ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY TOMORROWS FUTURE DEPENDS UPON TODAYS EDUCATION MR. CHARLES McMURTRY SUPERINTENDENT MR . GROVER BIGGS TRUSTEE MR. CHARLES KENNEDY PRINCIPAL Education: the knowledge, skill and development gained through instruction and training D. Webster Today the student must no longer be a passive agent but an active individual. The function of education is to guarantee the fullest all-around growth of one ' s self. The end of education is not the individual who had ac- quired a mass of information, much of which he will forget, but a united personality, socially active and con- tributing his best to society. It promotes the development of social aims and purposes because he learns to be critical and open minded, recognizing his duties as well as his responsibilities. Education encourages democracy ' s ideal--the realization of individuality. MR. MILLER B.S. Ball State U. Typing Shorthand Office Practice Business Law Senior Class Sponsor MRS.

Electing class officers in September officially began the year ' s activities. Many of us participated in athletics, clubs, and other activities. Everyone kept busy trying to make this year the most exciting of our high school years. Doing homework, filling out our college applications and participating in our class plays, Bobby Sox , The Half Hour , and A Date for Bobby Sox , kept us busy. The fitting of caps and gowns, and the ordering of calling cards and invitations began our pre-graduation activities. The Senior Prom made us realize that graduation was almost here. Baccalaureate, May 22, and Commencement, May 27, were the concluding activities for the Class of 1966. As we leave our high school days behind us, we take the memories of four worthwhile years of educa- tion combined with many fun-filled times. to SENIORS “66” Marcia Blair Portage 1; Jackson 2,3,4; Student Council 3; Booster Club 3,4; Senior Play 4 Robert Fiscus Jackson 1,2, 3, 4; Basketball 1,2,3; Cross Country 3,4; Senior Play 4 Rosa Brubaker Jackson 1,2, 3, 4; Jacksonian 4; Class President 1,2; Class Treasurer 4; Booster Club 1,2, 3,4; Librarian 1,2,3; Senior Play 4; Cheerleader 4 Terry Gebert Jackson 1,2, 3, 4; Student Council 1; Baseball 1,2,3; Basketball 1,2; Track 1; Booster Club 1,2; 4-H 1,2,3 II FUTURE HOLDS VARIED VOCATIONS Cheryl Hale Jackson 1,2, 3, 4; Jack- sonian 4; Class Treasurer 2; Class Secretary lj Student Council Vice Pres. 4; Booster Club 1,2, 3, 4; librarian 3; Senior Play 4 James Jaeger Jackson 1,2, 3, 4; Jacksonian 4; Student Council 2; Student Council Vice Pres. 3; Student Council Treasurer 4; Booster Club 1,2, 3, 4; Basketball 1; Senior Play 4; Chorus 1,2,3; Band 1,2 Joan Howard Pemberton 1; Jackson 2,3,4; Class Secretary 4; Librarian 3; I.C.W.A.

We, the GREAT CLASS CF 1966, in our various states of mind, will to Mr. Larry Miller the best of luck in his future years of teaching. We wish to thank him for being our class sponsor, and putting up with our out-of-school antics. They said it couldn ' t be done; but we did it! The job of producing a yearbook is not easy, and too many people take for granted the book they receive. This year as you skim through the book you will notice various changes and an increased number of pages. This year many hours and sleepless nights were spent thinking of new ideas to make this JACKSONIAN bigger and better than before. In addition to the yearbook staff, there are other people who deserve credit for their time and trouble. Our appreciation goes to Mr. Charles Kennedy for his cooperation and assistance. We wish to also thank Mr. Larry Miller, our sponsor, for his help with the selling of our ads, and with managing the various details involved. There are many who must go unheralded here, but not because of any lack of appreciation. There were teachers who allowed us to use their classrooms and facilities, students who interrupted their schedules to help on projects such as County Tourney, and various dances, and even those who just stopped in to give an en - couraging word or smile--all have an integral part in this publication of the 1966 JACKSONIAN.

We started our Junior year wrth the receiving of our class rings-the symbol of an upperclassman. As Juniors we no longer green freshies inbetween Sophomores, but experienced and responsible upperclassmen. We met many new academic chal- h T“ participated in new realms of enjoyable experiences during the year in our sports and club activities. n ,,, 8 r „ eqUlrement ] S of our academic work, we studied the problems faced by the Romans in Shakespear-s p y, Julius Caesar, worked diligently on our term topics, and completed many difficult assignments.

We ' re no longer just the beginning Freshman--we ' ve progressed one step farther on the High School Ladder. We have advanced in the knowledge of our world from the early times to the present. Some of us found ourselves working many geometric problems dealing with congruency, theorms, and ratios. Others chose to build their major around general business or home economics. Along with our academic courses many of our fine athletes have spent hours in practice to better their skills. While the boys were out on the floor or on the field the girls were cheering them on to victory. Our extracurricular activities included a Halloween Dance and a Fish Fry. The money we received from these projects went towards our class trip. A main event in our Sophomore year was the ordering of our class rings, which was the first big step in becoming upperclassmen. Next year we will be planning for the Prom and working towards our Senior Class Trip. Now, we hold the memories of all the fun we ' ve experienced in our first two years at J.H.S. 22 SOPHOMORES 23 CLASS OF “69” MOTTO: To be rather than to seem COLORS: Royal blue white FLOWERS: White roses and Blue carnations OFFICERS: President John Beschinski Vice President Joellyn Lively Secretary Elizabeth Erickson Treasurer Becky Babcock FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY Look as you may, you ' ll see no ' 69 greenies in our hallowed halls come next September. That bewildered look that immediately classified us in the eyes of the upperclassmen has gone. We have survived Algebra, English, grasshoppers, and German I. We even had our names on the Honor Roll. Our fondest memory is, of course, Freshman Initiation. Dressing in burlap sacks, wearing a catalog belt, and carrying a pacifier will long be remembered. Dodging Sophomores and bowing to those we met all were a part of our initiation into high school. We soon learned to adjust to high school life and recognized the responsibilities and fun that laid ahead. We elected our first class officers: John Beschinski, President; Joellyn Lively, Vice-President; Elizabeth Erick- son, Secretary; and Becky Babcock, Treasurer. We entered the social whirl of high school students by attending stag and couple dances and cheering for our team. We sponsored a Sadie Hawkins dance and held a Fish Fry during the year. The money received from these projects goes toward our Senior Trip. Towards the end of the year we gave the Sophomores a return party held at the Dunes State Park. This year has been one of new experience, new ideas, and new challenges. We look with anticipation on the coming years of high school at J.H.S. We have fond memories of our Freshman year that has so quickly gone by. 24 FRESHMEN T. Adams K. Bachman T. Balon G. Bates D. Biggs J. Chelf C. Christiansen L. Collier K. Firanek K. Fiscus K.

