Text from Pages 1 - 160 of the 1970 volume:

The Parsons Panther Parsons High School Parsons, West Virginia Volume 25 What Is School? . . . Foreword To the casual observer. Parsons High School may be only a monstrous-looking red brick building, which seems ancient” as compared to the new modern schools of other areas. The classrooms may be small and crowd- ed and the equipment may be limited; but, to us, the students of PHS, it has a completely different meaning. Those of us who are SENIORS will find it difficult to leave this spring. Most SENIORS, having spent half of their “waking hours” of the past six years at PHS, will naturally feel some sadness, along with pride and satis- faction as they walk through these halls for the last time. Laughter, shouting, confusion, disgust, and even dis- appointment fill the hours of each day as we rush from class to class. Of course, learning is the chief objective of any educational institution, but it cannot be singled out as the most important part; for how can it be separ- ated from the friendship, respect, and co-operation which go hand-in-hand with it? LOYALTY, COURTESY, BRAVERY, and REVERENCE - all these characterize a good citizen. What better way is there to obtain these qualities than by living and be- coming a part of Parsons High? Now that we, the SENIORS, are about to go out into the world, the PANTHER STAFF of 1970 wishes to recap- ture these unforgettable moments. I Jared Dip” Parsons ...the good-natured man with the winning smile? Because he has worked for and with us, because he has given gen- erously of his time, and talent—words are a poor substi- tute with which to express our sincere respect and admira- tion for this man. He voluntarily gave without financial assistance much of his time so that the PANTHER STAFF may compile the annual. U ith deep appreciation, we dedicate the 1970 PANTHER to you, Mr. Parsons, for having been so consid- erate and co-operative in taking pictures for us throughout the numerous years of PHS. . . . Mr. Parsons? What Is a School? WE NEED GREAT SOULS TOMAKE GREAT SCHOOLS. OR ALL WALLS WERE LAID IN VAIN, YOUTH TO ASK QUESTIONS, NOT MORE RULES, MORE THAN FACTS, TO MAKE PLAIN THE ROAD OF LIFE LIES JUST AHEAD. AND THERE IS YOUTH JUST AS THE DAWN, AND THE ROAD OF LIFE IS HERE TO TREAD. WE NEED GREAT SOULS TO LEAD US ON. 6 - DR. LEWIS EVANS Who Is the Principal? The school principal is a mighty force - To the child He is a friend and protector. To the teacher He is a guide and advisor. To the parent He is a counselor and neighbor. To the school superintendent He is a trusted officer. To the community He is a leader and interpreter. To the teaching profession He is a pioneer and builder. To democracy He is a loyal and active citizen. - author unknown A Master of Teac, Not a Master °f Teachers Who Is the Pupil? « THE TEACHER CAN LIGHT THE LATERN AND PUT IT IN YOUR HAND. BUT YOU MUST WALK INTO THE DARK. - WILLIAM H. ARMSTRONG A Child of God, ot a Tool of the State Who Is the Teacher? A parent gives life, but as parent, gives no more. A murderer takes life, but his deed stops there, A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops. - Henry Adams A Guide, Not a Guard What Is Learning? EDUCATION, IN THE DEEPEST SENSE, IS CONTINUOUS AND LIFELONG AND IN ES- SENCE UNFINISHABLE, AND IT IS TRUE ALSO THAT WHAT WE THINK WE ALREADY KNOW IS OFTEN LESS HELPFUL THAN THE DESIRE TO LEARN. - JAMES HILTON What Is the Discovery? BESIDE THE PLEASURE DERIVED FROM ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE. THERE LURKS IN THE MIND OF MAN. AND TINGED WITH A SHADE OF SADNESS, AN UNSATISFACTORY LONGING FOR SOMETHING BEYOND THE PRESENT - A STRIVING TOWARD REGIONS YET UNKNOWN AND UNOPENED. - HUMBOLDT QUESTIONING THE ANSWERS. NOT ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS. II What Is the Goal? Open M, Not Closed Issues What Is a School? THERE ARE FEW EARTHLY THINGS MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN A SCHOOL ... A PLACE WHERE THOSE WHO HATE IGNORANCE MAY STRIVE TO KNOW, WHERE THOSE WHO PERCEIVE TRUTH MAY STRIVE TO MAKE OTHERS SEE. - JOHN MASEFIELD Editor Chief Lovanna Belton Assistant Editor MYRNA MURRAY Business Manager SANDRA CARR The staff members, advisor, and the student body, have been more than co-operative. With much gratitude I would like to thank all the people that made this yearbook possible. We are hoping you will enjoy this annual as much as we enjoyed putting it out. t2 i?Tay St Zrnj Tucker County Board of Education (L. to R.) Robert Helmick; Ronald Knotts; Miss Helen Phillips, Secretary; Mrs. Patricia D. Michael, President; Allen D, Bucklew, Superintendent; Delton Mullenax. Allen D. Bucklew qow serves as Tucker County Superintendent of Schools. He was born in Monon- galia County; he has obtained a B. A, from Fairmont State, M.S. from West Virginia University, and has done additional work at East Carolina University. Mr. Bucklew is married to the former Jean Davisson, and they are the parents of four children; Allan, Stephen, Diana, and Lyn. They reside at 177 Maine Street in Parsons. Although his first love is coaching, he has held positions as an elementary teacher, principal, and superintendent prior to coming to Tucker County. Sports is his chief interest. He is affiliated with the Methodist Church, and is a member of the Masons and the Rotary Club. O Change-Overs Bruce Auvil (right) talks to Mr. Harper Mrs. Sharon Jones (left), and Robert P. Cutlip (right) Mid-year found several changes in Parsons High School, including new faculty members, new dress and behavior codes, and new rules and regulations. Bruce Auvil was made principal (acting) replacing Earl Sines. Mrs. Sharon Jones, who had been substituting in the school, was given a permanent position. Robert Cutlip, who recently graduated from Glenville State College, and Michael Krosney, having finished his college work at WVU, were also given teaching positions. Mrs. Jones teaches a variety of subjects; Mr. Cutlip, Geography 7, general business, current events; and Mr. Kros- ney, Science 7 and general science. Michael Krosney This page is sponsored by DR. and MRS. GUY H. MICHAELS. 17 Office Staff Mrs. Terry Hile, more commonly known as Judy to the students and teachers, is the present school secre- tary. This is Judy's fourth year as secretary at PHS. Judy graduated with the class of 1966 and was a mem- ber of the Tri-Hi-Y during her senior year. Throughout high school Mrs. Hile was a member of the FBLA, Student Council, and the Office Staff. Although Judy has 11 assistants, they all are kept busy - from giving out aspirins to running off stencils. Truly the office is the center of our present school life. Some go there with much pleasure, while others dread their visit. Mrs. Hile and her helpers are to be commended on their effort and the help they have given the school.

