Pew administrators ever gain the love and respect that Warren Jones and Doug Adams have among Elston's students and alumni. They were men who yielded to change yet had two unyielding princi- ples in their belief in their school and their country. As many schools slowly became too sophisticated to cheer for their teams. Elston retained her spirit. Much of this was due to the pride that Mr. Jones and Mr. Adams have always had in Elston. A pride which is unafraid to go before the student body and lead a cheer or in the case of Mr. Adams. take on two full time jobs; that of a basketball coach and an assistant prin- cipal. While other schools have given up the pledge because of its Meaning- lessness. Mr. Jones and Mr. Adams have insisted that we remember our country and Pledge Alligence to her each morning. For many this patrotism is rather old fashioned but for Mr. Jones and Mr. Adams it was a part not easily erased by the fickleness of pre- sent thought. Both Mr. Jones and Mr. Adams were demanding individuals. They demand- ed excellence from students. faculty, and themselves. This is why they were idolized by so many; they taught stu- dents to make and reach goals. Their spirit of excellence has become part of Elston and shall remain a part of Elston as long as Elston lives up to her motto I WILL. Mr. Jones. l963. Mr. Jones. l960. Mr. Adams, l963.

hange is often a painful pro- cess and for the students who were inconvienced by last year's construction, change was very painful indeed. First many students were thrown out of their Science and English classes during the second semester, which es- pecially hurt the Chemistry students who had to finish all their labs before leaving. For several weeks students were seen walking aimlessly about. looking for their lost classrooms. Then there was the endless drone of saws. pOunding of hammers. and yell- ing of construction workers. Class- rooms usually plagued with the noise of unruly students were now immersed in the scunds of men at work. Finally, to make room for the new Physical Education building there was the demolition of the student parking lot, which made parking near the school as difficult for students as get- ting the car from their parents. And as ., the jack hammers began to eat the I 't' Em as parking lot. many students asked, Is it rm -...-,.... nuwwmw w worth it? Yet the head start that the con- struction workers received during the Debris shows the rebuilding process. Dreams on blueprints become reality on land. -1.- .--- .- -.. ..,.. J Few: Wt second semester enabled them to complete the job before school began in September. And the beautiful new Science rooms. as this year's Science students will testify. are well worth the problems construction braught last semester. Last remains of a once heavily used Chemistry room await the pitch. The wrestlers grab new facilities. A new pool has hopes of being finished. Construction 9
