M. H. S. (Chorus) Hail, hail, to James Monroe Our own beloved High; Though her pathway may be rugged We will leave her with a sigh; In the years before us. Her name we’ll always bless; For she’s our foster mother, Our beloved J. M. H. S. Four square to the winds of heaven, Four square to truth and right; May she stand four square forever, Gainst ignorance and strife. May she ever bear with honor And her sons and daughters bless. Our beloved J. M. H. S. 3 The seal which appears on the cover of the MONROE ECHO is a presidential seal bearing a profile of James Monroe. On the reverse side of the authentic seal are the hands of an Indian and a soldier, and a peace pipe and a tomahawk which symbolize “Peace and Friendship.” The seals were first minted in silver when George Washington was President. With the incoming of each President, a new seal was made. Replicas are made in bronze by the United States Mint in Philadelphia and have been sought after as museum pieces. There is one in the James Monroe Mem¬ orial Library at the James Monroe Law Office. 4 Administration . 7 Seniors . 17 Underclassmen . 63 Sports . 83 Gluts . 101 Jcaturcs . 131 Ads . 147 ‘Joreword The MONROE ECHO is a symbol of the spirit and life at James Monroe High School.

May it long represent the joyful and inspiring memories of 1967. 5 Dedication As sponsor of the James Monroe yearbook for many years, she has given much of her time to the success of the annual.

PEGGY WINGARD Salutatorian 48 Class Poem A LIFE OF OUR OWN We were born into this river Which has brought us to this bend Where we must decide for ourselves If this is the beginning or the end. Our river will sometimes be cloudy We will experience hardships and pain. These turbulent waters will cause us to suffer The river will be as gray as the rain. But, the river will not always be troubled After its anger had died, The water will flow ever gently Its color as blue as the sky. We can sit by its side and daydream We can dream for the rest of our lives. But, the ships that pass are calling Shall we go or dream til we die? If we take the chance, we re given the chance To create a life of our own. We can seek happiness; we can seek love We can prove to men we re grown. The river is not always blue, nor forever gray Shall we sit on the bank, forever to gaze. Or will we take opportunity now, To have real life for the rest of our days? Donna Allen ’67 49 Class History In the fall of 1955, the Class of ’67 opened the doors of Lafayette, Maury, and Monfort and began its twelve year struggle. After six years of coloring books, hopscotch, and marbles, we took our place in the seventh grade as the “intellects” of Maury. Fights between the sexes turned into romances as the boys discovered that girls weren ' t as useless as they thought. This new peaceful co-existence” was shown in the exchange of friendship rings and our many parties. Mr. Graham, the principal, however did not share our love of parties and asked us if we would mind studying a little as an extra curricular activity. We had a preview of high school life as we learned to change classes. After a year of being on top, we took a quick plunge as we bumped into our first senior. But as the year progressed, we became accustomed to the high school routine of exams, term paper, and DR’s. Our class officers were Janet Skinner, President; Margaret Moss, Vice-President; and Betty Deans, Secretary-Treasurer. Our enthusiastic school spirit brought good luck to our varsity basket¬ ball team as we cheered them on to win the State Championship. After school the gang headed for Scotty’s. Some stayed for hours talking and drinking cokes, but others stayed only a very few minutes because of little disagreements with the manager. Right, Calvin, Kenny and Bemie? But memories of the eighth grade wouldn ' t be complete without mentioning Mr. Mosha, our lovable Latin teacher. Four of his com- mandements were: Thou shalt speak only when spoken to.” Thou shalt place thy homework on the throne.” Thou shalt march out of the school during fire drills.” Thou shalt not move thy desk from the line on the floor. ” Failure to obey these commandments resulted in squares and flying yardsticks. Just ask Donna Morganstem and Anne King . In our freshmen year, the stronger sex prevailed as we elected our class officers: Jim Savage, President; Corky Coble, Vice-Presi¬ dent; and Steve Jarrell, Secretary-Treasurer. Between the gods and goddesses of Mrs. Pappandreou and the greening solution of Mr. Hodge, we put another year behind us in our climb to ' 67. As sophomores, we elected John Rose, President; Mitchell Powell, Vice-President; and Michael White, Secretary-Treasurer. Mr. Yungman introduced us to the “Great White Whale.” Classes were livened up a little as Florence and Mr. Yungman began their year long battle over what was rational and irrational. Spring brought excitement to the sophomore girls as they planned their big Sophomore dance. We thought the parties in the seventh grade were exciting, but they were nothing compared to the parties we began having in high school after a big dance. Right, Pat Lowe? Our junior year, under a new principa l, Mr. Hebert, was led by Mitchell Powell, President; Robert Chinn, Vice-President; Janet Skinner, Secretary; and Carole Waite, Treasurer. In the fall we ordered our rings and swamped Ulman’s Jewelry Store when they arrived. In the spring, excitement mounted as we started working on the prom. Everyday after school, dressed in dungarees, and sweat¬ shirts and covered with paint, we worked to create a Lost Paradise. The volcano erupted in more than one way when Mr. Hebert saw the gym floor. In May we took our first college boards which made 50 some of us realize that we weren’t as smart as we thought.

