The directions we took as a student body and the paths we walked as indi- viduals are reflected in our faces, our attitudes, an-d will be--in our futures. They were routes to conflict, to success, to happiness, and to honor. Of course, the main highway led to learning. Academic signposts dotted the course, with detours leading to football games, dances, school spon- sored trips and club meetings. When we reach the end of this road, we see that it leads in many directions, for after students leave Okmulgee High School, they will tra- vel many roads to success, never for- getting that part of the road called Route '68.

These classes provide hours of first rate opportunities which enable students to learn new ideas, to ques- tion tradition, and to make decisions. O.H.S. has as its aim the pro- vision of opportunities for each stu- dent, limited only by his capacity to lerarn or his desire to participate. The students' goals provide incen- tives for their progress, for which Okmulgee High School provides di- versified classes, trained personnel, and a guiding hand. GCISD' Okmulgee High School h a s proudly served the citizens of Okmul- gee for over sixty years, educating their sons and daughters to accept challenges, fulfill promises, and dis- cover answers. Well-qualified teachers have pav- ed Route '68 with understanding, and encouraged individual expression and group discussion. Outstanding coun- selors .and administrators have given their time and effort to help each student overcome obstacles in his path.

An anticipated and cherished moment to every stud- ent of Okmulgee High, it is a memory- making time for the present students, and a time of remembering for earlier travelers on the route through O.H.S. Homecoming is truly a coming home for all the alumni of O.H.S. Deconations for Homecoming, a pep rally, the traditional parade, and the thrill of a football victory reigned over by our lovely queen, make our memories of Homecoming. Festivities of the day reach a climax as the Homecoming Queen is crowned by the football captain. Completing a perfect Homecom- ing, a Bulldog victory!

Our superintendent and school board are continually trying to improve the in- structional staff, equipment, and sup- plies, better the physical plants, and improve the educational services of Okmulgee's elementary and second- ary schools. They work diligently toward their goal, which is to make this school an institution of opportunities for the students who attend it. Ever willing and eager to make improvements, they are striving to promote scholar- ship, citizenship, and service. School Board Maps Route '68 James R. Frazier Superintendent 18 Richard M. House Principal Mr. House Guides And Directs The responsibilities of Okmulgee High School resl on the shoulders of Richard M. House, principal. Stri- ving to keep O.H.S. a school which gives all students a balanced pro- gram, Mr. House must be conscious of the needs and problems of both students and faculty. Working with members of the community, he must be able to establish rapport between the town and school. Miss Rena Gionta, O.H.S.'s effi- cient registrar, is invaluable to our school. Miss Rosalie Gillum, secre- Rosalie Gillum tary, assists Miss Gionta. Rena Gionta l 9 Counselors - - llur Guideposts Along Route '68 Life is a funny game. Some days the world looks rosy, everything is just wonderful. On other days the world looks dark to the student, it seems that everyone has turned ag- ainst him. Helping students to adjust both mentally and emotionally is a task which requires much of our counsel- ors, but they accept the challenge willingly. Mr. I. D. Henry, our guidance counselor, is a man devoted to his job and always eager to do whatever he can to make life a little less compli- cated for the students. Mrs. Anna B. Turner, dean of girls, and Mr. Melvin Skelton, dean of boys, cope with problems of a somewhat different nature. Their job is to dis- cipline and instruct students in prop- I. D.

Without their aid and instruction, Okmulgee High School could not exist. Their willingness to help, their insight into students' problems, and their good will toward each other and their classes are essential to this well-run school.

Full of anticipation and eager to begin their first year as senior high students, the sophomores embarked on Route '68. They uncovered the wonders of nature in biology class, learned skill and coor- dination in driver's education, and deepened their mathematical skills in geometry. The sophomores took on more respon- sibilities and in turn were given more free- dom of choice in scheduling their classes. Pausing for a minute from their busy schedules are sophomore officers Rusty Milroy, president and Bobby Butler, secretary. Not pictured is Danny Reese, vice-president.

Confidence appears where once was uncertainty. Experiencing both failure and success in the many facets of junior high life, eighth graders soon realize that each sep- arate happening is a step forward. EIGHTH GRADE OFFICERS, Mark Fidler, president, Janice Milroy, secretary, and Brian Wiggs, vice-president, provide the leadership for the eighth grade to make their mark in O. H. S. school-life.

THE READING LAB offers great opportu- nities for students to further their reading ability. Seventh Grade In the beginning of the school year 1967-'68 the World of the seventh grader was a world of confusion, excitement, and uncertainty. However, as the year has ------ progressed, seventh graders have become accustomed to the school, their teachers, and their classes. They have learned a sense of direction in the school building. Pep assemblies, sports events, school sponsored clubs and contests have attracted their enthusiasm. They designed and built a prize-winning float for the homecoming parade. By accepting the knowledge offered through Okmulgee High, they have be- come an important part of the school.

Finishing with a 9-1-2 re- cord, including a berth in the state finals, the Canines proved that desire and deter- mination will bring suecesls. Opening the season with a 7-7 tie with Mc.-Xlester, the Bulldogs eame on strong, lashing Bixby 42-O and arch rival, Henry- etta, 26-O. The Dogs next game was billed as the key to the conference Championship. Broken Arrow eame to play and knotted the bulldogs 28-28. However, the Dogs Won the game with zi 6-5 penetration edge. The following week came a little easier for the Canines, as they rolled over Tahle- quah 42-6. A strong Miami team fell 21-O. Claremore became the sixth casually by a score 27-O. The Bulldogs laid the carpet for the Seminole Chieftans, defeating them 42-6. Six Lakes foe Pryor fought gamely but lost, 20-0. This Victory propelled the Dogs into the number one spot in AA ratings. The regular season ended with a hard-earned 14-0 decision over Sand Springs. VVith the S-ix Lakes Conference Champ- ionship under their belt, the Bulldogs had one more opportunity to even things up with MeAlester. The Canines exhibited the qualities of a number one team and eorralled the Buffaloes 24-7 in the state semi-finals. The Bulldogs hit the stumbling block in the finals, losing to Stillwater 7-15, They closed the '67 campaign being dt-- elared state runner-up. QS Wr- E 51533, DJ im..

However, Coach Carl Scott and his determined cagens were out to prove differently, and they did just that. The Bulldogs rolled up five straight vic- tories before losing to Pryor. Included in the five straight was the capture of the Tahlequah Invitational Tournament, where the Dogs made Boynton, Bartlesville Soo- ner, and Taft their victims. 1 Q' Y Miami tripped the Dogs after the .Chr- istmas vacationg then the tide turned for the Bulldogs. After this loss the team reeled off 13 straight wins during the re- gular season. This rash of victories pro- pelled the Canines to the number two position in state ratings. The Bulldogs' list of 'thirteen casualit- ies included Bristow, Sand Springs, Broken Arrow, Tahlequah, Pryor, and Sapulpa. Every team except Pryor and Miami bit the dust twice to the Canines. l54 W O 1 an if I af 3 Y 1' fs I L J U I Vx M ff' f 'lu 2 if r T X A ff . ,SA I , - A as lk ' 'Mi V mf 4 .
