Basketball games have a high attendance record. Great support is put behind the teams.
An enthusiastic love of our school and
afervent desire to see her win in any
competition was sometimes hard to com-
bine with courtesy and consideration for
our opponents. Our experiences at Floyd
High School, both in our Athletic and
Forensic competition, have shown us the
value of sportsmanship and given us the
opp o rtunity to develop this quality in
ourselves.

There's always time for fun,
no matter how serious the task.
ln many ways, our work was
lightened by a little play. In
gym classes there was always
a new game or dance to learn,
in clubs there were projects to
work on, there were class plays
to p r e s e nt , and certainly far
from least, there were the cas-
ual meetings and Hgabbing

ledge, and the sooner a student learns to make
use of this, the better off he will be.

Mr Marshall discusses Senior Scholastics with his
government class.
All seniors are required to pass
M Q government before they can graduate.
The reason for this is that a good,
general knowledge of the way our
national and state governments
operate is essential for a .student to
become a good citizen.
Government p up i l s also study
Senior Scholastics,which keep them
up to date on main events that occur
in our world today.
We Become Better Citizens
Through social studies
United States H i s t o r y is also
necessary for the making of better
citizens. Everybody sh ould know
his country' s h i s t o r y 5 and, too, a
good knowledge of hi s t o r y always
comes in handy for all. Juniors are
required to take this subject.
E c o n o m i c geography students
learn not only about the locations
of all different. countries, butalso
about their economic situations, and
many various details about the
countries. This knowledge is very
helpful.

The Floyd High Band Adds To
The band started the year with
enthusiasm under the direction of
Mr. Jack Kaufman. Members from
the beginning band were promoted
to the high school band.
This year was highlighted for the band when they received their new
uniforms. Here is the last of the group being measured.
26
Having advanced in number, the
band members started out with pro-
jects to raise money for new band
uniforms. New school colors were
voted on by all the elementary and
high schools in the county. This was
done to prepare the band for the con-
s oli d at e d high school now being
planned. The colors chosen were
black and gold.
The band sold candy and con-
ducted atag day in order to help pay
for the uniforms.

of the school for the band. All the
proceeds were contributed for in-
struments.

Here is Rebecca's prize-winning
poem:
SNOW STARS
Stars are falling all around,
Millions of them clot the ground.

White-roofed houses, white-topped cars,
And I shall stand knee-deep in stars.

It is through the SCA that students are
encouraged to show good citizenship and
to conduct themselves in an orderly
manner in the cafeteria as well as during
the change of classes.
This year, being election year, the
SCA sponsored a mock election. The
polls were set up in the main hall and
each student desiring to vote had to pay
a five cent poll tax. The proceeds went
to the SCA treasury.
Another yearly project of the SCA
is to set up a big Christmas tree at the
front entrance of the school.
To become an SCA officer a person
must submit an application form to the
SCA screening committee. This com-
mittee selects the people who will run.

The primary library is kept in shape by the help of Glada Bower,
Shirley Huff, and Marie Moran.
Much c r e dit should be given to the
Library Club for keeping the library in
tip -top order while its sponsor, Mrs.
Sally Dalton, was ill for the entire first
semester.
These members kept the library re-
cords, books, m at e rial s , and files in
shape for easy reference. They helped
other students in checking out books and
finding material. The primary library
was also kept up by these students.
The bulletin board in the library was
put up each time by club members. They
sentabasket of food to a needy family at
Christmas and sponsored a bake sale.
This club is an organization of stu-
dents who are interested in library work,
books, anda well -rounded education

year to have aneat library in the absence
of their sponsor.

The Eaglets had a good year in 1960-
61. At the end of the year they had a 6-4
record. 'The girls put a lot of effort into
their basketball and came out with one of
the best teams that Floyd High has ever
produced. It was an all out team effort
with b ala n c e d scoring and able defense
work by the guards.
Mr. Ellis Enoch has coached the girls
for three years and he has done an excel-
lent job. The c aptain and co-captains
were elected at the beginning of the sea-
son and showed real leadership.
The girls took great pride in
their team this year. The practice
sessions began in October. They
spent many hours practicing and
perfecting their play. This work
paid off, as the record shows.
The Eaglets always show the spectators agood game when they play basketball.
Here the girls are playing a scrimmage game with a nearby school, Auburn.

school spirit and fine sportsmanship were

The cheerleaders each year strive to put
their pep and energy to good use. This
"good use"is always centeredupon the Eagles
