He has held offices in the Hi-Y and the Wranglers’ Club and liecause of his leadership ability was chosen to represent the State Student Co-operative Associa¬ tion convention. He also was on the affirmative deflate team which reached the state finals. A winsome personality coupled with a fine sense of co-operation and a high scholastic record typifies Polly brothers, co-editor of this year’s annual. Polly has given full service in her journalistic efforts and deserves a lot of credit for her work. She represented her class at Girls’ State last summer and has served faith¬ fully in the Tri-Hi-Y. Chairman of the Senate Ways and Means Committee is just one of the honors bestowed on Don Howell. He was elected vice-president of his class in both his senior and junior years. As a junior he was named co-editor of the Pea¬ nut Picker and also was on the affirmative de¬ bate team. Don highlighted his high school career by starring in football. As co-editor of this year’s Peanut, Ann Hines has worked faithfully and given much of her time toward its success. She has done out¬ standing service in the Tri-Hi-Y and the Wrang¬ lers’ Club and has served very well in the A. P. T. P. Her willingness to work has gained her the distinction of an outstanding Senior. 30 Seniors President of the Student Senate, the honor, probably the most coveted in school, this year belonged to Bobby Spivey. Bobby not only was very prominent in extracurricular activities, per¬ forming such jobs as sports editor of both the annual and newspaper, hut had an outstanding scholastic average. He rounded out his activities by playing on the football, basketball, and tennis teams. Peggy Pinner, co-editor of the Peanut Picker, has served in this capacity for the past two years and by her faithful and hard work has shown herself to he an outstanding senior. She was a member of last year ' s affirmative debate team which reached the state finals and has served well in the Tri-Hi-Y and Wranglers’ Club. She has also given much time to A. P. T. P. work. Not many girls in the Senior Class have served their school as well and faithfully as Betty Lou Penn. She has distinguished herself in the field of journalism, working on the Pea¬ nut Picker four years, serving as news editor in her junior year and then as co-editor-in-chief. She has worked well in the Glee Club, Dramatic Gub, and Tri-Hi-Y. Richard Sykes, as president of the Senior Class, has attained one of the highest honors in Suffolk High School. However, this is only one of his outstanding achievements. He has taken a great interest in dramatics, playing the lead in several plays, and is president of the Dramatic Club. In sports he distinguished him¬ self by earning a berth on the track and foot¬ ball teams.

Adviser The Junior High Club, although just organized this year, has proved to be worth-while and useful to its members. Consisting only of pupils in junior high school, this club acquaints its members with parliamentary procedure and a know¬ ledge of high school organizations. Some of the projects on the agenda for the year were a dance, which proved most successful, the presidents of various clubs as speakers, telling them just what each club had to offer, and talks by the ninth grade teachers on how to adjust themselves to high school. This new club is one of the busiest organizations in our school and one that has accomplished a great deal. 45 West Alexander Jimmy Annas Freddy Austin Anita Baker FcRRy Bennett L. J.

For those interested in future office work, the class in Office Practice provides some of the experience necessary in this field. The students become acquainted with office machines and are given advanced training in typing and shorthand. 48 Miss Lucy Britt Miss Mary St. Clair Rugg Mrs. Ann H. Burton Mrs. Mary Carter Mathematics Mathematics language Arts Social Studies and Social Studies FACULTY One of the most enjoyable spots in school is the new guid¬ ance room, pictured here, where students confer with their teach¬ ers about the aspects of their post high school career. Under the guidance of Miss Hugg, these pupils are delving into the study of plane geometry, the science of figures on a plane surface. One of the fundamen¬ tals of this class is the use of proof in solving problems. 49 Mr. Wilbert Crocker Miss Ann Jarvis Mr. Arthur Jones Miss Anna Konntz Physics and Chemistry Distributive Education Physical Education General Science and Biology FACULTY In Driver Training class, the pupils learn safety in driving an au tomobile. Under the instruction of Mr. Jones, these students are learning the proper me¬ thods of driving without danger to themselves or others.