HAROLD SHAFFER Advisor - NHS Subjects - World History, American History Degree - MA, WVU We cannot escape history, said Abraham Lincoln, and the Social Studies Department makes this quotation evident in their classes. Students come to realize that a knowledge of the modern world and its governmental structures and ideologies is important to the life of each individual. To deepen each pupil's understanding of how this weald became what it is, classes in American history, world history, world geography, civics, and problems of democracy are taught. CHARLES LLOYD Advisor - Jr. High Hi-Y Subjects - POD, Geog- raphy 7 Degree - BA, Salem JEAN BURNS Advisor - FJA Subjects - English II, 111; Journalism Degree - MA, WVU Reading, W riting and Conference Maketh the Man 99 Francis Bacon In a fast-moving and ever-changing world, the im- portance of both spoken and written English becomes more apparent. The English Department works zealously to prepare each student in communication skills and to in- still an appreciation for literature and its relationship to life. The English teachers approach their classes with a determination to help them gain a good literary vocabul- ary, and to express themselves grammatically well. Parsons High students have the opportunity to excel: To flame higher and brighter. MARGARET RIGHT- MIRE Advisor - FNA Subjects - English 8, English 1 Degree - BA, D and E LONDA RIGNEY Advisor - Jr. High Tri- Hi-Y Subjects - English 7, History 8 Degree - BA, Glenville LOUISE WILLIAMS Subjects - English 8. IV Degree - MA, WVU Math . . . the Great Illusion ” Sir Normali Angeli SALLIE ENGLISH Advisor - FTA Subjects - General Math, Math 7 Degree - BA, D E In the fast-moving world of Parsons High, mathema- tics is playing an increasing role. The continuous demand of math for the accomplishment of exactness and logic in science urges many students to cultivate their math tal- ents and gain an abundance of practical knowledge. To aid the students in these stimulating electives is a primary objective of the school's growing math depart- ment. HOWARD ASHBY Subjects - Interme- diate Geometry, Algebra I, II; Busi- ness Math Degree - MA, WVU The Body, as Well as the Mind, Must Be Equally Strong Davifl Herretia DEL GLENN GAINER Subjects - H and PE 7,9, 10 Degree - BS, WVU The Physical Education Department realizes fully the importance of the late President Kennedy's program for physical fitness, and the truth in the statement that the body, like the mind, must be kept healthy. Each student is offered the opportunity to maintain and increase his physical fitness while developing a spirit of friendly competition. Through a program of planned seasonal sports, Parsons High students learn skills that will aid them in their search for diversions as they grow older. HOWARD MOORE Subjects - WVA Hist- ory, PE 8 Degree - BA, D E GRETA FAYE KUHL Subjects - English 11, Typing I, Bookkeeping Degree - AB, Fairmont State rrBusiness Can't Function Without Planning” Charles Chaney Deriving its name from BUSY, the Business Department lives up to its etymology. A bit of activity is always evident as individuals learn to type, to write shorthand, and to do book- keeping. Everyone has an op - portunity to benefit irom the Commercial Department: teachers have tests typed, and commercial students gain knowledge that will be helpful to them in the business world. BERTIE RENN1X Advisor - FBLA Subjects - Typing II, Short hand I, 11, Latin 1 Degree - BS, Wesleyan ROBERT FELTON Advisor - FFA Subjects - Farm Mech., Vocational Agri- culture, Science 8 Degree - MA.

