 DEDICATION We, the Seniors of Nineteen Hundred and Forty-Seven, proudly dedicate this, the twenty-second volume of the CRUCIBLF, to one who has won a permanent place in all our hearts because she is our ideal, not only of a teacher, but of womanhood; to one who has shown her devotion to us by her willingness to sacrifice much of her personal time; one whose inspiration will continue to be felt long after our school days arc but a memory. We consider it a privilege to have been students of MISS ANNA RIA DAVIS

FOREWORD A new era has begun for the world; an era of new ideas, new ideals—the atomic era—era of new and wonderful things. As we face this world of today— long-awaited, long-fought-for — we firmly resolve that we shall all do our part in making this our world, and thereby, a better one. This year also signals the beginning of a new era for our school. It has brought us a new superintendent, a new principal, new teachers. Many changes arc already in evidence—progressive changes—changes that are sure to benefit the students, the faculty, and the community as a whole. The CRUCIBLE, too, has changed with the times. We, the staff, feel that this twenty-second volume of the CRUCIBLE, in its new format, better expresses our change of pace, our bright new outlook. We are proud to have been the group to begin this new project—a better annual for a better school. It is also our opinion that this marks only a beginning, and that in the future, the annual will make even greater strides forward.

Superintendent s Office This year was Mr. Nunn’s first as Superintendent of our schools. He has shown us that he is willing to cooperate with students in every possible way. Students admire him for his friendliness and willingness to help with every kind of problem. Having received much inspiration from Mr. Nunn, the senior class will long remember him as one of the nicest people in Fairfield High School. Or SUPERINTENDENT’S Sunerintcndrnl’s Secretaries Mr. Nunn is very ably assisted by two competent persons, Mrs. Gregory and Mrs. Wright. Mrs. Gregory has been in the Superintendent’s office for a number of years. She is known and loved by all for her helpfulness and kind understanding. Mrs. Wright came back to the office last year after several years’ absence. Everyone was glad to have her back and we hope she doesn’t ever leave us again. It is people like these who make coming to school a pleasure. Due to the fact that Mrs. Gregory and Mrs. Wright have so very much work to do, they are assisted by two students who have had commercial training. These girls, by helping with the office routine, gain much experience that will help them in later years. This year the student helpers arc Peggy Ponder and Betty Lou McLeroy.
