More students, teachers, and alumni attend the Home- coming Dance and Game than any other school activity. People Were Versatile at BCHS Everywhere a person looks, people can be seen studying, rushing to classes, chatting in the halls, or doing some kind of work for a teacher. After school hours, many students may be seen at the various games and dances which take place throughout the school year. Music-minded students take an active part in band and chorus by presenting concerts and going to various contests. Sports-minded students participate in the many school sports. Others choose to apply themselves to their books. No matter how big or what kind of a part the student may play, he is essential to the stu- dent body and helps make the versatility of the BCHS people. The decorations must go up if we are to dance tonight.

BENTON HIGH SCHOOL HERBERT MUNDELL, Principal BENTON, ILLINOIS May 1961 Students: On behalf of the Scarab staff I would like to present to you your 1961 Scarab. In doing so I sincerely hope that this book of ours will help us recall our past school year in the years to come. May we always remember those happy times we en- joyed together. But may we never forget that tragedy which tempered us, the education we received, or the “friendships which flourished. Our ’61 school year was one of joy and re- morse, and may the one never overshadow the other. Now, in presenting this book, I would personally like to thank all of those both on and off the staff as well as our able advisor, who helped in this book’s production. Students, we give you your book, with the sincere hope that it will measure up to the high standards set by its predecessors You are the judges. Respectfully yours, Janes =, Upchurch Editor 61 Scarab BENTON HIGH SCHOOL BENTON, ILLINOIS SCARAB SUBSCRIBERS BENTON HIGH SCHOOL BENTON, ILLINOIS
