A city set on a hill cannot be hid. (Matthew 5:14) Page Two MR. WILLIAM RUSSELL PRICE 1906-1955 DEDICATION We, the members of the Senior Class, dedicate the Tus i t ala for 1956 to the loving memory of Mr. W. R. Price. A life with such high integrity and sterling convictions could not help but leave its imprint on the lives of the students. Mr. Price for four years guided our steps along the paths of learning. He led the boys on to greater victories, not only on the football field, but in the game of life. We shall al- ways fondly remember the part he played in our lives. Assistant Editor.

Spring Music Festival Graduation Marshals and Usher Page Eighty-Four CLASS HISTORY Today is only yesterday a little later. Yesterday is history and by tomorrow, today will be history also. Yesterday we entered Mount Zion Institute as eighth-graders. We were young and comically small. The girls were taller than the boys, who sang soprano in the eighth grade choir. But the day came when we all felt bigger and more important. By initiation we became a part of Mount Zion, So, in the fall of 1951, we were orientated into high school. We were enthusiastic about everything — ath- letics, clubs, the paper — even though we couldn't take a real part in them. We learned all the upperclassmen's names to giv 3 us a sense of belonging By the time we entered the ninth grade in 1952, we actually became parts of the high school machine. We were allowed to elect some of our courses. Some of us took Latin and algebra, while others found that their in- terests ran to home economics and agriculture. We joined every club we could think of and began to participate in sports. That year some of us were allowed to go to the mental contests for the first time. Our year as freshmen passed quickly and before we knew it we were in the 10th grade. We attended the Har- vest Ball and the Sweetheart Ball, gave class parties, and looked forward to being Juniors, That year we got our first taste of Junior-Senior, The girls served at the banquet and some of the boys were doormen. Last year was probably our busiest, and I'm sure that we enjoyed it more than any other year. Some of us were initiated into the Beta Club and were able to go to the convention in Columbia. Our club ran Laughlin McDonald for state president and we were justifiably proud when he was elected. We gave our Junior-Senior and felt that it was one of the best ever given. Our theme was Gay Paree and we really worked to get the gym decorated with the Eiffel Tower and pictures of Paris, We elected representatives for Girl's State and some of us were marshals and ushers for graduation. Last, but not least, we presented Room for One More, our Junior play. And then we were seniors. Our year was saddened by the deaths of Mr. Price and Jerry Branham. Mr, Price had guided us over the often rocky road of high school for four years and was a friend and counselor to all o£us. We missed his helping hand in all our senior projects. But we are grateful to Mr. Williams for his wise counsel and for all the work he has done to bring us to this day, Jerry, bashful and shy though he was, was a sincere and devoted friend. His death not only shocked us but brought home to us the fact that tragedy could strike in our group as well as any other. This year we have edited Campus Comments and our annual, the Tusitala. We elected Senior Superlatives, Miss D. A, R., Miss Hi Miss, and King Teen. A tennis team was organized this year — an innovation in Mount Zion's sports' department. All the players were from the Senior Class, so we take the credit for beginning a sport which is sure to be popular with the student body. Again this year we let our dramatic inclinations come to the surface and presented Ring Around Elizabeth. And the high point of the whole year was the banquet and dance given us by the Junior Class. And now the history of the Class of 1956 is nearing the end. In a few more days, our graduation will be over. It doesn't seem possible that the work of five years has been completed so quickly. But here we stand on the thres- hold of our adult years, with college and careers ahead. It is sad and a little frightening to know that soon we shall be a part of the history of Mount Zion. Our years in high school have been good years. We have come to know our classmates and have shared the ups and downs of growing up together. And always we have Mount Zion's history to inspire us and to lead us onward. We leave the school which has meant so much to us to those who follow. We leave our Light on the Hill which has burned for nearly two hundred years to generations yet unborn and we charge them to honor her name and preserve her traditions for posterity. Pauline E. Dunlap Historian Page Eighty-Five CLASS POEM This may be a curious time. One of confusion and witless rhyme. But let us not vest the occasion With untruths of time’s persuasion. O, how good humor is abounding! With mirth the walls are resounding! But if our good times remit, Here’s a little ditty I submit; Nancy wills her quiet ways To Sally Smith who misbehaves, And Harry Square his great physique To Albert Einstein, the local creep. Because he knows that he will put it to good use. But why the reason for all the fuss? Is not the diploma good enough? No, a public appearance it must be. My parents are so proud of me. So as we go in academic blue, We look so cute and dignified, too. Remember, please, this little phrase, These, my friends, are our happiest days.

Page Ninety-Three IN MEMORIAM JERRY CUPSTEAD BRANHAM 1937-1955 THOMAS ADRIAN WILKES 1939-1956 A shadow of gloom fell over our community twice during the past year, when death came to two of our classmates, Jerry Branham and Adrian Wilkes. But death snuffed out their lives so quickly that they had no time to lose their glow. As the flame of a candle continues to glow after it has been extinguished, so shall their lives glow in the hearts of their classmates. Jerry's and Adrian's flames are out, but their lights have only been diffused.
