HARRIS FRED TRAVIS a3 RAYMOND CRITTENDEN WALTER KANE DAVID BATTLE Dedication To the members of our Coaching Staff who have labored so diligently and have been so successful, we, the members of the 1956 Graduating Class, sincerely and lovingly dedicate this edition of the Huntingtonian. 3 During the years of 1955 they directed our Vikings to an unprecedented record in sports-the annexation of four state championships-basketball, baseball, football, and track and thus far in 1956, the acquisition of two state titles-basketball and football. Not only have they brought honor and glory in the field of sports to our school, but they have helped by both precept and example to instil in us those qualities of wholesome living and good sportsmanship which areso essential for success in the school, community, and nation. For their brilliant leadership and their strict adherence to fair play and justice, we are grateful. a7 ,- .1 ,A. ' VA-v---w---w wwr. Fr,- I O IHlStrathn I m .d A Board of School Trustees 5+ DR.

E. M. GREEN A.B., Knoxville College M.A., Hampton Institute V o .n' 10 Principal's Message My young friends, I am indeed happy for the honor of extending you greetings on your graduation day. Making the adjustments de- manded by secondary school graduation is an accomplishment in which you might justly take considerable pride. I am proud of any small role I may have played in bringing these exercises to pass. 7 You are neither embarking upon life for the first time nor are you beginning, or ending edu- cation. This is but another stage in your de- velopment-a period of greater freedom and re- Sponsibility. You stand today heirs of the past and our hope for the future. The accumulated wisdom of the ages is yours. Whatever errors have attended man,s efforts in the past are yours to correct, and whatever the formula for peace is yours to fashion. Your world is characterized by strife, fear and uncertainty. Conflicting ideologies mediat- ing between the peoples of the world and manls apparent ability to resolve them continue to be a very costly affair. Young men are presently giving their lives in the defense of principles they cannot adequately define. You can appre- ciate these conditions when you remember that some of your schoolmates have died on the battle fields of Korea. The dynamics of ouf social order predispose the ever-present prophet of doom to lament the chaotic conditions of our times . . . yet there can always be found some resolute men of faith, character, and industry and it is through such as these that the path of progress is kept forever pointed upward. The brief span of your life has been sub- jected to the impact of wars. This fact undoubt- edly has influenced your outlook on life. When -4 -wj-wcnrv1 .7s .v .1- ,'-- v-, -v7,v---sv-. - your elders speak of peace times'i they employ a language you do not understand. It is your task to understand the meaning of world peace and work for its realization. A Way of life de- signed to promote the greatest happiness to all the peoples of the world must be a constant cone cern of yours. You are an integral part of the social order and as such it is your obligation to foster the general good. Cast your lot in the vanguard of those ever vigilant to safeguard the principles of democracy. The future is yoursl The outlook is bright! Let not the ipresence of problems dampen your enthusiasm. The material and spiritual coilers of the worldare open to those who will pay the price for them. Set up for yourselves some worthy goal and strive unceas- ingly for its realization. ReHect in your behavior What you know and accept the principles of moral conduct. These will enable you to rise above obstacles that doom the weak to despair. Those who have shared the responsibility of directing your development here have tried to instruct you, by precept and example, in the democratic way of life. You have been taught the meaning of freedom; the values derived from according others their just deserts have been explained to you; you have shared in formulating regulatiOns to which you have been expected to conform. It is our hope that you will be guided by these ideals in your future relationships with all men. Finally, it is our desire that you keep your connections strong with your high school. ' Those of us whom you leave here to help others will always 'be interested to follow your progress and lend whatever assistance we can in the further- ance of any worthwhile objective you may seek.

Class Poem For parting hour coming near, For love we'll never forget, For all the joy that through the year Is lingering with us yet, For every lesson and each test, For days of preparation, We thank our God, those love will bless Our day of Graduation. Others fell along the way Perhaps their courage died But we who labored day by day Approached the other side. Though some have had to suffer And some have been delayed Our burdens would be tougher Had we not bowed down and prayed. Whenever the toils dismayed us Our teachers, with a smile, Would urgingly persuade us To go the other mile; So those who once were tired Must thank our faculty, Who with their love inspired Our march to victory. For all that they have taught us, For all that made us proud, For all the joy they brought us, For hope that they endowed, For teachings that implore us To seek the harder chore, For knowledge laid before us, We leave our thanks and more. For when the voice of duty calls The willing and the strong, When the tasla of liberty falls Upon the nationis throng, When needs for action multiply The ones the nation picks To see that freedom will not die Will be the class of fifty-six. The class whose noble hearts have been Unfailing in the fight The class whose hopeful eyes have seen Achievement by its might, The class whose glory will not wane Whose courage will not die, The class that will uphold the name 0f Victorious Huntington High.
