BIG FOUR FATHERS' ASSOCIATION Vice-President EDWARD DUNBAR Secretary W1LL1AM P. KINSLEY Treasurer HERBERT P. SPARKS President ROBERT F. BARANDON 'Tis a happy thing To be the father unto many sons. The Big Four Fathers is an organization which has rendered much service to Olney, our school, and community. The group is composed of fathers, neighbors, and friends who have performed invaluable service to us. The Big Four Fathers have, since their organization in 1925, aided us in establishing our athletic field and library. More recently they have established a fund for a scholarship which is awarded each semester. Thus, a member of the class of Iune 1951 will be counted among the many recipients of The Four Fathers good work. For this aid and for all the rest we wish to express a most sincere Thank youf, 22

ALUMNI Sponsor President MR. WEILER KENNETH ARMBRUSTER Vice-President MARGARET MEvEs Recording Secretary IRMA STALP ' Corresponding Secretary PATRICIA NELSON Treasurer EDITH SEHL Lfillumrzi Association Welcome ever smiles, And farewell goes out sighing. When a student becomes an alumnus of Olney, there is always a desire to re- tain the friendships of those with Whom he has associated during his stay in high school. This is made possible through our Alumni Association. Besides keeping old acquaintances, the association offers many opportunities to make new ones. Among the activities you will find dances, boat-rides, outings, and in the summer, swims. Moreover, the Alumni Association has a great interest in the activities of the school itself. It presents outstanding students with awards at graduation, and trophies for sports. If you are active in sports, there are various Alumni teams which you may join. On the whole, the Alumni Association promotes the lasting friendships which were begun during the years at Olney. 21

So shines a good deed in a naughty world? Our Mothers Group of Olney High School does many good deeds that shine throughout our school and community. Our mothers and friends who are inter- ested in education, in community life, in helping the school, and in keeping con- tact with their adolescent oltspring have been Shakespeare's candle softly throw- ing its beams to light us on our way through Olney. In recent years they have contributed generously to a major charity drive each term. They have helped to buy our choir and band uniforms, they contribute to the student welfare scholarship. This group works in such a quiet, unpublicized way that we seldom hear about it. But we do know that we have this organization and that it is ready to be a mother to the school as the members, individually, are mothers to us. We know it is a working part of Olney that we can not and will not forget. 23
