In each of those aspects of life there have been those who, because of their particular achievements, have made themselves great. No state has contributed a greater share of leaders to our country than our own native Virginia. It is in recognition of this contribution and of these leaders that we have selected four Vir- ginians from the great host of prominent ones. These represent, to us, four who have set high standards in their own fields and whose lives and characters are worthy of emulation.

In our own groups at Wilson we have recognized, in some students, qualities that probably point to excellent leadership in the future. In all the phases of this activity we call living: mental, moral, physical, and social, we may have seen the importance of leadership. Yvth appreciation for their contributions, we, the staff this 1945 President, dedicate our annual to the leaders of the past, present, and future. b Qlma ater Wilson High School, Alma Mater, Loud we sing thy praise, All thy loyal sons and daughters Hearts and voices raise. May thy name e'er stir our memories All our zeal inspire, And to bring to thee fresh laurels, Be our heart's desire.

Svtneenep Principal I LEADERS OF WOODROW WILSON HIGH SCHOOL Past, Present and Future In the stated philosophy of Woodrow Wilson High School, one of the prime objectives is to provide opportunities for the develop- ment of leadership. One has only to look back over the records of not only the present generation, but of the generations which reach back to the beginning of this High School to realize that the attain- ment of this objective has been fulfilled. Graduates and former students of the High School have contributed in outstanding measure in all fields of our American Way of Life. A roster of men and women successful in the professional fields-clergymen, dentists, physicians, educational leaders, musicians, lawyers-would include a goodly proportion of our graduates. In the world of business would be found successful bankers, publishers, railroad oHicials, engineers, technicians, and men active in varied civic organizations. Graduates of this High School are found in positions of responsibility in the Navy Yard, many of such leaders having obtained their fundamental training in our shops and laboratories. No one doubts for a moment that leaders of the generation which must manage the Post-War World will of necessity be men and women of broad understanding and special aptitudes. To this end, our High School is redoubling its effort to prepare the present genera- tion for the positions of leadership which will be required of them. jllllr. Q.

All the things that have made us dignified seniors, such as, our familiarity with a great majority of students and teachers, holding of offices in clubs, our calling cards, class rings, and a few privileges CD here and there will soon be memories. Let me begin with our freshman year. On February 1, 1941, we came to Wilson, cooked up with the idea of being rulers of the school, city, and people around us. True, we were proud and stuck up. Arent all fresh- men? I'd better admit here that we were a little scared, too. We felt lost, but we soon overcame that feeling. After we were settled, we elected our first officers. Dora Leary became our president and Mac Bunting our vice-president. That was an eventful year, and we learned fast, very fast. Well, by February 1, 1942, we became sophomores. We were no longer rats. We were now human, and a few of our upper classmen started to treat us as such. We were a mighty happy class of Sophs. Then our great and mighty arose among us. Charlie Briggs's red hair began to attract the opposite sex. George Davis played junior Varsity Football and lost seven pounds. Robert Pagliaro began to wear bow ties, and David Lindauer distinguished himself as the head of the class intelligentsia. 'This year we elected Robert Pagliaro our president and Don Kilgore our vice-president. We improved a little on our knowledge of algebra, English grammar, and Latin, as all good sophs do, and about that time we began to hear Pistol Packin' Mama, Miss You, and another new song, White Christmas. Then came February 1, 1943. We were Juniors and half through with our high school life. We then began to shine. After electing Pat Barham, who is not in our graduating class, but who was then a junior, as our president and Charlie Briggs as vice-president, we put Charlie Briggs on the Student Council as Director of Publicity and George Davis as Director of Public Service. With those two and our class representative, Mac Bunting, on the Council, too, our class began to show some power in the Students' own selected few who govern us. Truly we started a great school career. We attended more football games, went to more dances, joined more clubs, and met more people. It was in that year that most of our class went to the Newport News football game. We will never forget-what a game! Boys like Bill Shaw, Garland Stuart, and Mansfield Jordan began to sing Deep in the Heart of Texas and I'm Tired an' I Wanna Go Home, while girls like Virginia Miller, Dora Leary, and Mary Minton sang My Heart Tells Me. Fven with colored shoe strings, loud socks, and the gas shortage, we rolled on, but one of the worst tragedies in the history of Wilson occurred that year. During the game with Elizabeth City, N. C., one of our boys, Roger Buck Childs, was killed. All Wilson mourned Buck, and a grand tribute was paid him in the annual that year in the form of a poem by June Lochenour and a drawing by Lee Lively. Near the end of the term we started to order class rings and pre- pared to become seniors while the Brain--and here 1 refer to David Lindauer- continued a monotonous succession of A's on his report card. Then on February 1, 1944, we became seniors. It was the most wonderful experience most of us ever had. We promptly elected class officers. Charlie Briggs was elected president and Dora Leary vice-president. It was this same year that two of our classmates, George Freeman Davis and Reginald Eugene Byrd, played outstanding football in the Wilson line. Byrd received the honor of being placed on the All-Southern team. We had a better than average team this year because of a hard playing crowd of boys and a new coach. We lost only to Newport News and the state champs, Granby of Norfolk. Then with songs like Don't Fence Me In, Always, and Hamp's Boogie Woogie, Bill Shaw's familiarity with the office, getting our class rings and calling cards, Baby Day, Briggs's reputation in Trig class, class statistics, and all the things that make a senior's life perfect, we prepared to graduate. But we will never forget Wilson! Sincerely yours, ALL US SENIORS-MAC BUNTING, Class Historian. HOWARD AMDUSKY Moose THELMA LOUISE BAKER D. O. Club, Victory Chorus.

