This beautiful and impressive mansion was built by Thomas Lee, grandfather of Robert E. Lee. This building, due to the reconstruction work of the Robert E. Lee Memorial Foundation, is still standing in good condition. They have endeavored to restore, furnish, preserve, and maintain it as a national shrine in perpetual memory of the Commander-in-Chief of the Confederate Armies, Robert E. Lee. The Great House, as the central building of the extensive estate is often called, is uniformly balanced, serene, massive, and austere. Fine brick work in Flemish bond comprises the walls, there are glazed headers in the upper and lower stories and wide corners, jambs, and arches of rubbed brick. On the north and south sides are two doorways of moulded bricks, with stone stair- ways rising to them in balanced flights. The stone balustrade at the Southern doorway is the only one of this kind known to exist in the colonies. One of the most interesting features of the building is, however, the two grogs of four chimney stacks, joined by arches and forming pavilions over the hipped roof at each end of the house. ' The house is built according to the traditional H plan of the Seventeenth Century with a hall occupying the center which, because of its symmetry and proportions, arouses the admiration of both layman and architect. This hall is richly paneled and has a range of Corinthian philasters. Each wing, of which there are four, consists of two rooms, a larger and a smaller. There are two stories, a ground fioor, on which are the bedrooms, and a main story embodying the principal living rooms. Some of these rooms have painted walls and others panelling with dadoes. There are many mantels which remain from the first period of the house. As students of Robert E. Lee High School our interest, naturally centers about the southeast chamber, the room where Robert E. Lee was born. The Mother's room and the adjoining nursery have been restored as they were at the time of Lee's birth. There are mahogany paneled doors and oyster white walls surrounding the Adam mantel in the chamber, Beyond each corner of the house stands a brick out-building. These are known as the Southeast, Southwest, Northeast, and Northwest Dependencies and have been called by succeeding generations in accordance with their use, the kitchen, master's office, dairy, gardener's house, and storehouse. The Southeast Dependency is a fine example of an old southern colonial kitchen. lt contains a fireplace twelve feet wide, six feet high, and five feet deep. lt is supposed to be capable of roasting a fair sized ox. A laundry, walled in kitchen court with a cobblestone center, herb garden, and a smokehouse complete the group. The Southwest Dependency or the office in which Thomas Lee conducted his legal affairs contains three rooms, each with a fireplace, and one central chimney. The Northeast Dependency, used as a workroom and a storehouse, has plastered walls and a brick fioor. The Northwest Dependency is the Plantation office in which the masters of Stratford met with their overseers, servants, and tradesmen. Another important feature of the grounds is the beautiful garden east of the Great House and beyond the Southeast and Northeast Dependencies. The formal walled garden, with its grassed terraces, box borders, and patterned after the Lee Coat-of-Arms, is a revelation of the grand manner of the Eighteenth Century. VVithin its walls bloom again many old fashioned perennials, fragrant shrubs, and beautiful fiowers. a..Looking north from the mansion across a wooded park one sees the Potomac River. A landing and a nearby mill and millpond also catch the eye. Departing from the vast estate, covering in all eleven hundred acres of wooded land cut by winding ravines, you look back upon a harmonious plantation group rising simply and majestically in its soft coloring of age, a fitting memorial to a man so noble as General Robert E. Lee. SCENES FROM STRATFORD I'1.ANTAT1oN OI-'Iflclc xNYURK ROOM STRAT l-'ORD H.'XI.I.

