We, the class of ’56, dedicate our yearbook,

THE EAGLET, to Miss Mabel Crowe, our friend

and class advisor for the past four years.

We wish to extend to you in this small way our

sincerest appreciation for making these four years

enjoyable as well as fruitful.

All of us wish you the best of luck with your

future classes as well as in everything you may do.

Many thanks from the class of '56.

FOREWORD

Our school career fades away . . . graduation over. . .

a new life . . . college, work, marriage . . . cherished

old friendships . . . plans made and broken . . . Into the

future ... a world to be conquered . . for some, fame-

fortune, others disappointment . . . all striving for success.

So We, the Class of 1956, not wanting our high school days

to be forgotten, bring you this book. May it truly become

a spotlight to acquaint you with our high school days as we

recall them.
