Dedication Mr. Ford With sincere appreciation and admiration the 1961-62 Ranger Annual Staff takes pride in dedicating this yearbook to Robert G. Ford, an active member of the Roosevelt Faculty. Coming to us in 1952 from the old Elliot Elementary School, where he taught seven years, Mr. Ford has conducted classes in English and publications. Acting as advisor to the Annual Staff he aided in turning out six books. Due to his supervision the 1956 Ranger took second place nationally. The yearbooks added to Roosevelt's collection under Mr. Ford's advisory are fine examples of his capabilities in the field of publications, and in this spirit of good journalism, we dedicate the 1962 Ranger. 9
