A Director of Musicians and School Destiny Mr. Eugene L. Seastrand W ith devoted sincerity and respectful pride, we, the staff members of the 1964 BUFFALO, affectionately dedicate our yearbook to you, Mr. Seastrand. The year of your arrival at Milby, 1937, was a new dawning in the life of our school. The Easter sunrise 'services at Hermann Park from 1947 to 1952, the 1951 Texas State Teachers Association Convention in our city, the Houston Tree of Light ceremonies in 1960 and 1962, are but a few of the many memorable functions in which choral groups, drill teams, bands, and orchestras under your direction have engaged. The individuals to whom you have imparted unsparingly wisdom, self-assurance, and guidance for twenty-seven years . . . the innumerable ses- sions of patient instruction with your student mu- sicians . . . and the treasured words and melodies of Let's Go, Milby, Booster Song, Charlie Buffalo, and Fair Milby, are eternal testimoni- als to your artful efficiency and the unceasing faith you so long have held in Milby High School. Your select capabilities, your lustrous resolve, and your cordial nature have caused our school's name to shine with a radiance that can never dim. 10

Age of Turmoil But just considor, as an adult, if you were sud- denly put back into your adolescence. You'd sud- denly have to decide all over again whether to marry or not, and then who to marry. And the problem is complicated by the fact that apparently nobody you like, likes you. Then imagine on top of this, while you are in this awful quandary, you have to decide whether you are going to be a doctor, an actor, a salesman, an engineer, or an aviator. And you have to make both of these decisions at the same time. And you have to make them at the time of life when you are least compe- tent to make any decision, when you have no ex- perience, and worse still, no money. When you're in a terrible emotional turmoil, when you've just gone through a very serious physical change. I noticed when my boys wore growing that they just lay on the bed day after day. But their clothes didn't fit them day after day. Man changes more than most any other animal until you get back to a frog. If you were an adult and you had a period of four or five years when you changed that much physically, you'd go to a rest home, you'd be understood, you'd retire. But this is the very moment when society makes its heaviest de- mands . . . the very time when the body is making its demands and the emotions are making their demands, and society is making its demands. To top all this, you have to pass an exam in French irregu lar verbs and your mother is hysterical because you're not carrying out the garbage.
