Girard College - Corinthian Yearbook (Philadelphia, PA)

Page 25 text:

The GIRARD news began the year covering the M-Day protests with a fervor few would have an¬ ticipated a year ago. Editors Joe Pillo and Fred¬ rick Clayton not only told ir like it is,” they also managed to escape the carping scrutiny of censor¬ ship. With an altered lay-out, new balance in re¬ porting, and a continuing Letters to the Editor controversy, the NEWS aroused the interest of everone, but most particularly of the Seniors.

FRANK SIEFERT student center Experimentation was the theme of Student Center’s activities this year. Innovations such as the hot dog counter and the soda fountain provided the staff with ideas for future improvement. Due to several mid-season personnel changes, the center lacked the organization necessary to make the year a complete success. We hope that on the basis of our successes and failures next year’s staff, with the help of Mrs. Oritt, will make the center an im¬ portant part of Girard’s social life as well as a profit-making” organization. — 20 —

If this year’s CORINTHIAN attempted to create an unusual approach to the year book, then, hope¬ fully, the 1971 edition will be a continuation. The ideas begun by the staff of the 1970 book have been borrowed, at times enhanced, sometimes sim¬ ply confused, and frequently improved. Perhaps it is the nature of an annual to reap con¬ fusion; perhaps it is the nature of the staff to en¬ gender that confusion. Nevertheless, with a multi¬ tude of false starts, too many promises, and a fun¬ damental belief that somebody will do it,’’ the 1970 CORINTHIAN has been completed. At times, faced with either lethargy or a dearth of material, the staff looked towards the gloomy pro¬ spect of not producing a yearbook or simply pre¬ senting a list of those seniors graduating (and where they might be found). While such a di¬ rectory may have had a pragmatic approach, it would not have had that inestimable quality from which memories are taken. Since few others seemed interested in the final re¬ sult, it is not so much that the editors should be held responsible for what appears here; rather, it is to their credit that they completed what is here at all.
