These same walls may be divided into rooms, each completely furnished with the most modern equipment and teaching aids, and each filled with eager students, but until the motivating force in the person of the classroom teacher is added, there will still be just four walls and a roof. Woodrow Wilson has been quite fortunate over the years in the high quality of its teaching personnel. This fast is fairly evident in the comparatively small turn over of qualified teachers from year to year on the local scene. Portsmouth must have a certain amount of attraction as is evidenced by the fact that so many former graduates return to make continued contributions at the scene of their undergraduate study. A love of the profession, an interest in the welfare of youth, and a devotion to duty are ranking characteristics that all good teachers possess. One does not have to look too far within the walls of Wilson to find evidences of these in the members of the teaching staff. Making the learning situation a meaningful one has long been a well established standard here, and as long as the Calibre of the individual classroom teacher continues on the high level of the past, that situation should remain unchanged. The person heading up our faculty is principal R. L. Sweeney, who after 40 years of service in the Portsmouth school system has announced his retirement at the end of the present school year. Mr. Sweeney was born September 24, 1888 in Bonham, Texas. After attending ele- mentary and high school there, he attended the University of Texas where he received his Bachelor of Arts degree, with an intense desire to further his education, he registered at Columbia University where he received his Master of Arts degree. During his summer vacations he studied at the University of Virginia and the University of Chicago. Since his college days he has devoted his time to education and youth. He taught in a Norfolk school, and then at Greenville County School in Emporia, Virginia. In 1918 he came to Wilson, and has remained here for forty years, teaching chemistry and physics while assuming the responsibilities of Assistant Principal. Now he is known to all of us as, “our principal.” Mr. Sweeney’s greatest hobby and joy is reading. He also likes golf and traveling. Mr. and Mrs. Sweeney have taken trips to Europe, Cuba, and Texas. He is very active in the Trinity Episcopal Church and has had the honor of being a vestryman and a Junior and Senior Warden. It is with the greatest humility and pride that we dedicate this 1958 President to Principal R. L. Sweeney, who has given so much of himself in the interest of his school, church, and community. wR LNINNUIAOD fae nidemewne Jon yy NYJIGZANY Ee ee Ree ee eee eR RM aes i NF acon i Nit a Tit LEE TRS ESS: Dedication Robert L.

