It's easy to believe that the rich and famous are born well...rich and famous. Not so! On the way to being famous...Gwen Stefani worked at Dairy Queen, Madonna was fired from Dunkin' Donuts, Brad Pitt handed out flyers wearing a chicken suit for El Polio Loco, Rachel McAdams was a server at McDonald's and Beyonce was swept up hair in her mother's salon. There are jobs you will have before you 'make it' too. Some you will enjoy. And some - not so much. On my way to becoming a teacher I was a waiter, a landscaper, a tree planter, and a bartender. Some of these jobs I liked and some I hated. But ALL of these jobs brought me to the profession I love and shaped who I have become. At W.R. Myers High School we are proud of being a school where every student can find an avenue for success and in being part of a community where everyone in the Rebel family strives to find the best in themselves and others. As Christian Larson said, "Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle." Remember that you are the star of your own life and that, with hard work, your dreams will become reality! Take care, Ken Pon Principal Wow! What a year! I chose "REBEL RESILIENCE" as the yearbook theme this year as I thought it was rather fitting given our current 'COVID-1 9' situation. Some of you are already VERY RESILIENT, while others may feel like you are not. One thing is for sure - you can always WORK on becoming MORE resilient. Here are 10 ways you can work on becoming more resilient: Have the courage to be imperfect Take time for yourself Sign up for that course, join that club Be active every day in as many ways as you can Spend time with people who make you feel good Laugh out loud each day Invite your neighbor (friend) over for a cup of tea (chat) Do one thing now that you've been putting off Focus more on things you can control Remember, this too shall pass (~https://wayahead.org.au/get-the-facts/building-resilience/) Thank you to all those who gave me a big smile (or at least didn't run away) when I put the camera in front of your face! I apologize to those teams I missed getting photos of (that actually had the opportunity to play). Because this year is unlike any other, I also decided to change up the color scheme from the traditional red/black/yellow! I would love some feedback on this decision (love it/dislike it etc). A huge shout-out to a stellar group of grade 9's who helped me with the yearbook in June (Madisen and Bryden O'Connor, Kiernan Gyepesi, Will Evanson, Madison Reid, Heston Bevans and Allen Clements). Thank you specifically to Bryden O'Connor for creating the color graphic used throughout the yearbook. Some of the quotes found through out the yearbook were from the survey you filled out in the spring, which in, most cases, does not have the author information and therefore simply states the grade level the quote came from. All other quotes with Author Unknown" were found online and in most cases didn't have any author information either. In any case, my hope is that they will either put a smile on your face, make you go 'hmm' or possibly even take time to pause and reflect on the message being shared. Enjoy! 5 Abela, Abby Acosta, Aielle Baker, Jaryn Bevans, Heston Boyd-Foster, Ryu Brown, Keira Brown, Mackenzie Buchta, Jayce Camiros, Christian Camiros, Christian Clarkson, Lliam Clements, Allen Collier, Olivia Coon, Kason Damberger, Hunter De Haan, William Dearing, Tristen Dueck, Vickie Duell, Kade Ellingson, Liam Estremos, Gene Eusebio, Gracia Evanson, Will Farwell, Aiden Froese, Alan Geeraert, Maggie Guimond.

But very thankfully, and in true Rebel Spirit, we made the most of the situation and were able to organize and provide our student-athletes with a few opportunities to participate in sport. The Rebels made teams and practiced as much as they possibly could in football, volleyball, cross-country, golf, basketball, and curling. Unfortunately, a few of our traditional sports were not able to get off the ground in the Spring, but hopefully that will only fuel the fire of the up and coming athletes for next season! We want to give a big thanks to all those student-athletes and coaches who committed to one or more of our teams during these tough, unprecedented circumstances, and a special shout out to all the Grade 1 2 student-athletes for all of their years of dedication to High School Sport!

Myers Concert and Stage Bands were unable to perform this year due to COVID, but we were lucky enough to still be able to play our instruments. Vince Gassi, a composer from Toronto, was commissioned by the W.R. Myers Band Parent Association to write a piece for the Concert Band. The band students met with Mr. Gassi via Zoom in October to talk to him about the piece and the writing process. He completed the piece for us in January and we began working on it. Again the band students met with Mr. Gassi on Zoom for him to listen to us play and give feedback. But unfortunately due to the COVID restrictions, we were unable to premier the piece. Hopefully, next year we will be able to play Tomorrow Shines Soon.

The Minister's Youth Council consists of 40 junior and senior high school students (in Alberta) all of which have many diverse interests, perspectives, and backgrounds. Students get the opportunity to share their perspectives on many different topics in education. Over the last couple of years students on this council have worked with the Alberta Government Education Department, MLA's, industry professionals, teachers and school boards to help better education in out province. Specifically, these students helped inform a vaping policy from Edmonton Public Schools, assisted in the creation of Bill 1 9 which aims to reduce vaping use in Alberta and helped shape the Ministerial Order on Student Learning. ^ef Keira1' created all of these masterpieces during 'Round 1' of Covid shutdown.

