OSMER J. BROOKS 1968-69 was a HYear to Rememberu to me because it was the completion of 35 ' years of a good life, C33 at Whitney Point Centralb in the teaching profes- sion. During that time I have made many friends, and also a few enemies, but the pleasure of working with young people . has been rewarding and if I were able to Osmer Brooks choose a future at this time I am sure ViC9 PFinCiPa1 that I would make the same choice of a ' profession.

fx MRS. CORCORAN-A YEAR TO REMEMBER For the seniors this has been a year to remember, as they have culminated their plans, projects and high school activi- ties and now will face the future with success in proportion to their individ- ual efforts and interests. For the soph- omores the year has meant adjustment to a new school, new teachers, new activi- ties and, hopefully, time well spent in their young adult world. For the jun- iors, there has been a sense of security because they got settled last year and have one more year to go. Then they will be the first class to really have used the new school for all their senior high years. ,aww-, - ,.,,,m,f,v.,t-,,,n, 1 Tressa Corcoran Senior High Prin.
