Tomorrow we sai I We know not quite where — To some foreign port In the country of care. Vast are the seas of memory Our bark has crossed thus far Anchoring in the harbor of pleasure As we charted our course by a star. Ship, ahoy, for achievement! We'll soon hear at dawn Then, fearless of pitfalls, We'l I sai I on and on. Your praises we sing Though our hearts are quite blue These hearts ever loyal Remaining with you, —Old Beaufort High.

CLASS HISTOfiy Four short years ago seventy-nine of us young, carefree, and inexperienced boys and girls entered Beaufort High School. How we rambled from class to class al- ways getting in the wrong place and how the upper classmen played prank after prank on us will always be remembered. However after getting accustomed to the high school routine, we settled down and chose Billy Downum as our leader. Under his leadership we soon became active in extra-curricular activities. But as all good (?) things, the yearwas soon ended and we gloomily (?) left for a few months of vacation. After three months of much needed rest, we were eager to start our year as Lordly Sophs. Our first week was spent trying to show those oh-so-young-and- silly freshmen just how lordly we were. We soon tired of this, luckily for us, and buckieddown to work. Here we began to excel in sports, glee club, and other activities. We even gave the seniors a hayride. A! I this was done under the leader- ship of our own Juncy Piver. Our Junior year, filled with the happy and memorable events that always make one feel important, was the most exciting of all. We gave the seniors an Under- water Scene Banquet which was a huge success. Finally our big moment arrived. We had reached the goal of which we had dreamed. We were nothing less than High and Mighty Seniors. We set examples for the lower classmen, reaped the benefits of Senior privileges, and were given the responsibility of editing the annual. And now our work here is nearly through. Here we have learned English, Math, French, and many other subjects -but that is not all. We have formed lasting friendships, developed our characters, and performed faithful ly each task that has been assigned to us. Now we must follow that well-worn path out into life and seek our destination. What ever we accomplish we feel we owe to the excellent guidance of our dear Alma Mater. l A
