At Boys ' State, Larry Rose was elected City Councilor and Larry Lennon ran for the nomination for Lieutenant Governor for all of Boys ' State. He was a member of the Federalist Party. From the inspiration of the sessions at Boys ' and Girls ' State, the THS students returned with a new awareness of the importance that the American government plays in their lives and with an established responsibility to preserve the American ideals of freedom. 1967 candidates and alternates plan excitedly for summer trips to Radford and William Mary for Boys ' and Girls ' State. 6 THS students take top honors in Forensics Once again Tappahannock High School came home with honors in Forensics, with two students holding first places, Brian Parker in Boys ' Prose, and Dottie Turner in Spelling, and two holding seconds, Nancy Davis and Jeff O ' Dell, both in Public Speak- ing, In school competition, results were as follows: Larry Rose, first in Boys ' Poetry; Theresa Hilton, first in Girls ' Poetry; Carolyn Downer, first in Girls ' Prose; Brian Parker, first in Boys ' Prose; Nancy Davis, first in Girls ' Public Speaking; Jeff O ' Dell, first in Boys ' Public Speaking; and Dottie Turner, first in Spelling.

Tappahannock High School celebrated its Fourth Annual Homecoming with a pa- rade on Friday evening October 14th, fea- turing a marching band, colorful floats, and a number of Homecoming princesses. Starting at Jeanette Drive and following a course up Water Lane on to Prince Street, the floats paused in front of the Judges, Mrs. Phil Winston, Arnold Motley, and Joseph Spruill, Jr, , and then proceeded to the school, where the units dispersed. Following the parade, the Tappahan- nock Warriors met the Middlesex Saxons. During half time, Mr. Burmss welcomed guests and alumni returning for the event, after which Coach Ashton announced the winners of the best floats in the parade. These were: First place--Junior Class; Second place--FHA; Third place--Senior Class. The highlight of the half time came when the announcement was made to the crowd who the Homecoming Queen was. The crowning of Miss Marguerite Talia- ferro as Homecoming Queen for 1966-1967 then took place. On Saturday night the weekend of the celebration ended with the Homecoming Ball. The gym was gaily decorated and complete with sailboat, thatched hut, and scenery of tropical islands and sea water to carry the theme out, The Return of the Natives. The Beachnuts of Virg inia Beach provided the music. 8 with more and better floats The SCA float, being worked on Friday noon to get it ready for the parade, was entitled Spirit Come Alive.

Carolyn Downer and Marguerite Taliaferro por- trayed two aged ladies suspicious of a young visitor, Larry Lennon, who claims to be their nephew. Their performance captured a Superior rating at the District Festival and therefore the cast was able to present the play in Charlottes- ville. Crazy !

Officers and Committee Chairmen for the 1966-67 Stu- dent Cooperative Association met early in August to set up yearly objectives and plan a kick-off assembly program for the beginning of the school session. At this meeting a motto of Spirit Come Alive was adopted, and the assembly was presented in cooperation with the cheerleaders. The next big project was the annual Homecoming. A large canvas banner advertising the Homecoming was pur- chased and hung across the highway. At the White Christmas Program students contributed gifts and money for needy families in the area. This year for the first time a primary was held before the regular election to select two candidates to run for each of- fice. The primary resulted in a three-way tie for the office of Vice-president, and a run-off election was held. The Executive Committee and several Student Council members undertook the project of revising the entire SCA Constitution. The new Constitution was voted on and passed in a special assembly. Turnabout Day was held the week preceeding the in- stallation of the new officers. 16 Leroy Hayden registers with Peggy Kriete and Linda Hicks to vote in the SC A pri- mary election, and awaits his ballot from Larry Lennon.

Chosen by a faculty committee, the outstanding Juniors were installed in this Society on the basis of their character, scholarship, leadership, and service. Marguerite Taliaferro and Mickey Taylor stand in tense silence as the new members receive their pins. President Peggy Kriete presents to the student body the general purposes and functions of the Society.

