Business Manager Charles Taylor.................Photographer 2)edica tion The Senior Class wishes to dedicate this Annual in memory of our friend and classmate, James Ciminski, who died in January during his senior year. As graduation day approaches, in spite of all our last minute plans for the last big moment, we can not help but think of the empty chair on the platform--a chair we all hoped and prayed our classmate Jim would occupy. Jim was a boy of beautiful faith and high ideals, an outstanding student and friend; and we are proud that he was a member of our class.
