School Opening Delayed chool opening this year was delayed because of the controversial issue of busing. The issue was dropped by Judge William E. Miller pending on a decision which was before the Supreme Court. Confusion reigned despite the suspen sion of the issue. Teachers were moved in order to achieve a certain black-white ratio and school portables were moved back and forth in order to accomodate the students who would have been transfered. All in all Hillwood students found themselves a little closer to their school and their friends when allowed to return to Hillwood for the school year 70-71. i Middle Center - Friday afternoon brings mad dash to buses.

Dedication Goes to Two of HilIvvood's Finest ince Hillwood is made up of both a Senior High and a Junior High the annual staff of 1970-71 felt the need to dedicate the book to two teachers, one from each section. What is it that gives a teacher the respect and admiration of his students? ls it his qualities as a teacher, his personality, or the hundreds of little things he does for the students? The Senior High teacher whom we chose has all of the above characteristics and more. The Topper Staff dedicates this book to a man who has served unselfishly as Student Council advisor, sponsor of the se- nior class, English teacher, creative writing instructor, and friend of the studentg Mr. Albert Gaines, affectionately known as Mr. Chips?
