Y B D E A D R I 6 C 0 A 0 T K 1 0 a Scholarships Won By Class Of '70 Future Homemakers Hold Last Meeting Webb is certainly proud of its Class of ’70. Many seniors have re ceived scholarships from the various schools of their choice. Some of those who have been a- warded scholarships are as follows: Frank Heilema has received the Au brey Lee Brooks Scholarship and plans to use it at N. C. State Uni versity ; A1 Williams and Tommy Hobgood also have received scholar ships at N. C. State; Harry Dixon received a full scholarship for study at Duke University; Julius Johnson has been awarded a scholarship from the R.O.T.C. program; and Bernard McNeil has received a full grant for study at N. C. Central University. Though the boys have done ex tremely well, they have not outdone our girls. Linda Silver has received a scholarship . from the University of N. C. at Chapel Hill. Wanda Dickerson, Bonnie Wilkins, and Joan Roberson have received scholarships from East Carolina University. Glenda Currin and Kitty Lee both received scholarships from Meredith College. Along with these are oth ers which will be awarded later. So, it looks as if the Class of ’71 will have a lot to live up to. Following the meeting F.H.A.’ers indulged in a variety of activities including softball, a balloon race, and other games. The afternoon ended with a cook-out. As the F. Hj\. ’69-’70 year ended, it appear ed a complete success in every way. For months, one thought has been uppermost in the minds of upper classmen—the Junior-Senior — that magical last fling before our Seniors are gone forever. To Juniors the Prom means work — decorations, food, programs, invitations, enter tainment—scores of plans all aimed at making the 1970 Junior-Senior the greatest ever. On May 23, all of our efforts were rewarded. Juniors and Seniors flocked to Webb school and enter ed into a land of the old West. Webb cafetorium was no more. In its place were reminders of a cow- punchin’, riproarin’, horse-stealin’ age of the past. Refreshments co ordinated with the Western theme. A short program depicting Can-Can dancers and gun-slingers was en joyed by all. Music was provided by the well-known Catalinas. Special thanks must go to Mr. Tillotson, our Junior class advisor, for making this great dance what it was. We are also grateful to many other teachers and students who con tributed their valuable time to the enormous job involved. I think we can safely say that this was THE GREATEST Junior-Senior Webb has ever seen. NANCY FINCH Nancy Named For Month Of May Filling the spot of Student of the Month for May is none other than our zany, but lovable Nancy Finch. Nancy has been very active in many of Webb’s various clubs dur ing her four years of high school. Among them are the French Club, Science Club, the F. T. A., the F. H. A., and the Monogram and Pep Clubs. She has contributed to both the Wildcat and the Spectator. Very important in our sports di vision, Nancy has . served as a Var sity Cheerleader because of her un failing spirit, ever cheering them on. The Class of ’70 has, for four years, chosen Nancy as a represen tative in the Homecoming court. Congratulations.

The Seventh Annual Athletic Banquet was held on May 6, 1970, at 7 o’clock in the Webb Cafe torium. For those of you who, do not know, what an athletic banquet is, it is the time at which the outstanding athletes are rewarded for their abilities and achievements.
