WE DEDICATE • • • MRS. JEAN BURNS It is an honor to pay tribute to one who has become such a genuine part of Par- sons High School. We are extremely grateful for her en- couragement, her hard work, and unself- ish devotion, which she has given us throughout the year. It is our hope that by dedicating our yearbook to our Sponsor, Mrs. Burns, we have been able to express our gratitude and our sincere appreciation for all that she has done as a teacher, advisor, and friend. Her guidance and understanding not only in her vocation but also in her avo- cations has earned her a place of highest esteem in all our hearts. Mrs. Burns received her AB degree from Fairmont State and Master’sde- gree from West Virginia University. As a teacher of English and journal- ism, this dear lady does her best to keep the PANTHER Staff and ECHO Staff working. In this picture she is shown at the over-stuffed filingcabi- net, a place where she is often seen. Her famous quote goes along with her zealous work - “We have a dead- line to meet. A

EDITOR: MARLENE ROACH Although I have felt incapable many times this year, I have thoroughly enjoyed this wonderful opportunity of being editor of our 1964 yearbook. All of the staff have been very energetic and responsible. Margaret and Jeff worked especially hard along with me at making this the best yearbook possible with our limited knowledge and help. We hope you will enjoy this yearbook and appre- ciate our work. ASSISTANT EDITOR: MARGARET FOLAND JEFF FELTON The financing of the Panther has meant much hard work, hours of walking the streets, darting in and out of stores, and talking fast. Most of all a friendly smile and salesmanship is accredited to Jeff. He has done a marvelous job of selling ads to many business people and business establishments. Even after ’’No's , Jeff has succeeded in going on and getting much of what it takes to get the PANTHER published. His two able assistants, Elaine Hamner and Susan Sherman have aided him in planning the ads in the back of the book. Many thanks to all three of these members of the staff. It has been a privilege to work with Marlene and all the members of the staff in com- piling the 1964 PANTHER. We have all done our best to fill this book with memories that will grow fonder as the years go by. I sincerely hope that, as you turn the pages of this book, you will enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed helping to prepare it. BUSINESS MANAGER: 5
