MILDRED BURNS GLENN BONES IN MEMORIAM In all great operations. whether it be mining, school or life, some of our fellow workers and buddies are lost. For a time it seems that the gap they leave in our crew can never be filled until we realize that the finest monument we can build to them is to take up and complete the unfinished work they have left behind. As we enter the glory hole of the old A. V. mine let us pause awhile and build a little shrine to our missing miners, in our memories.

PROLOGUE A school organization is similar to that of a mine. A school has its owners in the parents and tax payers. It has its superin- tendent; its chief engineer; its foremen; its office staff: its personnel department: and above all its work gangs, digging for the most precious thing of all—knowledge. . . . In building this annual it is the aim of the Yucca gang to present you with a guide to help you. in years to come, to look back with pride to the prosperous digging of '36.

DEDICATION In recognition of unfailing loyalty and service to all of us. we the miners of A. V. from the superintendent down to the low- est mucker, dedicate this book to Mrs. Grace Suter. Mr. G. A. Brooks and Mrs. Thelma Birch, our office crew. This expression of our appreciation only partially indicates the patience and coop- eration with which they have aided us in every endeavor. Always cheerful—always helpful—seldom thanked, this hard digging crew has our affection and gratitude.
