He gains his greatest satisfaction from befriending R.H.S. students and helping them toward discovering a more meaning- ful and beneficial life. He came to R.H.S. as a Junior and the following year he was named all-C.B.L. tackle. After gradution he attended U.C.L.A. where he again won recognition in foot- ball. He played on the Bruin varsity team for three years; then his football career was climaxed when he played in the Ro se Bowl, January 1, 1954. In June of that year he was graduated and then entered two years of service in the U.S. Navy. Although he originally planned to be a rancher, his interest in young people led into the teaching profes- sion. He first taught in Riverside, but returned in 1959 to his Alma Mater, as a math instructor and coach. On the playing field he emphasizes hard, but clean play. His J.V. football teams have responded to his leadership, in turn, by winning all but two games in the past three seasons. His strict discipline and lack of self glorification have been a constant inspiration to his students. Outside his teaching life he has become involved in both church and community activities. His popularity with young people has increased through his work with Young Life and Lite House. Therefore, with pride we dedicate this 1966 AAAKIO to Mr. Lawrence J. Britten.

Debbie Fitzgerald Editor Dear Makio Staff, We are young, we are alive, we ore the future! Congratulations, Makio staff . . . your yearbook has truly captured this theme . . . you have been creative and diligent throughout this entire year, one marked by the usual problems and ironical turns of fate. You have all contributed greatly to the success of this book. My special thanks can only be inadequately ex- pressed to veterans Cindy and Sandy Smith, my two right-hand men without whom I could not hove possibly functioned effectively. Other bouquets should be handed to Barbara Hegyssey, who drew our excellent lettering, Linda Hinkle, who created our gem — the theme, and Rick Krantz, who in addition to his duties as Sports Edi- tor, did a great deal of photography. Finally, the entire staff, section editors, and photographers, who all per- formed so beautifully, deserve, too, the highest praise for their endeavors. Thank you! De]ob;e. . 4-:
