jjrzlvz czyoafs CYJQGQQSS To the Students and Faculty: I am most happy to have an opportunity to recognize our annual staff for the 1961 edition of the Black Cat. Congratulations to you for a job well done. This edition of the Black Cat will be cher- ished by every student and faculty member in years to come. It will serve as an excursion into the past, reminding you of many pleasant memories of yesterday. Yet-in reality it should serve to challenge, inspire, and sustain you in your conquest of tomorrow. Each section of your yearbook repre- sents a nucleus around which have been built the individual and group student experiences in your scholastic, social, and spiritual realm. Each page will give you greater confidence in yourself and in your ability to cope with life. It will help you to become more aware of the dangers that threaten our American way of life, our public schools, and all rights of a free people. Yes-our yearbook is one example of the ability of our American youth to create, plan, and carry out those plans objectively. Each time that you look at your yearbook, may it be a constant reminder that if American boys and girls are to continue to have the same privileges that you have enjoyed, we must ever be alert to the threats of Communism and other forces that seek to destroy the very principles on which our nation was founded. My sincere appreciation and thanks go to the sponsor and staff for the 1961 edition of the Black Cat Annual. R. H. Renfro, Principal MR. R. H. RENFRO High School Principal

MR. H. J. MCALLISTER Superintendent of Bay City Independent School District CS uperzkzfezz 0612103 ffvfofofress Dear Students: As you turn the pages of this Black Cat Annual in the future years, I hope you will recall many pleasant roads you traveled in the 1960-61 school year. To you who have been in Bay City High School for the past four years the roads have been long, but I am sure as you look back you will say they were happy and profitable roads. May the roads you pursue, either in the educational or vocational field, be happy and prosperous ones. As you travel your roads in future life, remember the saying: Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Remember also that faith without works is dead. And that he who asks, receives, and he who seeks, finds, and to him that knocks, the door is opened. So keep at it, until you find the instruction you need, you have made a fine beginning, do not stop, continue your education. Sincerely, H. J. McAllister
