VIRGINIA HIGH SCHOOL LITERARY AND ATHLETIC LEAGUE Box 1487, Charlottesville, Virginia COMMENTS ON THE 1945 PUBLICATIONS CONTEST Annuals Group 4s The Axtonian . Axton High School - Your yearbook is an excellent one and clearly deserves the award for annuals in Group 4. From your financial statement I gather that your budget was larger than that of any other staff in competition with you, but you won your position not because you spent more money on your publication but because you used the funds at your disposal so wisely There is no question about the fact that your book presents a rounded, interesting picture of school life at Axton High School dur- ing 1944-45. You include, in addition to a pictorial record of your members, such items as the commencement program, the play cast, a cal- endar of the year ' s events, activity club write-ups, a well written class history, and thumbnail verse sketches of your seniors. The organization of your annual is worthy of especial com- mendation. The page layouts are attractive to the eye and saving of paper. Your group pictures are all carefully arranged and the students identified. Your snapshots are interesting, neatly arranged, and each individual identified, although the photography is not always consis- tently good. You include a convenient table of contents. You cover comprehensively the war activities of both your alumni and students. In brief you have created a yearbook of which you may be justly proud. Judge: C. William Miller Instructor of English University of Virginia

Amid the shrubs thy halls are set, Wherein we ponder hard, and yet The best of everything we get, At Axton High, our Axton High!’’ Published by the Seniors of AXTON HIGH SCHOOL Axton, Virginia Page One
