Its immediate predecessors, the compilers of the 1935 and 1936 annuals, had earned noteworthy commenda- tion in the yearly contests of the Western New York Press Asso- ciation, and with this creditable rating as an inspiration the present stalf resolved to make the 1937 HMirror the best ever published by Medina High School. Starting Work early in the fall, the members had charge of soliciting advertisements and subscriptions, of making appointments with photographers, engravers, and printers, and of handling all prob- lems of publication-Financial, literary, and art. They boast no great innovations except the presentation of curricular as well as extra-curricular phases of high-school life. They aim merely to picture accurately, by words and photographs, the year's events. To all those without whose interest and assistance this annual would have been impossible, the Staff of the 1937 Mirror,' Wishes to express its appreciation: to Miss Ferguson for her able leadership and sound advice as faculty sponsorg to Superintendent Trippensee for his good-humored encouragement and helpful suggestionsg to its numerous advertisers and subscribers for their Hnancial assis- tance.To each and all of them, The Mirror Staff is deeply grateful. l19
