. V THE PflRISIflil 1950 Published by SENIOR CLASS OF PARIS HIGH SCHOOL We The Members Of The Senior Class Of 1950 DEDICATE This Annual To Our Principal MR. WILLIAM F. RUSSELL Mr. Russell came to our school in 1948. He entered immediately into the midst of our school life. He has put energy, intellect and interest into every phase of our school. We the Seniors of 1950, in dedicating this annual to Mr. Russell, wish to express our gratitude and sincere appre- ciation for his service. in TRIBUTE TO MRS. MAUDE BRIGGS The Seniors of 1950 wish to pay tribute to Mrs. Maud Briggs. The members of our class were the last students she taught at Paris High and we would like to take this oppor- tunity to thank her. Not only was Mrs. Briggs interested in teaching us but in our lives also. Mrs. Briggs’ kindly attitude won for her the admiration and respect of everyone with whom she came in contact. We shall remember you always, Mrs. Briggs, as our devoted friend and teacher. 2 LEE KIRKPATRICH Superintendent A. B. Georgetown College; M.

We loved every minute of our first year, And thought our teachers so very dear. It was fun to read Ben and Alice, too- But more important things we were yet to do. Our second year was packed with thrills And fusses, fights, falls and spills. Two of our teachers, Mrs. Talbott and Mrs. Mead, Taught us some more of how to read. It was in the third that we all got blue, For now we had to stay till half past two. There were spelling bees and maps to draw. And this meant more work for one and all. But in the fourth we were really it. Full of pep and plenty fit. 'Twas here we had our first basketball team, Those cute little cheerleaders were really supreme. In our fifth year of school, We learned to live by the golden rule. We studied more and more each day, Spending our time in a more useful way. Our sixth year of school then begun. We had plenty of work along with our fun. We all looked forward to the passing of May, Because next would come Graduation Day. We then began our first year in Junior High We wandered around, each giving a sigh. We had started the year with great hopes. Now WE ALL FELT LIKE COMPLETE DOPES. In the eighth grade we had learned what to do. We were now capable of pulling through. We cast our cares to the rear, And looked forward to our Freshman year. Now as Freshmen our role was two fold Leaving Junior High, we were one step nearer our goal. Our subjects were new, our classes seemed harder. With views of Senior High our ambitions grew larger. Subdued for maybe a day, and a little shy. The next year we entered Senior High. This was the year the two Roses came, To ADD MUCH TO OUR HIGH SCHOOL FAME. As Juniors we had a more dignified air. And to the Sophomores we now gave a disdainful stare. With twelve of us Betas, and eight playing basketball. Gave a feeling of pride to one and all. And now we have reached our long-sought goal, As fifty-two Seniors are now on our role. We've made our record, and our day has past. And now to the future our die is cast Bells will ring on, both school and wedding. We now leave our high school days, regretting That our happy carefree days now end, The best of happiness to all we now send.

Hall could always be counted on for a rough and clean fought game. He was a good blocker and one of the best offensive men on the team. He won honorable mention All State for his Junior and Senior years. He was also co-captain. Dude was one of our best players. He received honorable men- tion for All State.

He is a grand player and one the Greyhounds could not have done without. “Sweetwater is probably one of the best ball handlers Paris Hi has ever seen. He was the pride of our team and the terror of our opponents. Bruce was one of the finest boys on the team. His highest attributes were his team spirit and cooperation. Joe was a tough rebounder in basketball. He was one of the scrappiest men ever to wear the Orange and Black. 37 SfniOfl HIGH CHffRLfflDfRS Patsy Harney, Marjorie Forsythe, Barbara Jordan, Alice Myers., Susan Allen, Carrie Farris.

