1965 Mingo Chito Yazoo City High School Yazoo City, Mississippi Co-Editors Jane Beale Haley Barbour Sponsor Mrs. H. E. Watson Volume 19 Published by The Yearbook Staff What part of the motor is that, Coach?” impatiently asks a Driver's Ed student. In addition to his other numerous activities, Coach Jenkins teaches the fundamentals of safety to many sophomores. Dedication COACH EULAS RED” JENKINS Because of the innumerable services he has ren- dered to our town, our school, and ourselves; be- cause of the unrestrained zeal with which he has helped both individuals and groups; because of the fashion by which he has come to garner the respect and appreciation both of those who have been fortunate enough to work with him and of those who have not been so lucky; and because of the love and dedication he has demonstrated for YHS and its interests, we, the staff of the 1965 yearbook, on behalf of everyone concerned with Yazoo High School, dedicate our 19th edition of Mingo Chito to Coach Eulas Stamps Red” Jenkins. A common sight at the football field is Coach Jenkins on the telephone. As he listens to his assistants in the press box, he notes necessary corrections to be made in the de- fense. 2 Yazoo City High School Contents Its People Administration.............12 Faculty....................16 Classes....................28 Its Life Clubs......................64 Music......................82 Features.................. 92 Its Spirit Sports....................110 Student Life..............136 Advertisers, Index........156 Foreword A year has passed before us, a year that greatly influenced the people, the life, and the spirit of YHS. Its people epitomized the life of typical free American students. Its life reflected the goal of higher education which was shared by all students. Its tra- ditional spirit captured everyone during a year filled with sports, studies, and memorable activities. Now', after tumultuous joys and crushing heartaches have passed and lost their significance, a melancholy ardor has taken an eternal hold on the heart of each Yazooan. So that you will remember one of the most valuable years of your life, we, the 1965 MINGO CHITO staff invite you to go with us through Yazoo High to see its people, its life, and its spirit. 3 BANK OF Speech teacher, Jim Caldwell, displays his muscular frame while lecturing one of his classes. Six hundred pushing students often make jaunts to class something less than comfort- able. “You know, having 4th period library is worth it. Just think of those poor kids standing out there in line ” 4 Mr. Massey assumes a regal perch in hot pursuit of a queen bee. If these assembly programs don't last longer. I'll have to do my algebra.” Did you say . . no, you couldn't have said that. Hurry, we have five minutes to get ready for another performance! The Mixed Chorus programs were truly high points on the assembly schedule. 5 S7 s JSife We understood people studied in the library, but this is the first time we've ever seen it done. As spring sprung and sap began to rise, young lovers like Sherry Burrell and Aubert King were to be seen everywhere. Mr. Beers prepares the concert barvd for the oncoming performance at the state festival. 6 Watch out, Richard! They're closing in fast!” There is nothing like a homeroom party to let people know who is a H pig- 7W ffAOf FWfP mi o Joe’s, the Do-nut shop, and the Tastee-Freeze, which is shown here, are favorite haunts for those who protested against the lunch- room’s balanced menus. Only at day's end do students leisurely stroll down the hall without the furious rush experienced between classes. 7 S7 s Spirit Big Kid Simmons puts the stretch on, as other Indians anxiously await the resulting action. Coach Hassin and her femme fatales gives the stu- dent body a few chuckles before the Central game. Go, Indians, go! cries Suzy Nicholas, as she and Beth Bagwell raise school spirit previous to the Greenwood slaughter. 8 IS yjfs 9 Icfministration 7acu i y Gfa asses 10 Good Administrators MR. FRED W. YOUNG Superintendent of Yazoo City Public School System For his ceaseless efforts to better the standards of the Yazoo City Public Schools, YHS is indebted to Mr. Fred W. Young. His leadership in the city and state has made him respected and loved by students and residents of Yazoo City. Having com- pleted his eighteenth year of service as superinten- dent, Mr. Young has stood as a bulwark of integrity and Christian ideals. 12 Mrs. Doris Caperton, Mrs. W. T.

School Board The five local businessmen who composed the school board have completed another year of service with the interests of Yazoo City’s children in mind. The 1964-1965 school year was an example of the cooperation and effort each man made to guide the school system. The president of the board, Mr. John Graeber and the other members welcomed the contributions of a new member, Dr. D. B. Roark. President of Board, MR. JOHN GRAEBER, Graeber Brothers Co. MR.

