Mitchell, who has given thirty-two years of faithful service. Mrs. Mitchell graduated from Pitkin High School and received her B. A. degree from Northwestern State College in Natchitoches, where she majored in English and History. Later she attended L. S, U. and readied herself for primary work. We will always cherish the memory of Mrs. Lola T. Mitchell. ' 5 :• • --• - • -' te c : 7v ' '-'?r-h.: 'tsr i ?,?a! 5 - «. -?r •w ' x? ' .  'w i.I'- M .

As principal of Evans High School, it is my desire to continue our good school system and have it become better each year. It is my sincere hope that you, who are leaving us and you who shall remain, will have nourished your hopes and dreams. We hope we have helped plant in you the desire to become the worthwhile citizen and leader we know you are capable of being. Arvil Harvey Seated - Frances Jeane, Billie Davis. James White - Editor.
