CO NFEDERA TE PUBLISHED BY THE YEARBOOK STAFF OF 1964 RAPPAHANNOCK HIGH SCHOOL WARSAW, VIRGINIA FOREWORD WHAT IS A HIGH SCHOOL? When you think of a high school, what do you see? This is the picture that comes to me: A high s chool is people—teenagers and all. It’s assemblies and classes and a rush in the hall. It’s fun in the lunchroom, the race to the line; It’s friendship and laughter as together we dine. It’s panic at report cards; it’s red and gray; It’s thrills and excitement and memories that stay. Suspense fills the hallway, and rivalry’s keen. Laughter and buzz sessions together may team. A high school means projects and clubs with their fun, And everyone working ’till all tasks are done; Tense moments at ball games—Will we win or not? That “Fighting Rebel” spirit means more than we thought! What is a high school? What is its story? We shall tell it here in all of its glory! 2 CONTENTS TITLE PAGE FOREWORD CONTENTS DEDICATION ADMINISTRATION SEN IORS JUNIORS SOPHOMORES FRESHMEN JUNIOR HIGH ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS ACTIVITIES ADVERTISERS STATISTICS ACKNOWLEDGMENT ALMA MATER 3 WITH SINCERE ADMIRATION • • • For their fine display of sportsmanship.

The CONFEDERATE is published annually by a staff which includes thirty students. Their work commences in September and ends in June. The staff endeavors to make the CONFEDERATE of vital interest to the students, and at the same time to maintain the high standards required of a quality yearbook. This year we are especially proud of our yearbook because it is informative as well as pictorial. In the spring, volunteers are selected from the student body on the basis of ability. Abiding by school regulations, the co-editors cannot hold other major offices. We have tried to present our school and the work we do because we are proud of Rappahan¬ nock High School and its accomplishments. B. H.

The staff of the REBEL YELL has suc¬ ceeded in accomplishing its main purpose. This purpose was to give students the benefit of working with this type of publication, to encourage and publish creative writing of students, and to provide a medium of expres¬ sion for the students. It is believed that the newspaper gives students the opportunity to display their literary talents through an out¬ let of creative writing. The staff has published six issues of the REBEL YELL which have been distributed to approximately 190 subscribers. This has been accomplished through the cooperation of staff members, advisors, faculty members, class re¬ porters, typing classes and the student body in general. The REBEL YELL has met with some de¬ gree of financial success this year. It is the hope of the staff that next year’s newspaper will prove to he even more successful.

The Future Business Leaders of America is spon¬ sored by the National Business Education Association, a Department of the National Education Association of the United States, with offices in Washington, D. C. Phi Beta Lambda is the College Division of FBLA. FBLA is designed particularly for those students who are looking forward to careers in business. One of its chief objectives is to develop strong, aggressive leader¬ ship so that these future businessmen and women may participate more effectively in the business and com¬ munity life of which they are part. Membership in the FBLA is open to any student who is taking one or more business subjects. Nineteen old members welcomed nineteen new members in September. Dropout, no; diploma, yes! We are proud of our new members! Virginia Polytechnic Institute’s Phi Beta Lambda sponsored a Spelling Project in which all members en¬ rolled in a business subject participated. The students who scored 100 and received a certificate were Doris Delano, Sally Clements, Virginia Teese, Ola Lemon, and Bertha Lewis. “Today Student Leaders —- Tomorrow Business Lead¬ ers” was the theme of the year’s activities. Programs dur¬ ing the year included a radio script, “Station FBLA”; a skit, “Girl Behind the Machine”; timed writing contests, “Race of Time”; panel on parliamentary procedures; a spelling bee; a speaker, Mrs. Robert C.

It derives its name from the middle letter of the collegiate honor so¬ ciety, Phi Beta Kappa. The motto of the Beta Club is “Duncamus Allis Serviendo” which means, “Let us lead by serving others.” Its purpose is to stimulate effort, reward achievement, and encourage its members to con¬ tinue their education after high school. The Beta Club promotes ideals of honesty, service, and leadership through service projects and annual State Conventions. This year the Rappahannock High School Beta Club has had among its projects the preparing of bulletin boards at the beginning of school to welcome the stu¬ dents. In October our school was host to College Day. Members of the Beta Club served as guides on that day. The highlight of the Beta year was the State Con¬ vention, held in Roanoke this year. Rappahannock was represented by nine members, who also served as tellers for the State Election. Each year the Beta Club has an assembly program to inform students of the purposes and objectives of the Beta Club. At the conclusion of this program, four new prospective members were tapped.

