Elmwood High School - Inscripta Yearbook (Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada)

Page 6 text:

EDITORIAL This is the fourth publication of Elmwood High’s Inscripta. Ever since the first issue our yearbook staffs have traditionally striven to make each issue superior to those of previous years. By at¬ tempting to correct the errors and omissions of past issues, we of the 1962-63 staff hope that we have produced an Inscripta of high quality. I should like to say that although my task was time-consuming and placed a great deal of re¬ sponsibility on my shoulders, I enjoyed every min¬ ute of it. The experience that this editing position has given me will undoubtedly prove to be in¬ valuable in the future, and the friends I have made I will cherish for many years to come. At times I found the task trying, tiring, and seemingly in¬ terminable. However, the final completion has been the most gratifying experience of my life. This Inscripta, which you are now reading was definitely not the work of any one person. On the contrary, it is the result of the combined efforts of the entire staff. Although this staff is comprised of a mere handful of the student body, the absence of any one member would have detracted from the quality of our yearbook. Although the staff mem¬ bers had conflicting viewpoints their common aim for a good yearbook overcame all obstacles. This has been an eventful year at Elmwood High School. Our minstrel show entitled “Way Down South” was a smashing success both musically and financially. Our “Reach for the Top” quiz team became undisputed champions of their city. We improved athletically and scholastically. The e- mergence of new clubs and committees and especial¬ ly the Pep Club has boosted school spirit to a new high. We have attempted to record as much as pos¬ sible of the past year and to give credit where it is due. I hope that in years to come when you look at your copy of the Inscripta you can say “Ah yes, I remember ...” as you fondly recall the events of the past. I would like to thank the members of the staff who so ably assisted me in the production of this yearbook. I would especially like to thank Jim Emler for his untiring aid and complete co-operation without which this yearbook would have been im¬ possible. I would like to thank those individuals whose interest prompted them to submit material to the staff. Finally I would like to express my gratitude to our printer “Hignell Printing Limited”. In closing let me impress upon you that this yearbook is dedicated to you, the students, of Elm¬ wood High School and especially the graduating class. Whether you enter business, continue your education at university or return to Elmwood High, may success be with you always. —Ian Thomson 4
