Each of us, as a Sub-Freshman, was eager to meet the challenge of his high school career. We wanted to get in the swing of our new surroundings. Elections were held in the homerooms for representatives to the Student Council, Red Cross, and WI HI NEWS. Twenty-four subs sang in the operetta College Days. Our representa¬ tives in the May Court were Connie Cooper, Linda Curtiss, and Kaye Wolf. The next year with the division of the school into the Junior High and Senior High, we could not help but realize the importance of our work and the responsibility of our leadership as the seniors of the Junior High. The class diligently tackled the job of creating a Student Council constitution and elected Michael Bloxham President. Our other officers were Russell Smith, First Vice-President; and Sue Stein, Second Vice-President. The Alma Mater was written by Janice Hearn, and the school song, by Anne Johnson. At the completion of our F reshman year, awards were presented on Honor Day to the students who had been outstanding in various aspects of school life. Sophomores! A new and beautiful school! Also underclassmen again! We had many adjustments to make and started by electing our representatives, joining clubs, participating in sports, and serving on committees. The Sophomore Leap Year Dance was well attended. Linda Curtiss represented our class in the Winter Carnival. May Court attendants were Judy Bozman, Gail Curtiss, and Kaye Wolf. How important we felt to be Juniors! In rapid succession various memorable events followed. The elected Junior Class Officers were Rocky Burnett, President; Michael Bloxham, Vice-President; Judy Bozman, Secretary; and Frank Lewis, Treasurer. The Student Council officers from our class included Michael Bloxham, Second Vice- President; and Anne Skirven, Secretary-Treasurer. The successful presentation of Mother Is a Freshman as the Junior Class Play was the result of hard work by the cast, directors, and committees. Judy Bozman represented us in the Winter Carnival Court. Everyone who attended had a marvelous time at the Junior Dance. We honored the Seniors at the Junior-Senior Banquet, realizing that we would assume the position as top rank¬ ing class the following year. The May Court attendants from our class were Judy Bozman, Connie Cooper, and Judy Rayne. Sally Thornton was chosen by the American Field Service to visit England as our summer exchange student. The wonderful last year as students of Wi Hi went by all too ' quickly. Elections began with those of Senior Officers: President, Frank Lewis; Vice-President, Steve Cooper; Secretary, Linda Curtiss; Treasurer, Betsy Culver; and Historian, Gail Curtiss. The position of Wi Hi News Editor was filled by Noel Farmer. The Tom Tom staff was ably headed by its editor, Susan Howard, and her co-workers: Anne Johnson, assistant editor; Diana Chambers, associate assistant editor; and S. J. Disharoon, business manager. Michael Bloxham again served us as a capable Student Council President. The First Vice-President, Rocky Burnett, organized the monitor system and the assembly programs. We were also proud to have Anne Skirven as president of the Lower Shore Student Council. It was an honor to have as our exchange student, Leila Lindfors, from Finland. We will always remember her as a fine ambassador of her country. Leila reigned as Queen of the Winter Carnival. Many deserved credit for helping to make the Senior Class Play, Gown of Glory, a true success. The four top winners of a current events test, Donald Davis, Frank Lewis, Connie Cooper, and Bruce Downes, were chosen to attend the Herald Tribune Fomm in New York. The entire class spent an enjoyable, rainy day visiting the Mary¬ land legislature in Annapolis. The Junior-Senior Banquet reminded us that we would soon be leaving our high school. We will take with us our cherished memories of the May Dance, the Senior Awards, and especially the Prom. Baccalaureate and Commencement brought our wonderful high school years to a close.

Since they had been among the first to meet Mr. Corddry, the sophomores enjoyed knowing one person in their new school whom even the upperclassmen hadn’t yet met. Mr. Corddry, the former principal of Aberdeen High School, replaced Mr. William B. Jones who was Wi Hi ' s principal for nine years. 64 THE WICOMICO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL BAND Anyone who has ever attended Wi Hi has definitely heard and seen the band. When they aren’t performing, they are practicing. Football games just wouldn ' t be the same without the band, which plays in the stands during the game and on the field at half time. At pep rallies you can hear the band playing for all they are worth while the student body cheers. Radio and television give the public a chance to enjoy our band, and in Feb¬ ruary outstanding band members were chosen to represent Wi Hi at die annual Maryland All-State Band in Hagerstown. In April our band presented its annual concert, featuring the Poet and Peasant Overture, Finlandia, and many other selections. April also found the band in College Park for the Maryland State Band Festival, where bands from all over the state make appearances and are graded on their performances. The band’s activities continue into the summer when it gives eight concerts in city park. This year the band performed under the capable leadership of Mr. Wallace Duyer, the new director.

