• • • • 'folewoli Deor Senior, It seems as if it were only yesterdoy that we first entered Bula, meek and subdued sophs. Yet, in reality, our three high school years hove passed and we ore now ready for graduation. Won't you reminisce with me awhile? Do you remember the owe we felt for the greot 29, the shy getting acquainted with new friends and teachers, the confusion of remembering which steps were up and which were down, and the good-natured teasing and pushing we were given by upperclassmen? Do you remember the enthusiastic support we gave our sophomore athletes and cheerleaders, and then the tight, proud feeling in our throats when we first saw the fellows in cur class mixing with the varsity? All too soon that first year at Bula passed and we became juniors. Do you remember the excitement of our first adult election, when we nominated, campaigned, and elected our class officers? Do you remember how more and more of us became prominent in high school activities and how proudly we applauded our classmates who produced the junior play? Do you remember how thrilled we were the day we heard our class rings were available and the pride with which we first wore them? Another year rolled by and we become the seniors. Now, it was the hoys with whom we grew up who become the varsity stars, our best friends who dominated the stage and musical hits, and the fellows and girls in our own neighborhoods who began to demonstrate their talents in homemoking, longuoges, mathematics, electric and machine shops, vocational commercial, and distributive education work. Starry-eyed, we attended the proms and parties which climaxed our last year of high school. This, Senior, is your memory book. For you, Juniors and Sophomores, it will serve as a reminder of past activities and will forecast what is to come. May it give you all many hours of happy reminiscing. five

?Tlembel Ttlelits Dedication MISS MARGARET HOWARD Perhaps you sow her as a teacher explaining the intricacies of literature and survey ... or you might hove encountered her at the refreshment stand at Bula field during a pigskin tussle, preparing those famed sloppy joes. Wherever it was, you soon came to acquire a feeling of respect and admiration for her. Her faculty status reads, “Miss Margaret Howard, teacher of English. Instructing AHS students in English with thoroughness and exactness, she has endeavored to nurture in them the seeds of appreciation for great authors and their works. Her graciousness and pleasant personality have olways been valued by students and faculty alike. Miss Howard received her degrees from Ohio Wesleyan university and the University of Pennsylvania. We shall always point to the 1950 DART Yearbook as a glowing tribute to a noble teacher who will continue to inspire classes in the true spirit of Ashtabula High School. four
