Our Superintendent and his staff look forward to a bright future Mr. Hodgins demonstrates his avid interest in school sports by attending every game and loyally supporting all team members. A picture is worth a thousand words. Exemplified in our Para- mus High School annual is the wisdom of this off-repeated proverb. As one views the beautiful photographs accompanied by the printed word, he is treated to a picture of Paramus High in action. The Delphian is a genuine example of the Paramus goal: A good day ' s work from everyone. For the many students and faculty members who have labored long to produce this finished product, they can feel proud of this accomplishment resulting from their good day ' s work. All our active students in Paramus High School, however, have made some contribution in varying degrees to your Yearbook as they continually strive to make our good school even better. To cherish this copy of the Delphian throughout the years is my sincere wish for each departing senior.

and his staff have faith in that future With that far-away look in his eyes. Mr. Dunn is seen engaged in one of his favorite pastimes, that of watching intensely all the school games in which the Spartans so actively participate. Mr. William V. Dunn Each page of this yearbook is a treasury of memories for me. Whenever reviewing this book, I am able to feel the spirit of Paramus High School. As a guide for people who have not had the opportunity to live in Paramus High School, I, as principal, would like to point out some basic characteristics of our school. In Paramus High School, emphasis is placed on the importance of the individual person whether he is a student, teacher, office secretary, custodian, bus driver or cafeteria worker. Each person is treated with respect and allowances are made for individuality. All people who live in this school community are encouraged by the general atmosphere of being concerned with the happiness and success of others. Paramus High School is a busy place. Citizens of our school community work diligently and receive the inner satisfaction that comes with accomplishment as individuals and as a group. I hope that each person who examines this yearbook will derive great personal satisfaction and inspiration from the pictures of wholesome young American youth and the chronicle of their activities as they approach maturity and citizenship in our great country.