AUDUBON SOCIETY Wl HI DANCE BAND The Wicomico Senior High Audubon Society is a junior branch of the National Association of Audu¬ bon Societies, the largest conservation group in the world. The purpose of the club is to further the under¬ standing of the problems of conservation in this and other areas of the United States. The various projects of the club are: a nature trail, a weather station, and field trips to local spots of interest such as the Holly Block, the Choptank River to see the swans, and a mink farm. Fifteen students and Mr. Wallace Duyer compose the Wi Hi Dance Band, a combo which produces out¬ standing swing music. An important date for the group was February 14, when they played for a sock hop following that evening ' s basketball game. They have also performed for the Lions ' Club, before the student body at an assembly, and on The Eastern Shore Today over WBOC-TV.

With the help of Miss Farlow, their faculty adviser, and nurses from Peninsula General Hospital, they investigate various oppor¬ tunities open to members of the profession. Projects of the club included visits to hospitals, the annual installation of officers, and a three-year scholarship at Peninsula General Hospital for a club member. Money for the scholarship was raised through dues, serving at banquets, and working in the concession stand at basketball games.

FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA The Wicomico Senior High School Chapter of the Future Teachers of America had a very active year. Over seventy students attended the first meeting, after which it became necessary to limit membership by the following qualifications: a C4 average and a sincere interest in teaching. Enthusiasm ran high all year. The delegate to the Westminister MAFTA Convention, Louise Parsons, brought back several new ideas to improve the monthly meetings. Activities included: serving at banquets, operating the concession stand at basketball games, holding a sock hop, sponsoring an assembly, providing a scholarship for a graduating member, and the installation of officers. Mrs. Dick, the sponsor, was very helpful in maintaining spirit and assisting the officers.

THE STUDENT COUNCIL COMPLETES ANOTHER BUSY YEAR The Student Council welcomed in the new school year with its first meeting on September 13, led by Michael Bloxham, President; George Burnett, 1st Vice-President; Bob Caldwell, 2nd Vice-President; and Cynthia Elliott, Secretary-Treasurer. The faculty advisor was Mr. Robert Eckert. Each year the council strives to promote the interests of the school, help improve teacher-student relationships, and provide a better school life through organized activities. In working toward these goals, several major pro¬ jects were undertaken. Among these were a clean-up campaign, the operation of the concession stand at football games, the establishment of an efficient monitor system, and the raising of the money to bring another foreign exchange student to Wi Hi. A number of dances were held for the student body, including the annual Winter Car¬ nival and the May Dance.

Many think the actual newspaper story is fascinating. Here’s how the “Wi-Hi News” staff succeeds in publishing the school newspaper: First, the editors assign the available stories, and the journalism class decides upon what pictures and illustrations to feature in that issue, as well as which students to honor by a place in the “Hall of Fame.” Then the reporters gather the material and write the articles. After all the stories have been carefully copyread, they are typed and sent to the printer. He returns the “galley proofs,” which are checked by the proofreading committee for possible printing errors. The corrected proofs are re¬ turned, and soon the “Wi-Hi News” is available to all the interested Wi-Hi students. Even for those who are not planning careers in the jour¬ nalism field, helping to publish the “Wi-Hi News” is a worthwhile, interestine. and enjoyable job.

MU ALPHA THETA THE STAG The first charter chapter of Mu Alpha Theta in Maryland elected as its officers this year: Frank Lewis, President; Susan Howard, Vice-President; Anne Johnson, Corresponding Secretary; and Diana Chambers, Recording Secretary. The purpose of this national high school and junior college mathematics club is to stimulate deeper and more effective interest in the field of mathematics. Members are elected on the basis of superior achievement in the field and must have had five semesters of mathematics and maintain a B 4-average in the subject. Other students may become associate members by showing special interest. The club investigates interesting sidelines of math and finds the study interesting as well as informative. The club was represented in several mathematics contests during the year. The Stag is the only known mathematics publi¬ cation in the United States which is edited by high school students. The paper was an outgrowth of a round robin letter in which Wicomico High School participated. The newspaper, published four times a year; is given free of charge to all interested students. Rosa lie Sherwell was elected by members of the junior mathematics classes to serve as editor with students from the various classes making up her staff. The name, STAG, is derived from: Students of Trigonometry, Algebra, and Geometry.

