EDITORIAL AND MESSAGE THIS YEAR AND YEARS TO CONS l This was the year of Sputniks, the year of the Intercontinental Ballistics Missile, the year when science became so important that people began spelling it with a capital letter. It was also the International Geophysical Year. To commemorate these discoveries, the staff of The Terminal decided to develop the 1957-58 yearbook around a scientific theme. Thus, that likeable little character known as IGY (International Geophysical Year, of course) was created by Ron Huck for the pages of this book. Now, moreso than in any other period of time, students are pressed with the decision of whether to enter the field of science or go into some other form of study or business. For those blessed with scientific skill, the field of science offers endless opportunities. But, while the world is in need of scientists, it is also in need of business men, artists and skilled artisans — plumbers, grocers, teachers, mechanics, stenographers, musicians and paperhangers. This is an age of specialization, and it would be impossible for society to exist without many types of workers - workers who are willing to work with one another to build a better society for all men to live in. There is a place for every person in this world; and, while we cannot all be scientists, we can each do our bit to help produce a better world for all mankind. Now, while we are still young enough to make such a decision we must decide what our service to the world will be; and, having made that decision, we must study and prepare ourselves for the roles we have chosen to play. THE LAST WORD The Terminal staff of 1957-58 was indeed a fine one. Jim Kelly proved himself to be the ever-reliable, never- forgetting editor every adviser hopes to have; the section editors kept phoning the few delinquent reporters until they finally brought in all of their copy. Miss Stadelbauer, Ron Huck and the members of the Art Group took meticulous care with the illustrative work; Hr. Ramsey spent many long hours snapping photographs and developing them. Nr. Ferguson and his Booster Club members advertised our publication so veil that we had an almost one hundred per cent subscriptions list; Nr. Sharlow and his collectors brought in the money we had to have for such an ambitious undertaking. Large numbers of teachers helped from time to time during the year. Some assisted with proofreading, others helped with the preparation of works for the Literary Contest and of the biographies. Mrs. Shipley who typed the most of the book, and Mrs. Morris and Miss Birmingham who helped with other steno¬ graphic services were stalwarts of strength behind me; Mr. Wilcox and Nr. Bryan were ready with advice and as sistance whenever I requested it. It seems to me that this publication is an excellent illustration of what can happen when staff and students work together in harmony for a unified coal. May Viscount Bennett Junior - Senior High School experience many more years of this harmony of purpose. Finally, to all who aided me so graciously and willingly, my sincere thanks for your co-operation and counsel. You made my task of Production Adviser a pleasant one.
