Princeton High School - Tiger Yearbook (Princeton, WV)

Text from Pages 1 - 184 of the 1967 volume:

. PRINCETON HIGH SCHOOL PRINCETON . . . PRELUDE TO PROGRESS AND PROMISE PROGRESS IN PRINCETON can be easily seen in geographic expansion and new buildings, but when we use these forms of progress to illustrate our yearbook let us realize that the greatest change has been not in growing large nor constructing buildings, but in the changed attitude of the people of Princeton. The buildings are merely a means of fulfilling the dreams and the plans that this changed attitude demands. This change in the thinking of Princetonians was stimulated, first, by the budding of a new modern high school, then by the accomplishment of the Soil Conservation Service flood control dams, and finally by the establishment of the North American Aviation and the Forest Products Marketing Laboratory. These accomplish- ments led to others and suddenly we find ourselves thrust into a new era. !jyyi PRINCETON, WEST VIRGINIA A TOWN WITH A PROUD PAST AND A PROMISING FUTURE... Princeton High’s 10th PRINCETON 1967 - —--------- — - A Prelude to Promise PRINCETON 1966 ..............Where the Action Is PRINCETON 1965 .................Happiness Is PRINCETON 1964 .........The Forward Look PRINCETON 1963 - — Days to Remember The themes of Princeton High School’s yearbooks have always been written in the present or future tense—never in the past tense. This year, however, we wish to look back only to review the progress made in the past decade. This year we are commemorating the tenth anniversary of Princeton High. Can you visualize Princeton High as it exists today from this photograph of its birth? In these pictures we see a dream realized. It is a dream that is fulfilled again each day that school is in session. Princeton High School PRINCETON . . THE YEARBOOK IS THE PERFECT INSTRUMENT FOR INFORMING..

We hold fond memories of . . . Class Elections, Senior Privileges, Class Rings, Award Day, the Junior-Senior Banquet, Career Day, College Day, Ballgames and Pep Meetings when Tiger Spirit was boosted with Competition Cheers and' the Cowbell. We are proud of . . . the Homecoming Court, our Successful Football Team, our Victorious Basketball Team, and the members of our Class who have received honors. As Seniors we attempted to excel in Tiger Tradition, striving to become . . . Students of the Month, National Merit Scholarship Finalists, National Honor Society Members, Student Leaders and Club Officers. As Graduation approaches we consider our future plans, yet we begin to appreciate what we must leave behind as the doors of P.H.S. close after us . . . for the last time.

Another year at P. H.S. Yes, it was a wonderful year. The winning float, the Junior-Senior Banquet, our class members who were honored, all these have helped make our Junior year one we will never forget. Now, we are looking forward to our class rings and Senior privileges. We will be the leaders of Princeton High School next year, but we will not forget our JUNIOR YEAR! 49 Steve Adams Marsha Anderson Joyce Arrington Sharon Arthur Judy Bailey 0 Sandra Bailey Wayne Bailey Velma Baldwin Jeannie Ball Harry Barbary Juniors Begin Another Year Melinda Barie Elizabeth Bauguess Kenneth Bauguess Judith Beamer Patricia Belcher Robert Belcher William Belcher Linda Bishop Betty Blankenship Donna Blevins Timothy Blevins Marcia Bohn Drema Boothe Vicki Bouvier Diana Bowman 50 Barbara Breeden Linda Brewster Patricia Brewster Beckie Broadbent Judy Brown 4 Katherine Brown 4 Danny Browning Roger Buckner Rita Burdette Bill Burgess Fred Burns Phyllis Burton Carolyn Caldwell 4 Marie Caldwell Donna Calfee 4 Belinda Carr 4 Peggy Chaffins Alice Chambers David Chambers Charles Chandler 4 Carol Church 4 Andrew Clark 4 Robert Clark Linda Clayton Eve Claytor 4 Leonard Claytor Jimmy Clyburn Karen Clyburn 4 John Coleman Neal Collins 4 51 Richard Collins Danny Compton Carolyn Conner Roger Cordle Darlene Cox Sandra Cox Trent Crewe John Croy Peggy Cruise Donald Cuppett 0 Paul Davidson Gary Davis Karen Dorsey Janice Dove Geraldine Dove Mary Duncan Janell Echols 0 Roger Ellisen Roger Elmore Susie Elmore Ruth England Larry Farley Robert Ferguson Wayne Fink Michael Fink Peter Flanigan Jo Ann Foley Michael Foster Sharon Foster David Frye 52 William Gearhart Lois Gilliard James Glass Joseph Goldston 0 Linda Grist Deborah Hairston Roy Hall ° Linda Hambrick 6 Vicki Hamden 0 Linda Hamrick 0 . . .

