Behind every prosperous nation, there is a great President. Behind every great man there is a woman who has encouraged him to endeavor, and behind every successful organization is a great leader who helps to uphold and maintain the standards of that organization. As President of the Parent-Teacher’s Association, you have stood for the ideals, standards, and traditions of E. E. Smith. While you served as President, band uniforms were purchased which en- abled the “Marching 100” to perform, a beautiful organ was paid for, football jerseys were secured, and other useful projects were done to help our school. Others worked diligently with you to achieve these goals, but recognition cannot be given to everyone. Through your leadership and concern, the students here at E. E. Smith have been able to enjoy the things that would add to the curriculum of any school. We know that without your help the days we have spent here could not have been as happy and enjoyable. We hope that in years to come there will be others who will show just as much interest as you have in youth. To you, Mr. William Swann, we the members of the 1968 class, dedicate this edition of the Smithsonian. With deep esteem and appreciation, we say to you “thanks” for helping us to love those cher- ished days. IN GRA TEFUL RECOGNITION . . . MR. WILLIAM SWANN

-MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR— As you leaf through the pages of the Smithsonian, it will probably be just another edition, but to those of us who worked on it, it represents a year of hard work, determination, exasperation and sometimes en- joyment. It ail began in September when all of the staff members were willing and eager to work. Carefully, they posted pictures of time, date, and places for re- questing needed information. Surely this year, the mistakes of past years could be avoided. But some- how, many of the same mistakes were made and a few new ones were added. There was, for instance, the matter of those who could not arrange to be at the designated places to take pictures. The photographers did not realize that two or three weeks later was too late, and that their pictures could not be stuck just “some place in the book.” The yearbook staff members-” they who began to work so eagerly-” began to find excuses for not at- tending meetings. “The library, they said, took too much of their time.” The teachers, they said, gave long assignments.” All too often the Editor-in-Chief and Co-Editor and four or five more members found themselves working alone. Now we aren’t complaining. There were always those students who cooperated and there was always our adviser to keep our spirits up when our morale was down. Finally, the book was off to the press, but the job was not done yet. Proofs had to be read and reread, and the book eventually had to be circulated. Now that the job is all behind us, we feel very proud of ourselves, and feel that this SMITHSONIAN shall be the best ever published in the history of the school. Today it may be just another yearbook, but tomor- row, and in the future it will become a treasured pos- session, for in it we will find a year of life that can never be recaptured except in our memories. Byron Simms Editor in chief
