MR. ELLSTROM We, the seniors, recognize you os one of the outstanding teachers in the school. Your contributions in the classroom and those you have made as a di- rector in the school plays alone reflect the great talent that you have passed on to others. We would like to thank you in a special way, and this is why we have singled you out for this page. MR. DIEFENDORF The dedication and work that you must put into your job are reason enough that we, the seniors, would like to put you on this special page. Your jobs of student council advisor and teacher are more than one normal teacher can handle, but you go one step further and coach. We recognize that these jobs are handled by you year after year, and realize what an outstanding job you really do. MRS. PASTO You are one of the best examples of why people become teachers. The suc- cess you have obtained teaching is equalled only by the success you have talking to the students. The talent for teaching is exceptional enough, but also having the ability to talk to students as adults is something only a few people have. We, the seniors, would like to thank you by placing you on this page. MRS. WALKER You, as a teacher, have come in contact with more of us than any one single teacher. You have more than contributed just your whole knowledge, to help us prepare for the world awaiting us. It's simply your teaching and under- standing that cause the Senior Class of 1972 to set you aside with our four other favorite teachers. 5
