AN OPEN HAND AN EASY SHOE AND The series of experiences which go to make up the life of F rankton High School might fall into four fields- Education, School- spirit, Social Life, and Athletics. As the stude nt s participate in these experiences, the y find that they, like the new pair of loafers they purchased before school began, fit into the picture better by having participated. It is the purpose of the 1959 Eaglite staff to present this picture as clearly as possible, and to provide you the reader with a gold min e of memories both now and for years to come . . . May you find that these experiences have like the shoe, worn well.

f 1, S' yo X Diamonds are only chunks of coal That stuck to their jobs, you see: If they'd petered out, as most of us do, Where would the diamonds be? It isn't the fact of making a start, lt's the sticking that counts. I'll say It's the fellow that knows not the meaning of fall But hammers and hammers away. Whenever you think you've come to the end, And you're beaten as bad as can be, Remember that diamonds are chunks of coal, That stuck to their jobs, you see. ROBERT ED LEE Robert Ed Lee joinedthe faculty at Frank- ton High School inl930 and sincethat time had Frankton and the students in the school as his chief interest. In the fall of 1947, Mr. Lee assumed the role of principal, a position he held until the time of his passing, Sunday morning, December 21, 1958. Mr. Lee gave many long hours to his duties as principal. He was often found at work in the building in the wee hours of the morning. Truly the words of the poet who penned the lines above-he is a diamond. He stuck to his job. 4 7
