)EDICATION

The class of 1961 wishes to dedicate their yearbook to a teacher who has done a great deal for the members of the class and for many other past classes.

He has been teaching in the valley for many years, first in Cottonwood High School, and he is also a charter member of the faculty of Mingus Union High School.

A teacher who believes in working, he keeps both himself and the students busy, but he is never too preoccupied to joke a little or help someone who has a problem.

With respect and gratitude, the class of 1961 dedicates this annual to Mr. Morris Clark.
