Mr. Hal Jones' Design For Learning Nears Final Form Mr, jones takes time out from more mundane duties to help pass out ribbons at Field Day. Many people know what it means to have a dream. Few people know what it means to have a dream come true. Still fewer people know what it means to have a colossal dream Come true. Hal jones is one of those very few people. From its very inception, Pem-Dayis Design For Learning Building Complex has been Mr. jones, personal dream. But it takes more than hoping and wishing to have a dream of this magnitude come true. It takes a lot of money, a lot of time, and a lot of work. Mr. Jones struggled hard to put these ingre- dients together to produce a dream. lt was not an easy task, but by watching Mr. jones strid- ing jauntily around the new campus, looking like a benevolent lord examining his estate, it seems as if it was all worth it. l 2 N

Business More Than Usual. . . The addition of the new buildings, grounds, personnel, and many other factors increased the financial responsibilities of Business Manager CB. Lueck, who found himself even busier than ever. As the year went on, he managed to re- store order to the chaos that prevailed at the beginning of the school year. This was no small task. The Raider staff has often expressed its sincere belief that Mr. Lueck is one of the greatest assets that any school could have. This feeling is not only borne out, but emphasized this year. Mr. Lueck may truly be called the Man Behind the Scenesf' The students, faculty mem- bers, and the frequent visitors to our campus see a well-functioning and often flawless per- formance without realizing the incredible a- mount of pre-planning and organizing behind it. The Design for Learningw may be well on its way toward completion, but Mr. Lueck and his department must face the fact that their jobs will never be finished. W Working in their make-shift offices while the big move was being made, Mr. Lueck and his secre- tary Mrs. Stitt outline their plans for the first year in the new buildings.
