) — THE STUDENT BODY of SUFFOLK HIGH SCHOOL SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA Proudly Presents The Peanut OF 19 48 Volume XXVI Co - E ditors-in - Chief MARY EVELYN CROSS—SKiMUND STEIN Business Manager DONALD LEVY Advisers MISS VIRGINIA BRINKLEY -MR. WILBERT CROCKER COACH I.KWIS K. VVH1TK DEDICATION .... One who has been with us for the past six years and has brought such glory to our school certainly deserves the very greatest honor that we can bestow upon him. Through the able coaching of Mr. Lewis R. White, Suffolk High School has produced three successive district championship football teams. But, besides being a maker of champions on the football field, Cap ' n Dick ' as he is better known to most of us, is our friend and adviser who teaches us the rules of the game both in and out of school. We sincerely hope that he who has influenced our lives for the best for several years in the past will be with us for many more to come. It is a very great privilege for us to pay tribute to our coach and friend, Mr. Lewis R. White, by dedicating to him the XXVI Volume of THE PEANUT. FOREWORD . . . . We, the staff of Thk Pkanit of ' 4K. proudly present The C ircus . Many a jesting friend upon seeing our school with its divers activities in full swing, has tripped the light fantastic by remarking that it is as confusing as a three ring circus . Taking this little idea in hand, we have created this world’s greatest show w hich we are now presenting to you. What is the first thing that announces a circus coming to town? Rut of course, it’s a parade. Just as a circus has to have performers, so a school has to have students who are shown in our Parade. Mere it comes now. Let’s follow it. We have arrrived at the Rig Tent. It represents our school building in case you didn’t know. Is anyo ne looking? No? Well , let’s take a peep at the show. The ring master appears. The show begins. When the lion trainer cracks his whip, the lion goes through his act Poor teachers have only books to use. Wouldn ' t it be grand if students showed as much aptitude as the lion does? Classes, the main feature of school, are presented in the first of our three rings. What have we here? It must he the activities section. Suffolk High’s clubs do much for our dear ole Alma Mater. So we’ve put Activities in the second ring just as we find that the properties man and his company are the backbone of a circus troop. Look at those startling acrobats swinging about at the top of that tent! Perhaps our athletes aren ' t that awe-inspiring, but they present good entertainment in ring three. Cnder Sports wc find along with the champions the football trophy of which we’re very proud. We hear the barkers announcing such unusual things! Yes, the Side Shows attract many. Here the stars of the performance appear and are recognize ) for their various fascinating talents. Let ' s see whether the freaks are anything more than just our¬ selves as others see us. So. while leaving the lot, we hear the barkers announcing the last performance of the evening. Come one, come all to t’ c greatest show on earth.” SPONSORS MISS VIRGINIA BRINKLEY . MRS.

In every organization there must be a record of the year ' s work. The Pea¬ nut, our annual publication, has this responsibility in Suffolk High School. Think of all the fun we’ll have years from now looking at our friends’ pictures in The Peanut of ' 48. As we’re reminiscing we ' ll probably wonder what became of that guy who was voted “most likely to succeed.” Not only does the annual serve as a record of our happy htgh school days, but also it provides a means for its creators to gain good experience. Journalism classes are held twice a week during activities period in order that the students may learn how an annual is put together. First, the staff must decide the all- important theme. Then, the editors with their assistants plan their sections of the annual with great deliberation, for each year they try to make that issue the best publication in the history of Suffolk High School. 35 Left to Riyht—First Rote: Mayo, Saillcr, Howell, F„ Howell, ! ..

Also, tor the first time in the history of the paper the editors were juniors, those selected for the job being Don Howell and Peggy Pinner. In connection with the paper, journalism classes were instituted to train the news writers. These classes were held every Monday and Friday during third period. Miss Basler conducted the classes, giving information on how the paper was to be edited and printed. As so often in the past, another top-flight paper, which is a credit to the school, has been published. The members of this year ' s staff take pride in the fact that they had a part in helping Suffolk High publish a paper which won a rating of “Distinguished” in the Virginia High School League literary contests for 1946 - 1947 , sharing honors with three other Group 11 school pajiers in the state.

Adviser The purpose of the Wranglers’ C lub is to promote debating and public speak¬ ing. In order that the members may obtain information on these subjects, various outside speakers are invited to address the organization. The club sponsors the students from Suffolk High School who, as entrants in debating and public speaking contests, attend the Virginia High School I.itefan League. Another annual project of the Wranglers ' Club is the George Washington Ball, which is given in February. A queen and a maid of honor of the dance are elected from the student body. Indeed, the Wranglers’ Club is an organization of which our school can be proud. 38 The Student Senate Left to Right—First Row: Pinner, Lovelace, Saunders, S., Cross, Brothers, Mr. Savage, Hancock, Tisdale, Winslow, llaliel, Wesson, Salmon.

