To capture this year's events and keep them in a book for all to leaf through and smile over is the purpose of this yearbook. It is a memol'Y book- really. We h0D2 you, the reader, will enjoy reminiscing with us about Cresco High School in 1956-57. We'll remember the familiar ring of Well, I just thought I'd bring that up, things of that sort, and six of one and a half dozen of the other. --- the two Conference champion football teams he coached---his ability to talk on any subject---his Hereford victory tie---the famous red and black jacket he wore---his classes in Economics, American History and Sociology h1 work as the Athletic Director hi ability to inspire his athletes with fight ing spirrt With these fond memories he Spartan Staff of 1957 is pleased to ded rcate this annual to you Mr Matson for the helpful guidance you have given the students during the six years you have been at CH S Deducahon bf f Ill in fill..

Nothing like a drink of water to perk one up afterahard school day. CONNIE DAVIS wonders where in the locker her govt-rnmenrbook can be, IOANNE NELSON breathes a sigh as she leaves the school. How often she's gone through these doors! SHIRLEY HUDSON pon- ders that remark by the teacher--and plans her evening schedule. As we look back at the routine school day, we can see them doing the same things we all did. CAROL KRATZ is sure that material for her re- search paper must be somewhere on these shelves.
