Last fall, there was an added line,- Bring your Evalu- aiiue Criteria with you. Never have we seen our teachers so interested in anything that didn't apparently concern us, but very soon we found that it did concern us. They were evaluating themselves, our school and us, and after they had used the yardstick, a visiting committee of eight educators came to visit us and apply that same yardstick. The object of the whole LESLIE YOUNG PRUDENCE. SPOONER undertaking was to see if our school was offering Social Studies Librarian to us, the future citizens of Warren County, what we needed and whether we were availing ourselves of those advantages. It would seem that all of this could have been simplified, if they'd just asked-US,-the students. Of course, if each pupil had been asked, the answers would have been varied but the vast majority would have been we havel- -1 Take a deep breath, hold it, that's all, are the familiar words every year when we have our X- Ray. Mr. Payne and Mrs. Morrison arranged all of this for us. THOMAS HESLEP Mathematics ELIZABETH THOMAS ESTLE.

A COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM which is adapte to t e nee s an esires of the individual student and of the community. Six well defined curricular are offered: College Preparatory, Commercial, Home Economics, Agriculture, Distributive Education, and General Course for those students who don't want specific work. These courses meet the needs of the college bound students, and the student whose formal education will terminate on graduation. In Distributive Education, Commercial, Home Economics, and Agriculture the student has had actual supervised experience in his field before he graduates. Although his formal education ends, he has lost his feeling of inexperience and feels competent to be on-his-own. Looks like mechanical drawings is interest- ing. Maybe Bill is drawing plans for that future home? IG LEND A HELPING HAND BoyIe's Law does have its interesting side too, but why go on? Anyone can tell at a glance that these students are well-informed on the subject. lVIath Class is found even more interesting when using figures and designs. OUR FACULTY is well prepared and carefully selected to teach the courses offered. They are our friends-those who teach us. Perhaps we ought to admit that we have not always considered them so, but ultimately we nearly always come to the realization that what they do is for our own good.

Poole. l e I THE SENIOR CLASS There's a long, -'long trail a' windin' .... and a long story to add. As Freshmen, the class of '53 got off to a flying start with Julian Stoutamyer capably handling the wheel. Even then, they showed the school their way of doing things-that class presented the first Freshman Program. Tommy Teates presided through their Sophomore year and the melodrama, Bertha, the Beautiful Typewriter Girl , was a howling success. A ship crossed the stage and the Jolly Juniors presented the Variety Show, with Julian steering their course. Even the Seniors had to admit that the Prom that year topped all the rest. The Candlelight Ceremony meant one thing to them-they were Seniors and proud of it! They chose julian to lead them through their last year at Warren, and a wonderful year it was with the trips, the picnic, the class play, and the prom they were given by the Juniors. Then came graduation and from there-the future . . . There's a long, long trail a' windin'. 20 CLASS SHELBY ANDERSON CECIL ANDRICK SARAH Lou ARMSTRONG VIRGIL ATPIEY OTT BAKER SUZANNE BALDWIN JACKIE BAUGHAN ALICE BEELER SHELBY ANDERSON, the girl with the memorable chuckle, likes the boys but yearns for West Virginia . . .

During the election of l952-53 interest ran high. ln stirring campaign speeches the candidates gave definite plat- forms and the supporters for each went to work to put their favorite in office. Wlien the last returns came in, Tommy rlqeates was declared president. The first task undertaken was a revision of the handbook published in l949. An amplifier was bought for the auditorium so that the microphone would be more effective. A clean-up campaign and a courtesy campaign were planned and stressed by the council. During evaluation week the assembly program was their project. One has a feeling of alertness to and a concern for the common good on the part of the council and its sponsors, lVlrs. lVlathews and lVlr.

THE BAND Everyone appreciates a rousing march or the faint strains of a delicate melody. The Warren High Band helps satisfy the musical yearnings of the student body, while providing valuable experience for the members. Under the expert guidance of lVlr. Harry E. Parker, the band and snappy Majorettes performed between halves at all home football games, attracting the crowds with The Little Dog. They journeyed to Richmond in November, where they Ustrutted their stuff at the University of Richmond homecoming game. This trip is annually sponsored by the local Chamber of Commerce. ln May, they will march in the Apple Blossom Festival Parade in Winchester. 50 ' AND TWIRLERS KEEP US HEP MAJORETTES N. Kesler, G.

