Mr. Sid Ratzlaff, Superintendent, world history, office, honor society adviser Mr. Ratzlaff, in completing his fifth year at Crane, has seen the school through its tragic 1967 fire, the subsequent housing of students in many temporary quarters and at long last, he has felt the satisfaction of seeing the student body spend its first full year in its new buildings. At the time Elgin, a larger school, asked him to be its superintendent, he had realized one of many accomplishments at Crane: Crane is no longer struggling under the irregularity of temporary housing, but indeed, is well on its way to be- coming one of the outstanding small schools of the state. These are moments to remember. The Faculty and Students will have Mr. Carson Valentine, vice-principal, algebra, geometry, junior high general math, track coach, freshmen adviser Certainly if Mr. Valentine has any season more successful in track an- other year, it will be winning at state. This past season has given him and his men many moments to remember. He has been a willing and conscientious contributor to the annual-- complying with any request which has been asked of him. The staff is grateful for his help. Well informed in public affairs, he is sure to interest his listeners on any current topic. 8