In the crowded halls, the class when roll is called, The friends we've made and all the things we've learned For you we'll yearn. Through the help we've had, from the teachers who were glad to do The most they could to help us through Our gratitude may we express And know that thru our happiness, we always will be true To our colors, Orange and Blue, We sigh-A-Farewell to you. By CORKY HARVEY and BUDDY VAUGHAN. JUNE CLASS HISTORY By ELAINE HOl.DER I It was the year of '41, Our high school days were then begun. We were a bunch of frightened rats Without a place to hang our hats. Into that large school house we went, To our homerooms we, first, were sent. Our schedule cards before us layg About the halls we all did stray. Soon everything became more calm, And we were not filled with alarm. Bob Parker became our President, Of Room 211 was a resident. The football games were a big thrill, We yelled and yelled with right good will. Then came those awful things! Exams! We worked and worked-how we did cram! And what a joy-yes, we passed! We were Educated Rats, at last. In the month of March, we were amazed When our dear school with fire did blaze! Out we marched, the streets did fill, just as if it were a drill. The plays and concerts we enjoyed Until our A. A. stamps were void. II I When we were Silly Sophomores, Our Wilson football team made scores. That year Pat Barham was our choice, When votes for president we did voice. In January, '43 Our land's First Lady we did see. The operetta was a treat As our musicians we did greet. A look at seniors made us say, Oh, we'll be glad on Baby Day. And so we closed our second year With dreams of upper classes near. III Our Junior year we'll ne'er forget When fascinating work we met. We all began to stand up straight, For Posture' Week was at our gate. We wished to guard our yellow tag, So of good posture we could brag. This was sponsored gladly by The Athletic Board and Girls' Hi-Y. We all skipped school to see one day The Shangri-La slip down the way. That year's class President was Pat The next at the Council's head he sat. Then came the Coalition Convention, And all of us got lots of attention. We were so happy that spring day, Our Junior-Senior was so gay. To bring our third year to a close As Dignified Seniors, we arose. IV Our last year started with a bang, As the hurricane around about us sang. Coach Esleeck had a winning team, And they beat Maury at high steam. And we were all so proud at last VVhen our new dressed Band strutted past. A gay masked dance at Hallowe'en Where the costumes were the best we'd seen Then came Christmas, bright and fair, Left were our classrooms, cold and bare. Gifts and dances we enjoyed, Of Latin and Math our brains were void. Examinations came along next. To study much harder was our text. Now the spring term did appear With thoughts of graduation nearg Of Baby Day, of music treats, Of work and play, of athletic feats, Of Senior Prom, and caps and gowns, Of school routines-of ups and downs. Long will remain in our memories The names of these-opr celebrities: To Edna Earle Waters-thanks we raise, For the '45 President speaks her praise. To Miss Mary Rice, we humbly say Thanks for helping us along our way. We'll ne'er forget Doris Anne Walker, For did she not give us our Hi Sparker? There are more names we'd like to mention If we had the space we'd give them attention To Mr. Sweeney, best wishes and thanks. To Mr. Mapp, who joined our ranks, When in '41 with us he came, . We wish good luck and lots of fame. Adieu to all at VVilson High! Although we hate to say good-bye! Our days at school have brought us joy To each of us, each girl and boy. So may good luck to all arrive, Says the Senior Class of '45, JUNE HISTQRY-Contznued CAROLYN BARBARA ABBOTT Forum, Pan-American Club, Girls' Monogram Club Reporter House of Representatives, Lanier Literary Society, Shakespearean Club Victory Chorus, ROBERT STAFFORD ALFORD Bobby CLARA LUCILLE ALLEN lfldut-yi!

