In Memoriam I am positive Miss Smith would not have us mourn her death, but rather find inspira- tion and guidance from her life. — Mr. Larry Youse, friend and colleague. A wise man once said that, ' Gratitude is the heart ' s fondest memory. ' Speaking for the alumni of 1969, I can say, ' Miss Smith, an individual dedicated to education, to you we are grateful. ' — Miss Linda Johnson, Class of 1969. ... she was more than a teacher; also a friend, one who w as always active in school ac- tivities as well as outside activi- ties. I am sure when I say we are indebted to her forever, I speak for the entire senior class. — Leon Mazurie, President, Class of 1970. Maria A. Smith June 23, 1928 - October 15, 1969

' This man was our friend The best and most profound way to thank a man to whom we are indebted is a simple one; we will dedicate a chronicle of our life with him, to him. He gave to us a sense of responsibility, which in itself is no easy task. For this we are grateful. This man was our friend; a person to whom we could turn for guidance and help. Although he sometimes made us uneasy, it was the uneasi- ness of truth; the realization that we were far from perfect and yet had much to offer to each other. He taught us in his very own, perhaps sarcastic, way to be individuals; to find our own path in life. He was always there. For this and many other things, we dedicate our yearbook, the Tracer of 1970, to a man in- deed worthy, MR. LARRY YOUSE. He Was Always There. a person to whom we could turn
