TENNIS 1963 VARSITY TENNIS We salute the Radford High School Ten- nis Team who, after two years of hard work and many long hours of practice, blossomed into one of the finest teams in the state of Virginia. Under the watchful eye and patient tute- lage of Coach Earl Skeens, the 1963 Tennis Team captured the State 1-B Tennis Crown. The highlight of the season was a Tennis trip to Eastern Virginia where our boys proved they were the best in the State.

WE SALUTE BASEBALL Not since 1959 had RHS fielded a base- ball team, therefore we were particularly pleased with the splendid way in which the 1963 Baseball Squad represented our school. It was the fine overall play of the team and the fine sportsmanship they exemplified that brought glorv and honor back to “The Hill.” Thus, the ’63 Squad took up where it left off in ’59, by winning a district championship.

NEW LOOK OF RHS Upper left: Jerrell Smith enters the auditorium through new doors which were installed this year to aid in the new look in the entrance hall on the main floor. Lower right: The names of the school paper and yearbook had become meaningless to the RHS student body. Therefore, the editors of the ACORN and the OAK LEAF, Anne Coughlin and Dena Bishop, planted an acorn with the hope that there will some day be an oak tree on our school campus. Upper right: Radford’s Varsity Club redesigned their school jackets. Jakie Slusher proudly sports this latest style. Lower left: A new telephone booth is shown on its way to the lower hall where it, too, added a bit to the new look. Center: Much to the pleasant surprise of the students, new tables and chairs were placed in the library.
