Text from Pages 1 - 240 of the 1966 volume:

1966 Morcohi Honors Mrs. Grayce Wasson 6 One of the most outstanding qualities of Mrs. Wasson is that she takes special interest in each indi- vidual and is always there to help. Words cannot express the respect and grati- tude of everyone, past and present, felt toward Mrs. Grayce Wasson. For her undying interest in M. C. H. S., its civic affairs, sports events and enthusiastic spirit to all those around her, we dedicate the 1966 Morcohi. We, the students ofM.C.H.S., wish her many more years of success and happiness. 7 In her 28 years of teaching at M.C.H.S. Mrs. Wasson has thoroughly enjoyed her work and looks forward to many more years. 1966 Morcohi Staff STAFF MEMBERS, SEATED: Konnye Reynolds, Ann Orr, Dianna Roy, Martha Oden, Betty Wallace, Cathy Breeding, Ann Walker.

The Art Club was formed this year of 65-66 by artistically inclined students that met and exchange ideas. The club, sponsored by Mrs. Mitchie Howell, is one of the few clubs employing natural skills. This enthusiastic group gave its members a chance to express their talent and learn of others. With at least one year of art, any student can enjoy the club and join in all its activities. Among the many activities, the club made field trips, ex- hibited pictures at school and made a special trip to Birming- ham, which enabled the mem- bers to enjoy art departments and museums of great interest.

In time of demise. On the athletic field or in the classroom. And there is always a swelling Pride of awe when the Alma Mater is sung. The past year has been recorded in the 1966 MORCOH1. It is history, to be forgotten by many, but, to a special few, it will always be remembered. I would like to thank you, the students of Morgan County High School, for letting me serve you this year as editor of your yearbook. It has been a wonderful experience, never to be forgotten. Also, I would like to thank the Morcohi Staff for a job well done. Mrs. Cath- erine Sims for her faith in me when the going was rough, Barry Mitchell for his excellent an work, and the photographers of Waldrup Studio for their patience with us when we made pic- tures. You all have a special place in my heart and 1 am truly grateful. To the underclassmen, I hope your Senior year will be as wonderful as mine. To my classmates, good luck to the future. May you all have a happy and successful life. Sincerely. cXAUKja. 0 cW 226 Martha Oden Editor 1966 Morcohi Autographs 227 Autographs Autographs 229 Autographs Autographs 231 Autographs ♦