Quite versatile is this group, as can be plainly seen at the Christmas and Spring Concerts, when they play classical, novelty and popular selections. They, too, have a small group of specialists-the sextette. Their numbers are always highlights of the concerts. It would be unthinkable to mention the hand and not tl1e white foreground, eleven vivacious girls skillfully using batons.

Miss Rhodes shared the spotlight with Lorraine. The club got off to a grand start when they went to Washington to see the musical comedy, A Tree Crows in Brooklyn. Early in November, these enthusiasts went on the air to publicize National Education Week, then to the stage they went for practice, practice, practice. Never has the club been so busy as this year. They had an entry, A Serpent's Tooth, in the one act play contest, they served as host for that contest, and their three act play, Mrs Sam from Roarin' Dam, was given in Ma1'cli.

FOOTBALL The Wa1'ren County Wildcat, his growl muted by the loss of seventeen key contributors to his I95l gridiron ferocious- ness, gathered himself together on August 25th and proceeded to Wildcat Knoll to prepare for his annual quest of the District 5 Football Championship. He had never won this juicy morsel but he went to his training with sincerity. The strategists of the team Tommy Hi-slep and Ech Miers. Co-Captain Ju Stoutamyer and P. Wine take time out for a picture. P. Wine, D. Funk, A. Beeler, C. Andrick, Stoutamyer. DIME NOVEL UPSET Cn September l2th the Ram from Strasburg came to Bing Crosby Stadium to vie with the Wildcat in a District 5 encounter. The Wildcat went ahead by a 2-0 score on a blocked kick in the first quarter only to see the Ram surge back for a touchdown during the second quarter and take a 6-2 lead which it held till halftime. Soon after the second half began, the Wildcat scored making the score 8-6 in his favor. This turned out to be a short-lived lead for on the ensuing kick-off lVliller put the Ram back into the lead with a 95 yard return. The Cat roared back furiously, however, and when the contest ended the score stood VV. C. H. S. 22, Strasburg IZ. WARREN T PARTY On the following Friday the Little Giant from Waynesboro came to town and immediately went to work on our Wildcat. At halftime the score read Waynesboro 6, W. C. I-I. S. 0, but the not to be denied Wildcat clawed out in the second half to emerge the winner by a 20-6 score. COME INTO MY PARLORH For the third consecutive week on his home field the Cat engaged in a district contest. The General from Lee High School of Staunton invaded Front Royal and found the Wildcat too formidable an op- ponent. W. C. I-l. S. scored eight touchdowns in this contest but had half them nullified in the 27-0 win. Marvin Owens. Douglas Bear, Gregory cle rout' ljeler Earnest, Jimmy Johnson. THE GREEN HORNETS FELL IN ui... THEIR OWN NESTS On October 3rd our Cat ventured away from his home grounds for the first time. I-Ie met the Green I-Iornet from Wilson Memorial High School at the Hornet's own nest and continued along in his win- ning ways by a 27-0 score. HERE'S MUD IN YOUR EYE The light but fast Wildcat met his first stumbling block of the season in a non-district game the following week when the rains and the Culpeper Dragon came to town at about the same time.

WILDCAT CLAWS FOR VICTORY On October 24 the Handley Judges came to Bing Crosby Stadium for a game that was a must for each participant. Undefeated Handley could virtually assure itself of the District Cham- pionship with a win and W. C. H. S. had to win in order to stay in contention. Our very determined Wildcat was equal to the occasion and when the final whistle blew, the 7-6 score in his favor belied the sound thrashing he ad- ministered to his much heavier opponent. B. COLLINS B. FRITTS V. ATHEY D. CREWDSON L. FRYE B. IVIATHEWS TS ....- Our Wildcats making their appearance at the Roanoke game. This thrilling play brought everyone to his feet. VICTORY ! ! With but one District opponent to meet the Cat was near his coveted goal. The James Wood Colonel hosted the Wildcat on October 3l and although our Cat showed evidences of over confidence he managed to take a 30-0 decision over the hapless Colonel, to end his campaign in a tie with Handley for the District 5 Championship. , JUST ONE TD In an anticlimatical game played at Luray High School on November 7 and despite 345 yards in penalties eked out a I2-6 decision over the previously undefeated Cave Men. TAIL SPIN ! ! On November 22, the Wildcat journeyed to Roanoke, to play William Fleming High School of that city, District 6 Champion, for the Regional title. Fleming, posed by the Press as the best high school foot- ball team in the State, lived up to their notices as they pounded out a 27-0 victory over Warren County.
