Foreword Like all Shield Sfaffs, we, fhe I956 sfaff, were defefmlned fhaf our book should be differenf. Alfhough if is HUG fhaf W9 already had 'rhe disfincfion of puffing ouf 'rhe firsf real year book, we wanfed somefhing more, somefhing fhaf wOUlCl make our book +ruly unique. To achieve fhis added somefhing, we selecfed a plaid cover, a cover fhaf all pasf Shield Sfaffs wanfed, buf were unable fo have. Around 'lhis cover we buill' a fheme, and whal' could be more appropriafe fhan a Scoffish fheme fo go wifh a plaid cover? So, fo carry ouf our idea of a Sco'H'ish fheme, we found ourselves plunged in fhe fradifions of Scofland and immersed in a sea of folk songs. We found, for example, fhaf fhe nafional game was golf, and whaf song would beH'er sui+ 'I'his rafher leisurely sporl' 'rhan Flow Genfly, Sweef Affon, Among Thy Green Braes ? Thus, Flow Genfly, Sweef Af+on became fhe division page for afhlefics. The Classes reminded us of fhe words in Loch Lomond which say, Oh! Ye'll Take 'rhe High Road, and l'll Take +he'Low Road . So, Loch Lomond had fo be fhe division page of fhe Classes. Then, 'rhe words of Auld Lang Syne , we fhoughf, sug- gesfed memories of fhe many clubs and organizafions af Rich- mond Union High School. So, Auld Lang Syne was selecf- ed for fhe division page of Organizafions. Again, whaf would school be wifhouf ifs social life and fhe many acfivifies fhaf go on fhroughouf fhe school year? Wifh 'rhis in mind, Comin' Thro' fhe Rye was chosen for fhe Acfivifies division page. Yef again, in selecfing a division page for fhe Adverfisemenfs, we liked My Bonnie Lassie because of ifs words: I'lI Meef Her af fhe Shore, Playin' fhe Pipes for Her, Dressed in a Kilf and a Tamo-'Shanfer foo . Lasf, buf mosl' imporfanf, we had 'lo deal wifh The Senior Secfion. Here we found fhaf The Campbells Are Coming expressed fhe redoubfable Senior spirif. lf is our fond hope fhaf in fufure years, whenever you hap- pen fo hear fhese ScoHish funes, you will remember 'the good days you spenl af Richmond High. This, af any rafe, was whaf we had in mind when we chose SCOTLAND IN SONG as 'rhe 'theme for fhe I956 Shield,
