Smith, B.A., M.A. PRINCIPAL THIS YEAR OF I960 marks the beginning of a new decade, a period in which you, the graduates of Austin High School will be forming the patterns of the remainder of your lives. I know what ten years can mean, for exactly one decade ago, I, too, graduated from high school and faced the world. The past decade has seen many things that you will soon see: college, military service, a family and home, and the choice of a life's work. It has also heralded new advances in our civilization: the H-bomb, man's beginning of the conquest of space, the polio vacine, and the peaceful use of atomic power. Since civilization advances geometrically you will see even more rapid strides taken forward to make our world a better place in which to make your place. We know that here, during your school lives, we have not taught you all there is or all that you will need. This we can never do. If we knew all there was to know about such a simple thing as a blade of grass, the information on it, alone, would fill a whole library. What we have strived to do is to prepare you to learn even more, and if we have done this we are satisfied. Now it is up to you to add to the foundation which we have laid. As you do this and make your lives, remember to make them use- ful to your fellow man for, Freely ye received, freely give. 5 IF A C Ul IL T Y R. Smith — Geo. Pepperdine, B.S. P. Smith — Geo.

ADULT GRADUATE Mrs. Donald Schmidtiein left school to marry and raise a family. After mothering three girls and a boy, she returned to high school on a part- time basis to complete her high school education. In spite of the manifold duties of mother- hood and being a student, she completed her high school education with great distinction. It has been a real pleasure to the faculty to have a student so desirous of obtaining an education. The best wishes of the faculty and students go with Toni. 6 TONI SCHMIDTLEIN •• 7 f Zs ic l n S ' WILL I, GEORGE AGiTOR, ill my ability to chew gum to Mrs. Gan- j dolfo so ’she won’t have any more trouble with students chewing gum in her classroom JOHNNIE DORY, will my blond hair to Dawn Bruce because j gentlemen prefer blonds JIM KELLER, will to Roger my ability to sleep in class | so he won’t get too far ahead of the other students, f GEORGE AGNOR, will to John Aria my car so he can be taxi-driver next year, j JOHN DORY, will my system for avoiding over-exertion j to Bill, so he won’t have to work so hard, f JIM KELLER, will to Jerry my sideburns so he can get along with the girls as well as I did, GEORGE AGNOR, will to Alleen my good grades in book- keeping.

To become a member of the Block 'A Society, he has to be initiated by the current members. New members initiated this year are: Stanley Hooper, Bill 3urton, Bruno Potts, and Jerry Anderson --all freshmen. The Block A held a food sale and a ’’Spring Cleanup cam- paign. They also held a G. A..A.—Block A banquet on April 25 at which time the letters and awards were given The purpose of this organization is to be of service to the school. Since there were not enough girls to form a team any sport, we had no inter—scholastic competition this year The girls get points by selling candy, giving a dance, and making posters. First—year girls may earn a pin, second-year girls a pennant, and third-year, and fourth-year girls a letter. Each year the G. A. A. and Block A”join forces in ,a. banquet at which the awards are presented.
