FOREWORD When William I ordered a Doomsday Book to l e compiled in 1086 A. D. for the purpose of learning about the Saxons who comprised his realm, he did not realize that the Saxons of Hastings High School would publish a Doomsday Book in 1940 to record the deeds of the people in their realm. We who are leaving High School for the last time hope that in making this book we have selected the most interesting, vital, and useful in- formation of the last year’s activities. In the years to come may our Doomsday Book provide pleasant memories for all those mentioned therein.
