The staff of the 1970 TRADEWINDS is proud to dedicate this yearbook to Mr. Merle Bailey. His five years of dedicated service to Mayfair make him more than worthy of this honor. Since Mr. Bailey ' s first year at Mayfair, his list of duties has included teaching Spanish and History, coaching the Cee Basketball team, and he is currently Director of Activities. In 1967, he organized the May- fair branch of Key Club International, and has trans- formed it into one of the most important and active of campus service clubs. Mr. Bailey took the job of Di- rector of Activities in 1968 and has proved to be an outstanding administrator. His leadership and enthu- siasm has inspired the ASB cabinet and added greatly to his ability to coordinate all student activities. He was a guiding force behind Mayfair ' s school partner- ship program and the adoption of Jaime Medrano. We are proud to dedicate the eleventh edition of the TRADEWINDS to Mr. Merle Bailey, whose spirit and loyalty is inspiring our new decade. Battling his busy schedule Mr. Bailey still finds time for coaching the Monsoon Cee Basketball team. Coach Bailey can boast many league championships due to his loyalty and work with each individual team member. Mr. Bailey is respected for his unique way of classroom teaching mt m

AFS student Kari Gregersen adds to May fair ' s new decade Mayfair High was fortunate enough again in 1969 to have a foreign exchange student on campus. She is Kari Gregersen, tall, blond and energetic. She is from Oslo, Norway, where she lives with her parents and one brother. While at Mayfair, Kari lives with senior Debbie Mc- Allister and her family. Kari enjoys horseback riding, books about famous people and good movies. She likes to get together with friends for conversation. She says she has little time for pleasure in Norway because the schools are very strict. School is six days a week and students attend 14 classes a day. There isn ' t much time for social life during the school year. Kari was Mayfair ' s honorary homecoming princess this year. She was very impressed by football season at MHS. She ' d never seen a foot- ball game until this year. She said she doesn ' t understand all the screaming and talking during the game.
