Milburn Tony Kimball I'f1l'Illf,X' .S1rfw1'1'1sm' I1c1'1fm'-111-rlzzvf I imagine the reader, as he or she glances through the first few pages of This year's Mustang, may say to himself another year, another book, or something along that line of comment. But according to the staff, the reader is wrong if he starts reading the book with this idea in mind. This year the Mustang is not lust another annual. It is different from almost any other book-in form, in style, and even in some of the content. In the following pages we have tried to show our readers the story of the school year at Breck from September, 1948, to June, 1949. The months are introduced and explained by words and pictures. Some of the months are fewer in pages than others, but this may be ex- plained by the fact that more things happen during some months than during others. On behalf of the staff, I should like to thank Mr. J. J. Weston of the Weston Engraving Company, and Mr. Percy of the Lumberman Publishing Company, for without them this book never would have materialized. They gave us all the help that they could have and then even a little more. Then there is the group who provided the backbone of the book, the staff. My thanks go to Larry Lindsay, Bob Crosby, Chuck Converse, Tom Bodin, Sumner Young, Claude Cramer, Fritz Heger and Dick McNary for helping in the production of our I949 Mus- tang. Also the man who made our book possible from a financial standpoint deserves a great deal of thanks. He is Jack Smith, our business manager and most efficient keeper of funds. Most of all, the staff and I would like to express our most sincere and heartfelt thanks to Mr. L. R. Milburn, our advisor, who has developed our outstanding department of iour- nalism. Tony Kimball
