THE BLUE AND WHITE STAFF We, the Senior Class, take great pleasure in pre- senting this 1949 edition of THE BLUE AND WHITE. Some of the improvements over last year's annual are the funny page, the additional picture pages, and the individual pic- tures of the undergraduates. Expenses for the annual were paid by subscriptions and advertising. The staff greatly appreciates the cooperation which has been received from the student body, faculty, advertisers, and all others who have made this year's edition of THE BLUE AND WHITE a marked success. 5

Both the boys and girls in high school athletics have proven that more attention has paid dividends. Transportation facilities have been much improved over the past years. The two new forty -two passenger school buses have been obtained. This makes our transportation facilities one ofthe best in the state. The faculty this year may be considered one of the most cap- able of the past few years. The Board of Education's endeavors have proved worthwhile, Last, but not least, the student body is to be complimented. As a group their interest is keen, with a cooperative and progressive spirit.
