,mw- ald l-Espeia Blue. dgtor-i nCC- e n-chief of th e Red Red and Blue The validity of a books theme is continually being tested by its components. Are the divisions natural or artificial? Are the pictures articulate expressions of the theme? Are they too direct, too oblique? Do the trivial and episodic have in them the latent quality of a theme? Are the activities represented as organic features of the theme? These were some of the problems that faced this year's staff as they traveled the labyrinthine ways that a year- book charts. Equipped with patience and imagination and fortified by a capacity for hard work, they drew unity out of confusiong hltering, rejejcting and adding wherever needed. Their book is essentially a camera chronicle of the year's activities. For them the Red and Bfue is a testa- ment of the mind and heart that vitalizes Bishop Bradley High School. If their picture does not fit your concept, may there be enough latitude in the book to add your own marginal notes. Sifting and sorting: D. L'Esperance, J. Mooney, R. Tremblay, R. Fortin, W. Boucher, R. Sevigny.
