Letter To The Editor
Editor:
The people of the Perry community have always been
interested in their youth—not only in athletic endeavors but
sszx Peergc rosea and ewe:
moved back in the last 95 years are to be commended for
continuing to serve the community, pay the taxes, build the
schools, churches, YMCA, etc. These people have a strong
community and one that I’m sure most are proud of. I know
that I have always been proud to tell people I’m from Perry
and graduated from Perry High School and that I AM A
PERRY MAROON! The people of Perry are to be com-
mended for the job they have done and are doing.
We (the Perry High School Alumni Association) want
to do an outstanding job for this community and especially
for the future graduates of PHS. We want everyone to be
an Alumni Association member, either as a graduate or as
a friend (associate member). We realize that some won’t
join because they really don’t understand the purposes and
goals of the Alumni Association. That will be our job, along
with the community leaders that understand the impact this
can make on this community not only now but in future
years, to explain how membership will help Perry.
We want to make a concentrated effort over the next
few years to develop an Alumni Association and scholar-
ship program (based on need) that everyone will want to
support. We know if we do these things properly, the sup-
port will come and people will be proud of what they have
done. We want the scholarship program (based on need)
to be large enough that it will continue to serve the youth
who graduate from Perry High School from this day
forward.
I know and feel that others in the Alumni Association,
plus community leaders, realize this will not be an easy
task! However, I have often been told that “anything wor-
thwhile never comes easy.” And as an athlete and ex-
teacher/ coach, I’ve heard the over-used statement, "No
pain, no gain”! But if everyone will really think about what
can be accomplished by creating this large scholarship fund
for the future of the Perry youth, the task can be
accomplished.
We can only dream of what might have been or what
might be! When we put action into dreams though, things
begin to happen. I dream of the day when any child,
regardless of race, color, creed, religion or social status,
can be assured they will be given some kind of financial
assistance if they meet the criteria of the Alumni Associa-
tion, which will be minimal but will discourage mediocrity
and will be based on need.
They will be assured that money by itself will not be
a major barrier in keeping them from a higher education
if they really have a heart’s desire to receive and achieve.
We need everyone’s help, physically, mentally, and
financially! We especially need co-operation and understan-
ding from all areas of the Perry community. The people
of the Perry community need to understand this scholar-
ship program is going to benefit their children, grand-

Its First
Deposit
OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI)
— Oklahoma will make its
first deposit of $78 million in-
to its Constitutional Reserve
Fund, also known as the
“rainy day fund,” Director of

Holmes said the state

State Board of Equalization
certified $2,319 billion for the
state to spend.
Collections exceeded the
certified amount by $78
million.

Director
Of ‘South
Pacific’ Dies
By BRUCE OLSON
NEW YORK (UPI) -
Joshua Logan, who produced
and directed “South Pacific”
and “Mr. Roberts” during
one of the most versatile
careers in the history of the
Broadway theater, died at his
home in Manhattan after a
long illness. He was 79.
Logan died at 3 p.m. Tues-
day from supranuclear palsy,
a debilitating disease from
which he suffered for six
years, said Ethel Weinstein,
his personal secretary.
la addition to directing and
producing the stage version of
Rogers and Hammerstein’s
“South Pacific,” Logan co-
wrote'the musical and in 1950
won the Pulitzer Prize for his
work on the long-running
show, which was based on a
book by James Michener.
Logan also was co-author,
director and producer of “Mr.
Roberts” and a spin-off play
based, on a character in that
drama, “Ensign Pulver,” as
well as “Wish You Were
Here," and “Fanny.”
“Hie whole damn theater is
alive and vibrating when Josh
is at work,” said lyricist
Oscar Hammerstein II at the
peak of Logan's career.
Logan was born in Texar-
kana, Texas, on Oct. 5, 1908.
A handsome 6-footer, he at-
tended Culver Military
Academy and Princeton
University. He was one of the
founders of the University
Players on Cape Cod, acting
with James Stewart, Henry
Fonda and Margaret
Sullivan.
