For those of you who do not know what this entails, it entails the preservation of our natural environment, wildlife, and limitation of unnatural disasters, through preservation. The Yearbook Staff has tried to present a contrast between the beauty of nature and the ugliness of pollution. Wc hope this contrast will create a startling awareness in all of you of the immediacy of our environmental problems. And we also hope that this awareness will lead to some kind of positive action on your part toward the alleviation of these problems. The Yearbook Staff Dr. George Creary Headmaster Dr. Crcary, our headmaster, is said to have been horn in Tliornton. But Dr. Creary says he was horn under a tree near Thornton and since the tree was cut do , he is not quite sure where he was horn. He spent his boyhood in the Linden area where his grandparents had settled during the gold rush. After graduating from high school in San Francisco, he returned to the Linden area, where he started teaching at ei,ghtecn years of age. Later, he worked for his bacliclor ' s degree and teaching credential at the University of California. He taught at the Houston School, north of Lodi and became an elementary school principal in Sonora and later held a similar position in Concord. He then returned to the University of California, where he earned his Master ' s Degree. He then earned his doctorate at Stanford. In 1931, Dr. Creary took the post of St. Helena High School Principal. In 1939 he became the Superintendent of Schools and high school principal in Antioch, California. During World War II he worked for the Air Ser ' ice Conuiiand in Sacramento and later in Dayton, Oliio. He returned to lodi and entered into business. He was the Lodi Rotary Club President at one time during those ears. In 1957 Dr. Creary went to Puerto Rico, where he was in business for fi c years. Later he was a mathematics teacher at tlie Lodi High School West Campus, and he then taught for two years at Saint Anne ' s of Lodi. Lie is now, for the second year, our Headmaster at Bidwell. We are proud and honored to have such a fine man. wlio has improved our school greatly. Dr. Creary was recently honored in Lodi for teacliing for fifty years, by rccci ing an Honorary. Life Membership to tlie Lodi High School P.T. A. during the recent observance of Founder ' s Day. Dr. Crcary has led an interesting and full life. However, it would be impossible to write it all down; so we have tried lo write a liricf suiiiiuary . lo gi ' e an inkling of his life. The pollution problem is a consequence of population. It did not much matter how a lonely American frontiersman disposed of his waste. Flowing water purifies itself every ten miles, my grandfather used to say, and the myth was near enough to the truth when he was a boy, for there weren ' t too many people. But as populations be- came denser, the natural chemical and biological recycling processes became overloaded, calling for a redefinition of property rights.

It makes no difference how deeply seated may he the irouhle, How hopeless the outlook, How muddled tlic tangle. How ' jreat (he mistake; A sufficient realization of lo e ill dissolve it all. If onl you could love enough you would be the happiest and most powerful being in the world. L ' mmet Fox Mich.Tel Hutchison SELF-MOTIVATION Amidst nature ' s beauty sits a young man. Inactive is he, For motivation is far, far away from him. Yet it dwells very, very near. The mind is its dwelling place. Containing the stimulus for physical motivation. Self- motivation opens the door. . . . The place where love and happiness is searched for. His body is his priceless key to this door. Yet self- motivation is ruled by the mind. In the absence of this cerebral element. He becomes as inert as an engine without fuel. Michael Hutchison 43 Doniinee Maiucr Thoughts of January IG, 1971 We ran to the top of the hill, scarchincr. o We drove to the city, Searching. We sat by the ocean. Searching. We hiked in the mountains. Swam in the river, And found ourselves- But forever searching. Dominee Maurer Kathy Waterman True Friendship ' Tis hard to find in life A friend, a beau, a wife, Strong, supple to endure In stock and sinew pure, In time of danger sure False friends are common. Yes, but where true nature links a friendly pair, The blessing is as rich as rare To bitter ends. You trust tnie friends. Not wife nor mother, Nor son or brother. No long experience allo s True friendship ' s sweet and supple joys. No evil men can steal the treasure; ' Tis deatli, death onl ' , sets a measure. Anonvmous 44 45 46 .-♦ ' ? .._ _ - : . V s i . The most difficult aspect of coming to an ecological under- standing of the world is in chang- ing one ' s own life style to conform to the new comprehension. Many of the values in the United States are in direct conflict with the dic- tates of ecology, and so, as Amer- icans, the task is all the more dif- ficult for us. Kenneth P.

Teach your family not to litter- from the car, sidewalk, campsite, at work, school or home. It costs 30( of your tax money to pickup each roadside beer can (This does not include disposing of it), and the average mile of highway has 590 such beer cans- and 770 paper cubs, 730 cigarette packs and 360 bottles. Motorists drop 15,000 pieces per mile per year in America. 2. DON ' T USE NON-DEGRADABLE PACKAGING. You, the consumer, have unlimited power to change the packaging industry. Do not buy or use any form of immortal plastics which are used once, then discarded. The immortal plastics include plastic bags and containers, styrofoam packaging and plastic beer can loops. 3. BUY ONLY DEPOSIT BOTTLES. Most of today ' s bottles are junked after one usage. As a con- sumer, buy only depost bottles and help to eliminate no-deposit bottles. 4. RE-CYCLE AS MANY ITEMS AS YOU CAN. Ttus applies not only to newspapers, but to a multi- tude of items. Various companies buy old no-deposit bottles or beer cans for l 2 } each. Other organizations have paper drives. If your clothes, toys, or furniture are old but usuable, don ' t junk them, but contribute them to some charitable group which can continue using the items. 5. .PICKUP LITTER. Pick up litter around your home, your yard, your office, your school, and your campsite. Pick up litter wherever you see it. Every little bit helps! 6. TEACH THE CLEANLINESS HABIT to your children from infancy upward. If children have the habit of picking up after themselves, they will not increase the per capita trash that experts are predicting by 1980. 7. STOP ALL BILLS which would cause unnatural disasters such as SST, and Alaskan Oil Pipeline bills. Write your congressman. Support ecology clubs which are fighting against such bills. 8. STOP WAR. War is a major polluter of any country. Defoliant spraying, dropping of napalm bombs, and abandoning of wrecked equipment causes the greatest pollution problems. 74 Students Not Pictured Sara Bacigalupi - Grade ;) Kc in Bowman - Grade 9 Diane Avers - Grade Karrisa Forstad - Grade S Kirk Wetland - Grade 8 John Bielefeld - Grade 7 Dout; Trotter - Grade 7 Judy Hoff - Grade 1 Kerry Dalton - Grade -J Frank Mills - Grade O 75 SPONSORS AGRICO - PAUL T.
