To all who have striven to make it one unit that we would be proud to repre- sent our school. It has served the school and community loyally through the years. T he Band deserves praise for the extra hours willingly put in after school and at night, so that we could be proud of their top ratings and snappy appearance in pub- lic. The band has marched many, many mile s through the years --through mud, rain, cold, snow, and extremely hot Weath- er. We can truthfully say that many have marched until they dropped. This organi- zation has never wavered from its course through the many difficulties and times of readjustment to new instructors. Each time,through the co-operation ofthe mem- bers, the group has emerged successful. lb-N vs .IVV Slorcword The Annual Staff has mn these few pages trled to capture some parts of the work he play the sermousness and the gamety whmch have made our hxgh school days a magxc txme We hope that as you turn through the pages of the Ranger mn years to come mt wxll brrng the Joy of remxmscence to all who remember the Class of 1956 A We would lmke to thank all the m c r c hant s o r hex r co operatmon mn makmg thms annual ' posslble The assoclatmon we have had wrth them has been a real pleasure o our beloved teachers we say Thanks for your patxence vnth the staff and for your 4 ' x success T he Annual Staff 1 'Q J 70.1, Q 'Ah' '59 ff'-'11 f .z 4 'S 1 tv f 4 .AJ I ,7 E5 1 9 ' . if -355.
