THIS BOOK'S FOR YOU!!! What is the purpose of a yearbook? Is it just a dust collector on a bookshelf? Is it a book that is looked at once and thrown away? No, a yearbook is a treasure chest of memories. It is a book that should be looked at over and over again, not only for refer- ence, but also for many hours of enjoyment. The 1982 Oracle staff feels that a year- book should be a record of the year, but at the same time, should also be an exciting, interesting, enjoyable source of information. We have worked this year to make Oracle '82 this kind of book - a book that is truly for you. In putting together this book, we have tried to keep you always in mind. The pho- tographs have been carefully chosen, and the copy written, to interest you, and to encourage you to use this book both as a memory booster, and as a meaningful re- cord of your life during this very special year.

THE 1982 ORACLE EVERY YOU - students, teachers, staff, administrators, parents, people of the Gloversville community - deserve recogni- tion for all your contributions to Gloversville High School. We thank our teachers for their grueling efforts to edu- cate students. They put in at least six hours of teaching, and then another four or five hours helping kids after school, cor- recting papers, and planning subsequent day's work. Many teachers also devote hun- dreds of hours advising activi- ties and coaching sports! Our adminisrators capably handle the responsibility for the education and well-being of over 1200 students. Our staffs - office, cafeteria, and custodial - deserve credit for the large amount of time and effort they put in to keep our school's of- fices and cafeterias running smoothly, and our building and grounds in good condition. Our busy office secretaries handle all the details and cor- respondence involved in run- ning this school! Cafeteria aides try to ensure our peace and stability during lunch - a challenging job! After lunch, Mr. Baird and his men take over the lunch rooms, seizing every abandoned bag and wrapper. Top Using his time well.
