MACK E. EVERETTE.Advisor Surry Central High School Foreword Veritas, Lux, Libertas— Truth, Light, Liberty These three concepts should be foremost in the minds of all students of Surry Central High School. Students are in a real sense seekers—seekers of knowledge, of wisdom, of truth. The open book is a well-known symbol of scholarship, a worthy goal. The 1964 AQUILA is a record of students who have attained some measure of success in this quest, and who, figuratively speaking, are eligible to wear the cap of liberty as a symbol of a mind freed from prejudice, from fear, and from ignorance. May the seniors and those who are to succeed them continue to study, to learn, and to serve—may they carry forward the searching lamp of truth that others may follow in its light. And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.-John 8: 32 Then shall thy light break forth-Isaiah 58: 8 Table of Contents Dedication.3 Administration. 4 School Personnel and Student Staff.6 In Memoriam.9 Student Life.10 Curriculum.22 Seniors.38 Juniors.54 Sophomores.61 Freshmen.68 Organizations.74 Athletics.88 Adve rtisements.100 2 We Dedicate . . A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops. Henry Brooks Adams The teacher ' s role is an infinitely important one in the shaping of young lives. And so to you. . . Who have guided us into new worlds of knowledge, Who have instilled within us an aesthetic appreciation for what so often seems to be the trivial and common place in life, Who have aroused in us curiosity about the world in which we live, Who have shown an understanding for our shortcomings and pleasure in our achieve¬ ments, Who have so often extended a warm helping hand to any one of us who would reach out, We, the Yearbook Staff of 1964, take great pleasure in dedicating this edition of t h e AQUILA to our teacher and friend, . . .

May his life in¬ spire us to exemplify profiles in courage and to ask what we can do for our school, our community, and our country. 9 ■mm s An attractive lobby greets students on Opening Day. vs. Freeman and assistants process new books for a new year.

When the members of the Yearbook Staff were selecting a cover for the 1964 AQUILA, they expressed a desire to have a school seal as the central design. With the permission and help of Mr. Lanier, they sponsored an art contest and invited all interested students to participate. Many students submitted drawings in competition for the prize—a 1964 yearbook. Joe Beasley and Bobby Simpson were the winners, and ideas from their entries were incorporated into our school seal. In our seal, the Golden Eagle proudly displays a banner bearing the words Veritas, Lux, Libertas —Truth, Light, Liberty. The emblems in the shield above the Eagle—the open book, the torch, and the cap of freedom —are the visible signs of the ideas expressed in the Latin words. The Staff hopes that the school will find other uses for the seal. Cheerleaders sport new uniforms to open the football season. Congratulations to Joe and Bobby!