THE SENIOR CLASS PRESENTS “GOWN OF GLORY” On December 5 and 6 in the Junior High School Auditorium, the Senior Class presented Gown of Glory, a three-act play by Irving Phillips based upon a book by Agnes Sligh Tumball. The play concerns the trials and tribulations of a Presbyterian minister, David Lyall (Bob Taylor), and his wife Mary (Susan Howard) as they rear their three children in the Ladykirk parish at the turn of the century. Mrs. Lyall is upset because her husband has never been called to a larger church, and nothing the minister does seems to please the Committee for the protection of the minister ' s family ' s morals. First there is Reverend Lyall ' s friendship with Mr. Dilling (Joe Buracker), the local good for nothing, and then Lucy Lyall (Susan Dashiell) falls in love with Ninian Ross (S. J. Disharoon), a rich playboy from Pittsburg, whom she mistook for a book salesman. Jeremy Lyall (Mike Kitzmiller) wants to give up his father ' s dream for him of becoming a minister and marry Peggy MacDonald (Gail Curtiss). Faith (Susan Yates) is twenty-four and unhappy because she sees no prospect for marriage in Ladykirk except John Harvey (Layne Kerley), a boring country bumpkin. For awhile the situation worsens. There is no word from Ninian for months so Lucy runs away to find him. His mother is greatly opposed to their plans of marriage, having other plans for him in society. An expected offer from the Moreswell parish fails to materialize, and the family never seems to find the money for Mrs. Lyall ' s long awaited kitchen cabinet. Everything works out in the end, however, as Ninian and Lucy are happily reunited with the blessings of Mr. and Mrs. Ross (Jerome Sterling and Joan Manzione). Mr. Dilling reforms because he plans to marry a Christian woman, (Peggy Johannes), Faith meets her Prince Charming (Franklin Cooper), and Mrs. Lyall gets her kitchen cabinet. Bill Bennett played Joshiah Hunt, one of the town characters, while Tom Peterson, Lin Turner, Rosalie Farlow, Joan Wharton, and John Cotton comprised the Committee. The part of Mrs. Jenkins, the Lyall ' s amusing house guest, was taken by Diane Campbell. The play was directed by Miss Nelle Ballentine. Stage Director was Bob Fisher; Connie Johnson and Marian Pollitt were prompters. The cast owes much of its success to the work of the committees and their faculty advisors, Mr. Guiliano, Mrs. Dick, Miss Matthews, Miss Helen Warren, Mrs. Taylor, Mrs. Scott, Mr. Purnell, Mr. Giffin, and Mr. Roche. Behind the scenes committees, such as Make-up, are important to the success of a play. Reverend Lyall faces a stormy session with the committee.

THE WINTER CARNIVAL In the fantasy of a Winter Wonderland our exchange student from Finland, Leila Lindfors, was crowned the 1958 Winter Carnival Queen by Mike Bloxham, President of the Student Council. Composing her court were Joyce Murray, the junior representative, escorted by Steve Cooper; and Susan Briele, the sophomore representative, es¬ corted by John Porter.

THE JUNIOR CLASS PRESENTS “ONIONS IN THE STEW” Onions in the Stew, a three-act light comedy by Betty MacDonald, was presented by the junior class on March 27 and 28 in the Junior High School auditorium. The play concerns the experiences of the MacDonald family in their newly acquired home on Vashon Island off the Puget Sound. The reactions toward the move from Seattle are mixed. The home originally is the dream of Betty (Connie Rodbell) and her husband (Ed Banks) is skeptical while the girls (Nancy Emerson and Louise Parsons) are dead set against it. Problems concerning boy friends, a snow bound winter, bad plumbing, and various neighbors fill the family ' s life and, while they don ' t realize it, enrich it. Other members of the cast of twenty-six included Bob Caldwell, Bruce Bowers, John Porter, Jane Ellen Bounds, Gwen Matlack, Sylvia Brittingham, Sandra White, Kay Webster, Christie Carter, Joanna Cato, Jack Levering, Tom Taylor, John Routenberg, Marjorie Pol¬ litt, Margaret Ann Bethards, Barry Mears, Albert Parks, Ebba Christensen, and two young children, Sharon Brittingham and Paul Rodbell. John seems to be Louise ' s most pressing boy problem. Moving proves just too exhausting for the unenthusiastic family. A full brigade of plumbers is kept busy at the island home.

