The year I958-I959 saw news made everywhere from our hometown to the new tenth planet, Mechta, some 22 million miles in outer space. Russia and the U. S. competed like two boys in a rock- throwing contest as each tried to out-orbit the other. Meanwhile, both talked of peace as they watched each other like two scorpions in a bottle. News commentators were hard pressed to find enough reporters to bring us news from the far separated trouble spots. For reasons sometimes clear-sometimes vague-there were troubles in Cuba, South Africa, the Congo, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, Formosa, Cyprus, Berlin, etc. World leaders during '58 and '59 were Hammarskiold at the U. N., Eisenhower of the U. S., Macmillan of Eng- land, DeGauIle of France, Adenauer ot Germany, Khru- shchev of Russia, Mao Tse-tung of Red China, Nehru of India, and a host of other lesser ones. The world was saddened by the death of Pius XII, one of the greatest of popes, but gladdened by the election ofthe amiable Arch- bishop Roncalli as Pope John XXIII. At home, integration problems kept some schools closed all year. Alaska was admitted as the 49th State, and a strongly democratic congress strove to get along on an incredible 79 billion dollar budget. In New York, Rockefeller succeeded Harriman as Gov- ernor. In medicine, doctors appeared to be getting closer to a cancer cure. In literature, Pasternack's Dr. Zhivago was awarded the Nobel Prize. ln sports, the world went mad about the hula-hoop, the Yankees and Baltimore Colt: were world champions- In entertainment, the kids watched everything from Maverick to Zacherley of Shock Theater. The Big Country, The Last Hurrah, and Ben Hur were the best movies. Conway Twetty, Cozy Cole and Pat Boone sang songs like The All-American Boy, The Wind and the Rain and Queen of the I-lop. O Faculty and Senior portraits and group underclass pictures are by Mr. George Davis ol Davis Studios. All others are by the Camera Club under the supervision of Br. R. T. Unsworth. The EDMUNDIAN is published by William T. Cooke Publishing Co. of Philadelphia. Technical advice was by Mr. .lohn C. Ursprung, Jr. of the same firm. The cover is by Kingskraft Co., Kingsport, Tennessee. All editorial work was done by the EDMUNDIAN stat? under the direction of Br. R. T. Unsworth.
