'Dedication At our first introduction, school at once became interesting. Some were at that age when they were ready to quit and seek new and exciting adventures. But with her help they continued to struggle through the few remaining years. Her smile seemed to drive away the clouds on a rainy day. We suddenly forgot our troubles and everything became brighter. As our teacher for four years, she has come to understand us and we have grown to love her. To us, she is more than a teacher; she is a friend-one to whom we can tell our troubles and receive sympathy and solutions to our problems. We, the Seniors of '52 dedicate this, our annual, to Mrs. Anne Salter, our teacher, counsellor, and friend.

Principal’s Message I recall the year 19k2 when this class of '32 came aboard the good ship Beaufort High and took its place with the other crew members for a twelve year voyage that took us into many ports. I recall, too, that the old ship was wrecl by fire February the fifth, nineteen forty-five and that it became necessary for us to be divided into groups and to be stationed at various points in the vicinity. Then the good people of this fine community decided to build us a bigger and better ship in order that we could continue our voyage. Many storms have crossed our course during this voyage, but you have stood them well. Your loyalty, co-operation and determination have been most helpful in this, your last voyage on this ship. I trust that you will re-enlist, will be assigned to a larger ship, will continue your voyage into the unchartered waters and will be able to say that the world has been made a little better by your Having lived in it. When you have liberty you will be welcome to visit the old ship and point with pride to your new shipmates that your apprenticeship was on the good ship Beaufort High.