We find, how- ever, that conditions do not change appreciably. We are a little bit older, and we do assume more responsibilities that come with being Seniors, but down deep remains the feeling that we are only human. Underclassmen look up to us as minor dieties; as untouchables, and unapproachables. Before this year, we seemed more like people, and less like something special. For three years underclassmen try to follow in the Seniors’ footsteps and to gain some recognition from them, even if it’s just a warm, friendly smile, and a “hello” in the hall. Underclassmen watch the Seniors anxiously at football and basketball games, at ‘““The Circle”, and all about. school, wishing to enter what seems to them a magic world of Seniority. Seniors occupy most of the higher offices of the school. They are idolized as the Editor of “The Student” and ‘The President’’, head cheerleaders, heads of the Student Council, presidents of clubs, captains of athletic teams and, in general, contribute to the backbone of the school. Once you have stepped into the shoes of being a Senior like we have this year, idealistic dreams vanish, and we find we are no different than other students. We are only a little more experienced. : It’s hard to realize that as a Senior our every move, speech, and dress will be imitated by some tenderfoot undergraduate. Three years pass quickly, and during the fourth year without knowing it, we hand down to someone else the traits we once mimicked in those worldly Seniors. Serving as class adviser to both Senior classes this year has been Mr. Patrick Blake. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond his control, he had to relinquish the advisor- ship to the June class this spring. Mr. Blake was born in Stuarts Draft, Virginia, and came to Wilson as our Distributive Education Director in 1955. He has since become one of our most popular teachers. Popularity and honors, however, seem to be nothing new to Mr. Blake, for in 1953, when he was attending Fairmont State College in West Virginia, he was selected to the National Who’s Who in American Colleges and Universities. In addition to this, he was named the outstanding student in his class, received the outstanding Distribution Educa- tion Award, and Outstanding Actor Award. Mr. Blake is an extremely busy man. Besides going to school all day, he attends school at night, taking courses toward his Master’s Degree, at the William and Mary Division in Norfolk. He is also very active in the Portsmouth Little Theater. His many hobbies include reading, dramatics, radio work, listening to almost all types of music, and, of course, just relaxing with his wife and daughter, Bene Lynne. Mr. Blake loves to travel and uses his vacations for this purpose to good effect. The June graduating class wishes to especially thank Mrs. Phyllis Byrd and Mr. Pat Riley who so ably stepped in on short notice and finished out the year as class advisers. a Ptor Pat Blake 5 February CLs Jib fory Remember ........? The “Old” Wilson High School, February, 1952? Wasn't it wonderful? As Eighth Graders, walking in those front doors, we really thought we were getting up in the world. How busy our class was for the first few weeks. We had to study, follow a completely new schedule, meet new friends, and, of course, get lost on the average of two or three times a day. We and the principals became good friends, because we were turned in to the office at least once a week for doing things we didn’t know about to begin with. Joe Helms, the S.C.A. President, extended a very cordial wel- come to our class, but to the other students, we were just little “runts”. That didn’t bother us, though. We were sitting on cloud nine in seventh heaven. Will we ever forget our first day as Freshmen? No longer were we the “babies” of Wilson. We were at last real high school students. Now we could attend all the campaign programs and actually vote in the elections. This was an exceptionally big thrill, be- cause all the candidates wanted our votes. Sometimes they even called us by our real names. The school President in 1952-53 was George Gould. We liked to believe that our votes swung that election. Also, after much campaigning and button distributing, Anne Edwards became our Homecoming Queen. Yes, our Freshman year was great. We at last had recognition. We were students of Woodrow Wilson High. 1953-1954: that was “Victory Year”. Remember how proud we were when our football team won the State Championship in Roanoke? Everything was tops that year. The cheering squad, led by Helen Warren and Barbara Ed- wards, will never be forgotten. Barbara Turner made a beautiful Homecoming Queen, and Kit Morse served the student body well as President. This year was swell climax to all of the fun we had at the “Old” Wilson. We hated to leave, but we really didn’t have much to say about it. The “New” Wilson High School brought many changes. Upon entering the building, our prejudiced opinions made us resent the change and look for faults (especially with the maps we were given). But, we finally had to agree that we had the most wonderful school ever. Wilson’s cafeteria, auditorium, gymnasium, shops, and class- rooms were the best in this part of the state. We were proud of our school, and boasted of nothing else for many months. Bob White was the 1954-1955 President of the S.C.A., and “Bet you’d rather be at Maury, Tommy” “You'll soon be going down the aisle, girls” Brent Wickers became the President of the first Honor Council to be permanently organized here. A petite blond, Gloria Mercer, was elected Homecoming Queen, and our Junior Varsity Basketball team won the Eastern District title with a 21-1 record. Our wonderful high school days were slipping by fast. Before we knew it, we were UPPER CLASSMEN! Being among the leaders of the school now, we all took on a new dignity. Besides our school work, we had class meetings to attend, proj- ects to work on, and numerous plans to discuss. We even elected class officers. Sammy Pope became our president, and Mrs.. Wilda Oakley was our advisor. Old rose and silver were soon decided on as our class colors, and later in the year some of us worked hard, decorating the gym for the Junior-Senior Prom. The theme, “Mconlight Serenade”, was beautiful. Later in the year, we Juniors were further recognized through our individual pictures in the Prestdent. However, our high school days reached a climax when we put on our Class Rings for the first time. This was the same year Mimi Brake was elected our Homecom- ing Queen; Lad Daniels was President of the S.C.A., and Willie Smith followed Brent Wickers as president of the Honor Council. Another highlight during the year was the general election be- tween the candidates for U.S. President, Eisenhower and Stevenson. Stevenson won, but no one is right all the time. This, of course, came about in our Mock Convention. By all means, we can’t forget Baby Day. Wasn't it fun? Yes, those were great days, but the best was saved ’til last. Seniors! We could hardly believe it. We had the world in front of us, and W.W.H.S. at our feet. No class ever had a bet- ter year. We were not only successful in sports, but in everything. Bill Smith was tops as President of the S.C.A. Sammy Pope, with Mr. Pat Blake, our advisor, pulled our class through another year with flying colors as our President. Audrey Cherry was crowned Homecoming Queen at half-time of the first Wilson vs. Churchland football game. If we had been busy in previous years, we were more so now. Class meetings were coming fast and furious. We had a Class eae and Class Play. Statistics were voted, and caps and gowns itted. Then came Baccalaureate and Commencement, and we were again going through doors. We were graduates of the February Class of 1958. We were leaving Woodrow Wilson behind, and with it the best years of our lives. Fi ebruary THOMAS C.

