The 165 bewildered freshmen who roamed the maze of corridors on that day comprised what would be the first class to com- plete the entire four years of high school in the new building. We of the Class of 1970 were those freshmen, years have passed since then, and today we are tired old seniors, no longer frightened by the prospect of being lost in the endless hallways. As seniors, we will be confronted by many novel experiences to replace the early ones. We have prepared this yearbook so that they might be shared with others.

2 Customarily, the entity known as a yearbook is dedicated to an individual within a school or community whose achievements are felt to be worthy of recognition. We of the Halfmoon staff of 1970 have chosen to deviate from this practice, by dedicating our efforts instead to a cause that is felt by all of us. Unless all the people of the world choose to cooperate with each other, the efforts of any one man will be meaningless. For this reason, we dedicate Halfmoon '70 to the cause of world peace, in hope that the people will work together to try to attain that goal for the first time in history. Perhaps the members of the present gener- ation will be the ones to find a way.

Members of the Board of Education are (seated L to R ) Leila Holmes, v. president; Dr. Howard Welker, superintendent; Geraldine Harvey, president; (standing) George Downs Jr., Arnold Reed, John Phelps, and Frank DeLorenao. Mr. Joseph Zurio was absent when the picture was taken. Board of Education To the average student, the Board of Education seems like a behind the scenes function of education. The members of the Board are often not known by name, but the things they accomplish for the student cannot go unrecognized. They spend many hours per month working on the problems of the school system. They also take the brunt of the blame when something goes wrong. We the class of 1970, therefore, wish to express our sincere appreciation for their understanding and dedication. 4
