As the present becomes the past, these memories come alive again in the slowly turning pages of the yearbook. The 1961 edition of THE BULLDOG'S GROWL features not only our high school but also our city, Jennings, Louisiana, often referred to as the city of trees and churches, evinces the deep pulse which has turned it from a railroad stop into a blossoming community of more than 12,000 inhabitants. ACTIVITIES ATHLETICS Page 132 ORGANIZATIONS ADVERTISERS many advantages combine to serve each citizen in the best way possible. It is our sincere hope that as you, the reader, turn these pages and bring alive these memories, you will share with us the desire to become a vital part of this great pulse! 3 Dedication Miss June Shultz, who received her Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of Southwestern Louisiana, has been an active member of the Jennings High School faculty for the past four and one-half years. During that time, she has given the better part of every day to the school and to the students. Miss Shultz was sponsor of the school newspaper for two years, and she has worked untiringly with the Pep Squad for the past three years. In the school year 1958-1959, she received thejaycees' OUTSTANDING YOUNG TEACHER award for her efforts. Therefore we proudly dedicate this, THE BULLDOG'S GROWL of 1961, to Miss Shultz, our teacher and our friend.
