We, The Class of 1959, dedicate this yearbook to the Memory of Milton A. Heckman, senior advisor and mathematics teacher, who died on January sixth after a very brief illness. Mr. Heckman, a graduate of North High School, returned to his alma mater as a teacher and coach in 1931. During his twenty-eight years of service as a teacher and educational leader he made a great impact on all with whom he came in contact. He was strict but always impartial. He worked diligently to attain the goal he had set for himself and his students. He Will be remembered by the students and faculty of North High School for his courage and forth- rightness. MILTON A. HECKMAN Teacher Coach Educator

FRED ESSIG Assistant Superintendent May I congratulate the Silhouette Staff on its selection of the yearbook theme a ttTime is Passing. Recognizing the value of time reflects maturity of thought. Time, itself, is a priceless possession. There is no price tag attached. It cannot be purchased; neither can it be sold. Ex- pressed in terms of the future, time is, by far, the most treasured of all gifts that graduates may receive at commencement time. The Giver of all good and perfect gifts asks only that it be used wisely and well. My sincere wish for each member of the Senior Class is that he may guard the gift of time closely, lest it slip through weak fingers - that he may use it as a helpful ally that will bring him many years of happiness and success.
