mm r : ;?vS i’A ■ ; . ' V -v v-- r ’. DEDICATION The Chief for the school year 19S5- ' 56 has the unique distinction of a dual dedication to two members of our faculty—Mr. A. Woodrow Taylor, our principal, and Mr. Robert Brown, our band and chorus director;, Mr. Taylor during his term of office here has encouraged and pro¬ moted the growth and development of Ahoskie School and under bis wise and capable leadership our progress has been outstanding. We feel assured that under his guidance we shall continue to go forward with a program of expansion and ever-widening usefulness. Mr. Brown has shown himself to be a band leader of extraordinary ability, and the Ahoskie High School Band, thanks to his fine musicianship and his genius for organization, has attained an enviable reputation for its achievements among high school bands of North Carolina. To both these gentlemen in this, our dedication, we express our sincere thanks for difficult tasks superlatively well done.
