e Proudl Dedieate The 1963-64 Cherokee We, the 1964 CHEROKEE staff, were prompted to this ded- ication by the fact that Sam Houston High School started this year as a young, unheralded school and has already gained recog- nition as a fine high school. We feel that this recognition has been achieved through the work and effort of the entire faculty. Each member of the faculty has contributed his own personal touch to the success of our school. Each has strived to work in harmony with his students, and has treated each of them as an individual. For these reasons we dedicate, with love and respect, the 1964 CHEROKEE to the entire faculty of Sam Houston High School. To The Faculty of am Houston Hi h

Memorlam F, 4, ' .,,., t, V i ,V 'graft :V ,fx 1213 , tiillrn- f ,, ,,,, , , , , , When The Cherokee staff chose Texas history as the theme of this annual, little did we know that one of the blackest days in Texas history was yet to take place. On November 22, 1963, just twenty miles from our city, President john Fitzgerald Kennedy was killed by an assassin's bullets. This was a great blow to the people of America and to the world, Our country seemed to be at a complete standstill for days after the tragic event. The student body solemnly listened to the reports on the radio, and when the confirmation of the Presidents death finally came, a hush fell over the school, broken only by the sobs of the girls and the state- ments of disbelief uttered by the boys. We feel a deep sorrow for the loss of this man. He was the symbol of youthfulness and vitality of the people he governed. He seemed close to the people, because he let the people see him as he really was. We saw him as a family man who loved his wife and children. He brought his children and their gay laughter to the White House and allowed America to watch with pride while they grew. He brought the lovely glamour of his wife jackie and gave America a majesty that it had previously lacked. He gave us his time, his ideas, himself. For years to come, we will remember the disbelief we felt when the radio announced with a solemn voice, Our President died shortly after one o'clock today. There will always be in our minds a picture of a smiling young man with so many hopes and high ideals for his country. We could find no better words to ex- press our love than these: In memoriam to john Fitzgerald Ken- nedy, our president.