Besides cooking, the girls also learn to sew. These practical skills and the knowledge also gained will be invaluable when they establish their own homes. Two of the most educational departments at Parsons High are vocational agriculture and farm mechanics, taught by Mr. Felton. Students whose formal education ends after graduation are particularly urged to enroll in these departments. Very satisfying careers will develop from the know- ledge gained in these departments. 22 GERALD RAY GALLAHER Subjects - Physical Science, Science 7 Degree - BS, WVU (noi shown) GLADYS H. ODELL Advisor - Jr. High Science Club Subjects - Biology, Science 7 Degree - MS, Syra- cuse U. (not shown) rrScience ... Is the Servant of Man99 Montaigne Keeping pace with the scientific age, the PHS Sci- ence Department strives to give knowledge of the real truth in this field. Sophomores begin the quest for truth in biology clas- ses, while freshmen, juniors, and seniors, choose the study of chemistry or general science. Girls in sophomore biology classes overcome their squeamishness under the watchful eyes of Mrs. Odell, while upper classmen under the supervision of Mr. Harper, concoct mixtures that on numerous occasions fill the halls with their unusual aromas. ELDON HARPER Advisor - Sr. High Science Club Subjects - Math 8, Chemistry Degree - BS, Salem GARY CHAMBERS Advisor - Music Club Subjects - Band, Glee Club Degree - BA, West Liberty State Many PHS students are learning a universal language - the language of music! For the first time in several years, the school has a Glee Club under the direction of Gary Chambers, who inspires the group with his well-trained voice. Under his direction the PHS Marching Band gives added color and enthusiasm to such school activities as thuses, athletic events, and special assemblies. Music is the Universal Language 99 Longfellow The Halt of Knowledge is to Know Where to Find it99 Some books are to be tasted, others to be swal- lowed, and some few to be chewed and digested, said Francis Bacon. Too frequently the 4,000 books in the PHS library are just tasted; however, many students dig deeper with a genuine thirst for know- ledge and understanding of subjects in many fields. Mrs. Mullenax and her 13 library assistants are constantly and attentively waiting to aid any student or teacher during a 9;00-until-3:45-library day. RUTH ANN MULLENAX Advisor - Student Council Subject - Librarian Degree - BS, WVU Self discovery, „ i .11 Self Direction, in and Self Adjustment ” For the first time in the history of PHS, the faculty in- cludes a guidance counselor. Mrs. Bucklew's first love is her work, but her many other interests include caring for four lively children, sewing, and playing bridge. Also ranking high in her favorite pastimes is playing the piano and organ. The school counselor is always glad to sit down with the students and discuss their current problems, help them make decisions, and understand more about themselves. She en- courages each pupil to engage in lifelong planning and coun- sels them on how to achieve it. Her help has inspired many throughout PHS. activities 26 John D.

