MR. PAUL R. HESS M.A., A.B., Fairmont State College, West Virginia University; Geometry, Consumer Science. With sincere appreciation for a friendly and interesting member of the faculty, we, the seniors, dedicate this Optic of 1959 to Mr. Paul Hess; for his lively interest and participation in our school life has won for him the loyalty and friendship of every senior. An ardent Eagle fan is Mr. Hess. He has worked as a time keeper or score keeper for 15 years in over 300 Eagle football and basketball games. We, the seniors, wish to take this opportunity to express our sincerest appreciation to our sympathetic and faithful class sponsor, Mrs. Ruth Ann Pyle, and to our competent and understanding principal, Mr. Powell. To these many praises, we can but add a few more to show our appreciation for their guidance throughout our high school years. The senior class of ’59 is proud and a little sad to say that, now it is time to leave, we are just beginning to know them well. MRS. RUTH ANN PYLE A.B., Western State Teachers College, Bowling Green College; Shorthand, Business Exploration. MR. J. EDWARD POWELL M.A., A.B., West Virginia University; Principal. 3

Life is marked by significant and important steps—steps front childhood to adolescence, from adolescence to adulthood, from immaturity to maturity. Your diploma will symbolize one of the most important steps of your life— a step from high school friends and activities to a new world which, though it may seem strange at first, will become an essential part of your life. If this yearbook presents a clear picture of the three years preceding this major step—graduation—we, the Optic staff, can feel that our work has not been in vain, for our aim in publishing this yearbook has been to present to you, the student, a book of cherished memories to which you may refer when you think of what we sincerely hope were the best years of your life, those spent in Victory.
