 IN MEMORUM MR. MURLYN CONDE• As we consider leaving A.C.S., our thoughts turn to many happy hours spent in the senior home room where our former class advis'or, Mr, Conde', was always ready with a bit of friendly advice or encouragement when it was needed. Let's go, seniors, we've got to put this over! is a phrase which was often heard in room 214 when the class was planning a dance. Such encouragement is invaluable when you are feeling low. Mr. Murlyn Conde' was always ready with such a word. Teaching was more than a job to Mr. Conde'. It was his whole life. Every student in his class was a personal friend and problem to him. With these fond thoughts we dedicate this page of 1952 Memoirs to the memory of one whose leadership has been an outstanding factor in our high school lives and to one who will never be forgotten as a very dear friend. MR. LAURENCE BARTZ When we, the class of 1952, think over the past four years; Mr. Laurence Bartz is among the teachers who stand out in our minds as special. He was always willing to help us with booklet covers for senior projects and it was Mr. Bartz who began work on this year's annual. Helping others was one of his main objects as a teacher and much of his time was devoted to this virtue. If he had been with us longer, he would have carried out his generous philosophy by doing much work on the 1952 edition of Memoirs . As in previous years, he would have done much more than was necessary to make our yearbook a success. Perhaps it is inadequate, but we wish to offer this small portion of our book as a tribute to a nan who was one of Andover Central School's finest faculty members. WILLIAM GORSUCH A page in a high school yearbook seems insufficient to offer in memory of one who died fighting for his country. If William Gorsuch had not answered the call of duty, he would be with us today working toward our mutual goal. He was destined to join the United States Marine Corps and give his life, the price of stopping aggression in Korea. Vie wish he could be here with us now and enjoy our triumph at completing a job,which we hope, was well done. However, he has done his jot well and it is with warm thoughts and humble gratitude that we set this page of Memoirs aside as tribute to Bill Gorsuch, who gave his life so that we might live in peace and freedom. BEVERLY HACKETj? Losing Beverly Hackett from our midst in our sophomore year was a great blow to us all. She was a person whose fine character anu pleasing personality made her a friend to every one. Even when others were not so cheerful, her ready smile was always outstanding. Bev was an active member of her class and servea as president during her last year with us. :he was also a member of the student council and jlee club. -ven though she is not among the graduating class, we carry her memory in our hearts as vie '1.. c.ecicate this page to Beverly Hackett.
