Class Will We, the Senior Class of Big Island High School, being of sound mind and having natural intelligence do make this our last will and testament. To Mr. Lee, our beloved principal, we express our appreciation for helping guide us through our last year in school, we know that he will continue to give guidance to the other students as he did to us. To Mr. Oglesby, we leave our Government books, and ten cases of green peas because he loves them so well. We also hope he will inherit a championship basketball team. To Mr. Emerson, we leave a more co-operative Mechanical Draw- ing Class, and a better equipped shop. To Mrs. Parks, we leave a better basketball team in the future, and a more talented Art Class. To Miss Owen, we leave a better equipped Home Ec . Department, and a peppy Cheerleading Squad. To Mrs. Glass, we leave our typing books, and an outstanding Tel- letorium Staff. To Mrs. Oliver, our beloved Senior Class Sponsor, we leave many happy memories of our last year in school. We hope that next year ' s annual will be out on time. To Miss Harris, we leave our deep appreciation for starting us out right in our Freshman year. We, the Senior Class, wish to thank the entire faculty for their faith, guidance, and helping us through our years of school. To the Junior Class, we leave the happy thought of becoming first in the lunch line, and the sad thought of Detention Hall for another year. To the Sophomore Class, we leave the thought of becoming Juniors, and getting their class rings. To the Freshman Class, we leave our ways of getting along withthe teachers .

We are finally Seniors, and in June there will be a graduation. No one knows the joy we ' ve shared We are lost in admiration. We are deeply in debt to our teachers Our principal was a great help, We had to study very hard, But we learned step by step. No one can tell our future, But no matter what we do, We will always remember Big Island, And hope Big Island remembers us too. This has been a long hard fight. But we enjoyed it just the same, Good-by Big Island High, We will always cherish your name. C las s Poet Wayne D. Wilson
