Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1971 volume:

reflections 1971 tiger volume 30 atkinson senior high atkinson, Illinois Time is fleeting by, What is now, only too soon Becomes Reflections of a Golden Past; What was once a camouflage of unseen horizons Now becomes a clouding haze of memories Bound between the pages of this cloth-covered book; Only now do these memories, some dazzled Around Green and Gold, Others flourished in Red, White, and Blue, Remind us of our learning. Education . . . Textbooks . . . Social Awareness . . . Good Sportsmanship . . . These are all multi-faceted mirrors of a Time that is Past And Promises of Future Reflections That are yet to become Reality. Time is moving onward But remember people . . . living. The light changes And we are sobered, Awed by the marvels and questions Of learning and growing. At times we must be serious In seeking to better ourselves. The world calls us To prepare for the future, To meet today's demands With patience and diligence. Yet all is not learned Between the covers of books. This we understand as we move onward, And remember people . . . seeking. We experience, each day, Myriads of feelings. Plunging into a world Not ours alone, We delight In the companionship of friends, In sharing moments Of laughter and relaxation. The eagerness of youth, Bubbling with joyous exuberance, Becomes an integral part of our life. Yet as it passes, Savor each clear, sparkling moment, And remember people . . . together. The world stands before us, Unconquered and challenging. We must call forth All our strength and determination In the struggle for recognition. It is not easy, For we must strain to grasp That which lies beyond our reach. We grapple with puzzling questions And impossible situations. In the heat of competition, We strive to achieve, Anxious, yet exhilarated. One day, we will reach the top, Our goals attained, pause there, And remember people . . . trying. administration .... 31 tim anderson doug bade susan becker gloria carton judy carton ellen causemaker vicki crockett janice de crane craig de decker kathy de may dan de reu joe dwyer linda evans bob Homing rock gentry susan gray 1 f. ted hamer jim heller robbie hoogerwerf nick jennes randy junior The freshmen girls are SOMETIMES silent!

In their many attempts to make the wishes of the student body known, they have displayed unusual skill and ability in bringing about alterations that they believe necessary. As a result, the dress code was relaxed, and the lounge was opened once again. Only through the efforts of these people has the school been refined into a more profitable institution.
