Senior Sigurds RepresentTheBest Of Glass Of1963 During no period of life are character traits more decidedly developed than dur- ing the years of high school. In these four years personal integrity, responsibility, and reliability play leading roles in the stu- dents, transition into adult society. How- ever, some students have shown greater maturation than the majority and will leave Norland excellently prepared for their future lives. In 1960, the first Valhalla was published. Ten students were selected by a committee composed of delegates from the faculty, ad- ministration, and student body, as out- standing representatives of the senior Class. Subsequently, each year, a select group of graduating seniors is chosen for their ac- complishment in several of the phases of development during their school careers. Successfully applying oneself in many direc- tions at once requires both stamina and dedication. In addition to editing the That , TONI CARAMEROS has the distinctions of belonging to the National Honor Society, Quill and Scroll, and the Sorrota Service Club. Athletic prowess, leadership, and scholastic achievement have marked the career of MIKE GILES. Mike has been a member of the Nat tional Honor Society and Mu Alpha Theta, as well as a varsity letterman in these sports and president of his junior class.
