Holding the position of Yearbook iditor has seen some of the happiest loments of the year. A person gets a jreat feeling of accomplishment at look- ng through the layouts which he has lelped to perfect. Not only has this jork been a pleasure to me, but it has jiven me valuable experience which I sould not have obtained elsewhere or )therwise. When September of 1957 came, I had never dreamed that I was to be the co- editor of our yearbook, AURORA . Little did I realize at first what a fund of interest such a position has for a stud¬ ent. Working at the yearbook has become one of my main interests. Although there was some exacting work, there was always a great deal of fun to be derived in see ing the yearbook grow to maturity. My appreciation goes to my co-ed- Ltor, Reginald La Rocque; to our photo¬ grapher, Harold Cuts; to our treasurer, Claire Leonard; to our ads solicitors, Louise Comeau, Melba McDonald, Simonne Lafranchise, Lorraine Macmillan, and Ed- nund Bunyanj to our typists. Sister Pi- juette, Bernadette Ouimet, Phyllis Soe- baert, and Doreen Veness; to our artists Sister St. Germain, Sister Gaumont, Now- 311 Hinch, and Fred Richardson; to Bob Burton for the errands he ran for us. A special word of gratitude and praise goes to Sister Cote ' , for, with¬ out her help and direction, we would have been bogged down from the very be- ginning. Mr. Maloney, our principal, de¬ serves our thanks fcr all his whole¬ hearted encouragement. For the opportunity that they have given me, I would like to forward my heartfelt thanks to the student body of St. Albert High School. The best way in which I can do this is to offer them this issue of AUROFA . It has been the ambition of the whole yearbook staff this year, to make the yearbook bigger and better. Bigger it certainly is, and we hope it is bet¬ ter. The inclusion of more pictures of the elementary and junior high school grades should broaden its appeal. The parents and students, we feel assured, will find this innovation interesting . We have also included pictures of many extra-curricular events. I wish to thank all the members of the yearbook staff, especially Sister Cote, our staff representative, whose help and encouragement were the means of our issuing such a voluminous publica¬ tion. My gratitude goes also to Edward Martyna, our Editor, whose resourceful¬ ness helped us all along. In closing, I wish to thank all the students who have purchased this edition of ’ ' AURORA and hope it will bring you a great deal of enjoyment now and in future years. fa tfrc uSL. Co-Editor Editor
