For jUst Q few moments Anwar Sadar, Dr. Martin Luther King, El- eanor Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Gloria Steinem, John Wayne, and Margaret Thatcher. Who are these people? These were just a few of the many people greatly admired by the faculty at MN. Many people were admired nor only because of whar they achieved bur how they handled themselves. ‘'! admire Jim Hart, quarterback for the football Cardinals, because when he is on radio interviews he is subjected to a great deal of criticism and in most cases, he keeps cool and responds like a gentieman,” commented Mr. Linton Luetie, when asked whom he admired. There were a great deal of people who where nor widely known but admired just as much. ‘ ! think anyone is admirable if they try fo realize their potential to the point where they don't waste their talents,” star- ed Mr. Robert Blanner.

These were a few of the goals that teachers strived for this past year. In order to do this, teachers prepared them- selves by keeping sharp abou their jobs and creating more personal contact be- tween the teachers and the students. Both were very important. In addition to career goals for today, teachers also had personal goals from years bacls thar they simply dreamed of or suc- cessfully attained. Some teacher's dreams were more imaginative, while others were more realistic. On a more imaginative side, Mr. Ray Schoch commented that he “'wanted fo be a major league baseball player, a journalist, a sports broadcaster, a professional race car driver, and a professional musician. “ Mr. Roth's dreams were more realistic for his life. He said he always wanted to be in a skilled career area and knew thar was what he was besr af. ‘'l never had fantasy dreams; | guess | was always realistic. | prob- ably have more fantasies now than as a child. “’ When interviewed, Ray Schoch admitted tro once having dreamed of being a professional race car driv- er. With pride, Robert Decsert relives his dream of be- coming a major league baseball player.
