Page 'l'wunly-nine Class History THEM FRESHMEN! Once u n a time we were freshmen. The class of '49 hadx, made its exit from junior high school. We immediately elected joe Hanson as our presi- dent, and Mary Shafer as our candidate for Miss Black Eagle. That year the football team put South Charleston on the map by winning the State Championship! VVVWV THOSE SOPHOMORES! Them Freshmen! Yes, we were rapidly acquiring some savoir-faire. That year's celebrities included Jimmie Henson, our president. Clyde Schoonover played outstanding basketball, along with David McMillion, Iabo Dyer and C. Henson. We liked to think that this made possible our team,s memor- able trip to Morgantown where South Charleston lost in the final game to Huntington East, 48-45. VWVWV THOU IUNIORS! Two factors made our junior year an unusual one. Our class infringed on a sacred senior privi- lege by walking aff with Pep Week honors, the first time that this had occurred in the history of the school. And then in the spring, elaborate plans were made and adhered to for a very successful junior-Senior Prom. Page Thirty YE SENIORS! At last we had reached the highest run on the social ladder. This last and best ear of hi is school was uite an eventful one. With Bob Wiiliams as president of the student body, and jabo Dyer president of our class, many things were accom- plished. Noticeable on November 10th was the scarcity of a male element. The reason? Sadie Hawkins Day, sponsored by the Student Council. Other projects were the selection each week of an out- standing student for Student of the Week and the Fall Festival on November 26. From November 16 to 19 various types of school spirit were displayed as each class vied for top honors in the 'Pep Week contest. Incidentally, the Seniors won. Excitement mounted when, on November 20, our Black Eagles defeated the Dun- bar Bulldogs and thus enabled SCHS to keep the coveted Lions Club Trophy for another year. At this, our last homecoming game, Nancy Dillon reigned as Miss Black Eagle, with Connie Lowe and Libby Kinder attendants. The Snow Festival, sponsored by the Senior Class and held on December 21 was the next important event. Alan Farley as Master of Ceremonies put everyone into the right mood, and the highlight of the evening was, of course, when the Snow Queen, Patty Childress, was presented. Ianuary 26 marked the end of the old semester, with the Senior Class Play, Susie the Siren fol- lowing two days later. Mrs. 'Margaret Smith spon- sored the play and she is to be highly commended for the grand results. May was naturally the rush month, with events such as Senior Skip Day, the final exams from May 23-27, the band concert on May 27, the junior- Senior Prom one night later, the Baccalaureate Ser- mon on May 29, and all of the other last minute rush coming at once. May 31 was THE day, how- ever, holding in store for us a never-to-be-forgotten Commencement, which closed another chapter in the history of South Charleston High School.

Skeen the executrix of this our last Will and Testament. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, We set our siignature this first day of June, in the year of our Lor , Nineteen Hundred and Forty-Nine. Samoa CLASS or '49. Witnesses: CONSTANCE Low: NANCY D1LLoN Page Thirty-six Senior C lass Prophecy It was one of those dull nights in South Charleston. The Mayflower was empty except for a few of us Seniors who had congregated in the well known back booth. The subject of conversation had started with the semester exams and had finally ended on the ambitions of those concerned. Are you going to be a professional hypnotist? someone jokingly asked Alan Farley. No, he replied, but it would be an interesting hobby. It was then suggested that Alan hypnotize someone. When he agreed and asked for a subject, I willingly submitted. I thought hypnotism was something hard to perform, but I found out that it was easy. He just held his fingers in front of my eyes and started talking. You must make your mind blank and concentrate, he said. You are completely relaxed sleepy. Your eyelids are getting heavy. You are and very drowsy and sleepy. His voice droned on, and finally his suggestions were taking effect. I felt my eyes shutting. My limbs were dead and numb. I was becoming very