Fredericksburg, Virginia FOR REFERENCE ONLY . 4 . nn nh ' rnnrrk KevionJ Library Central tiappahamocK i - 1201 Caroline Street Fredericksburg, VA 22401 I — q ns - mo 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 Memorial Library at the James Monroe Law Office. 2 3 3133 02734 7830 JAMES MONROE HIGH SCHOOL SONG On the banks of the Rappahannock, And the ancient King’s Highway; At the head of navigation And the tide from the Chesapeake Bay, Stands a city old and honored May her shadows ne’er grow less; And the jewel of that city Is her High School, 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, The flag that flies above her, Our beloved J.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. 3 Table of Contents Dedication Each yeai the Senior Class chooses a faculty member to whom the MONROE ECHO is dedicated. This year we are priviledged to give this honor to one who has spent many hours in helping educate the students of James Monroe High School. We, the Class of 1968, wish to thank him for his many contributions by dedicating the MONROE ECHO to Arthur H. Schwartz. 5 In Memotiem Robert Welch Coble ' 64 Geotye Michael Beck 71 6 Mr Boley ADMINISTRATION 7 MrnmM ' m SCHOOL BOARD: Left to right, seated: Frank C. Siivey; Mrs. gomery, Clerk.

A life filled with meaning is never lost And it grows richer day by day We hold the key to a new tomorrow Only you can decide what lies ahead, but it’s for us To choose the right way. Whatever our choice we’ll be proud We shall lead and set our own pace We’ll be determined and then achieve We shall pave the roads to progress and give the world A bright new face. We’ll search for truth in the world Only fools succumb to lies We’ll strengthen ourselves by building others We’ll tear down the walls of prejudice and then heed The peoples’ cries. We’ll develop a strong but free mind Aiming only for the best, but why So we can make something of ourselves tomorrow Before we find that life ... Has passed us by. 47 Class History Around the ages of six or seven, it was discovered that we Seniors could take short naps and talk in class. As a result, we were herded off to elementar ' school. Our Younger Years were primarily composed of learning basic grammar and multiplication. However, there WERE some bright spots. Many of us remember the fourth-grade health charts and the teacher would make her rounds every day and ask, “Johnny, have you brushed your teeth today?” You got a red star if your nails were clean and a blue star if you brought a hanky. We had many co-ordinated people in our class. Like the time Miss Best All Round, Elizabeth McGee, fell headlong into the mud- puddle. And when Jim had a post-graduation party down at his cottage and Ava Blum hadn’t been there five minutes before she proceeded to fall in the water. In school, we had those lessons in “rhythms” and square dancing. Bewildering were those trips to the zoo. As real swinging kids, we went along with all the fads - - the hula-hoop, the Pogo sticks, and the Happy Fizzies Parties. Our seventh grade year was the highlight of our elementary school careers. Such additions as chocal reading and memorizing “Stop¬ ping By Woods on a Snowy Evening” added much to our fun. Matt er of fact, we enjoyed it so much that some of us even brought fresh flowers to one teacher. Right Neil Rankins and Robert Miller? And there was the big Seventh-Grade Mystique - - the Dragnet. In those days, we were not eligible to attend unless we were in the eighth grade. But if you could sneak in, you were tres cool. They seemed so sophisticated, with all those dances, like the Twist, the Mashed Potatoes, the Slop, and the Limbo. And if we can remem¬ ber correctly, everybody didn’t dance, did they, Elizabeth? As is true for every eighth grade class, our confusion was over¬ whelming. The one factor that added the most to our confusion was probably that wonderful book, English 2600. So, in order to counteract our confusion, we elected Ronnie Gosper to be our class president. Also, that was the year that it snowed on Sandy Lineberry’s desk in Latin class; finally, it was the last year of Mr. Willis, the year that our class comprised the Junior Band. The eighth grade was also the year of Betsy Armstrong, with all her little games; for instance, in a packed Volkswagen, she would suddenly yell, “Left Toe Time” and everyone had to grab their big left toe. And don’t forget all those Chinese fire drills. Dances and music that year included the Bird, the Bosa Nova, the Pony, and the debut of the Beatles. There was the famous Slob Party at Merrill Blatt’s house, where everybody dressed up as a real slob, and a prize was given to the slobbiest slob - - of course, Janet Nelson walked away with it. In September, 1964, came our freshman year, along with Fool’s Fridays and Mythology, commonly called “Fractured Fairy Tales.” Our gym classes were not without excitement. Due to her ex¬ ceptional acrobatic ability, Judy received the title “Rubber Legs Jackson”. Also, in the boys’ gym classes, we had fun. Someone seemed to be missing something when