KELLY Assistant Superintendent and Principal Words cannot express the sincere admiration and respect that all YHS students hold for their principal, Mr. H. C. Kelly. His affable manner, combined with dignity and resolution, have formed not only a well rounded individual, but a responsible school ad- ministrator. MRS. CAROLYN JOHNSON Secretary to the Principal 14 MR. SABIN RUSH Assistant Principal Counselor Coach MISS HATTIE RICHARDSON Supervisor of Instruction Undoubtedly one of the busiest members of the school faculty, Coach Sabin Rush serves as assistant principal and counselor to students, yet still finds time to coach the girls’ basketball team. Every day students may be seen leaving Coach Rush’s office after consulting him on such matters as schedules or which college they should attend. Warmly received in every classroom, Mrs. Hattie Richardson, the supervisor of instruc- tion in all Yazoo City schools, renders an invaluable service by helping unexperienced teachers to perfect a teaching technique and to give additional aids to skilled teachers. YHS is indebted to Mrs. Richardson for her dedicated and beneficial services. 15 Languages, to Link Cultures DR. GUSTAVO GARCIA, Spanish; Law degree, Havana University. MRS. ELEANOR LESTER, Latin, Spanish; B.A., Millsaps College. Now Sonny, you may be listening but, you’re not repeating. Freshmen who have taken Spanish at the Junior High find the audio-linguo lab a long needed aid to improve their Spanish accents. What would the world be like if no one had ever tried to decipher any language hut his own? Certainly, the world would not be as it is today. There would be no diplomatic relations; there might not even be many of the new nations that we have today. Progress would be at a standstill, and each country with its own language and customs, would live only in its own realm. Religions would be varied in each country and we in America would probably be pagans. Languages are the keys to progress and our modern world. For this reason, students at YHS are encouraged to study either Latin, the foundation of the Romance languages, or Span- ish, the language spoken by our southern neigh- bors. Mrs. Lester, please tell us what these Latin Christmas cards say,” plea Latin II students Carolyn Quin and Debbie Nelson. The Latin classroom has colorful mementos of the foreign countries on the bulletin board and walls. Okay, John, it's a date! Let's hope that Linda Carson didn't get her switches crossed while she played with the controls on Dr. Garcia's desk. 16 English, Our Foundation MR. JIMMY D. CALDWELL, Speech and English; Univ. of Miss., B.A. MISS MARTY CARROLL, English; Delta State, B.S.E. MR. LINFIELD MILLER, English; B.A., M.C., M.A., Millsaps. MRS. J. W. PARKER, English; M.A., Miss. College. MISS ANN ROGERS, English: Univ. of Miss., B.A. Mr. Miller asked for book covers and, boy, did he get them! Cheryl Johnston, the Mingo Chi to artist, views other YHS talent with an admiring glance. Through excellence in speaking and writing, one can climb the ladder of success. The English department at YHS, realizing this fact, endeavors to imprint on each mind the basic structure of the English grammar. Students are also led into the magical, poetic and historical worlds of literature in the English language. There goes Greg Horne with the Globe Theater, which is used for the English IV Shakespearean round table. And now, you tell me the three types of speech, Mr. Caldwell,” teases Mary Lee Anderson. The new speech instructor not only informs his students of the correct way to speak, but entertains them with his wit. 17 Science, The Door to the Future MRS. NETTIE FERRIS, Science; B.S., Bel haven College. MR. GEORGE RICHARDSON, Chemistry, Physics; Masters, Graduate Work, Univ. of Miss., Univ. of Utah. MRS NAOMI ROBERDS, Biology; B.S., MSCW. To keep up with the great advancements being made in the field of science, YHS offers general and senior science along with more advanced courses in biology, chemistry, and physics. Enriched science programs and clubs are also a part of the science department. The Jets Club is sponsored by Mr. George Richardson. The Jets strive for the advance- ment, development, and education of tomorrow’s scientists. Science programs included speakers from various colleges and agencies in Mississippi and the science fair. Many enthusiastic science and mathe- matics students participated in the annual fair. This activity gave the student a chance to excel in sci- ence outside the classroom. YHS boasts two up-to-date laboratories and some of the best research equipment available. Lonnie, now you sift the flour while I pour in the cyanide. This'll make a nice little cake for the teachers, jokes Byron Seward. This is a Luna moth, Owen.

LESLIE C. CLARK, Mathematics and Coach; B.S., Miss. Southern. Jim, don't you think you’re a little too old to be playing with blocks? Oh, it’s a project in geometry.” He'll never balance that sphere on the cone! MRS. H E. WATSON. Mathematics. B.S., Millsaps College. Modern Algebra, Plane Geometry, and Business mathe- matics are the subjects YHS students dread until they enroll in the class and see the unlimited mysteries solved by num- bers. One cannot imagine the thrill enjoyed by solving a difficult mathematic problem until he, himself, has enter- tained the experience. Besides being a helper in everyday problems, it is the language of science and queen of the future. This year YHS. began to introduce modern mathe- matics and in future years, an advanced course in mathematics will be offered. Now multiply by x + 3, add the numerators and subtract the amount of change you have in your pocket. Joey Regan is really going to town with his Algebra II problem. I'm learning fast, arent I, Mrs. Watson?” asks freshman Norman Mott. Making graphs is a new adventure for 9th grade Algebra stu- dents who never knew one could find unknowns by the intersection of two straight lines. 19 Social Studies, The History of Mankind MISS MARGARET HESTER. American History, Social Science, Counselor, and Coach; B.A., MSCW. MR. JERRY JOHNSON, Social Studies, Coach; B.S.E., Delta State. MR. DEWITT MASSEY. World History; M.A., Miss. College. MRS. C. D. WILLIAMS, History; B.A., Blue Moun- tain College, Graduate Study, Univ. of Alabama. At YHS the social studies department opens six fields of history and economics to its students. Mis- sissippi History and American History credits are imperative for a high school diploma. This past year a six weeks' course on the evils of communism, which should better prepare students to recognize the communist propaganda that they will face in the future, was added to the History field. What's this world coming to? Larry Bloom seems to be Are Miss Hester and Betty Jo discussing American pained over something his world history class is reading History, or could it be basketball ? about in their Senior Scholastic. 20 Music, That Calms the Mind MR. S. C. BEERS, Band Director Jr. and Sr. High; Hendrix College, Ark. MISS BERNICE GAY, Public School Music and Choral Director; B.M., M.M., Med., Belhaven, Peabody, LSU. MR. DONALD VAUGHAN, Assistant Band Director; U.M., M. of Music, Memphis State. Come now, Mr. Beers, you don't expect me to play that! teases head majorette Kathy Crowder. At one time or another every veteran student at YHS experienced delight when he passed by the band room during a lively practice session. The school band under the direction of Beers and Vaughan was a section of school activities that made every student feel proud. Another division of the music program was the Mixed Chorus, various ensembles, and the music classes which were under the instruction of Miss Bernice Gay. The chief goal of the music program was to increase interest in music as well as to teach to as many students as possible the funda- mentals of this classic art. Both the band and the Mixed Chorus joined other schools in festivals and contests of friendly competition. Students in these organizations also benefit by receiving service points for their musical participation. Surprise! James Dawes and assistant band instructor, Mr. Vaughan, are showing off one of the new fiber glass bass horns the band bought this From Shore to Shore in this great land we live in . . Three of Miss Gay’s music students practice for one of the many assembly programs given by the first year choral group. 21 Home Economy for Young Ladies MRS. RALPH C. HUNT, Homemaking; MSCW, B.A. What's that I smell burning? Not my skirt, I hope! wonders Mary Anderson in a typical homemaking class. Nelda, I never thought that sewing would be so easy. I don’t even have to ask Mrs. Hunt for help every five minutes, remarked Alice Faye Dew. In the fast advancing world of today, emphasis is being placed on the women in the business world. The homemaking department endeavors to place this emphasis on the woman’s place in the home. In grades 9 12 a student taking homemaking learns how to prepare a well-balanced, tempting meal and also the arts of per- sonality developement, good grooming, and serving. A student studies family relations and receives careful in- struction in home furnishings and child care. The home- making students are the builders of the homes for America’s future. Homes where truth, love, security, and faith will be realities. Threading a machine gets easier every time Singer puts Clothes come cleaner with Tide,” agree Anne Keene and Glenda out a new model.

