We are providing more people with more education than ever be- fore in Amerioan History, and yet we are in a most critical period in our national life. If we are to retain our lead scientifically, culturally and politi- cally, we must make a much greater use of our educational opportun- ities. Stelman Harper, Superintendent Tucker County Schools TUCKER COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION PARSONS HIGH SCHOOL HISTORY OF PARSONS HIGH SCHOOL Parsons High School was founded in 1914 and was located in the building which is presently Parsons Grade School. The graduating class of 1914 consisted of only seven members while the largest class to graduate from PHS was in 1933 when ninety people received diplomas. During the school year of 1923-4, W. K. Rice, then principal of PHS. changed the school name to Blackfork District High School; however, it was changed back to Parsons High School the follow ing year. Perhaps the greatest honor ever known by PHS was in 1934 when its basketball team won the state championship by defeating Elkins 33-30 in the finals. The school was moved to its present site in 1939 shortly after the new building was completed. The total number of graduates from PHS to date is 2,413.

All were a little starry-eyed and just a bit nervous with thoughts of the four years to come. All were determined to make good, and the class worked hard to be a success. In sports, we had several boys out for football and basketball. In the class basketball tournaments, the seniors defeated the freshman boys, and the junior class won the girls' tournament. The major event of the year was the freshman party in the spring. The class officers were: Gary Corcoran, President; Denny Corbin, Vice. President; James K. Lambert, Secretary-Treasurer; Kay Brady, Song Leader; Judith On and Nora Flanagan, Cheerleaders; Mrs. Rennix and Mr. Michael, Class Sponsors; blue and white, Class Colors; red rose. Class Flower. Entering our sophomore year we felt a greater self-confidence and began to engage in more extra-curricular activities. In sports, several of our class members won letters in football, basketball, and baseball; while in the class basketball tournaments our boys emerged victorious, though the senior girls de- feated all comers in the girls tournament. The highlights of the year were a sophomore play entitled Who Gets the Car Tonight? and a late spring picnic at Camp Horseshoe. The one event that maned the year was the death of Denny Corbin, who was our best-liked student. A plaque was placed in the auditorium in his memory, though none who knew him will ever forget him. The officers elected at the beginning of the year were; Gary Corcoran, President; Denny Corbin, Vice President; William Hanlin, Secretary-Treasurer; Kay Brady, Song Leader; Judy Orr and Nora Flanagan, Cheerleaders; Mrs. Rennix and Mr. Michael, Sponsors; blue and white. Class Colors; and red rose, Class Flower; Motto; Ever Forward. Our third year in high school was crammed with various events. In the early part of the year we had a party to start the year's activities. We sponsored the pop, ice cream, and candy stands to raise money for the Junior-Senior Ban- quet. which took place on May 11, 1957. The theme of the banquet was Moonlight and Roses. In Football, many of our boys were now on the first team, and several made the basketball squad. Our girls were defeated once more in the class tournaments, but the junior boys won after tough battles with the sophomores and freshmen. During the second semester, five of our members were chosen into the National Honor Society; Jackson Auvil, Gary Corcoran. Lela Haddix, James K. Lambert, and Judy Orr. Mary Sturms and William Turner were chosen to represent the class at the Annual WVEA Know Your State Goverment Day in Charleston. The final event of the year was a picnic and swim at Twin Springs. The class officers remained the same except for Olive Kimbleton as Song Leader, William Hanlin as Vice President, Coach Gutshall as Co-Sponsor, and James K. Lambert as reporter. In September, 1957, we enrolled in Parsons High School for the last time. With our class composed of 89 dignified seniors, we left all thought of money- making to the juniors (who are sure to need it) while we thought of graduation and the future Well represented on the football and basketball squads, we hoped to help win added trophies for Parsons High School. As spring drew near, we looked forward to the Junior-Senior Banquet. Then suddenly it has come and gone and graduation day is here. It seems to have come almost too quickly, and we wonder where the last four years have gone. It seems only yesterday that we were freshmen - and yet so long ago! We leave you. Parsons High, with sorrow and eagerness - sorrow because we must say farewell; eagerness to look into our future.

The first regular publication for Parsons High appeared in 1922 under the name of The Echo. Harry Lambert, now a prominent lawyer in Charleston, was elected to serve as first editor, and Hubert Lake, vice president of the Tucker County Bank, served as business manager. Members of the P.H.S. faculty that were also on the staff are Mrs. Pauline Harris and Miss Grace Bright. In 1934 the name of the paper. The Echo, was changed to The Parsons Echo, a name it retains to this very day, 24 years later. The present staff of The Parsons Echo is composed of juniors and seniors who publish an issue each six-week period. For 36 years The Parsons Echo has served many people and it is our hope that it will continue to do so many years to come.
