F ORE WORD I am a part of all that I have metg ' Yet all experience is an arch wherethrouglT K! I' Gleams that untravelled world whose margin fades K, if Forever and forever when I move , - Ulyssesf' ,I Alfred Lord Tennyson Since as early as 4000 B.C. the arch was used in the Tigris-Euphrates valley. Spread by the Roman civilization, it hasibecome an integral part of all archi- tecture. V ' i y Because so many victorious armies have marched beneath them, these architectural designs have some- times been called triumphal arches. It is appropriate therefore that Eastern High School should have an arch at its entrance to provide a triumphal passageway for the vast procession of students who will pass through its corridors into the many untraveled worldsof the future. It is appropriate, too, that our first annual should have as its theme a quotation from Tennyson' sg poem Ulysses, which has as its dominant words the line, All experience is an arch. I As Pleasant Grove, Haw River, and Mebane High Schools have combined to form a broader passageway to learning, we have constructed' a triumphal arch through which the horizons of many untraveled worlds of knowledge and communication beckon as we move. As we travel, the margins of many-new areas of knowl- edge will fade, and we will discover larger and larger horizons when we move. ,
