Seutors Prepare for Graduattou Close to 240 seniors of the class of 1961 received their di- plomas in an impressive outdoor ceremony in June. Upon their arrival five years ago the class had 410 members. As juniors they elected Clarence Grant, president; Sandra Russell, vice president; Joyce Bowser, secretary; Sampson Robinson, treasurer; and Catherine Brooks, chaplain. Lillian Jones was runner-up for Miss Homecoming. A look at their five years at Huntington High School during the weeks before graduation brought many memories of tri- umphs, joys, and shared experiences, as well as some sadness at the thought that carefree high school days were over. Ralph Christian and Verdell Williams can hardly believe the big day has arrived. Another big thrill occurs on the day class rings arrive. Mr. Calloway, class sponsor, checks Jeannette Hamlin's finger for size. Awaiting their turns are Leola Flemming, Mack Owens, Paul Owens, and Ellistine Jacobs.

Youth — What Docs It Mean? Life's most precious gift is the period of youth. The world would be a dull, monotonous, and dreary place if there were no young people to spark the imagination and fancy of the adults. --- Margery Browne, '61 To make the world a better place in which to live is the challenge of today's youth. Opportunities are abundant; and, if youth will take advantage of them, a better world will soon become a reality. ---Clarence Grant, '61 To me youth is the most important period of life. It is a phase of life in which one experiences happi- ness, laughter, and hope. It is a time to prepare for the future. ---Geraldine Carr, '61 The youth of today owe it to themselves and to fu- ture generations to guarantee strong foundations for tomorrow's world by participating actively in the en- deavors of today's world. ---Sandra Russell, '61 I once thought of youth as the beginning of fun, the learning of beautiful ideals, and the starting of a rich, full, dedicated life. Now I picture youth as the begin- ning of toil, worry, sweat, and tears. ---Alice Davis, '61 Youth's carefree state is by far the most precious gift it possesses. This gift will not be fully appreciated until the gleeful, unconcerned days of youth become filled with serious responsibilities. ---Esther Crayton, '61 Some of our youth dream of being rich and famous, and others dream of trivial and materialistic things. As far as I am concerned, I dream of a better America and of what I can do to make America a better coun- try. I will fight, suffer humiliation, and bear any cross to keep my country free and strong. ---Joanne Mills, '61 Today there is a constant growth of automation, dis- unity among and within nations, and declining reli- gious fervor and loyalty. The challenge of today's youth is to solve these problems without war and de- struction. ---Ulysses Shepherd, '61 Today's youth must prepare adequately for the future. They must develop sharp minds and maintain healthy bodies to enable them to meet the problems ahead. ' ---Alexander Gaines, '61 Youth is one of the stages of life through which each person goes. To insure the continuing circle of life, each stage must adequately fulfill its obligation to the other. Hence, adulthood has the responsibility to train youth, and youth has the responsibility to become ma- ture adults. ---Seward Hunter, '61 11