JUNIOR HIGH BASKETBALL Tffllll nches CKC Crown; Greyhound Cage Squad Has That few Look At The Pivot Position The Paris Greyhound .cage squad is taking on a new look with a pivot man that’s under the ::ix foot mark—probably the smallest pivot man in the state —yet who is undoubtedly the “jumpin'ost” circle man that the majority of the state’s teams have ever run up against. Who 'is the “little”'lad9 Grab your baskets folks — it’s none other than Eugene Cain. He’s the new Greyhound pivot man. And he’s doing a whale of a good job has sparktx. 11 team to victo. „ hrough the last two Some how or another he goe.-: up after the rebounds—and gets hem. And from there, with his ability to go cither to left, his accuracy at JgM� Mom out of the JS e’s a lad dSf eS'XJB f,,om After the Owensboro-Paris game last night, the Red Devils Coach Lawrence McGinnis had nothing but nraise for the Paris team. He termed them a very good ball team and commented specifically on the sportsman- ship of the team. THE GREyHOUIIDS Since I was just a little lad, I’ve heard folks brag and say How everone knew howto shoot Down Old Kentucky way. Not only Dad and Son could shoot, But also Sis and Mom. They all could knock a squirrel’s eye out With a rifle called “Long Tom”. I guess this knack of shooting straight When there were bear and deer Was taught by fathers to their sons Down through the many years. Alas, the big game soon was gone. So guns were laid away, But still the boys to keep their aim, Shot marbles every day. Then came the basketball and net, It was a shooting game, It offered boys a lot of fun If they had a deadly aim. Then cam a guy named Jimmy Rose To coach the Greyhound team, And folks from everywhere soon found His boys were on the beam. They were as deadly with a ball As others had been with a gun, They’d shoot from every angle known While they were on the run. And soon their fame began to spread And folks from here and there Would huddle round the radio When a game was on the air. There is no greater thrill on earth- My heart stops beating when Rose’s shot is on the rim, and off, But Huston tips it in. It’s Cain to Hall and out to Rose One minute left in the game, But Rose is guarded, and cannot shoot. And passes back to Cain. 40 Huston, Smith and back to Rose And Rose he now gets set, The ball, it swishes through the air And drops down through the net. They’re in there fighting, all the way, Our Greyhounds, far from tame, Ten seconds, five, and there's the gun, They’ve won another game. There are players everywhere galore, But since the world began There has never been a team so great, Comparing man for man. The world may stand a thousand years, They still may play the game, But there will never be a team To match their speed and aim. My heart is heave when I think- A mist comes to my eyes- That soon these Greyhound pals must part, Shake hands and say goodbyes.

The Mitchell-Hodge Opinion Poll (Tommy and Rex) just shockedthe whole country with the amazing news that Ellis Hukill will be the next United States President. The “Teeny Box coffee shop, owned and operated by Sadie Mansfield and Kather- ine Kenny, is a howling success with the P. H. S. students of 1970.

The “Florida Times” reads, “Mrs. Eugene Cain, (MarionClay) Home Economics teacher at the University of Kentucky, is visiting in Miami to see her (Pro-Basket- ball) husband, Tooney Cain in the Kentucky-Florida all state game. Coach Gayle Rose and Mrs. Rose (Mary D. Everman) can’t understand why their two children, who are now students of P. H. S., are so wild. In an interview with Mrs. James Coons (Patsey Harney) and Mrs. Robert Stur- geon (Mattie Eades), they wholeheartedly exclaimed that every girl should be mar ried. Dr. Dorothy Laycock has been ousted from the Medical Profession for unlaw- fully extracting the wrong patient’s appendix.

Recently there was a grand opening of the decorating shoppe, “Joan’s Decor- ations. The Interior Decorator is Joan Burns. I JUST Cftn’T MM It is almost midnight, twenty minutes till, to be exact. The night is dark and sober. It is very still except for the rain pelting the roof top and trickling down the gutters. The entire household is asleep, that is everyone except me. What am I doing? I’m trying to think of a subject to write a theme on! Let me see, I could write a poem. No, that would take me a year. I’ll have to think of some- thing that would be easy for me to write. I have some topics but I just can’t use any of them. 'Tempus fugit’ and still I can’t think of a subject. What shall I do? I just can’t give it up because I’ve never missed handing in a theme. Maybe if I got up and paced the floor, scratch- ing my head, I would think of one. That is a good idea! Some people think much better when they do that. On second thought I don’t think I will pace the floor. Why? Because that floor is cold and I have a hard time getting my feet warm ! Be- sides, I feel that I am taking a cold. Well, I talk- ed myself out of that very quickly, didn’t I? I’ve got to get my mind back on my work. I could write on one of my relatives. No, I’ve al- ready written a theme on my grandmother, and I think that is enough. Maybe I’ll write a love story and entitle it “John’s Other Wife’s, Brother’s, Mother-in- law’s, Cousin's, Niece. Nope, I can’t do that! There are too many characters. I’d have to look up the family tree of all of John’s and “his other wife’s” relatives. Should I give it up as a bad job and go on to bed? No! there's a voice within me that keeps saying, “Think! You’re not so dumb that you can't think of a subject for a theme! You have never had any trouble before! Think!” Believe me this is certainly a “midnight dreary” and I am certainly “pondering weak and weary”! Not over “many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, but over a “measely” little old title for a theme. Heavens! It’s ten minutes after twelve, and still no subject. These themes every week are becoming a problem. Miss Noland will surely “fuss at me if I don’t have one and I don’t want her to get mad at me so early in the morning Well,----1 could fall on my knees right in front of her and beg forgiveness for not writing a theme. No, that won’t work, She might think I was men- tally ill if I did such an eccentric thing. I know! I could be the strong ruff ’n tuff” type. I would walk up with one eyebrow raised, a frown on my face, and say in a gruff, unpleasant tone, “See here, Miss Noland, I didn’t hand in a theme, see? I didn’t write one because I couldn’t think of a subject! See ? So, just forget that I didn’t hand in one, See?” Oh no! that would never work and besides I could never do that to a teacher. I haven’tgot the nerve. I’ll just have to struggle on! It’s twelve thrity, I’ll just have to give it up. My poor bones are aching and I’m longing for sleep. Oh! I just had a “brainstorm. It’s a wonder- ful idea for a theme! Well, now I’ve waited too late. My brain is never on time. I’ll have to write on that subject next week ! Good night and very pleasant dreams !

