We owe a debt of gratitude to Mrs. Delia Williams Paine, sister of Libbey ' s first principal, Harold E. Williams,- for echoing in the heart of every Libbeyite is the song which she composed — The Blue and Gold. Since her song is Libbey, we have taken it as the theme of the 1 955 Edelian. mrs. della williams paine

gold Our Libbey colors blue and gold, Are emblems that we love; They fill our hearts with joy and pride, As they proudly wave above. The blue ever like the sky so fair, The gold like the sun shining bright, Will lead us on to victory, In paths of truth and right. — Mrs. Delia Williams Paine Edward Drummond Libbey High School is more than the fine building on Western Avenue in Toledo, Ohio. It is its leaders, students, and traditions interacting. It is the silent moment that instills peace and courage for the day and years ahead; the big dance we antici- pate for weeks (everyone will be there); the friendly greeting we exchange in the hall with a classmate, or a teacher, or Mr. Rusie,- the non-denominational services we reverently attend; the camaraderie of the Rhythm Roundup and our class plays; the loyalty we give our teams in victory or defeat; the blue of the sky and the sun shining on the towers when we enter in the morning; the special feeling within when we sing our song; the joy and pride we take in the achievements of any one of us; the learning and the sharing— the Blue and Gold.
