THE 1932 GRADUATING CLASS, reprinted in commemoration of Iheir 20th Anniversary The 1952 BLUE RIDGIAN has had many school annuals to come before it at Blue Ridge. This is the first annual the school has had in about twenty-five years. We hope that it will not be such a span between this and the next such book. The last annual that can be remembered is the 1926 GADAWHEE. The name being an Indian one can be translated to mean Land of the Sky. Among the boys who worked on it then are Mayne Albright, H. H. Eden and Milton Brice. We hope that the 1952 BLUE RIDGIAN measures up to the high standards that these men set with our predecessor. Page Tzventy-Eight
