Cereis '63 Ked Kud Migk School Ked ftud, Jlimis Zable of Contents Foreword Dedication Administration Faculty and Classes School Employees Organizations Activities Seniors Underclassmen Advertisements Autographs Foreword Today we are moving rapidly toward new horizons. In this day it is impera- tive that we try to be constantly aware of what is happening. Thus, it is our duty as students to eagerly receive that education which is available to us. In this way we will be able to know what we must do in the future. Dedication Because the turbulence in the world today is becoming of greater concern to every individual, we dedicate this Cercis to the brave and self-sacrificing peopltfthroughout the world who are dedicating their Uy.es to promoting peace. The rest of the world owes its highest admiration and grati- tude to these people. It is through their courage and self- sacrifice that we can dream of someday living in a world, united in peace! A. N. Trammell Superintendent Mr. Trammell is the key lead- er in our school. It is his duty to see that we earnestly try to learn, for the knowledge we obtain now will be the basis of our lives in the future. A. E. Phegley Principal Mr. Phegley is important in that he helps us plan our future lives. Besides his counseling, he, as Amer- ican history instructor, gives us background for forming our founda- tions for our lives as citizens of to- morrow .

Most schools throughout the country re- cognize dramatics as an important and integral part of the school program. The young actor learns responsibility as he must not miss a cue, be late or absent from a rehearsal, or forget his lines at a performance. The purpose of producing a play is to give the students, who care to participate, an opportunity to develop skills in speech, enunciation, and projection. They also learn grace and poise, interpretation of moods and ideas, and self confidence. Argan, the invalid; his wife, and his younger daughter, Louison The two lovers, Cleante and Angelique; Thomas Diafoirus, suitor to Angelique chosen by Argan; Toinette, the maid, in background. “Zhe Magic Pipe” The Magic Pipe was a country play which took place on a farm in No- where, U. S, A. Many delightful situations devel- oped when two small-time gangsters and a family of snobbish suburbanites be- came hilariously involved with the farm family that occupied the farm. The play was written by the director, Mr. George Lochner. Left to Right: Ricky Ackermann, Richard Loesche, Wayne Ellner, Pete Liefer, Doris Roth, Elizabeth Schaffner.

In this time of rapid ad- vancement in every field, we, the citizens of tomorrow, must be well-educated.

He has many fond and warm memories that he knows will stay with him years after he marches on the stage to re- ceive that longed-for diploma. Certainly among his fondest memories are his teachers, for how could it all be possible without them? Only now, does he truly realize just what they have done for him through their undying efforts and patience! Also among his memories is that dreaded homework. Oh! How he remem- bers the many nights when he longed to go to the basketball game, the dance, or just out with his friends, but the test, the oral report, or similar fate the coming morning kept him from it. It seemed like unneces- sary torture then, but now he suddenly re- alizes that it was all a part of that painful process called growing up. Athletics! What a wonderful part of one's high school days to remember! The excitement and thrills, the tournaments and trophies, the tensions and anticipations, and yes, even the disappointments, heart- aches, and tears were a tiny part of what goes into high school athletics and makes it what it is. Nothing can be more fun than cheering your own school's baseball or basketball team on to a sweeping victory or a graceful loss. Memories Always a part of the senior’s memories are the organizations to which he belongs. Now he realizes why so many people stress the importance of these organizations in a school. In them, he has developed citizen- ship, leadership, responsibility, and strong character. In many cases, he has had the opportunity to train for the vocation he may later follow in life. Somehow he knows his high school days wouldn’t have been complete without these organizations. Oh, the activities there are to remem- ber! There was band, chorus, and all those wonderful musical shows that were such a thrill to be a part of. There was tumbling, the Pom Pom Girls, and tap dancing. He will never forget the plays, all those lines to remember, and his first real stage fright. And who could ever forget all the sock hops, Harvest and Christmas Dances, and the wonderful spring formals where everyone had such a good time. Yes, a senior knows that all these activities were a major part of his high school days. They represent a part of school that he will dearly miss! And last, but certainly not least, a senior will remember his classmates. As he looks down the hall at all his friends laugh- ing and talking, he suddenly and a little sadly, realizes that they will soon be part- ing. After they graduate, even the best of friends will separate and go their own ways to lead their own adult lives. At last, the day has come to say good-by to the happy and carefree life of high school and face the world with hope, faith and courage in the future. To help him do this, the senior will always carry with him the warmth of the many friendships he has experienced with his classmates all through the years. Mack 1. Karen Hogan 13. Carol Sturm 25.