sleepy. You can't stay awake much longer. I heard his voice distinctly, and his slightest wish was as strong as a command. You will obey my commands. You must. There was a brief pause, as he thought before he spoke. Then he said, You are living in the future. It is the year of 1957. You are to use your imagination and give me a complete account of what you hear and see. You tell me what has happened to your former class- mates. at 1 Y Don Mallory, the potato-chip salesman, just walked in. Hey, Maggie, guess who I just ran into. It was Eustace Chilton! He just got in from Alaska. After eight years of joumeying, he and Bert Hertel started a travel agency in Juneau. Gosh! It doesn't seem possible. Maggie, owner of the Mayflower, was amazed. As Don and Maggie rattled on, I caught little bits of their con- versation. I stepped in Dixon's Pool Room and talked to Coach Henson, Don said. He and Dolores are getting along fine. He told me that Joseph Custer, Jr., is beginning to walk. Think of that! He also told me that he saw Bob Williams the other day. In town on business, I guess. I suppose you know that he and Patty moved to Cincinnati recently and went into business with Donald Parsons and Frenchie Pauley. Something about root beer, I think. As they talked, I leamed about some of the other guys and gals that I graduated with, back in 49. Babs Husk ran an art studio on Seventh Avenue, and Nelson Wickert was a big shot over at Carbide. Richard Ham- mock was Hying instructor at the seaplane base. Jimmie Woolwine owned a swanky night club in downtown South Charleston, where so many people dance to the music of Wesley Schultz and his orchestra. Bryna Shelton was teaching in her own studio, Nancy Dillon and Eleanor Fox were employed by John Powers, and Alice Farley was West Virginia's first Congresswoman. Don left then, and I was still wondering about the rest of my buddies. I walked out on the street and bought the afternoon paper, which was edited by Rosie Thabet: printed by Ann Jackson. As I glanced through the pages, I leamed the following about my friends of '49: Jabo Dyer was playing professional football. Bill Songer was first baseman with the Dodgers. George Syms owned a grocery, where Betsy Burns and Betty Carte were employed. Averal DeWees and Charles Starkey were in the Ma- rines. Bill Arrowood and Glenn Brown were teaching in South Charleston High. Dick Dean was head manager of a local taxi stand where Roger Crawford was a taxi driver. Richard Grinstead had a radio show, which featured him at the piano. In the society section I gathered that Walter Counts was a preacher with Marshall Turley his Minister of Music and Dorothy Brown his Youth Director. Some of the deacons and other big-wigs in his church were Leonard Snyder, Janet Cline and Paul Rider. Then I came to the advertisements. A few of them were: Leam to fly. In just ten days we'll teach you to fly any airplane on the market. See Bill Crouch of the Crouch Flying School. Which Twin Has The Toni? picturing Glada and Gladys Angel, models. Listen to your favorite programs over station OSMR5 hear such stars as the Jim Roberts Quartetg Joe Hanson and Eleanor Francis starring in LOVE AFFAIR g John Jarvis and Richard Midkiff with their a Capella Choir, Howard Lewis, our genial disk jockey, and many more. Food at its best-Eat at Mac's Snack Shack-Dave Mc- Million, owner. Get the best in clothing at Ray's Department Store. ABIE Ray, proprietor. I looked up and saw Bill Wilburn, local dentist, going in to pay his monthly premium to Insurance salesman Peggy Chilton and Joyce Halbert. Tucking the newspaper in my pocket, I went over. Maybe he'll have some news, I thought to myself. Bill informed me that Walker Kennedy and Bill Batten had gone into the Real-Estate business in Huntington, and he also told me that Paula Cochrane was a big time dress designer. Georgiana Williams was head nurse at Cas Downs' Hospital. Carter Hudson had replaced Eddie Amold on the Grand Ole Opry. Patty Hundley was a dramatic instructor at our Alma Mater. Bill Payne was a brilliant surgeon. Page Thirty-seven Sauntering on over to the A 81 P Store, now under the management of Robert Shreeves, I encountered many busy model mothers. Among these were Patty CRaderj Lyons, Carol CMcBrideD Jarrett, Sunny CBolinD