Secretary MK. W. R. SAVAGE. JR. Adviser The Student Senate of Suffolk High School, which is our governing body, is based on one of the most democratic forms of government known to man. It is a government of representatives chosen by the students to represent them by making the rules and regulations which they are required to live up to. Its president, who must be from the Senior Class and its vice-president, from the Junior Class, are voted on by all the members of the high school. Each home room is represented by a delegate chosen by its members. These representatives express the will of the students bv relaying messages and requests to the Senate meetings where they are thoroughly discussed and acted upon, if desirable. However, if an issue of great importance arises, such as the revision of the constitution, the matter is brought before the students as a whole where a popular vote is secured. Another division of our governing body is the Ways and Means Committee which is very closely related to the Senate, its members even being honorary Senate members. Truly. Suffolk High School has a very democratic form of government, which in turn produces better results since it is composed of the students themselves. 39 The Ways and Means Committee Jack Stroud, Chairman FINANCE COMMITTEE Sigmund Stein, Chairman Mr. W.

Try outs are given at the beginning of each school year, and meetings are held twice weekly on Tuesday and Thursday. Once a girl is in the Glee Club, she must pass at least three subjects in order to maintain membership. “All Through The Day” was the selection chosen by the club to sing for the A. P. T. P. which they jointly sponsored with the Boys’ Glee Club. Every year at Christmas time the two clubs join voices to present one of the most beautiful assemblies of the school term. Choral training teaches students ap¬ preciation of good music and arrange¬ ments, and at the same time gives them the pleasure of creating something others will enjoy.

The tnemlxrs have prepared and served for several outstanding occasions during the year. They sponsored open house in the Home Economies department after A. P. T. P. meetings. They made articles for the Red Cross, and also aided the physical education department by making new red “pennies” so that the teams could be distinguished more easily. 44 The Camera Club The newly organize ! Camera Club was begun thi year for the purpose of furnishing instruction and practice for all the camera-mi tided students of Suffolk High School. Each member of this club furnishes his own equipment. The group meets once a week, on Wednesday, and at each meeting, ways of improving technique in taking pictures, printing, and developing films are taught. The school recently purchased photographic equipment which is used to demonstrate gtxnl photography. OFFICERS ROBERT BANGLEY. HENRY ODOM. JUL1ANNH ELLISON. MR. WILBERT CROCKER. . President .

()ther projects of the club this year were sponsoring a radio program for the Tuberculosis Association and redecorating and taking care of the girls’ rest room on the third floor. One of the highlights of the ' 47 program was the annual District Hi- ' r Conference, which was successfully held this year at Suffolk High School. Much of the responsibility for this event fell upon the shoulders of this orgam zation. The Senior Tri Hi-Y sent three delegates to the convention. 50 Tlw Junior Tri-Hi Y OFFICERS BETTY BIRDSONG.

Contributions and gifts for overseas purposes were very generous, and volunteers for all projects responded whenever called upon. The members made favors for the various holidays and sent them to the servicemen in the Tidewater hosp. tals. Several trips were made in the Red Cross truck to the Naval Hospital in Norfolk by the members, accompanied by Miss Marable. Our Council had interesting programs, among which were a talk by the Rabbi from the local synagogue, an illustrated lecture by Mrs. Landon Maxey, and a discussion by Miss Betsey Womack of the Home Service Division. With these informative programs rnd the help of our new adviser, we have had a most active year. One of the big events was the sending of Hannah Rose as delegate to the 1947 Red Cross Convention in Cleveland. The local Chapter of the American Red Cross sponsored and appropriated funds for this trip. 52 FINE ARTS This class is under the guidance of Miss Yates and has its purpose to aid students in developing their artistic ta¬ lents.

It was presented by the Sports¬ man Shop of Norfolk to the school that won the championship three years in succession. We wish to dedicate this space to the players of the first team of each of the three years who were largely responsible for our keep¬ ing this trophy by listing their names, realizing that there art- many more who had a pail in the victories and who will not be re¬ cognized : .lack Annas C laud Eley Jimmy Baines Raleigh Ellis Bill Barnes Johnny Hagan Harold Barrett Boldiy Saunders, ( o-caplam Bob Churn ( al in Schadel Forrest Mallette, Co-captain 1040 TEAM la-.

