C z£ CDiaL ami The year 1936-1937 has been crowded with novel experiences. We have moved from our home building into a spacious new edifice that is the “last word” in modern equipment. Our program of activities has been absorbing, but we would have been bewildered, had we not been frequently guided by the familiar voice from the microphone in the principal’s office: “May I take this time to make a few announce- ments?” The clock on the classroom wall and the voice floating out of the loud speaker have be- come symbols of our daily life. Every period of the day has emanated from the public ad- dress system; in fact, it has seemed endowed with some magic force that has stirred our imagination. For that reason, we are using the radio broadcasting motif for the framework of our yearbook. The cover, the design at the top of each page, and the arrangement of the inserts represent the theme around which our school record is built. The opportunity of editing an Annual usually comes but once in one’s high school life. We have appreciated this responsibility and have tried to give to our unseen audience a simulated radio broadcast, as it were, of the activities, organizations, classes, and all the other varied interests of the students and the faculty. We hope that as the dial turns forward in future years, the 1937 Whirlwind Annual of Albany Senior High will recall many pleasant memories of the first year in the new building. 'Hie yearbook edited by our predecessors, the staff of 1936, was awarded “First Class Honor Rating.” As a result of that recognition, we are privileged to display on this page the insignia of our membership in the National Scholastic Press Association.
