Anacoco High School - Chief Yearbook (Anacoco, LA)

Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1965 volume:

The Old — 1925 The passing of Time means Change The new — 1965 Volume XV Anacoco High School Anacoco, Louisiana Foreword We have chosen “TIME” as the theme for our 1965 yearbook. Every person is blessed with the same number of hours each day . . . success or failure may depend upon how it is used. The clock of time is wound but once, And no man has the power To tell just when the hands will stop. At late or early hour. NOW is the only time you own; Live, love, toil with a will - Place no faith in 'tomorrow' for The clock may than be still.” The Staff Because We Are Grateful We Dedicate This Book to You, Mrs. Bradshaw The students of A.H.S. want you to know that your efforts in their behalf are greatly appre- ciated. You have been happy with us in our successes and understanding of us in our failures. May we always be worthy of the confidence you have in us! Administration •sf “Ours is the only country deliberately founded on a good idea.” ■ i v John Gunther Superintendent's Message Dear Friends: let me highly commend each of you who have made contributions toward the publication of this unique yearbook. This is a most attractive edition and it certainly makes one want to review each page. This publication summarizes the activities of the school and presents pertinent information which reflects the continued growth of your school. You are to be warmly complimented on making it possible for the people in your community to take a look at the many educational activities sponsored during the 1964-1965 school year. It is earnestly hoped that this pictorial history of some of the highlights of the year’s events may point out pleasurable memories and visible marks of progress and achievements. With warmest personal regards and sincere best wishes tor continued success. Sincerely, Curtis Bradshaw Superintendent Vernon Parish Schools We Appreciate . . . W. W. PARKER Principal TROY MORRISON Elementary Principal School Board and Office Staff MONROE SANDERS Board Member these people and their many efforts in behalf of education. The word “time” changes in meaning as it passes in the lives of each individual. While one is very young, time may seem an eternity between holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter and summer vacation. As the child grows older, begins to mature and assume more responsibilities, time begins to gain momentum in its swift passage. Members of the senior class of 1965 now realize the brevity of the past four years as the great day for commencement is so near at hand. So will be your life after high school - the swift passing of time marked by key events in your future. We feel sure you will be equal to the task that TIME brings into your future if you will show the same loyalty and good spirit that you have demonstrated in your last year at A.H.S. My gratitude and best wishes to each person that had a part in making this yearbook a reality. Sincerely, W. W. Parker r n ’ I would not hesitate to say that the United States is the finest society on a . grand scale that the world has thus far uroduced.” Alfred North Whitehead I I I I Nil ftfffiiifi c ' I f J • rf I I f r n ■ Q j-i. :r Faculty w.
