Winterville High School - Searchlight Yearbook (Winterville, NC)

Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1955 volume:

THE SEARCHLIGHT 1954-55 WINTERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL Throughout the pages of his, the 1954-55 SEARCH- LIGHT , rrfay be found hands signifying the different atti- tudes of the individual classes . However, no matter how small and insignificant, each pair of hands has a purpose in life to fulfill, a mission of service to accomplish. Through pic- tures, more than through words, this message is por- trayed. It is thus that we have endeavored to carry out our theme. Dedicated Hands. T)edicatioH Once long ago in Europe two men were living together, each trying to make enough money to study to be an artist and keep himself alive at the same time. Neither was succeeding, so they agreed that one would go to work and send the other to school to study; when the first one had finished school, he would paint and sell his work to send the other one to study. The older man said that since he already had a good job in a restaurant he would work first and let the younger man study. He worked hard--washing dishes, scrubbing floors, and doing odd jobs; but in his unselfishness he was happy, for he was sending his young friend to school. At the same time he lived in the dreams of the day when he could again take up the brush. At last the younger man, Albert Durer , sold a painting! He urged his friend to return to his studio , but something had happened I The work had stiffened the older man’s joints and twisted his fingers so that they could no longer use the brush. His dream of painting was shat- tered and lost, but with a wonderful spirit he returned to his work at the restaurant so that Durer could devote all his time to painting. One day Durer came to his little room and found his friend kneeling in prayer. As he en- tered and saw the work-worn hands folded reverently in prayer, he thought, “I can never give back the lost skill to those hands , but I can show the world the feeling of love and gratitude which is in my heart for his noble deed. I will paint his hands as they are now, folded in prayer, and the world shall know my appreciation for a noble, unselfish character. It may be that when people look at the picture they will remember with love and devotion all hands that toil for oth- ers and, like me, express in some beautiful way their appreciation for such service.” So it is that we dedicate this, THE SEARCHLIGHT of 1954-55, to those who have toiled in the past that we may have this glorious opportunity. Time and space will not permit us to call them by name; for, after all, each one of us would have a different list of loved ones and friends who have made it possible for us to enjoy this year of joy and glory as seniors. May we also dedicate our own hands to service to others and to the work intended for us. ‘ ‘Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do , do it with thy might .” (Ecclesiastes 9:10) Every student who has passed through these halls this year has a place to fill in the world. May we. dedicate our hands to the work God has for us to do! O God, our Father, give me clean hands, clean words, clean thoughts; Help me to stand for the hard right against the easy wrong; Save me from habits that harm; Teach me to work as hard, and play as fair in Thy sight alone as if all the world saw; Forgive me when I am unkind; and help me to forgive others who are unkind to me; Keep me ready to help others at some cost to myself; Send me some chances to do a little good every day, and to grow more like Ghrist.

