Paris High School - Arena Yearbook (Paris, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1960 volume:

Through the pages of this ARENA we have attempted to create an atmosphere akin to that of an opening-night stage performance. The acts of this performance are all phases of school life. The actors included are the seniors as the stars; juniors are the co-stars; sophomores are the supporting cast; and freshmen provide the stage crew. And now the curtain rises, revealing scenes of the Paris Premier of 1960.

Fifty years ago, the first edition of the ARENA was published by the class of 1910 in order to portray each phase of school life at Paris High School. To you, the students of Paris High School, the 1960 ARENA staff presents the golden anniversary edition of the ARENA—a half century later. We, the 1960 ARENA staff, strive to carry on the tradition established in 1910. 2 f $59-60 s4%e M SENIOR STAFF—FRONT ROW. left to right: Patsy Brown, business manager; Deanna Sturgell, art editor: Judy Emery, reporter; Lucie Toney, lay-out editor; Jill Spicer, copy editor; Sue Guyer, typist; Emily Shaw, girls’ sports editor.

It has not always been so. The ideal, “Equal educational opportunities for all,” is attained only through sweat, toil, and self sacrifice. The past and present generations may justly be proud of their record in approaching that ideal. Youth of today, this is your heritage—an opportunity to learn, to determine your own course of study, to reach as far as your native capacity and your perseverance will carry you. The challenge is yours. What you do with it is up to you. Have confidence in yourself, have faith in divine guidance, and finally, remember that service to and thoughtfulness of others are the keys to a happy, successful future. Sincerely, Gerald R. Brown A.B., Illinois College; M.A., University of Illinois Superintendent Paris Public Schools The class of 1960 is graduating into a world which in many ways is unsettled and confused, but no one should say that he cannot plan what he should do. Those who have read history know that the world has never been calm and settled; there has always been confusion and turmoil, and it is likely that there always will be. The task that everyone has is to rise above the confusion to make his contribution to the world good and meaningful. Some of you are ready to take your places in the world and to work ahead now; some will go through more preparation and education before taking a full part in the work of our nation. Whatever part each of you will have, you must be sure that you give the best you have so that our nation can continue to grow. Your contribution should be positive, a contribution that will help the growth of our country. All of us are confident that you will find your place and do your part. John P.

This week, momentous in the lives of the Class of 1959. started with the Baccalaureate services at the First Methodist Church.

Wilkins. Superintendent of Public Instruction in Illinois, spoke to the Senior Class on “Essentials of Good Living.” In this address Superintendent Wilkins told the graduates: “You must make your choice in picking out the vital and essential things in life and casting aside those things which are not essential.” Senior Girls’ Chorus sing: “Prelude” and “As in a Morning Sunrise” with Mrs. Patricia McNees directing. 79 Se6ola4ttc — s4ouwieU, Scholarships were presented to these graduating seniors from Paris High School at last night’s commencement exercises to enable them to continue their education.

A MESSAGE FROM COACH HERRON Football has been talked about much, in the last few years, as being a dangerous sport. Facts prove that the sport “of just living” is more dangerous than playing football. What does football do for a boy? Football is a contact sport. In order to be a successful football player, the boy must be willing to accept body contact and enjoy the feeling of defeating an opponent with whatever tools he has at his commad. The greater tools are the will to win and teamwork above individual glory, plus physical ability and the sense to use the tools he has. If a boy gains these tools during the time he plays football and applies them to all of his other pursuits—in school and out, he will enjoy life and never give up the struggle for what he believes in. On the other hand, if a boy does not acquire these tools somewhere, he will not live—he will merely exist. 85 SENIORS, left to right: L. Jones, R. Clark, D. Nebergall, J.
