lt is the duty of all school publications to keep their respective student bodies enlight- ened as to various activities and special events that occur during the school year. The twin headlights of the Cumnock Zephyr, namely: the Courier and the Maroon and Gold, Cast their illuminating light upon the rails enlightening the passengers as to the present and future happenings. The Courier is the bi-monthly student paper, the Maroon and Gold is the year book. Whether athletically, academically, socially, dramatically, or eatingly minded, Cumnock students all have their particular hangouts . The tennis courts furnish recreation for those who crave exercise of the limbs, the cafeteria furnishes food for those who live to eat g the auditorium is a meeting place for follow- ers of Shakespeare, et al, the study hall and Solarium can both be classified as academic- social meeting places, as well as the courtyard, for both students and classes are found there.

MAROON AND GOLD STAFF Like all Annual staffs, we have had our ups and downs. Among the ups have been the consistent efforts of a few of the members of the staff, among the downs have been the failure of students to get the ad- vertising so enthusiastically promised at the first of the year, failure to come through with copy and snapshots, and a general let the other fellow do it attitude. At last the copy is done and the dummy is finished. The ma- terial is ready to go to the printer and be made into a book. We who have worked so many days and nights on the preparation feel the thrill of cre- ative achievement that must come to all those who have anything to do with the making of books. Now, proud of the effort it represents, and con- vinced that we are going to be proud of its appearanceg but at the same time conscious of the unavoidable errors and omissions-we offer it to you in the hope that you will find it a storehouse of happy memories, today and in the years to come. EDlTOR'S MESSAGE The Cumnock Annual, Maroon and Gold, was started in September, l934, The staff and l had but one object in view - to produce a book worthy of the students, the faculty, and the name of Cumnock. The task was not easy, as a school of this size is limited in a thousand ways. The actual organization and work on the book was directed by Mrs. Woody. Because of the inexperience of those of us on the staff, the greatest part of the work has fallen on her. She is to be congratulated and thanked for her patient and untiring effort in preparing this book. l also wish to thank the staff and those others who have given of their time and talent to this student publication. l hope that you will get as much pleasure out of read- ing your Annual as we have had in planning it.