On through the Second and the Third grade, They their upward journey made. Then through the Fourth and Fifth they traveled As MORE OF THE MYSTERIES OF SCHOOL UNRAVELED. Their first graduation came after the Sixth And to enter Junior High they were all fixed. In the Seventh grade they made new friends As THEIR NEW ROUTINE BEGINS. Then on to the eighth they were sent Where many a toiling hour was spent. And now they have reached at last The Ninth or the Freshman Class. There they have a lot of work and fun And many their success have won- Such as the cheerleaders bright and cheery Who of yelling are never weary. Or as the boys who made the team. They might not be the best but they’ve got the steam. Some of them are Jimmy Withrow and Hart Sledd And Crump also helps them to get ahead. Fitzpatrick and Smith are the other two While Reynolds tells them what to do. And our cheerleaders so gay Are Joan McCord and Cindy Day. Our homeroom teachers are Hunter and Barr They also the History, Algebra, and Science teachers are. Miss Lovell teaches us our grammar TO SPEAK CORRECTLY AND NOT STAMMER. Our Latin teacher is Miss McClintock Whose class is as regular as a clock. For study period we have Mrs. Brown She always helps us settle down. So the Freshman Class this year Have nothing at all to fear. As they will all try their best To make this year better than the rest.

THE EIGHTH GRADE Once upon a time, about eight years ago, We entered elementary, known as “Murderers Row” Now we are the eighth grade, with a degree of fame And compared with Junior High, the first six years were tame. We’ve met our teachers and we get along quite well; Except when we’re over anxious to hear the period bell. Of these names, I’m sure you’ve heard. They cheer our colors true. Fugate, Robertson, and Marshall Are all well known to you Without our boys the basketball team Would really be quite off the beam. So we trudge along our road, learning as we go, Leaving behind a record that we’re sure will grow and grow.

This is our first time to change classes and have different teachers. They are Miss Purnell, Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Shirley and Miss Mitchell. We have two Junior High cheerleaders chosen from the Sev- enth Grade, which are Patty Dotson and Billy Joe Harney. It was a great honor to have one of our Seventh Grade boys-Paul Humphrey-to get an honorable mention in the Junior High Speech Contest. We have met our quoto in the Polio Fund,, Junior Red Cross, Community Chest and have also filled boxes for the Junior Red Cross. We have taken part in all the different Junior High activities.

This very inspi- rational and impressive ceremony, at which time those students selected for the honor of writing their names in the book, had its origin in 1928, just twenty two years ago. The students are selected from each of the three Junior High groups by the faculty on the basis of scholarship, loyalty, leadership, activities, attitude, character, cooperation, and courage. The emblem which is a four-leaf clover having the letters S, A, L, and C stand for these qualities. It is an attempt to emphasize, encourage and recognize these traits which enter into the making of worthwhile citizens of the future. In looking back over the long list of names enrolled in the Orange and Black Book over these twenty years, we see few who have failed live up to their trust. There are some who gave thier all in the last great war. There are well known lawyers, scientists, educators, West Point and Annapolis graduates, Phi Beta Kappas in colleges all over the country and many highly respected and useful citizens in the communtites where they are now living. This class of 1950 has had an especially honored place in the annals of the book. They have played an improtant part in scholastic achievement, speech work, athletics, musical events, and helpful activities of the school. It will be of great interest to watch their suc- cesses and accomplishments in the future. Those in the class of 1950 whose names appear in the book are : Lucinda Wilson, Louise Brown, Mary D. Everman, Bruce Miller, Martha Stewart, Ruby Langfels, Mattie Eades, Anne Marie Doyle, Ellis Hukill, and Billie Jane Shriver.
