-5,551 We . ' I ' SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Eleven years ago we set out, a gallant band of crusaders, to seek the Grail of Education. At first we were forced to meet many obligations and a number of our weak knights found the trail much too rough and fell by the wayside. A greater portion of the band turned their faces to the shining light of the Castle of Graduation and drove bravely ahead. Along the straight and narrow way we turned many times to Castles of English, Foreign Language, History, Algebra, Chemistry, and Geometry to get the knowledge to aid us on the trails that lay before us. Through the years we have met many Barons, Lords, and Ladies among whom are Sir Sisk, Sir Hall, Sir Neal, and all the Ladies of the Court. We salute these for their patience in guiding us through the years and keeping us on the right trail. When we joined the Crusade, we were green, uninformed, grammar grade Pages, but by taking the advice of the older Knights and Lords We were promoted, after five years of hard work, to a higher rank known as the Knight- hood of Junior High. For two years we had to remain in this rank, after which we were knighted in turn as Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior Knights. After climbing through these respective ranks of recognition, we reached the highest possible rank, that of Senior Knighthood. During the four years as Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors many of the stronger knights have participated in tournaments of football, basketball, and baseball, in which valuable trophies were won. Other ambitious Knights took part in feats of dramatics, debating and other outstanding events. which they have found helpful and interesting. Now that we have reached the castle that bestows upon us the recognition of Senior Knighthood, and graduation is just beyond the next rise, we look back over the winding trail we have traveled. To the younger Knights who have accompanied us through most of the years we will soon say good-bye and leave the future Crusades in your hands. Now we are looking forward to the Junior-Senior Banquet which is an annual event among the high ranking Knights of Belmont 'Highx but most of all we look forward to the night when we come before the Court of Recognition to receive our Scroll which signifies eleven years of faithful service in the Knight- hood of Belmont, Schools.