Those students interested in dramatics, or stage work, became members of the Dramatic Club by trying out and filling out applications telling of their past experience. The Dramatic Club presented a Navy Day Program in October for the students of VVilSon. The outstanding event of the year was the presentation on December 8th of Louisa M. Alcott's Little VVomen. Three one-act plays entitled The Bracelet of Doom, The Ghost of a Showf' and Miss Personality Plus were given successfully on March 23rd.

Afdvzser The lVlathematics Club offers to its members opportunities for research into many fascinating phases of mathematics that are excluded from class discussions, or else presented in very brief fashion, due to the restrictions imposed by time and the required course of study, The fourth dimension is an illustration of one such topic that is delved into with some interesting results and stimulating discussion. The game side of mathematics is also featured in the club programs. intriguing facts about the history of mathematics are presented so that an enriched background of mathematical knowledge is accumulated, from which to forge ahead into new revelations of mathematical truths. Programs are planned in a sincere effort to balance effectively the entertaining and instructional features of the subject so that profit and enjoyment result not only for the student who is especially apt in the subject but also for the student who is interested, if not particularly skilled in mathematical manipulations. The club seeks to keep its members posted on and acquainted with new books in the mathematical field and sometimes has a book review as a means of presenting such a topic. The club programs seek to be timely by considering any trends of the moment such as the army's speed up program in the essentials of mathematics, and the requirements in mathematics for entrance into the Air Corps. The fact that members choose to meet after school so that meetings will not be hurried is a rather good indication that the club functions in lively fashion.

All persons taking at least second semester art and seniors, outside of the art department but hav- ing had art at one time, are eligible to join the club. Although newly organized, the Art Club hopes to accomplish much in the years to come. The club plans to have outside sketching, a tour of the Norfolk Museum, a study of famous Portsmouth landmarks, to sponsor exhibits, and to improve the Art Room. This year the club provided a Christmas tree for the Art Room and had a Christmas party. The members made a contribution for the needy families at Christmas time. Also Christmas cards, which were taken to the Naval Hospital, were printed from linoleum blocks A program has been planned for each meeting, and art work in use today has been presented. A constitution for the Art Club has been drawn up by the members. -lox-INNY VVYA'I r, Prexident fCamera Shyl Brut. CI.Av'roN J. T.

