IMITJSIC Mr. Albert Basso, Chairman qI the Music Department. Mr. Placido Lutri, Miss Agnes Golab, Mr. Robert Berk. It is strange how frequently we overlook the obvious, hqw quickly we forget the details when examining a fin- ished product. Perhaps no other group is quite as guilty of this neglect as is the young. In our haste to embark upon new careers and new ideas we often forget those who have contributed much towards pur future. But now we would like to rise above our immaturity an J express in these few words the respect and admiration we have for you, the men and women of our faculty, for the help you have given us. We cannot say, in all honesty, that we have been receptive at all times to your consistent efforts to help. Nor can we say that we have had the wisdom to realize the numberless hours you had spent in our behalf. Yet you must excuse us, for in this process of growing up we are absorbed in ourselves and thereby become short- sighted. We may not remember all that you taught us. We may never have the opportunity to use all the knowledge you conveyed. But we know that we have instilled in our memories your example of dedication and, more than this, a standard of social conduct, which will always be our legacy from you. ilere live memories of all those who have guided us to future paths.

73EHEIKTID THE SCENES As we turn toward our television screen, we behold a stage upon which actors and actresses have already begun to perform. We take for granted their costumes, the settings, the lighting— all those efforts of the nu- merous people behind the scenes. So in our school, we do not realize how many people diligently work with little or no recognition. We are brought to school by school employed bus drivers. When we arrive, we walk into glistening halls and work in neat, tidy rooms. In the cafeteria our lunches are served with a smile. Our records are kept by a staff of efficient office workers. Throughout the day, they, the people behind the scenes, are helping us. We would like them to know that their friendly co- operation is appreciated by the students and teachers alike.
