Horace Mann High School Gary, Indiana Vol. 41 Strength Enough to Battle Difficulties, Overcome Them Patience Enough to Toil Until Some Good Is Accomplished Faith Enough to Make Real the Things Of God In the 60’s, teen-agers learned that times grow more difficult and that education is necessary for satis¬ factory achievement. Horace Mann School was an im¬ portant factor in the educating of many Gary youth. Located in the western section of the city, the insti¬ tution offered curricula for general and college preparatory students. Many friendships grew among faculty and students through the variety of classes offered at school. Extra-curricular activities brought groups of teen-agers closer together with one ideal: promise of fulfill¬ ment. Promise means opportunity- fulfillment means attainment. Every¬ one strove to attain; for this was accomplishment, success, fulfill¬ ment. Meeting of obligations in studies, attending or performing in football, basketball games, writing term papers or speaking French crowded the days. When the time came to choose be¬ tween social and serious moments, the choice was carefully made. Stu¬ dents wanted time to look and time to care, time to prove themselves as worthy persons. As new students enrolled at Hor¬ ace Mann, graduates who had ac¬ cepted the promise of high school and felt the satisfaction of success left, learning and seeking the chal¬ lenges of new tomorrows in uni¬ versities or in the world of business. Those who left went with pride and humility, grateful for The Promise of Mann.

