Tuscaloosa l-ligh School is fortunate in having an active and conscientious Parent- Teacher Association. The PTA's budget this year gave generous financial aid to the stu- dent health a n d welfare fund, utilized through our nurse, Mrs. Kelley, for the bene- fit of THS students, The money raised by the PTA barbecue last spring was used to furnish the women's faculty lounge in our new building. The PTA sponsored a Christ- mas dance in the gym, much of the credit for the success of this dance goes to the hard- working hospitality committee under Mrs. Luther Richardson. The members of the band will long be indebted to the PTA for helping to finance the annual band banquet as part of their program to support student activities. One of the most important and yet less obvious services of the PTA func- tioned continually through the school year in Mrs. T. J. Benninger's keeping the people of Tuscaloosa informed of school events through regular newspaper pub- licity. Under the able guidance of Mrs. Karl Perkins, PTA Presi- dent, the many phases of this or- ganization were coordinated in- to a working program th at greatly aided our design for learning both in and out of the classroom.

FIRST SENIOR CLASS T As Freshman we hitched our wagon to a star, incident- ally we hit the moon. We excelled in the Sciences, the Arts, the Languages, the executive branch and the official hall roamers club. Let it not be said that our class was one to pass up the pleasures of T.H.S., There were the Pep Rallies, the ten minute break between classes, and particularly the magnificent production displaying the Junior class's hidden talent. At the price of uncovering talent we were able to present the senior class with a won- derful prom. Among the most cherished memories of the seniors is first word , ordering senior class rings, and Problems of Mrs. Cary. Through the eyes of this grad- uating class we would have made the star, if the moon hadn't been in the way! SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS: Top to Bottom-Buddy Greer, President, Johnny McLaughlin, Vice-President, Mary Jane Pickens, Secretary. SENIOR HOMEROOM PRESIDENTS: Jerry Manning, Susan Washburn, Margaret Ann Waller, Toosie Mustin, Mary Lynn Were ner, Nancy Reefer, Bill McGuire, Jody Far- ris, Mary Jane Pickens. Receiving the Senior rings is certainly one of the big events of the year. Here we see Billy signing for his ring, Mrs. Hard- en handing Larry his receipt, and Jeanefie ' admiring Marilyn's newly acquired ring. It isn't hard to tell that these are very proud Seniors. r s
