DD N lfAX'Clf The NORTH STAR staffs present a year's flight of North Tona- awanda High School which centers about the modern industry . . . Av1Ar1oN. The officials associated with the N. T. H. S. field and its pilots include the president, vice-president, engineers, field commanders and instructors. Each student is the pilot of his own plane under the direction of his teachers as instructors and his deans as flight commanders. In order to be a successful flier, each pilot must make the most of his opportunities and give his best attention while he is training. From the time the pilot enters the control room Cofficej of the hangar Cschooll to arrange his course until he graduates, he ex- periences four vital years of study and observation which are illus- trated on pages nine to thirty-six. The curricular and extra-curricular activities in which he participates most energetically often indicate the kind of advanced pilot he will become. A good pilot should be physically fit. When he enters N.T., he undergoes a physical examination. He must be mentally fit, so by test his talents are discovered - these physical and mental exam- inations reveal his skills and make him a finer and more successful individual in any field into which he may plunge. The report cards which serve as barographs are sent home eight times a year and the annual spring open house program is comparable to an aeronautical exhibit which is open to the general public. The yearbook producers include the art staff which designed the small cuts throughout the book, the cover, end sheets, and division pages which are colorfully illustrated by the silk-screen process. A group of students willingly and successfully gave their time in assisting with all the photography except the individual student pictures. After several weeks of planning the lay-out, the editorial staff met regularly to discuss and compose literary con- tent. Enthusiastic typists neatly arranged the written material for the editor and the printer while the business workers whole heart- edly obtained the financial backing for the activity. These staffs have aimed to present a literary and pictorial view of a year's flight which will prove significant as time flies by.