The Future Homemakers were very active this year sponsoring many projects and activities. Faye Burgess, chapter president, represented our school at FHA convention in Roanoke while Bonnie Bowis, federation president, attended National Conven¬ tion in Kansas City. The chapter chose as its special project for the year “Stay in school.” Various speakers talked at chapter meetings on the importance of staying in school. Some of the members visited drop-outs and urged them to return to school; others coached students who were having difficulty with their subjects. Other activities included the preparation of bulletin boards and exhibits for the halls; the collection of records, jewelry, and aprons for the Lynchburg Colony; the remembrance of faculty and maintenance workers; the organization of a “Clothes Rack” for people to choose from and use; and a joint FFA-FHA outdoor spaghetti supper for students, parents, faculty, and other school officials. The chapter also adopted a family which in¬ cluded children of school age. It constructed needed clothing for them and remembered them at Christmas with appropriate gifts. One of the highlights of the year is the observance of FHA Week. The week was celebrated by remembering the teachers with flowers, by fixing a bulletin hoard for the home economics department, by entertaining the Northern Neck home economic teachers, and by inviting Mr. Stover to lunch.

Awards were presented at that time for the year’s work. Many attended Short Course at Blacksburg, various camps, and participated in the Northern Neck State Fair. Each of us is again looking forward to the summer and its activities. We expect to observe National 4-H Club Week and Rural Life Sunday to acquaint our com¬ munities with our club work. A Light Horse and Pony Club was formed as a new project and the members are thoroughly enjoying themselves. The District contests are to be held in Warsaw in April. Various members are planning to en¬ ter the competition in fields such as: food and nutrition, dress revue, public speaking, elec¬ tricity, breads, dairy and poultry foods, tractor driving, and livestock judging. Eleven girls and eighteen hoys will compete. Accomplishments through 4-H Club work are one step toward training boys and girls to be¬ come better citizens. ■ Si m Bonnie Bowis—Blue rib¬ bon winner for Dress Re- Mary Anna Sanders—First place winner in the Public Speaking Contest. vue.

Elaine, it’s a hard choice to make, isn’t it? The Library Club has had a successful year having worked diligently towards fulfilling its purposes. Since the club is composed of library assistants and other stu¬ dents interested in books and library improvement, the success of the club is closely related to whatever suc¬ cess can be claimed by the library itself. Without the work of the library assistants the library could not function smoothly. Reading has increased this year. At the end of a seven and one-half month period 1,880 non-fictions and 3,514 fiction books had been circulated. Students are reading better books. This marks a step toward the ac¬ complishment of our main purpose to encourage stu¬ dents to read more books and to read books of greater literary value. Members of the club have kept the library attractive with appropriate bulletin boards. They have assisted in processing books and shelving them, in typing cards and in keeping the library in order. Programs held by the club have included: an outside speaker, Mrs. Dabney Welford; book reviews by mem¬ bers; debates by the school debating team; library in¬ structions; and a story-writing contest. National Library week was observed as was teacher appreciation week. At the end of the school year the club awards a library pin to the member who has contributed most to the li¬ brary during the school year.

Mothershead, Kathy .ehlia The Rappahannock Glee Club is to be commended for upholding its reputation for fine choral singing. The seventy-one members have put forth a great deal of time and effort to make it one of the best. Since the school is newly consolidated, it was necessary for the members to sell candy in order to buy the neces¬ sary risers. Under the direction of Mrs. Miriam Rice, choral director, the club displayed its talent at the Christmas Concert and at Sabine Hall where they sang for the Senior Woman ' s Club. In April the Madrigal group performed for t e Rich- mond-Westmoreland Counties Virginia Education Associa¬ tion. They also took part in the joint Holy Week services held at Warsaw Methodist Church. The club took an active part in the dedication services of our school. Perhaps the most exciting activity was the Spring Con¬ cert held on May 1, in the school auditorium. Strains of harmony ushered out the year with another fine performance of showmanship shown at the Bacca¬ laureate Sermon and Commencement Exercises. The seniors left Rappahannock with an air of nostalgia and with a knowledge of music. The Glee Club would not have been able to thrive this year without the assistance of our accompanists. 51 SCIENCE FAIR The Rappahannock High School Science Club, affiliated with the Science Clubs of America, is an organization which seeks to stimulate an increasing knowledge and understanding of science. The Science Club provides ample scope for the development of leadership, responsibility, initiative, and creative ideas among the student members. Upon joining the club, each member is obligated to pledge his allegiance to the by-laws and actively participate in a group whose purpose is to develop science interest and talent. During the year, the club has greatly profited from such fields of study as partnership among plants and animals, significant characteristics of rocks, and the formation and discovery of caverns. The highlight of the year is the Science Fair, an event dedicated to inspiring greater interest among students in the fields of pure and applied science. It is a collection of exhibits, each of which is de¬ signed to show a biological, chemical, physical, or technical principle. To win, an exhibit must be in¬ dividually made and declared best by the judges, in which case the winners from our club will receive a science fair pin. Gene Brown exhibits talking machine.