With the growth of Concord College, resulting in the overflow of students to Princeton, and with the suburb, Athens, new multi-million Fine Arts Center, Princeton promises to be- come an educational and cultural center for southern West Virginia. Plans for the vocational school call for three separate buildings, containing 71,882 square feet, in which 22 separate subject areas will be taught. If construction begins this summer, the school is expected to be ready by September of 1968. Each of the three buildings will be connected by covered walkways. One building will contain the administrative offices and also some classrooms. It will be a two-story structure facing the old Princeton Road. Behind the administration building will be two other buildings containing storage rooms, office space, and shop areas. A $30,000 Green- house is also included in the original plans. Vocational Classes David Whitt and Danny Kester enjoy their work under the su- pervision of Mr. Stuart Leach in the electrical shop Allen Vest, Jerry Davis, John Williams, and Ronnie Combs proudly display their metal crafts at Open House 67. This class is called machine shop Great men stand on the shoulders of little men. How could we read Shakespeare without the printer and the bookbinder? —Robert J. McCracken These students, Danny Browning, Hardy Rum- berg, Joe Wagner, Charles Abshire, and Jerrell Hatcher are so eager to complete a project as- signed by welding instructor, Mr. Charles Tiller, that they cannot stop long to have picture taken. Students, Charles Abshire and Joe E. Wagner were awarded certificates of proficiency in welding Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. —Ralph Waldo Emerson Leisure is the finished product of efficiency. —Grit Jim Sisk, who won the Vocational Award in Electronics poses at Open House 67, with In- structor Haynes and students, Larry Mitchem and Larry Johson. In the background you may see their work in Radio and T.V. Drafting Instructor, Mr. Gilbert Adkins is shown with students Larry Pennington and Wayne Rob- inette. He who would really benefit mankind must reach them through their work. —Henry Ford 70 America's youth are the nation's future, and with them rests the achievement of goals and the realization of dreams for the years to come. The great re- sponsibility of providing these young people with skill and knowledge neces- sary to successfully meet this challenge, belongs to the men and women in teaching careers.. .the builders of West Virginia's and Princeton's future. Teaching alone, in its majestic integrity, can give meaning and compelling motive to the demand for human rights and liberties, because it alone gives worth and dignity to human personality.

