Only a man with a character stronger than that of any normal man. a stamina which can handle all the pressure associated with the job. Mr Jack McKeever has somehow managed to keep his head above water, while balancing scheduling, payroll, student activity and a hoard of other school-related events which might totally destroy a lesser man. No man could handle the job as principal of P.S.J A High School better than the Big Mac!” 73 With a school population as large as ours, there are many duties and needs which must be attended to daily. As one person alone cannot handle all these needs. Principal Jack McKeever has four very able assistants to call on. They are left to right. Nieves Garza. Charles Cain, Hilda Garza and Leonel Barerra These assistant principals take care of everything from fund raising projects to discipline Mr Garza handles the student activities and school calendar Mr Cam is in charge of attendance and field trips Miss Garza handles the school curriculum and Mr. Barerra takes care of audiovisual equipment Office nepers are a boost to our administration They are Lto R Nedma Rodriguez and Norima Car-ntlo Mrs Mora takes on the job as secretary and is not olten seen on campus because she's always in the office As lor Mrs Mettlach. she's boned in the back office worrying about files, transcripts, and other paper work • This year our counselors did a great job in helping the students get through the school term. This year our administration has developed a new system in counseling. Counselor assignments for all grade levels are as follows. Mr Alvarez is for students with their last name beginning with A through D; Mr Garza is with E through G; Mr Badillo is with H through N; Mr. Zuniga with O through R. and Mrs Thomas with S through Z. Our counselors are L to R Mr R Zuniga fW T Badillo. Mr M Thomas. Miss D Hererra. Mrs L Alvarado. Mr J Garza yyjMr R Alvarez 74 Teachers — Lucy Alvarado PAU Mg Coon Odiha Arredondo PAU Math Elvis J.

But who sculpts the teachers9 The principals, students or the teachers themselves9 Or do they go unsculptured with only the carving they received in their high school and college years to guide them9 There is no doubt that whoever guides them in their education at PSJA. they continue to do an outstanding job—one that everyone is proud of.

These players are commended for what they have achieved As they set off to start a new life their memories of PSJA will always be a part of them.

For the first time since 1959. the Bears clinched a district basketball title, the second district crown for PSJA in 78-79. The team, early season favorites to take the 28-4A crown, overwhelmingly took it away from other contenders with a 28-3 season record. Under the careful guidance of Coach Robert Flores, the Bears started out the season in high gear and continued to the top only to be stopped by Corpus Christi Carroll in Bi-District play. But PSJA fans know who's number one —8-E-A-R-S! 124 3 + 4 + 5 + 10+11 +12 + 14 + 20 + 33 + 34= ! Winning the district crown was mighty fine in 79 for the Bear cagers. From the start of the season the Bears were predicted to win the title. They did so with a 15-1 district season, losing only to Harlingen in the second half of district play. The Bears started out the season winning scrimmages against Edcouch-E!sa and Los Fresnos. The Cagers also scampered away with the E-E Tournament by defeating Sharyland 57-45. The Bears then took the Brownsville Tourney by defeating arch rival Mission 57-41. When district play began. PSJA continued victorious to what was to become an 18 game winning streak But old nemesis Mission managed to pull out a close one in the Sonic Tri-City Tournament by winning 55-53. However, the Bears returned to their winning ways by taking the first half crown with a perfect 8-0 record. When second half play began. PSJA continued to run and gun their way to victory by defeating all 28-4A teams before falling to Harlingen. But our team came back when it counted most to claim undisputed possession of first place by defeating McAllen in a crucial game 69-45. The next stop was against Corpus Christi Carroll in bi-district. Five busloads and countless carloads of PSJA spirited students trekked to Corpus Christi to support the Bears. And while our team fell short of victory to the Tigers. 66-46. the Bears brought home a deep sense of pride and spirit for all Bear fans.