The Rebels’ first experience on the gridiron proved to be a successful and exciting one. Compared with other teams in the area, the team’s final record of two wins and three losses proved a tribute to every one of its members. The Rebels’ first game against King George High resulted in the season’s only one-sided final score. Suffering from “first- game jitters,” the Red-Gray allowed the Foxes a quick first quarter score and fin¬ ished the game on the short end of a 48- 19 score. Following the first game loss, the Rebels roared back and defeated King William High 20-6. The final two losses of the short season came at the hands of Wash¬ ington Lee High School and the In¬ dians of Northumberland High. After scor¬ ing first in both contests, the Rebels fell to defeat by the identical scores of 20-7. In a tight defensive game played between the final two losses, the Rebels defeated the JV’s of Christchurch School 7-0. Business and professional men in our community raised almost $2,000 to buy the initial order of football equipment. Bill Wright, former University of Virginia player; Bill King, former coach at Peters¬ burg High, and James N. Stover, Principal, assisted Coach Pitman. Their interest and support are appreciated. Coach Pitman commended Johnny Gray for the weekly ' news articles and James Smith for being a superior manager. ROW I: Bobby Mallory, Rod Coggin, A. D.

GIRLS’ BASKETBALL TEAM GAINS EXPERIENCE A very excited and optimistic Rebelette team opened its season with a victory over Caroline. The first quarter found the Rebelettes behind 7-4. The girls then scored 13 points to Caroline’s 4 and at the half the score stood 16-11, Rappahan¬ nock. At the beginning of the third period the Cardinals tied the score. However, the Rebelettes were not to be stopped and with victory in sight settled down to steady ball playing. When the final buzzer had sounded the Rebelettes had overcome Caro¬ line by a score of 25-19. On Friday, December 13, the Rebelettes played Tappahannock. The end of the first quarter found the Warriors ahead 12-6, and at the half 21-7. The Rebelettes revived in the third period and outscored the Warriors by 4 points. It was not enough, however, and the final score was 39-17, Tappahannock. The Rebelettes played their first game away from home at Lancaster. At half-time the score was 23-9 in favor of the Red Devils. The third quarter found the score 28-16. As the fourth period progressed so did Rebelette teamwork. The game took on a new light, but time was ticking away. As the game ended the score stood 36-31, Red Devil victory! Lancaster returned the game at the beginning of the New Year. The first half was close with Lancaster leading by only a slim margin of 14-11. However, the opposition overpowered the Rebelettes in the second half, and the game ended 29-14. The Indians of Northumberland played the Rebelettes their next game. The score at half-time was 20-13 in favor of the Indians. The second half proved disappointing for the Rebelettes and the final score was 40-25. The Rebelettes went to Tappahannock for a game which the Warriors won, 46-20. The Tigers of W L handed the Rebelettes another defeat on January 24; the score was 32-10. The final game of the season was the most disappointing and unsuccessful for Rappahannock’s Rebelettes. Northumberland out- scored them 54-7. Tell it to the camera. Now that’s what I call getting up in the air about the situation. Not now, Betty, the ref’s watching. I like the exercise, but the game is confusing. 56 Chris Sanders, Roger Hanks, Larry Lewis, Ed Smith, A. D. Davis. ROW II: Coach Pitman, Billy Clark, Johnny Lewis, Leonard ROW I ! Rock, Larry Altaffer « Four out of five of Coach Pitman’s starting Rebels returned this year along with a large percentage of the bench, which was supplemented by the junior I varsity. The Rebels got off to a promising start, but hit a slump in mid-season. Nevertheless, they managed a couple of wins, at the end of the season to boost their record. High scorer for the Rebels was Larry Lewis with 172 points. Ed Smith and Johnny Lewis followed with 120 points and 116 points, respectively. A. D. Davis hit for 41, Roger Hanks, 24; Leonard Rock, 23; Billy Clark, 19; and Larry Altaffer, 16. Coach Pitman realized a great mark of improvement in the team throughout the year and hoped that the momentum would carry into next year.