MISS ELAINE KEATLEY - Teachers pictures on pages 70 I AM A TEACHER I work with boys and girls. From many homes they come, The quiet, boisterous, shy, The pretty and the plain. The laggard, the ambitious. And the genius. Each one is different And somewhere in this world Each has his place. And while the final choice is theirs, I can, and must, assist. We must explore together To discover, if we can. Their strengths, their weaknesses - The things that bring them joy. I find in each a different neea; This pretty one. Whom all admire And even envy. Who flits through life with little care. Someday will see her youthful beauty fade. How can I help make ready Against that day? The homely lad Already deep withdrawn into his solitude Beneath whose clever hands Frustration shows in modeled clay, How can I make him see That beauty lies not in the face alone? And he who comes to school Unkempt - with bruises Suffered by abuse from drunken parents - Yet who in use of numbers Exceeds all others I have seen. This one I must encourage and support And, if I can, inspire. Each one unique, Each one roughhewn. It's not enough to teach them all To master numbers, To learn the language of their land. I must not be content when they can show in tests That they are each aware of Lincoln, Or Shakespeare's clever wit. To educate is more than that For as they think, and reason, and believe, So they become. I am a teacher I work with boys and girls And with each one, each day I must use different tools. Today I must be stern and unforgiving That they may learn to be dependable; Tomorrow it may seem the best that I relent. To shape a character I must proceed with skill, with love, With sympathy. And yet, as each day ends I do not know How well my work is done. The complicated human mind Is slowly changed, And frequently its thoughts Are hidden behind the false facade Society demands. My task demands that I be patient, That I believe in boys and girls. That I have faith. - ARTHUR F. BRUHN, president, Dixie Junior College, St. George, Utah. ton High School has been in large measure due to teach- ers like you who have given us the education we need for a promising future. Many years have passed since the day you be- came a teacher of Princeton High School. Through those years, many students have become successful people as a result of your inspiration and guidance. To you, Miss An ice Gott, who treated every student as an equal, and who has contributed many years of educational service to this community, we the Tiger’s Annual Staff take great pride in dedicating our annual of 1967. Much of the progress of both Princeton and Prince- Teacher of the Year Dedication We are all aware of the qualities that a teache expects from and respects in a student; but what are the qualities that a student respects and has a right to expect in a teacher? A teacher should always be patient and understanding. She must look past the mass of us and see us as in- dividuals. She must understand that we have problems, too; and she must be willing to listen any time, any place, and be ready to offer advice on any problem. A teacher surely must be the most versatile person alive; she must be strict yet be able to make learning fun; she must be humorous but not funny , she must be concerned with the academic ac- complishments of her students but also actively support all social activities; she must not only know what she is talking about but must be able to ex- press her thoughts so that all students can understand her; she must not only listen to her students but must value their opinions. She must make her class the brightest spot in a full and interesting day. She must have per- sonally plus and really be in the 'ac- tion . Is it possible? Can any one person be and do all of these things? YES. The seniors of Princeton High School feel that Mrs. Mildred Murphy exem- plifies all of the qualities quoted above and they elected her TEACHER OF THE YEAR 1967 when they wrote these things about her. 73 «TO 7 7 cS Assistant Jjrincipaf JKr. Jeorye 7). Ttea Zey Every great man is always being helped by everybody; for his gift is to get good out of all things and all persons. —John Ruskin A school’s yearbook is the only permanent record of the school year. Newspapers record daily, and weekly events, but the yearbook will be referred to long after newspapers have been tossed away. All across the country, special emphasis is being placed on education. Schools are con- tinually in the spotlight—in newspapers and magazines and on radio and television. Bigger, more modern buildings are under construction, and revolutionary teaching methods are being initiated. Millions of tax dollars are financing these projects, and the public is very interested in seeing how their money is being spent. Any community is anxious to learn about life at it’s local school. The yearbook is the perfect instrument for informing the community of our school’s ac- complishments. In this book we have attempted to cover all chapters of the PHS story—from the classroom to the football field. We have tried this year to expand coverage to include community activities rather than confining it strictly to school events. We have wanted to show not only improvement in our school but in the community that makes our school possible. We feel that this book aptly tells the progress of our school this year, 1967. We would commemorate the tenth anniversary of the building which houses this school by taking time to look not only forward to where future progress will carry us to we would take time to look backward into the history of Princeton High School so that we might have a clearer perspective of our future. Ten years before the establishment of the West Virginia public school system the only school in the Princeton area was taught by Miss Delilah Alexander Byrnside from Monroe Coun- ty. This was the first school in Mercer Coun- ty and was taught in a small, dark, damp basement of a log church. It is not known how long Miss Brynside taught this first school or how long it was used for a school room, but we are sure it was used for a school until a hewn log building was erected on the out- skirts of town on what is now called Lovell Avenue. As a general rule the first school buildings were put up at the communities expense and was built in some old field near the town, from which we get the name Old Field School’’. The first school buildings erected by the State after the Civil War were hewn log buildings, most of which were replaced by frame buildings during the years 1899-1895. The only subjects taught in the old log schools were reading, spelling (writing) and arithmetic. In the absences of paper, slates were used for writing and problem solving. About the year 1890 the Princeton log school was replaced with a two story frame building with two classrooms and a large assembly room upstairs. From 1892 (?) to 1911 the only school re- sembling a high school was located in a small brown stone building located on College Ave- nue. It was a small private denominational (Methodist) school known as the Princeton Academy or The Alleghaney Collegiate In- stitute. In addition to this (high) school the town had by 1911, a public school of four (con’t. on page 147) MRS. JAMES GRAHAM, Secretary 76 MRS.

