MEMQIRS YVhen Beaver's students and faculty move into the. new Bluefield High School they will take with them many memories of former days. Among these will be recollections ol the crowded first floor at noon . . . the crowd standing outside the East door . . , dances which were held in the gymnasium prior to this year . . . social clubs which Uno longer exist . . , the carnival as it was held in past years . . . room 306 . . . the cafeteria, which only this year's graduating seniors recall . . . our school songs . . . particularly our school songs . . . no longer will we hear the familiar and nostalgic Beaver High School, Hail to Thee, nor shall the gridiron resound to the pulse-quickening strains ol On, Ye Beavers . . So, with these memories in mind, and to help recall these very last days, we leave you what we fondly believe to be the most precious ol' our memoirs . . . Beaver High School, hail to thee! Spirit of our youth, Inspiration here we've found, lVisdom, strength, and truth. Beaver High! Beaver High! A song we raise to thee. In thy name we grasp the stars, And always loyal he, Beaver High School, hail to thee! School without a peer, To thy precepts we'll be true Strive both far and near. Beaver High! Beaver High! We owe to thee a debt. Love and knowledge here we've found And we shall not forget. On, Ye Beaver! On, Ye Beavers! We want you to see, That we are supporting you, A touchdown it must be. On, Ye Beavers! On. Ye Beavers! Fight ye Beavers true. Fight, Beavers, Fight, Fight, Fight- XVe're all for you! 24

l Mr. STEWART XVHITE MV- H- R- ROBINETT CUSTODIANS Our custodians, Mr. Stewart XfVhite and Mr. H. R. Robinett, are the persons responsible for seeing that our high school in these last days is kept warm, clean, and in good shape. To arise at four-thirty on a slick, cold, snowy winter day and to travel up Thomas Street is all part of the routine for Mr. X'Vhite, whose job it is to keep up steam in the boilers, to see that the furnaces are function- ing and fueled, and to perform the thousand and one attendant duties which such a job entails. Besides these duties, that of supervising and lending a helpful hand with the many extra functions which go on day and night are also a part of Mr. XVhite's normal activity. These services are always capably per- formed, whether it be in the dead of winter or the heat of summer. Not only do they perform more than their share of duties during school hours, but they willingly give their time and energy to make possible many of the extra-curricular activities of Beaver students. Mr. Robinett may be seen of early mornings dusting window ledges, and if the lights are seen burning late of evenings, it is Mr. Robinett still sweeping the many rooms which he takes care of, dusting and sweep- ing the gym or auditorium, or polishing and cleaning the hallways. VVith teachers, they appear busiest when they are teaching before their classes, but Mr. XVhite and Nlr. Robinett are busiest when they are working behind the scenes, in the furnace room or the hallways, when the building itself is usually deserted save for the lengthening shadows of oncoming night. As we Beaverites go through our last year at Beaver, we have had the opportunity to realize what loyal and efficient custodians we have in Mr. Wfhite and Mr. Robinett. XVe are certain that they will continue to uphold their high standard of workmanship in the new and modern Blueheld High School as they have done in these last days of Beaver. 23