MYERS HIGH SCHOOL 5511-54 Street Taber, Alberta TIG 1L5 Phone: 223-2292PRESENTING ^mtl '68 W.R. MYERS HIGH SCHOOL LINDA FONG, TABER, ALBERTA EDITOR Dawn of Wisdom "Aurora Sapientiae” D is for determination to get an education... A is the ability to use what we have learned... W the wealth of knowledge we have obtained... N is for the novices that we no longer are... O is for the many opportunities we have had... F is for foundations of our future firmly laid... W is willingness to strive always for improvement... I is insperation that keeps us ever trying... S is for success that comes to those who earn it... D is the desire to develop understanding... O is ever onward? and onward we will go... M is what we all can achieve? a mature outlook on life...Dedication This term is one that Mr. Frank Semaka, our vice-principal, will always remember. He was honored this school year by a special day dedicated to him. This year also, he received the Centennial Medal in recognition of his dedication to the teaching profession. These honors, however, were long overdue. All Myer's students have long recog­nized his great contribution to education and their lives. Working through 25 graduations and hundreds of students is his greatest fame. But as well as these things, often most remembered are the small things which show the feelings and energies that his pupils can acknowledge. What other teacher could handle detention duties for as long a duration with the only complaint of the large number of students who perhaps sometimes fail to appear? Who else could liven up the lecture with an occasional story, or an explanation of poker or a sour joke? No student who has ever had the experience of being in any of his classes can ever forget his style, personality, and wit. The little recognition-little in the light of his achievements and contributions-that Mr. Semaka has received-will always be foremost in his memories. But may he always delight in the memories of his many students and have the satis­faction of knowing that, although we do not often show it, we are truly grateful to him for the tremendous influence he has had on our lives. It is with great sincerity that we say, "We're proud of you, Mr. Semaka. " Dawn ’68 Staff Acknowledgements The staff of Dawn '68 gratefully acknowledges the assistance and support of: Mr. Baldwin, our advisor, and the W. R. Myers faculty and staff; Mr. Geraghty's Period 5 English 20 class who eagerly sacrificed their English period to help out when a deadline had to be met; Mr. Brownbill, who patiently toted his camera literally up, down, and around the school for us; Mr. Lawson, Charles Enman, and the Photo Club for the many fine pictures which are an invaluable part of the year­book; the many anonymous students who, though not officially staff members, were always willing to give any assistance; and, all those who, in any way, have contributed to the Dawn '68. MAY YOU BE PROUD OF YOUR EFFORTS ! Executive: Phillip Peterson, Adv. Man. ; Terry Holman, Bus. Man. ; Susan Hattori, Asst. Ed. ; Linda Fong, Ed. ; Brenda Donick, Asst. Ed. ; Burton Conrad, Layout. Also: Linda Wall, Co-Layout; Gwenne Halma, Sec. ; Valeen Jensen, Art. Editorial 1 This year's edition of The Dawn is unlike any previous one in content and concept. The Dawn '68 has been an experiment, a challenging, exciting and satisfying experiment. In an effort to present more "action" we have tried to dispense with as many as possible of the traditional still group pictures and dull club reports often borrowed from previous years. In their place, we have experimented with new, varied group poses, unique layout techniques, more interesting copy ( reports ) and new materials. We are aware that not all of our revolutionary ideas will be approved of. However, it is our hope that those who are dissatisfied will support the next staff with their suggestions and assistance. Like any experiment, the Dawn '68 has required an extraordinary amount of time and tedious effort. A common comment among our staff, none of whom had had any previous ex­perience with the production of a yearbook, was, "I never realized there was so much work involved!" The yearbook is thus the efforts of many; my thanks are extended to all those responsible. It is when we view the actual published product, instead of a paraphernalia of assorted pictures, bits of typing, dummy pages, and layout mats, that our efforts become a worthwhile experience. Our experiment will be justified and deemed successful if the Dawn '68 gives you much to reminisce of this school year. Linda Fong ( Editor ) Taber Division School Board STANDING: M. Smith, H.

Administration - "The Top Three" These three gentlemen have been entrusted with the awesome task of guiding the education of the eight hundred not-so-studious pupils of Myers. Ful­filling their duties efficiently, they hold the respect of all. Thank you, Mr. George, Mr. Semaka, and Mr. Francis for your devoted, untiring efforts and for the interest shown in each one of us . . . you have truly added much to our memories of high school! Congratulations to Linda Fong and her committee for the long hours of work and planning that have resulted in this fine edition of '68 Dawn. A real effort has been made to make this yearbook unique. Preserved between its covers is the history of a year at Myers School. In addition to the pictures of all the students- the pictures of the activities ranging from initiation to graduation are a storehouse of memories. The publishing of this yearbook is truly a worthwhile venture. I would like to share with all the readers of this Yearbook a definition of education. Education is not a thing or a place; it is a process. Education is the process of producing a person who is publicly useful and privately happy. Education is not to be confused with attendance at school. Attendance may be necessary but it does not guarantee an education. Education is the spark of insight into a problem, it is the revealing of relationships between events, it is the appreciation of the struggle of minds that has provided us with the tremendous fund of knowledge that is now ours. Education is listening to the spoken word and reading the written word; it is taking the ideas of others, analyzing and sifting them, and coming up with a conclusion or generalization of one's own. Education is learning to accept responsibility for one's own actions whether that action be lack of preparation for an exam, or whether that action be hookey playing-both have consequences that are the responsibility of the doer. Education is probing the internal organs of a preserved frog, it is developing a skill of the basket­ball floor, it is polishing and refining an essay, it is making a painting come to life, it is struggling with a complex problem. Thus, education is a many faceted diamond, with each facet requiring the effort of the learner to polish it to brilliance. Education is obtained by those who work for it. I believe that the facilities, program and staff at Myers school are among the best to be found in Alberta. May I urge all who have the opportunity to take full advantage of the education available here. James L. George ( Principal ) into Tomorrows Mrs. M. Allen-P. E. Mr. R. Anderson-Sc. , Math Mr. A.

Santoni Industrial Material Centre Workers Library Assistants In Memoriam On June 8, 1968, the W.R. Myers School was saddened by the sudden death of Tom Nelson, a popular sport's en­thusiast. Since coming to Myers five years ago from Stirling, Tom had made many friends and had become well-known in Southern Alberta high school basketball circles as an All- Star. It is in his memory that we dedicate this page of Dawn '68 to Tom.

