-ILLOHMET § § § § 1948 Mr. Tripp DEDICATION Mr. Tripp throughout his twenty-one years of service has been untiring in his efforts in behalf of Metropolis Community High School. The same could be said concerning his relationship with the community as a whole. He is never too busy to give a cheerful word or a note of encouragement to any student We. the Illohmet staff, wish to extend the thanks and appreciation of the student body to such an admirable person— one who has achieved one of the greatest honors—that of being called friend. In token of our gratitude we dedicate to Mr. Oliver H. Tripp the 1947-1948 Illohmet.
