DIQITZICJ' PRINCIPAL Many of us have not had the opportunity to know you, Dr. Crell, this is your first year at Eden. Those of us who have met you know the time has been all too short. Your life has been interesting and varied. From Polaski, Pennsylvania where you were raised, to the University of Pittsburgh where you earned your Masters and Doctorate degrees in 1957 and 1963, to Oak Park, Illinois, to the American School ofthe International School of the Hague, Netherlands. Your life and travels are enviable. You say that Eden is different from the Hague school, since the students and teachers were al- ways changing at the Hague. No traditions were built up. It is different in Eden, but we hope you will find the change pleasant. We wish you the best for the future. On student power, one of the pressing issues of today, you say that it does have a place in the high school. I feel that there is an area, a realm, where the students ought to be involved. This role should be pretty well spelled out so students and administrators understand it. Students ought to raise pertinent questions from time to time and ask for consideration of mat tersfi We leave, having spent too little time with you. Again, we wish you continuing success at Eden.

A i ' s MRS. l.0RET'l'0 PRINCIPAL Walking into your office, we found you both busy and friendly. Soon, Mr. Fregelette, we came up with an interesting interview. The natural place to begin was with your education. You attended North Collins Central School, received your Bachelors and lVlaster's degrees from Canisius College, and did graduate work in Administration at U.B. You were then certified as a Secondary School Principal and Su- perintendent of Schools. We find that you played basketball, baseball, and soccer in high school and continued playing soccer with the US. Army in Germany. But there was always your goal: to find a vocation in which I could work with people. Once l became involved in education . . ., I did wish to become a principal. We questioned ourselves as to why you have gained such unquali- fied respect from the student body. Perhaps it is because you worked in the ranks, so to speak: a social studies teacher, AVA advisor, Junior High School Principal, and now principal of ECS. Perhaps it is be- cause you have a way of making us feel at ease in your presence. What- ever the reason, we are confident that you will continue to be a suc- cessful administrator. We asked your opinion of hippies. Your reply was: The hippies . . . are . . . a product of today's society. Hopefully this will serve as a warning . . . of the need to turn from a society dominated by material wealth and double standards and re-establish high ethical values. We thank you. lVlr. Fregelette, for giving us your time and experi- ence during the past few years.
