A SPECIAL THANKS TO YOU: MR. BILL BRAZIS, MR. DEAN ZANG, MS. GAIL MAYO, MR. GARY WILSON, MR. BUCK MUMMA, MR. RANDY SHEAFFER It was almost a year no one wanted. Caught between the troubles of the seventies and the promise of the eighties, 1979 was a finishing, a wrap- ping up. We all waited impatiently for the clean start of a new decade, and looked back irritably at the past one — at inflation, energy shortages, and political upheavals. In the year no one wanted, we, the staff of Bohemian 1979, decided to pause and look at the people who did the jobs no one wanted. There are always jobs whose responsibility or time-consumption is so great no one wants them. In a small school this problem is increased. But Bo has been lucky. We have always managed to find — eventually — someone who Is kind enough, or dumb enough, who cares enough, or is enough of a sucker, to stick out his neck. This year we had six teachers who took the jobs no one wanted. Ms. Mayo and Mr. Zang took the Student Council last spring, after a desperate search by the Council to find an advisor. A month later, Mr. Wilson and Mr. Mumma were persuaded to take the Junior class — with Fun Night and the Prom. Things progressed normally until basketball season, when no J.V. Coach could be found. Mr. Sheaffer, who was already coaching two other sports, stepped in to save the program from being scrapped. Then in the spring, after no tennis coach appeared, Mr. Brazis finally succum- bed to pressure and dedicated his racket, his experience and his free time to Bo. It was almost a year nobody wanted. But it was a year w hen the dedication of these teachers was something we all wanted — and needed. And so, for all the lost hours of sleep, the T.V. shows you've missed, the days when none of it seemed worthwhile, or no one seemed to be working, — for all this, plus the special guts it takes to care, we dedicated our book to MR. BILL BRAZIS, MS. GAYLE MAYO, MR. BUCK MUMMA, MR. RANDY SHEAF- FER, MR. GARY WILSON, AND MR. DEAN ZANG.
