MR. Bridge and his dog Puma settle down for a quiet evening in 1973. See the resemblance. MR. and Mrs. Bridge on their wedding day in 1965 What a mistake she made. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING YOU GAVE US The 1979 edition of the Reflection is proudly dedicated to Mr. Robert Bridge. Mr. Bridge is a fantastic human being who was always there when someone needed help or advice. Besides teaching us the important facts of history, he also talked to us about current events, and he taught us about life in general, which is just as important as the in- formation in our history books. Mr. Bridge is also a talented football and track coach who molds his teams into close-knit families that work together as a unit. We realize that suc- cessful coaches move up the ladder and that it is quite possible that he will leave South Adams in the near future. Hopefully, he will remain at South Adams a little longer in or- der that many other students and athletes will be able to receive the benefits and enjoy- ments that we have for the last four years. We would like to express our sincere apprecia- tion, gratitude, and respect to Mr. Robert Bridge, a highly respected man in our eyes, for making our last four years in high school, four of the most memorable that we will ever experience. Wc wish the best for you in the years ahead, and we hope that someday our paths will meet again. Thanks for everything from the Class of 79. MR. Bridge relates to members of the boys ' track team. SHOWN with his mother when he was 18 months old. SHOWN after his selection as an All-Catholic, Ail- American for the third consecutive year in 1962.

HONOR student Gretta Lehman attempts to get a peek at her classmate ' s paper. TWO professors of bubbing show their talent. AN INTRODUCTION TO THE BOOK ON these two pages we will attempt to give you a little peek at a few of the activi- ties, functions, sporting events, and people that are involved in the school and that will be shown later in the book. There were numerous new and different, not to men- tion interesting and exciting, ideas intro- duced into the school program. Several people introduced the fresh ideas which helped to lighten the sometimes-boring days. It was an outstanding year for every- one involved at the school, and there were many standout performances registered in several fields. The last year of the decade was a vast year of change because of the new teachers and administrators that made their presence known at our school and the fresh ideas that these people and others introduced. 1979 was a good year at the high school, and hopefuUy the coming years in the 80 ' s will be just as good or better than this last year. THE greatest and last year of the decade. I cari ' t believe that my locker can look so bad THE cruelest English teacher on this side of the Mississippi tries hard not to laugh.