English Curriculum Tries New Approach Linguistics, the study of words, was introduced to English students in seventh and tenth grades. Newly adopted textbooks with a linguistic slant aided junior and senior school students in understanding grammar. Literature offerings underwent change. Paperbacks, such as the Diary of Anne Frank and The Old Man and the Sea supplemented pre¬ scribed courses and anthologies used as texts. English III and IV classes con¬ centrated on success in writing. Managing thoughts on paper with clarity and economy kept juniors and seniors at their writing. Miss Lynn Ludewig, Miss Sandra Gibbs, Mrs. Stella Bentley, Miss Janet Jensen, Miss Danise Vossos, who had practiced teaching with Mrs. Dorothy Goldman last year, and Mr. William Wagner, all new teach¬ ers, aided students in mastering the two new approaches. Caesar, Dominic Sapone, dies again for sophomore English classes: Conspirators are John Vaughn, Linda Williams, Henry McGee, and Diane Martinson. Works of Greek art are displayed by Miss Monnix for World Literature. Shellee Burrows defends a paper to which she has applied disciplines for gaining objec¬ tivity in her writing. Miss Jensen explains a linguistic tree to her students. Don Zolper searches the card catalog for a book he has been assigned. Sue Wallace, Sue Gillette, Rhea Appel, Bill Johnson, Ros Weiner, and Bob Poogach discuss Greek Philosophy in English IV class. Practical, Career Mathematics Available Mathematics taught pupils to solve everyday problems and pre¬ pared interested students for ca¬ reers. Because of lack of government funds, computer math was not of¬ fered this year. Courses continued for interested high school students at the Illinois Institute of Technology. Students needing assistance in mathematics received . aid at the math clinic. Tutored by fellow stu¬ dents, they were able to overcome their difficulties. New teachers added to the staff were Mr. Lee Robinson, known as coach to former physical education students, taught eighth grade math. Mr. Robert Justin taught seventh and eighth grade math along with Mr. Robert Rhymes. Beth Hogg plots the graph of an elipse in Algebra II. Pete Peronis and Dave Bryant explain the processes of Arithmetic. Jerry Wilborne, Larry Bingham, Pam Edwards and Susan Rosch examine geometric figures. Mr. Zawada clears up some problems for Joe Binkley in eighth grade math. 15 Science Learnings Based on Experiments Practical and physical sciences provide a varied curriculum for sci¬ ence students. Seventh, eighth and ninth graders experimented in the practical sciences; tenth, eleventh and twelfth graders studied physical sciences. Microscopes were used by seventh and eighth graders in training for biology. They observed specimens and various forms of life and de¬ scribed what they saw. Biology and advanced biology stressed genetics, heredity, and dif¬ ferent branches of life science. Through experiments, chemistry students observe the behavior of ele¬ ments. Physics students worked with motion studies. Dave Tallos and Perry Jones learn to work carefully and observe keenly as they dissect a frog in Biology. Clifford Kraft does an experiment in chem study decanting water from a silver solution. 16 Kenneth Wallace and Nancy Mitchell measure tape used in velocity experiment. Greg Isley and John Baron check free falling objects for acceleration and time graph. John Baron, Bill Johnson and Greg Isley gauge tape for plotting on graphs. German Pupils Write Deutsch Newspaper Composing a newspaper was a new project for third and fourth year Germans. Containing news of Ger¬ man students, Die deutsch Zeitung provided German students with extra reading and writing practice. Students studying French and Spanish participated in a new pro¬ gram stressing speaking and reading. Spanish four and five classes con¬ centrated on poetry and stories of Spanish people using the Coloquious system, while three, four, and five French pupils employed the Par er Et Ecrire series, a collection of accounts of the French people. Besides learning to read and to write the language, Latin students studied English vocabulary derived from Latin. Short stories in Latin provided pleasure reading; Greek and Roman culture were subjects of serious study. Rosemary Sanchez displays Aurelio , the pinata, a gift to the Spanish class from a for¬ mer student. On the chalkboard is the Kennedy family tree written in Spanish. 18 Joe Morris and Steve Todorich display a sign meaning Hello, friends” in Latin I. Miss Georgia Bopp helps Nancy Weiss and Debbie Evans pronounce a difficult Ger¬ man sound, the umlaut. German students take part in listening and responding to a dialogue. Political Classics Replace History Texts Mr. Paul Carlson’s Advanced Placement United States History course, offered to qualified juniors, substituted three political classics— The American Republic, A Diplomatic History of the American People, and A Documentary History of the Ameri¬ can People —for the conventional textbook. A clearer view of the na¬ tion’s past was the reason for this change. European History, a new course also of advanced placement diffi¬ culty, was taught by Mr. William Stern, who expected his students to have a reasonably detailed knowl¬ edge of European history from 1500 to 1945. Students selected an era within that time for intensive study. The book employed was Civilization Past and Present; outside readings were part of the course. Pupils re¬ ceived grades on a five to one scale on the Advanced Placement Test. Students enjoy an informal discussion in European History, a new course at Horace Mann. Carl Wilkerson uses a globe to plan dream trip to Europe. In the U. S. History Advanced Placement course, students find no shortage of books. Lindsey Gullett sorts cards against time as Joel Routman records his efficiency. Ten chances and the rules are changed in this psychological experiment. New Librarian Distributes Reading Lists Coming from Portage High School, Mrs. Karen Fites filled the position of librarian for Miss Leota Janes, who was on leave for study. Mrs. Fites distributed lists of new titles to the faculty to implement reading lists already in use. Miss Janine Czarnecki empha¬ sized simple resource materials. Pupils attending the junior library were concerned with reference books and their uses. Because of the strong emphasis placed on term papers and research projects, both teachers instructed students in use of helpful aids found in the library. Knowing how to find books using the card catalog and the Dewey Decimal system was stressed. Rosa Dominguez consults an unabridged dictionary and is disgusted when she finds so Library Assistant Dolly Lou Martinson many meanings for one word. finds information in magazines. Students study and read for fun in the Senior Library. 