Miss Bibb and Miss Ida Patter- son, a former teacher, chat on Otter Night. In finding the solution of a difficult math or science problem, interpreting a difficult play or poem in English or a foreign language, studying the past, or developing vocational skills, students have found that members of faculty and administration are their friends, able and eager to help in the quest for knowl- edge. Perhaps even more important is their giving of their energy and personalities to help the students solve their personal problems. There is no way of knowing the number of times a perceptive faculty member has encouraged a disappointed student and caused him to see a difficult situation in a new light and understand himself and others better. In the back- ground of all Bedford High triumphs are teachers and administration officials who have laid the foundation and made the success possible. The success story of any student is a reflection of cooperation between the student and interested advisors. I ' Gam Ie OP Loy we (=) oMMT=) arg exe | as principal for many years.

The years of Bedford High School have been pleasant, productive, and creative. Faculty, ad- ministration, school board members, parents and patrons, and many others in our community have contributed to help us reach educational achieve- ments which were attainable only through the combined efforts of all, and we are justly proud of Bedford High School. Change or progress usually bring with them feelings of regret and sorrow for what we must leave behind. This regret is absorbed, however, in the eagerness with which we look forward to our new school with its enlarged facilities and opportunities to reach even greater heights. ay pais Principal Bedford High School Teachers and Students PUulsue excellence Seep 32 Each member of the faculty strives for the suc- cess of each student. The high standards set by the Southern Association of Secondary Schools of which our school is a member encourages the school to adhere to worthy goals. Each year has seen the same fine instruction in every depart- ment with additions for progress where needed. Even as our school worked this final year, advanc- ed material was offered in the added public speak- ing and advanced algebra classes.