While our football team was enjoying its first year on the gridiron, we cheerleaders were experiencing our first year on the football sidelines cheering for our Rebels. Along with finding it a lot of fun, it proved to he a challenge which we were proud to meet. Every Friday afternoon found us perched on shaky ladders taping streamers to the goal posts, and every Friday evening, hoarse from screaming, “Hold that line! “Push ' em back! “We want a touchdown!” To put the finishing touches on a wonderful new experience, and to show our Rebels how proud we were of them, we pre¬ pared a gala feast with music and dancing following the final game of the season. For some, it was a time to look hack and remember; for others, a time to look forward—forward to another year, another game, another team to defeat. With the end of football season, came the beginning of basket¬ ball season which, for us cheerleaders, meant hard work and I still think it looks like a big fight. every-day practice under the coaching of Mrs. Edwards. New cheers had to he made up; old ones, improved. As the first game approached, one could feel a wave of excitement sweep through the school as new signs and posters urging our teams to victory filled the halls. Now, a new kind of excitement and a different kind of game drew our Rebel rooters to the stands. The thrill of over-times, tight games, close scores, and precision shooting of basketball overshadowed the ruggedness, the vigor, the metal clashing, tfnd the bigness of football. But basketball season must also come to an end, and we cheerleaders must leave our duties to next year’s group. But next year, the biggest part of the thrill will he gone. No longer will we all he “Rebel cheerleaders together. But then, for others, the glamour will he just beginning, and for them, wonderful times, and wonderful memories are ahead. 59 REBELS SHARE LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP WITH TAPPAHANNOCK After losing their first game of the 1964 base¬ ball season to Tappahannock, Rappahannock won seven straight games and a Co-Championship of District F Group III baseball. Coach Fred Pit¬ man worked extremely hard with his team, great¬ ly improving last year’s 4-4 record. The Rebels had two fine starting pitchers in Roger Hanks and Larry Altaffer. Hanks had a record of 5 and 1, including a no-hitter against Lancaster. Altaffer was 2 and 0, also having to his credit a no-hitter, again at the expense of Lan¬ caster. (Both will be back next year). Roger pitched a total of 35% innings, with an incred¬ ible earned-run average of 0.19. Altaffer pitched 19% innings; his earned-run average was 2.81. Leading hitters for the Rebels were Larry Altaf¬ fer with an average of .500; Roger Hanks, .416; ROW I: E. Barrack, R. Withers, R. Hanks, A. D. Davis, N. Heitchew. ROW II: M. Packett, A. Smith, T.

The season had a wet beginning; our first game with Caroline was postponed. The following week, however, we met Tappahannock, our arch rival. In the second inning Tappahannock scored 3 runs and thereafter, was never behind. The Rebelettes were able to score only in the fifth inning. The final score was Tappahannock, 13; Rappahannock, 4 . The Rebelettes won the next game from Lancaster by a forfeit. On April 24, Lancaster’s newly formed team over¬ powered the Rebelettes 16-11. Tappahannock returned a game to a better prepared Rebelette team which dealt them a surprising and crush¬ ing blow, 21-10 win. With this victory our confidence was restored and the Rebelettes played excellent softball. W L was next on the schedule; and they were de¬ feated 12-6. Northumberland bowed to R.H.S. on May 12 by a score of 15-10. At this point the Rebelettes’ record was 3 wins in 5 games. With only two- games remaining the Rebel¬ ettes were determined not to be defeated. The Rebelettes returned a game with Northumberland. This was a close one all the way with each team playing superb softball. The Rebelettes came through with the final score, 5-0. A shutout victory! After having been rained out three times the final game was played at Caroline. At the end of the fifth inning Caroline was leading 2-0. A grim, determined Rappahannock scored five run s in the sixth inning and defeated Caroline 5-2. The Rebelettes are very pleased and proud of their successful record—5 wins and 2 losses.

After a successful 1964 season, the Rebel trackmen ran, jumped, and tossed to an even better campaign this year, which saw them finish second in the state to a strong track school, Onancock. The development of a few newcomers to the track scene, to supplement the Rappahannock track “veterans,” proved to be the suc¬ cess story this year. The Rebels won their first two meets over Northumberland in their opener, and Lancaster and Caroline in a triple meet. They then dropped their only regular season contest with Christchurch, an all-boys’ school. At the Rappahannock Group IB Relays held in Fredericksburg at James Monroe High School, the Rebels made a fine showing, placing in several events. Sweeping eight first places, they brought the second successive District Championship to Rappahannock. In the State meet the trackmen placed as follows: Dickie Brooks, first in the mile run; A. D. Davis, first in the 440; Larry Wertman, second in the 100 yard dash; Edward Smith, second in the low hurdles; Roger Hanks, second in the high jump; Leonard Rock, third in the shot-put; Everett Lewis, fourth in the discus; and Edward Smith, A. D. Davis, Danny Becker, and Bobby Sanders, second in the mile relay.

