VQWNEV 7955 PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF WEBB SCHOOL BELL BUCKLE, TENNESSEE We, the Class of 1955, feel that it is appropriate that this book be named THE SAWNEY after William Robert SaWney Webb, the founder of our school. Webb School is but an extension of his shadow and we have striven to carry out the ideals which he has set for us.
