As one teacher says, “History is a subject you can’t avoid since all of you are in the process of making it.” In these classes an unavoidable subject is Mr. May’s Government Class. Mr. Hamilton’s World History Class. Mr. Taylor’s American History Class. 48 SCIENCE Our school offers a wide variety of scientific subjects in General Science, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. In this way a scientific course is offered at each grade level. We are proud of the equip¬ ment our school provides for our use in these subjects. Mrs. McSwain’s General Science Class. Mr. Click’s Biology Class. Mr. House’s Chemistry Class, 49 Mr. Carson’s Geometry Class. Mr. House’s Advanced Algebra Class. Mrs. Wray’s Algebra Class. MATHEMATICS Lee High gives its students an opportunity to study many forms of mathematics. Mathe¬ matics is necessary for a well-rounded curriculum and also improves a student’s abil¬ ity to concentrate and to think logically. 50 COMMERCIAL CLASSES Many phases of business training are offered at Lee High School. Business train¬ ing offers courses for both the beginning and advanced student. The Seniors, who are advanced students, may take the Vocational Office Training that gives them credit for the course as well as pay for the part-time work they do. This enables them to enter the secretarial field well-prepared. Mrs. Wilkins’s General Business Class. Mrs. Garber’s V. O. T. Class. Mrs. Couch’s Typing Class. 51 r Miss Drake’s Latin Class. Mrs. McClung’s French Class. Miss Bickle’s Spanish Class. FOREIGN LANGUAGES The aim of our language department is to teach the students the fundamentals of speaking, writing, reading, and understanding a foreign language. In studying these languages, the student learns not only the essential gram¬ mar, but also something of the cultural and historical background of the language. 52 ENGLISH English is the basis of all other subjects. The students at Lee are given the oppor¬ tunity through the classes of¬ fered to build for themselves a sound English background which will help them in any chosen profession after grad¬ uation. Fine literature, as well as instruction on the use of our English language, does much to develop the character and the cultural knowledge of the students. Miss Whitelaw’s Senior English Class. Miss Barton’s Sophomore English C lass. Miss Dorsey’s Junior English Class. 53 PHYSICAL EDUCATION Coach Myers’s Gym Class. The Physical Education classes at Lee High School are some of the most important offered. These classes help build physical health and good sports¬ manship among the students. The boys in these classes participate in football, basketball, softball, archery, tumbling, and volley ball. Through these activities our school offers a well rounded Physical Education course. INDUSTRIAL ARTS Industrial Arts is a part of the general education program at Lee High School. This class, under Mr. Wenner, offers mechanical drawing, woodwork, and other similar subjects. Each student is encouraged to show his initiative and originality. Mr. Wenner’s Industrial Ar ts Class. 54 MUSIC Miss Ruff’s Choir Class. The music department offers both instrumental and vocal training to stu¬ dents. Both the band and the various vocal groups present musical programs for the students and community. The two divisions of the music department participate in many civic activities. LIBRARY The library is an essential part of the curriculum here at Lee. Without it the students would never find the additional information necessary for many subjects. To the library staff, under the supervision of Miss Crawford, we owe a debt of gratitude for their innumerable services. Miss Crawford and Bobby Zimmerman. HOME ECONOMICS Miss Foster’s Home Economics Class. In Home Economics, under the instruction and guidance of Miss Foster, students learn some of the essentials of house-keeping. The course of study consists of cooking, sewing, nursing, and child care. The classes also learn the importance of good grooming and proper diet. D. E. D. O. Distributive Education is a co-operative program between the school and the merchants. Each student works after school and puts into practice the theories and principles he learns in the class room. All D. E. students belong to the D. E. Club. Diversified Occupations teaches the student many worthwhile and interesting subjects that can be applied profitably to everyday life.

The members of the Student Co-operative Association, with Mrs. Isabel McSwain as sponsor, believe that they have succeeded in promoting co-opera¬ tion between faculty and student body, encouraging participation in school activ¬ ities, and instituting the basic ideas of good citizenship. The student body of 1955-1956 adopted an Honor Code, led by the Student Council. The main objective of Student Council this year has been to encour¬ age observance and participation in upholding the Honor Code. Student Council sent six delegates to District Student Council meeting in Waynesboro, November 5, 1956; three delegates to State Convention, March 15-16, 1957; and ten delegates to the International Youth Forum, sponsored by the New York Herald-Tribune and Miller Rhoads, February 16, 1957. Student Council sponsored a dance, the “Pigskin Prom”, in honor of Lee High’s football team. The council worked with the PTA in giving the Christ¬ mas dance and also was responsible for the Christmas decorations in the cafe¬ teria. The members held a very successful bake sale, under the direction of the Projects Committee, on November 3, 1956. Each Tuesday morning a Student Council member introduced the speaker at the regular assembly program. All in all, the Student Council feels it has had a very successful year. OFFICERS PRESIDENT .

This year the Record Club, under the guidance of Mrs. Alma McClung, has published two issues of the magazine and the Annual. The Copy Committee of the magazine has collected the material and cor¬ rected it; the Typing Committee has typed it; the Art Committee has drawn the illustrations; and the Advertising Committee has solicited the advertisements which .help meet the cost of the magazine and the Annual. Work on the Annual began soon after the opening of school with continual photography, re-writing, correcting, and typing. In April the members of the staff attended the convention of the Southern Interscholastic Press Association in Lexington, Virginia. STAFF EDITOR OF ANNUAL EDITOR OF MAGAZINE . . ASSOCIATE EDITOR .