For Wilson High and for us, the Class of ’58, the past four years have been full of joy, excitement, and triumph. Ah, to think back upon this fruitful, memorable part of our lives: in the autumn, when football was in the air and we gazed out the windows at the falling rain; winter, with its basketball games and an occasional light snow to accompany the cold winds that hit us in the morning on the way to school; spring, when the trees and grass again came to life, and boys on the track, golf and baseball teams were practicing; and, finally, summer, when every day dragged out and it seemed school would never let out. But it always did. We can look back at these past four and beam with pride. As insignificant freshmen, our last year in the old building, we cheered ourselves hoarse as the school went all out to make that last year really something. The football team marched to the fourth state title in Wilson history, and the varsity and jayvee basketball teams added a pair of Eastern District titles. Wrestling was initiated, and spring sports made a creditable showing. Came our sophomore year and completely new surroundings. Instead of the old, crowded building, we were in a magnificent quarter-mile long “mansion”. Somebody remarked, “We'll need maps to find out where to go.” Maps were supplied. The football team was runner-up in the district, and knocked Roanoke out of the state title on Thanksgiving Day. Norview High started that year on its winning streak, edging by us, 14-6. A one-point, overtime loss to state champion Newport News in the Eastern District tournament cost us a repeat basketball title. Wrestling showed great improvement and the baseball team wound up second in the district with a 19-2 record. Finally, at last, we crawled out of the ranks of the underclass- men and took our place as juniors. Again the sun shone on us, and everything was geared for another bright year. A powerful gridiron aggregation snatched runner-up honors in the district and third place in the state. We lost only to district titlist Nor- view, 6-0, and state champs W-L, 14-12. Norview rolled on. Next came basketball and, regrettably, Newport News, to whom, once again, we were runner-ups. For the second successive year, Wilson was the only team to beat the Typhoon, which again copped the state title. A winning season for the wrestlers and spring once again brought the usual fine results, though no titles. The big year! At last, we made the top rung of the ladder— seniors! We thought we'd somehow be special, but the under- classmen didn’t think so, and the teachers didn’t let up a bit. There was only the significance that this was our final year. The football team went undefeated until the last game, and we knocked off four unbeaten teams in the process. Our third vic- tim was the one we wanted mcst—Norview. We sure did blast that 22-game winning streak, 27-7! It's really too bad that we had to send this in so early, but if everything went as pre-season predictions figured they’d go, then that Wilson Winning Habit was not broken. Those were all the big things we remember. But, what really fills out our high school picture are the little things, the ac- tivities other than just football and basketball, and the sports. Like the Circle, for instance, or the Dixie, or Rodman’s, which- ever you liked best. There we gathered after the games and on | other nights to get together over a good snack. And who can forget the influence the clubs had on us? Many were the afternoons spent at club meetings, unless we worked under the D. O. or D. E. programs. Even then, they were clubs, too. Open house . . . College Day . . . the assemblies . . . the pep tallies, where gathered the faithful few . . . Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y meetings, all mean an awful lot to us. Homecoming is noted for the football games, true. But wasn’t something special added with the last-minute, frustrated work on the floats for the parade? Prize-winner or not, we had fun. Intramurals . . . rehearsing lines for the 3-act play . . . “senior Statistics’ . . . science fairs . . . study periods ... library... cafeteria “rat races”... football banquet, they all come to mind. Mrs. Brady’s streak of district debate champions over the last nine straight years, and a host of state champs in the other phases of forensics, form another part of the truly complete picture. Final exams, and the necessary “cramming” ... Baby Day, with all its gayness and tomfoolery — and water pistols . . . all types of conventions ... A. A. Cards . . . distribution of ‘‘The Student” . . . class pictures . . . “fire drill!” . . . Yes, Mr. Galli- ford . . . mock elections . . . Tribble’s . . . S. C. A. and Home- coming elections . . . bus rides, and more come to mind. What would we have done without our marching band, major- ettes, sextette, and, of course, our hard-working cheerleaders, both varsity and jayvee. Putting up “Maul Maury” signs . . . decorating the goalposts . . . band performances . . . stage crew . . . monogram club vs. facultyse mee “sessions” in the general office . . . counselling .. . Yes, Mr. Galliford . .. for our athletes long, long hours of hard practice to give us the many victories we've had to cheer about . chatting in the halls . . . phys. ed., home ec., Gov’t., Pub. Spk., and the list piles up. We were taught to play football by Coach Mills, to play bas- ketball by Coach Ryder and to think by Coach Galliford, our greatest lesson. And we were taught a myriad of other things by a host of helpful teachers. Some lessons came easy, others didn’t. Sometimes we gave the teachers trouble, sometimes they gave us trouble, but we learned and we got to like it. Now we must leave it. We, the Class of ’58, stand at the culmination of our high © school careers. Soon the diplomas will be handed us, and we shall “depart from these ivy-covered walls and go out to face the stark realities of life’, whether in college or in work. If life on our own is to be anything like the bountiful four years we have had at Wilson, then, unquestionably, there are pros- perous years to come.

