Greetings to Samara! As that time of year rolls around again for you people to choose your next year ' s courses, I am mainly conscious that we are finishing our first year on the credit system. I think it has been successful, and this strengthens me for the long bout with the new timetables. My best wishes go to the staff of ' Samara ' , and as always, to the grad- uating class, and to all of you. Joan M. Whi twill Alison Urie, Head Girl. Mrs. Aldous, Assistant Headmistress. Mrs. Whitwill, Headmistress. Nancy Gall, Senior Prefect. 2

This year our committee turned out much better than I in my inexperience had ever dreamed it would. Nancy and I as co -editors were amazed to find ourselves in a position where it was our great responsibility to turn out a yearbook. Luckily we had Mrs. Ald- ous continually lending a helping hand and a sympathetic ear while Mrs. Carter mourned over the state of our finances. This year we tried something different and decided to raise some money to help cover expenses. We sold chocolate bars with the co-operation of every class in the school until we all thought that we ' d never eat another chocolate bar again. In the end our profit turned out to be approximately two hundred dollars. We were very lucky to find a girl who was acquainted with yearbook procedures from her old school, and I know that if she hadn ' t helped us out, we would never have made it through the year. We extend our thanks to Mary Christie for her knowledge, help and endless patience over the shortage of meetings. Although enthusiasm was high this year, we still had trouble trying to get the girls to bring their cameras in. Many thanks to Joe Marlyniuk for his kindness in taking pictures for us. My best wishes to the next editor and her staff. I hope she will be fortunate enough to have staff as good as ours.
