INTRODUCTION We, the La Reata Staff, hope that this book is an accurate rec- ord of our school year of 1953-54 and that it meets the approval of its readers—our classmates. A full Spring section is included for the first time, recording the events of the important time in the school year. We have changed other sections of this book somewhat this year in an effort to include as many photos of all students as possible. Our thanks, as usual, to our advertisers, who make this book financially possible. The La Reata Staff Adria McVey Business Mgr. Beverly Garner Editor Keith Walker Photographer 3