Woodrow Wilson is a basic institution of instruction, both from the standpoint of faculty and variety of its curriculum. The student who fails to learn has only his own lack of interest a nd effort to blame. We live in a society made up of complex individuals and personalities, and in order to fit into the pattern, it is necessary to be exposed to certain required studies. Because of this, these subjects become a part of any course of study. Wilson has such requirements. Fortunately, much more is offered. Whether a person is anxious to broaden and improve his mind, or become more proficient in the use of his hands, the opportunities are always present in the study of academic subjects or the well- equipped shops in the vocational department. Wilson offers such wide facilities that no school day should ever be a total loss to any individual. In order to keep up with progress in a scientific age, more emphasis is being placed on the study of the physical sciences for those who are able to assimilate the facts. Rec- ognizing the fact that all students are not scientifically minded, the administration is not overlooking the academic field. Two new subjects were added to the curriculum during the past year, Creative Writing and Psychology. The great variety of the curriculum, and the manner in which all courses are presented both emphasize one important fact—Woodrow Wilson is primarily a place of, and a place for, instruction. Representative of our faculty is Mrs. Barbara Oliver. We are equally proud of our entire teaching staff, and selected Mrs. Oliver because of her close connection with the Junior Class. She was born in Fairmont, W. Va., and has lived in Portsmouth since moving here in 1937. She has one sister, and both are graduates of Woodrow Wilson. Mrs. Oliver at- tended William and Mary, both at the Division of Norfolk and in Williamsburg, where she received her degree. She majored in history, and returned to her alma mater, Wilson, as a member of the faculty in 1953. She has been teaching here since. Mrs. Oliver has several hobbies in which she is quite interested. These include music of any kind, teaching, people in general, and sports. The last mentioned is one of her favorites, and she and her husband attend practically all Wilson games, where they may be seen cheering on the Presidents as loudly as the most rabid fans around them. For several years she served as adviser to the Quill and Scroll, a national honorary society for writers, and was actively engaged in directing the destinies of the Junior Class as adviser during the past school year. She has thoroughly enjoyed the work with her classes and organizations, and they in turn, have benefited from their associations with Mrs. Barbara Oliver. Mrs. Barbara Oliver B. B.

