For many of us it has taken a long While to realize the truth and force behind this statement inscribed on the south Wall of our auditorium. Mepham High School has been the field of a serious campaign to gain the secret of real life. Within these halls We have come to realize that the struggle for better and more creative lives can be fought only with a sincere desire for further learning and understanding of mankind. It is here that We have found the mental power and moral strength to realize that We do not need Worldly compensation for that which is accomplished Well. And so to those students who have already gained and to those Who will gain this insight, ,We dedicate THE 1948 TREASURE CHEST. IHHHNUHII N346 501401, 6iii0lfL Oh!

One of the fundamental concepts of democracy is edu- cation and in this postwar era its importance takes on a new signifi- cance to prepare today's students for tomorrowis citizens in a changed world.

These familiar words have been with us throughout our entire four years at Mepham in the voice of Mr. Hallenbeck. The voice greeting us over the P.A. System every afternoon has come to be as much a part of our school day as our classes. Mr. Hal- lenbeck is also the man Who keeps the registers up to date and follows up on all of our absentee- ism. During our first two years at Mepham, Mr. Hallenbeck was our acting principal. We are sin- cerely grateful to him for his Willingness to co- operate in the great number of details that make our tasks easier. aS'...,,fWe ,LA CMM... Behind every efficiently run organization, there must be some one to establish the ideals, and in- spire the group towards greater achievements. During the thirteen years since Mr. Calhoun was appointed principal, Mepham has developed and expanded, creating outstanding records in all Helds of endeavor. It has been greatly through Mr. Calhoun's able guidance that these high goals have been reached. He has fired us with his spirit of enthusiasm and has aided and cooperated With us on all issues which would be for the common good. His en- courage and amiable manner has established in us the principle on which is based all true success, that genius is 111 inspiration and 9996 per- spirationf' Page eleven Sfaurling: William Kinsley, Guidance, Doris Rauch, Librar- ian.

The class can be proud of its choice of class adviser. Mr. Grebinar has lived up to all of their expectations and has brought the class to a peak of perfection. It has been through his guidance, advice and suggestions that the class officers and planning committee have been able to organize the class activities. Because of his complete coopera- tion, the Junior Prom, Senior Ball, Harvest Page eighteen Moon Ball, and Senior Play can rank as the best yet given in Mepham. His personality has Won him the friendship of every senior as well as many underclassmen, and his splendid busi- ness training proved an excellent advantage in candy sales and raising funds for the class treasury. For these reasons, it is only fitting that we pay tribute to him, and we take this oppor- tunity to do so. e Thank you, Mr. Grebinar, for being an ex- cellent teacher, a wonderful class adviser, and a real friend. 01473 6VLLO'C Edt May, 1947 Dear Diary: Tensity, and overwhelming excitement were the prevailing emotions as we stood on the brink of our first election. We glanced around the room as we took a last minute look at our candidates and then scribbled our chosen names on a scrap of paper. Once our actual voting was over we chattered impatiently, waiting for the results. The rap of the gavel on the cafeteria table startled us into breathless listening. Then in a surge of applause the Junior class ushered in its officers. A ready smile, boundless energy, willingness to do work, and lots of hope for his class describe our adviser Mr. Edward Grebinar. Following him up the aisle was the president, athletic, popular Robert Snyder. Booker Gibson displaying his broad contagious grin took his place as vice presi- dent. A notebook out, all ready to assume his duties as secretary, Ted Gibson, joined the group at the table. To make the assemblage complete CLASS OFFICERS-G. Wood, Secretaryg I.. G. DeFreitas, Vice-President, R. Snyder, President, M. Riker, Treasurer. came our blonde, active treasurer Geraldine Wfood. So, Mepham saw the beginning of another ambitious senior class.

The first and last games resulted in one-sided defeats at the hands of Lawrence and Central respectively. Be- tween those two it was all Mepham. In that five game stretch, not one opposing team reached the Pirate goal-line. After a 0-0 tie with Sewanhaka, the Bucs decisively trounced Oceanside, River- head, Mineola and Hicksville. The passing artistry of Wally LaPrarie com- prised most of the Pirate offensive. When the final totals were determined, it was found that he had scored six touchdowns, four of these coming in the 34-0 slaughter of Riverhead. Bill Milhaven and George Assmus were the surprise packages of the grid season. Both made the starting line-up at end although it was their first season out for football. Lou Luba shared that position with them. These boys with the rest of the line, composed of Bob Snyder, Bob Bury, Ben See, Ed Randazzo and Henry Gobetz, did the real job in protecting the Hve-game streak in which the Bucs were unscored upon.

