I ' BLUE DEVIL STAFF OF 1972 175 During our years al Gate City High School, we have begun to see life in a very s{)eeial way. When we look back upon the year 1972, it will hold many memorable occasions in our hearts. As members of organizations, we shared horizons that were new to us. We learned the value and true importance of working together. We dared to tackle the impossible; sometimes w( ' won — sometimes we lost. We started out walking as freshmen and gradually w( learned to run. As freshmcm it was hard to take that first giant step, but as we matured into sophomores, juniors, and seniors, we learned what lib ' was all about. Now as we draw near to the end of this year, we realize that we have only just b(‘gun! LONESOME PINE REGIONAL LIBRARY 3 1720 01015 2524
