CLASS OF '57 COLORS: Black and White FLOWER: Red Carnation SPONSOR Miss Joycelyn Blakkolb This above all: to thine ownselfbe true, and ir must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. This favorite quotation from our master teacher will remain with us for all time. Shehas given un- seliishly of herself--the many long hours spent with declamatory students--the strain of whipping a play into shape--meeting with a Pep Club committee. Many and varied are her responsibilities. Yet she is always willing to take a few minutes to talk to a student who has a problem. And so as we leave the hill, rna.ny of our fondest memories are of the English classroom where we learned a great deal more than grammar and litera- ture. She shared with us her wonderful philosophy and we say, Thanks, Miss B1akkolb. CLASS OFFICERS President, .Tack Vice-President, Leo Secretary, Brad Treasurer, Larry Sanger

SENIOR WILL Being of not so sound minds and not so sound bodies, but pretty good looks, we, the senior class of 1957, bequeath these articles to those we leave behind. To the faculty we leave our blessings and good will for success in handling the future rock 'n rollers of R.C.H.S. To the dear Juniors, we will you our ability to stay out of trouble, good looks, term papers, pencil stubs, seats, and anything else they might find lying around. To the Sophomores we bequeath our brains, ability to roam about the school house, and ability to get along with the fixture Seniors next fall. To the bashful Freshman class we bequeath the schoolhouse map which shows the shortest routes to all points in the schoolhouse, track, football field, and gymnasium. We hope this chart will aid you in avoiding any teachers who sometimes lurk around the corners -- especially note how all paths lead away from the office.