Le Cercle Francais, as may be inferred, is a French Club. Tlris organization is limited to the second and third year students of French. Active in many facets of school and social activities, Le Cercle Francais visited Mrs. Lamb, of Warsaw, and sang French Christmas carols to her. Also, Monsieur Robert Berton of Lyons, France, a teacher of English in France, visited the T. H. S. French department and said it was Bon et Excellent. Larry Rose, President of Le Cercle Francais, visited France during the summer. Often Larry Rose conveyed many of his experiences in France to the members of Le Cercle Francais. Mike Williams lights the candles that are on the table with the L ' Arbre Noel . Carolyn Overstreet and Kitty Hammond listen to tape record- ings while Mary Clanton reads French magazines. 20 President Nancy Davis reads a story to an elementary class while members Dottie Turner, Jimmy Hilton, Wright Ferry, Maltha Wachsmuth and Theresa Hilton instruct individual pupils. F.T.A. sells toothbrushes By selling toothbrushes the F. T. A. started tlreir scholarship fund for some outstanding member in the near future. Now in the second year, the membership has increased and the organization has obtained a na- tional charter. Junior and Senior members are given the privilege to spend a weekend at the college of their choice. This is done through the advisor, Mrs. J. W. Hardy, who has guided the club since its formation. As a project for the year, members assist teachers of the elementary grades. Experience such as this is valued by the members for it provides a solid founda- tion for their teaching career. Using maps as teaching aids, Isabelle Bowe, Becky Elliott, Brenda Harper, and Melanie Broaddus en- li ten students on geographical features. Judy Andrews discusses the high- lights of the day ' s news as Billy Rush Gardner and Ellen Motley add another clipping to the bul- letin board. Jennie Carpenter ex- plains a question provoked by Maureen Hayes ' pointing out global features.

Mr. Cox The Safety Patrol began the year by distributing among the homerooms rules and regulations per- taining to safety on school grounds and buses. The patrolmen strived to carry out these rules in every phase of school life. The bus patrolmen were fortu- nate to have the Lion ' s Club donate yellow plastic helmets for use when crossing the highways. In April the Safety Patrol sponsored a Driver ' s Safety Program for assembly. After a brief discussion and a film on safety habits while driving, the entire student body dispersed to Water Lane. In a specially equipped automobile, two student drivers, Linda Hicks and Larry Rose, and Trooper Jefferies demon- strated reaction and braking distance. Student help- ers measured the distances on the pavement as the student body kept account of these on small scoring cards. 24 “Warriors’ Post’’ introduces new column 1ST ROW: P. Simmons, B. J.

Taporapian staff revises yearbook layout The annual staff began work early this year as Senior portraits were taken in August. Cop- ing with problems such as lack of pictures and early deadlines, the staff members met on each Wednesday after school. Using the an- nuals of several larger schools as guides, to- gether with information gained at the State Yearbook Convention, the Taporapian Staff revised practically the whole layout of the 1966-67 annual. After many hours of hard work penning interesting captions, taking and cropping pictures, arranging and rearranging layouts, the Taporapian Staff was finally pleased with the new look of the annual. Annual Staff members look over a Freeman H. S. Annual which is considered to be one of the best in the state. Carolyn Overstreet points out to new Annual Staff members the secret of a good layout. 27 Chorus provides church programs TOP ROW: C. Lumpkin, L. Sylva, C, Davis, D. Connellee, L. Dunn, F.

During football season, the Band attended all games and supported our team with rousing marches from the sidelines. They also gave half-time per- formances at many of the games. Both Band and Chorus performed at assemblies throughout the year, giving short previews of the Christmas and Spring Concerts in school as- semblies, The Band marched in the traditional Christmas Parade and the Band and Chorus gave a Christmas concert of Christmas, religious, and popular music.

