In Memoriam Mrs. E. Beatrice Riggs Hall Mrs. Beatrice Riggs Hall, wife of Mr. L. H. Hall, and former teacher of Price High School, departed this life, December 30, 1957. From 1924 to 1953, Mrs. Hall served faithfully and efficiently as a teacher at Price. Having received the Bachelor of Science degree from Talladega College and the Bachelor of Library Science degree from Western Reserve University, Mrs. Hall was well qualified to assume many duties. During her tenure, she taught mathematics, physical educa¬ tion, science, and later in her career, she became librarian. Mrs. Hall organized the Crown and Scepter Club, and was its sponsor for a number of years. She was also sponsor of many debating teams that won recogni¬ tion throughout the state. Under her guidance, many projects for school improve¬ ment were completed. In the community, Mrs. Hall was an active member of Moore ' s Chapel A. M. E. Zion Church, of the Interracial Council, the National Woman ' s Council, the Eastern Star, the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority. She was also a leader of the Girl Scouts. Mrs. Hall was a stimulating personality, that radiated energy and ambition. She seemed to have had a divinity of purpose and as Emerson says: “To help the young soul to add energy, inspire hope, and blow the coals into a useful flame; to redeem defeat by new thought and firm action, this though not easy, is the work of divine men.

Our Principa S. O. Jones, Principal PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE TO SENIORS Congratulations for the successful completion of the tremendous task of pub¬ lishing this annual. You have shown the value of concerted effort and class spirit. Without the foresight, courage, careful planning and tenacity on the part of your class leaders and sponsors, the reality of this annual would not have come to pass. May you look forward to many happy years which will be based on the solid foundation laid while here at Price High School. And, as you leave the portals of this school building, may you ever exemplify the kind of spirit which you have so nobly advanced in the preparation of this annual.