SCHOLARSHIP $25. 00 to the outstanding Grade 12 commercial student - Coralie Arnett Class ’68 History Bette Jo Hamman We, the graduating class of '68, were born smack in the middle of the 20th century. To be alive in such an age. With every year a lightning Page. Turned in the world's great wonder book. Whereas the learning nations look. When men speak strong for brotherhood; For peace and universal good. We are the product of the years which passed by fast and furious in a changing world following World War II, we were part of the twist, the Beatles, color television, jet propulsion, Canada's Centennial, the space era, the New Math, go-go dancers and the mini-skirt. Think of that glorious golden morning of September, 1956, Brave mothers of Dr. Hamman, Central, Barnwell, Kinniburgh, and the L. T. Westlake districts clasped the eager ones tightly by the hand as the little rascals skipped along, antici­pating the grand adventure of school. With scrubbed faces and toothless smiles, we took the first step toward the future which so hopefully belonged to us. It was a new and very different world. We entered timidly, because it was a world of faces we did not know. It was our secret fear that the teacher would expect us to read and write on the first day. We had shy fears of having to go to the bathroom and not wanting to ask. But after the first week, school was a place of laughter, scuffling feet, whispers, and old friends. Listening intently, we ventured through the magic doors of storylands. Then joy burst upon us as we began to understand, following directions, and thinking for ourselves. We rested our little heads on our desks and peeked, squirmed, and suppressed our giggles, for the minutes of rest seemed so endless. During elementary school, we blessed the relief of recess as we ran, jumped, and shouted after being subdued for over an hour. We remember the refresh­ing coolness of the drinking fountain water; the good smell of fresh air; and the freedom in games of baseball. We learned to accept criticism when we did something wrong. In 1962, we, of different schools met on a common stamping ground in Junior High. We were together--our country cousins of Kinniburgh, the sophisticated ones of Central, the intellectuals of Dr. Hamman, and the delinquents of L. T. Westlake who played a mean game of football, with the girls as the star quarterbacks. We were all enthusiastic, typical twelve year olds; bursting with energy, often noisy, very talka­tive, and almost immune to discipline. The halls were our domain. Our lockers were everybody’s lockers; our books belonged to anyone, and we were always in a mad scramble to get to class on time. I'm sure we all remember waving our green slips frantically as we brazenly entered the classroom late again. Detentions became an extracurricular activity where we met our pals at noon hour. Without a doubt, we were little monsters in Junior High. In Autumn, 1965, our happy, carefree school­days resumed. Barnwell cummuters became part of our happy crowd of teeny boppers. During our high school days, we became more serious as we realized our school demanded the price of discipline, hard work, and patience. Tonight, we fully appreciate to be alive in such an age. To Live to it! To Give to it! Valedictory Bruce Conrad "All who have meditated in the art of governing mankind have been con­vinced that the fate of empires depends on the education of youth. ” Those were the words of the ancient philosopher, Aristotle, commenting on the vital role of education in his time. In our time, the need for education is much greater. Our happiness, economic success, and well-being in the future depend on the extent of your education. Our technology today is expanding more rapidly than it has ever done before in the history of man. Many new books, especially those on scientific subjects, become out-dated within five to ten years from the time they are published. The use of automation is increasing. Computers speed up the hand­ling of business; run all sorts of establishments from airports to libraries; and are an indispensible aid to scientific research. They are also essential to national defence. The heart of the NORAD defence system is a giant computer which keeps tab on hundreds of flying objects simultaneously and warns of enemy attack. These remarkable devices are the products of the well-trained minds of the past. But many people are needed now, and many more will be needed in the future, just to keep our defense systems up to date. It is indeed true that the fate of impires depends on the education of the youth. We graduands have, for the past twelve years, been learning the facts which will enable us to take our place in the future. We have not been alone in this effort. Many teachers have laboured to give us the knowledge of past centuries. Facts which have been accumulating for hundreds of years are now our personal possessions thanks to their efforts. To our parents we also extend our personal gratitude. They have given us the rather firm encouragement that we have needed at times. Yes, our thanks go to all those who have so pains­takingly prepared us for success in the future; a future full of promise. We will be sorry to leave these familiar hallways and classrooms. They have been the scene of so many happy moments, and the backdrop for so many distressing problems. They will remain in our memories forever. Our high school preparation is now complete; we are ready to go our separate ways and face the great challenges that lie ahead. May we forge for­ward fearlessly and make our lives as successful and enjoyable as our high school days have been. The future and all it holds is waiting.

Editors DAWN OF WISDOM D is for determination to get an education... the ability to use what we have learned... W the wealth of knowledge we have obtained... N is for the novices we no longer are... 0 is for the many opportunities we have had... F is for the foundations of our future firmly laid... W is willingness to strive always for inprovement... I is inspiration that keeps us ever trying,., S is for success that comes to those who earn it... D is the desire to develop understanding... 0 is ever onward. And onward we will go... M is what we can all acheive" A Mature Outlook On Life... PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE Our Yearbook has come of age! It is gratifying to note that in the last couple of years deadlines have been met and the student committee has accepted real responsibility for the publication. And incredible as it may appear, the year­book account should show a moderate surplus this year. A cooperative effort has paid off! Thanks are due to the advisor Mr. Morrison, to the student’s councils for al­locating special funds, to the publisher’s representatives for their guidance, and especially to the yearbook committees for their committment and determination. However, the future of our current school program does not look so bright. In recent years the opertional costs haf have escalated along with rising costs everywhere. Inflation has taken its toll—decreasing purchasing power for supplies and replacement of equipment. We have six fewer teachers than we had five years ago, although our average yearly enrol­ment has not declined in that proportion. It has become in­creasingly difficult to maintain a broad program for the ben­efit of students with diverse needs and interests. Many classes are larger than they should be for effect­ive teaching and learning; some classes in special interest areas may be too small to justify in strictly economic terms, but justifiable in terms of opportunities for non academically - oriented students. Provincial funding does not appear to be geared to a suf­ficiently high priority for education. The quality and extent of programs are bound to be affected. I expect that in the next few years the question of local priorities will become much more urgent, and that decisions may be made concerning substantial reduction or elimination of certain programs. If present trends continue there is a high probability that W. R, Myers will become essentially an academic Junior/ Senior high school simply because the operational costs per student per year are thereby minimized. Although there may be little argument over the need to main maintain a basic core academic program, there is likely to be much anxiety and stress when it comes to areas such as indust­rial arts, home economics, business education, art and music. What criteria will be used to judge their comparative educa­tional values? Will comparative financial costs be the crucial factor? In the final analysis we must all face this question: How important is the school, and what do we want it to do for our students?

R. Myers High School on June 23, 1975 en route to Calgary airport. Wardair took efficient care of us and all our baggage, and once installed inside the 747, Myer's students lost no time im getting down to the business of eating, drinking, and trying to impress the stewardesses. The night was very short flying at 35000 feet and the next morning with the sun shining down on the green fields, our plane touched down at Gatwich airport, 40 miles south of London. There we were met by 2 buses and their drivers, Phil and Sinclair, who stayed with us throughout the entire 3 weeks. Suffice it to say that Phil and Sine turned out to be not only excellent drivers in England's congested traffic, but travel counsellors, baggage handlers, and our most enthusiastic applauders at every concert. It is impossible to summarize the varied activities of three weeks in a few short paragraphs. However some over-riding impressions remain: The support from the community, the unity which developed be­tween student, teacher and parent, and the work of the execu­tive committee were the three main factors in the success of the project The thrill of performing to capacity audiences nearly every­where we went; the chance to look at a foreigh educational system; the chance to view Taber and our life style from a distance and to compare it with another. These were experi­ences not commonly met with in day to day life. The trip helped to invest the music program at the school with a certain amount of prestige. It also laid an excel­lent groundwork of cooperation amoug parents of music stud­ents—a spirit that has been carried on further this year by the Myers Music Association add those whose liaison in the future may help to benefit the music program at Myers still more.

