peanut Volume XIV Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-Six “Each Gives His Best For The Good Of AIT ’ The Suffolk High School motto sets a goal of endeavor that should receive the whole-hearted allegiance of every pupil. Individual growth follows as a natural result when a boy or girl puts his best thought and effort into every taik undertaken. Suffolk High School expects nothing less than this from its pupils m athletic and literary competition and in class assignments. A Suffolk High School pupil is expected to do his best not merely for his own advancement and glory but for the common welfare of all. Thus a pupil learns to put the interests of the whole school above purely selfish or group desire. If this motive can be made to govern activity in school, it may confidently be ex¬ pected that in later years those who go forth from Suffolk High School will be able to identify their own interests with the highest welfare of community, state, and nation, and of mankind itself.

A nation must have its king, its emperor, its president, or even its Mussolini. Every organization must have a guiding influence, whether for good or bad. A school must have its principal. The ship with a careless captain in northern waters will crash into an iceburg; in southern waters it will not weather a typhoon. The aeroplane controlled by unskilled hands will make a faulty landing and crash into bits or burn into oblivion. The nation with a weak ruler will be led into wars, panics, and disaster. How good and comforting to be placed in.o strong, wise hands. What a priceless jewel to a school is a good principal! I ' nder his capable direction good is made better, and better is made best. The delinquent youth is given careful attention. All the students are brought together in their enthusiasm by his subtle supervision, and they cooperate in building a school, firmly founded. He deprives himself of personal pleasures and benefits to further the interests of the school. He places his very heart and soul in this work of moulding many young lives—this “Master of the Ship.” ON READING To be a friend of reading is an inexhaustible source of pleasure. Heading is one of those things that is everyone’s friend. It does not make the demands that some people think friendship gives them the privilege to. Always it is ready to entertain, to enlighten, and to comfort. The only trouble is that so few people have become acquainted with this friend. Most poeple read either too much or not enough. There are those people who never pick up a book unless forced to. They cannot imagine the pleasure they are missing; pleasure not only in the sense of being entertained but of having learned something that can be stored up in the mind as food for thought. From books is trained all that knowledge which has been accumulated through all of the ages of civilization ami without which every | erson is worse off for not having. Then there are the people who read incessantly. They read any and everything. This leads to a tendency to live too much in a world of dreams and make believe. Hut there is another abuse of this friend reading. Some people read all books of one kind. This will be noticed especially among people of high school age. Here three is a great tendency to reatl only the books that were to entertain for a moment and then to be forgotten. This is the reason for the requirements of the history, government and English classes. The English classes, especially, emphasize parallel reading. They attempt to cultivate a real love for rending by helping the pupil to become better acquainted with all types of literature, modern works, the classics, novels short stories, poems, biographies, and essays.

This last year has been a full and memorable one for each member of the class. ' The Seniors have been outstanding in all activities of the school, and have filled their positions as leaders. A meeting of the Senior ( ' .lass was held early in the year, and at that time the Seniors elected ANNE ( ' ROSS their president. The other officers chosen were BOB DARDEN, vice-president; POLLY PINNER, secretary, and BETTY Bl’TLER, treas¬ urer. The Senior ( ' lass ring was then selected from several samples by a committee composed of the class officers together with WILLIAM HENRY SHEFFIELD and STEDMAN EI RE. The ring this year is dif¬ ferent from that of any other graduating class. The crest is an Old English “S” in gold; the shanks bear a picture of Suffolk High School with the school motto and the seal and motto of the State of Virginia.

Treasurer Among the Junior constellations there flashed anti shone those more brilliant lights against the background of the less brilliant, but steady and never changing stars. Flashing suddenly across the heavens, Will Gibson, who took the masculine lead in the spring dramatic production. “Merton of the Movies,” made a rocket-like rise to fame. Earlier in the spring with the presentation of the operetta. Miss Cherry- blossom.” by the Glee Club. Ernest Wilkins shone brightly, displaying his young tenor in its best form in the masculine lead. Always appearing in her regular place radiantly gleaming, Mildred Howerton brought honor to her Alma Mater and to her own name for her work on the school debating team, the newspaper, and in dramatics. Another, Frances Stallings, faithfully appeared in her place. She served as make-l ' p Editor of the Peanut Picker and as photographic Editor of the Peanut. Shining equally as bright was Mary Cross Jordan, to whom the financial suc¬ cess of the Peanut Picker was largely due. In the Peanut Picker constellation we find also the steady gleam from Jack Palmer’s weekly column, the bright twinkle of Tony Hobb’s humor, and a large cluster of others too numerous to name here. The sports constellations glittered with juniors: six lettermen in football, with Edward Wills as the 19315 captain shining most brilliantly; five boys receiving basketball letters, with John Henry Pearce as 193(5-37 captain; five girls who re¬ ceived letters for an undefeated season; three speedy men on the track team, with .1. It. Hobertson winning a first place in the state meet; and six lettermen on the baseball team. The most consistently brilliant star in sports was Arthur Jones, wlm received letters in football, basketball, baseball, ami track. Circle and Triangle Awards light the heavens of Suffolk High School with their brilliance. Of these, there are nine juniors: Mildred Howerton and Frances Stallings winning Circles, and Mary Cross Jordan. Earl Moore, Elsie Berry Yates, Billy Lyon, Lyman Brothers, Dorris Withers, and William tiibson winning Triangles. Innumerable other stars faithfully gave their light: Bill Cross. Elizabeth Norfleet, Vivian Ziemke, Margaret Hiddick. Ernest Wilkins, and Sara Phillips under whose leadership the most anticipated event of the year—the Junior-Senior Recep¬ tion — was made possible; the entire Junior Class, one and all. which stood back of each of these and with its cooperation helped them on to greater achievements; and last, but not dimmest, that diligent, bright, and constant star, the president of the Junior Class — Betsy Kendrick.

