Nyfyijijf f fM ' mgggigfiff iffy Wg? M' 'QW W Foreword . . . These pages will be turned under countless circumstances and will produce varied reactions. Soon the 1958-1959 school year will be relived as the pages of this book are turned from fall to winter, to spring, and finally to summer. It is our objective to capture B.H.S. in this book. To do so we have called on the seasons for help, for the seasons bring changes and affect many moods. By following them we can follow the moods of the school and of its students who make it live. Maybe something between the covers of this book will bring to mind a thrill, a disappointment, a monient of joy, a moment of sadness. Who can say? This book may have a different message for each person who opens it. We can hope, however, and we do hope that it will mean pleasant memories for all who are a part of the school. May these memories serve as a foundation of knowledge, hope, faith, and trust, for these are the tools with which futures are built . . . futures of happiness and service. The world needs you, and you need all your memories. David Cain ' and Judy Bla ck Editors-in-Chief and EAGLE Staff 2

The 1958-59 Eagle ls Dedicated l To You, The Students - The Life, The Breath, And The Spirit Of BHS. Laughter rings through the halls, and there is the sound of lockers slamming. Lights are on in the gym, and the cheering of the crowd drowns out the sound of players racing across the floor. All is dark in the auditorium save for the brightly lighted stage where a picture of one of life's phases is being drawn. Books are opened and closed as bells on the hour start and stop the sound of flying typewriters, and singing voices are overshadowed only by the orchestra tuning up. All of these things are happening week after week, year after year, at BHS. The school, however, would live no longer if it were not for the students. If there were no one to open a locker, play a game or a part, read a book, hit a typewriter key, sing a song, or strike a note on a piano, there would be no BHS. The building would remain, but it would be empty, dark, and forlorn-a hollow shell with no life in itself and no breath of its own. BHS through the years has offered many experi- ences to look back upon and to remember. Remember- ing BHS, however, we will recall not the building, but our friends-those with whom we have shared our thoughts and our dreams. The BHS we know is made of the boys and girls we know. As long as there are students, there will be a BHS stronger and prouder than the bricks of which the material structure is made. There will be a BHS with a spirit-the everlasting spirit of youth with its hope and faith. The 1959 EAGLE is, therefore, dedicated to you, the students-the life, the breath, and the spirit of BHS.
