PEABODIANS IN A We, the students of Pea- body High, recognize the im- portance of school spirit and school pride . The student body diligently strives to carry on its tedious task of pushing the Lions on to victory. In work- ing together with ultimate goals we not only bring honor and victory to our team, but pride and acknowledgement to our school. Even in their darkest hour, the mighty Lions have trudged on until they have found light in the dismal jungle of com- petition. Win or lose the Lions ' heads are always high, their smiles sincere, and their actions justified. A true Lion is one who is loyal and one who is always ready to defend the Lion ' s honor in sports competition or academic excellence . A true Lion, above all else, possesses the rare quality of persever- ance . No true Lion gives up easily, for the reward that lies ahead; his determi- nation and toil bring him nearer to it .

DEDICATION To one who is never a stranger among men, To one whose calling card is forever a smile To one whose life is varied and full To one whose hand is always a helping hand To one whose songs are the sweet songs of a lark, We, the Class of 1969, dedicate this yearbook To Reverend Vernon Lee. A native of Petersburg and a graduate of Peabody, Mr. Vernon Lee is no stranger in the environs of the Peabody family. In spite of the many demands made on his life which involve him as a minister and a father, Reverend Lee still has the time to aid Peabody in its many activities. i
