1 3 ROLLA HIGH SCHOOL ROLLA, MISSOURI VOLUME 1 2 w 1960 L J E 4 Qp R FOREWORD The seasons of the year, Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring, come and go, leaving behind the memories of people, organiza- tions, athletics, and activities. We pre- sent the I960 Growler, which is divided into four main sections, each depicting one of the four seasons. This Growler will bring to you all activities in their order of sequence. Under the Summer Division are the pictures of the students and faculty, since they must be present before the activities can take place. Fall is represented by Homecoming, football, and the various clubs and organizations which reassemble at this time. Basket- ball, boxing, the Growler Dance, and Intramurals come under the division of Winter. With Spring comes Junior- Senior Prom, baseball, track, golf, and graduation. It is our desire that the '60 Growler will bring you many happy memories of the past four seasons throughout the many seasons yet to come. TABLE OF CONTENTS WINTER PAGE-112 SPRING PAGE-124 RHS CAMPUS SUMMER vJb 5aV §? • - With summer comes the fun of swimming, water skiing, boating, picnicking, and many other activi- ties. It is a time of vacation and fun. People get together and do things just for the fun of being together. People play the biggest part o f summer. They make summer what it is, and they make the fun that goes with it. How- ever, toward the end of summer comes that reminder of the opening of school.

SPEECH AND DEBATE ON THE UPSWING After several years of inactivity the debate team has been revived and has been advanced to a full-hour class period. This is the first year that the debate team has been part of the curriculum at Rolla High. During the past years debate has been an extracurricular activity. Under the direction of Miss Wilma Leonard, the debate team has attended meetings at West Plains and Columbia and participated in tournaments at Kansas City, Lebanon, Springfield, and Rolla. The speech classes received instructions in the various types of speaking techniques. Sally Rowland, Tony Steinmeyer, and Greg Letterman con- fer on a debate question at the District Speech Contest at Rolla. Miss Leonard, debate coach, and members of the debate team are discussing material which is to be used in a tournament.

BULLDOGS WIN TWO IN CEMO Senior all conference guard Terry Crain leaps high and successfully blocks the lay-up attempt of an unidentifiable Hannibal player. Basketballcrs David Stevens, Charles Britton, Mike McCaw, Terry Crain, and Larry Sidwell gather around senior Mike Shannahan, who is diagramming a play. Lou Short arches a high jump shot which minutes later swished through the net and temporarily put the Bulldogs out in front of the Columbia Kewpies who finally won out over Rolla, 69 - 64. The Bulldogs, due to inexperience and lack of height, didn’t compile an outstanding won-lost record but they did win some ex- citing games and ended the season with 8 wins compared to 19 losses. They won three games in the Rolla tournament and the third place trophy and also won third in the Class L Regional Tournament. In conference games the Bulldogs won only 2 out of 12 but this included a 20-point win over Fulton and a 1-point win over Fulton. The Bulldogs’ arch rival, Fulton, won only one out of the three games played during the season. The Bulldog's high scorer, Donnie Wallace, is shown dribbling below. Donnie is only a junior.

BULLPUPS WIN ELEVEN, LOSE EIGHT In his first year as Bullpup basket- ball coach, Milton Arnold led his squad to a very successful final standing with 11 wins in 19 out- ings. Highlighting the season for the ’Pups were victories over the Columbia B” team, which hadn’t lost a game in two years, and the Junior Jays. Finishing second in the B” standings of the CEMO and competing in the Rolla In- vitational Tournament were two other outstanding features of the past season. Many of last year’s Bullpups are expected to see A” action next season. With the score tied at 30 - 30 and only 49 seconds remaining in the game, Coach Arnold carefully instruas his team before sending them back onto the court with hopes of ccking out another win.

The golf team won the CEMO crown, and the track and baseball teams made a good show- ing. The Junior-Senior Prom was a huge success, and the Seniors had fun at their class party. Then came Baccalaureate and Graduation with all the fun and splendor they brought to the graduates. As spring leaves and turns again to summer, so the students leave, some to re- turn, and some to turn to the world ahead. «ia S' 1 TABLE OF CONTEiNTS Science Fair _______________________________ 127 Track ______________________________________ 128 Golf ________________________________________ 130 Baseball ___________________________________ 132 Junior Play -------------------------------- 135 Jr. • Sr. Prom ______________________________ 136 Graduation _________________________________ 138 Senior Superlatives__________________________140 Many students spend their free time at noon studying in the school library.

