has probably never occurred to most people that Athens High School, in actuality, is a community in itself, patterned after the town of Athens. In the school, there are various organizations, clubs, and the like, corresponding to similar groups of the town. Inasmuch as we high school students are proud to be a part of the town of Athens and that we shall soon be citizens of it, we considered it very appropiate that the theme of this year’s Athenian should be “Our Town.” To the class of '49, the year’s annual will undoubtedly be the most treasured keepsake of our high school days. In the years to come, it will recall to us the happy and active times we enjoyed together as a group and will further endear our Alma Mater, A. H. S., to us. 4

Van Scoten has always been active in both school and public affairs in Athens. A former student and graduate of Athens High School, he participated in football and basketball where he was a leader among his classmates. After graduating from college and teaching in Center and Columbia counties, he returned to his Alma Mater in 1934 where he established agriculture as a major course. He has also conducted agricultural and grange meetings for the benefit of rural people. His popularity is shown by his being elected President of the Teachers Association and by the admiration of his “Ag” students. Always interested in sports, he once served as assistant football coach and is coach of the F. F. A. basketball team. So to you, Mr. Van Scoten, we dedicate the 1949 Athenian with our utmost appreciation and with the sincere wish that your future years of instruction will be as profitable for the students as the years you spent with us have been.
