Fulton County High School - Pilot Yearbook (Hickman, KY)

Text from Pages 1 - 144 of the 1969 volume:

PILOT HICKMAN, KENTUCKY For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 FOREWORD These are the young years, the fruitful years when time means only the day after to- morrow. These are the years of wlstful-eyed beings with tender dreams, but youth is brutal as well as tender, and youth is reality as well as dream. A flower blooms and fades and blows away - and blooms again, according to the season; and in like manner youth exists from spring to spring, for to everything there is a season. We pause to bring forth on these pages the golden moments of time just past. May THE 1969 PILOT serve as a reminder of this season of our youth. F CONTENTS In the west of Fulton County, reared against the sky, proudly stands our alma mater. We have experienced days of working, playing, and learning together. Here we have found inspiration, guidance, and a foundation for a better way of life. From forgotten freshmen fiascoes emerge starry senior successes; girls and boys emerge women and men from the studious cocoon. 6 Mr.Bobby Childers B.A., M.A., Murray State University 10 Principal’s Message You and your class are to be congratulated on your accomplishments at Fulton County High School.

Senior Favor- ites VICKIE HARRIS and DAVID POYNOR, presidents of the two largest clubs at F.C.H.S., showed qualities of capable leadership.

Nancy Jo, captain of the cheerlead- ers, and Don, -captain of the football squad, were inspira- tional to the team and fans because they never lost spirit in victory or defeat.

DON LATTUS and VICKIE HARRIS live by this fa- mous quotation. Hall of Fame LOUDEST AND QUIETEST Selected from the senior class, NANCY PARKER and TERRY BROWN seek peace and quiet.

HEARTBREAKERS NANCY JO JAMES and TOMMY STAYTON, who have caused many tears to be shed, exert their •winning charms on each other. Both students were selected from the senior class. MOST JOVIAL TEACHER In the classroom, MR. BOB STEWART, not only broadens the minds of his pupils with knowledge, but he also adds fun and excitement to the daily routine with his wit and humor.

The delegates learn the fundamentals of local and state government by actually taking part in imaginary elections.

Hard work and long hours of practice were a part of their work. In the fall, the Band presented pre-game and half-time performances at the FCHS foot- ball games. Special parades that the Band participated in were the Banana Festival at Fulton, Ken- tucky, and the Flourspar Festival at Rosiclare, Illinois. The Band marched in Christmas pa- rades at Dyersburg, Tennessee, at Calvert City, Kentucky, where they took third place, at Union City, Tennessee, and at Tiptonville, Tennessee. Amidst the preparation for parades and ball games, two Senior Band members represented the FCHS Band at the Quad-State Band at Murray, Kentucky. These members were Kathy Mabry and GinnyMoss. Producing the pop sound of time, members of the Pep Band have faithfully supported the Pilots at their basketball games. The Pep Band also played during Pep Sessions for the Ma- jorettes to twirl and for the Cheerleaders to do pom-pon routines.

Maybe words can better express our feelings about our coaches. Coach ''A has heightened the spirit of all of his boys and of the student body. He was a star athlete at Murray State University. His skills and knowledge have helped to produce fine Pilot teams. His efforts are tremendously appreciated. Coach Speed is a beginner in the coaching field. This status, however, does not reflect upon his abilities. He also was a star athlete at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. He has intro- duced new techniques that result in a winning team. Coach Speed is determined to use all of his strength to develop a fine team. There is a season. SEPTEMBER OCTOBER NOVEMBER Confusion filled the halls. Freshmen encountered their first day at FCHS.
