His Trip was financed in large part by efforts of the Northshore Education Associa- tion, students, and community efforts. In his second year as vice-principal, Mr. Tom McNutt filled in for Mr. Strand during his month-long Trip, and throughout the year advised the activities ofthe A.S.B. One of The most gratifying Trends being observed in recent months is concerned with people who are concerned in behalf of people. You, who are involved in building and developing The yearbook have been offered a wonderful opportunity To express your interest in The welfare of your peers by giving each and every one iust and equitable consideration. There is no element that gives greater satisfaction than a perform- ance by any one of us in the demonstration of good will in The most sincere manner. There is no greater goal in our lives as students, than the one we proiect in exemplary citizenship, and Through this attitude reflect our parents and friends. -Arne Strand, Principal There are wheels within wheels to keep a nearly IOOO-student school running smoothly.