OOQOOOQOOOO 00000000060 © oooooooee© © Now is the time for all good men to . . . reach 40 words a minute or fail the course. Have no fear, we know these boys will make it. Hands on your keys, eyes on your books, . . . Begin, instructs Miss Hendrix, one of the typing teachers at YHS. This is just one of the familiar directions repeated again and again by the proficient teachers of the Com- mercial Department. The five minute timings and tabula- tion problems in the typewriting classes taught by Miss Louise Hendrix and Mrs. Nelson Isreal brought back memories of adding, subtracting, and dividing, only to have the whole thing wrong. Transcriptions in shorthand and practice sets in bookkeeping sometimes discouraged the want-to-be-perfect students into incessant indolence. The Commercial Department aids the Yazoo City busi- ness community in many ways, one of which is by train- ing efficient office personnel and by offering night classes for adults and students.

EDMONDS. Physical Education and Coach; B.S., Masters, Univ. of Miss. MR. E. S. JENKINS. Athletic Director, Coach, and Driver Training; M.A. in Phy. Ed., Univ. of Miss. Under the supervision of Coach El Edmonds, the stu- dents of YHS improved in body and mind as they were paced through vigorous calisthenics and sessions on the fundamentals of various sports. The goal of the physical education course is to teach the way of a good sportsman as well as to furnish students with a healthful and in- formative activity. Students eagerly participated in sports such as dodge-ball, basketball, and football. Students at YHS take great interest in the Driver's Education Program which is under the direction of Coach Red” Jenkins. During the first months of the course the students study the basic mechanics of a car and numerous safety precautions. To complete his training, each driver demonstrated his skill in the specially equipped drivers' education car. There goes Norma Gill, she is such a conscientious driver! After a few of the gruesome films showing color scenes of fatal accidents on the highway, all YHS students began to drive more carefully. Wow, yells Weezie Phillips, if I were as good in Algebra as I am playing basketball, I'd be a genius. During the year students learn such valuable things as how to play baseball, basketball, and volleyball. No P.E. session goes by without an exhilarating drill in exercise. Students also spend one term on a first aid course. 24 Vocational Training for Future Endeavors MR. A. L. BOND. Diversified Occupations, Distributive Education; M.Ed., Miss. State. MR. JAMES H. BURCHFIELD, Industrial Arts and Mechanical Drawing; B.S., Miss. State. To develop future leaders for marketing and dis- tribution in the community, YHS offers to juniors and seniors the enrollment in Distributive Education. There are two types of programs offered in D.E.: cooperative and preparatory. In the cooperative pro- gram, students in the morning take the academic subjects required for graduation and at least one period in Distributive Education; and in the after- noon they experience on-the-job training. The pre- paratory training consists of marketing and related subjects which permit the student to remain in school all day and continue with academic subjects. The student receives work experience on weekends and holidays. Mechanical arts, the language of industry, is a rewarding course to all students, but especially those interested in engineering. With such precision in- struments as the triangle and T-square, the students draw their ideas to scale. Ronnie Allen is one of the many YHS students who benefit from the Diversified Occupations course. While participating in the D.E. program, Jenell Be careful, Ted, this machine can easily chop off those little fingers, Kight works diligently as she keeps books for warns Mr. Burchfield. The woodworking students turn out top grade Hillary White's Builders Supply. finished products with skill and ease. 25 Library, Center of Cultural Activities MRS. MARY EMMA SMITH, Librarian; B.A., MSCW, M S. La. State Univ. Li’I Abner gets himself into the biggest messes, grins Tommy Phillips, who is involved daily in the comic strip. In ad- dition to the daily newspapers from Jackson and Memphis, the library pro- vides the reader with the Yazoo City Herald, and the school paper. Copies of popular and informing magazines are also offered for the interested student. Hum, such a quiet, studious atmosphere, so conducive to study. Something must be up though. Do I detect a slight ex- pression of mischief on Charles' face?” Equipped with the best reference books, card catalogue, and reading materials, the library' at YHS offered an atmosphere conducive to study. Student librarians were busy helping other students find a reference book or novel, when Mrs. Smith wasn’t available. They also helped by checking out and putting up books. Sometimes the library was the place for a social gather- ing rather than a quiet meditative place of study and learning. Seniors were the first to claim the conference rooms and the last to leave it. Dearest memories of YHS will be those of the library. Let's get this one,” yells Fran Cooper as she models one of the many robes which Seniors may choose for gradua- tion. The library is one of the large rooms which Seniors use for their class meetings. 26 Cafeteria, to Feed Hungry Students MRS. H. G. HAIRS- TON. Yazoo Public School Dietician. MRS. ROSA HARRI- SON, Manager of Cafeteria. MRS. L. O. HILL MRS. J. T. KETCHUM MR. O. C. SHANNON Maintenance Supervisor No, No! Bob, only two rolls per person. Just because you're a growing boy doesn't give you special privileges. I know Mrs. Hairston, but they're so good. The staff in the YHS cafeteria has prided themselves in their excellent cooking, and the students at YHS have realized how lucky they are. The fact that excellent food was prepared for the students in the cafeteria at YHS was proved by the long lunch lines every day at noon! After sniffing noses caught the pleasing odor of homemade biscuits, students raced to the lunch line. Not only was the food appetizing, but it was a nutritious, balanced diet. Mr. O. A. Shannon, Maintenance Supervisor, kept YHS in good condition, despite the punishment her 660 occupants gave her. Whenever a pipe burst, a door hung, a light went out, or a locker got stuck, Mr. Shannon was there with his tool-box to repair the damages. Wonder what my fortune cooky says,” muses Perry Hisaw. These boys consume food like vacuum cleaners. Who wouldn't after a hard morning sitting in a school desk using your brain? After all, that’s hard work for most stu- dents. 27 Freshman Class Liz Allen Robert Allen Ava Anderson Bonnie Anderson Greg Babb Luther Baldridge Danny Berry Ernestine Boutwell Patty Boutwell Bill Brigham Linda Brignac Mary Broadaway Ronnie Brown Chris Butler Sherry Burrell Nell R. Byrd Ricky Carpenter Judy Cates Gcorganna Clark Marie Cobb Georganna Clark, Danny Hood, Bo Kelly A friendly attitude and willingness to work won Danny Hood the presidency of his class. Danny played Junior High football and was a member of the Hi-Y Club. Although he is quiet and easygoing, Danny merited membership in the S-Club. The duties of vice-president were efficiently handled by Bolling Kelly, who is better known as Bo.” In Junior High he received the American Legion Award. This year Bo played on the Junior High football team and also served as vice-president of his home- room. Serving as secretary-treasurer of her class, Georg- anna Clark proved her dependability. Georganna’s outgoing personality and friendly smile won her a place in the hearts of all her classmates. Cecil Adcock Gerald Guy Collins Travis W.