22 Mrs. Shirley Shaevel shows Gordon Lind examples of style in painting. Miss Mary Clark directs her advanced choir class in some warm-up exercises. Fine Arts Seek to Complement Education Necessary for the attainment of a well-rounded education are the Fine Arts: music, drama, speech, graphic arts and sculpture. To help students toward under¬ standing art, appreciation was accented. Interpretation, essential in creating and comprehending artistic works, was taught through modern art. In the music department, General Music offered a view of the field. For those wishing more advanced study, courses requiring talent and technique together with Music Ap¬ preciation and Theory and Harmony were available. Speech classes emphasized im¬ provement of voice and diction. Stu¬ dents electing these courses prac¬ ticed extemporaneous speaking, storytelling, and debate. Introducing pupils to drama through impromptu play reading and interpretation was a task of the Drama department. Mr. Gary McKim taught drama classes and directed Drama Club. Donna Cutler and Marie Del Busto practice pencil sketching in art class. Mrs. Donna Mills explains how to use phonetics to Tom Vlamos, Gregory Hite, Bob Rodriquez and Robert Maldonado. Reading Needed in Every Type of Study Individual Developmental Reading is designed to improve reading skills and comprehension of students hav¬ ing difficulty with reading. Since reading is a necessary part of every course, pupils must be able to read well. Students’ test scores and teach¬ ers’ recommendations aided Mrs. Mills in selecting her classes. Greg, Robert and Tom test their reading comprehension. Tom, Greg, Robert and Bob pace their reading by using shadowscopes. Bob, Robert, Greg and Tom browse through the reading material available to I DR students. Students Informed for Greater Safety Richard Komenich practices the art of making a sling on Rick Galic. Knowledge as the best safeguard against injury was the philosophy of courses in Driver ' s Training and Health and Safety. Teachers in¬ structed pupils so that they could cope with most emergency situations. Health and Safety concentrated on teaching functions and needs of the human body. Consequences of smoking, drinking, and narcotics were explained in classwork and films. Driver’s Training, required for graduation without credit, related in¬ formation on the functioning of mo¬ tor vehicles as well as operating skills. After obtaining beginner ' s permits, students signed up from study halls for a five-week period of lessons. Pupils received booklets and mimeographed sheets contain¬ ing the rules of the road. Lonnie Kaplan has trouble trying to feed Ricky Sanchez. Terre Pettis, Diethrice Taylor, Maria Panjoitis, Delia Serranos, Maria George from cook¬ ing class mix their ingredients for hot cocoa. Sanchez Baby Visits Home Nursing Class Richard Sanchez, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Sanchez, made his debut in Mrs. Vlasta Carmichael’s home nursing class. His visit was beneficial in providing students with experience in feeding and cloth¬ ing an infant. Modern Living, a branch of home nursing, confronted pupils with problems found by parents in child¬ raising. Clothing students, with the as¬ sistance of Miss Florene Gooch, new home economics teacher, presented a fashion show on November 17 in the auditorium. Young seamstresses modeled their ensembles before par¬ ent spectators. First and second-year foods classes concentrated on simple foods such as salads. More advanced chefs in third and fourth year foods planned and prepared balanced meals. Pam Carter, Gaye Harold, Miss Gooch and Pam Flack help Diane Drake begin her outfit for the fashion show. Ricky ignores the rattle and the inexper¬ ienced hands of Norma Chavez and La- vonia Patterson. 26 Business Courses Focus on Employment Busy Danny Cruz practices business transactions suggested in a general business kit. General Business, Shorthand, Business Law, Typing, Bookkeeping, and Clerical Practice are important in equipping students for employ¬ ment. By teaching these skills, the pupils for job competition. Helping students find work is a function of Cooperative-on-the-Job training. Under the direction of Mr. William Coon, Co-op teacher, stu¬ dents met academic requirements on a half-day schedule at Mann and worked a half day under school em¬ ployers’ supervision. Mrs. Barbara Iglehart, typing in¬ structor, joined the business faculty this year. Judy Lindsey gets special instructions as her classmates try the adding machines. Not so nimble, Art Katz gets his index finger caught in the typewriter as Phyllis Lee and Rosa Santos watch. Linda Williams searches for an important paper in the file, using techniques taught in General Business course. 27 Dan Danny Bowman rivets handle on tool box in Metal Shop. Marc Carter operates the horizontal mill¬ ing machine in Metal Shop. Students Gain Manual Skills in Shops WEAR GOGGLES WHE USING THIS MACHINE Mechanical drawing students use class hour to work on individual projects. Training students in mechanical skills necessary to many jobs, in¬ dustrial arts courses consisted of mechanical drawing, wood shop, electric shop, and metal shop. A variety of projects including tele¬ graphs in electric shop, lamp stands in wood shops and ash trays in metal shops provided students with use¬ ful and creative experience in work¬ ing with their hands. Pupils in junior high elected ex¬ ploratory courses in two of the four shops; high school students special¬ ized. Mr. George Dimos, new to the faculty, instructed wood shop. Fitness Accomplished With Sportsmanship Mike Sangerman, Robert Lawrence and Chuck Dethloff use their heads in gym. Gym students try to achieve precision in their dai Echoes of shouts and cheers re¬ sounded as boys and girls partici¬ pated in physical education classes. Swimming, baseball, basketball and other sports built strong bodies. Gymnastics helped students achieve physical fitness. Sportsmanship and cooperation were practiced in activi¬ ties involving team effort. Two years of physical education were required for graduation. Delores Pineda and Darlene Brookshire play an exciting basketball game during gym class. 29 Coach Elser awaits the outcome of the game. Coach Elser Completes Successful Career After starring as an athlete in high school, Coach Don Elser con¬ tinued his education at Notre Dame where he won nine letters in track, football and basketball. Coming to Horace Mann in 1941, he coached his initial football squad to a 5-5 record. After a four- year absence in the Navy, he returned to the first of twenty-three consecutive years at the gridiron helm. During his tenure, he pro¬ duced a 107-104-11 slate, becoming one of few coaches to reach the century triumph total. His teams achieved conference crowns in 1961 and 1965. Coach Elser served as a Big Ten Basketball and football official. Committee service for Coach Elser included Honor Society, Scholarship, and Building and Grounds groups. For several years he directed Grand Marches for juniors and their guests at spring proms. Teachers’ banquets, where Coach presided as master of ceremonies, were enlivened and made cheerful by his fund of stories. His hope that all go well with Mann students and faculty will be cherished by those who knew him. Coach Don Elser 30 Superintendent McAndrew Faces Gary Challenges Dr. Gordon L. McAndrew, Superintendent “Providing the best possible edu¬ cational program for every Gary stu¬ dent with the amount of money avail¬ able is the biggest problem I face,” said Dr. Gordon McAndrew, new sup¬ erintendent of Gary Schools. Obtain¬ ing funds to improve education was one of his major goals. Merging of Edison, Froebel, and Tolleston into West Side High school showed a country-wide trend away from small neighborhood schools. Tension rising over boundry disputes concerning West Side resulted in a brief boycott. Federal funds were obtained to form a human relations committee to help forestall a recur¬ rence of this kind. Dr. McAndrew expressed a desire to lessen regimentation and to intro¬ duce discussion of current issues and situations into classrooms. A shortage of qualified teachers for Gary schools concerned the sup¬ erintendent. Remedies suggested by Dr. McAndrew include higher start¬ ing salaries, decreased class size and increased facilities and resourc¬ es.