Long striding paces, Down the corridor To the sacred precinct of the school — The Library. Two rooms Of cream-color walls. And shelves with books— Books tattered and tom by long usage. Books stiff and dignified With hoards of knowledge For young, eager minds. Books with famous and magic names Imprinted on their bindings And perhaps on the flyleaf in scrawling hand— “To Jack—on his fourteenth birthday”. . . Dusty squares of sun rays streaming Through the southeast windows In the morning; And on the sill A Buddha formed into a vase Holding a dormant flower bulb. And a camel, holding on his back More sleeping bulbs; And the more remote northeast windows Viewing the graveled drive below. And the grassy ravine. Four oblong tables of oak. Around them chairs, silting primly. Placed with neat precision; Or if in use, ranging in distorted lines, And in them students slouched With puzzled frowns. Or slyly giggl ing because they could no longer Hold in their youthful mirth Even though forbidden with that stern word, Silence.” Or sitting, elbow’s placed on table. With dreams shadowing their eyes And on the panelwork. given new life With fresh brown paint. One of Corot ' s masterpieces— Mystical, dewy, fresh, yet vague— Given by a class now two years gone With the hope of being remembered; And brown plaques of honor— One for tennis. Another for public speaking. Yet another for debating. And all this on silver strips With the name of a student, the loyal son of the school. Or maybe a daughter. Engraved thereon ....

This year, for the first time, a committee on Wavs and Means was appointed whose duty consisted of presenting business to the Senate in true parliamentary form. Working in this way the Senate instituted a number of worth¬ while projects. It presented Honor Awards to those pupils who have been outstanding in participation in school activities and to those who rendered some valuable ser¬ vice to the school in some specialized field. The Senate sponsored a patron’s night at which time the parents were invited to school so that they might he brought into closer contact with the teachers and with school life of their ••hildren. An intra-mural debating team was also sponsored, which enabled the school to present experienced candidates for the state contest debates. The organization is respon¬ sible for the plan now in vogue of having one assembly jx-r week. This year’s routine business included the granting of a charter to the newly formed Dramatic ( ' .tub and the drafting of several sets of resolutions congratulating various organizations on their fine work. Of great value to the Student Senate in carrying out its plans and schemes, is the Boosters (’tub whose membership consists of those students holding Activities Tickets. This is the largest club in the school and one whose support is absolutely essential for the success of any enterprise.

BETSY KENDRICK Page Thirty-One The Peanut Picker This year, for the first time in her history. Suffolk High School has had an independent newspaper. I’p until 193f all school news was confined to a weekly page in THE Sl’FFOLK NK VS-HKHALD. At the beginning of the year, it was decided that the students might have both a newspaper and an annual on condition that the two publications work on a co¬ operative basis. This meant that the newspaper would have to be financed in such a manner as to assure the publication of the yearbook without outside assistance. Special commendation is due the Advertising Staff of the paper for having been aide to carry out this plan. Through advertisements alone, all expenses contingent upon the publication of the paper have been met—thus enabling the receipts from the paper’s circulation to be held in reserve for the yearbook. One desirable fea¬ ture of this plan has been that of having to call upon the public to support only one publication during the year. The publishing of an independent PEA.M ' T PICKED caused new difficulties to arise. Never before had the business side of a newspaper demanded considera¬ tion. In order to cope with this new situation, two staffs were organized; an editorial staff and a business staff. The editorial or news staff was composed of an Editorial Board of eight members and about twenty reporters. The duties of this staff have been to make assignments, oversee the writing of all copy, compose headlines and lay out a dummy. The duties of the Business Staff have already been mentioned with the ex¬ ception of those pertaining to the Circulation Department whose responsibility it is to distribute the pa|H rs each Friday afternoon to the homerooms and, also, to take care of the out-of-town mailing list. Such an undertaking as the publishing of this newspaper has been made ible only by the splendid cooperation shown by the Student Body of Suffolk School. Page Thirty-Two Suffolk l T.

