A Very Special Person . . . Dedication is the most appropriate word for this man. It embodies the total reelings that he has had for the Senior Class for the past four years when he began the task of sponsoring it. His enthusiasm and hard work has led the class through four Spirit Week competitions pro- viding the motivation to walk away with the victory jug every time. His support during dances and fund-raising activities has enabled the Senior Class to become a success. Through his organization and direction of both the Variety Show and Smorgasbord, the costs of Commence- ment and the Prom were greatly deferred. His efforts to formulate a feasible plan for a class trip only help to support his continuous dedication as a class sponsor. After four years of happiness as well as frustration, the Senior Class has become very close to Mr. Diorka. This same perseverance and determination have given Mr. Diorka a winning track team. As head coach of Great Valley ' s track teams, he built them into champions. Spring and Win- ter track have placed high in the Ches-mont standings under his direction as a coach. Mr. Diorka ' s Cross Country team rose to the top of Ches-Mont in 1975 and continued on to Dis- tricts and States both years. This record is a credit to his coaching ability. The Senior Class could never thank Mr, Diorka enough for all the things that he has done for them. He truly made their years at Great Valley interesting and worthwhile. And so to show their appreciation, the 1977 Musket is dedicated to Mr. Michael J. Diorka.
