Blair Preston ancl The King Printing Company; Our engraver, The Lynchburg Engraving Company; Our photographer, Mr. Warren Willard; Our sponsors. Miss Etta Hillman and Miss Sue Hundley; Mr. Herbert Riordon, who made the bas-relief photograph of the school in the opening section; and The businesses of Bristol, whose contributions made this book possible.

Each victory of the Bearcats in this great year took them a step closer to the City, District, and Regional Championships. Behind every winning team there is a coaching staff gifted at putting spirit, teamwork, con- fidence and drive into a number of individuals, moulding them into the winning team they are. The Bearcats were no exception; they possessed such a coaching staff. To our championship team and to the staff who coached them to victory, we sincerely dedi- cate this 1949 Virginian. Coaches Hugh David, Louis Kovacs, Homer “Tigf.” Harris, Bill Powers
