foreword The Senior Class of Draper High School pub- lishes the 1952-53 edition of the Valley Echo in an effort to preserve for you and yours the pre- cious memories of your school days. Our school has been and is much more than the building and furnishings; it is also the people who pursue or guide learning. But it is even more- -it is the joys and sorrows, the fair weather and foul, the work and play, the spirit of fellow- ship and friendship which we have shared. Long after the physical structure of Draper High School has lost its identity in the elements, these other things that are our school will remain. Annual Staff SEATED: Jerome Clark, Business Manager; Jane Wood, Editor; Shirley Hodge, Assis- tant Editor; Bobby Quesenberry, Circulation Manager. STANDING: Norma O’Dell, Ty- pist; Gene Hubbard, Photograph Editor; William Duncan, Assistant Business Manager : Miss Poole, Sponsor. NOT PICTURED: Don Fariss and Agnes Taylor, Ad- Getters.

Newman.