We learned to add and write and read; We longed for security and happiness---not need. Before we knew it we had entered high school And soon found we had to live by rule. Our freshman and sophomore years went with a dash Then we found ourselves juniors in need of some cash. We ordered our class rings the first of the year, And sat on pins ‘till we heard they were here. A few months later our final year’s event Was the giving of a banquet for the seniors’ benefit. After a wonderful summer we were back in school again As dignified seniors we had much knowledge to attain. We chose officers, superlatives, mascots and speakers all in the way of fun; Now we’re looking forward to class day and our trip to Wa shington. Before our dreaded last exams We hope to receive our caps and gowns. Down the aisle we’ll slowly march, a tear in every eye, We’ll receive our diplomas with forced smiles as each holds his head up high. Please don’t forget us teachers and friends and our principal, too, For even after our long, hard climb we’ll never, never forget you! Poet Jennie Brown Worthington A CLASS COLORS Green and White CLA.SS MOTTO “Learning to do; Doing to learn; Earning to live; Living to serve,’ CLASS FLOWER White Gladiola STATISTICIAN POET Evelyn Williams Jennie Brown Worthington “Zhe Mauds Of Zime” SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Twelve long years ago, we entered school. We were a little shy then, some of us darling little things and others brave young fellows, as we began the long road to the goal we have almost reached. But wait a minute--did I say long years ? Those years were but a short period and soon we were green awakened freshmen. Mrs. Collins was our home room teacher. For the first time we changed classes; we really felt grown. It was hard to remember which desk to sit in because there was a different place in each class, but we soon learned our places and felt quite accom - plished . In a short year, we were sophomores and Mrs. Flanagan was the first teacher to see us each morning. This year, we were waitresses at the Jr. -Sr. and most of the class attended the prom. The theme this year was “Hawaii.” We were begin- ning to feel more like a real part of high school now because we were taking part in more of the club work and activities. Soon we knew what it was like to be a junior. The first important event of the year was ordering our class rings. How proud we were of them. Each of us went around with his hand in a prevalent position so everybody would notice his new ring. But the thrill of their newness wore off, as soon as the military finish did. Then we were in charge of that annual event, the Jr .-Sr . We really got a big kick out of planning and decorating. It was pretty hard to keep our plans a secret, but some how most of them were kept until the big night. We worked several days and even- ings on the decorations and were really proud of them when we finished. Our theme was “Chinese Fete,” and the evening was considered a successful one. The boys did look dashing in their dark suits and the girls in their full skirts, new hair-dos, high-heels, and rhinestones , flounced everywhere. Even the teachers looked differ- ent! At last we are seniors __we have reached our goal. Our invitations and calling cards have been ordered, our mascots chosen, superlatives elected, and our class colors, motto, and flowers selected. We have been measured for our caps and gowns. We’re making big plans for our trip to Washington and are counting the days until we leave. Soon we will graduate, and as we leave, the memories of the gaity and laughter as well as the work will remain. These twelve years have in a large way prepared us for the future. We stand on the threshold, ready to step into the future- -ready to begin a new and different chapter in our history. Rose Waters Historian HISTORIAN Roselyn Waters “Zhe Maud Of ?ate” CLASS PROPHECY Peggy burst through the door calling excitedly Mom ! I’ve been elected senior class prop- het-- but I don’t know what to do! ” “I’ll help you, Peggy; I was prophet for my graduating class. Bring me the 1955 SEARCH- LIGHT from the bookcase.’’ As Peggy got the book and opened it , Mr s . Smith glanced at the yellowed pages and recalled the faces of her classmates. Slowly she began to read. “Alice Gray Bowen and Barbara Manning, close friends always, opened a book shop, “The Readers’ Friend.” “James Evans worked from the bottom of the medical profession to become a famous sur- geon at Pitt Memorial Hospital . Working with him are Janice Tyson Roberts and Betty Lou Nobles, very competent nurses.’’ ‘ ‘Early in their school careers , Doris Cole , Roselyn Waters , Alice Lewis , and Polly Ann Nobles dedicated their lives to God and today the cornerstone of the Winterville Mission bears the names of Nobles, Waters, and Lewis as founders, and Doris is telling the story of Jesus in Italy.” “Shirley Butler and Anna Stancill, happily married before graduating, have opened a mar- riage bureau, which gives advice to newly-weds.” “Charles Hardee, drafted after graduation , liked military life so well that he stayed in ser- vice and retired as General Hardee.” “Graydon Tripp’s interest in politic s paid off. He now represents North Carolina in the U. S . Senate .’ ’ “Phyllis Jones and Barbara James who harmonized in school are big names in Hollywood, working with L. B. Garris, class wit, who’s a top TV comedian.’’ “SamueT Smith uses that quick tongue he’s had since school days outtalking those lawyers he competes with. If you need legal advice, Sam’s your man. “Burt Worthington, always a rambler, has a job now as Winterville’ s roving reporter.” “Dan McLawhorn was elected the third time he ran for governor and our state is prosper- ing under his leadership.” “Robert Branch, who always reminded us of a business executive, is Superintendent of Pitt County Schools, and Jane Corey, who startedas a clerk, now owns a country-wide chain of stores under the name of Corey Firm.’’ “Marland Grubbs and Jennie Worthington’s talents for art and writing paid off. Today Jen- nie is a celebrated writer, (her latest novel is WHEN LOVE COMES KNOCKING) and Marland is a commercial artist for A. W. Ange Co.’’ “Patsy Tyndall’s “smiling voice” brought big dividends. She draws a large salary work- ing as a telephone operator for Bell Telephone Co. in Winterville.” “Bobby Coggins is the star pitcher for the New York Yankees. That fastcurve paid off! ’’ “La Verne Joyner always could manage children. All the little folks at Winterville love her as their dancing teacher.’’ “Eula Oakley and Barbara Vandiford, who used to know the juciest gossip, now have a col- umn in THE WINTERVILLE DAILY TIMES entitled, “In and About Town.” “Thurman Vincent found an easy life-- he discovered oil in his back yard.’’ “Glenn Barnes, who always loved the hard work of farming, is head of the U. S. Department of Agriculture.’’ “Evelyn Williams, successful editor of the school paper, is editor of THE LADIES’ HOME JOURNAL.” “Ray Jackson’ s swiftness and agility led him to become a trapeze artist in Ringling Broth- ers’ Circus .’ ’ “Gene Trip p always liked bright lights and pretty girls. You’ll find both at Tripp’s Club Tropicana in Hollywood.” “Marvin Robinson, who profited by spending most of his spare time at the movies, is executive producer of Columbia Pictures.’’ “Happy-go-lucky BryanJoyner of schooldays is now the beloved pastor of the Winterville Baptist Church.” “Stella Loftin ’’ “Why that’s you!” Peggy interrupted. “Stella Loftin,” read Mrs. Smith, “after teaching three years, settled down to live happily with her husband and daughter. So it seems I’ve prophesied correctly. It seems just yesterday that we were walking through the halls of dear old Winterville High, going to and from classes. My! How time flies! ’’ Stella Mae Loftin Prophet PROPHET Stella Mae Loftin ' ‘Mand-jie- ' DowHS ’ ’ LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the Senior Class of 1955, being of sound mind and body and aoout to depart from Winterville High School, do make and declare this our last will and testament.