My subject is Planning a Life. A planless life is like a ship without a compass. It lacks direction and is therefore unable to reach its destination. VVe should begin now to make life plans, and in making these plans, it is important for each one to establish high ideals, for it is these ideals that are the most significant factors in forming character. The quality of one's ideals will determine the excellence of his achievement. It has been said that a man's ideal, like his horizon, is constantly receding from him as he advances toward itf, Tn making our plans we should keep in mind two thoughts: the rights and obligations of an individual. Shall we clamor always for our rights and scarcely think of our obligations to others? Which is the more important, and what are the obligations which face each one of us? One of the most important is prepara- tion for citizenship of tomorrow. Upon good loyal citizens depends the welfare of our country. We cannot accomplish very much in life unless we are thoughtful and considerate of our fellow man, so let each of us keep in mind the Golden Rule. We live in a democracy which has been established as a result of great sacrifice on the part of our forefathers. ln view of this, we should not fail to respect it and remain loyal to it under all conditions. If we recognize and meet these obliga- tions, we shall 'go far toward living good, useful lives. But in planning our future, we must never lose sight of the importance of making the most of the present. Perhaps, even in our generation, although now there seems to be hopeless confusion and turmoil, there will arise some modern statesman as great as Washington, some soldier as great as jackson, some gentle leader of men as great as Lee. They may come from our very midst. However, I believe that a lasting peace for the future will depend upon the day-by-day honest effort to plan and to live the best now and thus find peace within. Look to this day! i For it is Life, the very Life of Life. ln its brief course lie all the Verities And Realities of your Existence: The Bliss of Growth, The Glory of Action, The Splendor of Beauty. For Yesterday is but a Dream, And Tomorrow is only a Vision, But Today well-lived makes every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness, And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope. Look well therefore to this Day V' To the class of 1940, l say 'fFarewellf' SAL U TATO RY KATI-IEIQINIQ KIVUGHAN Tonight is class night. A night of glory for the graduating class, earned by four years of hard work at Robert E. Lee High School. Class night is for us to enjoy and it is the wish of the class of '40 that you, our fathers, mothers, and friends will enjoy each happy moment with us. There are many reasons to be proud of graduating from any high school. But WE are especially proud of graduating from a high school bearing the name of Robert lf. Lee. During our four years here we have had constantly before us his high sense of honor, his sincerity, and his other admirable qualities. He is a model worthy to be imitated by any boy or girl, but we are sincerely gratified to claim him as our ideal because he has all of the characteristics of a charming Southern gentleman. After our graduation from this school it will be even more necessary for us to remember his example. So no matter where our paths may lead, let us not forget our great leader. lf we are confronted by a problem that we cannot solve or by an obstacle that we cannot surmount, we should ask ourselves one question, K'What would Robert E. Lee do if he were in my place ? Robert E. Lee would remember honor before gain, humility before pride, and right before wrong. Defeat did not discourage him. He accepted the hard way with a smile if a shadow of doubt marred the easy path. He, too, realized that 'fdeeds are more powerful than words. It is his example that is going to help us answer our question, What would Robert E. Lee do if he were in my place ? If we follow the high ideals of one so worthy of emulation, I feel sure that we shall bring pride and honor to our school. Graduation night is the last meeting of many friends. lt is the last link in our chain of memory so soon to be broken. VVe are glad that you, our friends, and parents, are to be a part of this last and lovely memory. We know that you share eagerly our joy. For all along the way you have encouraged us in all our endeavors, and sympathized with us in our discouragements. So on this our happy night l bid you f'VVELCOlVlE.,' 1 SENIOR CLASS 1940 JOIIN ALBERT BLACKBURN CLYDE WALTON BROOKS M ILTON fDNYEN CULPEPPER, IQICIIARD VERNON GARBER PI-:YTON TERRY GISH, JR.

