DEDICATIO Mr. John Searle entered a highly honored profession-teaching. Once upon a time in Ramon, Oklahoma, there was a boy who was very active in student govern- ment, in fact, he was elected President of his senior class. The boy grew up, and being a time of great conflict, he entered the Air Force where he served as a B-29 and B-17 gunner during World War ll. After the War the young man re- turned home and continued his formal education at Oklahoma A and M. Later he went to Chico State College and Oregon State College where he acquired his B.S. Upon graduating from college, this man, Mr. John Searle, entered a highly honored profession -teaching. For five years he taught at various high schools in Roseburg, Oregon. ln his fifth year of teaching, Mr. Searle went to Arroyo, a new high school in California. He worked in the ln- dustrial Arts department, helping students acquire the technical knowledge needed to succeed in business. One day, Mr. Searle was asked to become the Director of Activities, and he said yes. From that time on, hours of his time and the time of AOP students was spent in preparing all the paper work involved in the running of school ac- tivities. ln his' additional position at Arroyo, Mr. Searle became the advisor to student government and helped to make it one of the best in the dis- trict. The financial situation of the Student Body was his concern, the counting of money, keeping accurate books, and planning fund-raising func- tions. Student Body officers worked closely with Mr. Searle in carrying out their ideals and he al- ways instilled them with further inspirations. For all the problems, planning, and prayers Mr. Searle has gone through during his half a decade as Director of Activities and his seven years as a member of the Arroyan faculty, we dedicate this yearbook to him. The activities pic- tured in this Arroyan stand as a monument to the dedicated and successful task Mr. Searle has done. Next year Mr. Searle will be the Dean of Boys at the new Marina High School. Their gain is our loss.
