To the memoryof our friend, Marie Chipperfield Yelinek, who, following an attack of polio, passed away on December 13, 1950, westudentsof Corunna High School lovingly and re- spectfully dedicate this volume of the Corunna Sphinx. Marie, salutatorianof her class, was graduated from the Corunna High School in 1939- As school secretary of her Alma Mater for six years, she performed her various duties effi- ciently and cheerfully. No request of the pupils, from band- aging a child's hurt finger to distributing senior caps and gowns, was too insignificant for her careful attention. No simple greeting nor wistful questioning was ignored by her. During the days of Marie's illness, our deep friendship was evident in the anxious hush that permeated the halls, in the tears on worried faces, in many prayers expressed for her. Marie's life was truly one of unselfish service. As leader of a Girl Scout Troop, teacher of a children's Sunday School class, and president of a Y. W.C.A. business girls' club, she gave freely and joyously of her time, her enthusiasm, and her love for people in their upward striving. She was a loyal, helpful daughter in her parents' home, a wise and thoughtful mother to her seven-year-old daughter, whose father gave his life on Okinawa in World War II. We miss her courageous spirit, her efficiency, and her generous willingness to be helpful. Most of all we miss her smile and her words, What can I do for you? Our friend- ship can not be dissolved by death. It will remain forever in our hearts, and because of it, we are veryproud to dedicate the 1951 Sphinx to the memory of our beloved school secretary and sincere friend.
