Generosity Equals "The Apprentice"
by Chelit Bataclan In 1970, months before graduation, we all had our class pictures taken to be published in the school organ called “The Apprentice”. It was also that year, I was 'dying' to get out of high school, pronto!! I was looking forward to embark on a new endeavor - college. I really didn’t care much for that yearbook, so in the process had misplaced and eventually lost it. But I couldn’t care less. I just shrugged it off like I just considered it kid stuff. Many years later and it is 2011, I found myself in dire need to have a copy of this commencement issue. I had to obtain it by hook or by crook. Finally I got a copy on April 14, 2011… and how! I have been hearing about this batch mate name since the Reunion party in December 2010. A certain Nestor Rico from the US wanted to revive 'The Apprentice' for posterity. But do I know or remember him from days of long ago? Not really. We never had any close encounter back in high school...