Monday, and Eula CTracyD Hess. From them I leamed about a lot of the kids who had graduated in '49: Employed at Carbide 8: Carbon were Virginia Hutchi- son, Ed Callis, and Anita Hix, and a lot more whose names I don't recall. Walter Green owned a chain of grocery stores. His Southem West Virginia managers were Gene Massey and Lyle Justice. Housewives were Elizabeth Cslaterj Johnson, Doraine CLiebleD Rollins, Wanda CAtkinsonD Jarvis, Libby CKinderJ Brinkley, and Patty CChildressQ Lawhorne. Lovella Foster and Doris Breedlove were waitresses at Bob Bryan's Ritz Cafe. Ronald Amos and Calvert Estep were sailing the seas in Uncle Sam's Navy. Liza Blagg was a dress stylist. Forest Godby was posing for toothpaste ads. Gene Walker was track coach at Morris Harvey. Bob Wells manufactured musical instruments. His specialty: Bass Homs! Alan Farley had an orchestra on the west coast. Singing with his band were the Green Twins, Joan and June. Bob Polf was his famous trumpet player. Connie Lowe was director of a local church choir. Some of her members were: Henrietta Lute, Mary Ellen Lucas, Charles Saloum and Genevieve Bays. Calvin Stover and Ed Thomas owned the Peoples Store, where Charlene Baum was head sales lady and Barbara Brillhart display manager. Charles Thorm was a scout for the St. Louis Cardinals. Having exhausted ourselves from talking, Bill and I decided to take in a movie. Martha Snodgrass sold us our tickets. As I passed the pop-com stand, I noticed the following advertisement: Enjoy tasty Pop-a-Lot Pop-Corn, Richard Marples, State Distributor. Being ushered to our seats by Okla Keeney, we were just in time for the news- reel, which was narrated by Paul Hudson. Doris Kibler had become a celebrity ovemight by stopping the music to the tune of several thousand dollars. The next scene flashed on, and I was startled to see Sally Sevy, U. S. ambassador to Russia, shaking hands with Pemier Stalitov. In the sports revue, Phyllis Shock was being presented a championship tennis trophy by Meta Belle Watson, Grand Commander of the Women's Athletic Association. The feature, which co-starred Carol Bailey and Carl Bashlor, was produced by Tom Twentieth Century Fox. Music was composed and conducted by Bruce Jeffries. The beginning of the movie was spoiled by the lady in front of me who wore a hat bearing a Pat Shriver label. When I asked her to remove it, she tumed around. It was Beverly Lyon, leading society damsel! Page Thirtyaight After the show, I went out to the lobby and talked to J. D. Elkins, manager of the theatre. J. D. told me that Orin McCallister and Richard Mercer had retired from the stock market and were spending their vacation on Jack Stanton's ultra-modern luxury yacht, which was cap- tained by Bill Hardy. I then left J. D. and went to the Science Hall which had been built by Jack Lane and Suzanne Swayze, who had earned millions in the ten-cent store business. The building had been dedicated to the renowned scientist, Eddie McCullough Joining a group of sight-seers, I encountered Barbara Nida, who informed me that she was getting rich quick in the jewelry business. She also informed me that Emma Davis and Mary Jo Holbert had recently had their lovelorn column, Does Your Heart Beat Different Lately? syndi- cated. I asked about my friends, Dottie and Joyce, to find that they were still cunning hams in the Barter Theatre. Further inquiries led to the following information: Ida June Skeen had become the modem version of Elsa Maxwell. The culinary artists for her fabulous festivities were Betty Isbell and Slena Marino. Her chauffeur was Gary Lloyd. Jack Binion, Vemon DeVol, Billy French, Sammy Hudson, Bill Lowther and Donald Pritchard were looking forward to their weekly game of you-know-what in you-know-who's garage. On the other hand, Joann Bays, Mary Lou Coleman, Ida Mae Isaacs and Wanda Jean McCormick, bridge en- thusiasts, were preparing to compete in a nation-wide toumament. Janis Bryan was the town's leading steamstress. Jack Wallace and Giles Breedlove ran a barber shop, where Bill Brogan cut anyone's hair who wanted to listen to politics. Jackie Buckland was their manicurist. Barbara Dotson was president of It's the Talk of the Town club. Some of its members were: Janet Ellis, Ramona Keesee, Billie Garrett, Juanita