Freshmen are welcomed by large groups of upperclassmen and throngs gather to tell graduating seniors good-by. In between are dances, ballgames, and classes — all revolving around a crowd. 6 a A high school is a mixture of emotions. Those who enter know victory and defeat, happiness and sorrow, elation, and anxiety. An outsider sees only a structure of concrete, steel, and brick; but a student knows that CHS is much more. A school is primarily a place of learning. Learning to cooperate, to reason, and to advance until you reach a goal. This goal may be found in a club meeting or a classroom, but more often it is realized during a time of private study. I?

That should get it, sir, says humble freshman Susie McClendon as she completes her first shoe shine. 15 After the formalities of registration, the entire student body turned out for the initiation week of the freshmen. Senior big brothers and sisters were nearby to acquaint the green freshmen with CHS and possibly give them a guided tour of the building. Freshmen were then introduced to social life at CHS as they attended the Freshman Dance which was held in their honor. The yearbook signing party marked the close of a frantic but enjoyable week. The Seniors looked forward to their remaining days at CHS after receiving their rings. As the end of these events drew near, attention was focused on the oncoming activities of the fall.

Membership in the Varsity C Club requires not only the attainment of an athletic letter at CHS, but also a definite spirit of participation and sportsmanship in a member’s school life. This year's Varsity C Club was no exception with the club’s members attaining honors on and off the field. One of the most important functions of the club was its presentation of the Best All-Around Athlete Award. This year's recipient was Mike Fisher, a senior letterman in football, basketball, and track. Behind the Varsity ”C all the way was the active and enthusiastic CHS Pep Club. By organizing such activities as pep rallies and parades throughout the year, the girls endeavored to spark the enthusiasm of the entire student body. The end of the year was climaxed by a recreational night in which Mary Cook, a freshman, was chosen Miss School Spirit.

Graduation took the entire starting five from this year's A team line-up. The B team, made up of sophomores, juniors, and adopted'' freshmen had a successful year under the guidance of Coach Jack Hopke.

It helps the students to explore the world around them. English exploration came in many ways. Freshmen expressed their views through open debate. Sophomores meditated over the works of the ancients. Juniors questioned guilt and innocence in the American novel. Seniors spent many an hour pondering a line of forgotten lore or listening to a student's poems.

Advanced math classes took advantage of new desks featuring logarithms, weights and measures, and trig functions inscribed on top and a new IBM computer. Algebra I and II and geometry students were introduced to modern math and a new course, functional math, was added to the CHS curriculum. Science courses at CHS this year included the usual scenes of experimenting, dissecting, and memorizing atomic weights, combined with concentration and patience. Freshmen sampled the field in the areas of general science and biology, while upperclassmen moved on to more advanced work in chemistry or physics. A number of students entered the annual County Science Fair, and returned to CHS with varying results. Math and Science challenge minds Concentration and brain-racking confusion are only two of the moods found in an advanced math class at CHS. It's going to explode, whisper physics students as they wait for the completion of their experiment. Ugh! Kay Chaffin's expression is typical of a biology student as she gets her first look at a starfish. That's wrong! Debbie Jones points out as Roger Wilson tackles logarithms in Algebra II. Preparing for the day when they will make and manage their own homes, homemaking students study the various areas of this field. The latest in teaching materials aid the learning of new methods and techniques.

Home Ec II students model garments made during a classroom study of sewing. Home Ec is more than just cook Senior Home Ec students Shirley Dean, Brenda Hicks, and Debbie Harwell, display cakes made and decorated in the department.

Also new was the practice of student teaching in the classroom. Previously an experiment, psychology had now become a part of CHS. What would you do if ... Asked such a question one quickly realizes that the journalism class is taking another survey for the TIGER RAG. Journalism serves a double purpose. It provides not only a study of certain aspects of adult journalism but also the publication of a school paper, the TIGER RAG. In order to see journalism put to use in life, the class spent a day in Memphis touring the Memphis Publishing Company, home of the COMMERCIAL APPEAL.