    IL BERRETTO A SONAGLI W DIALEKCIE NEAPOLITAŃSKIM W TŁUMACZENIU EDUARDA DE FILIPPA

    This article is devoted to various versions of the script of Il berretto a sonagli by Luigi Pirandello. The play was important also for another Italian playwriter, Eduardo de Filipppo, who at the request of the author, translated the play to the Neapolitan dialect and staged it in 1936 in Naples. De Filippo staged the play also the second time at the end of his life, in 1979 in Rome. The article analyses both versions of the play, i.e. the Sicilian script by Pirandello and its Neapolitan translation made by De Filippo. It is noticed that the most significant differences occurred in the semantic level.In data 14 agosto 1916, da Roma, Luigi Pirandello comunicava all’amico e sodale Nino Martoglio di aver finito «la nuova commedia per Musco, quella in due atti, ’A birritta cu ’i ciànciani (Il berretto a sonagli)» e di volergliela leggere prima di spedirla all’attore che si trovava a Catania. Ricevuto il testo manoscritto per la messa in scena, Martoglio lo faceva subito ricopiare per Angelo Musco. Ma doveva trascorrere quasi un anno prima che ’A birritta cu ’i ciancianeddi fosse messa in scena al «Teatro Nazionale» di Roma, il 27 giugno 1917, dalla compagnia Musco. È significativo che nel fitto carteggio con Martoglio solo su questo suo lavoro Pirandello, di solito così essenziale, quasi secco nella corrispondenza, indugiasse in minuziose ed accurate indicazioni, preziose note di regia, interventi a distanza sul testo, sul filo della memoria (con il copione autografo ormai nelle mani di Martoglio), precisazioni di particolari, raccomandazioni all’attore circa lo spirito animatore e suggerimenti relativi all’azione parlata e alle mosse d’anima.Niniejszy artykuł został poświęcony umówieniu różnych wersji scenariusza sztuki napisanej przez Luigiego Pirandella pt. Il berretto a sonagli, która poniekąd stanowiła kamień milowy w twórczości innego włoskiego dramaturga – Eduarda De Filippa. Ten ostatni, na prośbę autora, dokonał tłumaczenia sztuki na dialekt neapolitański i jej inscenizacji, która po raz pierwszy nastąpiła w 1936 r. w Neapolu, co spotkało się z ogromnym entuzjazmem tamtejszej prasy; po raz drugi De Filippo wystawił tę sztukę pod koniec swojego życia, w 1979 r. w Rzymie. W artykule autorka zestawia ze sobą obie wersje sztuki. Zwraca przy tym szczególną uwagę na różnice dzielące neapolitańskią wersję De Filippa od jej klasycznego sycylijskiego pierwowzoru autorstwa L. Pirandella

PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE Congratulations to the Yearbook editor and her committee for the effort made to bring another edition of the Yearbook to fruition. Too often, only the members of the committee realize the hours of work that are essential to the production of a yearbook. The remainder of the student body too often take the yearbook for granted. I would like to give some recognition to the unsung heroes on the Yearbook committee. Preserved here between the covers of this book is the history of a year at W. R. Myers School. Besides the pictures of the individual students, the yearbook tells the story of our academic, athletic and cultural accomplishments. It is a treasure well worth preserving. At this time, no one needs to be reminded that 1967 is Canada's Centennial Year. The communica­tions media blat the message at us from every angle. Our town has good reason to take pride in the establishment of the Confederation Park in whose centre stands the flag pole which the Myers students had erected. We should take pride, not only in our local accomplishments, but also those of a national nature. In one hundred years our nation has made phenomenal progress. Each one of us has an obliga­tion to learn the history and development of our heritage and we have a responsibility as citizens to make our contribution to the nations on-going progress. May I take this opportunity, on behalf of all the staff, to offer congratulations to the members of the graduating class and our best wishes for your continued success in whatever line of work you may choose.

