This year’s faculty members have come to our school from all sections of the country, gathering together here in order that they might give us an opportunity for better learning. As advisors of various organizations and classes, and as student counselors, they have met and become friends of many student body members with whom they would have had no contact except in ordinary classroom studies. By aiding us in our diffi- culties, and by helping us on our way to success, they have played a vital role in the formation of the citizens of tomorrow. We have need to be very grateful to all of our teachers, and we ought to be very proud of the -interest which has been shown by them toward student activities. The excellent content of our 1956-57 faculty gives us reason to be well pleased. MR PAUL SNIDER. M. Ed Woodworking, Mechanical Drawing General Mechanics MR ClYDE TOWNSEND.

On page one we are given a warm welcome, a vision of young girls and boys bowing and scraping to mighty sophomores. We recall the reek of onions and how we diligently carried the books of those lordly sophomores. As time passes on, we find some magnificent individuals ordering the insignificant little freshmen through their paces! The pages seem to fly by as we find ourselves eagerly awaiting Karen's announcement that our class rings have arrived. At last the fatal day was here, and we proudly showed our gleaming rings to all the world. The Cannibal Queen's invasion from the Solomon Islands enlivened our dull lives, and then, we finished off this happy year with our wonderful Junior-Senior Prom, Blue Pacific Moonlight. Nearing the end of our book, we come upon our glorious senior year. Busy as leaders and workers in many clubs and organizations, we still had time to make our Senior Ball, “Red Sails in the Sunset, one of the best ever. Johnson, Mary Hilda Solutotorian Missing from our book is the annual senior class play, since with the changing of the curriculum by the addition of a drama class, one of the old traditions, the presentation of class plays, came to an end. With baccalaureate and graduation bringing our memories to their climax, we slowly close the leaves of our book of time, with the recollection of practices, announcements, and strains of the traditional Pomp and Circumstance. This is the end of four of the happiest and most unforgettable years of our lives, that have trained us for our future, whatever it may be. Yes, this is a time never to be forgotten, but to live on in our memories forever.