Every minute of the last days had seemed so very precious and the word last was heard many times. This is my last study hall. . . our last lunch hour. . .my last test, yippee! There was an almost frantic rush to live every minute to its fullest for we knew that soon this important part of our life would be a distant memory. Yet we looked forward to the future with hope and faith, as well as some trepidation. We had chosen our motto: With the ropes of the past, we ring the bells of the future and we knew that the days we had spent at Wi-Hi had made these ropes strong. As we step into that future--whether it be college, the armed forces, marriage, or our chosen vocation--we shall carry with us fond memories of our school, our teachers, our classmates, and most of all--the many good times we ' ve had at Wi-Hi. Students enjoy practicing for Commencement. 95 From L. to R.: Mr. Eckert, Don Davis, Connie Cooper, Bruce Downes, Frank Lewis.

JUNIORS AND SENIORS ENJOY CAREER DAY A day full of hearts and minds intent on the future was November 20, 1957, when the third annual Career Conference was held here. The junior and senior classes of the Wicomico County high schools attended Career Day, which was begun at 9:45 by an assembly held in the cafeteria. Mr. Corddry and Mr. Royd Mahaffey, the county superintendent of schools, made the introductory remarks at that time. The keynote speaker was Dr. Earle T. Hawkins, president of Towson State Teachers College. Hour-long conferences were held both in the morning and and in the afternoon. Each of the students had previously chosen two from the 39 vocations and professions represented, which ranged from accounting to under¬ taking. Distinguished guests discussed their vocations with the groups and offered information to help them de¬ cide on their vocations. Following the second conference, a tea for the guests brought the day to a close. Miss Farlow and Mr. Fulton, high school supervisor, plan Career Day agenda.

Next came the Seaford game, from which the Delaware crew walked off with a 23-0 victory. Still hoping to break the scoring gate, which before was so strongly shut, the Tribe finally hit pay dirt when meeting highly-rated Forest Park of Baltimore; however, they dropped another 25-6. An outbreak of flu in Milford resulted in the cancellation of the next scheduled game. Showing their first real improvement, the Tribe next met the Laurel Bulldogs but lost 39-0. In mud-happy battle garb, the Tribe took the field as well as the game from Edgewood Hi by the surprising score of 26-0. The following week the Indians pitched their tepees at Annapolis High where their short-lived victory was all but forgotten as the Panthers from the capital took a one-sided victory 47-0. For the second time of the season the Indians had a chance to beat their Tom -Toms as the much beaten but hungry Warriors took the last and most coveted game from Cambridge on their home grounds by a 19-0 margin. A football season, like life itself, is not measured by a 2 win-6 loss record, but by the rules of hard work, good sportsmanship, and the satisfaction of doing one ' s best as a team. 103 BOOTERS WIN TWO FIRST ROW, L. to R.: Robert Dennis, Hugh Gibbons, Wayne Bradford, Don Dennis, Ronnie Combs, Wayne Taylor. SECOND ROW: Jim Wilkins, Mayhew Mills, Dunton Wyatt, Perry Smith, Steve Humphreys, Richard Malone, Alan Knowles. THIRD ROW: Ronnie Davis, L. C. Jones, John Ennis, John Beauchamp, Clifton Phillips, Ed Feeney, Mr. Roche. Coached by Mr. Roche, the soccer team chalked up a record of two wins and eight losses. Due to the flu epi¬ demic and inclement weather, three games were cancelled making the season appear less successful than it actu¬ ally proved to be. Five heartbreaking games were lost by the slim margin of one point. Next year ' s team will miss the following seniors: Ronnie Davis, Dunton Wyatt, Jim Wilkins, Ronnie Combs, Don Dennis, and Hugh Gib¬ bons.