(Dick) White has been at StiflFolk High School he has been head coach for the last three during which time he has pro¬ duced championship teams. Coach White’s assistant this year is new on the coaching staff but not new to Suffolk High, for Coach Art” Jones is a graduate of our Alma Mater. Both coach¬ es have won the respect of every one by their leadership and a bility to turn out championship teams. OUR CO-CAPTAINS Our co-captains for this year’s football team were Hill Barnes and Bob Crocker. They did a fine job in steering the 1947 team on to the third straight cham¬ pionship which won for Suffolk permanent possession of the I )is- trict Trophy donated by the Sportsman Shop of Norfolk. Barnes as stationary guard and Crocker as blocking back, played positions which seldom receive glory but are essential to a good team. These boys will long be remembered as the co-captains of one of the greatest football teams of Suffolk High School. CO-CAPTAINS ( ROCKHR and BARNES 63 Fotftball Suffolk High, having one of its greatest football seasons, won ten games while its only loss was at the hands of a college M team. The Red Raiders scored a total of 285 points to their opponents’ 51. Only seven points were scor¬ ed against Suffolk in district. I. BOYKTTK Left I tickle 64 Summary competition.

SUFFOLK 21— HARRISONBURG 7 HOLLAND Left Lad SUFFOLK 52— CHURCHLAND 0 Running up their highest score of the season, the Raiders outclassed a help¬ less Churchland team. Suf¬ folk: showed an outstanding offensive game with seven different players scoring at least one touchdown. OS Perhaps one of the reasons for the Raiders’ splendid season was the tine support rendered by the civic-minded clubs of Suffolk. The Rotary and the Kiwanis Clubs gave a very substantial reward in the form of banquets for the pigskin tiers.

Suffolk 21—Matthew-Whaley 6 Suffolk ended one ol its greatest football seasons in history bv topping a hard lighting Matthew W haley team in Suffolk ' s first win in the Peanut How l Game played at Peanut Park.

In the first three games Suffolk lost to Nor- view, Broad Creek, and Cradoek because of the poor support backing our pitchers. Suffolk finally found its stride in downing Churchland. Deep Creek, (ireat Bridge—Hickory, Portlock, Kemps- ville, and Morrison for six straight victories.. Af¬ ter Oceana defeated the Bed Raiders, Suffolk, not to be outdone, overcame Poquoson and South Norfolk in their next two games. Next came the game with Maury. Suffolk, playing one of its best games of the season behind the outstanding pitching of Calvin Schadel. forced Maury to go all out to w ' in the struggle. Suffolk walloped Alexander Park to climax one of the most suc¬ cessful seasons for many years. Suffolk was led by the battery of Raleigh Kllis and Calvin Schadel. Besides being a great pitcher, Schadel also led the team in batting.

Highland Springs, ami Suffolk. Led by Richard Sykes, who scored ten of the fifteen points, Suffolk placed third. Although this was the first meet Suffolk had taken part in, we made a very good showing. The next was between Churchland, Morrison, and Suffolk. Morrison placed first, Churchland, second, and Suffolk, third. Sykes again led the Suffolk track¬ men. The last meet of the season before the district meet in Norfolk was between C unlock ami Suffolk. Cradock was the victor. Schadel was the high man for Suffolk. Suffolk was handicapped in track meets by not having enough bo s to partici¬ pate in each event.

EI.EY KOZ K SPIVEY When one looks at the record compiled by the 1047 tennis team of Suffolk High, it seems as if it would he good material for Robert Ripley’s “Believe It or Not.” Facing eight opponents, including Group I Maury, Hampton, and Nor view, the Raiders whitewashed every opponent. Miss Pittman’s proteges then proceeded to cop all but one honor in the state doubles and singles competition at Charlottesville. Their one loss of the season was in the state finals in singles. Buck Kozak, who won the Group II and 111 singles championships lost to Delmar Sylvia in a hard fought battle. In the doubles competition the Raiders ran away from the pack with Claud Kiev and Bob Spivex winning the Group I. II, and 111 championships. Thus the Raider racketeers closed one of the most successful reasons in any major sport during Suffolk High School history. Boys ' Basketball Left to Right—l irst Row.