Haiku poetry on divider pages ex¬ plained promises fulfilled in each section of the yearbook. Opening the social season with the year’s first dance, staff members and guests danced to the music of the Six Pack. A subscription to Mannual and Mann-U-Script was drawn by Martie Johnson, holder of the lucky number, to open the sale of publica¬ tions. Both staffs advertized in class¬ es, wore publication tags and sold after school. Meeting deadlines plagued Man¬ nual staff, even though they met daily during the last period to work on the yearbook. Mrs. Genevieve Ernst as advisor, aided the staff. The forty-first edition of Mannual was published by Newsfoto Publish¬ ing Company. Members of the staff, Robin Rider, Sophie Lachowiec, Sunday Kurtis, Pat Flood, Nancy Norwaish, Sue Darnell, Kally Tsangaris, and Jeri Lockhart work on layouts. Debbie Karski, layout editor.

Our foes prepare for battle, We achieve success. Pigskin Players Produce Peaks, Valleys Dizzy from frequent ups and downs, Horace Mann’s gridders com¬ pleted 1968 football with a four and six record. Early victory in Football-O-Rama set the stage for the initial skirmish against Roosevelt. Pouncing on the Panthers with strength and preci¬ sion, the gridders ended a six-year famine against their foe. The hope of a perfect season soon passed as the Horsemen met the first of five top-ranked opponents, Elkhart, and lost by three touchdowns. By wallop¬ ing arch-rival Wallace 20-0, Mann re¬ gained momentum. Andrean, Tolle- ston, Hammond Noll, and Hobart— all among Indiana’s elite—proceeded to outscore Mann, who dropped deep below an even slate. Aroused by four consecutive set¬ backs, the Horsemen trivialized the Tornadoes of Emerson at Homecom¬ ing; they furthered their triumph to¬ tal by flattening Froebel with the second whitewash of the season, 28- 0. Hammond Morton then foiled the footballers ' finale with a second half surge. Captain Jim Kendig and Backs Zeke Bradley and Monte Witherspoon led the team’s infantry attack while the passing combination of Fred San¬ chez to Frank Taylor threw the ad¬ versary off balance. Heading a de¬ fensive unit which held each defeated foe to seven or fewer points were Seniors Art Glazer and Bob Renslow. 27 Roosevelt 7 0 Elkhart 19 20 Wallace 0 0 Andrean 20 6 Tolleston 30 25 Hammond 33 0 Hobart 19 39 Emerson 7 28 Froebel 0 13 Hammond Morton 20 Won 4 Lost 6 Front row: Art Glazer, Jim Kendig, Mike Huerta, Tom Pitzer, Monte Raul Rivas, Gordon Lind, Eugene Velazco, Dean Rothschild, Don Ster- Witherspoon, Bob Renslow, Aubrey Burt, Charles Brown, Richard iovsky, Zeke Bradley, Larry Jones, Roger Fleming, Dan Shocaroff, Komenich.

