THE CLASS OF 1963 One could never hope To enumeraTe all ThaT has occurred during The four years of our high school educaTion. The sTudenT body increased from 450 sTu- denTs in 1959 To almosT 600 in 1963. During This Time we were happy To pro- duce The 1960 STaTe Championship Bas- kefball Team ancl The 1961 myThical Class A STaTe FooTball Champions. We wifnesseol The building and dedica- Tion of a combinaTion fooTball and Track field and sTadium, The consTrucTion of four Tennis courTs and insTallaTion of The backsfop for The baseball field. The addiTion of such courses as cal- culus, creafive wriTing, music-arT apprec- iaTion and French has enriched The cur- riculum of elecTives, and our receiving and sending of exchange sTudenTs from Iceland and To Germany, respecTively, have been noTeworThy in our progress. GreaT advances have Taken place in The world of science since The firsT saTel- liTe was puT inTo space in 1958, and in l 1962 boTh The UniTed STaTes and Russia puT men inTo orbiT. The cold war and The sfruggles for racial equaliTies and self-governmenf are sTill being waged and as we esfablish ourselves as ciT- izens, may involve many of our class- maTes in incidenTs similar To Berlin, Que- moy, Cuba, lndia and Viet-Nam. We enTered high school in 1959 and Bill Pemerl was elecfed presidenT. Rich- ard Baginski was The Sophomore presi- denT. Bill Pemerl was chosen as presi- denT again in The Junior year and we sponsored The formal 42nd and Broad- way . Cour du Lion was The Theme DAVID THUMMEL President ROBERT SCOTT SANDRA HAMPSON Vice-President SecreTary l B MARY ANN SPEARS RONALD HANSEN Treasurer Sergeant-at-Arms of The formal we gave The fall of our Senior year. The Senior play financed The annual spring picnic. We ended wiTh a milesTone in our lives-GraduaTion and iTs responsibiliTies. David Thummel was presidenT during This evenTful year. WhaT has our high school educaTion done for us? These few years have been hard, even frusTraTing Times. They have given us our firsT maTuriTy. We now realize ThaT This is our counTry-our world. We hope we shall live well in iT. 34