The Princeton High School Bible Club, Teens for Christ , was organized at the beginning of the '66-'67 school term. This club is an exten- sion of the Bible Club begun at Princeton Junior High a few years ago. The purpose of the club is to establish a Christian witness in the school and to strengthen Christian students. Several visitation projects are being carried on by the Bible Club members.

The Christian Youth Council creates a wider interest in religion, broadens Christian beliefs for the pur- pose of a more applicable sense of brotherhood, and promotes a more sin- cere spirit of interdenominational cooperation. The Christian Youth Council is sponsoring the page in this yearbook representing the Progress Through Faith which is exemplified in our city by the construction of many new churches, some of which are pictured on the following page. Our human tragedy is that we rest our importance on outward props rather than on the inward values. —Brotherhood Journal Christian Youth Council no Cities and communities are founded many times around their churches. Prince- ton's early history follows this plan and since then the churches have played an important part in the continual develop- ment of the town. Today there are some 30 churches in the area, representing 12 denominations. The early history of the Princeton area shows that the first services were con- ducted by traveling ministers who lack- ing actual church Buildings held their meetings in the court house. Pre-civil war days found the primary denomination in Princeton, Methodist. These people are credited with the first church building in the city. 1862 brought the destruction of the building prior to a Union invasion but the Methodists rebuilt their church along with the majority of the town in 1886. This new church was used until the completion of another in 1911. A year later a congregation of South- ern Methodists was organized and in 1916 the Kee Street Methodist Church, South, was dedicated. The first church to be built in the county was a Primitive Baptist Church lo- cated in Flat Top in 1840. Five years later a Baptist congregation known as the Missionery Baptists was organized in Princeton. The first settled minister of this group of Baptists was Matthew Ellison, who con- ducted the first Baptist service in this area and who constructed a church in 1886. The first Presbyterian Church was or- ganized in Princeton in 1879. By 1915 the congregation of Frank Spencer had grown to the extent that a new building was needed. This structure was erected, located on Mercer Street and was in use until the time when the new Presbyterian Church was built on West Main in 1964. Thomas H. Lacy, an Episcopal minis- ter, visited Princeton in 1881 and after a series of lectures five members were con- firmed. By 1890 the Episcopal Church had been erected and today is the only origi- nal church standing in the city. The first Christian Church in the coun- ty was organized at Goodwin's Chapel. A few years later, the increase in members led to the construction of an additional building which was dedicated in 1929. The Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Princeton and its construction was cred- ited to Olivia, of the Sacred Heart of Bluefield. By 1912, J. O'Connell, a native of Wytheville, Virginia, had a working con- gregation in town. The Pentecostal Holiness Church was begun in 1912 and a church was erected in 1917. In 1934, the Salvation Army estab- lished a mission on Fifth Street and in 1950 completed and occupied the mission on Princeton Avenue. Additional churches were built in the area as the various denominations grew and new ones were added. Today about nineteen area churches belong to the Princeton Ministerial As- sociation, an organization designed to promote cooperation between tne various denominations in their activities. this is the gift that can't B€ Bought, it must come fRom the heaRts of men By oememBeRing to keep the tRue meaning of chRist alive thpoughout the yeaR. PROGRESS THROUGH FAITH CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE SACRED HEART CATHOLIC CHURCH FIRST CHURCH OF GOD Fellowship of Christian Athletes FCA is a movement to confront athletes - and through them, the youth of the nation - with the chal- lenge and adventure of following Christ in the fellowship of His Church The Fellowship of Christian Athletes had its begin- ning in 1955. In the 10 years which have followed its birth, the FCA has experienced a dynamic growth. It is an organization whose membership ranges from the big- gest names in the world of sport to unknown athletes. But the FCA represents more than an organization; it rep- resents individuals striving to find and meet the daily challenges of Christian discipleship. It represents ath- letes finding the greatness and the purpose of life as they draw closer to Christ as they reach out to help others to find this same greatness and purpose. 112 PRINCETON HIGH SPORTS Our Most Important Athletic Triumph in 1967 — Victory Over Beaver Princeton triumphs over long-time rival, Beaver, in the Sectional Tournament with a score of 59-54.

