Between its covers you will find a record of school life from September l, l955, to May 24, T956-events and people that will never be forgotten. May this book serve as a guide down Memory Lane in future years! In our efforts to produce this annual we would have been lost without the guidance of Mrs. Annie See Sparks and Mrs. Ruth McCain. They were with us every step of the way-explaining, encouraging, advising, guiding and helping us in the presentation of your annual. To the advertisers, whose financial backing has been invaluable, we are deeply indebted. They boosted our annual! Let us show our appreciation by patronizing them! Last but not least, photographers, you were superb! It is your pictures that have made this annual come to life! May each CHSter treasure this story of the 1955-56 school year, and may each of you hold fast to his hopes and dreams!

The Phantom Tiger, three-act mystery- comedy by Robert St. Clair, was presented by the Senior Class under the direction of Mrs. Merle Walker on April 19 and 20, on the Elizabeth Dorr stage. Special eftectserrain, lightning, thunder, tiger growls, the flight of a bat, the lighting up of the eyes of a painting, and the howling of dogs-contributed much to the success of the play, whose plot centers around a ievveled collar supposedly stolen from the neck of a sacred tiger. ni 'f' r f ,fig , .W xtlilfl f! 1 zl- my M . -S , ,of fa :JF ,i fe , to r. r A050 I fill I I XX Rig,-Q ,jj .fi 'ffifea itt is X, f 1 ' v l l l Get going!