The brilliant characterization, and the magnificence and richness of the sets and costumes marked the production as the most outstanding play ever presented at Lee High. Especially line were the performances of the leading characters--the Elizabeth of Virginia Marino, and the Essex as portrayed by Curtis Pfeiffer. These two leading players have had extensive previous experience and turned in memorable performances as the leads in Sun-Up, which was presented by the Senior Dramatic Club in the fall of this year. To the role of the Queen, Virginia Marino brought the fortunate qualifications of a deep, rich voice and strongly cut features, both of which she used to the best advantage. The maturity of interpre- tation, her diction and bearing gave the characterization of Elizabeth vigor and understanding. In the role of Lord Essex, Curtis Pfeiffer showed surprising flexibility. His courtly manner and expressive gestures added dash and verve to his excellent interpretation of the handsome lord. Members of the supporting cast also played their roles more than competently. Among these, Peyton Gish as Lord Cecil stood out with his fine sarcasm and subtle mastery of court intrigue. Wayne Hagaman, as the dashing gallant, Sir VValter Raleigh, turned in a fiery, sword-rattling performance. The part of Penelope, the demure little Queenls maid, was well done by jen White. Making the most of a small part, she left an impression that will be remembered. Jimmy Timberlake appeared to advantage in the part of poet, Sir Francis Bacon. Milton Culpepper's interpretation of the Court Fool provided an amusing interlude to the heavier drama. The entire cast did a fine piece of work in the pleasing arrangement of the ensembles, and paid particular attention to the minor niceties that gave the production its finish and effectiveness. The variety and profusion of the costumes with their brilliant color and richness of fabric lent an air of authenticity which brought the period and its people to life. The designs for the sets were drawn by Matthias Larner, Vincent Grande, and Allen Pfeilfer. From these designs the scenery was built by the Manual Training Classes under the guidance of Mr. Wenne1'. Other artistic details, including a reproduction of the British Royal Coat of Arms, were done by Mary Trenor. The entire production staff did a piece of work which deserves equal praise with that of the cast. It is those behind the scenes who prepare the way for the actor's entrance. Elizabeth the Queen was directed by Mr. Cohron, who for four years has been director of Senior Dramatics at Lee High.

Halleck's call for recruits as grid practice got under way the first of September. Of this group only five had won nionograms in previous years and when Captain-elect Harner decided to go to S. M. A. it left the team without a climax 1'unner. Billy Van Fossen was elected captain in Harner's stead. LEE O-V. S. D. B. 12 For the lirst time in twelve years V.S.D.B. emerged victorious from their fray with the Fighting Leemen. Led by Layton, they punched over two well- earned touchdowns, meanwhile keeping the Blue and White well in check. LEE O-LANE 33 Scoring in CVC1'y period, the greatly superior Lane team wore Lee down with an endless stream of reserves. Although defeated, the Leemen showed great im- provement over their play in the V. S. D. B. game, and at times dashed out with a nice attack, especially via the air. LEE O-COVINGTON 13 ln a valiant Fight against great odds the Leemen played one of their best games, but the Cougars got the breaks and Lee was forced to be satisfied with a moral victory. Slusser's end play was commendable. LEE OAWAYN ESRORO 6 Failure to capitalize on the breaks cost Lee this game to their bitter rivals. Beautiful punting by McRae early pushed Lee into a hole, and in the first period VVaynesboro pushed across the game's only tally. 'E' LEE OWLEXINGTON 34 Led by the powerful Lindsey, Lexing- ton's veterans ran roughshod over the smaller team from Lee. The Leemen never threatened while the HRed Hurri- cane scored almost at will to hand Lee their worst defeat of the season. LEE OfCLlFTON FORGE Z1 Although they turned in their best game here, Lee was forced to take their sixth straight whitewashing of the season from the championship team of Clifton Forge. Playing on the home field put life into the entire team, but they were simply overpowered by sheer weight and num- bers. LEE OeHARRISONRURG 25 For the sixth straight year Lee was forced to.bow to their bitterest rival. Lee was unable to penetrate into Blue Streak territory but seldom, and each time the massive Harrisonburg line stopped the threat before it was well started. LEE 12-SHENANDOAH 6 Out for blood after seven straight lick- ings, the Leemen came through in great style to score their first points and win their first game of the season. Captain Van Fossen's beautiful punt return of seventy yards was one of the prettiest runs seen here in years, and it broke the scoring ice for the victory-starved Leemen. Undaunted by Shenandoah's comeback to tie the game, the Leemen launched an aerial attack in the final quarter that won the contest and gave the Leemen their only triumph of their entire campaign. LEE O-HOT SPRINGS 20 Playing far from home without Slusser and Spitzer, the Leemen suffered a let- dovvn after their win from Shenandoah and bowed to the l-lot Springs eleven by a three-touchdown margin. Lee pene- trated their opponentsl territory only twice, and both times fell far short of paying territory. P Ev, , V ,V , , , . .

