Elkins High School - Elk Yearbook (Elkins, AR)

Text from Pages 1 - 58 of the 1953 volume:

'Dedication We, the annual staff, proudly dedicate this book to our student council presi- dent, Coy Showalter. His patience and uncomplaining attitude toward his sum- mer's illness and its after effects, has been an inspiration to the entire student body. Without his understanding and cooperation as our representative, the Elkins High School students could never have accomplished what they have in conduct, sportsmanship, and attitudes among themselves, and toward the fac- ulty. Coy, our beloved leader, we salute you! School faculty Typing Bookkeeping Geometry Junior Sponsor MR. FRED STARR Superintendent Psychology Senior Sponsor MRS.