Do you remember that first day at school? Your mother took you by the hand, led you into a room full of pictures and scrubbed faces, and - told you that you were a "big girl now” and then left you. Looking across the aisle you could see another "big girl now. " The tears were rolling down her cheeks so you didn't have to feel bad about the quiver in your bottom lip. After those first days things improved. Parties, Christmas pageants, school festivals and a generous sprinkling of knowledge throughout the elementary grades, all helped to expand our little minds. Back in those days we loved our teachers and hated the opposite sex. In grade seven, students from L. T. Westlake, Dr. Hammon, and Central School congregated at Myers to begin their Junior High years. Through some mysterious change in nature we now fell in love with the opposite sex and took our hate out on the teachers. Grade nine marked the first real testing point that began to shape our High School years and our futures as adults; that of Departmental Examina­tions. It was alarming to realize that our High School years depended so much on how well we did on those exams. Upon entering Grade ten we found that "aliens" from Barnwell had invaded; and after being fondly welcomed into Myers School at Initiation, we began our High School Years. Happiness, sadness, fright, boredom, excitement, depression - every possible feeling has been experienced by a student in High School. And now, with mixed feelings, we have reached our graduation. It is nice to recall the past, but at this time we are also looking with promise to the future. I would like to leave you with the thought from our banquet place cards: You have all been given a bag of tools, A formless rock and a book of rules. And each must make ere life has flown- A stumbling block or a stepping stone. We, the graduates of 1967, would like to thank our parents and teachers for helping to turn our school years from stumbling blocks into stepping stones. VICKI WEST•• Brenda Braun Don Crawford Rae Enna an Ken Ito Terry Holman Ross Kunimoto Susan Leroy Diane Putici Bob Omotani Nola mith Dwaine Turnbull VALEDICTORY l onight marks the accomplishment of life’s first major goal. We graduands have proven that we were capable of accepting the many responsibilities and challenges that we have been confronted with during our years of schooling. At times we encountered embarrassing moments and failures, but we succeeded in overcoming our difficulties until now we have finally accomplished our first major achieve­ment. Much credit, however, belongs to those adults who did so much to help us on our way. First of all, sincere thanks to our parents, who with their understanding, have guided us so well in the past and will continue to do so in the future. We are also grateful to our dedicated and patient teachers for their major part in our achievement. We must not forget our classmates for the fellowship and fun they brought into our lives. The real credit belongs in part to every person who has had some bearing on our lives. Everybody has influenced us in some way and it has been a combination of these influences that has helped to produce the high ideals present in our 1967 graduation class. .Although it seems that we have learned a vast amount, we have but just touched upon an endless storehouse of knowledge. We have much more to learn and try as we might, we can never stop learn­ing. Still, we can justly say that we have received a firm foundation which will support us in our future endeavors. Our learning has not been just formulas and facts but consists of more important subjects. We have learned co-operation, the social graces, gratitude, respect, patience, citizenship, and honesty. But most important we have learned to get along with our fellow students, an accomplishment that is extremely important in our modern society. To us school has been much more than just a building; it has given us much, and we will be sad to leave it. The memories we have of our adolescent years will remain with us forever. Probably our fondest memories are those of our gay, carefree experiences that we shared with our classmates while in pursuit of our studies. Never again will we experience such fellowship, for soon this period of our lives will come to a close. We must accept this fate and prepare ourselves to face the future with dignity. Just as tonight marks an important milestone in our lives, this year marks an even greater milestone in the history of our country. Canada has survived her first one hundred years to become a healthy, growing nation. Similarly, we have grown and matured to our present state where we now stand on the brink of adulthood. What the next years will bring to ourselves and to our country depends upon us and the other members of our generation. In time, the responsibility of leading our communities and our country will fall upon us. We must face our duty and do our part to help determine our destiny for the good of mankind. It has been written that life is like a game of chess where there are an almost infinite number of complex moves possible. The choice is yours to make whatever move you wish, but you must keep in mind the consequences of each move. A poor move may cost the game, while a strong move will provide a basis for further development. So it is in our lives. Thus far, we have just begun our game. We all have made some foolish mistakes, but they have not been serious. It is from this time forth that we must begin to make our more important moves. The steps we take in the next few years will determine the course of our lives. The future lies ahead. Your life is yours to do with as you please. It is my sincere hope that what­ever you do with your life will bring happiness and pride, not only to yourself, but also to your fellow man. ROD ADACHICLASS PROPHECY Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, this is Murray DePoe and Earle Cameron Wright reporting to you from the Metropolis of Taber, the site of EXPO '17 for CBC TV. Yes, it is the 2017 and the 150th anniversary of the confederation of our nation. To commemorate this gala occasion, we felt that it would be appropriate to go back in time to the year 1967, Canada's 100th anniversary, to the graduating class of the first high school in Taber. We have done this and traced the lives of all the graduates up to this day. This is what we have found: 1. GORDON SAUNDERS - a great trapeze artist gone trend setter when he reintroduced the "leotard" craze. 2, BRENDA BRAUN - sewed her way to success with the Stanfields people. 3. ROD ADACHI - used his advanced mathematics degree to successfully operate Mad Rodney's Swap Shop. 4. TERRY EVAN SON - is an unfortunate case who died of a broken heart when the circulation of paperback westerns died. 5. Two of our noted female athletes, BARBARA EVANSON and JANICE JESPERSON represented Canada at the Pan-American games. Both were unsuccessful, however. Barb lost out in the teacup juggling competitions and Janice in needle threading. Not too clumsy! 6. TERRY BROWNING - became one of the world's multimillionaires when he cashed in on his life­time's accumulation of 91, 206, 834 Pilsner empties. 7. FEROCIOUS FRED MEYER AND ROBBY "THE ROCK" CONRAD - became the terrifying ringleaders of Hell's Angels: Taber branch. 8. KEITH ANDERSON - was worried about his hair going thin... but then who wants fat hair? 9. Miss MARG URANO - left us in 1976 when beset by one of her more serious giggling attacks. 10. CHRIS LARSON - became a lady wrestler in 1977 and gained world fame by talking her opponents into submission. 11. PAT FONG - shattered Louis Cyr's all-time weight lifting record by hefting 2 1/2 tons of Heinz's 57 varieties in promotion of the Big T. 12. TERRY BOSSERT - remained a (third-rate) grease monkey for M & R all his life. 13. HAL & ARTHUR BAREHAM Esqs. - became partners in the Florentine Charm Academy which hosted too much of the European Royality. 14. LOIS RAE ENMAN - the terror of Taber's streets, dominated the NASCAR Stock Car Racing scene till she collided with Pernelli Jones and piled up the little red V. W. 15. Enman's pit crew, LAURA SANTONI and head mechanic ESTER "TIRE WRENCH" THIESSEN - said the car was in great shape and could have gone all the way if the torus check valve hadn't over fluidized the reverse inhibitor causing the clutch cam roller to burn out the muffler bearings. (What?. . . scratch) 16. DONALD CRAWFORD - became the lawyer in demand when he sent Perry Mason and the Defenders to Alcatraz for parking violations. 17. Two of our boy graduands, MIKE VICKERY & JACK MIYADA - found fortune and fame to take their places beside the ageing Gordie Howe on Eaton's Advisory Council. Jack endorses ladies' shoe laces and things while Mike's specialty is bathroom fixtures.STAN WEISS - returned to Myers to coach the Globetrotters to a fantastic record of zero wins to 69 losses. 19. RICHARD JENSEN - studied at Olds Agricultural College and returned to Taber to grow vegetables for the cafeteria in Myers. 20. MARY ANN BUCK, SUSAN LEROY & LORRAINE LEROY - continued their great welfare work started in high school with their Saturday night mission meetings as the Celebrity Strippers in MIKE SULLIVAN'S southside beanery. Taber's little old ladies voted GREG PYNE - to be Driver of the Year for his courteous and excel­lent driving habits. GERALD RETI - won world acclaim for his speech to the U. N. General Assembly on measures of control regarding the population crisis in Barnwell. 23. MELVIN PETERSON & ROSS KUNIMOTO - became leading coiffures when they brought back the brush cut. 24. CORINA VAN EGTEREN - of the former surging Doublemint twins won the 1997 Oscar as Best Actress for her sparkling role in the controversial "Certs commercial". 25. HENNY VAN EGTEREN - was not to be outdone by her sister. She won the oscar as Best Support­ing Actress in that same film. To this day, Henny maintains..............that "Certs is a breath mint". 26. NOLA SMITH - improved the PILL so that it now relieves not only fever and headache but it also clears the sinus. 27. DENNIS EASTHOPE and DONNA KADONAGA - entered the entertainment world and have been acclaimed the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rodgers of the 1990's. 28. Something that everyone could see from the start, DENNIS "THE BUTCHER" FENSKE - became the notorious gangster of the dirty nineties. Dennis and his evil accomplice CAROL AUSTIN, were finally apprehended by TOM "FEARLESS FOSDICK" FILGAS. 29. MARJ SMITH - due to her skill and courage gained from driving on Taber's freeways, became top test driver for General Motors. 30. KEN ITO - returned to Myers in 1995 to present Mr. Kowlessar with his third book report. 31. GLEN BELL - became assistant trophy polisher for the Boston Bruins. 32. MARILYN MAY - ran all the A & W's out of business when she spiked Sparky's cokes with a bit of rye. To no avail, however, when BETTY HORROCKS lost all the customers with her hamburgers... Ugh! 33. Being a Queen Scout, DALE GRANT continued in the scouting tradition until he was discharged when it was found that his daily good deed was the counterfeiting of green slips and selling them at a nominal fee. 34. RANDY SEITZ - entered the world of politics. In the year 2016 he completed the arduous task of becoming chief swamp beautification officer in Lower Slobovia. 35. CHARLAINE PERCEVALUT and MARILYN KAGA - decided to spend the rest of their lives in Myers High. After 49 years of back-breaking work, they produced the impossible: an issue of the "Myer's Messenger" that satisfied everyone. 36. JOE YEE - advanced his education to such a high degree that he could answer Mr. Pinkney with something a little more intelligent than "I don't know”. 37. HENRY YEE - used his university training to become a master cook of that international dish.... pizza. 38. TERRY HOLMAN - through her fine work, rose to the highest position in the Rockefeller Center... cleaning lady on the 81st floor. 39. CAROL SMITH and BARBARA OWEN - enjoyed the small-town life so they spent their time throw-ing sugar sacks at the sugar factory. 40. RUTH CONRAD - achieved her success in the recording industry by becoming the Mrs. Miller of the 1980's. 41. Unfortunately, DWAINE TURNBULL - faded into obscurity when he had to give up his job as head bus driver due to a pot belly. 42. ROBERT FETTIG - lost his sanity upon his return to his hometown Grassy Lake. He simply couldn't adapt to that life after his wild fling as a big city playboy in Taber. 43. ROBERT OMATANI - became what else but the CBC's new Friendly Giant. 44. The three Andersons - BRIAN, BARBARA, and HEATHER, and PHYLLIS NELSON - travelled to the posh gambling area of Las Vegas and opened up a Casino named after themselves - three of a kind and a joker. 45. BRIAN BRAUN - became the successful proprietor of Braun's Used Car Sales. No need to mention who his best customer was. 46. BONNIE COWIE - finally obtained her driver's license in 1981. Taber's citizens complained, however, because of the rise in mill rate to compensate for the loss in lamp posts, fire hydrants, boy scouts and their little old ladies. 47. DIANE PUTICI and LAURA LEWIS - our two Barnwell scatterbrains tried numerous fields of en­deavor but finally settled down in the good old beet field with 14 kids. 48. LINDA KEELING - our Expo hostess, lost her contact lenses in the Russian pavilion, pushed the wrong button and started World War III. 49. KATHLEEN WILDE, EDWIN WOOLLEY, AND VICKI WEST - formed the famous Hollywood trio that became the stars of the show the Wild and Wooly West. 50. GERRY JENSEN - that hardworking and brilliant student returned to teach at Taber and became the Frank Semaka of the 1990's. 51. MARILYN CHRISTIE - entered the Rodeo circuit as a steer wrestler but gave it up when a steer pinned her down with a full nelson. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is 74 of the 76 graduands of old Myers High of Taber. You may ask what has become of the other 2, and you may have guessed that they are DePoe and myself.

