TO THE CITIZENS OF ABINGDON AREA to0 ' All 33 Everywhere today there is a growing demand for high performance. For the worker to do more in fewer hours ... for the student to learn more to become eligible for college ... for educators to continue their studies for master degrees and doctorates. Achievements accomplished through this demand have made new hori- zons in living with a new concept of standards and leisure. To meet and gracefully accept these new standards, a student in Abingdon High School becomes keenly aware that he is being groomed for this important art of living. Broader subjects, keener minds to teach them a revolutionary concept of co-curricular activities in- cluding community living, is preparing each student to take his place and contribute without doubt or bewilder- ments. Abingdon district, the town of Abingdon, and the high school are combining efforts to make sure that future citizens of this and surrounding communities will work and play well together and that, from all walks, people will excel and enjoy the art- -of living. MAKING IMPORTANT DECISIONS . . . School board members; SEATED: May Jo Craig, clerk; E. B. Stanley, Supt. of Schools, J. T, Hayter, STAND- ING: George Grant, Jr., James T.

CONTENTS Here is a story of people . . . SENIORS, the honored group of 1961 and the FACULTY who taught them so well. CLASSROOM WORK and ACADEMIC EVENTS are the environment in which these people grew. FOOTBALL HOMECOMING is a part of that growth . . . the crowds, the queens, the losses and the victories. To replace the graduates are bulging CLASSES of 8th graders. Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors. These, then, are Abingdonians . . . working together in an atmosphere of education, sports and modern living. A big part of modern living is COMMUNITY COMMERCE . . . doing a fine job of sup- plying our needs with goods and services. 4