Again Captain-elect Harner was to be sadly missed as Lee tried to build another championship team with only one letter-man as a nucleus. The first game with the Alumni was a rough and exciting affair. The Leemen couldn't quite cope with Almarode, the Odlonnells, the Hassetts, and other ex-stars, and fell by a 28-27 score. Bridgewater's well-coached Eaglets were the Leemen's next opponent and the boys in Blue and White soon found that they were no match for their foes who, led by Brake with 26 points, swamped Lee 58-28. At Clifton Forge the Halleck men won their first game of the year with a win over the mountaineers. The Leemen were far more superior than the 29-22 score indicated. Billy Moomaw topped the scorers. Lee's bitter rivals, Harrisonburg's Blue Streaks, were next on the card, and the Rockingham lads soundly trounced a lighting Lee team. The fast-breaking Blue Streaks, led by Humphries, scored a 42-19 win. Winchestei' journeyed down to Lee to win a close, exciting game. The score wsa frequently tied and the game was unsettled until the final minute. The score was 33-31. Although outscoring their opponents in every period but the second, the Blue and White dropped a 22-16 contest to Covington's Cougars. The game was close throughout, but the Leemen were behind from the start and couldn't catch up. Led by Lindsay, Lexington's Red Hurricane scored a close 21-15 win over the Fighting Leemen at Lexington. Lindsay was the big gun, as he scored all but four of Lexington's points. V.S.D.B. ran the Leemenls losing streak to hve straight when they won a rough and tumble scrap by 21-20. Brizendine led his team to a well-earned victory in a game wherein tempers ran high. Playing Beverley Manor on the country lads, court, the Leemen broke their losing streak by rolling up the biggest score of the year as they won 44-13. Led by Rowe, who scored ten points each half, the Leemen were never threatened as they scored at will. ' Continuing their comeback, the Leemen easily overcame the Waynesboro quintet in a ball game that frequently appeared on the verge of becoming a brawl. There was no question of the superior team, however, as Lee gained revenge for the grid defeat 26-14. Playing Beverley Manor for the second time within a week, the Leemen repeated their former victory, though in less convincing fashion. The Blue and VVhite missed numerous shots, but won 31-17 anyhow. Although expecting to make a better showing than previously, the Leemen were well-nigh swept off the court as both Crogan and Brake scored 25 points to leadpBridgewater's Eaglets to a 61-15 win. Holt was Hhigh-man for Lee with four points. Undaunted by the shelling of a few nights earlier the Blue and White found Clifton Forge easy pickings and won easily with 43 points to the Mountaineers' 17. Billy Moomaw rang up 14 points for the second highest of the season. 1n the second game with Harrisonburg Lee strove desperately to win, but their arch-rivals had too much on the ball, and led by Humphries, they duplicated their former triumph. Lee's Wayne Hagaman salvaged something by being far and away the best man on the Hoor. The final score was 46-26. Getting two points following each half's tipoff, Lexington found it sufficient to win the second game by a 26-22 score. Again it was Lindsay who did the damage. Reasserting their superiority over the Waynesboro quintet, Lee won on its home court two nights later in convincing fashion. Except for a last-quarter slump the score would have been much higher than the 37-16 it was. As always, the games with V.S.D.H. were thrilling, and this was probably the most hotly contested game of the year. Numerous arguments and fouls punctu- ated the fray and several players were ejected. The deaf lads kept a slight margin throughout the ruckus and won a highly disputed 31-28 decision. Playing their final game away from home after a week's layoff, the Blue and White found it difficult to get the range, missing almost a half hundred shots. Poor foul shooting contributed even more for a chance to tie the game after the linal whistle was muffed and despite Quickls eight points Lee dropped an 18-17 decision.
