Mrs. W. D. 8urgsteiner, financial secretary, and Mrs. their problems must be worked out together. Harold Gulliver, records secretary, find that many of Experience is an anchor upon which young people can depend for stability. Their be- havior and their ideas are often patterned af- ter those of experienced supervisors whom they respect and admire. With over fifty years of experience in ad- ministration, teaching, and guidance, the ad- ministrators of VHS are well-qualified to serve as prototypes for the students they guide. Mr. Bridges, principal of VHS for seventeen years, commands the utmost respect. He al- ways considers the personal and the intellec- tual welfare of the students. Guidance-counselor at VHS for ten years, Miss Ford is familiar with the problems of teenagers. She is just as able to help students face personal problems as she is to guide them in their academic problems and prepara- tion for college or careers. Mr. Nunn has filled the position of super- intendent of city schools for fifteen years. Al- though his supervision extends over all city schools, he always finds time to aid and advise the students of Valdosta High. As secretary to Miss Ford, Mrs. Lawley keeps the files in order for easy reference. 7

Mrs. Brown Leaves Lovely Image God give me sympathy and sense. And help to keep my courage high; God give me calm and confidence, And please, a twinkle in my eye. With wisdom, understanding, and a twinkle in her eye, Mrs. Vera Brown presents a perfect example of the qualities named in her favorite quotation. For the students fortunate enough to be enrolled in her class- es, Mrs. Brown brings Latin to life, confirming the familiar statement that Latin Lives Today. Although her teaching the classic language keeps many students from being in her classes, few fail to come in contact with Mrs. Brown's friendliness. She goes out of her way to help not only the students in her senior home room and her Latin classes but all the students in the school. Her retirement next year will be a great loss to both students and faculty of Valdosta High. With sin- cere gratitude for the encouragement and inspiration she has given during her years with us, the senior class dedicates the 1965 SANDSPUR to Mrs. Brown. 9 TOP LEFT: Assistant editor Larry Harrell presents Mrs. Brown with her corsage at the SANDSPUR dedication on Senior Day.
