(dadet ddirst cddleutenant tan ley idi ancid “Let all things be done decently and in order.”—Bible He doesn’t say much, but you can l c sure that his thoughts are worth more than a penny. Ever silent, ever serious, always sober; yet his gravity of manner and sense for good humor have won Stan many friends. Of all the members in the Class of '59, Stan Kozlak was undoubtedly the most serious about his work and about his future. His amazing ability to stick-at-it made him not only a good student but was also very apparent in the field of sport. A fine athlete, Stan participated in a wide variety of competitive athletics throughout his entire high school career. A three-year veteran of the varsity football, basketball, and track teams, he made a fine record for himself as a determined and enthusiastic sportsman. As a axaptain of the 1959 football team, he displayed fine leadership and won the rcsjxrct of everyone on the squad as a hardhitting, always driving ball player. It will seem obvious to all that knew “Kozy that he will, without a doubt, succeed in any endeavor that he might undertake in the future, if he continues to follow the standards of self-discipline and hard work that have been his trademark in the past.

George Johnson is generous with his time and energy. When he secs a job that needs to be done he doesn’t wait to be told but always works to get it done. He has given freely of his time to all extra curricular activities at Hrcck; he was editor of both the Brcck Mustang and Bugle, on all social affairs committees, in the Glee Club, and on the managerial staffs, just to name a few of his many duties, and yet he has maintained the highest academic record in the school. Often, in halls, you would find him with a group of younger students explaining geometry or Latin verbs; many times in study hall you could see him helping fellow seniors with their Trig or explaining the manual of arms to a first former. Although Cicorgc is one of the busiest people in the school's life he has still remained one of the friendliest and best liked. His pleasing personality, sharp wit, helpful nature and wonderful humor have made him someone who is a constant pleasure to be near. We know George will grow and mature into a person Brcck can Ik proud of for he personifies the great message, It is better to give than to receive. If him is Msdom and strength. Job 12:13

(Lalet 'Wjajor cjClclitliardt U| on walking clown the hall, one may notice a group of seniors anil underclassmen gathered around a tall, blond young man who is relating to them his current woman problems. You would hear such remarks as “Well team, “Hi (Jang, or they just all fall for me. Even a hopelessly near-sighted person would know that it was “Mighty-man Lichthardt off on another of his “woman benders. The history of this unusual senior has been one of leadership and accomplishment. Arlyn has been one of the highest students scholastically and still has found time to devote a major amount of his time to sj orts. His football and wrestling careers will long be remembered here at Breck. Arlyn was Cajuain of both the 59 football and wrestling teams. I don’t think there is any person who could lind fault in his leadership in these fields. His efforts were constantly directed toward the improvement of himself, his school, and the activities he participated in. In the military department Arlyn served in the capacity of Battalion Executive Officer. As far as the social activity of the class he was again in a position of leadership. By some of the underclassmen Arlyn was thought of as a hero. Actually he covered his accomplishments with a thick shield of modesty. When classes again resume next fall there will be indeed a problem to find someone to fill his shoes. Good luck to a great leader and sportsman! The opinion of I he strongest is ahvays the best. —Fontaine