This class presents programs in assembly and at A. P. T. P. meetings. FACULTY Here Miss Constance Newman is explaining to two home econo¬ mics pupils the art of being a good housekeeper. The girls learn cooking, sewing and how to run the home on a sound bud¬ get. To the girls in this gvm class, keeping physically fit is fun. Both boys and girls taking physical education enjoy seasonal sports along with exercises, helping them to develop sound bodies and keen minds. 52 Miss Dorothy Scarborough Librarian Mrs. Blanche Taylor Miss Reed West Mr. Lewis White Miss Gladys Yates Language Arts Language Arts Physical Education Art and Social and French Studies FACULTY An abundance of artistic ta¬ lent is not the prime essential in the class of fine arts. On the contrary, this class tends to bring out and put to the best use any hidden talent these students may have. The broad world of physics is opened to these six students who watch for the results of this ex¬ periment, conducted by their teacher, Mr. Crocker. This is the highest branch of science offered by Suffolk High School. 53 Left to Right—First Rote: Bradshaw, Hines, Brothers, Taylor, Godhcy, Joynes Second Rote: Spivey, Moore, Ruden, Coates, Quayle, Bagley I he Peanut THE STAFF POLLY BROTHERS and ANN HINES.

In the spring of 1948, this year’s staff decided to present a yearbook which was “off the beaten path. Many hours have been spent in the preparation of the ’49 Peanut. Staff meetings were held every Tuesday during third period, and much work was done after school hours. The staff is proud of the ’49 version of The Peanut and hopes that it will provide much enjoyment and many pleasant memories for the students of Suffolk High School. 55 I lie Peanut Pick STAFF PEGGY PINNER and BETTY LOU PENN.

The front page contains news of all the happenings in school pertaining to clubs and other activities that have occurred in the previous weeks. The second page holds an interest for all—the feature column. Also we find here editorials. On page three there are news and write-ups of sports events, while on page four is the Jefferson and Junior High News. These points make The Peanut Picker an outstanding publication.

SAVAGE, JR. Adviser Every organization has some sort of governing body. In our kind of de¬ mocracy, this governing body abides by the wishes of the people. Such is our Student Senate. It is made of a representative from each home room and three representatives-at-large chosen from the Junior and Senior classes by the student body. One of the biggest issues of the past year discussed by the members was the changing of the election date for the president and vice-president of the Senate from fall to spring.

Building and Grounds Committee This year the Ways and Means Committee has been most active. The reason for this is found in the enthusiasm of its members. As honorary members of the Student Senate, the Ways and Means Committee plans almost everything that is done for the school although they have no vote in the Senate. Along with the Senate, the Ways and Means Committee held a dance with Hello Basketl all, Good-bye Football” as its theme. This proved a big success and everyone enjoyed himself. A more willing committee that has the interest of the school at heart is found in few schools, but our Ways and Means Committee is just tops.

At Christmas the girls collected toys and clothes from the students and presented them to the Salvation Army for distribution among the needy. The club improved the new guidance room by buying a beautiful painting for it. 61 Left to Right—First Roto: Whitfield, Worsham, Blair, Harrell, Rundio Second Row : Blanchard.

The club is composed of boys from the freshman and sophomore classes. Once a month they have on the program a minister to speak to the club to help carry out this motto. They accompany the other Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y Clubs each month to visit the churches in the city. 62 Left to Right—First Rmc: Moore, Cook, Mr. Jones, Harrell, Skinner Second Roio: Britton, Byrd, Constant, Brown, Davies, W ard, Floyd, Griggs, Cross, Wooster, Neal, Burkette, Spivey, Haslett, Gurley, Norfleet B oys’ s enior Hi-Y OFFICERS PRESTON COOK .

Various outside speakers are invited to address the club in order that the members may obtain further information on these subjects. This club also sponsors Suffolk High students who attend the Virginia High School Literary League as debaters and public speakers. One of the best-known projects of the Wranglers’ Club is the annual George Washington Ball. This dance is highlighted by the crowning of the queen, king, prince, and princess who are elected by the student body. 65 Left to Right—First Row: Taylor, J.; Farlcss, Pierce, Goldberg, Ralph, Mitchell, Culpepper, Grumpier, Wilkins, January, Eure, Edwards, Griggs Second Roto: King, Jones, McClenny, Holladay.

