We will remember our classrooms with their armchairs, blackboards, colorful bulletin boards, and the interesting pictures given to us by the alumni. Here we learned to study and to get along with our classmates. . .We will never forget the crowded halls and all the fun we had getting to our lockers in the cubby holen during our senior year. . .We will recall quiet hours of reading in the library, and the large study hall where we struggled with our assignments. .. And who will ever forget the clatter of typewriters, the sounds of the machine shop, the voices of the choir, the tune-up. notes of the band and orchestra, the strange odors from the chemistry lab, the fragrance of the home economics department, and the stir of small living things in the biology room?. . .We will remember the auditorium, too, for it was there that we saw the curtain go up on our school plays, went to assemblies, and finally, from its stage, we graduated. . .The gym- nasium is another unforgettable place, with our physical education classes, intramurals, pep sessions, and basket- ball games. In our more romantic moods we dimmed the lights and danced in it. . . Yes, our school gave us a place to do all the things we needed to do while we were growing up. Then. this year, we outgrew it. Future classes will have a new building to remember, but it can hold no finer memories for them than our school does for us.

To Walter Robrock fExcellent teacher, true friendj Now you know the secrets you spent a life to leam, How the plants are growing, what makes a Hrefly burn. There is much to ponder, a great unknown to dare, You have left a torchlight, one we would guard with care. Warmth of humble justice and truth can not be stilled, Your beloved position can never be refilled. Colleagues, friends, and loved ones acclaim your honored place, We are better people for having known your grace. We can hear you singing our Alma Mater song, We can see you winging in aircraft proud and strong. Now you hold the secrets we search on to know, How the plants are living, what makes a Firefly glow. Dorotha Bradford I n r WALTER ROBROCK A.B.g M.A. john M. Davidson, M. Photog N ME ORIAM We, the class of 1957, dedicate this annual to Walter Robrock, who was both a teacher and a friend to us. Mr. Robrock taught in Bryan for thirty-three years and dur- ing that time he taught approximately five thousand students. He was very much interested in science, photography, literature, mu- sic, and aeronautics. Through these fields he touched the hearts of many people. All of the students who have been on the annual staffs since 1936 will never forget Mr. Robrock's lasting patience and assist- ance, as he advised the production of twenty oine year books. We will never forget Mr. Robrock and all of his many kind and generous deeds that he would never take credit for. This ded- ication is our way of expressing our admiration and affection for the late Mr. Robrock. 6
