STUDENT COUNCIL When the 1952-53 Student Council first met on September 24, the new presiding officers were Ed Brown, President; Jim Leutze, 1st Vice President; Mary Rue Dallas, 3rd Vice President; Bill Walston, Secretary- Treasurer; and Judy White, who transferred to another school and was later replaced by Lee Levering as 2nd Vice President. Under these able leaders, the Council set up a monitor system and gave many enjoyable assemblies and dances. The concession stand, oper¬ ated at football games, provided funds to carry out numerous other projects, such as completion of the furnishing of the Teachers ' Room, dark curtains for the movie room, payment of two assemblies, financial aid to the Wi- Hi News , a token contribution to the Crusade for Freedom, cabinets for the choir robes, and an information radio program presented to demonstrate What the Student Council Means to Me The Council also tried to start bus service from a rural area to football games, but the need was not sufficient to make it worthwhile. They formed a welcoming committee for the new 8th graders at the beginning of the year, and they served as monitors for the Back to School program of the P.T.A. The Council ' s closing activi¬ ties included a Student Council Ban¬ quet and campaigns for the election of next year ' s officers. In addition to its work in Wi-Hi, the Student Council was represented in the Lower Eastern Shore Student Council, the State Student Council Or¬ ganization, and is a member of the National Student Council. Now, looking back over the past year ' s work, the Council can point with pride to its accomplishments. ’’Excuse me . . . sorry . . . pardon me . . ’’Will the secretary read the minutes?” % Student Council Officers FIRST ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Mary Rue Dallas, 3rd Leutze, 1st Vice President; Bill Walston, Secretary- Vice President; Lee Levering, 2nd Vice President; Ed Treasurer.

The Library Assistants ' Club is a service organization which meets every other Wednesday. Its more than thirty members donate their services before school, during study halls, and after school. To serve our 1200 students efficiently would be impossible without the help of these student assistant librarians. Duties are many and varied. Some of these are: charging out material, finding and filing cards for books, shelving books, assisting students to find reference and recreational books, processing new books through the many steps before checking them out, pre¬ paring magazines for the racks, mending oldbooks, arranging exhibits, straighten¬ ing shelves, dusting, making and de¬ livering overdue notices, and collecting fines. Extra activities of the Club include an annual picnic or party and an assembly program written and directed by Club members. That ' ll be six cents, please. 9 JUNIOR RED CROSS The first of a series of Junior Red Cross meetings for the year was brought to order by our faculty advisor, Miss Roe. On October 28, 1952, we organized our group and chose the following officers: Kay Reed, President; Rosalee Lynch, Vice President; Andrea Wein, Two more drops in the bucket. Secretary; and Jean Morris, Treasurer. During the year we have had the annual Red Cross Drive in which we encouraged home¬ rooms to collect money for the less fortunate and needy fami¬ lies. For our project this year, we made bridge tallies and score pads to send to the Bolling Air Force Base. Don’t think it is all work and no play --at the end of the year we had a picnic as a re¬ ward for our interest and help in making the Club a success¬ ful one.

In 1950-51, the charter members, now seniors, did not want to leave the club; so, the constitution was amended to permit seniors as well as juniors to be members. In 1951-52, we made our debut into the social world by promoting a suc¬ cessful dance. Now, in 1952-53, we feel that we have begun the next stage of our de¬ velopment. From a small number, we have grown to a membership of forty- seven. Plans are being considered for making two divisions of the club to stimulate even more interest in pro¬ moting public debates. It is likely that we can affiliate with a national debating organization in the near future. The officers for this year were: Danny Wagner, President; Carolyn Carey, Vice President; Lee Levering, Recording Secretary; Dot Richards, Corresponding Secretary; Jim Leutze, Treasurer; Patsy Elliot, Program Chairman; Mary Mac Dick, Historian; and Bill Smith, Public Relations. The major topic for debate this year was: Resolved: That the Atlantic Pact na¬ tions should form a federal union. Maybe, but I think ... FIRST ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT; Carolyn Carey.

Wi-Hi ' s F.F.A. has a short history, but the 1952-53 chapter has made fine progress. The most important act of the chapter was the sponsoring of an annual spring Father and Son Banquet. At this banquet, awards were given. The two most important awards are the Scholastic Improvement Award, given ”... as he picked up his hammer and saw.” for progress in scholarship, and the Star Chapter Farmer Award, given to the boy with a Chapter Farmer Degree who has been most outstanding in four years of agriculture. The F.F.A. has hatched pheasant eggs, raised and bred pigs, and this year they built and equipped a chicken house. The chickens were either sold or were entered in the Junior Chicken of Tomorrow Contest. Of four contests entered each year, the F.F.A. has had at least one winner per year. Two members represented Maryland in the National Vegetable Judging Contest in New York. Also, representatives are sent annually to the State Con¬ vention. This year a Club member attended the National Convention in Kansas City. Other projects this year included Christmas and Thanksgiving baskets for a needy family outside Salisbury, a radio panel discussion, continuation of the pig ring, and participation in the Farm and Home Show. 12 FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA FIRST ROW, LEFT - RIGHT: Joanne Parsons, Mary Frances Ratcliffe, Elizabeth Tull, Historian; Joanne Brown, Treasurer; Shirley Bradley, President; Barbara Malone, Secretary; Mary Evelyn Doepp,Vice President; Lois Trader, Barbara Ruark.

