- -.L-H--' IllEll1'l'l-.'IlilU ml..-'-'-l.T- DEDICATION of ANNUAL THIS BEING the last year before Manteno Township High School will be consolidated into a Community Unit District, we, the senior class of '51, find it fitting and proper that we should dedicate our year book to the Manteno Township High School. Our school was built in 1926 and since then has had its share of humor and sadness, as the teachers and students have passed through its doors. Since 1926, Manteno Township High School has had three principals: J. F. Benham 11926-19411, F. G. Kopnick C1941-19421 and J. Paul Gnagey 11942-19511. More than 850 graduates have been prepared here for lives they are to lead. Manteno Township High School, we and the classes before us, are reluctant to see you go, but by doing this you are enlarging the social life of our fair community. We shall never forget all the little things that have happened to make school so pleasurable-and we owe it all to you -Manteno Township High School.
