'v-n-,.--.1-- 7' 7 ,,, I s x I S V ' I ? k ll 5 To our best friend and beloved principal, James W. Smith, we 'gratefully dedicate l this M for his understanding and helpful attitude during our four years of high school. After reigning over MA for eight years he is resigning his position as principal this June. Pictured with him are the other two men of his family, his son Jimmy , who is a brilliant example of scholastic achievement, and his baby grandson, Philip. Mr. Smith and Jimmy did not attend MA but we earnestly hope that young Philip will someday come to our alma mater. lf he does, we shall welcome him with open arms for his grand daddy's sake. To you, Mr. Smith, we wish the best of everything-luck, happiness, and health. When we come back for class reunions we shall always look forward to seeing you. . .V . . . . .. . -if x .. , . q- '.: - lr . .'A - l.f ,g l-l.. , .,' I 5 -, ..
