FOREWORD ADMINISTRATION SENIOR SECTION UNDERCLASSIVIEN ORGANIZATIONS PERSONALITIES SPORTS ACTIVITIES ADVERTISEMENTS FOREWORD The 1960 INDIAN has been published for the purpose of recording the activities of this school year. Extracurricular activities, such as dances, sports, clubs, and assemblies, have been emphasized and pictured throughout the annual. In expressing our thanks to those who have helped make this edition possible, We must not forget Mrs. Mosley, our sponsor, Mark Foster, our photographer, and the merchants for their advertisements. We appreciate the eo-operation given to us by the faculty and the student body. ANN BRUNO, Editor-in-Chief BETTY PETERS, Associate Editor MARY LYNN GRIMSLEY, Associate Editor LET US TELL YOU . Looking back, it seems as if this were our greatest year of high school. Oh, sure, the first two years in the old brick building and last year were fun, but this year was THE year, for we were seniors. This was our second year in the almost-new high school with its modern architecture, and spacious grounds fgigantic when you're racing the tardy bellj. The first year was rather hectic with about 450 people getting adjusted at once, but this year we fat least we upperclassmenj did not feel any strange- ness at all, but rather as if this were our home. Because this was our home weld like for you to know more about it in hopes that you will come to love it as we do. To understand our school you must know something of our town. Jackson- ville, '6The Tomato Capital of the World,', is a town of about 11,000 people situated in the East Texas pine hills. It is not very outstanding in any specific way, but rather is just one of the many small and medium-sized towns which dot the nearby countryside. ln our hearts it is special, though, for in it dwell the people who make up our own personal worlds. In it also is our high school with students from both our town and many outlying communities. The town kids make up the greatest pan of our student body, but our school would never be complete without the others, for those communities produce some of the most outstanding members of our school. Enough for now, though, so let,s get on with the tour. THE STUDENT COUlNC These youths -the 1959-T960 STUD ENT COUNCIL - are the ones We chose by popular bal- lot to lead our school. They led us through thick and thin, assemblies and projects, East Texas Stu- dent Forums, and Texas Association W o r k s h 0 p, and through all they had a Wonderful time while ac- complishing a great deal. On the next pages you will see the officers who led our Council. 7 N P w Recgfding Secretary PafliafHCHtafiaH MARY WARD, Treasurer SUSAN PEARSALL, Chaplain SUPERINTENDENT MR. W. D. MAULDIN, our SUPERINTEN- DENT of the schools of Jacksonville, has been a member of our school system for several years and was a familiar face for most of us. With his beaming smile he is one of the best-known of all the adults who worked with us. A new position this year, SUPERVISOR OF CUR- RICULUM AND ADMIN- ISTRATIVE ASSISTANT, was filled by Mr. JACK IVIARTIN, who soon became a vital part of our town and our school. Below: THESE MEN GAVE FREELY OF THEIR TIME AND EFFORTS TO HELP OUR SCHOOL BOARD OF EDUCATION. Left to right, Herbert Coleman, Allen Goforth, Presidentg Dr. Harbert Davenport, Dr. Floyd Verheyden, W. E. Baily, Hewitt Wilson, Lee Ragsdale, and seated, Charles F. Adams, Secretary of the Board. THEY WERE ALWAYS HELPFUL MRS. J. M. TOLAND, SEC- RETARY TO THE PRINCI- PAL, will always have a special place in our memories. It was to her we went for admits and just about anything else we needed. She was always tops on everyone's list. For those of us who had problems, MR. ROY HANNA, who was our COUNSELOR at Jacksonville High School, was always ready with sym- pathy, advice, and football tickets. His lively sense of humor and constant good spirits, combined with helpfulness, made him one of the students' favorites, both as a friend and as an adviser HEAD MAN AT J.H.S This year We had a new PRINCIPAL, and MR. O. G. OSBORN, coming to us with his BS. from Missouri State and his NLS. from East Texas, very capably filled the position. In a very short time he was as well loved and as much a part of us as if he had been at J.H.S. for many years. THEY Each year Mrs. Toland is assisted by high school stu- dents who each work in the office one period every day. This year these OFFICE WORKERS had a new duty: that of collecting absentee and tardy slips. They braved wind and weather to collect those slips, as well as spend- ing much time with other office work.

The most important edition yet, because, as seniors, our pictures appeared again and again. ANITA KAY TARRANT was EDI- TOR of the NEWSPAPER at high school and her job consisted of seeing that our INDIAN WAR WHOOP was in the library on sale at noon every Friday, and that all the campus gossip was there too-who dated whom-and if someone else was going steady. Most important was to see our names in print. THE MGAVEL POUNDER TIM MURPHY wee elected by ibe Student body id be eiie PRESIDENT OF THE STUDENT COUNCIL AND STUDENT BODY.

Membership in this organization is honorary, and each member is chosen in the spring of his junior year, not only because of scholarship, but also for character, leadership, and service. This year's N.H.S., very capably sponsored hy Miss Lois Boles, was successful in all that it did. Selling cake slices, sponsoring honesty posters, and giving a party for members of the junior class who had been on the honor roll were some of their most outstanding activities.

In addition to leading our march- ing band during football season, they played instruments in the concert hand and performed in various shows around the school. It took a great amount of devotion to the hand and many hours of hard practice to per- form as well as they did. Those hours of hard practice paid well. though, for after attending a University Inter- scholastic League in Longview they came home with medals for solo twirl- ing and twirling ensembles.

