W-'M...4 OUR SCHOOL is a place where the teachers and administrators guide as well as supervise the students. Through them, our outlook on life is broadened and their influence is reflected in our attitudes and actions. What we are now and what we will make of our lives depend on us, but without the patient guidance of our teachers it would be difficult to see the way clearly. Throughout our lives we will remember our teachers, our principal, our superintendent, and our board of education. We hope that their memories of us will be enriched by our gratitude to them. Permits and problems keep Mr. Newell, Mrs. Kuhn, and Mrs. Rychener busy at the oflice counter in the moments before the bell. A L tw

We remember Mr. Robrock often at the keyboard. For church organ or dance music, he had an un- usually keen sense of harmony and rhythm. He was trained in music, but complained that the notes got in his way and he usually played without them. He conducted a B.H.S. dance bandfor eight- een years and always helped with school dances and the Minstrel Show. All of Mr. Robrock's hobbies he performed with scientific excellence. He trained student photogra- phers for years, many of whom went on into techni- cal advancement with it. Three of his students won national prizes. He is shown here with Maurice Thierry in 1949. When the new wing of our school was built in 1939, Mr. Robrock designed the science laboratory as part of his Master's degree work at Colorado U., and it was one of the best of its time. Science was, to him, a philosophy of continual curiosity about the universe we live in. He is shown here with students in 1952. Humble about his many accomplishments, Mr. Robrock indulged somewhat in pride when he re- ceived his private pilot's license at fifty-one and two years later his commercial license. He loved taking students up in his Aeronca and estimated that he had given about seven hundred people their first ride in a plane. In 1953 he was honored at the Wright Me- morial banquet in Washington D.C. for his work in aviation education.
