THE BEARKAT BURKEVILLE HIGH SCHOOL Burkeville, Texas FOREWORD Carefully gathered within these pages are our treasured memories of class- mates, teachers, activities, and all that has been a part of our active school days of 1962-63 in Burkeville High. As we publish this edition of the BEARKAT, we are proud of our collection of memories. As you leaf through the pages, we hope you will relive these experiences as we have while compiling them. We look at our past and then into our future, realizing that gone are the yesterdays but the sun dawns on a new tomorrow. “ We hope that this illustrated history will provide you with a deeper under- standing of the true character of Burkeville High School and of the people with whom this book is concerned. klOUftcu dj-a -k jQ TABLE OF CONTENTS TITLE SENIORS FOREWORD JUNIORS CONTENTS SOPHOMORES DEDICATION FRESHMEN STAFF ELEMENTARY MESSAGES FAVORITES BOARD OF EDUCATION ATHLETICS FACULTY ORGANIZATIONS EMPLOYEES ACTIVITIES ADVERTISING DEDICATION To our mathematics teacher and high school principal, Mr. Bur- den Pulliam, we proudly dedicate this volume of the BEARKAT. Be- cause of his honesty, sincerity, and friendliness, he has won the faith and respect of the student body and the teachers. His guidance, straightforwardness, and interest in the student body have made him an inspiration and a friend to everyone. We know there will always be a place for Mr. Pulliam in the fu- ture, for he is well suited to this statement by Thomas Jefferson, A man who qualifies himself well for his calling, never fails of em- ployment. ” ANNUAL STAFF — STANDING: Mrs. Veigh Miller, Diane Skelton, Lou Thomas, Sharon Lewis, Jeanette Marshall, Donna Smith, Norma Clark.

Judy Clark Dor leen Boyd SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE The past editions of the BEARKAT have been editions of which we have been proud. I am confident that this publication will be as representative of our school as those of the past. I would like to congratulate not only the pres- ent staff and advisor, but also those who have been responsible for the fine yearbooks of the past. The challenge of higher learning, adventure, and new worlds to conquer lies immediately before the students of our school. May these challenges be met with courage, faith, and steadfastness of purpose. Sincerely, 1 3 PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE To the Annual Staff and Sponsor: I wish to express my sincere thanks for making the 1963 BEARKAT of Burke- ville High School a wonderful success. I challenge all students to accept responsibility, to do today’s job today, and to seize each opportunity as it comes. As principal, I extend sincere thanks to each student, teacher, and em- ployee who make up the school family for an outstanding school year. May the future hold success in store for each person who has helped the Burkeville School program this year. Sincerely yours, BURDETT PULLIAM Mr. W. B. Miller, Superintendent Mr. Allen Erwin Mr. T.
