This year, the Bulldogs lost heartbreakers to New- Catholic Hi of Little Rock, Beebe, Harrisburg, Augusta, Walnut Ridge, Batesville, and Brinkley. One of the highlights of the season was the tie with the Searcy Lions, which put the highest of spirit in- to the 'Dogs. Then they racked up a very close win, rolling over an Atkins team from Northwest Arkan- sas. The only other wln of the season came from a Heber Springs eleven on the home field. Although the team will lose some of the main cogs of the line and some mainstay backs, Coach Willis and his team are looking forward to bettering this record next season.

First, we want to express our appreciation to Mr. Wayne Cranford for the many, many hours of trial and tribulation he went through in helping us to publish this annual for you. We give hlm special recognition here because we realize he has made many contributions to our school. In the three years he has been here, we have brought the Knob into existence, to say nothing of the other contributions he has made. Ye old Bulldog staff I You could never be replaced! Nadine Kilman and Anna Hicks, your art work is unforgettable. Pat DeLille, Judy Reed, Jeanette King, Glonda Collins, and Phillis Cothern, we hope your efforts in selling ads and preparing copy have been rewarded. The many letters and records that Betty Smith and Anna Hicks slaved over meant a lot to the success of this venture, and your efforts are appreciated. Helen Barber, Reva Fletcher, Llewellyn Kilman, Madelyn Young, and Louise Freppon, you were all diligent workers, and your accomplishments were terrific. Frances Adair, simply nowhere could we have found a better assistant editor. Your quiet performance of your duties was just what we needed. And get a load of that great sports editor, Bob Wallace, and his two classy assistants, Tom Alston and Bob Clark! Without their sports section and their strong ideas about the rest of the pages, this book would be far from complete. And, of course, we're grateful to Mr. Lubker and Mr. Webb, for without them, there could have been no annual for us to pack all these wonderful memories in. And to all our teachers whose classes we had to miss sometimes, we'll never forget you. To Mr. LeRoy Brock and the Hurley Publishing Company, we owe a real vote of appre- clation for the many helpful hints and the real personal interest in our book. And to our classmates and fellow students, the time has come for even the best of friends to part .... 1Signedl Arba Della Goodln and Carletta Carter 4--- wwe: Q...- ,.
