Faculty ................. 6—9 FOREWORD We, the class of 1961, will leave this high school with the honor of being the first class to enjoy our high school to its fullest extent. We are the first class to complete our last three years of public school in the new Columbus Senior High School. When we leave its halls, we will enter into a world of progress. Today our world is growing immeasurably: not only in terms of space, rockets, man-made moons, and space suits, but also in terms of knowledge. In these days, our high school education is only the beginning of our knowledge. Through more formal education and by our everyday experiences in the future, we will have a basis for living in the world of tomorrow. Therefore, we, the Senior Class of 1961, present this annual to you with the sincere hope that you will recall, through these pages, many happy memories of Columbus Senior High School and the Senior Class of 1961 as you move forward with the progress of our world.