BELOW: “The pause that refreshes.” Chapter IV “The meeting will please come to order.” This familiar phrase is repeated over and over hundreds of times during the course of a school year. It is simply more evidence of the fact that opportunities are present outside of the classroom for the individual to become a “more rounded person.” ; One only needs to page through carefully the section that follows to see that there is a broad selection of clubs and organizations to satisfy the tastes of even the most dis- criminating individual. If, somewhere along the line, no respondent note is struck, the fault lies within the person himself. Again, the opportunity is present, waiting the active participation of anyone interested enough to take advantage of it. Those that do avail themselves of active participation soon find out one’s horizons do suddenly broaden out and become more meaningful. The numerous opportunities to exchange ideas; to learn parliamentary procedure; to participate in worth-while projects; to “just belong” to a group—all under wise and able leadership—will benefit anyone willing to give a little part of himself in return. “Help any organization grow, and you will feel just a little bit bigger as a result.” When it comes to organizing we have one of the best in the person of Mr. Paul Brown, band director Chairman of the Athletic Association, and general handyman. Mr. Brown was born in Eubona, Illinois, and came to Wilson in 1936. His musical background is a highly respectable one, including study at the University of Illinois, New England Conservatory, and William and Mary, Norfolk Division. He is an excellent tuba player, an instrument which he played in the Firestone and Miami Symphony Or- chestras. In addition, he was national tuba playing champion for several years. Away from Wilson, where his average work day lasts from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m., Mr. Brown spends a great deal of his time listening to records and participating in musical activities. He also enjoys camping, foreign cars, and helping the youth of Portsmouth. Speaking of youth, Mr. Brown is married, and thoroughly enjoys all family activities with his wife and three children, two boys and one girl. As Staff Sergeant Brown of the Air Force he was stationed at Miami Beach, where he directed the Band Training, School for the Air Force Training Center. About 600 bandsmen trained there for service in band units around the world. While studying in Massachusetts he directed bands for Salem and Beverly High Schools. The future of organizations at Wilson will always be assured as long as we have individuals with the ability and interest shown by Mr. Paul Brown. a oo 2 @) 1Z oO. ft — Lu TURK ALLEN Organiza i iia bss Mr. Paul Brown Bill Smith President j eee Lewis White Vice-President Buddy Burke Traffic Director Sue Sharpe Lunchroom Director ee a Phyllis Johnson Public Service Jackie Holland Publicity Page 100 S.

Page 110 Pp an- merican HELE AIAG This year the Pan-American League has been very active, having had a number of interesting programs and fiestas. Our “Fi- esta de Navidad,” held in December, was the climax of our fall semester. In the spring we presented a play, “Senor Freedom,” to our student body, and later to the Pan-Amer- ican League of Granby High School, Nor- folk, Virginia, after which a reception was held in the patio of our school. A group of us attended the Pan-Ameri- can Day Program at Granby High School, where we had an opportunity to exchange ideas about planning and conducting our meetings. The members of our League, as well as those of the Granby League, felt that study- ing Spanish has been helpful in giving us a better understanding of the youth of the Americas. We also realize the many oppor- tunities in engineering, business administra- tion, and other fields that are open to per- sons who speak Spanish. ROW 1: Mrs. W. W. Morse, Jr., P. Robinson, L.

It is a fact that during each school year the student body has a number of opportunities to participate, either actively or passively, in a variety of events designed to take one’s . mind off the responsibilities of the classroom. It seems that the school year is no sooner under way when, suddenly, all thoughts are turned to Homecoming. That means the selection of a queen and her court, the planning and hurried prepara- tions of a float, the big parade, the game, and the big moment when the queen is officially crowned by Principal R. L. Sweeney. The school year is, indeed, well under way. These events have hardly had a chance to become memories when it is time once more for the Thespians to display their talents in the annual Dramatic Club production. Even before the excitement of rehearsals end, the actual production itself has subsided, the spirit of Christmas descends on the student body. Rooms are gayly decorated, and the climax reached with the Mixed Chorus Assembly. Other highlights follow in surprisingly fast order: music festivals, three one-act plays, science fair, forensics, college day, and open house. Occasionally, an event not anticipated will suddenly appear, and the school year becomes a fuller and richer one as a result. If Jack, in the quotation above, is a dull boy, it is not because he has had no opportunity for play at Woodrow Wilson. Wilson and the whole community suffered a tremendous loss in the passing of Mr. Lylse C. Padden last January. What does one say on such an occasion. Perhaps Mr. Pat Riley best expressed all our feelings in the Eulogy which he wrote for The Student. “In the dark, shadowy world of uncertainty, inhabited by terrible youthful problems, one man held a candle. The monstrous problems disappeared as this man burnt away their hideous mask of confusion and irresolution, and exposed the simple answer that lay beneath. When teachers and administrators had their vision clouded by doubts and questions, they sought this man. Sight was inevitably restored as the light from his candle penetrated the core of the difficulty. Parents often faced obstacles whose tops towered out of sight. This man with the candle had but to anpear to reveal in a formerly shadow- shrouded corner an accessible ladder leading over the obstacle. The man was an educator, and he lived his lecture. He gave the breath of his life to living Christ’s lecture, “So let your light shine be- ONIAWEO 7 NN ba i fore men.” Now the man with the candle has gone to join Him whose a light he reflected. peer gee 2 Like all good educators, he poses a test.

