A. “Tub” Chcancy Born October 12, 1916: Died April 22. 1968 “I believe that every student should enjoy some success each day.” This was the philosophy of Mr. H. A. “Tub Chcancy. He was a man who would rather light the fires of learning than criticize the darkness of ignorance. His unselfishness of others went unnoticed at times because it was always there. May his courage and honesty live on among his friends, for we can only salute him in silence. Robert Molina Mora. Jr. Born Junc 4. 1931: Died October 11.1968 Gordon B. Lee Born December 9, 191 2: Died September 1 2. 1968 A man of intellect and understanding. Gordon B. Lee was deeply involved with the students he knew and taught. The number he influenced, helped, and encouraged will never be known. Mr. Lee. with a seemingly gruft and crusty exterior, was warm and friendly to those with whom he worked. He spent countless hours assisting students in their school and extra-curricular activities, more often as not, on his own time. Young people were his job and his job was his life. He will be sorely missed. . .and long remembered. 3 LOYAL SONS OF PSJA SEND A VALLEY CHEER ON HIGH AS OUR LOYAL SONS GO MARCHING ONWARD TO VICTORY!!! 6 SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS Mr. Dean Skilcs B.S., M.S.

Now, I know there was nothing to be scared of because this year at P.S.J.A. has been my life’s greatest experience. I will cherish the memory of all the friendship and hospitality you have shown me for the rest of my life. You have all done what you could to make this year a most wonderful experience. Thank you for every day 1 spent here, for every smile you gave me, for all of the interest you showed, and for all the knowledge you shared with me. I hope that if any of you ever come to Norway, you will come to see me on my home island, Haroy.