Deel and Helen Farmer. Ronald McClure had gone to Broadway, where he had been a sensation in his play, Tobacco Lane, or, For- ever Ambeerf' Itchy Schoonover was a plastic surgeon in Paris. You might know he'd end up in France. Wilma Oxley and Janet Covert were beauticians. I bade Barbara good-bye and retumed to the Mayflower, hoping some of the old gang had accumulated. The first person I saw was Danny Meyers, who had just retumed from China. He told me that he had seen Bill Watson and Teddy Thomas playing baseball for the Yangtze Reds, who had defeated the Nationalist League champs in the Old World Series. Danny and I went down to Pete Ruddle's restaurant, where Martha Scarberry and Nancy Smith were employed as cooks. While enjoying a delicious meal, Pete told us some news! Delores Jeanne Pauley was singing with Metropolitan Opera. Charlotte Oxley and Thelma Pruett ran a bakery, and Mary Alice Rogers was head of the cookie department. Loretta Buckland, janet Harris, and Evelyn Hundley were nurses in a Charleston hospital. Dottie Frizzell was a department manager at Clyde Moore's department store. Betty Lee and Pauline Sprad- ling were also employed there. Mary Kirk, Henriellen Surgeon and Mary Elizabeth Turner were singing with Fred Waring. james Watts was a great mathematician. Two of his understudies with great possibilities were the Wallace twins, Carolyn and Marilyn. Ada Watts had just been Queen for a Day. Marie Zifilippo was manufacturing a perfume called Bouquet of Roses. Norma Williams, Barbara Walls, and Laura Surgeon had gone to New York as representatives of the local chapter of the Women's Athletic Association. Jimmy Henson was the owner of Rock Lake Pool. Gosh, time sure flies, doesn't it? I said to Pete. It sure does, said Bill. just then Alan's voice interrupted me. You will be awake when I snap my fingers, he said. When they snapped I awoke, momentarily dazed. I looked around at the audience. They were all thinking. I suppose the question in their minds was: 'What will I be doing in l957?

Football Rewew . ,lk if ,, ,J an., 1 V ft ' I 'f it lt 'X We will always be proud to call South Charleston High our Alma Mater, and we will be equally proud to claim the '48 Black Eagles. The team of '48 could easily be called a dream team in several ways: one, because of its new orange satin uniforms, and another, because of its display of team spirit, fine play and good sportsmanship. If the following review helps to recapture the good old days, then its purpose will have been realized. ln the first game of the season, the Eagles won over Seth in a hard-fought contest, 19-12. Meeting Mt. Hope in the second game at Oakes Field, the Eagles fought to a 12-12 draw. Traveling to Huntington for the next game, the Chemists lost out in the final minutes- Huntington East, 13, SCHS, 0. Perhaps the most memorable of all games that season was the fourth: tangling with a highly rated Scarlet and Grey team from jackson Heights the Black Eagles, whose line play was brilliant all evening, lost slowly in the third quarter. The linal score was Stonewall 20, SCHS 0. After tasting defeat twice, the Eagles came back strongly, whipping East Bank, 7-O. ln a free scoring tilt played at Barboursville, the Webermen, hampered by injuries, lost 33-20. Kissy Henson, playing his finest game of the season, led the Eagles to a 27-21 victory over St. Albans by scoring two touchdowns and passing for two others. The luck of the Irish lost out as the Orange and Black walloped Charleston Catholic 12-0 in a muddy game played at Oakes Field. Led by Captain james Dyer, the Eagles regained the Lion's Club Trophy for the second straight year by defeating the Dunbar Bulldogs 19-0. The Eagles, while playing 9 games, winning 5, tieing 1, and losing 3, scored 116 points to their opponents' 111. Of the '48 team, the following players were seniors: james Dyer, I. C. Henson, Bob Bryan, Clyde Schoonover, Orin McCallister, Don Mallory, Roger Crawford, john Chilton, and Bob Williams. Coaches Weber and Ruby are to be commended for their excellent work with a line group of boys. One of the many outstanding things about this team was the variety of plays and the many offensive and defensive formations used. Page Seventy three 13 Y k N If 1 DAVE HCHILLION, E J.c.ueusou, G.

