Homer L Ferguson High School - Mariner Yearbook (Newport News, VA)

Page 15 text:

Some people say that a treasure is an accumulation of wealth while others feel that it is a greatly valued thing which should be put away for future use. By these two definitions I qualify Ferguson as the personal treasure chest of every hearty Mariner! Each day at Ferguson enriches our knowledge of life, enhances our priceless school spirit and increases our private store of memories. The knowledge we have gathered in these halls will be our precision tool in future years. With it we will carve for ourselves a place in a competitive society. The pride that we, as students, feel in our school marks Ferguson as an outstanding school on the peninsula. Our un- daunted school spirit proclaims to all that we have much to offer and much to gain through our unity of purpose. The lasting friendships begun here will not end here but will abide with us as gems of remem- brance to remind us of the many happy times shared hereby our fellow Mariners. This year has been a memorable one at Ferguson; it has been especially valuable and impressive to the seniors. This annual is our effort to provide you with a pictorial key to the treasure chest that is Ferguson in the year 1964. 9t ore won cf 1 1