ENTERS SCIENCE FAIR The Fourth Annual South Central Missouri Science Fair was held at the Missouri School of Mines Campus, April 14. The fair, spon- sored by the MSM and the Rolla Daily News, became newly affiliated with the National Science Fair. The purpose of the annual sci- ence fair and the Science Club is to stimulate scientific interest. Seven exhibits were entered by students of Rolla High School. Members of the Science Club, standing, Mr. Brent, sponsor; Michael Lund, George Brewer, Carl Lund, Charles Bolon, Bill Anderson, Greg Letterman, John Oeffner, Earl Battccn, Bill Webb, Jim Heskett, John Parker, Vernon Klesath, and Mr. Smith, sponsor. Members seated; Bob Crangle, Bill McCracken, Jim Erkiletian, Jack Laird, and Jeff Baker. Jim Erkiletian and John Parker are seen setting up an exhibit at Jackling Gym during the science fair. Tony Steinmeyer receives the Bausch and Lomb Science Award from Mr. Smith and Mr. Miller. Tony was presented this award for his outstanding work in science and in mathematics. Science Club members are at work with micro- scopes during a Science Club meeting. The Bulldog track squad this year was plagued by lack of experience and injuries to some of the key men on the team. Coach O’Neal worked hard and long with his boys and never dropped out of any of their numerous meets because he knew they wouldn’t have a chance. These boys gained experience and should come on strong with a well-balanced team next year. Absence of key-men such as miler Lou Short, high jumper Mike McCaw, and hurdler Charlie Britton added to O’Neal’s troubles. Pictured above, is Coach Forrest O’Neal, who worked diligently this past season with his young and in- experienced track squad. O’NEAL COACHES YOUNG LINDERMEN Pictured below, is the I960 RHS track team, which in- cludes, bottom row, left to right: David Brown, Gary Moore, Farrell Mansfield, Don Kelly, Jim Dinges, Kenny Dye, Mike McNelley, Butch Light, Loren Morford, Gene Gideon, Mike Slider, Butch Hutchens, Bill Kitchens, and Ronnie Trotter. Second row: Gene Taylor, Randy Lee, Kenny Lenox, Tom Hayes, Joe Porter, Jim Mouser, David Stevens, Charlie Britton, Dale Copeland, Paul Cochran, Eddie Roemer, and Paul Hayes. Top row: Coach Forrest O’Neal, Jim Frank, Bill Hawthorne, Bill Anderson, Lester Moore, Karl Gevecker, Bob Carnahan, John Campbell, Carl Spencer, Lou Short, Gerry Gourley, Mike McCaw, Joe Hook, and Jerry Bartle. Coach O’Neal put forth a new idea to close the track season this year, giving added recog- nition to four thinclads. By a vote of the team Joe Hook was elected captain; Carl Spencer, the most valuable player; Randy Lee, the most improved player; and Tom Hayes, player with the most team spirit. All of these boys should be congratulated for these fine honors. Senior pole vaulter Jim Mouser is shown near the height of his jump during the Lebanon track meet. Senior Joe Hook lets go with a strong heave of the shotput at the Lebanon track meet held at the MSM track in Rolla. Below, senior sprinter John Campbell is shown finishing a tenth of a second behind the winning Lebanon thinclad. Almost the entire track squad received letters at the close of the season. Very few of the boys were outstanding in any particular field but most of them gave it everything they had and stuck with it throughout the frustrating season. For this reason a track letter is a symbol of hard work and team spirit. Senior speedster Charlie Britton is shown finishing far ahead of the field in the 120 low hurdles. The Bulldog 880 relay team composed of four seniors, David Stevens, Jim Mouser, John Campbell, and Charlie Briton, is pictured below. GOLFERS AGAIN WIN CEMO CROWN Pictured belou is the I960 RHS golf team. Prom left to right, the linksmen include Renai Sidie (who did not compete), Tom Sowers, Charles Tandy (who did not compete), Larry Parks, Bill McCracken, Steve Sowers, and Kenny Williamson. For the second consecutive year the RHS golf team won the CEMO conference championship by three strokes over Columbia. The four linksmen also placed third in the SMS Relays and third in the state district playoffs in Springfield. Thus the Bulldogs competed in the state meet along with 15 of the state’s best teams. Winning mostly when it counted the Bulldogs lost twice to the Jefferson City Jays while tying them once and beating them once in dual meets. In other dual meets the henchmen of coach J. Mack Gladden clobbered the weak Sedalia quartet twice. This year’s team consisted of Steve Sowers, Bill McCracken, Ken Williamson, Tom Sowers, and Larry Parks in that order. First man and a senior member of the golf team, Steve Sowers, putts his ball toward the hole. Senior Kennie Williamson follows through with a five iron. Junior member of the golf team ad- dresses the ball with his driver. Sophomore and fourth member of the golf team, Tom Sowers follows through with his driver. Freshman Larry Parks was the fifth member of the golf squad this year. Larry saw action in two matches. 131 The Bulldog baseball team didn’t fare so well last spring either. Coach Milton Arnold worked diligently with his inexperienced squad, which was blessed with only four returning lettermen and two other returning players from last year's squad. As in track, this year’s experience should build next year’s team into a strong club which should win its share of games. Head coach Milton Arnold checks the scorebook with manager Bill Heavin as Phil Stevens looks on at left.

In the playoff game for the championship, David Wolford grabs a rebound while teammate, Kenny Williamson, waits for a pass and a possible basket. Their team went on to win this game and earn the boys' intramurals championship. Lynn Baylor and Tanya Suarez play Jack and Mary. Jack is the sophisticated college sophomore and Mary is a 17- year-old senior. The entire cast includes Lucia Hamilton, Lynn Baylor, Jeff Baker, Terry King, Tanya Suarez, Anne Bennett, Kenny Lenox, Nancy Goin, Bill Webb, John Oeffner, Jim Heskett, Lynette Bradford, Martha Tucker, and Carl Stekelcnburg.

Judy Whites and Mike Fisher seem to be cheating on their reputation as being the most dependable. 142 Selected as having done the most for RHS, David Long and Karen Lindsay display a bit of their good work.” ADVERTISEMENTS Advertising plays an important part in making a yearbook possible.