The Gymnastics Club this year was smaller in size than in previous years but it was certainly not smaller in talent. This small group of determined hi school girls was striving to do some of the things they had been exhibiting. The group was divided into four smaller groups. The modern dance group interpreted music with body movements. The floor exercise group took ordinary exercises and put them to music. The balance beam group did exercises on the balance beam which took much skill and co-ordination. These routines were put to music. Tire tumbling group performed series of rolls, dives, and pyramids. The Gymnastics Club was headed by Carolyn Downer, and Linda Hicks, and directed by Mrs. McCloskey. The girls planned two programs, one for the P. T. A. and one for assembly. 30 FIRST ROW: S.

Everyone knew it was going to be a difficult year since eight of the ten who graduated were among the regular starters. The rest of the team was young and inexperienced. The backfield and the end positions were occupied by boys from the proceeding year ' s second string, or, in the case of the quarterback and fullback, rookies in those positions. Although it was pre- dicted that the Warriors could not finish in the top three positions, under the fine leadership of the tri-captains, Woody Johnson, Ed Kirk, and Johnny Loving, and the coaches, Ashton, Dickinson, and Robertson, the Warriors were sparked on to a co-championship. More Warriors saw action this year than ever before; some playing defense, others offense, and still others on the specialty teams. Among those who saw regular action were: OFFENSIVELY Backfield--Tommy Blackwell, Ed Kirk, Bobby Hammond, Mike Peel, and help from Jimmie Guess, Brian Parker, James Loving, and Mike Williams. Up front--Jimmie Guess, Johnny Loving, Bobby Ham- mond, Gouldin Tignor, Woody Johnson, Bobby Durham, Mike Rutledge, Carl Thompson, Larry Rose, and Tommy Chinault. DEFENSIVELY (only)-- ' ommy Atkins, Wayne Medlin, Glen Ransome, Scott Charnock, and Bobby Delano. The Warriors, who were facing an uncertain season in August, turned it into the fifth consecutive winning season since 1962. The ledger for ' 66 showed a 5-4 record with a win picked up free; this added up to a 6-3 over all and 5-1 in district play, giving the Warriors a tie for first place with Northumberland. In their first game the Warriors, altlrough uncertain of themselves, upset Lancaster who had won over them the previous year. This was a surprise victory with a score of 22-0. The next game was a bad one for the War- riors who lost to King George. Through fate, however, they picked up the game with a forfeit. The next game was a hard one and cost plenty, and Northumberland pulled it off 13-6. New Kent, a non-district team, lost, 7-0, as did a big rival, Rappahannock, 27-0. The next game went to Middlesex, also a non-district game, 26-6. The Warriors came back with a 13-0 victory over Caroline and the following week Washington Lee fell to the Warriors 12-0. The last game, althou non-district, was disappointing for West Point took it 25-7, The old saying A good defense is the best offense can be seen clearly in the Warriors ' record, since all of the Warriors ' victories were shut-outs. It is generally agreed by all, including both players and coaches, that the winning season for the Warriors was due to the teamwork and unity with which the team played. 32 SCORES ihannock Opponents 22 Lancaster 0 1 King George 0 6 Northumb erl and 13 7 New Kent 0 27 Rappahannock 0 6 Middlesex 26 13 Caroline 0 12 Washington Lee 0 7 West Point 25 Tri-Captains--J.

Riding on their float, first string Tommy Atkins, Jimmie Guess, and Johnny Loving discuss tire cer- tainty of a victory in the coming homecoming football game. Coaches: Robertson and Ashton, Varsity, and Cox, Junior Varsity, all feel drat tins year was one of tlie best ever. 35 Co-captains Larry Rose and Scott Charnock led the Warriors in scoring and fouling, respectively. Warriors enter district tournament With only five players returning from last year ' s squad, two of whom were lettermen, the Warriors had to build a team practically from scratch. From the beginning it was obvious that the Warriors ' lack of experience was going to be a drawback in close games. This showed up greatly in their first game against C. T. Smith, which was lost by one point in an overtime. With this against them, the Warriors finished the regular season with only three wins, gaining experi- ence and playing good ball at times. It seemed as though the Warriors couldn ' t play two good halves in the same game, but, never the less, the boys did reach the tournaments. In the tournament game, the Warriors, as they faced first place King George, had their work cut out for them. Even with one of the smallest representations of the season, the Warriors played their best and most important game. After trailing by about 19 points for over a quarter, the Warriors pulled to within 11, scoring 22 points in the third quarter, but as tension mounted and the teamwork went, so did the game. This situation ap- peared in most of the Warriors ' games, only to a- rouse questioning as to where the teamwork that made the football team go, had gone when the bas- ketball season began. Many Warriors saw action during the season, as there was no starting five. Under the leadership of the captains, Scott and Larry, the new team mem- bers with no game practice did exceedingly well. Excessive fouling and wide margins also provided a chance for the newcomers to prove themselves good athletes and good sports.

