To our teachers who have loved and cherished us through our entire twelve years, who have overlooked our shortcom- ings and inconsiderate actions, and who now beam on us with pride as we finish our high school course; we, the Senior Class, dedicate with respect and affection, “THE TORCH” for nine- teen hundred and fifty.

C ontenU On September 12, 1949 two hundred and fifty little Yellowjackets buzzed into, out of, through, and around the CLINTON STATE VOCA- TIONAL TRAINING SCHOOL CAMPUS. Here they worked and played under the supervision of friendly TEACHERS. These teachers like the preceeding ones offered a helpful, and guiding hand to the unsteady little Yellowjackets as they shyly started on this adventure in living. These little Yellowjackets busied themselves with filling their CAL- ENDAR for the school year, often seeking advice from the Board of Direc- tors, Superintendent, Principal, and other teachers who make up the ADMINISTRATION. After the little Yellowjackets became adjusted to their surroundings, they began to mix and mingle with members of the different CLASSES. They gazed with respect upon the mighty SENIORS; smiled approvingly at the JUNIORS; gave a friendlly nod to the SOPHOMORES; and gave a warm welcome to the FRESHMEN. They became better acquainted with the curriculum of the campus by joining the numerous ORGANIZATIONS such as the Glee Club, Future Homemakers, Future Farmers, and Future Teachers of America. Though all plunged headlong into CLASS ROOM activities, some ambitious little Yellowjackets won for themselves special recognition through their ACHIEVEMENTS. These little Yellowjackets not only advanced in their education, but they learned to be loyal, not only to their school, but to their ardent sup- porters, the ADVERTISERS, as well. The climax of the year came on the last day of school with the arrival of the TORCH. The little Yellowjackets had all their friends to AUTO- GRAPH it, and lived happily ever after. Page 2