The old Princeton Academy was discontinued in 1911 when Princeton held a special bond election to appropriate $50,000 for the erection of a new public high school. This was the birth of Princeton High School, originally known as East River High. It was built at the present site of Mercer School. Sometime during the Spring of 1913, the elementary and secondary education were combined in the new building under the direction of Mr. W. A. Anderson, principal. The high school occupied five rooms on the third floor of the institution. In 1914, the first class graduated from East River High School. There were four members in the graduating class. By 1921, however, crowded conditions required a separate high school building. Supported by another bond issue, this building, which was first occupied in the fall of 1924, was built at Eight and Straley. In 1924, the name of this building was changed from East River High to Princeton High (now known as the Princeton Junior High). Mr. B. E. Kimble was principal at that time. This school originally accomodated students in grades o e through twelve, but in 1924 it was changed to accomodate only grades nine through twelve. There were no school buses ; . these early years, consequently students walked from Pisgah, Glenwood, and Ingleside. The first years of the new school must have been a welcomed one for boys, as they were out- numbered by the girls two to one. There were 323 students enrolled. The list of extracurricular activities and courses of- fered were almost identical to those offered today. This building served for 35 years. Then in 1957 Princeton High School, with its 31 teachers and 775 students under the leadership of Mr. Melvin McClain, Prin- cipal moved into a new million dollar building located on a site of approximately ten acres in northwest Princeton. The normal capacity of the present structure is 1000 students. Provisions have been made in the design and mechanical equip- ment to permit expansion. The present structure has a floor area of 76.685 feet, with a modern auditorium and an adjustable gymnasium. Princeton High School now accomodates about 900 students, offering commercial, vocational, and college prepa.atory courses. Plans are now being made for a new school bond election which include a proposal for a new Princeton High at the cost of approximately one and half million dollars. This school would presumedly be located near the new track field and the new vocational complex pictured on page 67 of this book. This building would give Princeton an educational complex that would rival any American high school in a city of similar size. 1967 7-9fS C census SENIORS..............275 JUNIORS..............250 SOPHOMORES...........325 VOCATIONAL............25 FACULTY...............43 Pnncetan.

Our community's really going places... physically, financially, educationally, in- dustrially.. .and the future has never looked brighter! We've made great strides over the years, but none compared to what's in store in the future! We're proud and happy to be a part of this exciting growth and change, serving a fine community with integrity, to the best of our ability. As Princeton grows so grows its suburbs. Progress in the coun- ty is progress for Princeton. Mercer County's new Armory Building is the scene of many of Princeton's athletic defeats and triumphs. Progress in Tourism, a promise for the Princeton area, is here exemplified by Sky- land Inc, located on the outskirts of our county. This aerial view represents only one of the many new plants- and industries, for both production and research, which have appeared on the landscape in and around Princeton in the past decade. This map illustrates only one of the new multi-million dollar shopping marts and plazas being planned and in the process of being built close to our town. The Mercer County Airport and many new and improved highways serve as life lines, bringing promise of growth to our city in the future. The trend is up! As always when people work together with a will to do and to succeed, our community shows a record of development and accomplishment. As always, Princeton High will join in making sure that the educational needs de- manded by such progress are being met. There will be no great society without great men and women; and that after all is the purpose of Princeton High School. We need a big aim and big decisions and discipline to fulfill it, and our school is producing the men and women who will make those deci- sions and who will be willing to pay the price of great change. Landmarks of Promise A yearbook is a his- tory book! The themes of Princeton's year- books have always been written in the present or future tense. This year, to commemorate our 10th anniversary, we paused to glance backward to our beginnings. We have, through pictures and words, attempted to il- lustrate the progress in our school and in the city of Princeton in the past decade. Our pictorial essay presents a progressive school in a progressive city, in another decade of progress. What will Princeton be like in the next decade? What progress will be made? The promise is unlim- ited, the possibilities are unknown. Some dreams are even now being realized; others are in the plan- ning stage; but whatever the future of our city, one may be assured that the people pictured in this book will be a part of that progress. It is our sincere hope that our efforts in producing this yearbook will play some part in bringing our school and community closer together.