The Eagles, sometimes meeting superior and higher- rated teams, usually came shining through, and their never-say-die spirit won them fame through southern West Virginia.

Bill Weber's boys finished the season with. ten wins and thirteen losses, including two games played in the Section 22 tournament and one game rn Region V1 play. january 4-Nine points proved to be the losing margin. in the season's opener as Charleston High School, showing superior height and shooting skill, tripped the Eagles 43-34. january 7-Traveling to Clendenin for their second en- counter, the Webermen who led through most of the game lost out in the final minutes 40-36. january ll-lt is usually always a welcome thing to win, and such was the attitude of South Charleston stu- dents as they witnessed fine team play and spirit in a 53-34 defeat of Dunbar.

January 18-South Charleston was never headed in their first victory away from home as they set back East Bank 52-46. january 21-22-The Black Eagles again left home, traveling to Princeton and Bluefield. The Eagles fell down in defeat to Princeton 52-46, and lost a heartbreaker to Bluefield 54-53. tlhanuary 25-Everyone was on as S. C. thumped St. Al ans 60-35. Captain Dave McMillion was the big gun for the Eagles as he gathered 18 points. Schoonover and Henson ot ten each. Bill Batten, james Jabo Dyer, and Clyde Ssioonover played their last ,game for S. C. and they all showed up well. ' llanuary 28-The Eagles gained revenge for a previous ge eat as they took the Beavers of Bluefield by a score of 1-44. January 31-The boys from the West Side proved to be superior as Stonewall Jackson walloped the Eagles 54-28 in a game played at Morris Harvey gym.

C. again rolled over the Red Dragons from St. Albans, whipping them 59-42. The Eagles took an early lead and held it, never being worried or pressed.

The Bulldogs put on a big surge of points during the second half, but they still lost 51-46. March 1-Catholic lost a chance to win the Kanawha Valley Conference as they were defeated 42-38 in a surprise victory by the Eagles. McMillion netted 15 points and Henson 11.

The Eagles played, fine during the first half, but guick fouls against Warwick and Williams slowed their efense and C. H. S. went on to win by a five point margin. The seniors of the '49 team-James Dyer, Bill Batten, Clyde Schoonover, Bob Williams, J. C. Henson, and Cap- tain Dave McMillion-were ideal basketball players as well as good athletes. During the entire season, McMillion scored 334 pointsg Henson 181, Williams 139, Schoonover 64, Dyer 16, and Batten 24 points. The 1949 season was a great success in many ways, be- sides making a good showing at most of our encounters. It also began building material for future years and better basketball teams. Page Seventy-five Baseball Review As spring came to South Charleston, the young men's fancies were turned to thoughts of baseball. Coach Jerome Ruby was the man S. C. called upon to coach our strong diamond squad for the 1949 season. Holdover lettermen from the previous season made an excellent nucleus for Coach Ruby to build around. Dave McMillion was the only holdover pitcher left from the '48 team. McMillion, who is rated as one of the best pitchers in the state, also batted well, and he was an in- spiring note to the Black Eagles. Behind the plate catching were able receivers, Paul Smith and Teddy Thomas. Other holdovers were Bill Songer and I. C. Henson, veteran iniielders who have been pounding out hits all year for S. C. Lettermen in the outfield were Bill Watson, Charles Layer, and Bill French, who is playing his fourth year on the baseball team. Other outfielders were Cas Downs, who came from S. I., Charlie Williams, and Skippy Hawkins. Infielders playing a lot of good baseball for S. C. are: Eddie Garrett, Glen George, Bruce Williams, Glen Brown, and Tom Henson. Pitchers are lefty Bob Bryan, jack Swisher Cwho in his first game pitched a no-hitter, and his second game a one-hitterb, Shirley Wallot, jerry Snyder, and George Hardman. April 12-dlack Swisher started the season ol? in fine style as he pitche