CLASS HISTORY Ladies and gentlemen, members of the school board, faculty, members of the class, fellow students, parents and friends. Commencement really means the beginning, but for us it is the end, at least the end of our life in Buffalo High School. In some ways we are glad in some, sorry, but others will tell you about that. My job is to give you an accurate, unbiased history of the class from the time we entered school until the moment we receive our diplo- mas. Three of the members of this class, Patricia Fairbanks, Floyd Biehl, and Victor Askins, started to school together, and have been together all these years. There were two others, Dell Crabtree and Leona Wilber, both of whom moved away from Buffalo in later years. There was no change when we were in the second grade, but in the third we lost Dell. In the fourth grade we suffered no change, but Dennis Kennedy joined us at the beginning of our fifth year. Our seventh year we saw a new face which belonged to Robert Goodman and David Talkington joined us for the eighth grade. When we entered high school Dennis and Ralph Best joined us to make a total of seven freshmen who suffered dearly during initiation. The same seven stayed together during our sophomore year. When we were juniors we found that we had lost Dennis Kennedy, Ralph Best, and Leona Wilber, but Lorin Wilhelms had come from Moore and Donald McKinlay were there to take their places. At the mid-point of that year Don McKinlay and Dennis Best decided they couldn’t take any more and quit. We were surprised to see that Don McKinlay had decided to indulge in an- other year of torture when we came back for our Senior and final year. Pat Driskell was also there to increase the number of our class. May classes yet to come benefit from our accomplishments, and may Buffalo High School live long to help the young people of this community prepare for usefulness in the world outside the walls of school. RESPONSE Dear Senior Class, we, the underclassmen of Buffalo High School, accept with honor the responsibilities you are handing down to us. We will long cherish the honor of the school and its colors of Blue and White. The banner has waved gallantly over the members of this Senior Class. May the Blue of loyalty in- spire us, as it did you, to support this school in all its endeavors. May the White, the sign of integrity, guide our every move to the honor of all that this institution stands for. In accepting the colors from the class of 1959 we feel that we are entrusted with a major responsibility. We’ll miss the good-natured rivalry, the friendship and companionship with the splendid personalities in the outgoing Senior group. We look forward to another year in Buffalo High humbly and hopefully with a pledge to keep the colors, the Blue and White, undimmed, our outlook clear and our purpose high, through the years we’ll follow the gleam handed down by the class of 1959.