His athletic achievement included excellence in football, basketball and track. He was a member in both the Freshman-Sophomore Hi-Y Club and the Y-Club. Jim served ably in student activities as vice-president of his homeroom. Charlie Wright, known for his warm smile and winning personality, was chosen to lead the Sopho- mores as their vice-president. Charlie has been ex- ceptionally active in all phases of school life. He was a Hi-Y Club member and on the football team. Bonnie Johnston, a lively and vivacious person, is a very qualified officeholder and has demonstrated this by being elected secretary of the Sophomore class. The list of Bonnie’s activities is long. She was a Y-Teen member, a guard on the basketball team, an alternate cheerleader and secretary of her home- room. Bonnie also represented her homeroom in the Yazoo County Fair Beauty Contest. 0 Of) Jim Broocks David Brooks Marie Brister Shirley Broadaway Paul Brown Tommy Browning Mildred Calhoun Sherry Carpenter Rathal Carson Vicki Carter 34 Kirk Carver Cam Chapman Donnie Chevalier Annie Laura Childress Sharon Clark Carol Coe Jo Ann Coleman Sharon Coleman Chrystie Cook Sheila Cotten Mariane Cox Jerry Davis Albert DeHombre Susan DeLancey Rebecca DeLoach Robert Dew Jimmy Dixon Truett Duncan Pam Edgar Johnny Ervin Jeanie Everett William Finley N arion Fitzhugh Johnny Freeman Marsha Gelman Mysteries of biology come to life.

Displaying good sportsmanship in football and basketball, Larry was a key member of each team. An active member of both the S-Club and Hi-Y Club, Ding-Dong” did not let his athletic endeavors hinder his study or leadership. In his sophomore and junior years versatile David Roberts was the class’ choice for the office of vice- president. He further proved his leadership ability by serving as president of the Junior-Senior Hi-Y Club. David’s athletic ability was demonstrated on both the football and basketball teams. A member of the S-Club for two years, David was elected a Student Council representative his junior year and was one of its most active participants in its projects. Sincere, friendly, and capable—these words de- scribe Barbara Cissy” Knott, secretary-treasurer of the Junior Class. Not only was Barbara an S-Club member throughout high school, but she also main- tained an A” average. Joining the yearbook staff her sophomore year, she proved a valuable addition to this group. Barbara was a five-year member of the band and a majorette for two years.

He has partici- pated in football, track, and basketball while at the same time maintaining membership in the S-Club. During his junior year Murphy” was elected to the National Honor Society and to Boys’ State. Vice President Ben Darby, having main- tained an S-Club average and served as a homeroom officer, would be well qualified to fill in if needed. Ben’s own experience in playing varsity basketball and lettering in golf, has aided him in giving to the Yazooan vivid accounts as Sports Editor. In her modest way Caroline Barbour has not sought praise or honor, but it has been given to her. In her junior year she received the highest honors at YHS by being elected a representative to Girls' State and a mem- ber of the National Honor Society. This year Caroline is serving as State TAP Chair- man and editor of the Yazooan. CHARLES WESLEY ALLEN, JR.

Pep Club 56 “Nothing can be quite as wonderful as that Seventeenth Summer” But Larry, stage hands don't play with dolls. The Senior Class production, Seventeenth Sum- mer,” was one of the most successful plays ever given at YHS. The director, Mr. Jimmy Caldwell, chose the cast from over the 50 seniors who tried out. The chosen thirteen, along with the assistant director Frances Cooper and stage manager Nor- man Norquist, worked many long nights to turn out a play that will not be soon forgotten by any of the over 1,500 people who attended.

Was it a rough trip, Penny, or was it a rough trip? On Friday, April 30, at 5:30 A.M. the seniors of YHS left on a never to be forgotten trip. Friday afternoon and Saturday morning provided the more educational features of the trip, the guided tours. Saturday afternoon brought fun at the beach. While Saturday night was for some a first experience, for everyone the night and the entire trip left many happy memories.

On behalf of the Junior class, I gratefully accept this memorial, says Larry Bell, President of the Junior class. I think the school will always remember this 1965 graduating class when they use the duplicating machine. Our only 1965 Merit Finalist, Bob Walker, having been judged on perseverance, initiative and other traits of character, was of- fered many scholarships from col- leges all over the United States. 61 62 GfuSs 75ancf features 63 Student Council President: Haley Barbour Vice-President Paul Evans Secretary: Carol Davis Sponsor:' Mr. Harold Kelly Representatives SENIORS Mary Anderson Diane Hassin David Hatchett Skippy Teaster JUNIORS Ronnie Harris Mac McGraw David Roberts SOPHOMORES Cam Chapman Bill Stampley FRESHMEN Meridith Foose David Ryan The meeting will now come to order,” President Haley Barbour said to the council.

