CUB-IN Which animals do people most eagerly seek out when visiting circuses, parks or zoos? The cubs, of course. Ask these same people why and you will fet many different answers. However most will agree they wish to see the cubs ecause they are spirited. The cub, by nature, is a curious and high spirited creature-one who has a real zest for living. In selecting the theme for this 1966 yearbook the seniors felt that the most dominate factor of their final year was school spirit. Whatever was attempted and whatever was achieved at Polk High School for the year 1965-1966 was done with spirit. Courage, vigor and enthusiasm-in a word-spirit-characterized such diverse activities as football victories, low hurdle races, music festival performances, geometry assignments, banquets, lunch lines and sneak day frolics. The seniors decided that there was no better way to symbolize the Polk spirit than to use our school mascot- the spirited Polk Cub. The theme for this year's annual is the Cub whose spirited activities be they academic or athletic are the very meaning of the past school year. The class of '66 wishes also to pay tribute to the spirit of the Polk community whose sponsorship makes this yearbook possible and whose support of the school activities all year long has made them especially meaningful. A very special thank you is extended to Mr. Dean Leigh for many of the fine photographs with which he supplied us. His was certainly a spirited contribution. Finally we hope you the reader will catch some of the spirit which was the class of '66. If you do this the '66 Cub will have been a success. Sincerely, Co-Editors — Arlyce Lind Allan Neuhaus
