FOREWORD With pleasure we present this 1956 edition of The Columbian with the hope that it will bring
you many hours of enjoyment as you review through its pages the highlights of this year at Colum¬ bia High School. May this book always be to you a symbol of your many happy hours at Columbia High!
PRINCIPAL To hold even our present level of progress we continually
need more education and training. The great masses of our people are capable of taking increasing amounts of develop¬ ment along desired lines. Thus it becomes our business in school to stimulate pupils in growing in every good way possible. Rapid forward strides have been made in recent years. Today we are hopeful for youth everywhere in meeting the dynamic challenge confronting them and the world.

CLASS POEM We started at the foot of the pit. Climbing and struggling, and making the best of it Placing our feet on the rocky ledge, Preparing for the future that lies ahead.
Trying to make sure of every move, So there will be nothing in the future to lose, Upward we climb through the dark of the night, Trying to reach the bright beaming light.
The higher we climb, the harder we fight, For the goal we set is now in sight. We have known of the darkness of night. But now we see tomorrow's light.
GLENN SIMMONS Class Poet

CLASS PROPHECY I was singing one day at the studio, and remembered an old tune of fifty-six. After
rehearsal I picked up the paper and reread the sports field of today. My mind wondered
back, to when my classmates and I were going to school. Now they are placed in this
world of people and troubles. Bill White has taken the place of Arthur Godfrey and is popping corny jokes all the
time. _ Rena Mae is doing fine; she's a piano artistrTOw^ Liberace is a small guy compared
to her. Instead of George, sb^^^ppMarilyn. Christine finally gotJ^itched to a mahvwith plentV.of cabbage, green at that;

Carrie Ann is a lawyer now; her recent case was to help Lydia prove that old Abe Lincoln was one of the greatest presidents of yester year.
Jimmy Walker was judge of the case, but he decided to drop it because it was time for lunch.
