He has worked hard in every possible way to better Van-Cove High School, and in return, he has earned the respect and admira- tion of the entire student body. In his own special way, he has shown us the patience and understanding, which we think has helped us become better persons. As a token of our appre- ciation we, the senior class, proudly dedicate the 1969 Hornet to Mr. Arthur Pharr. Superintendent’s Message As another school year comes to a close, I look back with pleasure to the accomplish- ments of the last three years. As you seniors leave this school and continue to make your place in this world may I offer you this thought? Whatever your hands find to do, that do with all the might that is in you. That is the lesson of all experience. Face every task with a determination to conquer its difficulties and never let them conquer you. No task is too small to be done well. Aim high. Success is not in achieving what you aim at, but in aiming at what you ought to achieve and pressing forward. L. O. Hagler Office Secretary 5 Mrs. Ramona Smith Board Of Education Standing L. to R. Buck Cureton, Dolan Daniel, Dale Watkins, Seated L. to R. Bill Walker, Eugene Stevenson, M. A. George, L. O. Hagler, Superintendent The local school board serves the fundamental purpose of carrying out the provisions of the legislative statues and the regulations of the state board of education as these relate to the Van-Cove schools. It is through the exercise of these broad general powers that the school board here at Van-Cove has a great opportunity to serve the children of Cove and Vandervoort.

David Dutton, Subscriptions; Mike Milburn, Photographer Ronnie Cook, Co-Editor; Barbara Page, and Dudley DePriest, Business Managers; Seated Miss Waller, Sponsor; Margie Jewell, Editor As you read this message, you will probably have an opinion of this yearbook. We know that it is not perfect. There will never be a perfect yearbook. Those who realize this will not expect perfection, and will be able to accept it for its real value-a record of this year. Sometimes the staff members and I wondered if we were doing something worthwhile, creating something of value. You and I will know in a few years when memories are fading and some of the people and places have become non-existent. You see, that's the purpose of this book—to provide a record and to help you remember what it was like. I hope you will accept the 1969 Hornet for what it is. I offer the book to you as a record. If you can use it, everything will be worthwhile. Margie Jewell Editor 100
