Ce FOREWORD Every person who has ever attended Black- stone High School has left behind some kind of impression onthe school, onhis fellow students, andonhisteachers. Mostof these impressions have been good; however, a few have been bad. Good or bad, these impressions make up the traditions and spirit of our high school. In this volume of the IVY, the staff will try to compare these impressions to footprints. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow expressed our feelings soaptly intwoverses of his well known Psalm of Life. Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time; Footprints, that perhaps another, Sailing o'er life's solemn main, A torlorr and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again.

ZO- Arn -oOMmM”O Jubilant Rams carry Mr. Padgett off the field after winning the championship. In 1959, when the name of Blackstone High School could be found at the bottom of almost every list of sports standings in the district, B.H.S. was fortunate enough to gain a new faculty member and coach, Mr. Charles D. Padgett. Wasting no time, Mr. Padgett began a drive to build up the athletic department of B.H.S. and the school spirit. Through his efforts, both the student body andthe community began to come out and support B.H.S. in all school athletic events. The 1961 football team, which won the Group II, District III champion- ship, was a climax to his several years' work in athletics. In recognition of his influence as a coach, teacher, and friend, the 1962 IVY staff would like to dedicate this volume of the IVY to our own ''Coach , Mr. Charles D. Padgett.
