly to the splendid cooperation between the faculty and the students.

HE Future Homemakers ' Association is a new club in P. H. S., since this is its first year of existence there. It came into being through the co-operative efforts of youth who wish to develop social qualities and promote better home life for its members and their families by building a national organization of those enrolled in home-making. Their able sponsor, Miss Katherine Stokes, did much to aid the club with her valuable suggestions and her efforts to help the club get organized. Officers elected for the year were: Charlotte Frye, president; Freda Dalton, vice-president; Betty Jean Slate, secretary; Juanita Craig, treasurer; and Jean Jenkins, reporter. The club ' s motto is Toward New Horizons. Here ' s wishing them many more successful years to P. H. S.

In addition to the annual Christmas Formal, the club is also to be thanked for the Spring Carnival, held in the gymnasium each year in April. The officers for the year were Teenie Stevens, president; Patsy Smith, vice-president; Jean Owens, secretary; and Iris Sutphin, treasurer. Mary Clare Dunlap was chosen to be the club’s reporter. The club ' s able sponsors were Mrs. Luther Farris and Miss Mildred Witten. New members were taken into the club in September. Following the initiation, the members were treated to an over-night stay at the Home Economics Cottage. At the end of the year, the younger members gave a party in honor of their big sisters, members of the senior class. This is the fifth year the Prim Priscilla Club has been in existence. We are confident that the next five will be just as successful as these. ( 55 ) ■SI Chorus Club Center: First row: Second row: Third row: Fourth row: James Godfrey.

HIS is the first year that the Pulaski High School Chorus Club has been composed of both boys and girls. The addition of male voices has added much to the beauty of the chorus. The club, under the direction of Mr. James H. Godfrey, was headed by the following offi- cers: Edna Wilkerson, president; Randolph Palmer, vice-president; and Mary Davis, secretary- treasurer. The chorus gave a concert in the fall, which was composed chiefly of selections arranged by Fred Waring. A second concert, held in the spring, was an enjoyable presentation. During the year, the club sang for several meetings of the P. T. A., and for assemblies. The Chorus Club participated in the Music Festival held at Bristol, which is an annual affair. ( 58 ) P. H. S.
