ejt)edicci tion This first yearbook of Halifax County High School is dedicated to the man who has dedicated himself to the service of others. This he has done with sincerity—a sin¬ cerity that breeds confidence and respect. With a philosophy that speaks of faith, hope, and charity, he believes in the worth of the individual, he sees no problem without a solution, and he is filled with the disposition to think well of others. Faced with every conceivable problem in school ad¬ ministration, he has proved his greatness. The students here offer this dedication, inadequate and cumbersome though it is, to express this truth: We are deeply thank¬ ful that J. Marshall Swanson is our principal.

2 7 oreworcL Nineteen hundred and fifty-three was an historic year for Halifax County. On September seventeenth, all high school students in the county came together for the first time, and Halifax County High School was, at last, a reality. This is our first yearbook. Like all of our efforts in our new school, this is merely a beginning. We are sure that we must proceed cau¬ tiously, keeping our feet on solid ground even while our ambitions and aims soar in the clouds. Here, then, is a record of our first year, told simply and unpre¬ tentiously. In almost every detail, you will find our yearbook conven¬ tional—even conservative. The name HALISCOPE was voted the favorite by an overwhelming majority of HCHS students. It couples the first part of our school name with scope , which means extent or range of view . The members of the first Senior Class of Halifax County High School hope that the thousands of people to whom this school means so much will find in this book a worthy view of our first year together. 6