Rick Cantu—3 126 Nandy Cabrera . . . A three-year varsity member. Nandy was the Bears best all around player during his years at PSJA. His ability to drive up the middle as well as shoot from all areas of the court helped propel the Bears to many victories, including this year's 28-3 season. Nandy. second highest scorer for the team, with 271 points a 16.93 average, was named to the Texas Third Team All-State Basketball squad, an accomplishment truly deserved Other honors garnered by Number 4 during the season included being named to the All-District first team in 28-4A play and All-Tourney in the Edcouch-Elsa, Brownsville and Sonic Tri-City Tournaments. He also scored a season high 33 points m second half play against Mission. Naody Cabrera=r4 127 Freddy Ramirez . . . In his first year as a varsity member. Freddy proved to be an integral part of the basketball team. His most important assets were his speed and his ability to fast break. Freddy, a 5-9 junior, scored 102 district points during the season, an average of 6.375 per game. He was also awarded the distinction of receiving All-District Honorable Mention in 28-4A play. As the only returning letterman from this season. Freddy will be a valuable asset to next year's defending champs. Fred Ramirez—11 George Silva . . . As the only one of the starting five to be a four year varsity member, George was the Bear's most valuable player. The 6-4 senior was the only player in PSJA history to start as a freshman. George was also the Bears leading scorer this year with 329 points, an average of 20 56 per game, second highest in the district. The sharp shooter's ability to get inside and score, often with a dunk, earned him many honors. The most impressive of these was being named to the Texas Second Team All-State Basketball squad. Goerge was also named 28-4A All District's Most Valuable Player, as well as being named to the First Team All-District He was also named most valuable player in the Edcouch-Elsa and Brownsville Tournaments as well as All-Tourney in these and the Sonic Tri-City Tournament. 129 Warren Quick . wou utjoo r I5E THAT SCOf CDW80VS Hf tuc :tI The giant of the Bears was Warren, a 6-5 three year varsity member. Excellent defensive playing and rebounding proved to be Warren's greatest contributions to the team Warren scored a total of 181 points, an average of 11.31 for the season. Honors for the center included being named All-District Second Team and All-Tourney at the Edcouch-Elsa Tournament. Warren Quick—34 130 131 Reserves Add Depth JORGE JAIME ... In his first year on varsity. Jorge, was an effective team member. The 5-9 senior s strength lay in his ability to rebound. ROEL SOTO . . . Also a first year varsity member, Roel made many contributions for the District Champs. At 5-9. the senior hit 60 percent of his free throw attempts in district play Jorge Jaime— R Jel Soto-14 9 132 ADAM CABRERA. . . At 5-6. Adam brought valuable junior varsity experience with him to the Bears varsity team The junior added that extra bit of knowledge and training necessary to provide good offensive and defensive play. This experience will be a major factor in the Bears trek to another district title next year. XAVIER GONZALEZ . . . Providing essential backup for the Bears when needed was Xavier. The 5-8 junior furnished the added depth every district champion needs to have a solid team. Xavier, who scored 30 points for the Bears, will be another valuable asset to the 1979-80 defending district champs. CARLOS FLORES ... At 6-0, Carlos also supplied additional backup help for the Bears. The experience gained in his first year of varsity play will be invaluable to the Bears next year. 133 134 J.V.

Mr. Jack McKeever. and Mr. Nievas Garza (who always had a shoulder we could lean on). Mary Ann Molina. Chris-Tee Thrall. Modesto Gonzalez. Carlos Ramos and Jackie De Leon, for giving us some of their time to help us out with pages of our book. We'd also like to thank Mr. C. Coward and Mr. Joe Garza for the use of their pictures, and Hector Trevino for the use of his equipment. Most of all we'd like to thank our sponsor Miss Carolyn Morriss. she had a big part in making our book a success. She was there when we needed a shoulder, she was always understanding, and patient with our “weird ways of life. She will always be special to us. not only as an advisor but as a special friend. We wish you all the luck in your future years as a yearbook sponsor. From us to you. Thanks a bunch! Lots of Love, Bear Memories Staff 262 To The Students Of PSJA High School: First. I would like to thank the journalism staff for giving me a chance to write a letter to all the students at the High School. I still remember the first day in school I looked like an oddball and not too many knew me I felt strange and scared because school here is very different from Thailand: especially because my English was not good at all and l didn't understand the people around me. I dressed in some kind of skirt that you'd never find around here. Some people thought that I was a Mexican-American girl due to my black hair and brown eyes They spoke Spanish to me but they didn't get any answer except I'm sorry, but I don't know any Spanish. The first few weeks in school I was lost and I was not sure if I could get over this situation What should I do7 After I went to my classes in which I studied with Sophomores. Juniors and Seniors, I found out it was not that easy to make good grades. I couldn't understand what the teacher said I had two classes required: American History and English III After I stayed in Pharr quite a time I got used to it a little bit more and I tried to adjust myself to the new environment both at school and at home. You have to be flexible as a foreign exchange student. I got to know more people everyday I know a lot of students playing sports for the school and cheerleaders because my American sister. Janet Brown, was a cheerleader The more I stayed the more I loved school and the Valley. This is the truth—that I can say without doubt. But I never loved school that much when I was in Thailand The school system here is very different since we don't have to wear uniforms to school, and we changed classes every period, but over there we changed the teachers. My life in school is very good and I have a lot of fun with my friends who I can never forget I have warm friendships with the nice people of PSJA I am so proud to be a Bear—a Battling Bear—I miss sports a lot. It was the first time in my life to see an American football game—we play soccer in Thailand—and I love it. A lot of nice times happened during football season I went to cheer the Bears at every game they had and at the Bi-District game in Corpus Christi. Even if they lost they are still number 1 in my memory I have learned the words spirit, pep rally, poster party and I always participated in these activities It was so much fun And I have also participated in the Science Club. AFS. NHS and was an honorary member of the Student Council My year at PSJA has been very eventful and will be one I'll never forget I'd like to thank all of my friends for making me feel at home. for I' 11 never forget you. dkw-thj)JL cfcUjbaAo n a 263 ever.
