MR. AND MRS. ROBINSON DEDICATION We, the senior class of 1964, acknowledge with grateful appreciation the patience and guidance given in the field of music to our class and to the entire school by Anna and Alton Robinson. It is with great pride that we dedicate this, our yearbook, to them.

3[. Kennedy JHetmirial On a usually restless Friday afternoon, we all sat in our classes. It was the last period of the day. In the senior English class a quiet groan went up as we heard the loudspeaker come on. The groan ceased immediately at the words of Mr. Furtwengler, our principal: I have just received a news bulletin that President Kennedy ... has been assassinated. There is no word yet as to whether or not he is dead. I will let you know as soon as anything comes through. After an awful, shocked gasp, silence filled the room for a few seconds; then came the first few stricken words. Oh my God, no! What? It can't be! Why? Who would do something like that? Then came speculations from some as to what might happen, who would have done this thing, the state of the country as a whole. Others of us just sat in dumbfounded silence. The speaker rasped again as we heard reports from the office radio. At one point the announcer said, If there is any time when we should all pray for our President, the time is now. As I closed my eyes, I didn't actually see the others lower their heads; but I knew they did. Oh, God, please don't let him die. That was all I could think of, repeated only once, plain and simple. A blast of static jerked my head up and the whole room tensed as we heard these four simple words, The President is dead. No one said anything now. Heads lowered and tears welled up in the eyes of a whole nation. The bell rang, marking the end of a period and the end of an era; we filed back to our home rooms and solemnly headed home. Welostagreat man—a man of determination, courage, statesmanship. A man of the people of America; a man who loved youth and was actually one of us, the youth. The students of Pemetic would like to acknowledge this great man. In return for the respect he gave us, we give to him love, admiration and respect. In return for his high example and great leadership, we, who hold the country in our hands, give to him a promise of protecting it and making it prosper and grow to be an even better land than it is. We promise to take the responsibility that we, as citizens, have to our country and use it well. The memory of John F. Kennedy will last many long years as we try to follow his example and ideals best expressed by his own words: Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage--and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world. s
