ALMA Dear to us always, This school and all its walls, Thou'lt ever with us stay, Fair E. F. A. When we are gone from thee, Still thou shalt ever be, Fairest on land and sea, Dear E. F. A. 4 ATER Our hearts may well grieve, So soon to part from thee, But dear old school, believe, We're true always. True hearts and friends well-met Thy charms are with us yet, Nor can we e'er forget Fair E. F. A.

VICTOR IMPECIATO MARTIN HARRIGAN DEDICATIU Through their abilities as competent social studies teachers and football coaches, UVic. Impeciato and Marty Harrigan have both imparted knowledge to their students and advanced the prestige of our football team. Largely because of their assiduous efforts, our team was able to win the 1951 Southern Tier Conference football title. Besides fulfilling their athletic responsibili- ties, Mr. lmpeciato acting as head coach and Mr. Harri- gan as assistant, have inspired good sportmanship and school spirit among the students. The class of 1952 feels honored to dedicate its yearbook to these two men, not only because of their outstanding achievements in sports, but also because of their sterling qualities of leadership. 3

The Senior Annual commemorates the activities of the past four years of schooling. For the most part, these years have been joy- ous and carefree. They have been a gift to you by parents who have provided for your needs, so that the days of your youthn might be happy ones. They have been a time of opportunity provided by a democratic society that desires each individual to develop his potentialities to the full. In this sense, you have had the time of your livesf' But the good things of life do not come to a close with graduation from high school. DR. HELMKA P Throughout our high school years, Dr. Albert Helmkamp has been not only the ad- ministrator directing the school as a whole, but also a personal friend promoting the best interests of the members of the class of '52, As an educational adviser in our senior year, and a counselor in all of our social affairs, Dr. Helmkamp has contributed much toward making these four memorable years thc time of our lives. True, responsibilitieswill increase with ma- turity, and life will show some of its sterner aspects. But the opportunity to grow and to share in an ever-widening vista will remain. If you face the future with zest and hope, if you play your part bravely, the great adven- ture of living will provide in new and unex- pectedrways the joy of achievement. In this sense, may you often experience the time of your lives. 1416011 E. J!
