The I947 Echo Staff To a small Staff, six in number, the success of this 1947 Echo is due. With Norma Frits and Jac Kerr working as Co- editors and Mildred Pearsall, Frances Peterson, Pat Walther and Roger Vickroy, assisting, the best Senior Year Book to date is now in your hands. It has an attractive cover-royal blue, the class color. It has many pages of interesting read- ing, many pages of pictures, it gives a complete resume' of school activities from September through Hay. It is an album of memories preserved for you through the coordinated efforts of the Echo Staff. It has meant long hours of cooperative drawing, of typing, stenciling and duplicating. It involves careful planning, the typing of many letters soliciting adver- tising through which most of the cost is defrayed. We hope you will enjoy the leer Book and that in years to come, as you sometimes turn its pages, pleasant memories of life at Port Byron High will awaken and you will relive your happy high school days. Norma Frits entered Port Byron High School in the fall of '43 from Port Byron Grade School.
