Dedication We, the Yearbook club of 1957, wish to dedicate the tenth anniversary edition of The Mac to Mrs. Muriel Hulbert. Prior to her present posi- tion as Mr. Baer's secretary and Clerk of the Board, Mrs. Hulbert taught French and Commercial subjects in our school. She makes a memorable impression on all visitors as she greets them with a cheerful smile. Keeping the office records, making out report cards, and handling the school mail are a few of the many tasks in her busy schedule. She also finds time to relay phone messages to all parts of the building. Mrs. Hulbert pleasantly assists teachers and students with a cheerful smile and somehow she never seems to find it too much trouble to help us all. And this is one way we say 'cthank you, Mrs. Hulbertn as we dedicate the 1957 Mac to you.

Foreword The '57 Mac is a Tenth 'Anniversary edition paying tribute to the progress made during the first decade of yearbooks edited by our students. As the rapid changes have affected our school system, they also have affected the type of yearbook published for the community. Each year's theme has indicated the stage of school progress since 1948. The first theme was centered around the Senior Classg the '49 theme was The Forty Niners : in 1950 the Seniors once again were the central subjectg in '51, an Anniversary Edition of School Centralization g in '52 Educational Progress Through Construction g in '53, Changing From the Old to the New : in '54, Finishing Touches g in '55, Our School Reflects Our Town g and in '56, Time Marches On. We see too, that vast changes in the size, paper. and covers of our Mac have come about in the same period. From a simple paper cover, we have advanced to the more modern padded cover. The paper in our recent yearbooks is glossy, replacing the rougher style and enabling us to improve the type of printing. The first yearbook had forty-eight pages whereas to- day we have ninety-six-thus we have doubled our size in ten years. During this same time as a result of the rapid growth of the school curriculum and extracurricu- lar activities. changes such as the Yearbook Club itself, necessitated more space in The Mac. As was seen in the '48, '49 and '50 editions, the Yearbook had been a money-making project of the Senior Class. Today, it is a high school club. 1 .t .- W rr ' it If, pg fauna- v V .: g 1 1 -f,,, A ' hazel as l It . , in SJ U ' 's?t -4- . . - , 1.

' Our theme this tenth year correlates closely with our division pages and there one will find a replica of each year's book. After ten editions, we feel it is now time to pause and review these accomplishments before step- ping into a new decade. It is always a wise practice to contemplate the next maneuver with a deep feeling of hope and with an urge to make the best even better- and in remembrance of the foundation laid by our predecessors, we share with you a feeling of accomplish- ment in completing the first decade of Yearbooks pre- sented by the students of McGraw Central School.