Previous chapters have mentioned the variety of opportunities available on the mental side, but what about the physical? Once more, the student at Wilson is in a very enviable position if he is interested in bettering himself physically. To begin with, the most modern facilities possible are provided in one of the finest physical plants in the South, or the country for that matter. Add to this a competent and qualified staff of instructors and coaches who have the best of material and equipment at their disposal and you have a pattern for physical growth established. All that is necessary, again, is the personal interest on the part of the individual to look for one place where he can fit into the pattern. For those with higher degrees of skill there are six varsity sports in which the individual competes with his classmates for the honor of representing Woodrow Wilson in interscholastic competition. For the past two decades, Wilson’s athletic teams have ranked amoung the best in the state. For those less gifted physically, but still interested in “letting off steam’’, there is a full program of intramurals as well as a variety of gym class activities. If the individual has the urge to grow physically as well as mentally, the oppor- tunities are always present. The athletic program at Wilson ranks with the best in the state, and the person most responsible for its position is Mr. Ernest A. Wild, still affectionately called “Coach” by his many friends. Coach was born in Adrian, Michigan, where he attended high school and Adrian College. He has also studied at Northwestern University, Longwood, and this past term took a course in ceramics at William and Mary, Norfolk Division. He came to Portsmouth 33 years ago as physical education supervisor in the city schools, becoming director of athletics at Wilson in 1939. He is married, and has two sons and one daughter, all graduates of Woodrow Wilson. His interests include athletics, ceramics, and fishing, an activity that he enjoys very much every summer in Colorado, where he and his wife have built a cabin on one of the many lakes near Denver. Many changes have come about in physical education and athletics since Coach came to Portsmouth. He recalls the time in the past when he and one assistant did the coaching of all sports and teaching all gym classes. Today, the staff numbers eight coaches and teachers. His pride and joy is the physical plant at the disposal of students and spectators. The present gym has a seating capacity of 2,500 as compared to 33 years ago when basket- ball was played in what is now the cafeteria at the old high school. He summed up his feelings very simply when asked for a statement. “Wilson has one of the best athletic departments in Virginia. It is improving with age.” Athletics — — — —s lly - Sane — -_ I A ee —————_—— rt ts I — —-- —— - r Se ie 0. —— ree I ES AT rene eet eet e Te Ce — ee .

Bobby Sher, scoring on a 78 yard run in the opening seconds of play and pass- ing to Tommy McCoy for the second score, shared the glory with McCoy, who pas- sed to end Raymond Perry for the final tally in the fourth quarter.

Over 11,000 persons saw, for the third straight week, Bobby Sher score the first time he carried the ball, this time on a 56 yard run before the game was a minute old. He scored again in the second quarter on a 9 yard sweep. Tommy Mc- Coy, on his way to All-Tidewater honors, went over on a sneak in the third quarter and raced around right end on the option for another touchdown in the fourth quar- ter.

He scored on two plunges and a sizeable run down the sideline. The pass was to Frankie Cohn, i who ran five yards for the score. B. B. Hamaker scored on a 3 yard blast in the second quarter.

Bobby Sher made a 58 yard gallop for the Presi- dents’ first score on his first carry of the game.

Instead, the Prexies delighted a Homecoming crowd of over 8,000 by routing 28-14, new cross-town rival Church- land, which volunteered itself for the contest. Tommy McCoy passed to Frankie Cohn for two tallies and then scored him- self on a one yard sneak. B. B. Hamaker, leading ground gainer with 63 yards, scored on a two yard plunge.

