MR. JOSEPH N. MADDOCKS, Principal MR. EDGAR J. BROOKS, Assistant Principal PRINCIPAL Since the fiftieth anniversary of this building comes on a day when some believe they should get more and more for less and less work, it is particularly impera- tive that our young people learn the dignity and honor of honest work. For this reason we still insist that our students be diligent and dependable in their studies. We be- lieve that it is important for young people to have a wholesome attitude toward hard work. We hope the members of this class have acquired an abiding faith in our American ideals, an appreciation of honest success, ambition, courage in the face cf difficulties, and resourcefulness towards the ever- changing problems of the world of to- morrow. May the lessons learned in the Altoona High School equip you for a future of genu- ine progress and achievement. Congratu- lations. ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL Fifty years ago the Altoona youth were admitted to this building for the first time. Thereafter a graduating class left on the final day of each school year to achieve positions in education, business, the pro- fessions, and vocational fields. Each class has found, as the class of '56 too will find, that the day seems to carry with it a likeness to what has appeared on this same June day for many years, name- ly, that each such day is a good day to start anew. They have found, as you too will find, that every yesterday seems but a dream and each tomorrow is only a vision. However, a today, well lived, makes every yesterday ci dream of happiness and every tomorrow can be a vision of hope. Look well to this day.