One might para­phrase this and say: You cannot hate learning once you really know it. We at Myers, have been fortunate to have Mr. Wright as the President of the School Board. Fortunate in that he has tried to make us less blind and less complacent; his story is one of dynamism, not deterioration. It has been and still remains for Mr. Wright, that the school surroundings will be one of renewal in a hospitable environment. But in so having - renewing becomes something of the self. Mr. Wright is an "involved" person; a man that has realized long ago that the challenge between potential and life must be an endless dialogue. He asks this of all the students of Taber and has worked hard to be heard on the idea. Life, is after all, an unequalled teacher if one is not afraid to look at it. Mr. Wright would say, that education has at its zenith the idea that the individual must pursue his own education. There is no question that Goethe was correct when he said that man will always make mistakes as long as he is doing something. By all means do something! Mr. Wright has striven for the idea that spirit is more important than form. He has seen and continues to see in teaching, that the classroom MUST possess curiosity, objectivity of search, open-mindedness, and the capacity to think critically. Is Mr. Wright saying or does he say, that freedom means permission to do just about anything? Hardly! He sees in freedom the carrier of possibilities. It is therefore with deep appreciation, that we dedicate this portion of the 1969 Dawn Yearbook to Mr. Len Wright who has helped to make us "know education". - R.J. SilversASSISTANT EDITOR'S MESSAGE: The Myers Yearbook portrays an image to those who examine it. The book portrays how the school is run, the type of students and teachers in its walls, the activities, attitude and atmosphere of the school. One can generally tell from the quality of the final product of the Yearbook just exactly what type of school it represents. Myers is a good school, but too often the final result is not a fair representative of the type of school it really is. But this is due to the lack of student support. Every year only a select few- and very few- compile and combine our Yearbook and then we the non-participating ones have the nerve to run down such a fine effort. This year the credit for such a good book lies on one man-Jim Ackerman. I do not wish to imply by this that all the other members of the Yearbook committee did not contribute or help out but when it came down to the real nitty-gritty it was he alone who put forth the effort and work needed into com­pleting this book, that you now hold. So, to Jim-we must take off our hats and salute you. Myers must and better take more care in selecting the Yearbook Committee; for every year the staff dwindles and the editor handles the bulk of the responsibility of compiling a book. This year we had one heck of a time finding people to take over the responsibility of running next year's yearbook. Just remember this: if you do not like our book as it is you know what YOU can do about it - - - - You the individual must get in and participate and put every effort into a good Yearbook, not only for yourself but for Myers. Shelby J. Wills Assistant Editor An editorial from the Yearbook Editor is, as tradition would have it, one that happily states what a wonderful job the committee has done and how the Yearbook is so much better than in previous years. However, since I seldom abide by any traditions, I would like to dispense with all this and state generally what my views are about this book and its purpose. As much as possible we have tried to break the more tedious traditions of the yearbook. Prose has been despensed with or added where ever and when ever possible. Candid snap shots have been almost done away with because they are too contrived for a good yearbook to contain. Shelby's enthusiasm and assistance more than any other factor made the publication of this book possible and I would like to sincerely thank her. Thanks also to Norm and his advertising committee, Lynette and the other artists and Mr. Baldwin for his advice and assistance. Thanks also to all those who in any way contributed to the publication or development of this book. Aquarius begins something new and something that greatly pleases me. Martin Kaga, the artist, has derived the title from the song of the same name by the FIFTH DEMENTION. In this new age "... peace will find our planet." Therefore we ask Aquarius - Where? When? Where on this planet does one find equality, stability of values, sincere friendship, a place where ideals are not scoffed at and where individuality is respected and sought after. If one were lucky enough to find such a place he would think he had discovered a Utopia if not Shangrala. Such a place will never be found if one is shrouded in the unenvolved attitude of the Canadian people. To the Grads: "the development of the world is within your grasp. Stare the realities of life square in the face, determined to sway the human race from the goal of self destruction they have set. Never feel alone in your attempts to change your environment. Always stick with your original ideals and never, ever give up. To all those people whose hands search the pages of this book, the same should be applied to their lives. Good luck to all and may all your endeavers be fruitful.

Whom, then, do I call educated? First, those who manage well the circumstances which they en­counter day by day, and who possess judgement which is accurate in meeting occasions as they arise, and rarely miss the expedient course of action. Next, those who are decent and honorable in their intercourse with all men, bearing easily and good-naturedly what is unpleasant or offensive in others and being themselves as agreeable and reasonable to their associates as is humanly possible to be; furthermore, those who hold their pleasures always under control, and are not unduly overcome by their misfortunes, bearing up under them bravely in a manner worthy of our common nature; finally and most important of all, those who are not spoiled by their suc­cesses, who do not desert their true selves but hold their ground steadfastly as wise sober minded men. Rejoicing no more in the good things which have come to them through chance then in those which through their own nature and intelligence are theirs since birth. Those who have character which is in accord not with one of these things but all of them, these I maintain are educated and whole men possessed by all the virtues of a man. -Socrates: 436 - 338 B. C.

