DEDICATION We dedicate the 1948 Rocket to Miss Edna E. Hauke whose record of thirty-eight years of service and experience is equalled but by few teachers in Montgomery County. She has been a member of the Richard Montgomery faculty for twenty-two years, during ten of which she has concientiously performed the duties of Vice-Principal. It is always to her that we turn for knowledge of traditions, records, and graduates. We are indebted to Miss Hauke for her active part in nurturing the first organization for the improvement of scholastic standing and student citizenship in Richard Montgomery. We honor her for her faithfulness and loyalty to her chosen profession and to our school.