Although the Tappahannock girls man- aged to overtake their opponents in only three of their nine scheduled games, the noticeable cooperation, work, and genuine interest that the girls displayed meant more to the team than a lengthy string of suc- cesses. The girls worked together, not in title roles supported by other minor stars, but as a total unit; no one girl stood out far above the team. The first string forwards were Hannah Nettles, Martha Wachsmuth, Jennie Car- penter, and Mary Golden. These girls were strongly supported by Mary Rathje, Peggy Greggs, Beulah Loving, and Glenda Wil- kerson. Leading the defensive action were Bonnie Eiliott, Judy Andrews, and Sara Parrish. These were well aided by Sandra Luttrell, Beth Durham, Margaret Harmon, and Becky Elliott. The team could not have functioned without the guidance of its coach, Mrs. McCloskey, the leadership of the Co- captains, Bonnie Elliott and Hannah Net- tles, the helpfulness of the two managers, Nancy Davis and Frances Jones, and the accuracy of the scorekeeper, Theresa Hilton. Together, these people formed the T. H. S. Girls ' Basketball Team, one that sought unified cooperation, effort, and sportsmanship, as well as action and victory. 38 despite a lack of needed experience cheerleaders join excited Warrior team in a long-awaited victory celebra- tion at Rappahan- nock.

Boys place second while With only one senior on the team, an all -rookie pitching staff, and an overall inexperienced team, the Warriors were looking forward to the season witii some uncertainty. This feeling soon left the team as 35 runs came in for tire Warriors to their opponents ' 4 in the first three games. The season opened with C. T. Smith, who went down 15-3. The next to try against the Warriors was rival Rappahannock who fell 10-1. To complete the 35 run, 3 game series, was Northumberland who went down 10-0. The next game wasn ' t as easily taken as the Warriors seemed to cool off somewhat and dropped the first game of a double-header with Lancaster 2-5 but came back to take the second game 7-0. The next game was also a disappointment as Washington and Lee, the team to beat for first honors, took it 3-6. The next game with Northumberland was a tight one but the Warriors came out on top 5-4. The last game against Rappahan- nock saw the Warriors back in style as tlrey took it 6-3. With captains Woody Johnson and Johnny Loving, the Warriors were lead to a winning season of 6 wins and 2 losses and a 2nd place in the district. Witlr tire young team this year, the Warriors should be better than ever next year.

This number was the largest m the team ' s history. However, after intense competition and a few bad grades, the team was cut to a mere eighteen, leaving two for each position. With only four of last year ' s starting players still on the team, the remainder of the first string was filled by team members without previous playing experience. Back from last year ' s squad were Co-captains Margaret Harmon and Phyllis Davis at short- stop and pitcher respectively; Sara Parrish, right-field; Linda Hicks, left-field. Last year ' s members without experience were Sandra Luttrell, catcher; and Theresa Hilton at first base. The new members were Jane Brooks, second base; Linda Crowe, third base; and Peggy Greggs, center-field. Another newcomer, Jose- phine Layne, saw some playing action as did an old member, Dorothy Hammond. V7ith the 1966 record hovering on everyone ' s mind, the team really made an all-out effort. Hopes rose and fell in many games, but the highlight of the year was the doubleheader against Lancaster in which the team squeaked by the Devils 6-5 in the first game and won the second by a very unusual forfeit. 41 Track team clinches two seconds in state District Winners: First Place Shot J.