It was intendend to increase public interest in current affairs. The charter members were june l.ochenour, Don Kilgore, David l.indauer, Marjorie King, june l.yon, Russell Cherry, Betty 'lane Hathaway, Susan Kneeburg, Ann Carhart, Barbara Hoggard, Billy Niemeyer, John Shadonix, and Charles VVood. The club elected ,Iune l.ochenour the first president by acclamation. A committee composed of june Lochenour, lune l.yon, Don Kilgore, and David Lindauer drew up a constitution which was accepted with only: one lone dissenting voice. Miss Lochenour served ably, and upon her graduation Susan Kneeburg, the secretary, assumed charge until a new president was elected. At the first meeting in September David l.indauer was elected the second president. The Forum decided to conduct debates in the auditorium of' Wilson and also with other schools. A double debate was presented in December in which the subjects, Should Portsmouth Have a Curfew and Should Labor Unions Participate in Politics, were discussed. The audience was given the opportunity to ask questions ofthe speakers. This was the first big step toward e :ryone's taking an interest in current affairs. This program was a great success and more were to be presented. A debate was to be held with Maury in hlanuarv, but at the request of Maury, was postponed. The third president was Charles Wood, who was elected in january. The qualifications for membership in the Forum are, a average and the preparation and de- livery o a speech on current affairs. If at any time a member's average drops below B, he is dropped from the rolls. To rejoin, he must go through the same process as a new member. The meeting time is every other Thurs lay at S o'clock in the morning.

The Student Council is made up of a president and four directors elected by the Student Body and a representative elected by the respective classes. lts members try to improve the conditions of the school and try those pupils who have disobeyed rules. . The outstanding work of the Student Council for this year is the revision ot the Constitution, organizing the Board' of Justices, and putting the Point System into effect. The handling of the Second-hand Book Exchange was successful again this year. The Traffic and Lunchroom Directors have helped improve the conditions in the halls and cafeteria. The Public Service Director haslkimproved the school's appearance by planting grass. The Student Council made every eflfort to help make it possible for outsiders to come to school dances. f House of Representatives UCOKKYH l'lARVl-IX' .... , BIARGIE BIALRIAT, .. lXlAl.COI.M BLRNELI.

Once this year the Presi- dents sponsored an afternoon fellowship. All Hi-Y Clubs were invited to take part in an afternoon of good Christian fun. This was topped Off with a Weiner roast. During football season, the Presidents sold tickets at Trant's Drug Store so that congestion at the stadium might be avoided. Among other things, the Presidents helped in putting across the annual Hi-Y Christmas Formal Dance. In February, the Presidents, with the Girls' Junior Hi-Y, put On a Valentine Mix-up Dance. These are a few of the activities of the Presidents' Hi-Y. In the future they hope to complete numerous other projects that will create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character.

We also participated in the Easter Sunrise Services, and were in charge of chapel services for the month of January. The club attended church services, as a body, once a month, with the other Hi-Y clubs. The club helped organize a Girls' Hi-Y group at Alexander Park.

The purpose of the Hi-Y is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. The Hi-Y movement is over fifty years old. More than seven thousand clubs and two hundred thousand boys are now participating in the Hi-Y program. Under the leadership ofYoung Men's Christian Association, conferences and training camps are conducted in all parts of the country to improve the efficiency of the ofHcers and leaders in attaining the purpose of the Hi-Y movement. The Woodrow VVilson High School Junior Hi-Y holds its meetings every Monday night at seven-thirty o'clock in the Y. M. C. A. The slogan of the Junior Hi-Y is clean speech, clean sports, clean scholarship, and clean living. The ambition of a Hi-Y member is to do the best he can in speech, man- ners, and studies, and in service to make life most worth-while for himself and his community.

