THE I960 EXCALIBUR Published by The Senior Class Van Wert High School Van Wert, Ohio Volume XLII

' ' Education is the knowledge of how to use the whole of oneself. A man is educated who knows how to make a tool of every fac- ulty — how to open it, how to kcej) it sharp, and how to apply it to all practical purposes. This quotation by H. W. Beecher defines the educated person. Van Wert High School strives to maintain conditions ena- bling students to receive an education suited to their individual needs. In the midst of this academic learning, we find that other experiences here at school will help us in later life. The con- fusion an d laughter of a pep assembly and the solemnness of a religious program give us the practical knowledge of sportsman- ship and sereness. Tears after our first football defeat, the hysterical laughter during Harvey, and the excited feeling as graduation neared recall only a few nostalgic moments. This EXCALIBUR tells the story of our school year during 1959-60 at Van Wert High.