I hope it doesn’t cause you any complications with your deadline, but I’ve had several conferences and meetings to attend recently and have fallen just a bit behind. Though all the girls seem to well qualify and equally lovely, I have chosen Sandra Kay Carr. Please extend my best wishes to all the candidates, and I’m sure the Yearbook will be a big success. Thank you again for the opportunity, and I’m sending along the photograph you requested. Sincerely. Miss Lovana Belton John D. Rockefeller IV Panther Editor Parsons High School Parsons.

They have marched in four consecutive parades this year. During football season they did two twirling fire-baton routines at home games. At the present the girls are working for new uniforms for band members and themselves. They are also trying to raise enough money for service jackets for the senior majorettes.

JANE AVERY FISCUS History of the Class of ’70 Taking time for a backward glimpse into the paths that we have traveled in the past four years, each of us re- calls the many pleasant experiences at PHS. 1967 Roaring into PHS that year, the Freshman Class had 93 members. Students chosen to represent them in the Student Council were Craig Holler, Barbara Barr, Shirley Rosier, and Chester (Buddy) Pitzer. Elected class of- ficers were president, James Gilmore; vice-president, Chester Pitzer; secretary, Kennette Hebb; treasurer, Doug Owens; and cheerleader, Kennette Hebb. Their sponsors were Mrs. Hazel Bennett, Mrs. Bertie Rennix, Howard (Dale) Moore and Robert Walters. They started out their money-making plan by collecting class dues. 1968 With 84 members, the Sophomores began early with the money-making drive for the Junior-Senior Banquet, by selling Christmas wrapping paper and continuing to collect class dues. Marilyn Nester, Brent Bennett, and Chester (Buddy) Pitzer were members of the Student Council that year. Officers this year were president, Gary Haller; vice-president, Lovanna Belton; secretary, John Nestor; treasurer, Doug Owens; and cheerleader, Myrna Murray. Sponsors were Mrs. Hazel Bennett, Mrs. Bertie Rennix, and Robert Walters. 1969 The class of '70 started another PHS year with 68 members. Chosen to represent the Juniors were Barbara Barr, Buddy Pitzer, and John Nestor. Elected as class officers were president, Lovanna Belton; vice-president. Buddy Pitzer; secretary, Marilyn Nestor; treasurer, Aleta Shahan; and cheerleader, Kennette Hebb. Sponsors for that year were Mrs. Hazel Bennett, Mrs. Bertie Rennix and Howard (Dale) Moore. During that year the Juniors worked hard at selling sweatshirts, and they were also in charge of the pop and candy machines. 1970 At the beginning of their Senior year at PHS, there was an enrollment of 72 students in this class. Student Council representatives were Chester (Buddy) Pitzer, Anne Smithson, and James Gilmore. As their final officers they elected a complete female managing body: president. Marilyn Nestor; vice-president, Anne Smithson; sec- retary, Myrna Murray; treasurer, Barbara Barr; and cheerleader, Kennette Hebb. Sponsors remained the same as the Junior year. This page is sponsored by W. DEL ROY HARNER 57 Let us take a journey down the mystical path of the TIME TUNNEL and visit the lives of our many 70 grads in the year 2000!!??!? WANDA SUMMERFIELD has received her nursing degree and is now doing her duty by serving with 20 young interns at WVU Hospital, while poor SHARON PENNINGTON isn’t quite so lucky. Her current occupation is serving as nurse at an insane asylum where she is doing well (considering)! Serving as Skipper in the U.S. Navy, MONTY HEDRICK is weak with the mop. Also serving our country is JIM HARRIS who has advanced to the rank of general and finds it hard keeping his men in line. Professors at Fairmont State College are LOVANNA BELTON and PEGGY MILLER. Lovanna is the first redhead to teach journalism there since 1921, and Peggy's students find her very moody these days. The faculty of PHS has recently expanded to include a new replacement for Harold Shaffer - JIM GILMORE! BETTY DAVIS has captured her Buck” in Beling- ton during dear season; in a recent survey BLANCHE DAVIS has found that little bunnies increase about eight every one-and-one-half months. Poor Bunny! CLARICE BENNETT, in competition with Neil Armstrong, was America’s first moon struck lady. In the same year BRYAN SPONAUGLE will be a pros- pect for Jolly Green Giant of the Year. On her second honeymoon, BRENDA JONES plans to go to the moon in her 1968 Satellite; furthermore her sister-in-law, NAREL JONES, has been packing for months to move to her new residence on Location. Winner of the 2000 cross-country honda race is JIM BAVA, urged on by his back-seat driver, DONNA PLUMLEY. Another grad from the class of '70 to earn fame and fortune is BRENT BENNETT, winner of the 1995 Olympic broad jump. ANNE SMITHSON and BUDDY PITZER have put their investments together and have established the Smitty and Budweiser Company. To go along with the rest of the menu, you can always get a super-duper burger at CLYDE PLUM'S Burger Chef. If you don’t care for this, you can visit RANDY NELSON with his Cheerio factory, and FRANK WAT- RING and BARBARA BARR who have just announced the opening of FRANKlin's BARBecue. In My Crystal MIKE BAREFOOT has made his permanent resi- dence in Hambleton where he and Ellie have just announced the birth