Mr. « � • « « a« «— ',P yo rs - and guidance that y 4 Swpmttte idM'b Congratulations graduates of 1963. As you embark upon the world of today, one of our most prominent difficulties is Universal peace. In the final analysis, removal of the military obstacles to world peace--like all other obstacles--depends upon the possession and growth of ideals in the hearts of men. The spiritual and intellectual field is the real battleground upon which the future of the world will be decided. It is evident, therefore, that the major task for each of us today is to utilize every talent we possess with the utmost vigor, vision, and creative imagination to help make American ideals and principles felt throughout the earth. There is nothing more important in this endeavor than developing in our “younger generation” a solemn sense of obligations of citizenship and providing them with the spiritual and intellectual resources necessary to meet them. 6 GREETINGS! World Peace or World Chaos! To which of these conditions will you be found contributing after you leave the portals of the Public School to take a place in the ‘Space-Age’ world? You are entering an era in which opportunities for careers are more abundant than ever before; every field of endeavor is in short supply of able, trained people. Somewhere among the youth of today are minds capable of discovering ways to world peace, ways to new appreciation of beauty in art, literature, or music, ways to deeper and more fulfilling lives, just as there have been minds capable of splitting the atom. Through concerted effort on the part of the home, the church and the school, moral integrity and mental development have been made possible for you. It is our fervent hope that we have succeeded in breaking through the barriers that would have kept you from realizing your creative potential.

First to arrive on the scene isDr. Herbert Frances Michael Brown, a noted veterinarian, accompanied by his pet pack-rat, Peanut . The biologist, Miss Sharon Williams advances cautiously toward Peanut , fascinated by this unusual species. Coming through the narrow doorway, dressed as usual in their bib-overalls, are our two farmers, Rodger Baylor and Forrest Hill, cussing and discussing the latest development in a self-propelled manure spreader complete with white side-walls and an air-filtered cab. Beating his way through a pack of 25 or 30 kids, mostly HIS, comes Don Toohill. Don has become well-known as a model for the sculpturers of the Great Thinker. Jo Ann Cusey Slewfoot , followed by her tribe of Indians dressed in bear-skins, entertain the audience with their rhythm band. The youngest Slewfoot throws a tomahawk out of the building which smashes into the vehicle of an incoming guest. However, we need not worry about damages since it is Don Cain in his four-speed, dual-quad, posi-traction JEEP. Our Don is now president of his own company which designs ladies dresses. He has decided to further his high school mathematical interest by frequently studying curves and angles. In 1 Walks Elizabeth Thorp, alias Psycho-Annie . She once attempted the profession of psychiatry which later proved to be her downfall. Now she practices her skills on her husband and the little reasons for her downfall. At present, the number is four. In case of an emergency, we could call Sue Welch, R.N. (that's registered nurse not regular nut''.) It seems as though Sue has not been able to fulfill her duties outside the Male Ward and has now become | its permanent supervisor at the Blaire General Hospital. Our secretaries, Barbara Underwood and Anna Toohill. we see have succeeded in hooking their executive bosses by overtime work. During our intermission we visit with Donna Kuehling, a professor of trigonometry at Southern Illinois University. Since she was the only girl in her high school trig class, she now teaches all-boy classes. At the next table we find Lanny Rolofson.the accountant j for Black Vest Manufacturing Company. Lanny tells us of his troubles: wine, women and the multiplication tables. As the orchestra begins playing for the last half of our dance we see Joe Maxwell dancing with his prize holstein, his wife Priscilla Holstein Maxwell. Joe has taken over the Ag. classes at Wapella High. Sitting over on the west side of the gym are our classmates, Sandra Ferguson and Sharon Armstrong. Sandy is impatiently waiting on her husband whom she expects is hanky-pankying in the halls. On the contrary, Sherry is having a good time because her husband is gone with him. Hark!!! What is this now coming through the door! It looks like a red-headed Santa Claus, but with a little investigation by parting a few whiskers, we find it is our beloved Rodney Fryman, president of the Ladies' Slick Razor Company, who refuses to degrade himself by using his product. Bringing up the end again, as in our Beverly Hillbillies is Alice Toohill, a famous cartoonist.

Danvers, with one loop tilt still on tap, has a 2-7 league record.

Student library assistants are important to high school libraries. Many library services for their fellow students are performed by them during the teaching periods of the teacher-librarian. Requirements for student librarians are the following: juniors or seniors in high school, high scholastic standing, high citizenship rating, attitude of helpfulness, legible handwriting, neatness of person and dress, and willingness to do assigned tasks. Each junior or senior librarian who meets the above requirements and performs the services satisfactorily receives a library awards pin. Our student librarians are to be commended for the splendid work they do. The use of Hall Monitory originated in the 1955-56 school year. Students in the upper quarter of their class, scholastically, are selected by the High School Administration to occupy a station in the front hall; a different student for each class period. These Monitors greet visitors, run errands for the office personnel, collect attendance reports, and use their extra time for lesson preparations. It is important because of the fact that one gets his first impression of the school system from these, the Student-Public-Relations personnel. 46 BACK ROW: Norma Bray, Barbara Harrold, Martha Ellis, Linda Powers, Susan Hale.
