----------------------------Thron tct ska------------------------ Message from the Principal It has been a great year. Due in no small degree to the fine spirit of co-operation and leadership of this class of 27, every undertaking of the year at the school has been a success. The class of '27 has led and the student body has followed. 1 he most marked achievement of the year has been the acquirement by the student body of a student-body consciousness, a sense of cohesion, an esprit de corps, a feeling of pride and joy in the school. In consequence of this fine spirit, we have been able to do some things that have meant much to the school this year and which will mean more in the years to come. The Student Council has been organized and has done most helpful work in co-ordinating faculty and student thinking. The various clubs organized during the year have given a touch of spontaneity, individuality and variety to all our school life. Especially is this to be noted in the assembly. The efficiency and fine sportsmanship of the athletic teams of the school are highly commendable. The intellectual caliber of individual players and the team-work of the squad were outstanding characteristics of our championship football team. The support given athletics and all other enterprises of the school by students and community at large has been highly gratifying. It is evident that the citizens of Albany believe in their high school. They have given us an excellent building and equipment. But the community can not build the school nor the school the community. Nor can either in itself build itself. But in collaboration they can build both a great school and a great community. The High School looks forward with eagerness to the task.