McCoy and Raymond Perry helped carry the team through eight successive victories before their depart- Tommy McCoy ure from the squad at mid-term. Predicted not to do very well after their departure, the team, led ca- pably by juniors Robert Shibley, Ronnie Davis, Butch Carto, and seniors Thurmond Gough, and Bob Smith, completed a highly successful regular season with a 17-3 won-lost record. They lost only to Granby, Nor- view in overtime, and Eastern District Champion, Newport News. This record was second only to the “Typhoon” in the district. Seeded second in the Third Annual Eastern Dis- trict Tournament, the President ripped through the Cradock Admirals in the quarter finals, but lost the bid for a berth in the State Tourney by bowing to Granby in an overtime thriller. In capturing the Con- solation Title by beating Norview, the team was awarded the “Sportsmanship Award,” presented by the Hampton Merrimac Club. Whenever any member of the first team left the court, Coach Jack Ryder was always able to find a capable replacement from a host of reserves. Always ready and waiting for action were Jack Dragseth, Leon Bowne, Jimmy Harris, Aaron Peck, Jeff Stap- Miva cierls les, John Vaughan, Dallas Warren, and Buddy Wyatt. Ronnie Davis Shibley was the team’s leading scorer with 313 points for a 15.7 average. Second was Carto with a 14.0 average, while Davis was third with a 11.2 av- verage. Individual honors won by team members were as follows: Butch Carto — first team, All District Tournament; Thurmond Gough and Robert Shibley — second team, All Eastern District Tournament; Ronnie Davis, honorable mention. In All-City voting, Shibley made the first team, and Carto and Davis gained berths on the second team. Shibley won a second team place on the Eastern District team, and Carto earned an honorable men- tion. cP a é Thurmond Gough Jack Dragseth Raymond Perry Bobby Smith Aaron Peck Buddy Wyatt Jimmie Harris Jeff Staples Bowne Managers: Bruce Parker, Robert Benton, Leon William Rich, Ben Jones.

What does one write about such a “dull” section of the book? Ours, we feel, is not a dull section of the book. We are ever so grateful to the merchants and individuals here represented for their generosity and interest. We know that down deep some of them may feel just a little bit that they have made a token contribution, and we sincerely thank them for it. However, with 850 copies of this 1958 President going into that many different homes, to be picked up and leafed through by many eager hands over the years to come, maybe their contribution will turn out to be more than just that. Whatever their reason for signing that advertising contract, the entire President Staff is most appreciative of the fact that they have played a great part in making this book possible. We hope they will continue to show their interest to the succeeding generations of Senior Classes so that they, too, can benefit from the worth-while experience of pro- ducing a book such as this. So, dear reader, skim not through the following pages too rapidly. If you will take time to look beyond the copy on the ads, you will probably find an occasional photo. One of the biggest aids to better living is money, and one person who has had more experience than anyone else in handling that commodity at Wilson is Mr. John Dragseth. As treasurer of the Athletic Association, he has been responsible for all finances in con- nection with that organization. Mr. Dragseth was born in Meldallen, Norway, and came to the United States with his parents in 1902, settling down in Memomonie, Wisconsin. Here he attended high school and studied at State College for two years, after which he taught one year in Waterville, Minnesota. The urge to complete his work for a degree brought him back to State College. After graduation he taught for two years in Dubuque, Iowa. - Mr. Dragseth came to Portsmouth in 1928 and has been here ever since. In ad- dition to serving as treasurer of the Athletic Association, he is head of the Vocational Department. He is married, having met his wife while both were in College, and has one son who earned a “W” in basketball this past year. After all his years of association with sports at Wilson, he had a good reason to be actively interested as a spectator. His job consumes a great deal of time after school and week ends, but he still man- ages to enjoy his hobbies from time to time. These include metal and wood work, fishing, and golf. One suspects that if he had his way he would enjoy nothing more than being in a boat on one of the numerous lakes in Wisconsin.

To Mr. Andrew Landis we dedi- cate our entire work and effort put into this book for his excellent guidance, devotion, and work in making this, the 1958 President, possible. For patience and kind- ness, as friend and teacher, we say, “Thank you”. The 1958 President Staff MR. ANDREW E. LANDIS — YEARBOOK ADVISOR The man who causes the deed is greater than he who does tt.”—Talmud Mr. Landis, who has been advisor to the annual staff since 1958, is responsible for the success of this annual as he has been for many previous ones. Except for the hours he devotes to teaching English and Journalism and working on school publications, he spends his time with his family, a wife, two daughters and a son, and, weather permitting, golfing. Originally from Ohio where he attended Oberlin College, Mr. Landis came to Portsmouth and started teaching at Wilson. After several years, he moved to Church- land and taught there for two school terms, after which he returned to Wilson. This high school has greatly profitted from having so fine a teacher on its faculty and can not deeply enough show its appreciation for all he has done.
