Editor ' s Closing Remarlcs The Argus is whatever people associated with Appleby care to make it. Many, many of those people have contributed to the yearbook and what you see is a collection of their efforts. We cannot name them all - poets, athletes, masters, artists, etc. , but we can only say a special word to those whose effort has been extraordinary. Two people in particular have made this edition of the Argus, Mr. Mrs. Landry. Mrs. Landry has typed every word that you see printed here, sometimes several times over. Mr. Landry has been given the misnomer of ' Staff Advisor ' , but should be more correctly termed Co-Editor. He has overseered the financial state of the Argus, laid out pages, written reports, proofread, and done in fact everything that a competent editor should under- take. Mrs. Pritchard was a great help in organizing our financial position too, and was always willing to give assistance. Of course it ' s no use having excellent money managers if they do not have any money to work with. Here, the advertising staff stepped in and their effort produced wonderful results. Our problem became not how to find the advertising to fill pages but how to find pages for the advertising ( we added sixteen pages to the Argus this year). Generous parents sent donations to the Argus totalling over $1200 and with the support of both of these groups the school ' s $500 subsidy was un- necessary, we were able to order an expensive cover for the book and still have a few hundred dollars left over for next year ' s Argus. Every year, there has been a cry for more pictures in the Argus. This year we answered such pleas by encouraging a very tireless group of photographers who at the outset lacked organization but throughout worked unceasingly. They developed and printed almost all of the hundreds of pictures they shot and if a complaint was raised about a photograph, they disappeared into the school darkroom to emerge with another copy, lighter, darker, cropped or in some way reformed. Here then is what all of these people have produced - The 1972-73 Argus, a book with a hundred editors. Bill Crosbie James McKenzie