The Future Homemakers of America was organized in Wicomico High School in February, 1950. Since that time member¬ ship has increased to fifty girls who are interested in home economics and who have completed at least eighth grade. This club belongs to a state and national association, whose purpose is to acquaint girls with home economics and make it a valuable part of everyday life. F.H.A. colors are red for courage and determination and white for purity. The flower is the red rose, which is a symbol of good health. Most important is the motto Toward New Horizons, which signifies learning to live better today so that our lives and the lives of others may be better tomor¬ row. F.H.A. activities have included: serving at school banquets, being hostess to all chap¬ ters in our region at the spring business meeting, and planning and serving the annual May Day Tea. Plans for this year also in¬ cluded: filling a Christmas basket for a needy family, holding a Christ¬ mas party, serving as co-hostesses to annual regional and state meetings, sponsoring a Mothe r - Daughter Banquet, and completing work toward Junior and Chapter Homemaker degrees of achievement. --push this and turn that- 13 FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA FIRST ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Ida Hove.

The members in¬ vestigate the advantages of making teaching a career and find specific in¬ formation about the opportunities in the various fields of education. One of the highlights of the year was a trip to Pemberton School where the club observed the modern elementary school in session. The group benefited from another interesting trip to State Teachers College where they noted the methods of instruction. Some of the other events during the year included installation of officers; theF.T.A. assembly, at which Mr. Wil¬ lis H. White, State Supervisor of High Schools, was guest speaker; an infor¬ mal tea given by the sponsor; several guest speakers during the Wednesday morning club meetings who discussed the problems, opportunities , and re¬ quirements of teaching; and represen¬ tation of the club at the Maryland F. T.

The Future Nurses of America Club was started in the fall of 1951 under the direction of Miss Hester Farlow, with Mrs. Samuel Layfield as Nurse Sponsor. At the first meeting last fall, Marie Dixon was elected President; Joyce Matthews, Vice President; Ann Lee White 7 Treasurer; and Jean Small, Sec¬ retary. It was decided that the members had to have twenty-five points in order to receive their pins. A committee made a list of the things they could do, includ¬ ing club work, interviews, visits to places connected with nursing, and ob¬ servations over at the hospital. At Thanksgiving and Christmas the girls sent baskets of food and clothing to two needy families, and they acquired a wheelchair for the school from the Sal¬ vation Army. After January 1, five girls went to see Mrs. Layfield about their sister nurses. A ,, sister M nurse is usually a Scalpel, please . . . first year student at the hospital who is assigned to one of the girls. Near the end of the year, a tea was given by the girls in honor of their sisters . The last activity of the year was a banquet at which all of the girls who had earned enough points were given their pins. These pins were donated by the Junior Board Auxiliary. 15 PROJECTIONISTS’ CLUB The Projectionists Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Dalton Howard, is in charge of the audio-visual equipment of the school. Students from this group are trained to operate opaque projectors and projectors for motion pictures, film strips, and slides. They install the public ad¬ dress system for the auditorium activities and for football and other outdoor games. Club members perform a real service to the faculty by relieving teachers of machine operation during periods of audio-visual instruction. The Club was an out-growth of a general science class activity in 1948. A group of boys became interested in the use and operation of the varied equipment of the school. Their interest and sub¬ sequent skill of operation in handling audio¬ visual aids has filled a real need in our school. The 1952-53 officers of the steadily- increasing club were George Hotton, President; Robert Sturgis, Secretary.

During the year the group photo¬ graphed such activities as athletic teams and events, play and operetta casts, clubs, homerooms. Senior func¬ tions, May Day, and pictures for the school newspaper.