Ricky Muzzy, Jimmy Prince, George Schremp, and Walter Beck are doing i.B.M. programming for the government. Mike Jacobs, Robert Talley and Peggy Wingard are working on the mathematical formulas for a new secret weapon. Somehow the information leaked out. Everyone at the C.I.A. office, including secretaries Norma Wilson, Sandy Varnick, and Nancy Thacker and even telephone operators Martha Morrison, Betty Lou Mitchell, and Jean Limbrick are being investigated. The investigation was started by Senators Kenneth Whitescarver and Randy McKann in conjunction with Governor Mike Greaser. It looks like the case might not be solved, but secret agents Pat Low, Barbara Cline, Mollie McCarthy, and Lowell Thompson are working on it. That rich lawyer with an Aston-Martin, Gary Nuckols, senior partner of the law frim Nuckols, Verberg, Rowe, and Savage is advising everyone to remain silent through his legal sec¬ retary, Sandi Stewart. Even store managers are aware of the scandal —Lee Lewis of Leggett’s, Pat O’Connell of Sears, 54 Prophecy Jimmy Otey of Safeway, and Mr. Christopher Mason Hallberg, manager of Gant shirts. The news has even reached professional bumbs. Corky Coble, Robert Chinn, David Castro and Cordy Sue Tafoya. All we ever hear about the govern¬ ment is scandal. Insurance agents Barry Payne, Ashby Staples, and Tommy Lee have even refused to sell insurance to govern¬ ment workers. Customer: What’s the armed forces doing about this?

Bachelor No. 2 is Gary Whelan, head engineer for NASA, and Anne’s date for the evening is Bachelor No. 3, auto mechanic, Ray Bailey. Also on the pro¬ gram was Chip Worley, now a civil engineer, who chose a date between bachelorettes Kathy Jones, paper-back writer, Brenda Weible, secretary, and Nancy Miller, telephone opera¬ tor. Karen Burrell, Mary Frances Patton, Greg Minor, and Jerry Shelton appeared on a revised Newlywed Game show that featured old married couples. The show is M.C. ed by John Faulkner, expert on marriage. Robin Spratt, Ronnie Baker, Malone Schooler are with the band on the Newlywed Game. I see that some of the people in your class went to that city under the sea. The city was designed and built by archi¬ tects Nicky Seay, Ray Dameron, and engineers Bobby Hartmaier and Tommy Riddle.

Every student is a member of this organization, the most important in the school. The SCA coouncil is made up of 5 officers: president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, and reporter, and representatives from each homeroom and each club. This year the SCA sponsored the annual magazine drive, provided about 50 Christmas baskets for needy area families, collected clothing for the underprivileged in Appalachia and created a new bulletin board system. Every as¬ sembly presented to the students during the year was arranged through the SCA by an assembly chairman. The SCA elections were held late in March to elect the leaders of James Monroe for 1967- 1968. “Any old business? Any new business? Any business? Mrs. Allison smiles after a successful year.
