  • Nederland Cheerleaders
    Congratulations and Best Wishes SMITHS BLUFF REFINERY 40th Anniversary Year I Foreword Dear Students, The old glass dome lamp was a famil­ iar sight at the time that the first PILOT was published. Many couples often strolled in a park and hesitated underneath the comfort of its glow. Just as the lamp sym­ bolizes a bygone era, the staff and I have labored to produce a yearbook which re­ flects the unprecedented events of the 1963- 1964 school year. Through the tragic and exhilarating, you, the students of Nederland High School, have alternately been saddened and thrilled. For many of you eniors, this is the culmination of your formal education; may your school years serve you well in your chosen career. For those who continue into college, you have a strong foundation upon which to base your future. To the under­ classmen, a word from one who has already passed this way: Do not allow yourself to become entangled by the petty, for these are surely the most productive and valuable years of your lives. In closing, we challenge each of you to excel through vision, enlightenment, and understanding. As you reminisce through the pages of this 30th Anniversary Issue of the PILOT, may you recognize the signifi­ cance of a most wonderful year. If you stu­ dents are pleased by this record of your achievements and disappointments, then our endeavors shall be rewarded. With best hopes for each of you, R. L. Diaz, Jr. Editor 1964 PILOT 3 66 Let the worJ go forth froirn. this tiirn.e amudl place o o o th.<lfi:t the torch has lbeen JJ_J>asseJ to a new generati?n of A:nrn.erricanso 99 4 .

This is her story told in pictures of working, playing, and learning to­ gether. It is a story of a school dedi­ cated to an intangible ideal that to­ morrow's achievements are built on today's accomplishments. To many of us, the passing of this year simply means that we are one year older. To seniors, it means the year of fulfillment. Plans begun years ago have come to completion. Friendships formed become deeper as the time for separation draws near. This year is filled with cher­ ished memories; the important games we fought to win; the first, and for some of us, the last high school dance; the feeling of accomplishment that comes with the last years of school. School spirit, sentimental mo­ ments of youth, happiness, and sor­ row, with occasional time out for studies all combine to complete a school year. We, the PILOT Staff, have taken these factors and made of them a permanent record, as memories are permanent, in the 1962 PILOT. This is N.H.S. in the 60's and the people who go here. ~ ' ~ Editor There are black and gold colors bright In a banner soaring high above There's a field where the Bulldogs fight To glorify something they love There's a PILOT filled with the faces, Of friends who have come and gone; Here are dear, old hallowed places Never forgotten as time stretches on. R. L. Ropp The person we chose for the dedication of the 1962 PILOT is someone that touches the lives· of every student and teacher in Nederland High School, either directly or indirectly.