The chapter has attempted to increase every member’s understanding and appreciation of F. H. A., its purpose, creed, song, color, and emblem. The chapter has planned and served several suppers, the most outstanding of which was for the Suffolk High School faculty. 67 This club is composed of talented singers, most of whom have had experience in the Glee Club but were unable to fit the newly formed choral class into their schedule this year. They made their debut at the Christmas Assembly harmonizing on several Christmas carols. They made several appearances singing in town such songs as “Vilia” from the “Merry Widow,” the spiritual “Ezekiel Saw ' The Wheel,” and “The Merry Heart.” They also helped the choral class in the Spring Concert.

This organization, working with the local chapter of the Red Cross, has carried out many useful projects. One of these was putting on a program for the servicemen at the Portsmouth Naval Hospital. Through the work of the Junior Red Cross, stretchers were provided at the football games. Also, Hallo¬ we’en, Christmas, and Easter favors were made and sent to various hospitals. As always Red Cross boxes were filled and sent to the needy children of Europe.

For the fourth straight year Coach Dick White has turned out the district football champions ably assisted by Coach Art Jones. Although every opponent pointed for the Raider contest, the Suffolk lads came through the season without a single loss in district Group II competition. Employing their Carolina style single wing attack, the Suffolk pigskinners combined a tricky passing attack with a devastating running offensive paced by speedy shifty backs. The Raiders’ regular season record included seven wins, two ties, and one loss. After a rather slow start the Suffolk squad shifted into a two-team system of play, and from then on they were dynamite to their op¬ ponents. District enemies were able to garner only six points against the alert defense of the Suffolk team. Outstanding players were numerous for the Raiders, but teamwork was the deciding factor in a season of sportmanship and victories. 72 BALI Left to Right—First : Little, Hines. L.; Sykes, Plewes.

Don Howell, returning a kick¬ off 80 yards, and Bill Ellis with his vicious tackles were the Suffolk stars. NORVIEW A blocked kick by Skin¬ ner gave the Raiders a 12- 12 tie with the Norview Pilots.

This time the scrappy Churchland Truckers were 14-0 victims. Ellis scored both touch¬ downs while Raymond Little com¬ pleted eight out of ten passes. Using the two-team system the Suf¬ folk team uncovered a power-packed squad as the Raiders really lambasted Uroup I Cradock 35-0. While admin¬ istering one of the Admiral ' s worst defeats, the Raiders completely dom¬ inated play with Sykes scoring two touchdowns on end sweeps. Melvin Poulson scored on a 44-yard dash.

Matthews chalked up two touchdowns in the rout. WARWICK The bruising Warwick Farmers really got a surprise when the Raiders journeyed to the peninsula to pulver¬ ize the Farmers 46-0.

Band A welcome addition to this year’s football season was the appearance at half¬ time of the games of the Suffolk High School Hand, now in its second year of organization. The band, resplendent in its red and grey uniforms, put on several very colorful and interesting shows. These shows each had hours of hard work behind them as Mr. Molinari spent much time planning stunts and drilling the band in them. After football season, regular W ednesday night practices were held in prep¬ aration for the district contest in Norfolk, and the Spring Concert, which was again presented in co-operation with the Choral Club.

There were added nine new members, who along with four letter men, Nell Bradshaw, Margaret Taylor, Betty Hancock, and Billie Crumpler, increased the number to thirteen. The squad was led by Nell Bradshaw, serving her third year as a cheerleader. As always the cheerleaders showed co-operation and a friendly attitude to rival cheering squads. Their hard work was displayed by their fine performance at games. A new addition to the cheering squad this year was the junior cheerleaders. This group was chosen from the freshman class and led the cheering at the Junior Varsity games. Left to Right—First Rote: Bradshaw Second Row.

