IN APPRECIATION Coach Murray Being selected for the dedication of the Tuscolian is an honor that should be held by someone who is not only our teacher but our companion. It has taken a great amount of thought to find someone who meets these requirements. We feel that Coach Gene Murray is well suited for this dedication. In his 23 years at TCHS he has been active in coaching and teaching as well as unselfishly giving his time as Athletic Director. Through his personal and professional life Mr. Murray has instilled within us three fundamental rules for living: the desire to give our all in the attempt to succeed; the ability to accept defeat graciously if we have given our all; and above all, the knowledge that one must recognize the value of the individual as a person. 4

Welcome to the movies!! The stars? Tuscola High School students. The setting? Tuscola High School in the year 1981. This movie is free, and the scenes are permanent. The memories were caught in film, printed and placed in a program for the year. The movie is about a year in the life of a high school with its occupants coping with and adapting to everyday situations. If one looks hard enough, one may catch the stars in many poses, studying or having fun. Sometimes one may even find the stars arguing with the director. Soon, though, the lights will dim, the curtain will fall, and this premiere will be over. There will be many more premieres to come and many more new stars. Still, the subject of this movie will be permanently engraved in the lives of those who lived it. 3