The Yearbook Committee. GRAD ’69 MAY 23, CLASS NO. 98 TIME FOR A BEGINNING" CLASS HISTORY EXCERPTS from the CLASS HISTORY BY MARTIN KAGA Madam Chairman, Honored Guests, Fellow Graduands: I have been accorded the privilege this evening of pre­senting to you, a personal summary of the experiences of the '69 graduating class. Condensing the events of twelve years for a hundred students would be an impossible task however, unless there were some point to talk or focus upon. There­fore, in review of all the events: successes, failures and progression, the keynote which suit our class seems to be the amount of responsibility we have taken up between grades one and twelve towards ourselves and the parts of society which determine our character. Through each grade the added responsibilities and opportunities have thus brought us to today's climax. Our first troubled days quickly prepared us for this theme. Separated from our parents for the half day of school, to be the first of many, the responsibility of looking out for ourselves to a greater extent was a fearful and tearful one we more or less accepted. As we learned however, school was not as bad as its first impression. The work was easy and quickly to be praised. Our educators shared with our parents, the daily chores as mother or father figures and our respect for those beings was only matched by our fear of their laws. The grades soon progressed however, as did the students' view of school. The rough life consisted of chasing enemies up the backstop of Westlake, the annual track meets at Dr. Hamman, Centrals sportsmanship. Thus in six years of elementary life we gained some of the responsibilities we would remember and use in High school. The shocking new freedoms and temptations of Jr. High however, sidetracked our confidence, but definitely elementary young minds. The shock which broke this somnolent stupor, came in the form of departmental exams. Disgust, frustration, and cramming somehow enabled us to survive that storm and threw us into the din of Sr. High life. We enlisted the cosmopolitans of Barnwell, selling our class to its present capacity, finally concluding a process of unifying all the districts grade tens. The theme of everything we did in class from that point on centered about our life after leaving school. From deciding what to do after school each day to deciding what to do after school for a life time is a huge contrast from writing a simple occupations 10 essay. The three years it took us to gain that responsibility has been thus a result of slow process which we are formal completing acceptance of today. The gaining of these obligations and their fulfilment have been the paramount ideal of our society. Our ascendency from looking after ourselves in school to looking after our future satisfies this ideal in part. The gaining of responsibility like history, itself however, is a continuing and growing event in its own right. Thus, although we must close this chapter of our history, we must prepare ourselves for those YET TO PASS. sorrow as we leave this place. CLASS VALEDICTORIAN EXCERPTS FROM ANGELA HOWS' SPEECH Madam Chairman, Honored Guests, Parents and Fellow Graduands and Ladies and Gentlemen. To this place, W.R. Myers, to the guidance of our parents and teachers, to the fellowship of our schoolmates, we owe everything. Here we lived for 6 years, having passed from child­hood to maturity, as mature as teenagers can be. But now the end has come; we must bid farewell to all of you and to the good and bad times we have experienced. Our old meeting places and favorite haunts will be frequented by new faces and entities. It is with mixed feelings that we move onto a new way of life and all of us will be experiencing feelings of both joy and It will be a sad occasion because we will be loosing many of the friends we have made and the attachments we have established over the years. Some of us will miss the social and other activities as­sociated with school. The occasion will be a glad one too, because an end has come to the routine, classroom discipline and regimentation, exams, and all the other things that are associated with Jr. and Sr. High School. Another reason for happiness is the sense of achievement synonymous with this occasion, a sense that carries with it a feeling of satisfaction. But this satisfaction was only possible through the sympathetic understanding and guidance of our parents and teachers. To our parents we owe our very being as well as the opportunity of gaining an education. They have provided for our every need and have steered us safely through many a crisis. We are also beholdent to our professors for the knowledge and understanding they have imparted to us. Credit goes to our friends for assisting in the building of character and personality. We have achieved an awareness of social grace and poise and have learned to respect the INALIENABLE RIGHTS OF EACH INDIVIDUAL. As we leave the safe confines of home and school and go out into the world we must always keep in mind that there can be NO HAPPINESS in a LIFE WITHOUT WORK. To win success we must well use and need ambition and a strong determination to work hard. The world needs people of worth, people of determination, people with a purpose, people of action. Our duty is to accept our stations in life with strong faith, zeal, self-confindence and the willingness to toil hard. Though the future is unforeseeable and uncertain, we can take steps to reasonably insure a hopeful fate for ourselves by setting high goals and striving unceasingly to attain them. Without a capacity for work and a love for performing the duties of our chosen vocation, success, independence, and security will surely elude us. It is a proven fact that out of 100 men at the age of 65 a full 50^0 would be broke and dependent upon charity to their relatives or public institutions. One third would be dead, many due to improper living. 5 of the 100 would be in poor financial circumstances, while only 4 would be considered comfortable and 1 lone man would be rich and you can be sure he had the unusual capacity and willingness to work. Perhaps the bad thing about making good is that you have to keep on making good every day thereafter, but by sticking to one thing and laboring at it constantly, we are bound to perfect ourselves in a job we seek to do. Now we leave, not knowing when or whether ever we may return, to face the future with hopes and aspirations, with fears and apprehension. Shouldering a task greater than ever we've had to shoulder before, but with inspiration given to us - WE CANNOT FAIL. Good-bye, good luck, and God bless you all. GRADS ’69 VICE-PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE TO THE GRADUANDS The school year 1968-'69 could well be called the year of student unrest, resistance and even violence. A tide or rebellion has broken out in educational institutions all over the world. The news­paper and television coverage of student rioting has contributed heavily to perpetuating and aggravating the number and instensity of such episodes. Paralleling the incidence of physical upheaval there has been a moral and emotional conflagration. Use of psychedelic drugs generation gap conflicts, "hippie" be­havior and thinking and a general renouncing of the honored virtues of honesty, responsibility, industry, good will towards fellow men, all have caused schools to become suspect. Added to this, the tremendous drain of costs of education on the national economy and it is small wonder that the serious minded part of society has become alarmed and outraged. Although this picture of educational institutions is not satisfactory, it is also not completely true. The foregoing description is applicable to only a segment of individuals in relatively a small number of schools. Most students and most schools are bending their energies to the task of developing intellectual competence. Schools are still producing knowledgeable, capable, creative thinking young people who will handle the problems and ills of their generation just as adequately, if not better than their fore­fathers. Here in W. R. Myers probable exists a small reproduction of the national educational scene. We have our rowdiness at dances occasionally, differences of opinions between teachers and pupils; among pupils; among teachers and even among administrators but wisdom and good judgement inevitably follow discussion. Dialogue prevails over violence and swinging fists. Of course this relatively quiet purposeful achievement doesn't make very interesting reading in the newspapers or viewing on television. In summation, an appraisal of our situation would indicate that although we have a considerable amount of room for moral, intellectual and cultural improvement, we are not in immediate danger of break down in these areas! But only with conscious, planned effort will we surpress undesirable manifestations in our midst and strive towards worth-while goals. F.

