This challenge, these problems, can be detected in th ' e roar of each modern day rocket-1n the murmur of debate among the statesmen at every conference. It can be detected in the newspapers, in the everyday conversattion on our streets, in the halls and classrooms of our schools.

W-N1 - A -A M3 ... The last few years have witnessed a great revolution in world affairs. The population of the earth has doubled. Oppressed people increasingly have demanded and often seized freedom. Tremendous discoveries in all fields of science have been made. Established forms of government have fallen while newer ones have risen. And yet this is only a sampling of the many developments of the era. With these developments has come conflict. The world has divided into two hostile camps delicately balanced between war and peace.-one communistic and the other democratic. The youth of Okmulgee were faced with the many problems-the chal- lenges of these developments and this situation as they entered Okmulgee High in September. It was reflected in record enrollments in the more strictly educational courses-in the increased awareness of their res- ponsibilities both to themselves and to those around them. However, it was in October that they were to encounter their biggest challenge-perhaps the greatest challenge ever to be hurled before the youth of America. On October 4, the communists proved their technological equality if not superiority over the United States with their satellite. Immediately after this Russian triumph tresulting from their educational advancement! many people raised a cry for crash programs of educa- tion calling for the elimination of the many extras included in the American school system. A fear that if a mass production type program to produce engineers, scientists, and technicians were not adopted we would be overcome by the communistic camp gripped the United States. It rolled down the ranks of the American people without opposition until it came to rest against the youth of the country. It became their challenge to prove that they could become educated in these special fields and still retain the many valuable aspects of their present scholastic system of activities and organizations as well as pure education. It became the challenge of the youth of Okmulgee High to educate themselves in such fields as math and science as well as in the many other areas of interest offered at their school. It was this . . . Their challenge. .21- iii!!! Making Mechanical Drawings Competing in Science Fair , I,- ' f A 2'-.Tx ,149 I Q 6 . .

Their deaths were an impact felt by each member of OHS: a challenge to their emotions.

It is in this phase --in its varying degrees of both pure knowledge and practicality that the mainstay in their preparation to meet the challenge hurled before them lies. Irregardless of whether their curricultun leans toward courses in advanc- ed math and science, music or art, or a combination it is the foundation on which they will stand-tomorrow-next week-next year. -9. .af M ,pm ,sv M.

Rules and skills learned in team sports have been interesting, but they also have given the girls an opportunity to show and demonstrate sportsmanship. Exercising in the gym class are seventh grade boys as they perform one of their regular routines. Boys' physical education classes are preparing to be physically equpipped to meet the challenge of the future. They begin each day's class with exercises, while basketball, volleyball, touch foot- ball, boxing, wrestling, tumbling, and group games are a few of the activities done throughout the year. The year's activity ends with boys going to the part to play softball during the pretty spring days. -.24-.. f , -rl. ff' -' X6 .9 me-+-2' ss Watching Carolyn Cypert do one of the Kraus-Weber Tests for Muscular Fitness is the sixth hour seventh grade gym class.

We your loyal subjects are list'ning for your call. Proud are we of your emblem, of colors red and black, So we'll write your name in the hook of timeg Your honor we will back We are grateful for the mem'ries we have gather'd from the past, For friendship, truth, and goodness, that make these mem'ries last, For your helpful hand and welcome we would like to thank thee, too For taking us and making us each one a part of you. Year to year we'll bear the Torchlight so the flame shall light the way For others who'll be guided by us from day to day. And in each well earned O , a vow we give to thee, To love, respect, to cherish the life you've made us see, Okmulgee High! Okmulgee High! . -7- ,,g,'!
