ur I rlnclpal and Uice j rlnclpats ipt To the Castilians, aristocrat of classes: May the grace of old Spain and the blessings of the New America attend your progress into a future of happiness and fine achieve- ment! GERTRUD ADDISON Girls ' Vice Principal CASTILIANS: Many years ago, a man of cour- age and determination sailed for Spain and found a new world. The odds of history, ignorance, and fear were against him. But on ship or on shore he could stand on his own feet. At Jamestown, in 1607, G small bond of Englishmen was almost wiped out. They learned to stand hardship, disease and death. In 1620, at Plymouth, another group almost succumbed to cold, starvation, and attacks from na- tives. But they, too, survived. America, even now, offers oppor- tunities for those who can take it; those who are independent; those who can stand alone against dis- couragement and defeat. Such Americans discover their own America. They are Americans — even as you. Sincerely, WALKER BROWN Principal The Castilians of old were great adventurers and boldly pressed their quest for new fields of en- deavor far and wide. May you, as the bearers of the proud name of Costilian, pursue your quest as successfully along the course that lies ahead of you. We who remain on the near shore will watch with keen interest, and some anxiety, perhaps, as you leave us. What- ever your course may be you take with you our best wishes for your continued success in your worth- while accomplishments. H. O. EATON, JR Boys ' Vice Principal