After compiling a season’s record of 15 victories and one defeat in Group 11 com¬ petition during the regular season, the Suffolk cagers won the championship hy defeating Matthew-Whaley 44-27 and their old nemesis, Cradock High, 30-28 in the play-offs at Portsmouth. The Raiders then journeyed to Roanoke College in Salem, Virginia, where the annual state Group 11 cham¬ pionship tournament was held. In their first encounter the “luckless” Suffolk i|uint lost out to the towering boys from Norton High School, who eventually won the state championship. Forward Raymond Little, who was a thorn in the enemy’s side all season, scored l(i points in this hardt ' ought Itattle which ended ( 0-42. After opening the season with an easy victory, there was an air of confidence about the flashy Suffolk ag¬ gregation as they rolled through their schedule in im¬ pressive style. Their only loss in their own competition proved to he an incentive for the Raiders as the Suffolk fans were treated to some of the best basketball seen on the local court in many years. The typical Suffolk sport small ship was displayed fully by the hardwood toys. The crack Suffolk five, controlling the Iwckhoards in nearly every game despite their lack of height, were led by Captain Buck Kozak, who was a bulwark on defense. Boh Crocker, a senior sharpshooting forward, was second in the individual scoring race with 169 points. Jack Annas, playing his last year for Suffolk at guard, scored 165 points to closely follow Crocker. Bobby Spivey, a junior, Bobby Pond, sophomore center, and Bill Brothers, a senior guard, contributed much to the Raider’s attack. On a team of stars Raymond Little was | erhaps the brightest light. Although the flashy forward didn’t shoot much during the season, his un¬ canny accuracy enabled him to score 189 points to lead the 47-48 Raiders to their most successful season in recent years. Managing this championship team were Raleigh Ellis and Ben Umphlette. PLEWE - Cl AffO BARNEY - GUARD 77 Byers of Cradook gels the opening tip off from I’ond of Suffolk as Crocker, No. 81. looks on.

Taylor, Habel, Andrews, Birdsong When the 47-4X edition of the girls’ basketball team started practice in November, things didn’t look too bright as the Suffolk lassies had lost all their first string forwards of the preceding year. But under the able coaching of Miss Emily Pittman, the Kaiderettes deve¬ loped into one of the outstanding girls ' teams in their dist rict. Suffering only one loss, the Raider sextet finished second in district standing. Their only defeat came at the hands of the league leaders. South Norfolk, who now have a win streak of 44 games. The Suffolk femmes led the South Norfolk Tigerettes at half time, but the older Tigerettes proved too classy in the last half as they won handily 29 to IX. One of the main reasons for the girls’ success on the hardwood was the superlative defensive work turned in by the Suffolk guards. Capably led by Captain Helen Davies, Sarah Carr, ami Barbara Hassen, the Suffolk guards held the opposition to an average of IX points per game. As the Kaiderettes scored point- while holding their opimnents to 2U . they won ten games, lost one, and tied one game with Morrison 2X to 2K. Freshman Betty Anne Holland aggregated almost one-half the team’s total score as she poured 17X jtoinls through the hoops. The lanky forward averaged ap¬ proximately 15 points per game in her first season of basketball. A speedy forward. Nell Bradshaw, wa second in the scoring race a- she garnered III points. Lilly Mac Dillard, a clever little forward, scored 54 points as the Kaiderettes wrote finis to another success¬ ful season. This year ' s Kaiderettes wore cajtably managed by Sarah Crocker, assisted by Joyce Gatling. 79 1948 RECORD Won 10 Lost 1 Tied 1 Suffolk 33 Matthew- halo) 11 Suffolk 40 Cradock 15 Suffolk 18 South Norfolk 29 Suffolk 37 t hurchland 11 Suffolk 25 Nor view 23 Suffolk 28 Warwick 28 Suffolk 25 Great-Bridge 17 Suffolk 30 Cradock 10 Suffolk 32 Poquoson 13 Suffolk 41 Oceana 29 Suffolk 45 Kvmttsvillc 16 Suffolk 23 Port lock 14 377 216 81 Left to Right : Turner, Hancock.