Some of its many activities this year included sponsoring homecoming, selling Yazoo Indian pen- nants, commemorating annual Teacher Appreciation Week, and supervising student council elections. Ex- ercising one of its privileges, the Student Council amended the YHS constitution so that each home- room could have one representative with voice but no vote. Make sure you get it straight! admonishes Jerry Neal to Mark Merkle. We really want it to look good.” These two boys proudly display the safety poster entered in competition by Coach Clark’s homeroom during Safety Month. I don’t care if the roof is falling in or not, David, I’m going to buy one of these Indian pennants, shouts Griffin Norquist to David Hatchett as Ronnie Harris eagerly solicits the funds of his fellow students. 64 Safety Council BOTTOM ROW: Tommy Browning, Anne Hines, Cam Chapman, Meredith Foose, Lanie Thomas.

Safety plays a vital part in all school activities. Certain rules have been made regarding the safety of all the students. Running and yelling are forbidden in the halls as well as on the steps. The many safety rules of the school are established for our own benefit and each student should try to regard them at all times. Honorable judges, worthy opponents, ladies and gentlemen, thus the 1964-65 Yazoo High Debate team officially began their debating year in an as- sembly program. The topic for this year, Disarmament, was discussed in a heated debate among our own members as practice for the real interschool competition in Hattiesburg, where they won six out of ten debates. Only the team members participated in the tourna- ments, but their back-ups were prepared to take over if necessary. BOTTOM ROW: Winnie Wilson, Sheila Bland. SECOND ROW: Jo Reeves. Sharon King.

The aims of the staff were to achieve an All- American rating, and, more important, to please the stu- dent body and faculty. Under the expert guidance of Mrs. Watson, weary staffers worked long hours until the desired result was attained. New recruits had to be trained and deadlines had to be met. Things got hectic at times, but all efforts were well rewarded when another memorable year was captured between the covers of the 1965 MINGO CHITO.

The light burned late in the press room while the dedicated staffers applied their writing skills to pro- duce the monthly paper. The YAZOOAN won high acclaim in national competitior , but even more im- portant, it was the pride of the entire student body. BOTTOM ROW: B. Humphreys, S. Powell, J. Roberts, S. O'Brien, B.

Mary Sutherland, Elaine Roark, and Beth Langston proudly admire their scrapbook which won second place at the State Library Association of Mississippi. Beth was elected vice-presi- dent of this state-wide group. As always, the club presented an unusual and de- lightful assembly program. Shrieks and screams filled the auditorium as Ringo Starr, alias Brig Harris, was introduced on the To Tell the Truth panel. The four seekers of truth tried to discern the imposters. Book reviews were given to acquaint the members with a wide variety of books. Every YHS student has access to the library and profits by the invaluable assistance of the student librarians.

Gosh, Mr. Miller, this incessant writing really strains my brain,” exclaims a harried Writers’ Club member. The unrelenting sponsor continued, however, to enforce the adage Practice makes perfect. By writ- ing features, editorials, and news and sports stories, the novice writers became more aware of the world of journalism. They also learned to plan and draw up pages to be better trained as potential members of one of our publication staffs. I want to sit by the window, shouts Jimmy Hollis as the F.B.L.A. club members depart for their annual convention at Ole Miss. Twelve members entered in various phases of competition there.

Leshe and Mr. Richard Murphy, who spoke to them on horticulture and flower arrangements. Lights! Camera! Action! Invaluable experience was gained by the prodigies of Mr. Jimmy Caldwell, the Jr.-Sr. Dramatics Club sponsor and the talented speech teacher at YHS, in the enacting of pantomimes and one-act plays, as well as through participation in the Senior play. In these, the club members achieved con- fidence and self-assurance. President, Penny Woodell; Vice-President, Nancy Wigginton; Secretary-Treasurer, Lucy Shackelford. BOTTOM ROW: L. Miller, E.

Fresh.-So Aspiring to the day when they may become mem- bers of the Junior-Senior Dramatics Club and perhaps be a part of the senior play cast, the Freshman-Sopho- more Dramatic Club indulged in a pursuit of the knowledge of the theater. At each meeting, the club enacted short plays or portions of longer ones. These novice performers diligently practice their acting skills, hoping that the cameras they face will not be candid. i. Dramatics After long hours of tedious work and hard study, the young Thespians presented a play, Thanksgiving Beats the Dutch,” for the delight and enjoyment of the student body and faculty. Under the supervision of Miss Ann Rogers, the members gave interpretive readings and learned acting skills. President. Ann Lambert; Vice-President. Jimmy Spears; Secretary-Treasurer, Marsha Gelman.

Later in the year, however, proposals, screams, and clashing paddles were heard as the Y-Club held what they termed one of the most successful Y-Club initiations ever.” To show their appreciation to head coach Red” Jenkins, the members bought frames for pictures of his former teams and financed the laying, of a new tile floor in his office. Proceeds from the initiation, carwash, and the Y-Club dance went for this project. At the dance, Caroline Barbour was crowned the Y-Club Sweetheart for 1965. 74 Okay, sophomores, get in line!” yells Norma Faye Hum- phries as she realizes that her row is out of line. Leaders Linda Carley, Tish Rainer, and Lucy Shackelford worked in conjunction with Miss Louise Hendrix, sponsor. Gee, you would think we were in an army camp the way those seniors keep yelling at us to keep in step! exclaimed a bewildered underclassman as she marched along the parade route. After careful practice the Pep Squad marched in the football parades before home games. Every Friday the members, dressed in red and black uniforms, took their places in pep assembly. They cheered and shook rah-rahs to help raise the spirit and enthusiasm of the team and student body before the game that night. The Pep Squad was aided greatly by the invaluable assistance of their sponsor Miss Louise Hendrix. BOTTOM ROW: I. Judge, S. Lungrin, S. Clark, J. Arender, J. McDaniel, J. Josey, N. Humphries, M.

