The public school has been a part of Virginia history since early state ' hood and since the title of the book is The Virginian, the obvious thing as it appeared to the editors was to stress the culture and back ' ground of their illustrious state. The students of today should be con ' scious of their patriotic duty to community, state, and nation for which their ancestors have paid not only with material possessions but with blood and life itself. It was not only Eastern but also Southwestern Virginia which led in the formation of those principles of free and democratic government. THEME t T WAS at Fort Chiswell that the freemen met and drew up a decla- ration of independence a year before the famous Declaration was made. Also, the men from the headwaters of the Holston and the Bristol vicinity defeated the British at Kings Mountain, and Col. Isaac Shelby led these same patriots to defeat the Indians in the Ohio Valley who were marauding the whole frontier. The culture, social background, wisdom, patriotism, and wealth of the Colonial period is not only to be proud of, but also to be sought; therefore the editors have carried out a Colonial theme and design in WE ACKNOWLEDGE HE Annual Staff expresses deep appreciation to all those who have given of their time, energy, and encouragement to the reali2;ation of this twenty second volume of The Virginian. To the spon- sors — Miss Hillman, Miss Shoun, and Mr. Smalling — we are in- debted for their untiring efforts and endless enthusiasm in financing and managing this enterprise. We are grateful to Mr. Shelburne, who has granted our never-ending requests, and to the faculty for their kind co- operation in our many undertakings, and to Miss Aaron for the use of the library. We sincerely thank all pupils who secured ads, the com- mercial department, the photographers — Mr. Hutcheson of Hutcheson’s Studio and to Mr. McIlwaine of Kelly and Green — and Mr. Blair Preston of the King Printing Company for their suggestions and efforts in helping make The Virginian a success.

We stood on that bottom step green, gangling, and duly humbled, but determined not to let anyone know how little we actually felt. The sophomores, especially, seemed so superior. They appeared to forget that we would soon be sophomores even wiser than they. Awed by the realization that at last we had become important enough for a class all our own, early in the fall of ’36 we took steps to complete our organization. We made a heroic beginning in electing William Charles as president to guide us through that first year of high school bewilderment. That year was also the last one for our superintendent, Mr. Roy Bowers, and we regretfully saw him leave the school. The fall of 1937 found the Class of ’40 a step higher in the educational cycle — and no doubt vastly higher in the world’s estimation. However, our new-found dignity soon began to wear off as schedules pinched down heavily on us. The end of the sophomore year found us saddened by the thoughts of losing our principal, Mr. “Jimmy” Denton. Nevertheless, aided by Bill Henry, president, the Class of 1940 was eased over the rise of the second high school term and on another. Glory be, we were juniors! To start the year with a bang, we selected our class pin and ring. School dances and weekly broadcasts kept us stepping. Many members of our class distinguished themselves by helping to initiate student government and the diversified occupations program in our school. Aided by our interested young principal, Mr. Thomas Shelburne, and Bill Henry, president for a second time, we climbed over the third step, leaving behind a year which the coming one would find difficult to surpass. At last here we are on the very top step — our senior year! Knowing full well that Bill Henry had been the most able president ever, we again chose him to lead us. During the football season we have loyally supported our team, even though it was allowed only one league game. Also worthy of mention, we are leaving V. H. S. as the last class to graduate on sixteen units, since the next will have to acquire eighteen. Page 22 CLASS HISTORY • • As we look back over the tour sessions behind us, we think that indeed we shall never have four other years quite as pertect. We begin to think a little more seriously ot ourselves. What positions are we going to fill? What are we going to make of ourselves? The year draws to a close with the usual excitement: cramming for exams, the fun and heartaches of class night, the sober happiness of Baccalaureate, and finally the long anticipated thrill of graduation. As we leave Virginia High, filled with happy memories, we reali2,e that this is not the ending of our history. We shall continue it as each of us steps out to fill a useful place in the world.