Cheer Leaders Those eleven vivacious students dressed in sparkling white who create the pep for all the football and basketball games have really been on the ball this year. Early in the fall, tryouts for cheer leaders were held, and despite stiff joints and sore muscles, all the candidates looked pretty limber on the day they were to be chosen. Audrey Bradford, back for her third year with the squad, and Corky Harvey, back for his second year, were chosen as the heads of the squad, and then they began the tough process of trying to create some new yells. Of course, Rickety- Rackety, The Locomotive, and more of the old ones persisted in their popu- larity, but there also was the advent of Dyna, Sausage, and other new yells. Another feature was the emphasis on forming new figures for the yells, which helped to give a better appearance. And we can't forget Scrappy, the little wire-haired terrier mascot, who created quite a sensation with his wild dashes across the field. r ,.. ,,., D Q, Q , 1 Q i 'S I A T3 w. 5 ? sg 5 if ff Z sz if 4 zu 3 5 3 R V it Q S Q Q 5 v 5 A a Q 5 E af fs Y E E 5 Girls' Monogram and Oflicials' Club SUSAN HILL ..... ....., MILDRED RICKETSON . . . ,.

A blocked punt set up Wilson's score, Red Fleming going over from the two on his third try. This was the game that shoved Wilson out of the race for championship and ended Coach Dick Esleeck's 28 game winning streak. In the major game of the year, the annual Maury tilt, the local boys sailed clear with a 12-7 lead. Finding it hard to hit their stride, the Wilson squad finally crossed the big white line in the second period. Taking over on their own 17, the Presidents moved 83 yards in seven runs and a single pass, Charlie Red Fleming going for a 60 yard gain. This brilliant ground attack was climaxed by a pass from Red Fleming to end, Buck Clayton, who caught the pigskin on the goal in the midst of the Maury players. Wilson's final score was made by the triple threat star, Red Fleming, on his second long run of the game. This time Red outran the entire Maury secondary for 72 yards, after going off tackle through the Commodore line. Maury scoring threats were stopped by the stone wall Prexie lineg Reggie Byrd acting as its foundation. A pass by Billy Rainier to Miller, who was downed on the two, set up Maury's only score with Palizos going over three plays later. The breaks went for the Norfolk lads with 90 yards walked off against Wilson. Capturing the last victory of the season, the squad outplayed the Crabbers from Hampton, 12-0, a single point less than this same team was beaten by the Comets from Granby. Getting off to an early start, the Presidents scored both touchdowns in the first half, one on a 28 yard run by Fleming and the other by Captain Jack Mounie on a plunge, and finished out with a de- fensive game. Tasting defeat for the second time, the Wilsonites gave the Granby Comets some tough com- petition, more than was expected, in their 25-13 loss. Scoring one touchdown during each half, the Prexies remained a constant threat till the final gun. The first score was made by Charlie Fleming on a brilliant 68 yard run through the entire Granby eleven. This proved to be the highlight of the game. Our second score was racked up on a pass from Fleming to end, Norman Darley, in the end zone. The great passing attack of these Comets was rendered harmless by the Orange and Blue secondary. It was in this game that the star of our show, Charlie Red Fleming, was injured. Because of the injury to his leg, he was unable to play in the first three quarters of our last game, and his absence was really felt in the 6-0 defeat handed out by Newport News. This was the second loss this season at the hands of the Builders, the Erst at Portsmouth and the Thanksgiving Day game at the Builder Park. The lone score of the game was the result of a blocked punt recovered by a Newport News tackle, Hasting Hark, in Wilson's end zone. Playing about four minutes at the last of the quarter, Charlie Fleming made frequent gains, some as far as 15 yards, despite his lame condition. There's my story, folks, and I know none of us will ever forget the fame these '44 Presidents have given our school. FOOTBALL SCORES ,Here Here -Wilson Here -Wilson There-Wilson Here -Wilson .... . .