As in previous years, the Y-Teens worked diligently for improvement of mind, character, and personality and for the promotion of Christian attitudes among the students of YHS. Several projects were under- taken by the girls during the year. The first was a Christmas offering of food and gifts to a needy family. At Easter a similar project was carried out. To finance these projects, several car washes were held. With the advent of spring and spring fever, the Y-Teens had a beatnik party. Exotic paintings and unusual poetry readings highlighted the occasion. Educational and entertaining programs were given by various guest speakers. Biographies of several famous Christian men and women were presented during club meetings. Miss Carroll, the ardent young sponsor, boosted the ego of the members with her own enthusiasm.

A family was adopted” at Christmas and was presented an assort- ment of Christmas goodies.” When Easter ap- proached, several Y-Teen members eagerly prepared Easter baskets so the Bunny could surprise three- little children of a deserving family. Under the expert leadership of Mrs. Israel, with the cooperation of the club members, other commendable deeds were carried out to further develop the Christian character of its members. The Girls’ 4-H Club of YHS represents one of the many working 4-H Clubs throughout America. The motto To make the best better, truly exemplifies the spirit of this group. At the' Annual Achievement Banquet, this club had four medal winners: Linda Carson, Bee Bee Shirley, Betty Lane, and Sandra Harris. The 4-H Club strives to help America’s Youth to be more active citizens today and to be better prepared for the world of tomorrow. Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all? ponders a 4-H Club member. Also members of the electrical club, these young ladies participated in various electrical projects.

This year the two most often chosen fields in 4-H work were agriculture and animal husbandry. In these fields the boys learned the advantages of different methods. On appointed Wednesdays Mr. Coats and Mr. Jimmy Burchfield met with the group and reviewed new and improved farm and livestock techniques with them. Two members of the club, Thomas Strickland and Denny Paul, were also members of the Yazoo County Livestock Judging Team along with John Phillips of Holly Bluff and Mike Chester of Benton. The team won first place ratings in Greenwood and at the Mis- sissippi State Fair. Denny Paul won a trip to 4-H Congress at Chicago through his outstanding 4-H achievements and his work with his prize lamb. Through hard work and diligent study, each member better prepared himself as a leader of tomorrow. Thomas Strickland seems to agree that the judg- ing team deserved the first place they won. Denny Paul proudly displays his winning lamb and the ribbons he won in showmanship. 78 Jets President: Paul Evans Vice-President: Johnny P.

And so goes another Jet Club meeting where these eager young scientists tried their skills in experimentation. The avid group worked to increase their knowledge of the mysteries of science . The Jets sponsored the annual Science Fair and presented awards to the top winners. Mr. Buckley, it we take the square root of the logarithm of this number and then cube it and divide by five, I think we’ll find that 1 + 1=2,” exclaims one of our more advanced mathematicians.

Mixed Chorus Early in the school year, the Mixed Chorus inspired the audience with their beautiful singing at the Sacred Music Concert held at the First Presbyterian Church. The various seasons of the year were joyously met with songs by the Mixed Chorus. At Christmas the group presented Christmas Music at Home and Abroad. As an encore, they sang a revised version of the traditional Jingle Bells. In an assembly program, the chorus presented an Easter special portraying the Crucifixion. Always in demand, they sang part of their special at the Easter Sunrise Service. After long hours of intense practice, the Mixed Chorus and the other choral organizations partici- pated in the District choral festival in Jackson. There, the Girls’ Sextet and Boys’ Quartet received superior ratings. Following this, the Girls’ Sextet participated in the state choral festival. Patience, practice, and hard work were combined to make this year one of the most successful for the Mixed Chorus. By their untiring efforts.

The shows and pre- cision marching were executed with great style and added much to each game. The band participated in several parades including the annual Winter Festival in Greenwood and the Yazoo City Christmas Parade. With many hours of early morning and late after- noon practices behind them and filled with high hopes, the marching band presented a difficult show of precision drills for State Band Contest and re- ceived an excellent rating. They were led on the field by Drum Majorette Kathy Crowder. Other officers were President Paul Evans, Vice-President Bill Mashburn, Secretary Caro- lyn Quin and Librarian Eileen Wilkinson. Drum Majorette Kathy Crowder 85 Majorettes This year the band was led onto the field by a high-spirited group of majorettes. Beginning their preparation for the football season in the summer months, these girls worked hard, long hours in both private and group practice learning and perfecting original marching, twirling, and dance routines. They performed looking their best despite the wind and rain that occurred during some of the parades and football pre-game and half-time shows. For the an- nual Christmas parade the majorettes all got new uniforms designed by Carolyn Quin, for which they were highly praised. Adding color, variety, and in- terest to the YHS marching band, the vivacious major- ettes were as fine a group as any school could wish— a group worthy of this school’s pride.

This organization is open by audition to all band members and rounds out the music program for the more advanced students who give their own time for weekly practice sessions. Through the sale of circus tickets, the band was able to secure navy blazers, and made a sharp appearance at the stage band festival in early May. They performed many times during the year by invitation including programs for the state PAY convention, the Mozart music club, and the thrill- ing experience of playing for 7,000 people at the state coliseum for the State Citizen Council Rally. This group is directed by Mr. Donald Vaughan. Director Ronald Vaughan accepts an invitation for the stage band to play at the PAY Convention. 87 BOTTOM ROW: Carolyn Quin, Marcia Gelman, Sarah Morgan, Mariane Cox, Betty Pearson, Betty Jo Beers, Bess Hinshaw, Robin Lewis, Shelia Wilson, Melanie Vaughan, Sandra Harris, Karen Clard.

Under the direction of Mr. Stanley C. Beers, the band improved its instrumentation and musical cjual- ity. Through the playing of both classical and mod- ern pieces, members increased their knowledge of interpretation, styles and the art of musicianship. High point for the band was the band festival held in Clinton in May. 88 Peggy Stroup, Jim Spears, Larry Carter, Allan Story, Bill Mashburn, Marion Fitzhugh, Danny Ellison, Billie Hearon, Kay Smith.

