BRYAN ADAMS Our school proudly bears The name of Bryan Adams, SecreTary-Business Manager of The Dallas Public Schools from I943 unTil his unTimeIy deaTh in I955. On The occasion of The dedicaTion of Bryan Adams High School lasT November, SuperinTendenT W. T. WhiTe paid The follow- ing informal yeT eloquenT TribuTe To our namesake. DR. WHITE'S EULOGY I have The pleasanT opporTuniTy To say a word abouT Bryan Adams. lT's difficulT be- cause iT isn'T easy To know which one To choose. ThroughouT a long period of Time fwhich now seems shorTI as we worked TogeTher, Mr. Adams was righT in The middle of The planning, The execu- Tion, and The adminisTraTion of The Dallas Public School sysTem. BuT ThaT wasn'T The Thing we valued him mosT for, Though The Type of service ThaT he gave was unexcelled. We valued Bryan mosT because he was Bryan. I never did hear anybody excepT someone who didn'T know him very well, or someone who was referring To him in a formal siTua- Tion, call him Mr. Adams. He deserved The TiTle all righT, buT we admired him and enioyed him so much ThaT iT was always Bryan. If There was some iob To be done ThaT required TacT and good iudg- menT, iT usually ended up wiTh, well, leT Bryan do ThaT. I never saw Bryan Adams when he wasn'T opTimisTic. I don'T Think ThaT I ever saw him when he wasn'T happy. And his influence in The school sysTem was reflecTed and is reflecTed now in a Thousand ways ThaT he would never have imagined. Even To The end of his days he never did admiT ThaT he was very sick. He was The mosT courageous, mosT admirable, The mosT lovable man I iusT abouT ever knew, so ThaT when The naming of This school came up, The Board of EducaTion sponTaneously ThoughT of The name Bryan Adams. And Those of us who conTinue here shall Treasure as long as we live our associaTion wiTh and memories of Bryan. We are loT beTTer folks because we had him for our friend . . . Mr. Thompson, no finer man ever lived and no one deserved more To have his memory esTablished in perpeTuiTy in a school building Than Bryan Adams.