Curtis Abbitt Clayton, born in Portsmouth, wants to play professional baseball. Playing end, Buck took a first string place On the All-Foreman Field eleven for his extra brilliant season. Norman Leslie Darley, born in Huntington, VVest Virginia, has plans to become an engineer. Filling in B1-ammer's place, Darley scored against Granby on a pass. James Linwood Baker, a local youth, would like to be a coach in later life. The last of our lettermen ends, Bootie, stood a constant threat to our Opposition. James Roy Johnson, of Florida birth, makes a guard position a heap of trouble for any runner headed his way and howl Buddy is another of the hard workers on the squad. NORMAN DARLEY, End BOOTY BAKER, End HBUDDYH JOHNSON, Guard REGG1E BYRD, Tackle Reginald Eugene Byrd of famous Roanoke CPD plans to become a pro-football player. Reggie, starring in each game, placed First squad on the All-Foreman Field collection and then took the honor of all honors by being picked on the All-Southern team, to run side by side with the best in our country. . John Philip Wyatt, better known as Pookum , does a swell job of holding down a first string tackle post. Pookum has caused many a fourth down to turn into our first. John Alwyn Richards, from way over in Seattle, Washington, who was our other center, wants to be a dentist. Specializing in pass intercepting on the goal line, he pulls the Prexies out of deep holes. Joseph Fendle Outten, of Lynchburg, wants to play football. Hard working Joe, plugged his way up the ladder to become one ofthe Prexies' best linemen. POOKUM WYATT, Tackle JOHNNY RICHARDS, Center JOE OUTTEN, Tackle Q 5 TUGGLE WEBB, Guard GEORGE DAVIS, Cenler PAT BARHAM, Guard BEN ANDREWS Guard Thomas Harry Webb, from right here in Portsmouth, would like to learn something about football. From the way he smashes up the opposition, one is inclined to believe he's learned enough. George Freeman Davis of Portsmouth wants to be a husband. Porkie won his star this year by getting into just about every tackle and pulling in intercepted passes while holding the center post down. Edward Adolphus Barham, a Richmond lad, whose ambition is to be a doctor, carried the many messages of Coach Esleeck, along with Ben. Pat has saved the day often by his hard hitting and messenger service, and he captured honors on the All-Tide- water squad. Benjamin Elliott Andrews from down South in Winfield, Alabama, just wants to get out of school first. It was Ben that carried coach's plays to the huddles if Coach Dick wanted some- thing new. Team at Newport Ne-wr RHAE ADAMS, ,Quarterback SI.ax2PY BORUM, Haybark Switching over to our Iron Men backfield, I'll start with our Captain, Jack Robert Mounie. Captain Jack hails from our own fair city and hopes to go to college some day. With drive as his pass-word, Jack has set up more scores than Carter has pills. Captain won honors when votes for All-Tidewater players were cast. Rhae Woodson Adams of Gretna, Virginia, wants a big home and lots of children. Rhae played exceedingly well in every game and helped his team with his reverse plays. Howard Wilson Borum, born in Portsmouth, has already reached his ambition in the eyes of most. He wants to be a football player and a good one. As blocking back, Howard has really put many touchdowns over but has received little credit. He can never be too highly praised for his hard work. And finally, last but far from least, is the Star of Our Show, Charles Peek Fleming, of Florida, hopes to someday attend Duke. Charlie thinks nothing of racing 80 yards through an entire team or of tossing a 40 yard pass across the Held, for these plays hap- pened in just about every game. Upon Charlie rests the punting duties and even here he becomes a star. He played first string on both the All-Tidewater and All-Foreman Field elevens. Now just before I leave you, let me remind you, we owe all our thanks for this great season to Coach Dick Esleeck and those hard working second teams, who do the hardest of work and get the least credit. Let's not forget that they make the te m.