Although the squad opened the season with a terrific bang by shutting out Chaminade 15-40, it was deprived of an undefeated record by a tac- tical mistake late in the season. The meet with Central on October 21 looked like a cinch and so the boys took it easy in anticipation of the tough match due with Malverne, their chief rival, three days later. Consequently, three boys from Cen- tral gained a large enough lead late in the race to defeat Mepham by a single point. Because of the rule preventing a boy from running two races in the same week, Coach Tuthill sent the B team against Malverne on the 24th. They took a ter- rific pasting from Malverne's varsity, and so lost the first two meets in approximately two seasons. In spite of these two blemishes on an otherwise clean record, the team had a very successful sea- son. Coach Tuthill is to be congratulated on his handling of the boys.

By one- sided scores the grapplers easily took the measure of local schools like Lynbrook, Farmingdale, Long Beach, Bay Shore, Amityville, Oceanside, Central, Baldwin and Riverhead. Taking on the best mat squads of near-by states Coach Sprig Gardner's charges continued to roll up lop-sided triumphs. The out-of-state squads which fell before the grapplers included Providence, Rhode Island, For- ty-Fort, Pennsylvania, The Lancaster County Pennsylvania All-Stars and Norfolk, Virginia. The season Was climaxed when the Pirates took the S.S.A.I.. and Long Island Championship for the eleventh consecutive year. Sam Cario, Dick Lemyre, Hal Mahoney, Ed Mahoney, and Harry Korines Won S.S.A.I.. titles while Long Island Championships were Won by Sam Cario, Dick Lemyre, I-Ial Mahoney, Ed Mahoney, George Feuerbach, Jack Caulfield and Bob Snyder.

Cglmfzn CS-fa, After many years of being considered the Weak sisteru in the Mepham Inter-Scholastic Sports Program, basketball came into its own. Coach Gus Versocki's scrappy quintet ended the sea- son with a 13-5 record and a third place tie with Freeport in the South Shore Athletic League. Sparked by high scoring George Assmus, the Cagers defeated such top-flight squads as Sewan- haka, Freeport, Hempstead, Norwich, N. Y., and Troy. During the season, George Assmus scored 240 points to break his own school record. At Troy, he set an individual game record of 28 points. For the second successive year he has been chosen for the county all-scholastic basketball team. The play-maker of the squad was the erstwhile Sophomore Wonder turned Junior, Al LaBohm. Al finished second in total scoring. Wally La- Prarie, Bunny Ryan and Bill Milhaven rounded out the squad. Ryan and LaPrarie finished third and fourth respectively in individual scoring. Although Milhaven finished nfrh in scoring, his main value to the squad was on the defensive. LaPrarie, Milhaven, and Assmus were playing their last season for the Garnet and Grey, but LaBohm and Ryan will be back to form the nu- cleus of next year's squad.

Coach Winston Tuthill seemed at last to have a squad which Would deliver some hitting in the clutch. Lack of hitting strength had been the plague of Mepham's teams for the past several years. Coach Tut's hopes were supported by several veterans in the lineups. The pitching would be taken care of by the fireballer Al Graf and Jim Theberge. Veteran Jack Caulield looked to be the top man behind the plate. A battle was in progress at first base between Derek Strothmann and Ronnie Ryan, While little George Truitt seemed a likely prospect for the starting position at second. Bill Milhaven, also a veteran, was irmly entrenched at short, while John Arnold headed the field trying for the third base job. The outfield looked strong with Wally LaPrarie, Dick Moebes, Bunny Ryan and Wally Schulein fighting for the three positions. Facing an ambitious schedule, Coach Tuthill was able for the Hrst time in many years to field a nine', with a promising future.

