AMARILLO
HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1954 |
The
Paramont sign has been restored. Bright new/old life
has returned to Polk street and this is returning a
very memorable part of our school years. A beautiful friend is now bright and
beautiful again. Many a dream began with an invite to
the Paramount theater. Ju-Ju-Fruits, Junior Mints,
popcorn, dill pickles and none of these cost $10. The
best of times, good friends and good movies.
Marilyn & Jerrie Hill, Scottie Mullins and I were
all thrilled to see our old friend return. Something
to look for in September - DRAGGING POLK will be
closer to the way it was in 1954.

Remember
the drive down Polk
street... how beautiful at
night. Remember AHS... how the halls reeked of the smell
of freshly sharpened pencils.
Remember the cool brisk early
morning breeze blowing through the
wide open windows in Mrs Atlanta
Kaye's room. How about when a
certain pitcher, I wont mention
any names, threw the baseball
through Mr. Swettman's window...
he was demonstrating his latest
pitching style.
Then
there was Noel and Louetta always
walking down the halls hand in
hand. Remember all the special
friendships... the bonds that
could never be broken, the trusts
that were never questioned. Well,
those friendships, those bonds and
those trusts still exist even
today.
Come and share with us, the
memories and joys of those years
and rekindle those old
relationships. Once a month we get
together to keep the comradre
alive. Meet us for lunch the last
Thursday of each month in Furrs
Cafeteria in Western Plaza Mall at
6:00pm.
