Function This book serves as a reference for information concerning life in the period extending from September ”72” to June ”73”. Since life throughout the ages has been much the same in many respects, we must record our ideas, opinions, and actions in order to express how we differ from the generations before us. As the stage manager said in Thornton Wilder’s play, ”Our Town”, M ... marries N ... millions of them. The cottage, the go-cart, the Sunday afternoon drives in the Ford, the rheumatism, the grandchildren, the second rheumatism, the death bed, the reading of the will — once in a thousand times, it’s interesting.” Do our lives qualify as that ”one in a thousand”? Purpose We are formed and molded into unique human beings by many forces. Some of these forces are external social influences where others are intimate and personal experiences. This book will identify these forces which affect human life, thereby giving us a better understanding of oursel ves and those with whom we co-exist. THE PATRIOT, 1964, by Andrew Wyeth

Yearbook Format Thank You Procedure v Linger At the edge of the sea, life came to the land and comes still; comes to the man who rests there unhur¬ ried, who pauses to learn what be¬ longs there, to enjoy it for what it is. Island in Time” But where can the man rest now on this island? For now it is crowded and filled with worried and busy people who are constantly finding important things everyday and not Seniors — That’s us, kids! and as you leaf through the book you’ll notice se¬ nior pictures scattered here and there with no specific senior section to make you fall asleep. Only pretty faces smiling up at you as you enjoy reading our book. So enjoy! School iS ... Lite ierrn papers Format is really screwy. I mean, a yearbook is a yearbook, right? So, why try to mess them up with copy (stories, etc.) and creative photography, and people’s ideas? A yearbook is just a scrapbook of the I senior year, and nothing more. Well, people’s ideas and creative photography and copy all make a yearbook something more than just a scrapbook.” A yearbook isn’t just our senior key”, (Oskey). Our yearbook is a book encompassing 1972 and 1973 — the events and the people who affected our lives in this time span. We used a more casual format, breaking the book down into chapters which center around the various influences on our lives. Everything usually found in a yearbook is still here — the football, the cheerleaders, the seniors, but we added in the Olympics, the national elections, and any other special events which have affected us all. remembering about the matters which were once important. I’d like to say I’m not leaving as a principal because of you. I think you’re a great bunch of people. I honestly am leaving because I can’t accept certain decisions that are made by my supervisors. I cannot accept the fact that education is not the top priority in our town.” Man has his standards by which to live. I wanted to make Franklin what I always dreamed of; a friendly hap¬ py, efficient school. I have a very simple philosophy: It’s love and respect.” — But it’s not always possible and he finds himself subjected to pressures. I’m a controversial person I hate to be in the public eye. I guess I’m tired of being a big deal. I just want to be Al.” P Mr. Businessman Advertising is an important way of making money to finance the yearbook. We didn’t ask for charity when we sold the ads, so why treat the businesses just as sponsors? We feel merchants who take an ad out should get the coverage for which they’re paying. When you see an ad next to your picture; be glad it’s there. It’s people like them who are keeping the price of the book down.