H. S. band Those exciting tight basket ball games When everybody wore his own high school ring When girls could turn up their ankle socks without going steady The confusion at the Sandwich Shop after ball games When cardigans were worn with the buttons in front Those long days when everybody had “spring fever’’ When “dog collars’’ were for dogs only When scatter pins were for sweaters not socks The days before crenolines When jive chains were unheard of When “can-cans” meant French dancers When nobody had a disc When boys wore windbreakers with sleeves in them When suede was for shoes not jackets When girls wore their own sweaters When nobody had heard of Marilyn Monroe When F.

This is a holy place and here it seems that one can feel the presence of God more keenly than in other places about us. If you have a problem, a temptation, or just want to be near- er to God, you’re welcomed here, but take care to enter quietly for others may be at prayer or Bible reading. Let us remember that God has said, “BE STILL, AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD.” Psalm 46:10 This is the sign hanging on the door of the room we call our “Prayer Room.” Groups meet here every day to pray and read God’ s word . These groups of students are called “Prayer Cells.” Each cell has a leader who is in charge of each meeting. Anyone who wishes to do so may become a mem- ber of a Prayer Cell. We’re very proud of these cells, the newest addition to our activities! “Zkere Stands My Mater ” — WINTERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL SONG We ' ll sing praise to thee, old Winterville High, On thee our love bestow. Fdr honor’s sake and endless fame, straight to the goal we’ll go. We will cheer the purple and the gold as they ever wave on high; We will cheer the bearers of the purple and the gold; We’re the children of Winterville High! Many eyes are on thee, dear, as fast you win your way. Service, truth, and honor, too� are standing hard at bay. O’Henry and Bryan now, all make up the full array; We will cheer our motto, “Service, as we are cheering it today!