An active junior class worked diligently to create a beautiful prom. To raise funds, juniors operated concession stands, sold sweatshirts, candy, and Homecoming mums, and held bake sales during noon hours. Fifteen juniors received honor roll awards and twenty-eight boys lettered. Seven junior students were chosen to attend Boys' and Girls' State. Juniors were also recipients of drama, home economics, and Spanish awards. Other highlights included ordering senior rings, ushering at graduation, and the climax— Tahitian Holiday.

Junior spirit and originality take the form of a tiger armed with shield and spear on their Homecoming banner. Seniors and their dates enjoy their Senior Sophistication as they dance at the prom given in their honor. As the fading freshmen donned their new title of Silly Sophomores,” they realized the importance of showing an interest in school activities and organizations. Although they were a small class, the sophomores strove hard to prove themselves. Yet their happy-go-lucky attitude set a new pace in students' relationships. On Honor Recognition Day, the sophomores were duly represented. Three received awards for the Academic Honor Roll and ten were given letters among sports. In the freshman-sophomore division of model homeroom, Coach Bethune's sophomore homeroom received this award. Maureen Murphy represented her class at the Sophomore Pilgrimage in Jefferson City, Missouri. WHO'S WHO. First row: Moody, Coppage, Hardesty, Fowlkes. Second row: Edwards, Tipton, Prost, Sharp.

With a doubtful expression but a truly bold air of determination, the green frosh entered their new surroundings at CHS. During their first week, they discovered the role they were to play at CHS: scrubbing the sidewalk, climbing the flagpole, and proposing to some beautiful telephone pole. James Sides and Anna Raburn were chosen as typical freshmen. After the chaos of Freshman Week, they shed their green hats along with their confusion and were accepted as full-fledged students of CHS. 150 Maggie Clark Ricky Clark Larry Clayburn Sharon Coble Greq Conway Claudette Cook Mary Cook Marilyn Cooperman Tanya Cotton Lee Cowan Eddie Cowles Stanley Craig Greq Crismon Paula Croft Dennis Curtis Billy Dale Davis Paula Dodd Diane Dorroh Jeanine Dowell Janie Duckworth Rocky Dunavant Chris Elder Adlai Ferrell Joan Frazho at CHS 151 Wess Gaqe Walter Gibbs DeRenda Gillam Janelda Goodale Jimmy Grant Rothie Harris Stephen Hatch Freddie Hiqgins Janet Hinchey Pierce Hinchey Alonzo Hill Katherine Hill Tommy Hill Mike Holland Jonnie Hood Jonas Hunter Susan Joe Hattie Johnson Tommy Johnson James Jones Sandy Jones Gary Keller Norma Lance Patsy Lane Freshmen are known to scrub FRESHMEN CHEERLEADERS: Randolph, Dorroh, Carmean, Taylor, Buchanan.

We couldn’t have done without you. To Mr. Ralph Clayton and the Pemiscot Publishing Company for letting us dig through their files anytime we needed more pictures. To Mr. Floyd Smith whose patience and understanding supplied us with our photography lessons and pictures. To the Dunklin-Democrat of Kennett, Missouri, for sending us the pictures we needed for the sports section of this book. To Mr. Sam Bishop, the camera bug, whose pictures we couldn't have done without, and for always being there when we needed him. To Mr. James Bruton whose understanding allowed us to be excused from class and meet our sixteen-page deadline. To all the volunteers who helped us with our typing and indexing through the long, hot summer. 162 Co-editors DIANE CANTRELL SUSAN CHAFFIN Literary Staff DEBBIE BRUCE CATHERINE CARMEAN DEBBIE FIS0INS DARRYL JONES JO ANN RHODES JAMES SIDES Business Manager DENISE MERIDETH Business Staff DEWEY COOMER CINDY CRYSLER LISA LETNER KAY MALIN DEBBIE RANDOLPH MARY RUTH THOMPSON Art Editor PENNIE BRANTLEY Art Staff DEBBIE BRODERICK JANE CRYSLER Photography Staff KEITH BOLIN TOMMY JOHNSON PAT MCGRAW TIPPY TIPTON 164 TAYLOR PUBLISHING COMPANY The World's Best Yearbooks Are Taylor-made'