S. C. to a 7-O victory over Catholic. Kissy Henson homered for the Eagles. April 15-Dave McMillion showed true winning form as he pitched S. C. to a 7-2 victory over the East Bank Pioneers. A ril 20-With fine support by Dave McMillion, Jack Swiier hurled a one-hitter, defeating Charleston 2-1. April 21-Excellent relief pitching by McMillion tumed lgactl Nitro 15-5 in a high-scoring game played at Oakes re . Page Seventy-six April 26-Dave McMillion again did fine relief pitching as he tumed back Stonewall 4-2. April 29-Huntington Central took advantage of South Charleston's lack of hitting power and a few mis-cues, to turn back the Eagles, 4-2. May 3-S. C. outclassed Geredo-Kenova as McMillion twirled a one-hit game, winning ll-l. Bill Songer hit two doubles and two singles to lead the Eagles' attack. May 5-Charleston Catholic tumed back South Charles- ton's late rally, after they knocked jack Swisher out of the box. The Irish's early four-run lead in the first inning proved to be the winning margin as they won, 5-3. Glen George homered with one on in the seventh inning. May 12-Stonewall jackson was blanked by Dave Mc- Million as he pitched a two-hit shut-out, winning 4-0. May 13-Ceredo-Kenova avenged an earlier defeat by trimming the Eagles, 8-3, at Ceredo-Kenova. May 14-S. C. again was beaten, this time by Logan, 12-9. McMillion and Glen George both hit circuit blows for the Eagles. Each team collected 12 hits. May 16-Charleston was beaten again by S. C., 9-8, at Watt Powell Park. May 17-Sissonsville again set the Eagles back, defeating them 7-2 at Oakes Field. SECTION 22 May 18-Meeting St. Albans for the first time in the '49 season, S. C. was defeated 2-l in a game played at Craw- ford Field. The Dragons took advantage of S. C.'s costl errors as they shoved across a run in the first of the ninth gining. Dave McMillion pitched a three-hit game for S. This has been a fine season for South Charleston's base- ball team, under the coaching of Jerome Ruby. Coach Ruby and his boys did a Bne job, although they failed to qualify for the state toumament. With more experienced players and a lot of luck, the South Charleston fans look for a strong baseball team for the 1950 season. N 'fl in I gl 0 XX Inq.

Much of the credit for organizing the club is due Mr. E. G. Heinz, who acted as the first chairman, and Mr. Frank Oakes who was elected the first president. The interest of citizens in the club was attested by the report of the secretary on December 15, 1947, when a total membership of 295 was recorded. The activities of the club in behalf of the youth of the community and in clean sports is evident from a partial list of the club sponsored projects. The following are among the outstanding projects promoted by the club: Sponsor basketball clinics. Provide financial support to buy sports equipment. Entertain athletic squads and coaches with a banquet. Buy uniforms for majorettes. Help in selling tickets to games. Transport teams to college games. Provide motion pictures of games. Have school game schedules printed. Provide advisory committees to schools. Assist in the improvement of playgrounds and athletic fields. The 1948-49 officers of the club are: O. M.

N314 West Virginia's state capitol building, designed by the late Cass Gilbert, is of remarkable beauty and dignity. The building is the most beautiful and expensive capitol in the United State, next to our nation's capitol. The chandelier in the dome weighs four thousand pounds. ln the governor's reception room is a 60 by 26 foot rug and is said to be the largest and heaviest one-piece rug in the world. The capital, an one side, is borderlined by the Kanawha Boulevard overlooking the Kanawha River. A new project which was recently completed involved the installation of a circular driveway an the Washington Street entrance. Inside the circle is a beautiful fountain surrounded by a large bed of assorted and cultured flowers. On the outer side has been in- stalled lamp posts of Greek architecture. A tour through our state capitol will be long remembered in the importance and beauty by all.
