HERCULES Hercules is known to all as a strong man oj myth- ology. He was promised immortality if he could per- form twelve tasks that were regarded as impossible. These, in spite of every obstacle, he accomplished. And, just as Hercules is immortal, so too are the organizations oj VHS, immortal. Graduating seniors will never forget the gay times they spent at their club meetings, laughing and joking with fellow members and friends. The students who par- ticipated in band, choir, or orchestra will always remem- ber the tedious, but enjoyable times they spent practicing for their much looked-forward-to concerts. But even though many young students will enter and later leave forever the portals of VHS, they can be certain that their organization will always be a permanent fixture in Vir- ginia High School.

Regular annual projects including decorating the corridors at Christmas, filling Red Cross boxes, sponsoring Students’ Day. and furnishing guides for Career Day. A new project, selling pop at school games, as a success. The members strived for better un- derstanding and co-operation between students and faculty, and for a stronger voice in school life. Pep Council To promote their ideals of pep, sportsmanship and school spirit, the 1953 Pep Council sold Home- coming pins, planned pep assemblies, and helped pay for the six cheerleaders’ uniforms and trans- portation.