Coach Sabetto's pre-season pessimistic line about the green team held as much water as it has in the past. With' such boys as Charlie Frizzelle, Charlie Wagner and Jerry DeFreitas returning, the team couldn't help but have a successful season. Frizzelle, at the season's opening, was the holder of two Mepham records, 10.1 in the 100 yard dash and 22.5 in the 220 yard dash. The team missed Bob Erdody, Henry Fischer, Bob MacCallum and Dave Cobb from last year's squad, and if there was a weakness in the Pirate aggregation, it most probably would have been in the field events. Charlie Frizzelle and Charlie Strang led the field, in the pre-season analysis, in the 100 yard dash. Frizzelle was also outstanding in the 220 yard dash. The longer distances seemed to be headed by Harry Garing, Charlie Wagner, Jerry DeFreitas, Joe Knudsen, Greg Raimondo and Don Rock. The cindermen looked especially strong in the relay. Frizzelle, Strang, Wagner and Bob Greaves looked promising in this event. Greaves and Strang were also possibilities in the hurdles. The weight events like the shot put and discus throw were headed by Johnny Kreutziger, Ben See, Al Brown, Roy Zilik and Walter Johnson. Lou Luba and Don Rock were the leading high- jump aspirants.

The boys did a good job but the fact that there still is room for im- provement is betrayed by the team's percentage Of .5 5 6. ' This season Mr. Livingston had to organize an entirely new team since all of last year's stars had graduated. As was expected, however, Jerry Rap- paport, Steve I-Iornstein, John Phillips, George Feuerbach, Ross Bear, Miles Portman and Frank Ellenbogen played dominant roles in the tryouts for places on this year's squad. Page fifty-four Q46 xglfllflflfelft Last Fall, Mepham's finman took an awful lick- ing from the Garden City team and finished only fourth at the annual S.S.A.L. tourney. This was a terrific let-down for our team since we had previ- ously held the South Shore title for three success- ive years. At the meet, which was held on September 12, Ken Boklan Hnished third in the 50 yard back- stroke event, Bill Huether finished fourth in the S0 yard free style event, Ed. Meyer took fourth in the 100 yard free style race, and Lou Luba placed third and fourth respectively in the breast stroke and the diving competitions. In the 200 yard relay, Bill Huether, Ed.

C2736 Wd Although the rifle team's seasonal average has improved somewhat over last year's mark, the squad lost considerable ground in the league stand- ings due to an unbelievable improvement in many of the other teams in the league. Several new school records were set, however. The high points of the season came when Walt Sturm twice won the individual championship of Long Island, first at the Long Island Press Rifle Tournament and later at the Sectional. This makes Walt the first student ever to bring any sort of rifle honors to Mepham. He also set a new individ- ual school record of 190. After the season was inished the rifle range was moved and enlarged so that we now have one of the biggest on the island. This year the squad worked under a handicap but it is expected that this improvement will ease the situation consid- erably. LZ 0... 6111. Str-r-ike! Another spare! These familiar words were heard at each Tuesday afternoon practice held in Bellmore Bowl . The team, one of twelve in the South Shore Athletic League, is coached by Mr. Ernest Schneider and captained by Harry Garmg. On Wednesday afternoons these boys were seen donning their garnet and grey bowling shirts and invading their opponents' alleys to pile up the pins. The really outstanding bowler of the team was Harry Garing whose average of 187 and individ- ual high score of 237 placed him among the best in the league. The team, however, lacked the depth to move up beyond 7th place in the league. RIFLE: Back row: W. Sturm, Mr. Cadro, Irwin. Kneeling: Reinhardt, R. Sturm, W. Schriever.

Unlike other schools, Mepham has a system whereby each student, with enough Willingness and ability in a certain field, not necessarily athletic, may earn his Varsity MD to mark him as Well-rounded in that activity. It can truthfully be stated that everyone who has a Varsity letter has memories of past enjoyment and valuable experiences.

Booker's last appearance, after four years of top musical activities, was at the Spring Arts Festival. The senior band had a successful away sea- son. They entertained at the Mineola Fair, and boosted the players, morale at each of our football games. Some of our young musicians participated in the fall all-state band and orchestra in Hunt- ington, the all-county group in June and a state contest in May. This state contest in May, which was held at Hastings-on-The Hudson, proved to be a great success. Our senior band Was the only band at this contest to receive a first rating, a most difficult achievement and Worthy of every Commendation. The Memorial Day parade and graduation exercises rounded out the band's activities. If you Wander into the music room some after- noon, you'll probably find Booker pounding the ivories, Frank Zagarino with his clarinet, and Gus Farina providing rhythm on the string bass. This gives a clue to our dance band's success and popu- larity in Mepham's activities. These Jolly Rogers were on hand to entertain at the concert with, among others, a medley arranged by Mephamis own alumnus Joe Neili fclass of '40j. Their de- lightful music was also heard at the Shamrock Social, the Sadie Hawkins Dance and the Skull and Bones production. Mephamis orchestra, played in assembly pro- grams and provided the music for one of the per- formances of High Gearn. They entertained at the Winter Concert and the Spring Art Festival, annual events which have always proved a great success. Mr. Pritchard deserves all the credit possible for his able direction and organization of these fine musical groups.

