n ppreciation MR. BRADLEY VAN BRUNT It is with the greatest admiration and sincerity that we dedicate this year book to our principal, Mr. Bradley Van Brunt, who always finds time to aid and counsel those in need of assistance. Possessing a dynamic personality, as well as outstanding characteristics of leadership, our principal is ideally suited for the many duties and responsibilities of his office. He is the sponsor of many activities which include the year book, Student Council and Athletics. We, the students, express our deep gratitude to him for his constant inspira- tion and devoted interest in our welfare. MISS ROSE DE LORENZO We consider it a pleasure to dedicate our yearbook to Miss Rose de Lorenzo, teacher in the Commercial Department, who. through her untiring efforts and many months of hard work has made this year book a reality. Miss de Lorenzo, commonly known as Miss Dee , will be remembered always by those who know her as a person of great sympathy and understanding, and as one possessed of a genuine interest in everything she undertakes to do. Stu- dents seek her advice and her help in various matters and respect her judgment. She will always be held in high esteem and remembered affectionately by her students and friends.

IN MEMUBIAM Dr. Thomas C. McVey We mourn the death which came to a popular and well-liked civic leader unex- pectedly on Thursday, September 22, 1949. Dr. McVey was mayor of Atlantic Highlands from Ianuary l, 1939 until December 31, 1945 and previously had served on the Borough Council. He had been school dentist for the past 15 years and was loved by all the students of Atlantic Highlands High School for his magnetic personality, his comical jokes, and his cooperative dental services. He will live in our hearts as a man who led his life brightening the lives of all those who had the good fortune of coming in contact with him. On the street, in school, at his office,-everywhere joy and glad- ness followed him. Iames Mackey lt was with great grief and sorrow that we learned of the death of one of the out- standing members of our class, Iames Mackey, during the Summer of 1949. Iames, who was a member of the Na- tional Guard and died in the service of his country spent his school days winning friends in classes and school activities. We will always hold in loving memory Iames' outstanding friendliness, cheer- fulness, and readiness to help a pal in need. These characteristics have imprint- ed on our minds an image that will keep him alive wherever and whenever we recollect our high school days.
