Today, these Seniors are ours for the last time. Tomorrow, they will belong to the world for which they have been preparing. We, the Annual Staff of 1957, do hereby gratefully dedi- cate our WIMOAH to these Seniors who have set the pattern for the many classes in years to come.

Foreword This book, the 1957 WIMOAH, is a product of long hours of sweat and toil, miles of sidewalk trudging, the unending click of typewriters, and the eternal reminder of deadlines that had to be met. We have done all this willingly so that you may remem- ber the persons and events which are pictured and recorded, the enjoyment of our school life together, and the joys and sorrows of our year as classmates. This book is for you to enjoy-the record of this year's school history.

0 J ournallsm Nancy Ha fsos NANCY HAFs0S, senior and editor of the Wiomah, was selected by faculty vote as 1957's leader in journalism. To be outstanding journal- istically, means to understand the finest details from writing a mere page number to the major accomplishment of financing the project. Job performance above and beyond the call of duty has helped put Nancy in the beam of the leadership spotlight. Copy on time, copy correct, pictures scheduled carefully, accuracy to the last detail-these are Nancy's guides to success as editor of the Wimoah. Foresight to plan, hind- sight to avoid pitfalls, ability to switch horses in the middle of the stream, appreciation of the reader's point of view-all these take a person with understanding, patience, and persistence. Her thoughtfully planned steps in organizing the numerous duties required in preparing your yearbook produced a book with a record for smooth working with all the staff and her co- workers. We convey a tribute to her for her loyalty to a chosen task and for her capable management of a tremendous job. 6 Music wsu 'X' i I is Marcia Brown A hush spreads through the audience as MARCIA BROWN, a senior, raises a silver Hute to position and clear melodious notes thrill each and every listener. Marcia was acclaimed by vote of the faculty as the outstanding leader in music for many reasons. She gave unselfishly and rich- ly of her time and talents wherever needed as a soloist, voice or Flute, at the piano, as a member of a singing group, or as accompanist. In each instance the performance was certain to be dis- tinguished. As a soloist there was a rich sensitivity and delicacy in each of her performances. Though this array of activity would presumably be Mar- cia's limit, you'll also find her actively engaged in many student projects that require a top- notch worker, friendly and responsive. With such a busy schedule, what keeps the sparkle in her eyes? It must be because of her reliable char- acter, highly skilled and versatile talent, and loyalty to her associates and to herself. She in- deed deserves the honor so acclaimed.