he was thrown out of the locker room. Right, “Weenie” Carter? Surprisingly enough, people were still dancing that year - - the Watusi, the Hully-gully, the Locomotion, the Bristol Stomp, the Calypso, and, of course, the Freddy. The freshman year was the year that our school spirit reached its peak. Matter of fact, Mrs. Pappandreau had to force a class to stay after school in order to have a freshman class meeting. It was at this meeting that someone made the wise suggestion that we choose the Tiger Lily as our class flower. Our first (and our last) piece of business in our SOPHOMORE year was to change our class flower to something more sensible - - the pink rose. And we re-elected Chip Berry to serve again as our fearless class president. Of course, the tenth grade was the year of the sophomore girls’ dance, presented by Les Petites Jeunes Filles. Besides such ac¬ tivities as this, we cared for little else. The main schoolwork we did was to convert Julius Caesar into “jive talk.” Wow! It was the year of James Bond and the ejection seat, the James Bond attache case, and the 007 cologne. Dances that year included the Swim and the Frug. 48 Dur Junior year introduced us to many new things, such as de¬ bating for the Prom. Yes, the Prom starred that soul creation, ‘Creeper and the Vidells”. Junior year introduced us to the newest additions of the King George Klan - - Martha “Bam Bam” Burns and Jan “Half-the-Time” Hamway. We were told conflicting apinions of ourselves. Accord ing to one beloved teacher, we were the “intelligensia”; another called us “babies”. Many of us, though, rnjoyed ourselves in class. People like Perry Smith with the tape recorder. rhere were phenomena - - like the day that Dennis Hooten spied a :entipede crawling up the wall and proceeded to squash it with his shoe. (We swear that bug is still on that wall!) And on March 13, 1967, Martha Burns said she was not fickle. Fads that year included the Slurpy, the topless bathing suit, and lances like the Monkey and the Jerk. One very popular song around school that year was “I’m in the Mood for Love”. Extra-curricular activities really held our attention. Mark Sullivan, winner of the UN Essay Contest, went on the two-week tour. Susan Hall and Merrill Blatt took part in various college summer programs. Jim Pates spent the summer in Holland as our AFS representative. Boys attending Boys’ State included Gary Ingalls, Jeff Chewning and Peyton Kash; Linda Jones and Sandy Lineberry attended Girls’ State. This was also the first year that we started going to the Coachman. But this past year, our Senior year, has been such an absolute drag that we could hardly think of anything to tell. For example, in the fall, besides having play practice, cheering practice, Homecoming practice, band practice, football practice, and hockey practice, there were always a few meetings to keep us from loitering in the halls. Of course, there were a few that just couldn’t keep from staying here at school. For instance, Carter Frackleton, with her spotlight duties took up PERMANENT residence. She only went home on the week-ends. All loyal, school-spirited students came to see the “Patsy”, the Senior Play, and got to hear the famous five-minute ad lib per¬ formance by Marty Price and Penny Lewis. (But there’s no use crying over spilt milk.) Leading these activities was our class president, Bucky Cox, assisted by our DEPENDABLE treasurer, Neil Rankins. Academi¬ cally, our leaders were Carolyn Martin, valedictorian, and Carol Chilcott, salutatorian. Throughout the year, the Seniors enjoyed their privileges of coming into the school early and their college days. It was always helpful to find out more about your college by actually visiting it - - people like Gary Ingalls, Neil Rankins, David Gunckel, Peyton Kash, Bruce Pully, Jeff Chewning, and Lauren Dabel. February came quickly, and we lost Mrs. Cuddy. There goes another English teacher. Socially, nothing has happened this year - - only approximately seven formal dances, four parties, and a few Senior girls’ pajama parties. There were fads like the Bomb, put out by the Slurpy people. Scott Brown can testify as to how good it tastes. There was the Bonnie and Clyde fad and such dances as the Bugaloo, the Funky Broadway, and the Shingaling. The activity which was the most fun was probably our Variety Show. It starred such personalities as Big Mamma Jeanne Harris and “Otis Rob” Miller. As with everything else this year, there was a party afterwards. Nobody even felt the rain. The Prom, as usual, was terrific. Somehow, the Juniors came up with a beautiful job. And we have to extend our appreciation to Bill Krufehs for his atmospheric party; our Life of the Party Winners were there en force - - Cheri Matter and Dennis Hooten. Somehow, though, the last several weeks have gone rather slowly. For some reason, kids would cry out in the middle of class, “Only eight more days to go,” and everybody would swoon. So now, we’re off to New York to stage our own Poverty March and then return to FAIL our final exams. AND WE’RE WORRIED!