Senior Members These eight band members have faithfully performed their many duties throughout their band careers. Several plan to continue their music by participation in various col- lege bands next fall. James Dawes and Kathy Crowder have been awarded band scholarships to the Univer- sity of Mississippi and Uni- versity of Southern Missis- sippi respectively. Stepping high to the beat of the bass drum, the Yazoo City March- ing Band demonstrates the look of precision drill. The Stage Band warms up before its performance at the coliseum in Jackson. At right is vocalist Frances Cooper. Long hours of practice, determination, desire for perfection, and a deep love and appreciation of music are the qualities exempli- fied by our outstanding musicians. Those who participate in en- sembles, solos, clinics, Lions band tryouts; those who give their all, their best, these are the students we honor on these pages. Their rewards may be letters, certificates or medals, but more important is their deep satisfaction of a job well done. Carolyn Quin was presented the Tau Beta Sigma award for out- standing bandswoman and a medal for superior work as student conductor. Kathy Crowder was recognized as the most valuable member by selection of the band, and received medals for superiors earned in drum major and alto sax solo. 90 These outstanding band members were selected to participate in the state and district clinics.

In short, she typified all that a Miss YHS should or could be. Known for his cocky friendliness and versatility, Haley Barbour was elected Mr. YHS, capping four years of honors at Yazoo High. The Student Body Presidency came to him after serving as Veep” the preceding year. He lettered two years in football, four in baseball, and captained both teams his senior year.

National Honor Society Suspense grew as anxious juniors and seniors awaited that long-anticipated event, the National Honor Society program. On the very special day, April 8, 1965—the day when the worry, wondering, and work of some really paid off—twenty-two mem- bers were initiated into the honor society. The 1964 members defined the Society’s purpose and empha- sized the importance of its requirements—character, scholarship, leadership, and service. Haley Barbour served as narrator during the pro- gram. Holding the candle with the gold ribbon sym- bolizing the golden rays of knowledge, Betty Kellum showed the importance of scholarship in determining success. Kathy Crowder, displaying the royal purple of leadership, pointed out the fact that one must be able to follow before he can lead. Carolyn Quin’s candle with the white ribbon reflected the purity of character.

The 1964 Indian Football squad was under the direction of four of the finest coaches who stress the importance of proper physical condition and the right mental attitude. This year, this leadership was provided by Head Coach Eulas Red” Jenkins and his assistants Leslie Clark, Jerry Brown, and Jerry Johnson. Coach Jenkins came to Yazoo from Southwest Junior College in 1959. Since that time he has tremendously increased the overall winning record and boosted school spirit. However one coach, no matter how great cannot produce a championship team. Thus Coach Jenkins has heavily depended on his assistants who were among the best in the Big-8.

Permanent captains are elected by the team members at the end of each season. The captains are chosen ac- cording to the qualities of sportsmanship and leadership which they possess. Elected as captains this year were cen- ter Buz Morrow a two year letterman, guard Haley Barbour also a two year letterman and Wayne Finley a three year letterman at end. Head Manager David Hatchett, assisted by senior manager Griffin Norquist, had the responsibility of supervising underclassmen James Berberette and Jim Broocks. David Hatchett and Jim Broocks eagerly carried out the duties of team trainers while Griffin Norquist and James Berberette performed the duties of managers. This team was the most efficient in the history of YHS. Bobby Jones, Buz Morrow and Ray Hiedel proudly display their trophies received for their outstanding gridiron performances. The faith of the team in Buz Mor- row, All-Big Eight Center, was proven at the T.D. club banquet when he was presented the Best Blocker and Tackier Award and the Most Valuable Player Trophy. Because of an incessant desire for improvement and development of body co-ordination Bobby Jones was selected by the coaching staff as the Most Im- proved Player. Ray Heidel can truly be proud of himself for possessing the high qualities of sportsmanship both on and off the field which were necessary to win him the Fred Rand Memorial Sportsmanship Award. Ill Guard Tommy Cooper springs Obie McClure on a 12-yard gallop. Quarterback Ray Heidel sneaks it across Tupelo’s double-stripe. Ray Heidel sweeps around left end in Columbus tilt. This vigorous 1964 Indian squad began practice in the extreme heat of early August to prepare for their season opener against Jackson Provine. The Indians proved to be a worthy tribe, but the Rams proved to be a little more spirited and emerged the victor by a 19-13 score. Dennis Melton prepares to stick a Clarksdale halfback as ' Big Ben” Burrell looks on ominously. 112 Corner back Dennis Melton and the Big Kid” Jim Simmons try desperately to keep Columbus halfback Doug Dale from rounding the corner. On the following week Tupelo’s Golden Wave visited Yazoo and topped the scoring list 9-7 on a field goal. Next the Indians, hungry for a victory, trecked to Wildcat” country. Sparkling both on of- fense and defense, the Redmen whipped the Clarks- dale-Cohoma Cats 14-6 and happily recorded their first victory of the season. Linebacker Haley Barbour and end Wayne Finley prepare to put the ''quietus” on a stumbling Provine halfback. � .f Defensive safeties Perrin Ferris and Ray Heidel yank Corinth's quarterback away from the goal line. 113 On several occasions the spectacular ball handling of senior quarterback, Perrin Ferris, brought the Indians out of deep holes. Here he is shown rounding right end after faking to fullback Obie McClure. The fake sucked in the whole Murrah team and Perrin ran 27 yards for a TD without a hand put on him. This put the Indians ahead 14-13 in that ill-fated game. Specialist Ray Heidel boots the pigskin through the Ciarks- dale uprights to give Yazoo a first quarter 7-0 lead. End Jim Simmons bobbles pass before making a circus catch. On September 25 the Indians hosted a spirited Murrah team. After a hard fought battle, in which the Indians came from behind to have the Mustangs 14-13 in the final seconds, Murrah booted a field goal on a disputed fifth” down and was given a 16-14 decision. The ensuing week saw the Indians make a comeback edging Jackson Central 14-7. 114 Indian quarterback Ray Heidel is stopped by a rugged Provine Ram. Following the trip to Tiger” land the Indians en- tertained the Greenwood Bulldogs on the home field. This old rival game seemed to inspire the Yazooans who piled up a 16-6 score over the doggies. Now on the winning streak, the Indians went on the war- path and trompled the Vicksburg Greenies 26-14 on Homecoming night. Obie McClure eludes a. Columbus safety and sprints up the field on one of the many determined runs that helped the Indians move the ball during each game. McClure was a main cog in a Yazoo City offense that averaged 14 points a game. Outstanding linebacker Buz” Morrow makes a saving tackle on a Canton Panther. 115 Tommy Cooper and Ben Newton start to end the. run of the Clarks- dale quarterback, as Richard Murphy and Haley Barbour come up fast to make sure thaf the job gets finished. Heidel carries as Simmons flattens a Tupelo defender. Sophomore halfback Jeffery Smith is hauled down by 2 Corinth warriors after a short gain. The next week the Indians traveled to the North- east corner of the state, only to lose to Corinth 35-14 after taking a 7-0 lead. On the following week the Redmen rode into Hornet’' territory, again took an early 7-0 lead, but saw powerful Greenville grab a 34-14 decision. The Indians returned home and held North Big-8 Champions Columbus scoreless until the final minutes when the Generals picked off a 14-0 win. Closing the season the Indians hosted arch- rival Canton and slapped them 20-7 116 Ninth Grade Football BOTTOM ROW: Mgr.