Loss of athletes to Vocational school accounted for the harriers’ poor showing. The team lost its first four meets before count¬ ering with a victory over East Gary. Coach Jack Hobbs awarded let¬ ters to underclass men including juniors Luis Olmo, John Brugos, Phillip Walker, Earl Puckett, and sophomore Danny Bowman.

Cagers Net Second in Holiday Tourneys The final tally showed thirteen wins, eight losses, for a .619 per¬ centage. For the first time in years, Horace Mann ' s fighting Horsemen finished “in the black , winning five more games than they lost. Led by Coach Jack Hobbs, the five starters proved accurate shots from the field and boasted balanced scor¬ ing. Captain Ray Billingsley led the team with a near twenty points per game. Billingsley, Monte Wither¬ spoon, Verdell Davis, and Danny Gibson all maintained double figure outputs, with Zeke Bradley providing needed depth. After an opening setback to Crown Point, the surprising Horsemen rolled to five consecutive victories before the holiday tourney; a pair of second- place finishes marked the midseason contests. Facing a tougher second half schedule, the Horsemen struggled to a 10-8 mark. Finishing strong, the netters swept their final three contests over Emerson, Portage and arch-rival Wirt.

Co-captains Warren Gamble and Bob Renslow teamed with George Rivas in winning individual sectional honors. With Paul Ramos and Fred Sanchez notching consolation vic¬ tories, the wrestlers went five for five on the final night to nudge Portage 59-57. Second place in regionals followed. At the state meet, Bob Renslow placed third and Warren Gamble suc¬ cessfully defended his state crown to lead the squad to fifth place. In doing so, Warren completed a starstudded career; he was state runner-up in both his freshman and sophomore years. Last season, compiling a 20- 0-1 record, he won the state 127- pound title. Extending his unbeaten string to 53, he was victorious in all his 26 matches this season. Mann vs. Opponent 40 Lew Wallace 10 26 Andrean 21 17 E. C.

Seniors were Bill Strang, Allan Linde, Bob Rewerts, Gordon Lind, Ray Cortazar, Mike Huerta and Fred Sanchez; under¬ classmen Rich Flora and Raul Rivas rounded out the roster of lettermen. Holding the first official meeting at the beginning of March, the squad soon s harpened their reflexes with indoor exercise. Later, Coach helped fielders iron out rustiness developed over the winter and batting practice sharpened the baseballers’ hitting efficiency. Intrasquad games im¬ proved both. 81 Reserve cheerleaders —Front Row: Paula Wirick, Pat Flores, Judy Kitowski.

Finally, in the last quarter, the Tor¬ nadoes again crossed the goal line to close the scoring and tie the game. Freida Hicks reigned as queen and received a dozen roses after the game. Her court was composed of Alice Lopez, Nancy Renta, Jody Stan- erone, and Luz Torres.

Steve Bowen, Lorraine Morillon, Rose Morillon and Dan Shacaroff enjoy the atmosphere at the Holiday Ball. Trimming the tree, the major decoration of the dance, combines the work of many Student Council members. Couples stand in line for the traditional grand march. Mann’s O-Rama T.D. Outdistances Others Longest touchdown pass in Gary’s twelfth Football-O-Rama, seventy- three yards, was lofted by Sopho¬ more Charles Dethloff to Halfback Zeke Bradley.

