New gymnasium The school newspaper, “Pine Whispers”, was begun in 1925. Elizabeth Wilkinson was the first editor-in-chief. In 1925, Reynolds won five awards in the state-wide musical contest. Reynolds had an overall football record of 8-1 in 1926. The girls’ hockey team won the state championship the same year. In 1926 RJR’s drama team accepted an invitation to give a performance in New York City. The Grand Trophy of the High School Music Contest in North Carolina became a “personal possession” when Reynolds won the trophy for the fourth year in a row in 1927. Reynolds won the State Baseball Championship in 1927. Both the Reynolds’ boxing and wrestling teams won the state championship in 1928. During these early years Reynolds had its own print shop. At one time, the shop printed all educational materials for the school system. The shop also printed the school annual and newspaper. Thus the print shop, at one time, gained the reputation of being one of the best high school print shops in the state.

Until World War II, all students were required to attend a morning chapel twice a week. Wednesday morning chapels were set aside for devotional programs, while Friday morning chapels were set aside for educational purposes and pep rallies. All football games were played on Hanes Field on Saturday afternoons. Because of insufficient bleachers, the fans stood, sat on the ground, or ran up and down the side- lines cheering and yelling. Saturday nights, after the game, there was an open house at RJR. on the first floor. Each spring, the seniors looked forward to the “Senior Class Picnic” which was held at a local picnic area. All students brought a “basket” for an old-fashioned style picnic. Auditorium dedicated to R.J. Reynolds 11
