Carol Cary Advisor..........Gary Richard '? y%e(v xct Another school year of 1962- 1963 is now over, with many of you looking forward to returning to PCHS this fall. As a lasting memory book to the students, we, the annual staff present THE INDIAN. THE INDIAN is a collection of the many activities, organizations and clubs, and special events of the past school year. Each page has been carefully planned so your memories will be renewed each time you see that page. The Co-Editors hope you will enjoy the annual as much as we have enjoyed publishing it for you.

The Senior Class voted that these two sponsors had contributed much of their school time as well as their personal time to help make our class one of the best classes to walk down the halls of Pawnee City High School. We would at this time, with pride and pleasure, officially like to dedicate the 1963 INDIAN to them. Mr. Gary Richard came to Pawnee two and one-half years ago. During that time, he has contributed his guidance and friendship to each and every member of our class. We have grown to appreciate his guidance, and we are sure our class will not be the last to receive his fine leadership. Mr. Richard will always be remembered for his good manners, good grooming, and his fine teaching abilities. We will all re- member his fine personality, and each and everyone of us wili miss him greatly. r Je _ a . - ‘- - ( 943 Mrs. Wilma Stevens has been teaching in the Pawnee City High School for six years. As Seniors, we can look back on four years of fine leadership and understanding. Mrs. Stevens is known to all the high school students as Frau Stevens, because many of us have taken German under her. Pawnee City High School can always be proud of her for her fine teaching. Mrs. Stevens will always be remembered for her considerate understanding and her ability to get along with every student.' Frau Stevens will always be remembered by the Seniors of '63, and she will be greatly missed by each and every one of us. With fond memories. ANNUAL STAFF Carol Jean, Phyllis, Carolyn, Karen 'patting heaved As the autumn leaves begin to fall, PCHS opens wide its doors to all students as the new school year begins. The green Frosh soon become familiar with the halls of ivy and are initiated to the routine even further by members of the Senior Class. Initiation soon becomes a memory, and thoughts turn to the next thrilling football game. The days pass quickly, filled with Lyceums, dances, and those hundred and one little things that seem to pop up from out of nowhere to occupy time. All too soon the football season draws to a close—and the night of Homecoming is upon us. It is truly a night to remember. The Indians scalp our Cardinal opponents, and the Homecoming King, Queen, and attendants are crowned in high fashion. After many nights of little sleep, the Juniors show a wonderful display of talent at their play: THE PEOPLE VERSUS MAXINE LOWE. It is a great hit and their many hours of work are well re- warded. Next on the agenda is the Grade School Operetta, and as the last leaves of autumn tumble slowly to the ground, we reluctantly turn another page, leaving behind all of those glorious memories that fall had to offer. 3 David Blecha Don Bloss Linda Borcher Joyce Boydston Donna Cary Laura Allbright Janet Dorrance Duane Dorsch Diane Droge 'pxt hmeK Jack Colwell t John Davis Good grief!

Those out for football but not pictured are: Rodney Hoffman, Don Inglis, and Student Manager, Byford Hoffman. Desire and determination were two of the factors present on this years, 40 man football squad. Under the fine coaching of Mr. Smith and Mr. Volz, the team gained a deeper insight into the game. Led by seven upperclassmen, the Indians finished the season winning one game and losing eight. There were many bright spots in the season. Probably the highlight of the season was the Indians Homecoming victory over their rival school, Humboldt. Parts of other games showed that the Indians were steadily growing better.

Our basketball team has gotten off to a great start, we really have something to be happy about. The Christmas spirit fills everyone’s heart as he shops for a toy to admit him to the FHA Christmas Dance. Songs of peace, and good will toward men float over the building as the vocal department prepares for the Vesper Services. Santa comes and Santa goes and the winter months stretch ahead of us, broken only by report cards band concerts, basketball games, snowball fights, lyceums, blizzards and another report card. Our basketball team has really come through for us and the cheering crowds were highly rewarded by their fine representation at the Southeast Border Tournament. Into the minds filled with thoughts of ice, snow and dreary tests comes a new and interesting thought. Our Carnival offers a welcome relief and is met with high spirits. It is truly a gala affair and we crown our King and Queen of hearts amid an enchanted Fairyland. The days grow longer, the sun begins to melt the snow, the carols disappear from the hallowed halls, as Mother Nature turns over a new leaf, we too wait expectantly to see what the future has to offer. 19 Roger Peacock 5'U Senior Southeast Border Confer- ence and Southeast Conference Teams WIN 14 r.c. 43 Tecumseh 52 r.c. 37 Humboldt 36 r.c. 61 Lewiston 36 r.c. 52 Wilber 40 r.c. 77 Wymore 44 r.c. 39 Falls City 58 r.c. 66 Tecumseh 73 r.c. 65 Wymore 55 r.c. r.c:. 72 49 Syracuse Humboldt 55 48 r.c. 42 Tecumseh 63 This was Coach Smith's fourth, and most successful year as head basketball coach.

It seems that the greatest part of the season is devoted to the honorable seniors. They do not fail us. The days, and weeks, of practice come to an end with the Senior play, The Mouse that Roared, which is presented to a large, delighted crowd. Once again the vocal department comes up with a fine display of vocal talent. The Spring Review; and the band ends its year with another concert. When Easter vacation is announced, the students offer little resistance. The days of vacation break the monotony of school, and we return to face whatever comes in high spirits. District music contest calls for another month of hard work and preparation, but the practices are well worth the time spent. Pawnee returns home with 11 superior ratings in the vocal department and 8 in the instrumental. Days of secretive preparation and furtive planning pave the way to the wonder- ful Junior-Senior Banquet to honor the de- parting Seniors. The banquet provides memories galore, and will always be re- called fondly by the class of '63. The Senior Sneak Day was successfully carried out, and the class spent two wonder- ful days in the Ozarks. They returned sun- burned and peeling after much, much fun. Baccalaureate comes, and with it the knowledge that soon the Seniors of '63 shall leave our hallowed halls forever. Class Day is a big success, and the Ozark Opry is met with approval by stu- dents and parents. The history, will, and prophecy are read, and then only the big day remains. All too soon the 24th of May arrives. Down the aisle in their white and blue caps and gowns come our Senior class of '63, and we bid them farewell for the last time. This is a sad day, but as with the spring itself, a day of great expectations. May the sun always shine and the flowers always bloom profusely in the lives of our 33 grad- uates.

Although school is out for another year, the students of PCHS are far from being inactive. The summer months are spent in many different ways. We are busy with sports, summer school, business school, working, loafing, preparing ourselves for college in the fall, the armed services, and many other activities. We will receive our annual in the summer, and later the football boys will begin to prepare for another football season. The Pawnee Band marches in the Memorial Day parade and in the parade during the County Fair. The varsity and reserve cheerleaders are busy selecting their outfits and trying out lit new yells. Each Monday night for six weeks the band practices to give an outdoor concert on Wednesday nights. Many of the home ec. and agricultural students are involved in the county fair activities. This event is usually held in August. Soon autumn will be upon us, and with it another year of school activities. Although the Class of '63 will no longer walk the halls of PCHS, the memories of our school years will remain with us forever, and will be cherished forever in this annual.