This year ' s squad had only two lettennen, Nell Bradshaw and Sigmund Stein. The new members are Joan Turner, Rettv Hancock, Margaret Taylor, Billie Grumpier, Clarence Smith, and Mills Riddick. The cheerleaders were seen at every game, regardless of weather, adorned in their white uniforms with red monograms. When basketball season opened, only five cheerleaders were allowed on the floor. This was a state law, but the cheerleaders divided up so that each could take part in leading the yells. The spectators cannot imagine how much an ear-spliting cheer from the grandstands or a packed gymnasium boasts the confidence of everyone on the team. Much credit should go to the cheerleaders who spent long hours practicing yells, learning new ones, and being on the job always at games. 82 MARY EVELYN CROSS As co-editor of Thk Peanut, Man Evelyn Cross is really a busy girl. Her efficiency and willingness to work have made her one of our school ' s leaders. She is president of the Senior Tri Hi-Y and finds time for playing on the girls’ basketball team. Even though she is busy with her extra-curricular activities, she has been able to keep her grades above average. Certainly in view of these things she has justly won a place among the Outstanding Seniors of ’48. OUTSTAN DING BILL ALLEN Hilly is one of the busiest boys in high school. We know him best as president of the Senior Class. Besides holding this important office. Hill finds time to serve on the Program Committee of the A. P. T. P. and on the Assembly Com¬ mittee. He is a member of the Dramatic Club and played on the football team. Taking these things and his fine record into consideration, we have chosen him as an outstanding Senior. JACK STROUD Here is a boy that needs no introduction. As chairman of the Ways and Means Committee Jack Stroud has done a big job well. He has played a part in making our football team a champion one by being such an efficient manager. Jack is very active in Hi-Y work. He is president of the Suffolk Hi-Y Council and a member of the Boys’ Senior Hi-Y Club. Yes, we take prick- in placing him among the Outstanding Seniors of ' 48. 84 SENIORS BILL THOMPSON Tops! Just tops is what we are really capable of saying about Bill, our line Student Senate president, who is always willing to give and take advice for anything that he thinks will help for the betterment of our school. He is one of our baseball players and also an active member in the Dramatic Club, having taken one of the lead¬ ing roles in our annual play. He is also a member of the Monogram Club, an honorary athletic society. With all his activity and tine scholastic rating in school, Bill finds time to be a per¬ sonality plus friend. SIGMUND STEIN A Superlative Senior—Yes, that’s one way of describing “Siggie, our co-editor of the annual this year. As leader of our Cheerleading Squad he was right there ready to cheer Suffolk’s teams to victory. He acted as Chairman of our Finance Committee which is the hard task of keeping the school within its budget. It would be hard to for¬ get that Sigmund is one of our champion debat¬ ers. He also served as a most capable president of his homeroom. Among all his many titles. Sig- gie is a fine, all round student and friend, who has been able to keep his scholastic average “above average. SARAH CROCKER One seldom finds a student as well-liked and popular as Sarah Crocker. This year, as secretary of the Senior Class and treasurer of the Senior Tri Hi-Y, she has proved herself an outstanding leader. Sarah has been a hard-working manager of the girls’ basketball team, an efficient Peanu t Picker reporter, and as chairman of the assembly committee she has provided the school with many fine programs. These many activities, together with her pleasant personality and friendliness, make Sarah rank high among not only the ment¬ ors of the Senior Class but also among the whole student body of Suffolk High School. 85 s SENIOR w Most Studious Milton Chalkley Mary Evelyn Cross Most Popular Rill Allen Sarah Crocker Wittiest Alvin McBride Sarah Anne Fee SUPERLATIVES Biggest Pests Marjorie Barnes Bob Churn Best Dancers Audrey Jane Oliver Jack Annas Most Conceited Raleigh Ellis Helen Wesson 87 WHO ' S ZOO Meek as a Lamb Ann Rawles Big as an Elephant Bill Boyette Wild as Wolves Jerry McKown and (ieorge Constant Flighty as a Bird Winnie Taylor Sly as a Fox Beverly Carter Graceful as a Swan Anita Kerpleman 8 WHO ' S ZOO Silly aa a Goose John Carver Cute as a Monkey Joan Turner Happy as a Lark Frances Howell Swift as an Antelope Richard Sykes Laugh like a Hyena Henny Plewes Sweet as a Love Bird Margaret Taylor Proud as a Peacock Betty Lou Penn Wild as a March Hare Sarah Ann Fee Slow as a Turtle Bpbby Spivey Our Junior-Senior Banquet-Speeches, songs, and food!”- And the hand played on!” It ' s festive time—as we dance ' down Mexico Way.

March, Jr. American Shoe Repair I A (Sometimes it is the nature of a craft to create an unbreakable tie between itself and the worker in that field, a heart attachment equal to lifetime devotion. One familiar example is PRINTING. Once editor, once compositor, or press¬ man catches the spirit of- the shop, the spell is seldom broken. Like the odor of y camp fire, or a whiff of salt air. the beloved 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 intelligence together. It is the stimulus for creation in business or romance. This craftsmanship, this devotion to service and alert¬ ness to business needs, has nourished and developed an enormous industrial vitality, and whichever way the course of the future runs, the printer will always find himself able to adapt his helpfulness to new opportunity. ears of experience have taupht vs!