of a new foot in the family. Another '70 grad to join the ranks of parenthood is ROBERTA EVICK who has recently been nominated the Most Patient Mother of the Year during the Holly Meadows Parents Convention. In the field of musical entertainment we find KEVIN LEWIS and BILL BENNETT. Kevin plans to star with Liberace, and may be joined by Bill after he finishes his engagement at Caesar's Palace. This dynamic dual may play Yakety Sax as an encore. Three '70 grads have just joined New York's jet set. They are MARTHA SELL, who has recently been hired by New York's top model agency. Powers, Inc., to demonstrate the latest mod fashions, and DANNA STRAWDER, who is showing real enthusiasm for her upcoming appointment as head designer to the Itsy-Bitsy-Teeny-Weeny Bikini Company. We also find BARBARA SHIPMAN, known to all her fans as Hollywood, starring on Broadway. Two outstanding achievers in the Wide World of Sports are CARL LIPSCOMB, who received the largest trophy in the world for the knock-out of Cassius Clay in a ring-side event, and MIKE ROY, who was the winner of the 2000 Champion boxing league with a 58 Ball I See . . . record of two black eyes with every fight. Also to receive recognition in this field are KENNY KNOTTS and KAREN ROOT. Kenny was given the award of Heavy Weight Champion of the Year, and Karen is now one of the greatest weightlifting women in the world. MARION BILBY is now married to an aspiring archi- tect and is living in a lovely mansion in Beverly Hills, while RONDA SIMMONS has made her home in Brazil and is married to a handsome Brazilian doctor, whom she met while serving as a nurse in the South Ameri- can mission fields. As we gaze further into the crystal ball, we find that poor LINDA TEAGARDEN has established no permanent residence, as she can't decide whether to live in Parsons or Thomas; to beat all, MARLAYNE KALAR, owner of Gentle Ben, is making her home in Yellowstone National Park. One of our cartoon pals is the one and only LONNIE NESTOR, who is accepting a job as Yogi Bear and finds it easy to play the role. Taking the part of Bullwinkle the Moose and Rocky the Flying Squir- rel are MARVIN NESTOR and ELDON PHILLIPS. Seeing that RICHARD ROHRBAUGH has been mak- ing plenty of dough at his Pillsbury factory, SHIRLEY ROSIER has decided to manufacture her own Carrs. GARY HALLER was the 2000 winner of the Indian- apolis 500, where his horse was given the name. Blue Lightening; but JOHN NESTOR made it a close race with his heel-and-toe group. He is now known as the fastest feet in shoes. Everybody always looks forward to Christmas time ahead of the season, for this is when RANDY PHILLIPS is acknowledged. After all, what would Santa do without Rudolph! Our own little Bonanza owner is PAT CASSIDY, who is the owner of the largest spread of weeds in North America. Trying desperately to buy this spread is the World's Greatest Golfer, SHIRLEY PHIL- LIPS, She wants to turn it in to her own Firestone Golf Course. JOHN PARSONS and MYRNA MURRAY have teamed up for a world-wide broadcasting campaign; critics have recently announced them tops over Huntley and Brinkley’s nation-wide news, even!! Appearing on TV in the new Donna Reed show is MRS. JUNIOR REED. Starring with her grandfather Buck is PEGGY OWENS, singing with the Buckaroos. MARILYN NESTOR 'or should we say Mrs. Bunnell) is now wearing a dainty set of matrimonial rings instead of the big, familiar yarn-garnished '69 class ring. CRAIG W1LFONG, a computer graduate and coach, has recently announced his sparkling new invention, Referee Robot, which considerably lessens the strain while coaching the Los Angeles Lakers. Two '70 grads to really get into your hair are SANDI CARR and BARBARA HOVATTOR. Sandi is now assistant barber at Jene's Barber Shop, and Barbara has recently received an award for the world's fastest hair-growing tonic in the world. PATTY OURS' 6’3 fiance has taken up the hobby of wood-crafting in order to provide her with a pair of much-needed stilts. LINDA POLING has just established her home in Rosendorf where she is under the management of Nestor, Inc. We find NINA SCHADEWALD, the wife of an industrious million- aire, living in Africa, where money grows on trees. KENNETTE HEBB has found the new Bums Earth Station at Etam to be in very good condition, while ALETA SHAHAN finds it hard to resist the good taste of Snyder's potato chips. KATHRYN KING and SHIRLEY NINE became very popular after Kathryn became known as Midget of the World and Shirley changed her name from Shirley Nine to Shirley 10? ROSE TURVEY spends her leisure time trying to convince the coach of the Harlem Globetrotters that she is capable of playing pro-basketball with them. Recently appearing before Congress are DALE HEDRICK and CRAIG HOLLER. Dale is trying to get a patent for his new Frances doll, while Craig is appealing for a larger-but-still-cheap Volkswagen. MITCHELL WILSON has finally discovered that pep pills exist, and in addition to pepping him up, they also dissolved some of his bashfulness. Owner of Warren Mitchell's store in Hendricks is DENZIL BOOTH, where he specializes in selling Navy bell bottoms and boots at low, low prices. ANITA V1ROSTEK finds it a great honor to be named Miss Bookworm of Worchester, Massachu- setts. • • • Time Ronda S. Buddy P. Marian B. 60 Long, Long __ Donna P. Brenda J. Does it have a temperature?

