I? Elizabeth City, NC 27909 252-336-2473 President Vice-Presidenf Sanford Whitehurst James Corbett SENIOR CLASS Characters Dignified Seniors Setting E. C. H. S. Time: The day we beat our first^ prints in the sod of E. C. H. S.
Sanford: Walking up to the school that morning made me unusu- ally happy! It seemed as though all the world was free of anything that could mar this happiness. That day I had to pinch myself in order to make sure I was not dreaming!
Freda: As I walked along my memory became like a moving picture machine. When the film was reflected on the screen, we saw pictures similar to these: First, there was the first day of freshman year when most of us looked like Indians or, as though we were going to a masquerade and lacked only the costumes.
Gretchen: Then came our sophomore days which were filled with days of work and yet many an hour of happiness! When we became juniors the most important things to us were the Junior Carnival and the Junior-Senior Banquet, in which we played an important part! We also had the Junior Play, filled with laughter! Secretary Treasurer Betty Jane Leary Gretchen Voeth NINETEEN FIFTY
Jimmy: Then there was the day we first walked the aisles of the auditorium as seniors! At first most of us were frightened, and then we saw our younger classmates looking up at us with a new look of hope on their faces, this thought came to our minds: "We are leaders and we must try with all that is within us to make the best examples for those who have faith and confidence in us!"
Sanford: This is not the end, for we have many more things to look forward to, such as our Commencement Exercises and our lifes' work. Most of us will be happy, but within all of us sorrow will take its place.
Truly our high school days have been happy ones! To those we leave behind we wish even happier days than those we have had! "W'^y^-. AMMEEN ASKEW BASNIGHT ANDERSON AUSTIN BELL ARMSTRONG AYDLETT BERRY ARNOLD BALLANCE BJORK 14 /

"Mojo": Boy, we have come a long way since we were first splashed with per- fume and smeared with shoe polish when we first entered high school.
"Marve": I'm so glad we are through struggling with worms, frogs, hypotenuses, and the Battle of Bunker Hill; but now we'll have to wrestle with chemistry, physics, and advanced algebra.
"Pat": Isn't it wonderful to think that our faces, personalities and characters
adorn the honor clubs, i.e.. National Honor Society, Hi-Y, Tri-tl-Y, and the Quill and Scroll. We have worked hard to make them.
Billy: We surely had a whiz-bang of a junior play!
"Mojo": Remember the hard work and fun of the carnival?
"Marve": And, um-m we danced 'til dawn in swishing-swirling skirts and tuxedos on the night of our Junior-Senior.

The Student Council of the Elizabeth City High School has sponsored several outstanding activities during this year. First of all was the wonderful dance given for the Freshmen on September 3 0. The next was an assembly program entitled "Beachhead for Freedom" which was presented during National Education Week. Everyone felt that the members of the Council, who took part in this program and helped in other ways, did an excellent job in making National Education Week a great success in our school. One of the biggest events of this year was the homecoming game played Thanks- giving afternoon with Flertford at which our council presented a gold cup to the council of Fiertford. Another activity introduced by the council this year which the students seemed to enjoy most of all was the dances which have been held twice a week in the gymnasium during lunch hour. The Christmas Flolidays just wouldn't be complete with- out the semi-formal dance given by the council. It was held December 20th in the gym and portrayed an outside Christmas scene.
Three members of the council, Margaret Ann Jackson, Billy Jennette and Neil
Fienderson, along with Miss Cooper, attended the North Carolina State Student Council

A memorable event is this shot taken from our annual home- coming game. This game was played on Thanksgiving Day. Here we see President Henderson presenting the trophy of friendship.
Always an impressive ceremony is the installation of our new
student council officers which occurs in the late spring of each year.

For some years now your annual has been a member of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association and has grown in beauty, wisdom and content until its ratings are very high.
It is the duty of the editorial staff to gather all material and pictures necessary to compose a good book. The business staff collects all advertisements and tends to the financial end of the book and only through the co-operation of both staffs can the work be done and the book made a success.

78 OUR PLAYERS IN ACTION
This vear our girls' basketball team really made a good showing everywhere they played. As always they demonstrated good sports-
manship which is essential for playing any game. The rules of health
were practiced and the girls turned out to make a fine team known
for its clean, hard playing. These girls practiced each afternoon and
when they played they put their whole selves in the game. They made a fine record of which we should really be proud.
The boys' basketball team has made a splendid record this year. The boys showed hard, fair play in every game. Teamwork must be
their by-word because it seems that they always work together—none for glory, but all for the sport. We are proud of the team and their fine
display of teamwork and skill.

83 The Elizabeth City High School
Glee Club is made up of a group of
boys and girls willing to' give their time and talent to make an organiza-
tion full of school spirit. The mem- bers put forth many hours of hard work for the good of their organiza- tion, their school, and their town. We find that throughout the year ensembles from the club are perform-
ing for civic clubs, school affairs, and out-of-town events whenever they are called upon.
The first concert, "The Christmas
Story in Music," was a great success. A part of this program was also pre- sented for the student body in as- sembly.
Another assembly program, held early in the spring, gained the favor of the entire student body as they presented a burlesque of grand opera.
Probably their most outstanding performance of the year was the spring concert, "Musical Memories of 1950."
Despite the fact that there were many new members who had to be trained the Glee Club has made re- markable progress throughout the year and is steadily climbing toward the top.
