Our Crowd Here in Bartow High School the feelings be- tween student and student are close-knit and enduring. With our classmates we have shared work and play, hopes and dreams. Some of us have known each other from earliest school days, others only in these high school years; but, in every case, this friendship, has become a real part of our lives. In our classrooms we have had the opportun- ity to wonder and to question and to broaden our ideas through class discussion. In the future many will be together only in the pages of this book, but through this brief remembrance we will be able to recapture the true meaning of education and our way of life. During these school years we the students have been the crowd,” doing things together, a mixture of different people, bus students, city students, learning and playing together. As this school year ends and we go out into the world, to college, into the armed forces, or to take a job, our experiences together will have enriched our adult lives. And Now, May We Present First The Youngsters of Our Crowd - The Sophomores
