To decide upon a dedicatee is a task that calls for nominations, eliminations, and a final judicious choice. This is never an easy task, for there are so many personalities that must be considered, so many arguments to be heard, so many considerations to be weighed. Here, at Huntington, our class has nominated, eliminated, consid- ered, chosen. We have selected one of our English teachers — one who served as homeroom teacher for one of our sections for four years — one who serves as publicity director for Huntington — one who works willingly, conscientiously, de- votedly. Above all, we have chosen ONE WHOM WE LOVE. The Class of 1959 dedicates its HUNTINGTONIAN to DOROTHY M. THOMAS

p In April, 1958, the gates to the WORLD'S FAIR at BRUSSELS swung open for the first time. Inside, all the nations of the world competed for honors, for respect, for favor, for approval. Throughout the days and months that followed, millions of people from all points of the globe visited this international exposi- tion. Many went to the FAIR in an effort to learn of the doings of other countries; more went, perhaps, because “going to the FAIR” was “the thing to do” for that season; still others went for sheer fun and pleasure; but most of all, we believe, the BRUSSELS FAIR represented to the world population a chal- lenge, a once-in-a-lifetime treat. Now, it is spring of 1959. The BRUSSELS FAIR is over. The crowds have disappeared; the buildings are being disassembled; the glamour and the glow have gone. We, at Huntington, avidly read of and watched the doings of the FAIR. Vicariously, we attended — via our studies, our activities, our or- ganizations. Just as the patrons at Brussels so did we. We invite you through the pages of our yearbook to COME TO THE FAIR. TABLE OF CONTENTS Roreword re Dedication и ee: Principals Message 1... Administration and Faculty .....
