MR. F. T. DOBBS Principal On first arriving at Gadsden High as Freshmen, we thought little of what the future might hold. We soon realized, though, that we must begin thinking of the years to come and how we could prepare for them. Our thoughts were aimed toward graduation and the time we would be on our own. During this period of preparation, we were helped by our principal, Mr. F. T. Dobbs, who counseled and guided us with understand- ing and patience. He helped in- cite our ambition and desire to move forward with modern times and show a progression not to be surpassed.
