CLASS TEACHERS FORTUNATE indeed was the Class of A1941 when it was able unanimously to elect Mr. and Mrs. Mrrtz as class teachers early last fall. Since 1937 they had been friendly companions and helpful advisors to us all, and it has been both a privilege and an honor for the class to enjoy even a closer companion- ship with them as class teachers during this, our last year at Hermon. In the enjoyment of our parties and privileges, in the trials of our misfortunes, and in the solution of our problems the Mirtz' have been helpful, sincere friends of us all. As we leave the hill, we take with us a deep appreciation of the bene- ficial companionship we have enjoyed with these two special friends. The class would also like to express its warm gratitude to Mr. and Mrs. Petschke, Mr. Ledgard, Mr. Hadley, and Mr. Draeseke, its class honoraries, for their generous friendship and guidance during these past four years.
