The organization was developed in order to mold competent, aggressive business leadership, and to strengthen the confidence of young men and women in themselves and in their work. Most of the members of the F.B.L.A. come from one of the business classes here at Paschal. The club is only one of hundreds located throughout the United States on a local, state, and national level.

Cross Keijs Restaurant WELCOME NATL CHAMPION ' PASCHAL STAGE BAND - - -o- The 1965 Championship Stage Band was honored at a dinner at Cross Keys on July 15, 1965, by the school through Mr. Berry. John Stuart, area representative of Century Records, presents Mr. Phillip Hewett, director, with a gold replica of the band ' s latest release. The Paschal student puts his pencil down, strains his ears, and listens to the Paschal Stage Band ' s soft rendi- tion of a Broadway tune or a shoe-stomping, swinging version of New Orleans jazz. Since its beginning in 1962, the Stage Band has risen to the National Championship, which it won in 1965. It has afforded skilled musicians the opportunity to display their talents not only to those interested in Paschal High School but to all living in the Fort Worth area. The band operates on funds it raises through school presentations and other projects. The contest season began with the the Doc Severinson National Championship in Pampa, Texas, which Paschal won, and then advanced to the Brownwood Festival. Next the Stage Bond competed in the Castleberry Festi- val, defending its 4A Texas Championship, and climaxed the season with an effort to preserve its National Cham- pionship title in the Heritage Square National High School Championship.

R. O L C Trains for Future In the midst of world-wide uneasiness and sporadic conflicts, Paschals R.O.T.C. unit provides a meaningful organization through which students may pursue their military service by demonstrating the advantages of mil- itary life and by stressing the basic fundamentals of mil- itary science. The Corps develops individual patriotism, discipline, leadership, and teamwork through its educa- tional program. Several girl sponsors from the student body assist the R.O.T.C. teams and the Corps projects. An athletic schedule included basketball and baseball games with other Tarrant County R.O.T.C. units. The rifle team, drill team, and drum and bugle corps served as additional outlets for student energies. R.O.T.C. members engage in hand-to-hand combat. RIFLE TEAM: FRONT ROW: Florin, Hart, Ellis. BACK ROW: Marshall, Cox, Stegner. 124 -