Base The Suffolk High School baseball team coached by Dick White made one of the best records in Suffolk history as they won nine games w ' hile losing only one in conference competition. With a team not dominated by any individual stars the Raiders came up with numerous fine victories among them a 12-11 upset of Group I Maury. The one blotch on their splendid record occured when Matthew-W hal- ey defeated the Raider diamond boys 3-2 in a thrilling contest. The loss forced the W ' hitemcn into sharing the district baseball championship with the Governors; however, this marked the first championship for Suffolk in many years. C aptain of the trophy winning nine was Bill Thompson, stellar second sacker. Pitching mainstay was Joe Wiggins who won seven games while losing one to the State Group I Champions, Wilson. Thus the Raid¬ ers, usually noted for their inferior baseball teams, broke precedent by coming up with a winning combina¬ tion.

Coach Emily Pittman assembled a fine team of three seasoned forwards and three reserve guards, who developed into an out¬ standing combination which won eleven games while losing only one. Starting the season off w’ith a victory over Group I Cradock, the Suffolk girls won six straight games before tasting defeat at the hands of the taller Oceana “femmes.” This was the only loss suffered by the feminine cagers as they romped through the rest of their schedule without defeat. Highspot of the season was a smashing 36-21 rout of previously undefeated Smithfield. Smithfield defeated the Oceana lassies the following week which threw the district championship into a three-way tie between Suffolk, Smithfield, and Oceana. Thus the Raiderettes were forced to share the title as the three teams each finished with a conference record of eight wins and one loss. Betty Anne Holland, lanky sophomore forward, led the Raiderettes for the second year in scoring as she pushed 183 points through the hoops. She had an average of fifteen points per game. Nell Bradshaw, senior forward, scored 116 points for an average of eleven points per game, while Co-captain Lillie Mae Dillard was a fine ball handler who contributed 64 points to the attack. Co-captain “Sis” Burton, Frances Myrick, and Barbara Hassen were the first-string guards, who were prime factors in the Raiderettes outstanding season. Joyce Gatling managed this year’s team, capably assisted by Nancy Speight. 84 BRADSHAW GODBF.Y HOLLAND Forward Guard Forward HASSEN TAYLOR MYRICK Guard Forward Guard 85 Co-Captain Dillard Foru ' ard Co-Captain Burton Guard BARNES, Guard Center —Barnes, Captain Sitting—Left to Right —Saunders, Spivey, Little, Westnedge, Plewes, Fond Standing—Left to Right —Foulson, Assistant Manager ; Bradshaw; Ward, Rundio, Carver, Ellis, Umphlette, Manager ; Jones, Coach Bovs Varsity Basketball Coach “Art” Jones produced a brilliant liasketball team which copped the district Group II championship for the second year in a row. The Red Raiders started the season with a fine 38-29 triumph over Cradock and ended their regular schedule with a spectacular 36-25 trouncing of Group I Maury High School. In its own class the Suffolk five were unbeatable as they won thirteen while losing none. The overall record of the Raid¬ ers was eighteen wins and four losses, which was ample proof that this year’s basketball team was one of the finest in Suffolk history. The District tournament was a Suffolk show as the Raiders overwhelmed Kempsville and Smithfield on successive nights to grab Group II laurels. The Raiders’ success was due mainly to their teamwork and ball-handling ability. Spivey and Westnedge, two senior for¬ wards, were the scoring leaders with 306 and 184 points respectively; Captain Barnes and Plewes were the outstanding defensive players. Little, with 171 points, was an all-around player while Pond was the big man under the back- boards. Ben Umphlette and Melvin Poulson capably managed this year ' s team with Jimmy Williams assisting. 86 LITTLE POND WESTNEDGE Forward Center Forward SAUNDERS Center SPIVEY Forward PLEWES Guard Sitting—Left to Right —Bristow, Carter, Williams, Byrd, Y’ail, Boyette Standing—Left to Right —Williams, Manager; Hayes, Little, Bradshaw, Worsham, Trump, Lawyer, Babb.

Printing Pays Us Only When It Pays You! McClure Printing Company THE RUNNELS PRESS COLLEGE ANNUALS AND CATALOGS.FINE ADVERTISING PRINTING 19 West Frederick St. Phone 605 Staunton, Virginia 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 a 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.