Bow Day, girls wearing large chiffon bows in their hair, was added. Because Valentine’s Day was not far off, Mr. Irresistible Day was introduced in Twirp Week schedule. To elect Mr. Irresistible, club mem¬ bers sold paper hearts. The girls wore their hearts until they spoke to a boy, thus losing the heart. The boy who collected the most hearts was announced as Mr. Irresistible at Turnabout. “Twilight in Tara”was the theme of the semiformal dance climaxing Twirp Week. Held in the girls’ gym, the dance required the girl to invite the boy, pay for tickets, pictures taken at the dance, and bouton¬ nieres. The boys supplied transporta¬ tion and refreshments. Barbara Hubbard fulfills her Twirp Week commitment by carrying Rich Flora’s books to class. Linda Allee and Sue Chenowith criticize decorations for Twirp Week. Rosemary Sanchez, Anita Williams, and Nadine Dobbins do a Twirp Week mural. Betty Elser explains Twirp Week rules to Jeff Hales. 128 Coupels are crowded, but manage to find space to dance. Girls Invite Boys to Zwilight at Zara Girls and their dates end the dance with the Grand March. Bob Rewerts and Karen Sangerman slow dance to the music. 129 First Educational Orbit Flown by Seniors Four years ago, eager, reluctant junior high students became Horace Mann Freshmen. First floor lockers, a paper drive, and Freshman Home¬ coming marked their inaugural year. Second year reminiscences included a candy sale, production of Our Town, and Freshmore entitled ‘‘Shine on Harvest Moon. Junior prom prepara¬ tions for “Garden of Eden” took time; class rings and West building lockers were important. Junior play, The Mouse That Roared, and Spirit Week decorations with the winning car rounded out the year. During the final stretch, Frank Borman Day was celebrated. Antigone, senior class play, and Kings and Queens arrived and departed. May brought the prom. Three milestones marked the end of high school careers: Recogntion Day, Baccalaureate, and graduation. Mr. David Dickson and Miss Elaine Gorney guided the class of ' 69. In remembering their final year, Mann seniors might recall the begin¬ ning of the Nixon years, but chances are that man’s first trek to the moon will come to mind. High school is the preliminary orbit where one checks the equipment and maneuverability of his craft. Upon the orbit ' s comple¬ tion, he embarks upon his venture. To the astronaut, it is the moon: to the student, it is life. Senior class officers —Front row: liana Kaplan, treasurer; Rita Fettman, secretary; Ros Weiner, vice president; Sue Medwell, president.

Grads Reach First Educational Milestone In the span of history, Thursday, June 5, 1969, was only one day; but the Class of 1969 will remember it as the day of their first educational milestone—high school graduation. Two hundred-sixty seniors gathered at Memorial Auditorium and participated in Commencement exer¬ cises. Wearing grey caps and gowns, the graduates watched Principal George Grigsby, Dr. Gordon McAn- drew, Superintendent, and the School Board direct ceremonies. Cho¬ ral Club and Speech Club contributed songs and readings. Each girl carried red roses on her trek down the aisle. The top forty scholars led the stu¬ dents to the stage; remaining pupils followed in alphabetical order. Near the end of the program at Mr. Grigsby ' s command, tassels swung from right to left; students became alumni. Heading the class scholastically was valedictorian, Michael Kolbert; salutatorian honors went to Steve Kraft. The graduates of the class of 1969 walk solemnly up the aisle.

Special thanks go to Mr. Harry Bortz for his time, patience, and pictures. For the many phone calls and late notices for the bulletin we thank Miss Dorothy Piske. Miss Verone Sokol furnished class lists, scheduled pic¬ tures, and told us the people in the pictures when we didn’t know their names. Miss Alice Hatpin and Stu¬ dent Council sorted Indiana School Pictures; to them we owe special thanks. We ' re grateful to Miss Betty Spychalski for use of her typewriter when no other was available, to Al Garcia and Mrs. Bernadette Fissinger for identifying hundreds of pictures, and to Mrs. Linda Fendley for her assistance in the theme section. To Mr. George Grigsby, Mr. Lawrence Gehring, and Mr. Rufus Harris we ex¬ press our thanks for their ready sup¬ port and constant backing. Speaking now as editor, I must thank the members of my staff for their unselfish efforts and willing co-operation throughout the year. A special word of thanks to Jim Bertino for hours spent taking and develop¬ ing pictures. Tony Nelson furnished the cover photograph and color spread. Mr. Dick Kennard took the title page picture of our windows. To Sue Medwell, her official title was business manager, but the multitude of services she rendered the staff and to me was legion. Mrs. Genevieve Ernst was our faithful advisor who stood by us in thick and thin. Mere thanks are not enough to repay her for all the long hours of proofreading, arranging, and correcting copy. We hope pleasure will be gained from reading this book; the staff has enjoyed compiling it. May our sub¬ scribers not only look for their own pictures, but also recognize their roles as the Promise of Mann . . . 1969 Horrce M hhmI Staff Editor-in-chief . . .
