A well-liked student, Al has always been among the leaders of the Class of '61, Having laid a strong foundation in high school, Al can expect a highly suc- cessful future. RICHARD HAMILTON - RA Well Rounded Student -this term describes Rick perfectly. Scholastically, Rick has always ranked near the top of the class. In his first two years at Bonner, he was a member of the Swimming Team. As an upperclassman Rick belonged to the Booster Club, St. Edmund's Guild and was chosen Editor of The Bonner Bulletin. With this solid background behind him, Rick can look forward to a life of achievement. ,,.--. CHRISTOPHER MATTSON - Working quietly behind the scenes, Chris has performed many valuable services to his school. In sports, Chris was one of the mainstays .of the Crew. He was also a member of the St. Edmund's Guild and the Booster Club. Before dances, Chris could always be seen helping to decorate, and there were few of Bonner's dances that didn't receive that magical 'gMattson Touch. Combining these with his membership in the Dramatic Society, it can easily be seen why 'Chris is a Man of Bonner in the truest sense of the word. Great Vitality And Variety

' ' STANDIN' ON THE CORNER-MResponsibility for the order so necessary for the smooth functioning of corridor traffic in a school the size of Bonner is the task that confronts our Student Guards. Faced with the difficult task of preventing congestion in the halls and determined to get a swift and unobstructed flow of traffic, the guards do an excellent job. The corps of Student Guards is staffed entirely by Seniors, chosen for their excellent discipline records during their years at Bonner. Indeed, these men perform with competence and ably direct 3,000 students between periods daily. Undoubtedly every- one in the school, teachers and students alike, realizes and appreci- ates the efficiency of Bonner's GLGCHd31'HlCS.,, LONG ARM OF' THE LAW-The presence of the Student Guards is felt by almost everyone in the school, especially wayward underclass- men.
