St Johns High School - Blue Devil Yearbook (Darlington, SC)

Text from Pages 1 - 72 of the 1959 volume:

THE 1959 BLUE DEVIL PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENTS OF ST. JOHN'S HIGH SCHOOL Darlington, South Carolina A year at St. John’s provides many pleasant occasions. The most memorable of these are the Junior-Senior Banquet, the Class Day ceremony, and the May Day pro- gram. No year is complete without a fad, and this year it was the hula hoop.” 2 CONTENTS CLASSES ACTIVITIES SPORTS FEATURES The first big thrill for the Se- niors came with the arrival of class rings; next the arrival of annual pic- tures; And then came the crowning moment ..........Graduation!!! FOREWORD All of our experiences have be- come part of us now. We dig deep into the files of our memory and re- call the days past—when we won the Pee Dee Conference, when we donned our first tuxedos or received cor- sages for Junior-Senior—when we shared all the joys and sorrows that come with high school days. These days are not irrevocable and shall be relived each time this book is o- pened. A Sportsmanship, friendship, integrity; these are the qualities most respected and admired by young people. We have found these attributes and many others in our superintendent. Because of his unselfish devotion to us and our activities, We dedicate THE 1959 BLUE DEVIL to 5 MR. G. C.
