Those were the days to bear witness of our gratitude to them. We owe so much to many - - - So many, many persons have contributed to the growth and progress of this school that a complete list- ing would fill a whole volume. Starting way back in the antediluvian days of vocational education there were Arthur Dean, David Snedden, Skipper Allen, Charles Prosser, J. C. Wright, Lewis Wilson, Oakley Furney, Doc Hawkins, and of course the local school men who believed in the future of vocational education, Dr. Francis Wing, Dr. E. C. Hartwell, Dr. Robert T. Bapst, and Harry Good. Some of the labor leaders and industrialists who rocked the cradle of this school in 1910 are still with us and remain our staunchest friends as well as our severest critics. There are a host of incidents, little and big, which go to make up the history and spirit of Burgard. They are part of 47 years of humanity and education. Problems requiring urgent solution, arguments waxing keen, anecdotes which are funny only because one remembers the fun. Great and important events, mixed with the pleasant and the tragic. Shops where rats had to be chased out in the morning so pupils could come in. And pupils working in overcoats and boots because there was no heat. And athletic championships in sports no longer played in a modern school system. And, finally, the new building and a new era, but this did not stop our history or our tradition, or our tales of humor, pathos, or greatness. The fire in the auditorium in '37, or the nationally circulated ad in the Saturday Evening Post which quoted: -and in creating craftsman, Buffalo stands first. Whole airplanes were delivered to An early auto shop the school and installed four stories above the ground. In 1941 a nationwide broadcast eminated from one of our aviation shops highlighting our National Defense efforts. Life magazine's spread of pictures and the ar- ticle in the Encyclopedia Britannica Yearbook crowned our national publicity.
