The halls are silent until they begin bustling with activities of another school year. But we the graduating class of 1968 have only memories and a greater desire to learn more. Suddenly we are not so tall and not so smart. We turn toward a dark and uncertain tomorrow. Only there can we find the answers. So we set our goals high and strive to reach them. I would like to thank the X-Ray Staff for their assistance throughout the year, and especially Reina Hughes for her outstanding art work. Mr. Swick and the faculty for letting us interrupt classes for the taking of pictures. Gordon Morrow for his photography of the football games. Our advertisers for their support and financial assistance. Doris Smith for the many hours spent on photography in making this book possible. And especially Mitchell Baker for his guidance and assistance. THE EDITOR 124 ADVERTISING The Frick-Gallagher Mfg. Co.