PASS-DRIBBLE-DRIVE Wi-Hi ' s 1957 hockey team, coached by Miss Mary Morling Troy, ended its sixth season with a record of two wins, four losses, and one tie. The squaws knocked the lid off the season by de¬ feating Easton 1-0. The other victory was at the ex¬ pense of Cambridge during another home tiff. Easton struck back winning the second game 3-0. North Dorchester, Seaford, and Laurel also proved too much for the lassies. A scoreless tie was waged with North Dorchester in the final game of the season. Offensive players, Leslie White and Pat Henderson, aided by Linda Matthews, Pat Hendrickson, and Nancy Maguire, split the scoring honors with two each. Ebba Christensen, Wi-Hi ' s goalie, displayed her outstanding defensive ability and identified herself creditably. Helping Ebba with the goal tending was Pat Oakley, who did a fine job. Not to be overlooked is the play of fullbacks Linda Insley, Nancy Henderson, and Lou¬ dell Insley or halfbacks Sue Stein, Connie Cooper, Judy Cooper, and Joyce Murray. Assisting the team at all times were student managers, Jean Hall and Dottie Mace.

The Wi-Hi girls ' basketball team went undefeated for the second season, closing the record books with a 31 game winning streak, 19 of these being held over from the 1955-57 seasons. The sextet ' s wins included double victories over Mardela, Easton, N. Dorchester, Cambridge, Laurel, and Sea- ford. The offensive players swished the nets for a total of 459 points compared to the 282 points of their opponents. Practicing on foul shooting paid off for the team, as they made 45% of all free throws. Those on the scoring end were Judy Cooper, Pat Hendrickson, Nancy Maguire, Loudell Insley, Judy Niblett, Nancy Henderson, Jackie Dicker- son, Linda Matthews, and Southey White. A large part of the success was due to the stalwart defense of the guards, Captain Sue Stein, Leslie White, Connie Cooper, Jeanne Hopkins, Ebba Christensen, Nancy Emerson, Dottie Mace, Betty Lou Richardson, Gail Reese, and Phyllis Trice. Seniors leaving their teammates to carry on are Sue Stein, Leslie White, Connie Cooper, Jeanne Hopkins, and Judy Cooper. During the three years in which these girls played, only one setback was handed to the teamj that was by Laurel in 1956. This is the impressive record, 31 victories and 1 loss, of which they can boast. Supporting the team at all times were managers Jean Hall, Susan Mitchell, Janet Lombardo, Susan Boltz, and Alta Ann Focht. They were always on hand giving reassurance and help to all. Lettermen for the 1958 season were Sue Stein, Leslie White, Judy Cooper, Ebba Christensen, Nancy Emerson, Pat Hendrickson, Nancy Maguire, Loudell Insley, and manager Jean Hall. Wi-Hi will have an experienced team next year as all juniors and sophomores have seen frequent action. The departing graduates wish the future squad all the luck in the world for another undefeated season. Here ' s another two points! Make that basket!

ABSENT: Steve Cooper. INDIANS POST 9-6 RECORD Coached by Mr. Squires for the second year, the Indians completed a successful basketball season of nine wins and six losses. Worthy of note is the fact that all six defeats were within the five point range, as each game proved to be thrilling down to the last few seconds of play. The Indians, as Class A champions of the Eastern Shore, advanced to the yearly state tournament at College Park, where they lost to a very strong Montgomery Blair five. The outstanding individual effort came by way of Rocky Burnett as he broke the school ' s single game scoring record by making forty-one points against Stephen Decatur in the final game of the season. The record had been held by Bob Hardiman with thirty-nine points in one game. Carroll Wheedleton and Russell Smith, although not breaking any records, continually hit in the double figures throughout the season. Not to be over-looked is the stalwart defensive play of Neil LeCompte and David Oursler; for, as we have seen, control of the backboards has determined the outcome of many a game. Over the span of fifteen games, the Indians have outscored their op¬ ponents to the tune of 843 to 787. The seniors leaving the team are Butch Waller, Russell Smith, George Burnett, Carroll Wheedleton, Noel Farmer, Steve Cooper, and Neil LeCompte. The score goes up another notch as Smith contributes two. t It ' s in! Get that rebound!

