FOREWORD As students of Blackstone High School we have had an opportunity to become good Virginians, good Americans, and good Christians. Our classes and teachers have constantly reminded us of the great privileges of freedom. Our characters have been molded through the great bonds of friendship. We have sensed the trials and tribulations, the joys and exultations of reality. We have learned to base all of our dreams on two great God-given gifts--faith and hope. In the following pages we present to you some of the memories which have built our visions of the future. The Vision that you glorify in your mind, the Ideal that you enthrone in your heart--this you will build your life by, this you will become.

Z0O-—-34F0-O0MmO Mrs. Hamlett displays warm friendship to everyone.° Several years ago, the elementary grades relinquished one of their best-loved teachers to the ever-growing demands of the high school. This newcomer quickly attained a prominent position in B.H.S.'s English and history depart- ments where she immediately gained the respect of each of her students as well as that of the faculty. Before long, the harassing task of sponsor of the senior class was passed on to her. Through the years she has displayed great loyalty and devotion to her graduating seniors. Three years ago, she added to her long list of titles that of 'director'’ when she undertook the tedious job of directing the seniors in their annual production. Throughout the schoo] and community, it is mutual feeling that she has outdone herself in working with the casts of such memorable plays as THE MOUSETRAP, THE MATCHMAKER, and THE PEN IS DEAD- LIER. It is with a great deal of pride that we, the 1963 IVY Staff, have selected this issue of the IVY to be published in dedication to Mrs. Kath- leen Snow Hamlett.
