a woF' As juniors our class officers and spon- sors worked at developing an esprit de corps. Mr. Haaf contributed greatly to this spirit. In his mechanical drawing classes Mr. Haaf gave unceasing personal atten- tion to the needs of his many interested students. No matter what social activity the Class of 1964 sponsored, Mr. and Mrs. Haaf were always present. Here they rest at the Junior-Senior Party. MR. JOHN I. HAAF The Class of 1964 takes great pride in acknowl- edging an individual who has contributed greatly to our development. Although he specializes in industrial arts as a teacher, our dedicatee as a class sponsor has taken great personal interest in guiding our class through a variety of endeavors. His amiability, availability, and fine example have been qualities which have gained the general respect of all of us. It is with the deepest sincerity that we indicate our gratitude to such a helpful individual. Thus, we proudly dedicate the 1964 HEIRLOOM to Mr. John I. Haaf, one of our class sponsors. 21

— a wor tl of exp In this modern world it becomes increasingly apparent that maturity must be an integral part of everyday life. Thus we have chosen MATURITY as the theme of the 1964 HEIRLOOM. Perhaps a question enters your mind—“Why has the accepted structure of past yearbooks been changed?” We shall try to justify this change by answering that ques- tion. A 1963-64 television innovation has been the fore-showing of a dramatic se- quence from the story even before the title is shown. This technique has inspired, the editorial staff to break with tradition and present the theme first. This represents to us the essential achievement of our high school days. Through the use of this innova- tion we have attempted to make our yearbook unique as well as modern; and, perhaps, in doing so, establish a new tradition for future classes to follow. All the while our principal objective has been to demonstrate how our faculty, cur- riculum, and activities have contributed to the development of our maturity. Our ap- proach to this end has been to use each section of our yearbook to illustrate the chang- ing phases of our growth and what happens as a consequence—we become mature graduates.

Perhaps the most important of these is the smooth and efficient functioning of our Board of Education. The policies they formulate and the decisions they make are designed to guide us and to make us responsible young adults. These competent people not only survey the field of education, but they test new ideas in education in our school system. In general, and specifically as responsible citizens, the members of our Board of Education set the pattern for all to follow.