This was a reception given by the Future Teachers. Fran Beardan is standing behind the table serving while Helen Jane Riordan, Marleen Simmons, Paula Forrest, and Don Miller are wait- ing in line to be served.

I33 ACTIVITIES Aside from attaining scholastic achieve- ments, the students paiticipated in various kinds of ACTIVITIES at Jacksonville Senior High School.

Dina, Cleta, Sara, Sharon, Ian, Mary Lynn, and Jeannie are rushing up the stairs. Of course everyone was always out of ink, paper, or pencils, and Mr James was a most obliging clerk and manager of the handy D.E. store l S Susan was Student Council chairman of Chaplain Committee and most of the time would give the devotional. She was always well prepared and her devotional very timely.

Below Mike Laminons, Richard Heidelberg, and Duck Bacon were stars in the Christmas Assembly. Dancing here 'were JoAnn Walker, Larry Gore, Marolen Morton, and Robert Lanier at the Senior Prom. Neil, Ann, Maiy Lynn and Tim seemed to have been one of those cute two- somes that sang in Christmas Assembly. There were several skits given by dif- ferent groups in the choirs. The as- semblies given by them were always very entertaining. Parties and More Parties At the Beatnik Party Rev. Carlos Davis came as a beatnik sponsor. Enjoying the party are Janie Coforth, Shannon Smyrl, and Ann Bolton. Parties and more parties, that is what we liked. Everyone en- joyed all the parties that were given this year. To the left at the uwestern Party the cheer- leaders,did a skit to the 'Ten- nessee Waltzf' The cheerleaders were well known for their ability to imitate just about anything around school. Mary and Robbie were just about the best beatniks there. This group of solemn beatniks just sat around the table. They are Herbert Minter, Sandra Lane, Sandra Strother, and Jimmy Bass.

Built up over the dried-up river bed which lies between the main structure and its annexation, stands the Ramp. Constructed originally with the idea that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, the Ramp has become the nightmare of all unfortunates who prescribe to the science courses. Upon seeing the Ramp for the first time, you might be prompted to give your approval, and why not, for after all, the science building offers protection from the cold blast of the north wind. The gymnasium, which runs perpendicular to the Ramp on the eastward side, blocks off the east wind. The main buildings shield the Ramp from the southerly breezes. But these roadblocks only seem to aggravate Mother Natureis forces. The winds merely circle around to the unguarded west side. Here they combine their forces and come roaring in to blast anything and everything which happens to be caught on the Ramp. The gym, which had previously shielded against the east winds, now turns traitor, and allows the icy dale to rebound off its massive wall and to blast the Ramp again on the way back. It is the consensus of opinion of everyone who has ventured out upon the Ramp during the grip of winter that it is the coldest place in all of Cherokee County. To determine whether this was actually true or not, a test was made. Two thermometers were taken to the edge of the Ramp. One was placed a foot past the end of the Ramp, and the other was placed a foot inside the Ramp. At the beginning of the experiment both thermometers read the same. After only ten minutes the one on the Ramp had dropped ten degrees! This was during December. Of course winter must pass, and pleasant, spring makes its appearance. With the coming of spring, the howling winds become spring winds. April also brings with it what some people call the greatest hazard of all. When the engineers designed El Rampo del Diablo, they must have left their levels at home, because it is nothing more than a series of hills and valleys. The gentle spring rains run down off these hills and fill the valleys to overflowing. It then becomes impos- sible for any human being to make his way across the concrete creature without thoroughly soaking his feet. About the time they begin to dry, the bell rings signaling the end of class. So out across the Ramp we go, and consequently, we receive another soaking. As soon as gentle April has expired, May tries its hand at dealing another death blow to the Ramp. The rays of old sun beat mercilessly dowm, and the concrete begins to break out in beads of sweat. By the time a student passes from one end of the Ramp to the other, he looks as if he had justcome from PE. Of course, summer school students are the ones who know best the effects of the heat of June and July on the Ramp. During summer it is more commonly referred to as the uovenf' 4'Yet there must be a solution to this problem, you say. Yes, there is, and it has already been found. When the construction foreman designed the Ramp, he had insight into the difficulties that might arise. As an alternative he provided a route that would be warmer and less windy in Winter, drier in spring, and cooler in summer. This alternate pathway leads down by the cafeteria, which is located under the gym. It is sheltered completely except for about ten feet of steps. Then why donlt the students use this easier and more favorable route during the inclement weather? you ask. Well, that remains a mystery. But the answer must lie back in the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve dwelled, because every since then, Man has been trying to take the short cuts without giving any regard to the consequences. And the way it looks now, things are not due for a sudden change, and you can bet your bottom dollar there will be just as many idiots next year who will once again brave the perils of the Ramp. CPD Chuck Davenport RAMP The winds combine their forces and come roaring in to blast anything and everything which happens to he caught on the Ramp. Lois Ann Roberson, Bess Ellen Chan- cellor, Joan Baxley, and Ann Elsbury knew for a fact that it was the coldest spot in Cherokee County. With the coming of Spring came the March winds and Warm walks over the Ramp. Sandra Hunt, Lincoln Barber, George Causey, Petie Lammons, Gail Rogers, and Ann Elsbury grin and bear lt.
