Foreword 'gThe most important thing in the Olympic games is not to win but to take part. Just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. This quotation by Pierre de Coubertin, one of the original founders of the Olympics, appeared on the huge lighted score- board on the opening day of the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City. The theme of NOlympics l9687' has been chosen by the Annual Staff for this yearbook. This theme is fittingly appropriate in more ways than one. For instance, the above quotation can be applied to the attitude for Mission High School. The most important thing in attending school is not to obtain all the honors and acheivements possible but to partic- ipate. A more familiar paraphrase would be, 'gIt's not whether you win or lose, but how you play the gameff The symbol of the Olympics is the eternal flame. This also could pertain to MHS. A flaming torch is often used to stand for education, as is seen in the National Honor Society emblem. Behind the extracurricular activities, sports and other areas of competition, the basic principle and goal of the school is education. This seems to be a statement of the obviousg even so it illustrates the parallel between the torch of educa- tion and the Olympic torch. Another symbol of c'Los Juegos Olimpicosn is the five intertwined circles. Containing all the different colors of the flags of the world, these circles symbolize the unity or intertwining of all the countries. As the theme of the yearbook and the engraving on the cover, this ensignia also stands for unity in MHS. ln the 1968 Annual all the activities of the year are brought together, remembered and 'iunitedf' Different as each of the activities may be they all go together to make up one of the greatest years ever at MHS. 2 T he .aa fi ..v 5.37: gf' 1!fL.,5g.,s,5t, 5,515 v P new-WMM .M Zee' VW .

Dedication - Courleous, soft-spoken, somewhat diffident ---- this is a first impression, but it underlies the whole. Possessed of an aesthetic sense, well-read, knowledgeable in the arts, alert and informed in current affairs---these are traits which delineate the person. Patient enough to teach English, dramatic enough to evaluate our high-school actors critically, astute enough to coach debate---this versatility is his. Who is this? Who can it be? Only one name answers the question: A young man who goes to work in a young peopleis camp in the East during vacation Qwhere he himself gets edueationj, a teacher who establishes with students a rapport which makes him a favorite A4 lVlr. Dennis Guion - to whom the Senior Class dedicates the EAGLE of 1969. :.w.f'x7':'w. -Lnzi,-ms , , f-- 'ja I 'LQ 1: Qr -rg-' 'P A1 1 f wr-1 ..-:,,j,,g -1--sp , N we -+-1--rf, -'t-- :- PF 1 ,jf-212' 'ff l lf?fW71 fg4q ?f,:fv'iT15i5'ip'!' yi 'im ,Ef f giiifi TY!-QQQ5 5 v 25725 iff 'ff sf.: -:qv L, .mi-' 5 Q.