The class is striving to make money by selling candy and operating pop and chip machines, with the Junior-Senior banquet as its goal.

These classes will follow the high standards set down by the upperclassmen. Together they are 195 strong. The Junior High was in charge of the Christmas assembly. They acquired four new teachers this year: Mrs. Rigney, Mrs. Odell, Coach Gainer, and Mr. Gallaher. At the beginning of the year, the Seventh Graders, feeling small and lost in the big halls, struggled to find their way to class. To confuse them more when they did find the desired room, they had to ask their teacher's name. The Eighth Grade Student Council representatives are Diane Pennington, Jack Hockman, and Regina Swisher. The Seventh Grade representatives are John Felton, Vickie Flanagan and Garv GutshaU.

Future Nurses of America Once a month each of the FNA girls spends two hours at the Tucker County Hospital in volunteer work, which is their main purpose. Each year these energetic girls re- gister alumni at the annual Homecoming football game. You may find them doing other chores, such as selecting a Future Nurse of the Month. The highlight of the year's activities is a trip to tour a medical institution. Mrs. Margaret Rightmire, sponsor of the Future Nurses of America, has been an inspiring personality to these girls for seven years. Under her guidance the girls are doing an excellent job as aids at the hospital. In the past years she has seen several girls enter the medical field. FIRST ROW: (L. toR.)J. Kalar, S. Rhodes, N.

Gary has been an outstanding manager and his assistance will be great- ly missed in the following years to come. For the first time in PHS history the coaching staff has been extended to three members. The newest coach is Del Gainer, who is a graduate of West Vir- ginia University. While at WVU, he played defensive halfback under the coach - ing of Jim Carlen. LONNIE NESTOR NEIL KISAMORE FRANK WATRING CRAIG WILFONG The Fighting Panthers FIRST ROW: (L. to R. ) N.

We demonstrated a strong of- fensive attack, which accounted for the 22 points. Our Panthers felt the sting of defeat in their second game against the Mighty Mounties of Beall High School. Par- sons played an outstanding game but found their opposi- tion to be too much, as the final count ended 20-28. The purple and gold” came back to a winning streak when they defeated St. Francis of Morgantown 30-0. PHS had no trouble throughout the evening as St. Francis gave them little opposition. Going into the fourth game of the season, Parsons was crushed by the Pioneers of Masontown in a 14-42 loss. Due to the amount of injuries, the Panthers never did get a good start in the game. For the first time in many years Parsons and Elkins clash- ed on the gridiron. This proved that the Tigers were far too much for the Panthers, as the game ended with the score 6-60. Our annual Homecoming game on October 3, extended the Panthers losing streak as they played an outstanding game only to come upon the losing end 0-22. The Panthers journeyed to Kingwood to find a strong Kingwood team edging for a victory. Parsons scored 34 points but found out it wasn't enough as the final score showed Kingwood on top 34-45. Closing their season, the Parsons had a heartbreaking loss to Marlinton High school 10-26.