Students be- come accustomed to dissecting animals, identifying insects and plants, operating a microscope, and learning how the human body functions. Home Economics Home Economics is the theory and practice of homemaking. Modem Living and Home Nursing presents the young homemaker with house- hold problems and child care. Clothing offers girls the oppor- tunity to learn about different fabrics and to sew their own clothes. Those in cooking classes learn to prepare balanced meals and set proper place settings. Geometry Geometry is a branch of mathe- matics that deals with the mea- surement, properties, and relation- ships of points, lines, and angles, surfaces, and solids. Students given a proper set of facts, can prove whether or not two triangles have the same shape or size. Ways of finding the sizes of angles, lines and the areas of various ob- jects are also discovered. Government Economics Government is the study of the organization through which our political unit exercises authority and performs functions which is usually classified according to the distribution of power within it. With the current world crises shaping the lives of future citizens of the world, it is becoming more imperative that we understand the problems that confront us. Chemistry Chemistry is the science dealing with the composition of materials and the changes in composition which these materials undergo. Balancing equations, performing experiments, and thinking in terms of valence are among the activities of chemistry students. Algebra II Algebra is a generalization of arithmetic in which letters repre- senting numbers are combined according to the rules of arith- metic. Mastery of mathematics is dependent on a sound under- standing of Algebra. Because of its importance in modern living Algebra is studied in schools and colleges in all parts of the world. Latin The student of Latin learns to derive the meanings of English words from the related Latin, as well as to appreciate Roman civilization as a source of many influences in modern life. He gains a background in grammar and vocabulary that will help him learn living languages. U.S. History Historians relate, not so much what is done, as what they would have believed. --B. Franklin U.S. History is the study of the development of our country. Students gain in the knowledge of our country ' s early beginnings, from its foundings to our basic form of government. German German is the fourth most widely used European language, following English, Russian, and Spanish. Those taking German learn the correct grammatical forms and the basic vocabulary. Many of our every day words are derived directly from the German language. 40 Office Practice Shorthand Keep youi feet flat on the floor, and sit up straight, is the admoni- tion of the business department. By taking these courses, students are preparing themselves for a business career in which they learn and understand the needs of a general office. English English is the worlds most widely spoken language and we are re- quired to take four units. Sen- tence parts and structure are studied and then applied in com- position. The students realm of reading is aided in the search of material for term papers and book reports. Short stories and auto- biographies provide opportunities to exhibit any writing skills we may possess. Typing Haste makes Waste. — B. Franklin Typing is the skill in using the typewriter. Speed and accuracy are the goals for students in this course. Contests and pins give the typing students the initiative to increase their speed and type without error. 41 Mechanical Drawing He that has a trade has an Office of Profit and Honor. M --B. Franklin Today a young man must be skillful with his hands. In me- chanical drawing, blueprints are planned and drawn by the steady and precise hands of future en- gineers and aero-mechanics. Physical Education Physical education includes ac- tivities and sports of all kinds designed to improve posture, physical development, and gen- eral fitness and health. Instruc- tors advise the students on their needs, and help them develop their fitness. Grades are given on the basis of knowledge, atti- tude, sportsmanship and general fitness. Metal Shop Help, Hands; for 1 have no Lands. — B. Franklin Industrial arts makes it possible for boys to become skillful with their hands. In metal shop young men learn how to rivet, hammer, bend and weld metal. 42 SCHOOL LIFE MARCHING PANTHERS STUDENT COUNCIL L. Carr, J. Crumpacker, R. Hale, J. Jaegar, D. Szymanski, B. Justel, J.

With only one win in 11 games, the Panthers faced the Westville Blackhawks, on the Hawks own stamping grounds. Tired of being put down as the under- dog, the Panthers clawed their way to a second victory. The Panthers, 54; Hawks 53. The win gave the Panthers a much needed shot in the arm and the disappointments of the past eight games quickly vanished because they managed to beat a team they hadn ' t beaten in years. It was not just a lucky win; the Panthers played the type of ball which win games, and they de- served to win that big one. County Tourney was then anticipated. But as the Panthers were counting on a victory against the Boone Grove Wolves, the last 7 seconds proved fatal, leaving the Panthers 2 points behind. Though the Panther team gained few victories this season the fans and boosters will never forget the great show of basketball and teamwork, displayed by a determined team. 53 “JACKSON LIKE FORTY-THIRD PORTER COUNTY TOURNEY JANUARY 19, 20, 22, 1966 JACKSON Principal . .
