Our friends, teachers, classmates have all played a part in this. We have tried to preserve memories through words and pictures that we hope will serve to bring en¬ joyment now in the future. As co-editors, we would like to express our deepest appreciation to the members of the yearbook staff, administration, faculty, and student body for their splendid co-operation with us in helping to publish the 1960 edition of the Bulldog. In years to come, may you look at this book and think of a job done through honest efforts and hard work. Co-Editors: Morese Woodrum Audrey King 3 TO OUR BELOVED PARENTS, AND DEVOTED SENIOR SPONSORS To our Beloved Parents and our Devoted Senior Sponsors, we the class of 1960 wish to dedicate this year ' s edition of the Bulldog to you. Your patient understanding and encouraging words have been a necessity during our school life. We are grateful for this, for only you knew that our past school phase of study would create the future for us. As we strive to reach more rewarding goals that lie ahead we will always remember the one you have just helped us to reach. In this small, but sincere way we cheerfully dedicate this book.

One hundred-thirty seven seekers of knowledge set foot on the Luther H. Foster soil. This was only the starting point of a wonderful school year in a land of great wisdom, and perfect understanding which offered a variety of phases of knowledge. In the years that followed, 56 of our seekers of knowledge were unable to continue their climb up the ladder. Of course, we had a few celebrities along the way. In the Eighth grade, we were fortunate enough to have Gloria Bridgeforth crowned as Miss Bronze America of 1955-56. In 1956-57, Kathleen Neal was runner-up to Miss Foster. In our Junior year, Thelma Pitts was crowned Miss Homecoming of 1958-59. Our Junior-Senior Prom was the biggest event of our Junior year. The theme was Satellite Ball, based on outerspace. It was a knock-out! Hurrah! Hurrah! The year we’ve all been waiting for, our Senior year. We strive with this motto, We have crossed the bay, the ocean lies before us. To guide us through this year, our officers are: President, Jesse Randle; Vice President, Ernest King; Secretary, Kathleen Neal; Assistant Secretary, Lillie Ford; Treasurer, Gloria Collier; Chaplain, Geraldine Wilson; Parlia¬ mentarian, Lawrence Fowlkes; Sergeants-at-arms, Willie Jones and John Jefferson. We have worked patiently and waited for this day. We have worked together and played together, and now we have reached, not the end, as we had supposed, but the beginning; yes, the beginning of a new life and a new responsibility. Though it makes us sad to leave the old life that we have loved so well, we enter the new one gladly. The responsiblity is a heavy one but we accept it cheerfully. We know what we must do; we must keep moving forward. It would not be enough if we merely kept our civilization on the plane to which it has been lifted by those who have gone before us. We must lift it higher, and this we intend to do! We make no rash promises as to what we will do in the future, but this we do promise: What we can do, we will do. We will give you no cause to be ashamed of us, and we will try to make the world better having lived and worked in it. We ask for your best wishes and God’s guidance as we each go our separate ways. Gloria Bridgeforth Kathleen Neal Thelma Pitts Lillian Eppes 6 MR. JOSEPH B. PERVALL B.S. Virginia Union University M.S. Virginia State College THE PRINCIPAL SPEAKS . . . It has been a real pleasure to again be the administrative head of this school. I wish to express my appreciation to the faculty, Board of Education, students, custodians, parents, and other persons of the county for their excellent co-operation in making this a pleasant and success¬ ful school year. The time for your graduation is at hand. May I, as representative of the entire school, extend congratulations and highest hopes for success in the times that lie ahead. We charge you to unfaltering loyalty, to truth, honesty, justice, and godliness. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: Let us therefore cast off the works of darkness and let us put on the armour of light. 8 MRS. ETHEL L.

Now that we have learned to use our tools, We can put in to practice those Golden Rules. Since we have tried very dearly, i We hope to do all things sin¬ cerely. For us the foundation has been laid; Our dreams, hopes and goals it will aid. We think how swiftly the moments passed, And how we have toiled from class to class, But the time has come; we know we must go. Our destiny , we do not know. We have always striven to do our best, Never were we satisfied with any¬ thing less. But now we must leave dear old Foster High. We have gained much knowledge; now we must apply. We know that we have not yet begun, The enormous task that is undone; But still we will continue with smiles To travel the future miles. I So parents, teacher, students, and all You have uplifted us; we don ' t plan to fall. We are now on our own; we have come thus far. Our school ' s reputation, we will not mar. Lillie Ford Ann Bland CLASS SONG I. The year of 1960 Is slowly passing by We hate to leave you Foster Dear But we must say good-bye. Chorus We never will forget you and For us the things you ' ve done We hope your dreams of us come true In future years to come. II.
