The pictorial record of buildings and facilities show signs of progress but these things are only empty shells without you--our students and teachers. The true worth of any school is shown in the quality of its product. Students, you have the privilege of living in the most exciting, challenging and turbulent period in man’s history, but with this privilege will come great and grave responsibility. The way you face the pressures and solve the problems will determine tomorrow’s world. Best wishes to each individual represented in this publication.

PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE To the students of Evans High School: Congratulations to the Eagle Staff, their Sponsor and the many people who have made contributions to this annual. The completion of this book marks the successful accomplishment of an objective. It proves you have the ability to succeed and to accom- plish a task no matter how arduous it might be. In years to come it will be a joy for you to turn these pages and renew your thoughts of school-mates and teachers of “Good Old Evans High.” Congratulation to the graduating class of “66” on the completion of your work and may I extend my best wishes for your future success.

SENIOR CLASS '66 We, the Senior Class of ’66 of Evans High School, leave this school to all those who attend school here and to those who will be coming to school here in the future years. We have had a wonderful time during our years at Evans but it is now time for us to leave all this behind. The two grades that we most enjoyed were the eighth and the twelfth, since in both grades we were looking forward to something different and exciting.