The Dramatic Club held its meetings each Monday and Wednesday morn¬ ing in Miss Whitelaw’s room. One of the first activities of the club was to attend the play, “Hall of Mir¬ rors”, written by a former Lee High student. During National Education Week members of the Dramatic Club participated in a radio play which was broadcast over WTON. Since Dramatic Club members must know the essentials of the stage at the beginning of the year, under the leadership of Miss Whitelaw, all new members learned the basic stage directions and moves. All these activities have helped us to attain the goal which we set for our¬ selves this year—to make this the best year Dramatic Club has ever had. OFFICERS PRESIDENT . VICE PRESIDENT SECRETARY .

They, along with the other members of the Augusta County Federation, gave presents to the Salvation Army for teenagers. The Lee High Chapter is affiliated with the State and National F.H.A. and is a member of the Augusta County Federation of which one of our members is a reporter. The club sent a delegate to the State Convention in June, a custom of the club for a number of years. OFFICERS PRESIDENT . VICE PRESIDENT . SECRETARY . TREASURER REPORTER Darlene Hoover .

The Library Club is one of the school organizations which plays an important part in our school life. Before, during, and after school some of the members work behind the desk to check books in and out, while others shelve books and arrange the magazines for the students and faculty to use and lead. Of course, this is not all that has to be done to keep our library running smoothly. Some of the members work after school each day to count circulation, read the shelves and straighten the library for the next day. Then there’s the bulletin board to be fixed, and endless notices to be sent; there’s the pasting of book pockets, the shellacking of new books, and typing and filing to be done. The members of the Library Club meet every Wednesday morning during Activity Period in the library with Miss Crawford to discuss the duties of the group and the problems that have arisen during the week.

Th e club sent two delegates to Model General Assembly in Richmond. These delegates were Rick Dennis and Donnie Trobaugh.

The first activity of the Gamma Hi-Y this year was to pledge $50.00 to World Service, and most of their projects since then have been directed toward this goal. The major projects of this club were a bottle drive and a bake sale, both of which were very successful. This club has also been interested in building good Christian character and has consequently, as a group, attended a different Staunton church once a month. OFFICERS PRESIDENT .

Since this was the first year that the Delta Hi-Y has been organized, the club has been rather inactive. As one of the social highlights of the year, they had a stag party for the members at Quick’s. This club is looking forward to a more active year in 1957-1958. OFFICERS PRESIDENT . Buzzy Houff FIRST VICE PRESIDENT . Robbie Knowles SECOND VICE PRESIDENT . Gregg Marland SECRETARY .

The members held a car wash, the proceeds of which were to pay the club’s World Service pledge. The members also attended, as a group, one of Staunton’s churches on the second Sunday of every month. Other projects were a Christmas float, which was entered in the parade, and a dance. The dance was a “Height Dance”, and the admission fee was a penny an inch per couple. The club had a special series of programs on the vocations and profession, two of which were about the ministry and the armed services. OFFICERS PRESIDENT .Charles Schindler FIRST VICE PRESIDENT .

BETA TRI Hl-Y The Beta Tri Hi-Y lias been very busy this year. Their many activities have included contributions to World Service, the promotion of school spirit, and the performance of community services. They have also adopted a little girl at V.S.D.B., taking presents and money to her and her friends. As another com¬ munity service, they helped a colored man, stricken with arthritis, by taking food and clothing to him. Of course, their club has its social side too; they have given parties for the members and their dates and attended other dances. Their main objective, however, has been to live up to the Tri Hi-Y pledge; “to Create, Maintain, and Extend throughout the home, school and community high standards of Christian character.” OFFICERS PRESIDENT .

The Delta Tri-Hi-Y was very active throughout the year. They had many bake sales, the proceeds going toward their $75.00 World Service goal. The club “adopted” a little V.S.D.B. girl to whom they held a party for her and her friends. The club had many social activities which included baseball games with the Gamma Tri-Hi-Y, a hayride and a taffy pull, and a Christmas party. As a major project, the club made Christmas corsages and sold them for fifty cents. They filled boxes with food and clothing for a welfare family and went Christmas caroling to the city home taking the people there fruit and candy. OFFICERS FRESIDENT . FIRST VICE PRESIDENT.

They had a bake sale every other month in order to raise money to reach their World Service goal of $175.00. They also sold Christmas cards which aided them in reaching their goal. The club was divided into six groups. Each group was assigned a girl or boy from V.S.D.B. to whom they gave presents at Christmas and visited throughout the year. Tn order to uphold their Christian fellowship each month, the club went, as a group, to the different churches in Staunton. OFFICERS PRESIDENT . Sharon Spiece FIRST VICE PRESIDENT .

(BUICK) VALLEY MOTOR SALES (CHRYSLER—PLYMOUTH) imetimes it is the nature of a craft to create an unbreakable tie be¬ tween itself and the worker in that held, a heart attachment equal to life¬ time devotion. One familiar example is PRINTING. Once editor, once compositor, or pressman catches the spirit of the shop, the spell is seldom broken. Like the odor of a camp fire, or a whiff of salt air, the be¬ loved tang of printer’s ink, symboli¬ cal of a great profession, gets into your heart and soul. School Annuals, Magazines, Newspapers and Special Printing, all smack of it. It is an invisible link that binds all intelli¬ gence together. It is the stimulus for creation in business or romance. This craftsmanship, this devotion to service and alertness to business needs, has nourished and developed enormous industrial vitality and whichever way the course of the future runs, the printer will always find himself able to adapt his helpfu ' ness to new opportunity.