BANQUET Senior Class President, Max Franks, replies to the Toast to the Seniors. BACCALAUREATE The sermon to the graduates was given by The Reverend E. Lansing Bennett, pastor of Sal¬ isbury ' s Presbyterian Church, on Sunday even¬ ing, May 31, in the high school auditorium. His sermon, The Rules of the Game , was more like an informal chat, and his vivid illus¬ trations drove home his points better than any pounding of the pulpit. He stated the four pri¬ mary rules -- courage, tolerance, sportsman¬ ship, and perseverance -- and illustrated each with striking examples taken from different parts of the sports world. After the concluding hymn and the benedic¬ tion, the graduates marched out to the familiar strains of Pomp and Circumstance . The Reverend E. Lansing Bennett The 1953 Commencement Exer¬ cises also took place in the high school auditorium, on the evening of June 4. The Reverend Arthur M. Doepp gave the invocation and benediction, and the guest speaker was Dr. Ken¬ neth R. Walker, professor of history atGoucher College in Baltimore. His address, The Quest For Security , emphasized the insecurities of the world that today ' s graduates enter. He stated that complete security was an illusion, that any real security must be found within one ' s self. After the benediction, members of the graduating class sang their Alma Mater, and to Verdi ' s Triumphal March , they took their final steps out of Wicomico High School and into the world.

This is the first time a Wi-Hi team has ac¬ complished this feat in years. The team record was 6 wins and 2 losses. Both losses were to a well- balanced Pocomoke team. The last game was played under Worcester scor¬ ing rules, two points for a scrimmage shot and one point for a penalty shot. By Wicomico scoring it was a tie. Wi-Hi outscored the opposition 28 to 7, with Hebron the only Wicomico County team scoring against them. Seniors playing their last game in a Wi-Hi uniform were: Donald White, Donald Horner, David McDaniel, Lawrence Hedges, Lee Ryan, James Baker, and Monroe Messick. Wi-Hi scoring went as follows: D.

The 1952 football season ended with the Wi-Hi Indians showing a record of 7 wins, 1 tie, and 0 losses -- the first undefeated team in 14 years. Two good assistant coaches, George Eichnor (back field) and Joe Restic (ends) helped Coach Charles Berry (interior line). Wi-Hi started off right by beating Seaford 30-6, and hit their only snag in the second game, against Laurel, who held Wi-Hi to a 6-6 tie. Wi-Hi scored in the third period on a line plunge by Lee Levering. Laurel ' s Miller tied the score in the final quar te r. Wi-Hi beat Charlotte Hall 25-0 on a muddy field, defeated Milford 24-0 with Danny Wagner making two touchdowns, and romped to an easy 44-0 over Dover. Scoring once in the first quarter and three times in the second, Wi- Hi held Westminster to two touch¬ downs, beating them 25-13. Bel Air wasn ' t so easy. Wi-Hi ' s Chuck Smith scored in the first quarter, but Bel Air struck back, pulling ahead 7-6 early in the second quarter. Smith scored again during the first half making it 13-7. Bel Air tied early in the third quarter, but Wi-Hi bounced back, Smith going 70 yards to paydirt on an inside re¬ verse. The Indians ended the season with a joyous conquest of Cambridge 60-12 on Thanksgiving Day. COACHES: Joe Restic, Charles Berry, George Eichnor.

