FOREWORD 0 ALL who are friends of the Newport News High School and who are interested in onr work, we extend our most hearty greeting. This is our first attempt to present to the public in this form the representation of our school career, and we therefore, beg that your criticisms be not too severe. We have labored to give you a glimpse into both the work and pleasure of our High School life, and in so doing we have tried to give each class its fair apportionment. We hope you may find some pleasure in these pages, and that “The Anchor” will sink deep into the channel bed of your sympathetic nature and hold you a true friend to all that makes for High School advancement in our community. Editors
