Ready to send GLEAM copy to the printer, adviser and staff members declare this the happiest day of the yearf, They are Mrs. May, adviser, Frances James, copy editor, Huey Sprouse, o - Editors Bid Farewell With one year of experience behind us as co-editors of the 1961 GLEAM, we have a real understanding of what it means to be co-editors of a high-ranking year- book. The job offers varied experience, excellent train- ing, plenty of excitement, and unbounded pleasure, but more than any of this, being co-editors presents a con- tinuous challenge, a challenge to produce a yearbook that will be prized and praised, loved and lauded by fellow students who see their school and themselves fully and truthfully portrayed in its pages. This year brought us many delightful surprises that made our job even more of a thrill than we had ever dreamed of. A trip to Columbia, last spring, where we saw the 1960 GLEAM being printed and where we feasted at a marvelous luncheon as guests of our printers, The R. L. Bryan Company, a most eventful October day at the South Carolina Year Book Association convention, at Lander college, and, as the supreme highlight of senior- hood for four GLEAM staff members, a fabulous, ten-day trip to New York City as delegates to the Columbia Scholastic Press Association convention, are a few of the outstanding KGLEAM extrasv that have starred our year. And right here, we'd like to record our gratitude to our Area Superintendent, Mr. Gordon May, who took the group to New York, and all the way there and back served as the most capable guide, the most helpful friend, a group of students ever had. Despite such memory-filled frolics, as have been named, we and many other members of the GLEAM staff spent hour upon hour in Room 7 working intently on the 1961 C-LEAM. During fourth period every day and after school on many an afternoon, we worked hard hoping to make this volume another Medalist and All-American. From this, we gained both knowledge and experience, and learned first-hand how to accept responsibility. We know that neither we nor the entire staff could have produced this yearbook without the co-operation of many. In general, weid like to thank our teachers and fellow students for encouragement and confidence, and each subscriber and advertiser for the patronage that senior associate editor, and jonnie Weatherford and Charlie jor- dan, co-editors-in-chief. The work on the GLEAM had taken a full year of studying, planning, and carrying out of many plans. With incere Thanks makes a yearbook financially possible. Then there are specific ones to whom our heartfelt thanks go forth. First, there is our adviser, Mrs. Eoline E. May. For her devoted assistance, her untiring effort, her under- standing of what to do in any and every situation, we wish to express admiration and gratitude. Mrs. May has meant more to us in every way than we can ever express. We also wish to thank Miss Doris Gwinn, associate business adviser, who did the bookkeeping and deposited all money. Her efficiency made it easy to find facts and figures at a moment's notice. To Mr. Claude Smith, our photographer, weid like to express sincere appreciation. His patience, his good humor, and his willingness to come to school at any time to take GLEAM pictures, we canit forget. Nor shall we forget the kindness and the interest shown by our printeris representative, Mr. Ed O,Cain. We have en- joyed associations with him. To Mr. Turner, Mr. Watts, and to Miss Evan in the office, for making announcements and furnishing us necessary information, we are most grateful, and to Mrs. Katherine Gregory, Union area bookkeeper, for her part in handling GLEAM business, goes our appreciation. What would we have done without the group that aworked like Trojansv every day during fourth period in Room 7 to see that the GLEAM was completed before the deadline! Surely they deserve special recognition. And finally, to the whole GLEAM staff, for selling, for writing, for typing, for attending meetings, for supporting every GLEAM interest to the fullest, we give heartiest thanks. It is with a feeling of sadness and joy combined, that we present this, the 1961 GLEAM, to you, the readers. We hope that now and forever it will mean as much to you as it has, does and always will mean to us. February 22, 1961. , ' F -fa find