The two losses were to Cambridge, whom they defeated in a later game, and to Stephen Decatur. Because of this outstanding record, we are sure that the varsity team they make up next season will be one of which Wi-Hi will be extremely proud. Members of the J.V. squad included Alfred Melnik, George Carey, Vaughn Pope, Bob Mark, Fred Distler, Ed Shaver, Ronnie Rayne, and John Porter. Other members who began with the team and later moved up to the varsity were Mike Stein, David Oursler, and Jerry Brittingham. Best of luck to the ' 58- ' 59 varsity squad. 110 GYMNASTICS There are many aspects to a school sports program, but one of the least recognized activities that continues throughout all of the regular seasons is our gymnastic program. Many thanks are in order for the boys who performed their many difficult stunts between halves of our basket¬ ball games. Much of the credit goes to Coach Knapp. Through his planned program, we hope to develop our sports participation to its full potential. Hard work, planned programs, and proper supervision all contribute to making a good athlete and good citizen. So, for this reason, we sincerely hope that more and better programs will result in the coming years.

GET READY, SET, GO. The track team completed a very successful season; although not winning any meets, they made an outstanding showing in each con¬ test. Competition ran strong, with many new records being set by competing teams. Three records were broken this year--one in the field, and two on the track. Bruce Downes established a new 440 mark by beating the old time of 56 seconds with the outstanding time or 55.6 seconds. Neil LeCompte broke the old pole vault record of 10 feet with an amazing 10.3 feet vault. Bill Oakley broke the out-dated 880 mark of 2:10.5 with his 2:09.5 performance. Seniors leaving were: Bill Rafter, Kenny Kent, Frank Lewis, Bruce Downes, Chuck Cochran, Ronnie Combs, Bill Nock, Hugh Gibbons, Neil LeCompte, Phil Quillin, Bill Elliott, Charles Fields, and Manager Don Bowden. They ' re Off! Stand back! VOLLEYBALL TEAM OF 1958 Over it goes! Besides a rookie coach, the 1958 volleyball team added fifteen inexperienced players to the roster this year. Miss Jeanne Harless, a newcomer to the faculty at Wi Hi, assumed the responsibility of coaching the lassies. She is to be commended on the fine job she did. Returning players included Beverly Ingersoll, Connie Kay Johnson, Susan Waller, Gwen Matlack, and Carol Ormon. The local array carried an eight-game schedule. Twin games were waged with North Dorchester, Princess Anne, and Easton; a single contest was played with Cambridge and Mardela. In addition to this, the volleyball team traveled to North Dorchester on May 14 to attend the annual tourna¬ ment. Teams from the Eastern Shore assemble there every year to improve their playing ability and promote good sportsmanship. Seniors Beverly Ingersoll, Connie Kay Johnson, Susan Waller, Carol Ormon, and Judy Cooper leave wishing the remaining team the best luck in the future year. Set it up!

The team will lose only two members this year, Mike Kitzmiller and Tom Peterson. The remaining crew should be ready for more suc¬ cessful seasons during the next two years. The team deserves congratulations on its season s efforts and best wishes for the coming season. Jack tees off. Approaching the green. The proper swing. He has it! UNDEFEATED NO. 4 Under the direction of their new and able coach, Mr. James Mills, the baseball team continued their winning ways by being Wi Hi ' s fourth undefeated team. The Indians, over a three year span, have won 34 straight games. Their four year record is 58 wins against only three losses. The scores in order were: Milford 8-2; Stephen De¬ catur 23-0, 7-2; North Dorchester 9-1, 8-1; Laurel 12-0, 1-0; Cambridge 7-4, 1-0; Easton 5-2; Mardela 10-0 8 - 0 . Throughout the entire season cooperation, teamwork, and most of all the desire to continue winning carried the very talented team a long way. Laurel and Cambridge proved to be the Indians ' toughest foes; but exceptionally good pitching and hitting proved to be the deciding factor in each game. Congratulations to Coach Mills, the players and those concerned with making the most impressive showing of any boys ' team during the 57-58 school year.

Our heartfelt thanks are extended to all those who helped in making this book possible. Commencement marks the beginning of a new and different way of life for each of us, and yet it is the end of an old and familiar routine which has prepared us for the challenge of the future. The past is gone forever, but the future is ours and what we make it. The way will not always be easy; but remembering the sound principles gained at Wi Hi, we shall find success. We leave Wi Hi with some sadness and many fond memories, wishing next year ' s staff the best of luck.
