galiiofzial ARLY last fall at one of the First Board of Directors' meetings of this school year, the question of having a year book here at Quincy was brought into view. Pros and cons were promptly expressed-with most of the pros from the students of course, and the cons from the faculty, with purpose. After considerable debate a committee of four was appointed to investigate the matter. This committee promptly got to work and sent for information, talked with experienced persons and found out about expenses. A report was given at the next board meeting and a vote was taken in favor of the year book. Our next job was to obtain the consent of the student association. It was decided to have the matter discussed fully at an assembly and the results of this assembly was the one hundred per cent vote of the student body. Next came the job of appointing a staff. Students were interviewed by the Board of Directors and notations were made as to the applicants' willingness to work, scholastic rec- ords, etc. We were soon ready to begin work and the business department, under the authority of Dot Thomas. began work. Day after day-Jim Barnes and Nick Baum, with their various as- sistants, brought in subscriptions and advertisements. The Powell Studios from Detroit sent down their representative to take the many fine pictures for the year book. The art angle was handled competently by Viv Reichardg Marilyn Sarber and Pat Houseknecht did a bang-up job on the senior sectiong sport sections were well taken care of by Joe Normandin and Irene Donnelly: the music department was headed by Doris King and many others, too numerous to mention, did a great deal toward completing the book. Their efforts are greatly appreciated. After numerous consultations with Mr. Zimmerman, our printer, about pictures, type- written work, etc., our material was turned over to him for the final stages of completion. Now you have our first year book in seventeen years. We think it is a fine book and hope that you are as proud of it as we, the staff are. Our thanks go to all who contributed to the publication of this book and especially to Mr. Emerich, who advised us in our work. Our hope is that next year the book can be bigger and better and may the staff have as much fun as we have had. Frances J ohnson, Editor-in-chief Robert Ki ng, Assistant Editor