The script, written by choir members themselves, revolved around some of the best loved tunes of the day- I'll Be Seeing You,', Glocca Moraf' Dry Bones, Country Style, and Italian Street Song, to name a few-besides several sacred numbers and a finale of God Bless American. Americana was l Remember the Christmas Concert? not an operetta or a concert but an original musi- cal comedy depicting our life in America. The plot unfolds as a young Irish lad, Jack Cullen, tells of his travels through America in letters to his sweetheart, Barbara Silverman, whom he meets in Ireland then takes to America. Audrey Karpin did the choreography consisting of several original dances and two solo numbers. The choir also entertained the community with numerous other activities. The annual Christmas GLEE CLUBS Page sixty-six P THE A CAPELLA CHOIR concert with its beautiful and traditional candle- light procession was enjoyed by all as in previous years. The Spring Art Festival, on May 14, was a concert that choir lovers will always remember. Residents of Bellmore and Merrick will recall the cheerful caroling of the choir at Christmas and other local communities have been reached through their radio broadcasts.

Instead of the usual party given for the new members, the group decided to take a trip to the city. So on Lincoln's birthday, the Honor Society enjoyed a Wonderful meal and saw the Broadway play, High Button Shoesf, Page seventy On March 12, they held their annual St. Pat- rickis Day dance, this year called the Shamrock Social. The gym was decorated in a truly Irish style with shamrocks, hats and dancing couples. The wearing of the green was an admission re- quirement. In both December and May, the members could be seen around the halls memorizing speeches for their impressive inductions. The Honor Society has continued its traditions of Scholarship, Ser- vice, Character and Leadership.

As soon as Marjorie Liers, Attendance Officer, checked those present, Secretary Peggy Riker would read the Executive Committee's report. Then from 3:00 to 4:00 P. M., as done each previ- ous Monday, the members would discuss sugges- tions, make motions and vote on decisions. Each Wednesday the Executive Committee and their guide, Mr. Kinsley, met in his oiiice to pre- pare from the suggestions submitted by the home- room representatives the agenda for the following meeting. The House has done numerous things, among which are: the selling of milk in each cafeteria, which includes obtaining volunteers, making plans for the school calendar schedules 5 filling of Christmas stockings for veterans, collecting mon- ey for the Red Cross and Infantile Paralysis funds, and supplying people to sell tickets to away games. One of the main purposes of our House of Rep- resentatives, besides expressing student views, is to teach methods of parliamentary procedure. Cer- tainly each member, by Mr. Kinsley's ceaseless efforts and advice, has learned much along these lines, Which should prove very useful in later years.

Regardless of whether or not you understood French the musical meetings and refreshments certainly met with enthusiastic approval.

The B2 Club, formed only two years ago for the purpose of educating girls into society with the proper social manners, has grown to be one of Mepham's most active and successful organiza- tions. The club sponsors dances, parties, teas, serves and decorates for various school banquets, and twice yearly travels to New York City to have dinner and see a Broadway show. The party which they sponsored for the wrestlers from Providence was certainly a huge success. An equally successful party was given by the B2 Club at Christmas for the faculty.

The exhuberance We all felt Was further enhanced when, upon entering, we found the gym transngured from ordinary beige Walls to murals of the delightful, happy and utterly fantastic Spanish iiestas. It Was marvelous, We noted as We danced under soft lights that the paintings had been done by such creative artists as Joan Schramm, Peter Duvelsdorf, Frances Crocini and Joan Heise, who were our own classmates! Then too, with Dick Fales and his orchestra playing smooth music from 8:30 to 12:30--We couldn't help Wishing the evening would go on forever. Leaving for home, we agreed that it would be a long time before the atmosphere of the Latin- Amtricann Junior Prom would be forgotten at Mepham.