The primary function of the Safety Patrol at Rappahannock High School is to assist the bus drivers in transporting pupils safely to and from school. The Patrol is organized to have two patrolmen on each bus. One is stationed at the front of the bus to assist pupils who, on entering or leaving the bus, have to cross in front of traffic. The second patrolman is stationed toward the rear of the bus to guard against unsafe practices by pupils, such as standing up while the bus is moving, putting arms or heads out of windows, tussling with one another, or en¬ gaging in any activity that might divert the attention of the driver from the important duty of operating the bus safely.

The delegates to Girls State were Beverly Anne Delano and Adeline Bowen; Ben Franklin and Brad Lowery attended Boys’ State. These two states are sponsored by the American Legion and their Women’s Auxiliary. The purpose of this week was to help develop a greater un¬ derstanding of the workings of our government. Discussions on ' various phases of the government on the community, state, and national level were led by many highly qualified leaders. Among these were the mayor of Richmond, Virginia, Mrs. Eleanor Shephard; the governor of Vir ginia, Albertis S. Harrison; and a congressman for North Carolina, William Jennings Bryan Dorn. The delegates also ran a mock government of their own, hav¬ ing two political parties, city and state elections, and party con¬ ventions. The week was climaxed by the election of the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Attorney General of both states. This week was most enjoyable and informative, and all delegates re¬ turned home with a broader knowledge of their government. The four delegates.

I ' RAPPAHANNOCK - HOST SCHOOL ON COLLEGE DAY Lucy Rice, Nancy O ' Dell, and a College Day visitor dis¬ cuss prospects of attending Madison College with repre¬ sentative. On Thursday, October II, Rappahannock High School hosted the area high schools on the annual College Day. This day enabled students to confer with representatives of the colleges of their choice about college programs, re¬ quirements, and studies. Over fifty representatives of institutions of higher learn¬ ing, including colleges and universities, business schools, nursing schools, and the Armed Forces were invited to attend.

Each student had three interview choices. Rappahannock students feel hat much was gained from the day. Parents are talking with representatives of Johnston- Willis Hospital.

A distinct feeling of excitement pervaded the air as one by one, we seniors arrived at school to leave on our senior trip. A sense of togetherness enveloped us as the bus left, and even the cloudy snowiness of the cold, early morning could not dim our spirits. Our day was finally here. To merely say that we enjoyed ourselves would be a gross understatement. Accompa¬ nied by Mrs. McKenney, Mrs. Lowery, Mrs. Clements, and Mr. Booker, we watched the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, walked up the Washington Monument, (here the adults insisted that we make this trip alone!), toured the Capitol, took a subway ride under the streets to the Senate Office Building, were guided through the Library of Congress, and walked through the Supreme Court Building. To complete a wonderful day, we were taken to the beautiful waterfront restaurant, Hogate’s, where we all enjoyed a superb meal. Needless to say, at 6:00 45 weary, over¬ stuffed, but completely satisfied seniors boarded the bus for home with many new and humorous experiences to relate to friends, and many wonderful memories to cherish. Is it the price or the food that’s bothering you girls? was a The changing of the guar at the Tomb of the Unknowi Soldier. seniors Seniors begin hike up to the Capitol.

There was a man who had a vision— A vision of equality and truth. There was a man who had a heart— A heart full of compassion and grace. But this man is here no longer. This man, who loved his country so much Is gone, never to see again this land he died for, Never to hear again the laughter of his children, Never to return the smiles of his pretty wife. This man, who gave so much, Was given in return ridicule, slander, and the ultimate gift—a bullet from the gun of a cowardly assassin. Three shots rang out in the cheering throng And our leader fell, never to rise again. Though he is gone, his memory lives thereafter In the hearts and minds of tho se who knew him. Perhaps now, in this inhuman act, We shall gain the courage to stand for the things that he thought were right. Perhaps now, through this inhuman act, We shall realize, as never before, The champion for freedom that we had. Three shots rang out in the cheering throng And our leader fell, never to rise again. Dear God, let it he not, that he died in vain! by Nancy O’Dell 85 r , . :: s : SHOP BEN FRANKLIN AND SAVE mmMm BEN FRANKLIN 5 AND 10 Main and Church Streets Kilmarnock, Virginia Try the Dime Store First CALLAO SELF SERVICE PRES BROWN ' S 14 W.