U—I awoke this morning with foreboding that centered around the pit of my stomach. Soon attributed lhad feeling to the fact that on this day the doors of the school did open, whereupon I dashed to my shower and did shiver under it. Then to school, arriving fifteen minutes late, anil once there found myself surround¬ ed with the usual bustle and uproar. Free after 10:30 o’clock. Sept. 20—There being a fine display of school spirit demonstrated among the scholars. I myself became enthused and trudged amid dust, humanity, and traffic to the League Park to there witness the Peanut Kleven defeat Oceana, the final scon. being 30 0. The enthnsiams spurred on the players, and methinks our Mr. Chase is pleased greatly with the opening game of this football season. Oct. 13—There was great excitement among the scholars today in anticipation of the first issue of the “’Peanut Picker.” We are in reality “captain of our own ship.” now that we do publish a separate and independent publication. Everyone was truly pleased with this first issue, including Miss Johnson, its hardworking sponsor. Oct. 31—To assembly this morning to the organization of the Booster’s Club of which t ' riah Coulbourn was elected president amid much of noise and school spirit. A goodly number was there, which bodes it well for the school this year, if they carry out the purposes of this organization. Nov. la—All this night in observing the actions of parents in school, and I did notice that they became quite as excited and Mustered as do tlv. ir offsprings. All plans went oil ' well, and everyone was highly interested and entertained with the activities of the school. A highly successful evening for the school. Nov. 28-Dec. I—I did try to remain sober today and remember that this season is one in which to In thankful for my many blessings. However, I felt most hilarious, as I do always at the thought of a holiday. Nov. 30—There was great joy and much of noise today when Suffolk did capture the Virginia Class B football championship, also winning the Eastern Championship title for the second consecutive year, by defeating Clifton Forge 12-0. Dance tonight for victors. And a good time was had by ail. Dec. 13—Motored down to Chuckatuck High School to observe the opening basketball game of the season, which had to be played on the Chuckatuck gym¬ nasium on account of the lire that hath damaged our own gym. Suffolk did over¬ whelm the Norview boys and girls, the high scorers being, in the girls ' game. Kitty Baines, and in the boys’ game, “Feels Pearce. Motored home. I hen to bed. Dec. 20.—Christmas hath crept into the very air. There is a festive feeling in the atmosphere, which this morning rang with wishes for a gladsome Christmas season. Half-day session at school. The holidays hath begun! Jan. (i—Once more to school. I felt very dull ami did loath to begin work again. Taught through, the weather being very bitter. Page Thirty-Nine Jan. 24—Everybody hath fulfilled his share of cramming for this season’s exams, and doth walk around preoccupied and frowning. I remained at home this morning, having study period, and to school in the afternoon for l atin exam. Mar. 0—Did play Kempsville tonight and won a double victory. This game •loth end the basketball season. A successful season with fourteen wins and seven losses, and the losses hath been taken in good spirit. Mar. 27—On foot to school tonight despite the threatening weather, and once there and settled into my seat, allowed myself to enjoy fully the remarkable sweet soprano of Klsie Warrington opposite that great lover and wonderful tenor, Ernest Wilkins. Truly, a brilliant affair. The work of the Glee Club, of Mrs. Seward. Miss Hurff and Miss Yates were well rewarded, methinks. April 3—News with the re urn of the Suffolk nine from South Norfolk that they were defeated 13-1 in the opening game of the baseball season. April 10-14—Everybody now thinks on new clothes and corsages and freedom from the routine- April 23—I rose early and donned my Easier suit, having not lately worn any other suit, but that one. Game eight o ' clock. Anne Darker tooted several times, whereupon 1 dashed down the stairs and out the door. Then to Norfolk to the District X meet of the Virginia Literary and Athletic League. Everyone was justly happy when Suffolk placed first in almost each event. To lunch and then to show. Dome at six. Tired.happy. May 1—That bright and aspiring lad. William Gibson, did show himself worthy of the much praise bestowed upon him for his portrayal of that movie-struck lad. Merton, in the spring play. The supporting cast being excellent also. This hath proved what that diligent, dynamic director. Miss Margaret Daughtrey. can do, with able assistance. To bed at 12 o’clock. May 8-9—(Friday)—Did arrive at Charlottesville at 12:30 o’clock. After much stirabout we were settled in a boarding house, and there unpacked. Several contestants to their respective contests. Dance tonight. (Saturday)—1 arose earlier than I did expect after last night, and did spend the morning in many ways. At the track field this afternoon and was duly enthused when “Preacher’’ Hotfc rt- son dashed in for first place in the Glass It low hurdles. He is now a hero, and will be lionised by the ladies, I imagine. Supped in Richmond. Home again to¬ night at 12:30 o’clock. May 22—To the Junior-Senior tonight. A pleasant sight of slim young girls in white and pink, green and blue, and manly young men; a babble of young voices und young laughter and good humor did please my ears. June 1—There is no time for idling. Again I observe and practice frantic last-minute cramming for examination. June 5—The school hath closed its doors again except to those unfortunates who will attend for four weeks this honorable institution. MK. Al. HAWKINS Head Coach Football MK.