Our outstanding wrestler, Bob Snyder, was re-elected president. Cross-Country star Jerry Deldreitas became vice-president, our former treasurer, Gerry Wood, became secretary, and vivacious Peggy Riker was elected treasurer, So, we began our last year at Mepham. September to February, 1948 Dear Diary: Varsity sports, like football, basketball, and Wrestling can really reach a tumultuous pitch of excitement. In the deep silence of breathless ten- sions as the spectators Watched in agony lest their side lose, a piercing querelous cry Would rend the air- Candy! Who Wants to buy some candy?

DOLORES DYER As I gaze into my cloudy crystal ball, I see the world, not now but ten years hence. As the figures become clear, I see Fred Nau and Rolf Tobiason, co-owners of a lending library. Supplying the books, we find a large publishing company owned and operated by Harry Korines and Fred Nolan. Harry counts the money, puffing on a large cigar, in his big plush chair, while Fred is busy spending the money on wine, women and song. The strains of some very well known songs are heard in a swing beat, and upon the face of my crystal ball appear Booker Gibson and his Boogie- Woogie Hep-Cats. Next to him stands our own Gus Farina, better known as Cosmo, and his Comitesf' These two are competing for the top band position of the country. What,s this? It looks like a pretzel! Oh! It's Ed Mahoney all tied up in one of his wrestling holds, and can't get out! Here comes Cedric Peterkin, his manager, to untie him. Both Cedric and Ed are continually followed around by Margaret Clark, Barbara Bullock and Joyce Tapper. These girls have taken up cheering as a career. They have be- come national cheerleaders, and as a result have a press agent. This agent has also charmed Cedric and Ed into her web, and is reaping a great profit because she knows the secret of human nature. This unscrupulous agent and publicity woman is none other than the shrewd and clever Jean Elderr. Out of the depths of my crystal ball, comes the figure of Gerry Andersen shaking his head at Harold Gladstone. He,s saying, I'm sorry old boy, I just can't take the risk.', Harold is on his knees pleading with him- Please, you have to loan me the money. My wife and kids are starving, and after all remember that time I helped you on that test in fifth period Eng- lish? I'm not to blame if I didn't make a good radio announcer. V I now see Edith Jonasson as a talented and very rich young actress. Everything is faring well with Edith. But, into the picture steps the sinister and very sly Stephen Skon, who, having gambled his money away, has decided to make love to Edith with the hope of getting her to pay the debt he owes, and prevent him from going to prison. Well, if it isn't meek little Marie Murgolo going to the radio show to see and hear that new sensa- tion, Ken Baritone, croon. As she takes her seat, her heart is beating wildly and suddenly she real- izes that this gorgeous hunk of humanity is actu- ally that same old Ken Lloyd from her fifth period English class. What a thrill to have actually known him when! Down the winding stairs in the Salon de Grace comes lovely, glamorous, graceful, Mar- ian Averell, the fashion plate of the world. In the background stands Mademoiselle Colette Biegler, famed Parisian stylist, clapping her hands and ut- tering gleeful remarks about how well the made- moiselle wears her fabuluous creations. A change of scene now and we find in Florida, big, handsome, blond Charles Frizzelle, the world- known life guard, and lady-killer. He has just saved the first woman president of the United States, Margrit Peters, from drowning, and our eager and excited columnist, Barbara Weston, is on hand bubbling with enthusiasm to write the news about these two famous people. Too bad everyone's life couldn,t have been like Margie Cain's. Upon having been informed that after completing school, she would receive an inheritance, she cashed in on her rich uncle,s money. Who bumped him off, Margie? It seems to me, I see Jerry De Freitas as a bobby- sox idol having change his name to Jerry De Lover. Every time he sets his foot outside the door he is torn to shreds by his adoring public. Wait-one more picture is forming in my crys- tal ball. Ah, yes, I still see Miss Wilkenson slaving endlessly trying to help me pass the English Re- gents. Holy Smokes! This is the end!

