Clear Spring High School - Trailblazer Yearbook (Clear Spring, MD)

Text from Pages 1 - 76 of the 1955 volume:

To you, the students of Clear Spring High School, we pre sent your 1955 annual Trailblazer. We hope that in future years your Trailblazer will be reminis cent of your enjoyable days at C.H. S. in 1954-55. Very sincerely, Mary Ann Hesson We wish to congratulate George Eksteins, '52, for drawing an original picture for the title TRAILBLAZER. I selected the name, TRAILBLAZER, for our school's first yearbook because our forefathers, the pioneers of America, expanded and blazed trails through the wilderness to procure their livelihood. In like manner, when we graduate from high school, we, too, shall be blazing our own trails through life, seek- ing a living of our own. To me, this title seems especially appropriate for our yearbook because Clear Spring is located near the base of the Appalachian Mountains which were in- deed a great barrier to the early trail blazers of our country. One of the main pioneer trails was our present highway route 40 on which Clear Spring is lo- cated. The proximity of this route influenced me in choosing TRAILBLAZER. David Walrath, '50 s4t uz Tftatex ALMA MATER By The Class of '53 I All hail to Clear Spring High! All hail to blue and gold! We'll cherish thy name forever; Thy praises will e'er be told.

'DccUcoUok We, the class of 1955, dedicate our yearbook to Mr. Donald C. Haugh for his loyalty, his devotion, his guidance to all his pupils, his unself- ishness, and for his excellent instruction.