In the heat of early October, the THS track girls could be seen lazily jogging around the field, playfully chasing each other over hurdles, and playing dodgeball with the shot. However, as the day of the district track meet grew nearer, an intense air of importance and self-discipline fell over the team, each girl working her hardest to win. For the girls had without effort captured the district title ever since there was even a place in district competition for girls ' track, and to surrender such a title would be unthinkable. With only one practice meet with Rappahannock, the girls had no idea of the kind of competition they would be facing. But as usual, Tappahannock managed to pull through--with six out of nine first places. Judy Andrews and Mary Rathje, co-captains, each brought in fifteen points, with Margaret Harmon placing fourth in the shot put event, new to the girls in 1966. Results of the meet were as follows: 880 Relay team of Andrews, Moody, Pollard, and Rathje took first; Hurdles--Andrews, first and Wilkerson, second; High Jump--Andrews, first and Hammond, fourth; Broad Jump--Rathje, first and Pollard, third; 220- -Pollard, third and Moody, fourth; 60 yd. dash — Lane, first and Golden, second; Shot put--Harmon, fourth; 100 yd. dash--Rathje, first and Golden, second.

Al- though the cheerleaders were unable to attend cheering camp this year, they added several new cheers to their list after at- tending an all-day rally in Richmond. At the beginning of the school year, the cheerleaders, in co-operation with the S. C. A. , sponsored a pep assembly to kick off the new term. Using as a theme the new motto of the S. C. A. , SPIRIT COME ALIVE, the cheerleaders highlighted the assembly with a skit made up by several of the squad members. Pep, enthusiasm, and spirit was pro- vided during each game even thou the Warriors were not always victorious. In the air or on the ground, the Warrior ' s team ' s the best around.

J.V. team gains experience This year ' s Junior- Varsity Basketball team was comprised of eighth, ninth, and tenth graders. Being a team of many new faces, the squad strived to gain experience which it lacked. The starting lineup varied with Keith Carpenter, Dicky Mabie, Ronnie Rose, Dennis Smith, and Bill Watts playing guards and center and Steve Daniels, Junior Martin and Peter Ware sharing the positions of forwards. The remaining team- mates served as morale boosters during th e slow season. The boys practiced and ran all season under the fine lead- ership of Mr. Cox. Ronnie Rose leaps into the air for jumpball.

The school board, composed of representatives elected from each district of the county, is a most important body. Its main purpose is to provide the county with a more efficient school system. To carry out this objective, the board members thoughtfully work out a school budget, disperse funds for the buildings and furnishings, and hire and dismiss teachers on the superintendent ' s recommendation. The Essex County School Board plays a major role in the organization and opera- tion of Tappahannock High School. Superintendent Eldon W.

September, 1966, brought to the members of the Class of ' 67 a new prestige— -they had finally gained the status of being Se- niors, The year was filled with many and varied projects, and most were aimed at making money for the New York trip. At the first football game, and all of the following home games, the class operated a concession stand which netted large sums of money. With October came Homecoming, and with Homecoming came a Senior float which won third place in the annual parade. Early in the school year, each Senior had plans and decisions to make as to what he intended to do following his graduation from high school. Class members sent applications to schools from Mississippi to Maryland, including universities, colleges, nursing, business, and technical schools. In December and Janu- ary, many gave their last try to College Boards. In November, the Senior girls tried their skills at football, as they took on the Sophomores in a powder puff game. Also, the Seniors contracted the Lamplighters to play at a casual dance. In the spring, the Seniors matched the Jaycees in a basketball game and came out on top by a narrow two point margin. How- ever, in a rematch the Jaycees took the game. The Jr. -Sr. Banquet was well attended by the Seniors, who reacted both favorably and unfavorably to their gifts. The Prom, held in mid-April, featured the Fugitives. With the united effort to enlarge the treasury, the Seniors were able to finance the New York trip.
