-472121101 NI've been working on the Annual, all the live long year, HI've been working on the Annual, just to pass the time away...U'. - This might well be the theme song of Leyden's l95O yearbook, although plans were in the making as far back as last May when the editors of the Annual were elected- Carol Ruby as editor, Chris Stellmach as her capable assistant, co-art editors Carol Kennedy and Joe Nittig Jerry Bray undertaking the job of photography editor, and Mark Prentice, with the help of Art Weiss, business manager. In August there were several meetings pertainingtb the question of the theme and the possibilities of ob- taining a hard cover. Then came September--the theme had to be definitely decided C25th Anniversaryl, dedication CMr. Moserj, and division heads and staff. Through the unceasing efforts of editor Ruth Anderson, with Jacquie Kuczon, Ida Lu Baker, Eileen Cwiklinski, and Joan Panek, the senior section met all their dead- lines and was the first section to go to press. The next section to be taken to the printers was homerooms, but editor Elaine Mower had her troubles. A few wrinkles were added to the then carefree foreheads of her and her assistants, Joyce Mootz, Norma Barnes, and Ramona Vandermier when some important pictures were lost, but all was well again after retakes were made, and their sections whizzed to completion. Elaine Snyder accepted the responsibility of the ever-bothersome faculty and admin- istration, and, with the help of,Gloria Bissell, Joyce Kahn, and Kay Cameron, suc- ceeded in coming through with a wonderfully well-done section. Bob Trumbull and Ronald Reder struggled with boys' sports, while their better halves, Delores Swanson and Elaine Harris, tackled the girls' athletics. Activities, always a problem, con- sisted of one experienced staff member, Donna'Ormerod, editor, and Shirley Fenhaus. Editor Wynne Hastings, Gerry Burke, and Jim Wade combined their efforts to produce one of the best music divisions Leyden has ever seen. Mary Ann Ruzecki and Pat Bakken gave their talent, time, and hard work to the club section, while Beverly Christian and Marlene Arbogast, after two elections, finally were able to give us our Senior Smoothies. Aith0U8h the SPOHSOFS, teachers, and other students outside of the regular staff who helped with much of the work are more than content to remain in the background their help is greatly appreciated. The Annual couldn't have gotten along very weli without the supervision of Mrs. A. Formolo, our literary advisor, and Mr. Earl Kung art advisor, Miss McLeod, photography, and we wouldn't have an Annual at all were it not for Miss H. Miller and her typists Eileen Cwiklinski and Alice Stayton. Artists Doris Kennedy and B. J. Cochran are two more of the energetic staff members who looked past their sticky fingers and pools of glue toward one of the high spots of the life of the 1950 yearbook-the Annual picnic. This affair tops off an entire year of hard work, worry, laughs, and much satisfaction for a job well done that go together to give you Leyden's 1950 HEag1e,N -2l

It tackles many school problems such as seating our students during basket- ball games, and it also helps raise money for certain funds such as the March of Dimes, the Heart Drive, Red Cross, and various other organizations. Every room has its own representative in the Student Council and takes part in its activities,
