foreword First year occupancy in a modern, spacious new building! This is a chal- lenge to anyone, but especially to a group of teenagers occupying a new three-million dollar high school. It is a challenge for many reasons, but one of the big reasons is the newness and difference of the new school contrasted with the Old Harding High. No one will forget the crowded conditions, long noon hours and the disputes between the Herald and Quiver staffs in the dingy corridor by room 17. There were the times when East Hall couldn't hear the announcements and sometimes the boilers would break down to give us an unexpected vacation. Things have been different this year. Students have possessed a desire to keep the building in the same condition as they found it. All 1,054 of us were thrilled September 8, when we entered the building, for the first time as a group, to start the school year 1953-54. The lunchroom was a new experience for many of us, and the Juniors and Seniors were amazed at the space in the halls and classrooms, and each student was given a locker of his own. Curriculum has changed too, and many new courses are being offered to the students. Behind the scenes the picture has changed, too. This year's QUIVER is a radical departure from the last ten years annuals at Harding. The first change your QUIVER staff made helped to make your '54 QUIVER the newest, most modern book Harding High School has seen. We changed our printing process from letterpress to lithography, enabling us to design the new shape Senior panels and mod- ern style page layouts. The black and white cover follows the modern trend. To show the floor plan of the new school the cover features a re- cessed outline ofthe school. Photographic end leaves, showing the school from the air, score another first in Quiver history. A spring supplement has never been used at Harding, so your Quiver staff is trying it this year. Now that you have read about some of the innovations in the '54 Quiver, go ahead, read it, and enioy it to the fullest. lt's your school as the gang in Room 207 has observed it this year, and with the cooperation of you and many of the community, presented it. forward