Rosenthal BEST' WISHES BERNARD MORRIS THE SENIOR PLAY Biegler, stationed at the fortune telling booth, Was giving with those mysterious fortunes. Bob Cunningham and Pat Walsh, our Law-Abidingn sheriffs, who held the keys to a real old-fashioned country jail, had little trouble keeping Mr. Cal- houn and many other prominent guests out of circulation for a While. The refreshment commit- tee added the Halloween spirit by serving cider and doughnuts. Joan Heise and Frances Crocini, the co-chair- men, certainly did a good job of making the dance a real success. January 29, 1948 Dear Diary: Dancing in a Winter Wonderland, that was the Senior Snow Ball. We were truly enchanted by the decorations and lilting music which contributed in making a Warm atmosphere even though those frigid snow murals covered the Walls. At last the breath-taking moment arrived-the coronations! Handsome Red Snyder and charming Lillian Walsh were crowned King and Queen to reign over the ranks of the senior class by the co- chairmen, Joan Schramm and Dick Christy. But alas, the end finally came and We stepped from the artificial surroundings of snow into the cold reality of night agreeing that a good time Was had by all of us. fContinuea' on page 111j Page one hundred seven CHRISTY - WOLFE Insurolnce Agency 31 N.

Graf UTI-IE KING AND QUEEN June, 194 8 Dear Diary: This month has had us all in a flurry of ecstatic excitement. It began with the Varsity M banquet on the 12th. Then came regents. Oh, it was awful! Honestly, we thought we'd never be able to finish writing, and you have no idea how fear can para- lyze the human mind, especially a senioris when he reads a question and hasn't the slightest recogni- tion of the topic. We really struggled. But even after we knew the worst, we all had an especially wonderful time at the Junior Prom. It was the first dance since our Latin-American Fiesta a year ago June, that we had absolutely no painting, refreshments, posters, or decorations, to worry about. And to top it off perfectly, we, the mighty seniors, regally entered FREE! But life wasn't all bliss. We had rehearsals for graduation, frantic last minute class meetings and millions of things to do in order to completely terminate our careers at Mepham. Then came that wonderful day, Sunday, June 27, 1948, when, with a full audience of proud parents, we received our diplomas. As we left the school grounds, late that after- noon, there wasnit one of us who didn't look back and silently say good-bye to the building where we had spent four happy and profitable years. Page one lwmdred eleven Gmc one J 17 Joan Tantum The TREASURE CHEST is here complete, Thanks to a staff that wouldn't be beat- The work was hard and required ambition, But listen!-and hear the story of this edition. The air in 216 was hlled With electric sparks that crackled and spilled The fury of the Editor's rage Or Mr. Stunt's NOV, about a printed page. The friction of opposing ideas Mounted and ceded like Fury's tears 'Till Mr. Stunt intervened with a word, And each in turn the other heard. The hours, days and months went by, Each deadline met with a heart-rending sigh From editor Betty Jane Riis as she wiped her brow And asked in a weak voice, Are we ahead now?', The book must be ready in time for June This is no time for questions, get to work, and soonl' We turned and looked and all said Oh, yes! For they were the words of our adviser, Mr. F.H.S. So calculations continued with vigor The artists hunched at their benches with rigor- Joan Schramm and Peter paint-splattered and worried Held brushes in hand, and they too hurried. And then Joan Tantum, with a work harried pace Entered the room-a smile on her face. A cry left her lips-700-we've won! And yet there was work still to be done. There in the corner of the room Iris Horowitz studied with gloom Page one hundrecl twelve The work before her to be laid out But she would finish it quickly-no doubt! The photographer, Mr. Gerard, kept wit and humor intact While snapping 1200 eager Mephamites Whose antics couldn't crack His will to photograph us all, regardless of position or height. Meanwhile Stan Nodland raced here and there, Helping the photographer everywhere, They lifted and moved and clicked and carried, Tom Cummiskey helped but they all looked harried. Then Ken Heuermann from his tour through the town Would return and give us all a frown, The ads we had left aside 'till late Were now harder to get than a last minute date. And there in a huddle over by the door With papers strewn around them all over the floor Inez, Jane and Marion wrote on and on Shuilling words around 'till all write-ups were gone. And now that June has rolled around, we'd like to thank Virginia Clark A Junior, super-high-powered saleswoman, selling yearbooks on a lark And to those typists, writers and workers, each in his own degree, Go our praises, strong and heart-felt, for they helped make this book you see. Now the bookis completed and our work is done But we ind ourselves admitting it was an awful lot of fun. And just to end our story on a philosophical note We'd like for all of you to know Mr. Stunt gets our vote! For from his unerring, quiet, good counsel We learned and still believe- It is the blending of what each has to give That makes a yearbook really live.