Since receiving provincial status in 1905, she has risen from a sparsley populated, undeveloped territory, to the most prosperous province in our country. At the turn of the century, when our province had its humble beginning, she was considered a minor province. In fifty years she has risen to prominence and become the land of opportunity. On this her fiftieth anniversary we take a certain pride in saying "Alberta is our home." May this province, which is our home, rise to greater prosperity in the years to come. ROBERT TESHIMA Page Six TABER HIGH SCHOOL ©ur ©nurruDr-fetirral iefeft* sct&ea Vincent Massey was born in Toronto, Ontario, on February 20, 1887. He was educated at the University of Toronto and Oxford University in Eng­land, and returned to Canada to take an active part in Canadian life. From 1926 to 1930, Mr. Massey served as Canadian Minister to Washington, setting a pattern of harmonious feeling between the United States and Canada. In 1935, Mr. Massey was appointed to High Commissioner for Canada in London where he strengthened diplomatic relations. Then on January 25, 1953, the King, on the advice of the Canadian Government, ap­pointed Mr. Massey as Governor-General of Canada. He was the first Canadian-born citizen to be appointed Governor-General. The family name of Massey has for one hundred years been associated with the encouragement of Canadian Culture, and Vincent Massey has ably upheld the family tradition. He was the first president of the Chamber Music Society, and later he worked in the formation of the Toronto Symphony. Vincent Massey made great contributions to Canadian Art in his presidency of the National Gallery of Canada. He is the only man to head both the National Gallery of Canada and the National Gallery of London. Probably the most outstanding of his contributions to Canadian life, however, is his chairmanship of the Royal Commission on National Develop­ment in the Arts, Letters, and Sciences. After two years of intensive investi­gation, the Commission's report was tabled in the House of Commons on June 1, 1951. It covered every phase of cultural life and will undoubtedly have a great influence, and one day bring into being a truly great Canadian Culture. HOYT PRICE "DAWN" Page Seven ^J\&id.£.n£s ^A^ssmqE I would like to congratulate Beverly Young and her staff in editing 1954-55 edition of the Taber High School "Dawn." It is through the efforts of a few that the entire student body is able to have pleasure in reading the yearbook. As the Dawn comes off the press, we see pictures of our daily associates that which, in future will bring back happy memories of our school days. The value of a yearbrook such as this increases, rather than de­creases, with age. Once again I would like to commend the yearbook staff on a good job well done, and hope that the students of this school will follow our practise of recording the year's activities in the years to follow. In closing, I would like to say that it has been a pleasure working with the teachers and students, and I wish the students graduating all the success in the world.

This is the first year for the Junior Red Cross Organization, but we have been successful in a number of projects. We sponsored the Hallowe'en Ticket Drive of the Taber Schools, in which about two hundred dollars was cleared. We sponsored the Poppy Sales, in which approximately thirty dollars was collected. The Junior Red Cross members have given valuable assistance to the school library. We carried on advertising and sale of tickets for H.M.S. Pinafore, and directed a successful Assembly at which Dr. Uprichard, accompanied by Miss Nora Nixon, were the main speakers. I hope that next year the Junior Red Cross in our school is a com­plete success in every respect. JIM STAPLES Page Twelve TABER HIGH SCHOOL Best Wishes . . . To The Graduates TABER JUNIOR SHOP S.

The prevalent idea is to escape from the realities of a chaotic world or to remove the conditions that cause discomfort of any kind. Escape too often leads to tragedy. Remov­ing the factors of discomfort may be beyond your control. You must realize that the world isn't going to move over for you; but it will give you a chance to find a nitch into which you can wiggle — and then you can begin to climb." There isn't any finality in life—when we spell it with a capital L. You can follow through as time will allow, but realize that no matter where you stand on a plateau there is a peak beyond. Keep the inquiring mind with which you are blessed; don't let anything in life scare you. Say what you think. Love what you love. Despise what seems wrong to you and you will one day at­tain the heights of freedom of mind, and body. From the speech to the graduands, by Rev. Geo. D. Young, B.A., B.D. Rex Anderson - B. Y. U.

ROBERT FLETCHER Robert is taking Math. 30, , A course that's hard as nails, He must be preparing for A four-year course at Yale.

Going where? No one knows. But he sometimes goes to dances and shows. MARGARET DEGNER (Digger) Margaret's the jolly laughing lass, And one of the tallest in the class, Once with the girls, Marg is never quiet, She seldom skips school. A few more should try it. ETHEL ENDO Ethel's best in Fab and Dress, Jane cuts a better rug; So all that Ethel's left to do Is beat that Jane in "Bug"! RONALD KTRKVOLD (Ron) Ron is a hot rod kid And racing he would go; He would leave us right away, But he hasn't any dough, JANE MARUYAMA In her studies Jane does excell, I think everyone thinks she'll swell, As Secretary of the Union, she won By getting the votes of most everyone. BETTY MIYADA As a pint-sized stenographer, We're sure she'll succeed, As Yearbook's treasurer, Betty's just what they need. "DAWN" Page Seventeen AMY OKAMOTO Amy's the secretary for the Yearbook, I guess she hopes to be a steno some day; For the Commercial course this year she took, So we wish her luck along the way.

ZITA PRUS Here is a Grade XII student Who takes Commercial classes, She always does her work so well It's no surprise she passes. ETHEL VAYRO Ethel is tiny with innocent eyes, Lots of fun and full of surprise, And tho' her homework may not be done, She doesn't care; it was worth the fun. GENEVIEVE WILK (Jean) The head of biographers is our Jean, In a green car she is often seen. Is it a Jones from Grassy way? That's what all her friends say. NORMAN VICKERY Handsome is the "Man of the Hour," When on the basketball floor he's got all the power; With the gals he's kind of shy, LYNN LAYTON (Link) Smiling and jovial, handsome and tall, Lynn is certainly well liked by all. In sports he's supreme, in dancing — a dream, His girl will have to be like peaches and cream. But among the boys he's a 'real gone' guy. DOUGLAS NEILSON The Barnwell van brings Doug to school, You hardly ever see him fool, The midnight oil burns at his place, You never ever see him trace.
