Shade flowers lawns transform Dust Bow Paramount What a campus! What a year! Crowded halls . , . buildings rising overnight . . . trees tall enough to cast shadows . . . spick and span Rally Court with its pastel tables . . . crowds reading clippings on the Sport Board , . , the Art Club auction below the P . . . all these were part of this year's cam- pus, alive as never before, measuring up to its proud name, Paramount!

K. ,s A-gy, .I' Six years ago Pirates enrolled in a new school to the sound of workmens saws, hammers, and drills. Filled with spirit, they ignored the sandy acres and treeless Rally Court. They set about buildirg a representative government and fine tradt'ons that would guide those to come. Their enthusiasm and iudgment bear fruit today in the lives of more than a thousand students here today. 'llilnp-' li fl 531-' . ' , x s vf -- v . 1 if 4 r' ,I 3. ,M - . I1 .

SUP erinlenden r .lack Kobiiisilifed School Dlsmc . un, n t of Pmomo t Pooled Leadership O f f e r i n g effective guidance to Para- mount's rapidly expanding school system, Superintendent Jack Robinson, his admini- strative aides, the Board of Education, and the high school Parent-Teacher Asso- ciation have helped to make Paramount's sixth year its very best. Wisely they pool initiative, training, and experience to solve problems of finance, policy, growth, and personnel. How effective they are was proved this fall by a most successful bond election which will allow this campus to handle its mounting enrollment. To the P.T.A. goes Pirate thanks for aid in such specific proiects as the Marquee, Foreign Exchange students, and the final All Night Party for the graduates of l959, Ml' P'-'IU' Bfltlef Dr. John Allan Smith Mr. Wilson Bell A55'5i0nl5UPe nieY1def'i Assistant Superintendent Administrative Assistant
