It is fitting-lthat the class of 1971 has c osen to dedi- cate its Odyssey to Mr. Norman Silvey: four years a- go the class of 1967 showed equal wisdom by doing the same thing. Something said at that time bears repeating: 'Teachers lik e Mr. Silvey willbe remembered by us a 1 ourlives. Theyadd prestige to the teaching profession: like all men who love their work, they inspire us to be greater human beings in whatever life's wor we chose. Is there an n left to say? Yes. Mr.ytSl3vEy-l9'7l- is more than evert e out- standing teacherg so it shall always be because he is the kind of person who grows w i th the years, who never stops learnin , who meets the challenge ogchange with courage and conviction. H8 is the ind of man who gives generously of his very life's lood - -hours of precious time. After school hours he may be seen counseling stu- dents, advising colleagues, even practicing scenes for a play whose proceeds will aid so m e student with college expenses. But the word that says it allis inte rit . Inaworld where so fittlye of it is left, it is perhaps all we need to sa y about a man. Sham, metense. and humbug have no partin the Silvey code of ethics. The class of 1971 approp- riatelydedicates the Odyssey to adedicated teacher, Mr. Louis Ser io. His fascination with worgs and love of lit- erature is obvious to the students in his English classes. The study of subject matter is made exciting and chal- lenging. Whenaskedto commfent on Mr. Ser 'o's t e a c hi ng , senior stuff-ents offered these responses. His teaching is fantastic andfas a person he is won- der ul. Mr. Sergio has been a great instructor f or Advan- ced Placement English. Mr. Sergio has a uniqu e method of teaching which is entertainingg there ore mak- ing learning interesting. A teacher who 's instruc - tiveimaginationis surpassed o nly by his bridge hands at lunc . What most students do not know aho ut Mr. Sergio is the number of hours that he puts into preparation and grading of which is rewarded by a set of student papers containing evidence of learnin . In addition to chailengi ng students in th e classroom, Mr. Sergio quickly accepts student challenges to com- p e ti ti on in chess, bridge, hangman, OUT and various other tests of skill. In years to come these students who have had the b en efi t of 'instruction by Sergio will respectfully re - member the teacher and the man. 1 1 1 I Z 4 i l - -as--had

Mr. David Weaver Eac h year as spring ap- proaches, one fourth of our school population begins to realize what being a senior entails. A new life must be plan n e d , different goals 111ust be attained, old friends willbeleft behind, and new o Il es found.

There are opportu- nities within our democratic ,system for all of you to help solve domestic and world problems. No generation before you has faced bigger responsibilities or had note opportuii ty to change socie- ty a,1d the world If you be- comeinvolved and Cominit- ted :o the tasks before you, ynur generation can aceorn- piish much. Mrs. Marion Peterson proaches graduation, I felel a personal nostalgia as I re- member the last four years, yet anticipation as I think of the future for this class. It w as such a short time ago when your class arrived as a conglomerate mass of confusion and bewilderment. In this short period of time I have watched you grow in- to self-assured, competent young men and women. It has been a pleasure to have served you in your high school years. lwill not have the opportunity to see each of you individually, so let m e take this opportunity to e x ten d my best wishes for your future successes. All of us at Edgewood let you go w ith the best wishes and a confident hope for your fu- ture. Mr. John Teresa TheClass ofl97l has been the least narcissistic of any group to plod through Edge- w ood . It is something for whichthere should be a col- lecti ve pat on the back. The demands of societyhave been exemplary, has at least not been the worst cultural lag since Gailileo was put under house arrest. Living as you have been a w a y from totally narrow, individual concerns, you pre- sent seniors sound unaffected, and you look real. The spe- cificsarehandyenough. Not terribly long a go , at every highschool, most of the irls c arri ed hairspray in t eir purses, and ten minutes be- fore the end of every class w as given over to a partial overhaul of br o w s, lashes, li ps and birdsnest hairdoss The present female popula- tion has untortured hair that moves, and the majority of faces are authentic, not masks. This acceptance of the physical self without the ordeal of artifice coincides w ith a wider perception of what's going on in the world, not just ont ie campus. Boys too are less narcissistic. I can not imagine a 1971 sen- ior male buylnga wood plaid shirt at Sears and bootlegging a Pendleton label into it, as was the rage one unmention- able year. The present sen- wantshislabelsstraight, and more Often than not, will see things for what they are, ra- ther than believing everytling he or she is told. . . Bot the problems and the opportuni - tiesof living have been Olll there for a long time, but l b eli e ve the Class of 1971 perceives the111n 111ore realis- tically than any previous EHS class. May that perception, translated into effort, re- ward us all. Mrs. Ruth'Geis