After encountering several superior Navy teams, which put the boys in shape, we went on to tackle Newport News. Newport News was rated by sports writers to be the team which would pull the biggest surprise. They defeated VVilson 33-24, with Charlie Fleming scoring 17 points for us. Hampton, the next team we encountered, was our first victim. Fleming scored 12 points as we de- feated them 24-18. VVe now were tied with Granby for second place in the district championship. YVe encountered Granby the following week, and lost 34-23, Mounie scoring 8 points. He was accepted as captain when Fleming, because of a knee injury, was put out of action for the rest of the season. Newport News was out next victim, and we defeated them 19-18, with Peacock, a new boy in the line-up, doing some fancy shooting. We had now won two and lost two. We met Maury and Granby the next week-end, and lost to both. Maury defeated us 25-24 in a hard fought contest, and Granby, who was bidding for the eastern division championship, overwhelmed us 56-26. Our next encounter was with Hampton, whom we defeated 29-18. Borjes rolled up the points in this game. Our last encounter was with Maury, who defeated us 40-213. We held them down through the first half, but at the second half, they rolled over us. Borjes was elected as the Prexies' captain for nxt season, and Booty Baker had the honor of scoring the highest number of points for the whole season.

Although winning our first game with Holy Trinity, we lost our second game to Maury 9-7. Lennie Luke, our star pitcher, was nicked for ten hits. Two of these were home runs. Granby fell under us by the score of 5-4. VVe trailed Granby for seven innings 4-0. In the eighth frame Luke got on safe on an error and came in on Bill Smith's triple. Then Buck Clayton, cap- tain, was good for another triple, Smith scoring Robison, was safe at hrst, Clayton scoring. Then Fred Manley stepped up to the plate and slammed a home run, scoring Robison and himself. Our team has three first stringers back from last year. They are Manley, Clayton, and Luke. The community league is mostly responsible for our strong team. It sent up such boys as Robison, Smith, Johnson, and others. Few of our baseball team will graduate, so we will have a team to be proud of next year, also.

Coach Esleeck stated that he would have a track team this year if he had to run every event himself. However, quite a few boys came out to track practice, the outstanding ones being Adams, Austin, Burnell, Blow, Borum, Bridges, Collins, Haynes, Mounie, Oast, Payne, Smith, Webb and Zoll. Our First big contest was with Granby. Although we lost by the score of 99-18, the boys gained needed experience. Our only first place was nabbed by Borum who heaved the javelin 151 feet 7 inches. Haynes came in second in the 880, and Adams second in low hurdles. Mounie came in third in the pole vault, Oast, third in the high hurdles, Bridges, third in the mile, Borum, third in the 440, Zoll, third in the 100, Bill Smith, third in the broadjump, and Payne, third in the low hurdles. The experience came in well, and at the next meet, with Hampton, we gained 56 points to Hampton's 61. We took seven first places in thirteen events. Hampton was ahead 55-53 when they capped the low hurdles to clinch the decision. Our first places were javelin, shot, broad jump, discus, mile, 440, 880, and tie in the 220. Borum won the javelin, Adams, the shot, Austin, broad jump, Adams, discus, Bridges, mile, Borum, 440, Haynes, 880, and Zoll tied for first in the 220. Mounie came in second in the pole vault, Payne, second in the javelin, YVebb, second in discus, Zoll, second in the 100, and Payne, second on the low hurdles. Oast came in third in the high hurdles, Cain, third in the mile, Adams, third in 100. Next year our team has a better chance as there will be some experienced boys in track. Good luck to next year's track team! ,, , ,,,,, .... . I I 1 K I r T I ' ' i ' A u - E n F ,v 35 3 ! K A 'S 5 E E i E 3 5 5?

The intramural volleyball race was very close, and in the final game two un- defeated- teams met. The Freshman team, Bobettes by name, whipped the once tied Senior team and thus won the championship. Tweet, tweet, the shrill sound of a whistle was heard and the girls' basketball teams were off to a big start. The race was on! Each team went into its game with confidence and with the determination to come out victorious. These games were fast and full of excitement. The Champs, a freshman team, played the Senior team, the Dribblets for the Intramural Girls' Basketball Championship. SusAN HII.L.. ....., . . . ..,..