Bob Hardiman The Wi-Hi Indians ended another successful season with an overall rec¬ ord of 16 wins and 5 losses. Under the very capable coaching of William Con¬ rad, the Indians went to the state semi¬ finals by downing Cambridge 68 to 49. Alleghany High proved too tough for Wi-Hi and won 62 to 46. The Indians played without the service of Bob Har¬ diman in this game, and many believe that if he had played Wi-Hi would have won. Wearing Wi-Hi togs for the last time were Bob Hardiman, Jack Bar¬ nett, Donald Long, Jim Baker. Dick Niblett, a junior, led the scoring with 3 90 points followed by Bob Hardiman with 314; The Indians outscored the opposition 1,215 to 843. Highlights of the season were the victo¬ ries over Cambridge, 52 to 46 and 68 to 49, and over Westmins¬ ter, 56 to 43. Bob Hardiman, Wi-Hi ! s high scoring center, set two scoring records within four days. He broke the old high scoring record for one game of 29 when he dumped in 31 points against Seaford. Four nights later, against Crisfield, he set the present high scor¬ ing record of 36 points in one game. Although four of the starting five players graduate this year, the Indians should have a good team next year, and we wish them the best of luck and hope they do what no other Wi-Hi team has done: win the State Class A Championship. Congratulations to Coach Conrad for his fine showing as a freshman coach and may he keep up his good work. 38 Dot Richards Coached by Mary Morling Troy, the girls basketball team had a season Doris Calcott record of one win, eight losses, and one tie. Two games were played with each of the following teams: Mardela, Ocean City, Easton, Cambridge, and Laurel. The lone victory was at the expense of Ocean City, the seashore rivals. Jackie Moore, the team Captain, led the scoring parade with 150 points, followed by Virginia Tull, 45; Betty. Malle.ry, 41; Doris Calcott, 33; and Tillie Worthington, 10. Not to be forgotten were the guards, the unsung heroines. Outstanding de¬ fensive plays by them made the scor¬ ing possible for their teammates. The managers were Lorena Thomas, Barbara Crosse, and Carolie Valliant.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY The Lineup On January 21 and 22, 1953, the Junior Class pre¬ sented ’’You Can ' t Take It With You”, a hilarious comedy telling of life with Martin Vanderhoff (J. H. Williams) and ’’family”, consisting of his daughter PenelopeSycamore(Liz Ellis), her husband Paul (Jack Denson), his granddaughter Alice(Joan Lewis), another granddaughter Effie (Andrea Wein), Effie ' s husband Ed.(Ed Parsons), Mr. De Pinna, a friend, (Buddy Emer¬ son), the colored maidReba(Kay Reed), and her boy¬ friend Donald (Lee Schilling). The ’’peaceful” family receives many interruptions in the form of Boris Kalenkov, a Russian friend (Bill Livingston), the Grand Duchess Olga Katrina (Carol Trader), Alice ' s boyfriend Tony Kirby( Dayton Furniss) his mother (Yvonne Lewis), his father (Harry Alex¬ ander), Gay Wellington, a drunken actress (Mary Rue Dallas), Henderson, an income tax collector (Gayle Dorman), and three men from the F. B. I., (Jerry Davis, Lee Gordy, and Jim Coffinberger). An Awkward Silence - V CLASS HISTORY In the year 1948 a small (260) group of wide-eyed, expectant young¬ sters entered the portals of Wicomico High School. This was the beginning of a whole new phase of life for us. It was discouraging and confusing at times, but we soon became accustom¬ ed to it. Activities began to be more numerous toward the end of the year. We entered school in September, 1949, with a new outlook on life, My, weren’t we the big wheels! This year we began to become more a part of school. We participated in school teams, clubs, had more as¬ semblies, and attended Student Council meetings. Most of all we were proud to be invited to dances held by up¬ perclassmen. Again we were re¬ presented in May Day and this year for the first time we elected a re¬ presentative to the Winter Carnival. At the end of the year our number had decreased to 240. Our sophomore year seemed to be the time when most of us adjusted ourselves to the routines of our schedules. We began thinking about our futures -- just what we would like to do after graduation. We were represented in offices in the Student Council, we sang in the operetta, had a sweater hop, and began making our own way. This year, instead of decreasing in number, we increased to 255. Upperclassmen at last! Probably the biggest thrill of this year was the election of class officers, for the first time in our history. As President we elected Billy Wyatt; Vice President was Edward Brown; for Treasurer we chose Frances Mumford, and Dorothy Richards served as Secretary. We had a wonderful Junior Dance, and presented n My Sister Eileen as our Junior Class play. It wasn ' t until we attended the Junior-Senior Banquet that we realized it would soon be our turn to fill the long- sought-for position of seniors. We realized, too, that we would miss our predecessors more than we had thought we would. At this point our number was 203. Seniors! All 173 of us! We couldn t believe it. It was true, we were monitors, and some of the boys and girls in our class were now being recognized for their athletic and scholastic ability. Even when we got our class rings it was still hard to believe ! Ida Hove proved a very capable Wi-Hi News Editor. Then came elections for class officers. Max Franks was chosen President; Danny Wagner, Vice President; Frances Mumford, Secretary; Marie Dixon, Treasurer, and Pat Sullivan, Historian. Barbara Stockman was chosen to the all-important position of Yearbook Editor, with Mary Mac Dick as As¬ sistant Editor. Student Council President was Edward Brown and Vice President, Jim Leutze. We elected Shirley Grant Winter Car¬ nival Queen. We took our annual Annapolis trip (in driving rain!), had our May Day festival, presented Stage Door as our Senior Class play, and that night of nights -- the Senior Prom. There was the Junior-Senior Banquet, with us on the other side now; Bac¬ calaureate Services, and finally the exalted moment of Commencement. We had finally completed our first big step toward building our future.

We couldn’t have done it our¬ selves and our deepest thanks and ad¬ miration go to Mrs. Charles Hemming, our advisor, who was as green as we were at the beginning of the year. Fig¬ uring equally in our success are Mr. Howard, who took hundreds of pictures for us and helped us out of a few tight spots -- Miss Hester Farlow ' s Sales¬ manship Class for helping us with our advertising -- quite a few unsung heroes of the senior class for helping out with necessary odd jobs -- and last but by no means least, the advertisers who enabled us to carry the Tom - Tom s tradition one step further. To these goes our eternal gratitude, and to the staff of next year’s Tom-Tom -- our wishes fo r the best of luck.
