In a short time, too, it will serve as some adult’s key to reminis- cense. A year has passed but memories shall not be forgotten; not as long as we cherish this yearbook. We preserve a small portion of our lives in this book to remind us of the highlights of our 1965-1966 school year. The seniors naturally find a great im- portance in this too brief an outline of their actions, for it is an end to their high school life. It also shows a beginning, for their education and activities recorded here are just a start. We place in your hands more than just a book, which required hundreds of hours of hard work; it is a tribute to you —your work, your fun, and your accomplish- ments. We present to you, this 1966 Ban- ner for a lasting remembrance of all that happened jn our school year. The Editor Alma Mater Hail to thee O Northern Cambria We with reverence sing to thee, Of our love and our devotion Of our faith and loyalty. We will cherish thy protection We will strive to win thee fame; We will thirst for thine affection We will always love thy name. 2

Dedication MR. J. E. JOHNSTON As elementary-school children, we soon learned one fact. Mr. Johnston was principal, this meant he would paddle us for bad conduct. His coming to our classroom evoked panic and pleasure. He looked big and maybe fierce. If he paddled . . . but he seldom did. Instead, he brought supplies and taught us to be thrifty with them. He heard us read and recite. He praised us and so we nearly waved our arms off to be called on. It felt special when he noticed us, for he had an expression of expectancy derived of smile and question and challenge. Grownups would say that Mr. Johnston gave to education his life, a life ennobled by strength of conviction, a life fulfilled through influence on this school district. We remember that Mr. Johnston guided our child-world. Because of him, and because of our teachers, child- hood was definite and simple. To our vision, the world held good: books and hawks, stars and oak trees. Some things were right. Some things were wrong. The paddle was there to clarify any confusion. These solid parts of a right plan shaped a school built on the foundation of belief and will of a firm and strong-set pillar. 4