Head Coach SAMMY HOWARD Line Coach EL EDMONDS They said it was impossible. It had neyer been accomplished before—but, the ninth grade Warriors did it. Under the excellent guidance of Coaches Sammy Howard and El Edmonds, the ninth grade Wafriors completed their first perfect season in school history. This high spirited team reported for practice in the extreme heat of late August. Neither the heat nor hard work seemed to bother the members of this talented team and because of this desire to suck it up and go” they were able to reward the Coaches and city with their first perfect season.

The books finally closed on the football season and all attention was focused toward the Yazoo Indian Cagers’ schedule. This year’s team was com- posed of only four varsity veterans and eight ad- vancements from last year’s B-Team. Under the guidance of rookie” Coach El Edmonds, a man of superb talents, the varsity cagers posted a 6-16 rec- ord. Although the record was not one to be admired. Coach Edmonds was well-pleased with the individual performances of many of his team members. This team could well be called a building team,” for many of its members were young and inexperi- enced. From a group of twelve, only five were seniors. Although the number of losses greatly out- numbered the wins, the year cannot be classed un- successful; much needed experience in shooting, dribbling, and team work was gained. The 1965 Indian Basketeers went into every en- counter with a desire to win, yet realizing that only one team could emerge the victor. However, this realization of victory did not hamper their spirit or fight, and when the game was over, if they had to accept defeat, they did so in a sportsmanlike manner, remembering well the words of Grantland Rice: It matters not whether he won or lost, but how he played the game.” Basketball Managers Butch Hill and Charles Jackson eagerly prepare the game balls for play just before an exciting encounter with arch rival Holly Bluff. I 18 Coach Edmonds hurriedly briefed starting five on last minute instructions which were necessary to win in crucial times like these. Jim Simmons (24) captured all glory by gaining possession of the ball as David Roberts (12) received only the knocks and bruises.

With no opponent in sight Ray Heidel decided to get in a little practice shcpting. Jim Simmons quickly took his golden op- © portunity which proved good for two. David Roberts and Mac McGraw stood ready for the tip-off as the ' Big-Kid'' leaped high into the. air at the start of the half. 120 BOTTOM ROW: Bill Stampley, Jeff Smith, Richard Saxton, Johnny Wilson, Pete Cook, Donnie Newbaker.

B-Team Although the record of the B-Team posted only two wins from a rugged ten-game schedule, their season was much better than the win-loss record showed. All ten teams they met were strong, experienced, Big-8 competitors and many proved to be just a little too much for the junior cagers. However, the experience gained from their encounters will be a vital asset to next year's varsity' team.

Indianettes This year’s Indianettes, under the leadership of Coaches Hester and Rush, wound up with a most im- pressive season. Including tournament competition, their record stood at 9 wins and 5 losses. This was a record which all team members could look upon and say a job well done!” The nucleus of the team was developed around the six returning lettermen, but many outstanding in- experienced underclassmen were great assets to the Indianettes. Next year's team should i be an experienced one with a great desire to win.

Football This year’s Intramural foot- ball season was a booming suc- cess. Under the direction of Student Council Vice-President Paul Evans, the teams showed high spirit and good sports- manship throughout the tour- nament. The teams were com- posed of six men, each wear- ing a flag in his back pocket. The opposition would attempt to pull the flag out and when he did, the person was down. This method prevented many injuries, as the tournament had only one serious injury and that being a knee injury to Colin Campbell. Kinneth Hope rounds right end in a futile attempt to score against Hester's seniors, but Johnny Ross gets his flag just in time. Such action as this highlighted the sea- son and made it a big success. 132 Caroline Barbour seems to be pushed away from the action by defensive ace, Pam Warden, as Sheila Bland looks on.

We gratefully and humbly thank all whose help was indispensible in the publication of this 19th edition. We tried to reflect every phase of life at YHS . . . a crowd in the halls ... a tired Yazooan worker . . . a touch football game ... a face in the crowd . . . and the reign of our Homecoming queen. So when you thumb through these pages and see yourself—think of it as a movement recalled and stamped forever on these pages. Just think, if we hadn't taken a picture of it, you may not have remembered. We, the staff of the 1965 MINGO CHITO, hope this yearbook will bring you as many happy moments as we received in compiling it. 155 BEST WISHES TO THE CLASS OF '65 156 LAMAR HOTEL YAZOO BOWLING LANES In Yazoo Northwest Shopping Center FREE BOWLING INSTRUCTION NURSERY — MEETING ROOM — RESTAURANT BOWLING BALLS — BAGS — SHOES — SHIRTS — ACCESSORIES 157 HIGHWAY 49-E JIMMY WEBER, Mgr.
