Geraldine Folke Hagberg 1905 - 1972 In Memoriam AT HOME WITH HER LORD Her hands are folded now to rest. Hushed are those lips so pure; Her spirit now among the blest. No pain or sorrow to endure. Her chair is vacant now and lone. Her steps no longer heard; Her voice is still--no song we hear, No longer gesture, look or word. She toiled for others day by day. With sacrifice her life was fraught; Early began her day of toil, And late her tired fingers wrought. May we who toil in life’s hard way, A message from her share; Live not for self nor selfish gain, But for Christ--and others care. -Author Unknown five ”To live in the hearts that one leaves behind is not to die

Dr. George Riley 1922 - 1972 Dedication We dedicate this yearbook to a man who meant a great deal to us and to this school. Dr. George Riley was affectionately known as our doctor. He was a man of endless dedication. Countless times he was called on to attend to injured Knight athletes. Innumerable hours he spent caring for the Lancers as they traveled around the country. He gave us so much of himself that we feel unable to ever repay our great debt to him. Anyone who knew Dr. Riley remembers his enormous enthusiasm for life. He could inspire us with his enthusiasm. He encouraged us to strive for goals higher that we thought we could then reach, and when we did succeed, no one was prouder than he was. By his example, Dr. Riley taught us that dedication, enthusiasm, pride, and achievement are more that just meaningless abstractions. We hope that the memory of Dr. Riley will inspire us to develope these qualities he so well personified. This dedication is to a man who, by devoting so much of himself to this school, became an undying part of it.

It seems facetious to remark that this yearbook is unlike any other since that fact confronts you as soon as you open it. In the beginning of the year we realized that yearbooks tend to follow a certain pattern year after year. Webegan by throwing out this pattern and building a new design from its remnants; when we thought changes would improve the yearbook, we weren't afraid to make them. This is why we have introduced so many changes, the foremost of which is the extreme verticalness of our book with the binding at the top. As far as we know, we are the first high school east of the Rockies to attempt this. Undoubtedly some people will object to it because it’s too hard to turn the pages . We hope that our yearbook is good enough that you won't want to turn the pages that fast. Most people don't realize the great effort that goes into the making of a yearbook. In addition to all the people you see in the picture above, I would like to thank our photographers Brian Lindquist and Gary Holt, who, despite their remarkable talent for misplacing things, are really quite good. Linda Church and Cindy Snyder, who were responsible for raising funds to finance this yearbook through candy sales,advertisements, and patronships, should be congratulated for a job well done. Also ourtypists, Cheryl Wilson, Vicki Peters, and Marla Groves, deserve our appreciation. 1973 Lance Staff Chris Lindell, Mrs. Norton, Carol Bar-low, Steve Edson (Editor-in-Chief), Trudy Abbott, Vicki Peters (typist), Lorraine Bundy, and Kim Lindell, Patty Lindell, Cheryl Wilson (typist), and Marla Groves (typist).