VIRGf lim high SCnOOL LIBRARY Coach Baker called the football squad for practice September 1, with some sixty boys responding. There were brilliant prospects for a team, but due to an unfortunate incident in the spring of 1939, Virginia High had no schedule. Our school had been suspended from the Virginia Literary and Athletic League for having spring practice. It was then that Coach Baker arranged a schedule consisting of college freshmen and Class C high school teams. However, we had cause for rejoicing before the year closed, when it was decided that Virginia High would be reinstated in order that the traditional VirginLuTennessee series would not be broken. ( John Matheny Co ' Captain VIRGINIA BEARCATS Junior Johnson John Hawthorne Bud Walling Nile Dettor Joe Eades On September 23, Virginia High battled a slightly heavier Emory Frosh team to a scoreless tie on Emory’s home field in a game that was made up of mostly defensive football. The only spectacular run of the game was when Junior Johnson picked up a fumble and dashed 45 yards to the goal. The ball was brought back and the play was nullified for offsides. The tie was to be played off at a later date. In the next game on September 29 the Virginia Bearcats came back from a scoreless tie with Emory Frosh to defeat Glade Spring 6 to 0. Fred Hayes, driving fullback for the Orange, was the main factor in the Bearcat victory. The Virginia Bearcats swamped the Tennessee Teachers Frosh 13 to 0 on October 5. The game was one of the finest offensive games the crowd witnessed in the Municipal Stadium this year. Fred Hayes, carrying the mail for the Bearcats, helped in his usual fine way. The blocking of Bill Smith and Roy Kirk behind the line was outstanding. Fred Hayes Roy Kirk Page 50 AND WHAT THEY DID The second game with the Emory and Henry “Rats” was played on October 14. The training of Emory Frosh was too much for the undefeated Bearcats who went down before them 32 to 0. The hard ' fighting Virginians did not give up until the final whistle. Howard White, a former Virginia High player, was outstanding for the winners. The Virginia Bearcats hung up another victory October 20 by defeating the Milligan College Frosh 7 to 0 at the Municipal Stadium. The touchdown came on the opening kick ' Off - Milligan kicking to Virginia — the ball was reversed to Junior Johnson who sprinted 85 yards for the winning score. On November 2 the Bearcats took the St. Charles eleven for a 26 to 0 ride. The game was filled with long runs and fine defensive work. Scoring for the Bearcats were Kirk, Walling, Goode, and Matheny. Walling converted the two extra points. Virginia High was swept off her feet November 10 by a rugged and aggressive team from Fleming, Kentucky, by a score of 34 to 0.

The annual game between Virginia High and Tennessee High was laid to rest on November 17 in the school history as a Tennessee victory, by a score of 24-7, but the loyal Bearcat supporters were pleased with the fine spirit that the members of the team displayed. Virginia had the first break of the game when they recovered a Viking fumble and marched to the Tennessee’s 15 ' yard line. The Vikings put up a stone wall and the Virginians lost the ball on downs. At the half, the Tennesseeans were leading 12 to 0. In the second half Bill Duncan faded back of his line and heaved a long pass to Junior Johnson in the end gone for the only Virginia score of the game. The teams were very well balanced and clean sportsmanship was the keynote of the game. All-city honors went to four Bearcat players: Jack Lee, guard; Fred Hayes, fullback; Junior Johnson, end; and Bud Walling, halfback. Page 52 iin, BASKET-BALL SQUAD First Row: Shavis, Manager; R.

Many lovely girls took part in the contest. A program of music and dancing was enjoyed by the large audience; the accompanist for this occasion was Betty Bane Adair; soloist, Christine Barker; tap dancer, Donald Everett. Betty Boggs was chosen as Miss Virginia High. This is an annual contest sponsored by the Commercial Club. Two very important events took place in the evening of December 8. First, there was the muchdooked-forward-to football banquet. The P. T. A. served a delicious turkey dinner with all the trimmings. Original little paper footballs served as favors, menus, programs, and place cards. In the center of the huge table there was a miniature playing field complete with the figures of all the players, representing the annual Virginia Tennessee classic. The tiny goal posts were wrapped with the school colors of Orange and Black and Maroon and White. John Hawthorne served as toastmaster. During the last few minutes of the banquet. Coach Baker announced that John Matheny had been elected captain for 1940. The other event was a dance sponsored by the Junior and Senior classes, which took place in the Mary Street gym. It was the first dance that had been sponsored by the school this year. It was informal and a great success. This will be followed by other dances throughout the year. The Dramatic Club gave three Christmas plays on the night of December 13. They were: The Knight Before Christmas, Christmas Gift, and The Christmas Party. The patrons and pupils look forward annually to this part of the school calendar. The plays set the stage for the Christmas season. As the annual goes to press, we are looking forward to the second Junior Senior dance, the Senior play and Senior High outing in May, and the Junior Senior banquet and dance in June. — Lois Powell, Society Editor.
