I canyhearumanyp of the things now that you will say has you look through this annual. You will ybe fluent in discussingthe way you would have done this or that. Your criti- cisms will be many and quite unkind. And your compliments will not do justice to the works the staff put into thishook. I say these things because for the last three years I, too, have followed the pattern. ts1t J But let me say this to you. We theisngembers of the 1970-71 Hamptonian, staff present this annual to you as representative of hours of cross-country labor and effort. You see, the rather unexpected eyentsilof the year's end caught us up the creek without a paddle, Long after most of you had gone home and far into the summer we were puttingitogethf er YOUR book. l We make no excuses and all apologies neces- sary. But most of all we hope you will find this an annual that you can be proud of. My special thanks to a hardworking staff, Mr. Lucius Wyatt, and Mr. Danny DeFalco. Hamptoman Staff
