Dedication We, the Class of 1971, dedicate our yearbook to Werden Goodemoot, who has been our class advisor, for the past six years. Mr. Goodemoot has always been willing to give advice, time, and energy to help our class. He has tried to instill in us a desire to help ourselves. Although our ideas have not always agreed, we respect Mr. Goode- moot’s qualities of leadership, independence, individualism, patriotism and sincerity. We are happy to dedicate our yearbook to someone who was not only our teacher and advisor, but also our friend.

THE RECORD Presented by The Class of 1971 Roxbury Central School

In Memoriam ROLAND F. ROSS The passing of Roland F. Ross, better known as Doc” to students, faculty members, and the community, brought forth a deep sadness. After better than thirty years of service to R. C.S. as its physical education director and coach. Doc retired in 1962. His record for sportsmanship in physical education remains unsurpassed, as is testified to by his many citations. At the same time his won-lost percentage in varsity inter-schol- astic competition remains among the highest. Impressive as the facts above may be, they do not begin to tell the full story of Doc Ross. Typical was his ability to involve all students in intra-mural events and the physical education process. With Doc, sportsmanship at all levels was of primary importance. Doc's life was a model of dedication and integrity. We, at R.C. S., extend our deepest sympathies to the family of Doc Ross and join with them in mourning this great loss. We were saddened this year by the death of Mr. Charles Reed. In his duties as night custodian at R.C.S., Mr. Reed often helped us with our activities in a way that made us feel he cared. The children of Roxbury will remember the many times that he repaired their bicycles, a service he performed for over thirty years. We always will remember his kindness and helpfulness. CHARLES REED
