FOREWORD We, the Annual Staff of 1960, present this yearbook in the hope that you will derive enjoyment from it and appreciate the amount of time spent in preparing this book for you.DEDICATION In appreciation, we, the Class of 1960, dedicate this Beaver Tales to Mrs. McNeely who has made our last year of high school the happiest of our lives. We have taken our problems to her and she has always been ready to aid us in any possible way. Not only has she shared our sorrows but our joys. She-has given of her time and effort to guide us along the path to becoming better people. This is just a small token to show our gratitude. Although we as a nation have always been keenly interested in our schools, the launching of Sputnik’ made everyone especially aware of the importance of education. We are beginning to realize that the very existence of our country and its form of government may well depend on our Educational System. Therefore let each Community resolve to furnish its youth with the facilities and personnel so that each one can have the opportunity of developing his powers to his fullest extent--it is only by giving our youth its opportunity that our country can maintain its rightful place in this space-age. Alfons Wier Superintendent A PRINCIPAL’ DREAM .That some Students will do outstanding things. Achieving name and fame, .that all students will live a worthwhile life and have a worthwhile mind, .that their town becomes the best on earth, most free from hate and crime, .because these students came to school here for a few year’s time.

DANCEBASEBALL TALES OF THE BASEBALL TEAM Coach Bob Vanderveen's Eau Claire Beavers experienced a poor season as they were faced by a very tough conference schedule with few returning lettermen. They gained much experience and are looking forward to a very successful season this year with almost the entire squad returning. TOP ROW: Ron Weber, Frank Conkin, Coach Vanderveen, Vern Stubelt.

Mr. VanderVeen, Coach Mike Rapp Bill Smith Dean RadkeBASKETBALL TALES OF THE BASKETBALL TEAM The Beavers got off to a slow start in their 1959-60 season by dropping their first contest with New Buffalo on their home court. The next week they traveled to New Troy where they picked up their first victory of the season. After this victory, things really looked good for the Beavers, but the following Friday they dropped a very close game to the Bridgman Bees. The Beavers then participated in the Holiday Tournament at St. Joseph where they finished in fourth place by defeating the St. Joe Ponies in the first contest. After the tournament the Beavers went into a long losing streak. In every one of these games they have played very good ball in the first half, leading most of the time, only to fall apart in the second half. We are very proud of the boys, because through all the losing, they never stopped trying. FRONT ROW: D. Marquis, L. Schadt, C. Tollas, V. Bradford, L. Rosenbaum, J. Rakauski. STANDING: Coach Kiel, J.
