Perhaps no more fiiiing subieci could have been chosen as ihe waich-word for 'rhis year's Annual. All of us realize ihai' in ihese evenhful days +ime is of ihe es- sence. As an Old Timer, how- ever, may I suggesi +hai we con- sider fhe word Timing insiead. Wiihouf Timing one is noi likely 'ro ac'hieve success in any field. How esseniial a proper sense of iiming is +o ihe acior, or singer, io ihe sporisman and aihleie, or io +he aviaior and bombardier! In all our social relaiions +oo one needs +o do fhe proper 'l'hing a+ 'rhe proper iime, which is whai we mean by iiming. Some of us, perhaps, have never ihoughi aboui' iime in ihis way. How's your fiming? C , ? , :axe-vs.. Beimonfs Vice Principals Time comes and goes, while ihe s+a+ely Campanile Tower proudly sfands guard over ihe girls and boys of Belmoni. Jusi' as ihe service flag of 34l siars ihai hangs in ihe TriH' Audi- +orium represen+s ihe 'l'ime +ha+ many siudenis have passed fhrough 'lhese halls, so ihe work of +he siudenis is symbolic of +he preseni' iime.
