These people are the ones that make it possible for the little red schoolhouse to continue to exist. This group consists especially of our parents, our taxpayers, and also of our school board members. The 1955 Osky Wow Staff would, therefore, like to dedicate this edition of the yearbook to them as a symbol of our thanks, and also to our faculty members, all of whom have made our education possible. .....Helen Leedy ..Kenny Shumate Grace Plummer .Ruth Washabaugh __Glenna McNeer Page Band ................................ 72 Dedication ............................ 1 Faculty ............................... 5 F.F.A..................................84 Freshmen .............................52 F.T.A.................................85 Janitors .............................92 Juniors ..............................35 Junior High...........................58 Junior Play ..........................77 Hi-Y..................................80 Library Staff ........................87 Office Staff .........................87 Osky Wow Staff........................88 School Board.......................... 4 Seniors ..............................16 Senior Play ..........................76 Sophomores ...........................46 Sports ...............................94 Stage Managers .......................92 Student Council ...................... 4 Tri-Hi-Y .............................78 Ushers ...............................93 Editor-in-Chief.......

They were chosen for this honor by meeting the requirements of a citizen such as: Obeying rules and regulations, preparing assignments, respecting all teachers, participation in activities, courtesy to all, promptness, dependability, and honesty. Congratulations to these two outstanding seniors that have proved themselves worthy of their honor. 1 °neer -trat CX. Orouj That Dand y ra.c.t be £ We have joined the ranks! We have become upperclassmen. We are the Junior Class of 1954-55 and are mighty proud of ourselves too! This year we elected as our officers: Larry Claxon, President; Bill Steele, Vice-President; Jennie Lou Mapes, Secretary; and Paul Perry, Treasurer. We've participated in all types of school activities including chapel services, assemblies, and athletics. We could have done very little, however, without the guidance of our class advisor. Miss Mary Lucas. Under her capable direction our class play became a smash hit and the Junior-Senior Dance was a huge success. A fitting climax to this year was the investment of a large number of us into the National Honor Society. We are now looking forward to our Senior year, but we will never forget the fun we had as Juniors.

We couldn't have had half as much fun if it hadn't been for our advisor. Miss Roberta Grimes, who did a wonderful job. We were glad to have Nancy Harless, one of us, selected as Skeleton Ball Queen. Our officers all did a fine job. We are all looking forward to our Junior year and to all the activities offered to us, and we hope we have half as much fun next year as we have had this year. iiMism First Row, left to right: Harrison, Denny, Brodess, Farrar, Hubbard, Coyan, Fisher, Johnson, Boland.

We have been waiting for this time ever since we can remember. Now that we are here, we certainly are having a good time out of it. Our Freshman year has been a huge success. We had a very nice Freshman Party, and many of us took part in the high school assemblies and chapel programs for the first time. Our years to come will be nice, but we will always look back on our Freshman year as something a little special.

This is Lewis's last year and he will be greatly missed in the future. Stepping into his place will be Bill Dunn and Roger Eanes. This is Bill's second year and Roger's first year as assistant drum majors. The performances of these three boys certainly add much to the beauty and perfection of our band. The band officers for this year are as1 follows: President, Katy Goodwin; Vice-President, Jim McNeer; Secretary-Treasurer, Dallas Hartley. Members of the band council are: Jennie Lou Mapes, Beverly Jones, Lewis Davis, and Bob Swaim. ROGER EANES BILL DUNN Flutes: K. Goodwin, J. Jenkins, B. Lego, J. McGoon, S. Morris. Oboe: M. Davis.

The Future Teachers' organization is rather new in Jackson High School. It consists of a group of students interested in the teaching profession. Requirements for college entrance, methods of teaching, and a general discussion of teaching are among the topics used in the meetings. Each member is supposed to get a chance at student teaching sometime during the year. Mr. Gomer Morris is the faculty advisor of the organization. The office staff is made up of a group of hard working girls who have agreed to do some of the leg work in the high school. To do this, they have had to give up their study halls and everyone agrees they should have a vote of thanks. Pictured are: (from left to right) Marsha Carlisle, Janice Wiseman, Virginia Foster, Ruth Washabaugh, Janice Davis, Judy Winjum, Jennie Mapes, Emily Evans, Sonja Bluebaum, Janet Brown, Pam Mullins.

Nancy and her court should be congratulated for the wonderful job they did at campaigning toward making the Skeleton Ball a huge success. CUSTODIANS Two men who aren't seen parading in the halls all the time, but two whom we would have a hard time getting along without are our custodians, Mr. Vanfossan and Mr. Freeland. These two men do a tremendous job every day of the year. If anything goes wrong with any object in any room, it is their job to fix it. The job of keeping the furnace going is a big job in itself. This is just one of the many tasks these men have. Our congratulations go out to them as they do such a fine job for us. Left to right: BILL FREELAND, MILLER VANFOSSAN STAGE MANAGERS The job of putting up the scenery on very short notices sometimes goes to the stage managers. These boys do anything there is to do backstage when there is an assembly or concert program going on. Not everyone knows just how to operate the public address system. This is one of the stage managers' jobs. These boys are on hand at all times to open and close the curtains. They are very important figures and our thanks go out to them for their part in our school programs. Left to right: BOB MILLER, FRED LIVESAY, DAVE WARNER, MURLE WILSON These boys who serve as ushers certainly do a wonderful job at assemblies, plays, concerts etc. They are under the capable guidance of Mr. Russell Jones. 1st Row: E.

The hard work and determination of football Coaches Slaughter and Keadle made it no surprise when head Coach Slaughter was named Coach of the Year of the SEO League. This was certainly fitting as Jackson won the coveted Championship for the second consecutive year. Coach Keadle completed his first year as head basketball coach, by bringing Jackson through to a second place tie in the league. With the success of our coaches came the high spiritness of the team, leading them to admirable honors. 8 83 83 Uc °° o CHAMPIONS 54 First Row: Larry Williams, manager; Delbert Hensley, Paul Collier, Larry Claxon, Bob Exline, Bill Boroff, Jim Greene, Jerry Waulke, Elvin Johnson, Bill Steele, Larry Schoeblock.
