Would we ever attain that pinnacle of poise and distinction? Has the beginning class of ' 51 looked upon us with the same thought? If so, we hope by this brief history to show them that we are worthy of their esteem While not organized for the first three years, mem- bers of the class distinguished themselves in athletics, dramatics, and scholastics. After a heated campaign, we elected our capable officers to serve us during the last year of our high school career. The Gothic Staff was chosen, and its mem- bers worked throughout the year to present this book to you . . . The Stardust Promenade was successfully given for the departing class of ' 46. As we danced un- der the twinkling stars, all pronounced it a ne ' er to be forgotten event . . . The first dramatic production, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay, was a three act comedy which was well received by the audience. Beyond the Horizon, our second play was of a more serious nature. Both these plays netted good results in experience and finance .... The final thrill came with the closing week. At last we were qualified to wear the cap and gown. With this cloak of dignity we went through the ceremonies of Class Day. At the Baccalaureate we heard our farewell sermon. Commencement night at last ' — ■ a time to which we had looked forward with mingled feelings of expectancy and dread. Now as graduates of B. H. S. we go out into the future with these years to help in guiding our destiny.
