7a 7716 Of 21,20 Life is but a vapor. It is here for a short time and then it vanishes, yet, during this short time each person has an opportunity to make a lasting contribution to those he leaves behind. We, the student body, accepted the contributions of a life that exemplified the traditional West- erner spirit-now we repay the giver, Mr. E. J. Wallace. During his nine years as an LHS teacher, Mr. Wallace helped hundreds of students not only by teaching them the fundamentals of mechanical drawing, but by setting for them an example of diligence and incentive. Even on the athletic field Where he coached and refereed, this man with unusual enthusiasm kept pace, despite ill- health, with younger, more healthy associates. We honored him as Teacher-of-the-lVIonth and Mr. Good Citizen, but no honor, to him, surpassed that of the standing ovation he received as pep rally speaker prior to the 1961 LHS-MHS tilt. The vapor passed away this past summer, but the wisdom and influence did not. We still re- member him as he was when We passed him in the hall or met him in the classroom. It is With deep admiration, appreciation, and respect that We dedicate in memoriam the 1963- 64 annual to Mr. E. J. Wallace. While sponsoring the 1962 Junior-Senior Prom festivities, Mr. and Mrs. Wallace posed for an informal photograph- the last one made together before his death.
