North Wilkesboro, North Carolina P g TI Page Four With supply bag slung over one shoulder and camera in hand, our yearbook photographer is quite a familiar figure on the halls of Central or anywhere that harbors the potentialities of a good picture. Whether he is arranging group pictures in the library during fourth period or making ad pictures after school, he is always well supplied with two things-a ready smile and helpful suggestions. Because of his unselfish donation of time, his willingness to help, his sunny personality, and the excellent products of his photographic talent, we dedicate this the 1957 GREEN AND GOLD to you, MR. J. E. SWITZER. ADVERTISEMENTS PAGE 83 Y, From every corner of a 220-mile area students come to study crowding iovially on many buses, manning cars, walking . . Pugr' S1' r N ,X ef- Le x ,sv Q...

Page Sirtreu They reigned with all the supremacy tradi- tionally belonging to seniors and obtained with their venerable and final position at least a small measure of dignity and an equili- brium of emotion that signifies their maturing. Looking to the future with trepidation as well as eagerness and realizing that their life at Wilkes Central was nearing an end, they savored every school event lingeringly, wanting their last year to be their best.

For college-minded seniors grades took on a new importance, as they realized that they would soon be reviewed by several colleges.

SENIUHE Measurements for caps and gowns, de- bates about graduation invitation orders, and the Junior-Senior Banquet passed all too quickly, and, suddenly, subdued seniors were listening to the solemn baccalaureate sermon, and preparing for graduation cere- monies. The Night came when nervous boys and fluttery girls trying to seem dignified Page Tcwniy-Eigli! graduated finally from high school and turned eagerly to the future. In spite of all the years ahead of them, all the wonders that will inevitably unfold, they can never forget the work, the fun, the trials, the accomplishments, and the friendships these years had brought . . . I uniol-A bv new 7,liMgA may l The JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS, 1 Vannoy, Treasurerg Sarah Jane Payne. President: Linda jo Codbey, Secretaryg and Jim VVhicker, Vice-President are shown here with one of their advisors, Miss McNeill, planning that all-important event, the Junior- Scnior Banquet. The junior year was characteristically one of furious activity and projects, most of these aimed in the purposeful direction of staging a Junior-Senior Banquet that would do its planners proud. The class went through periods of depres- sion and elation concerning the frightening financial aspect of the J.-S., they came through the Crowell-Collier magazine sale, however, with flying colors, raking in a bigger profit than had any previous junior class at W. C. With their new budget of 53,'lOO, they began polling ideas for the superior that they brought off fin the springj without a hitch. Coming, as upperclassmen, under the in- fluence of the college-mindecl seniors, the previously sheltered juniors became aware of job and college requirements, the fact that they, too, would soon be shoved out on their own gave them reason for some sober thought. They expended monstrous amounts of energy preparing speeches for the U. N. speech contest and the other speech contest peculiar in origin to the junior year. Becoming eligible for membership in most school societies, they began for the first time to take responsible parts in school life, culmi- nating their year were the election from among the juniors of the student body officers and club officers, and the selection of mar- shals for the following year. The junior class, with a new sensation of importance, readied to step into the shoes of the departing seniors. l'npJi' Tfwnvljx'-.Y1'nrr 17-i- - of-A JUNILIH5 JAMES BLACKBURN .

Youngsters still, but finally begining to get their high school sea-legs, the sopho- mores were the sandwich class, the middle- kid-not many clubs to ioin, no outstanding school functions to engineer. They escaped boredom by going steady, dissecting worms in biology, and starting minor fads. By try- ing out fast music, cigarettes, and getting past Doc's office without a pass card, they bided the time until they could get their driver's licenses, and stay out until eleven-thirty. Always lively and lovable-though con- templating their books with still-uncertain ambition-they began to resemble tomor- row's upper-classmen.

Struggling to keep their composure intact and their books well stacked in the crowded halls, the freshmen were completely submerged in the well- ordered world to which their class of over 300 fourteen-year-olds came en masse. They learned during their initi- ation not to shove fellow-students in crowds, that two-hour exams are not lethal, that it is safest to obey rules, and, above all, that high school offers amazing amounts of interest and value.

Chosen to represent Wilkes Central's band at the North- western Band Clinic were Carter Perkins, Robin Winkler, Ann Starr, Gaynell McEntire, and Sam Osborne, The Wilkes Central Band under a new director, Mr. Bill Robinson, spent a very fulfilling year. September after- noons found the band members hot and tired but eager to perfect each new formation, as they drilled over and over again. Before each football game, the band formed two football lines and played Victors , our school song, while the football players ran through the lines. The flashy green and gold uniforms were seen at many festive occasions-Appalachian's Homecoming, the Caro- lina-Wczke Forest game, the United Nations Day parade, and Wilkes Central's own Homecoming parade. The an- nual Christmas Concert featured the band and the glee club appearing together.

Their outstanding duties also included conducting Green and Gold Day, and the campaign for and election of '57-'58 student body officers, engineering the amusing faculty basketball games, lending a helping hand to the community polio drive and the year Awards Day.

At the bi-monthly meetings members discussed cur- rent teen-age problems, heard interesting political arguments, and learned about religious beliefs in other countries. Gaining a feeling of satisfaction in doing some- thing worthwhile, they operated concession stands at basketball games, raised money for the YMCA World Service Fund, took food to a needy family at Christmas, and in co-operation with the Hi-Y held daily devotions at school.

X COLLEEN MOORE Managing Editor The 1957 annual staff, a team of thirty-two, care- fully chosen from the best qualified applicants, spent a profitable year studying not only yearbook pro- cedure, but also iournalistic newspaper techniques. Carefully schooled in salesmanship, members of the staff completed in November a most successful selling of advertisements for the Green and Gold. Enthusiastic over the '56 yearbook's winning of first place honors in Western North Carolina, the staff with fresh vigor worked with the managing editor, Colleen Moore, and the copy editor, Lynn Sowder, to draft page plans and capture bits of school life in copy.

The final product of group and individual efforts- the bright new '57 Green and Gold-was a com- plete satisfaction to the weary staff. Already, junior members, with the journalist's characteristic industry, had begun thinking of next year's big item on their agenda-the '58 yearbook.

The club with the help of its faculty advisors, Mrs. Foster and Mrs. Vannoy, provides members with the oppor- tunity to learn much about their chosen profession. Friendly arguments and enlightening opinion ex- changes during the year's meetings have helped members to form valuable opinions about their future profession and to rid themselves of qualms or ques- tions they may have had about teaching.

Although some concern was expressed re- garding the greenness of many of this year's Eagles, these fears were partially quelled by our smashing victories over Hudson, 27-6, in the season's first game, and then over Taylors- ville, 25-6. Our first defeat came when, with high hopes, the Eagles traveled to Hickory, on- ly to be defeated 2'l-6. Bitter from their 24-0 shellacking of the prev- ious year, Morganton faced the Eagles with revenge in their eyes. A hard-fought battle all the way, the game, around which W. C.'s homecoming celebration was built, ended in a 7-7 deadlock. After losing to Lenoir, 19-22, the Eagles bounced back into the winning column by de- feating their arch-rival Valdese, 7-6. .I Jim Shumate, Eagle lineman, was named all-conference, all-state, all-American and represented W.

Mid-November found Coach Bobbie Brooks' Lady Eagles starting the grueling practice sessions, that preceded their T956-57 basketball season. The girls, wanting to better their fifth-place conference rating of last season, worked hard to acquire speed and shooting skill. The Central girls turned back their first two op- ponents, Elkin and Statesville, in non-conference games, then in their first conference game they bowed to Taylorsville. However, sporting new uni- forms and god sportsmanship, the Brooks' sextet bounced back to win the next seven games by ample margins. The Lady Eagles were in a solid second place as they started the second half of the conference sched- ule. Though turned back again by Taylorsville, they were determined to keep that second-place loop, and maintaining their brilliant performance, they de- feated the remaining seven teams. Thus they ended the regular season with a T4-2 conference record, which enabled them to compete in the conference tournament at Lincolnton.

BASKETBALL Handicapped by the graduation of his winning five of the previous season, Coach Young began the 1956-57 season as one of rebuilding. The team, however, made up for its inexperience in height, giving every opponent terrific battle. Opening the season by bowing to Elkin, the Eagles bounced back to quell Statesville 48 to 39. Though defeated by the Taylorsville quintet in the season's first conference game, the Central team got back in the running when they defeated both Marion and Morganton in the most exciting games of the season. Falling to the powerful Hickory five and to the Lenior team, whom they defeated in the second half of the season, the Eagles still maintained their good spirits, they were defeated by only two points by both Hud- son and Valdese, thus showing great improvement.
