DR. SIEDLE TO THE CLASS OF I96O Each of you will, I hope, always proudly say, I was a member of the first class to be graduated from Bethel Senior High School! You, as the first Senior Class, have had the privilege of occupying the finest facilities anywhere in the country, among a student body that is second to none. You have helped to establish standards, lay the foundation for tradi- tions, and develop an esprit de corps that will make you and those who follow proud of being Bethel graduates. The experiences you had, the learning you acquired, the friendships you formed will all be a part of your memories. Memories are wonderful, but you cannot live on them alone. The affairs of yesterday will be worth remembering tomorrow in proportion to the things you do, the way you conduct yourselves in your personal and work activities, and the progress you make. Your future depends upon your continued attention to the development of the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and ideals for which your classroom work provided background. You will have to apply yourselves diligently to the tasks ahead, whatever they may beg you will have to further your education- formally or informallyvto achieve worthwhile goals. Further the ideals you have helped to create, continue to improve your- selves in every way so that you may fully enjoy your memories and, at the same time, help yourselves and those about you. May your future be rich in health, happiness, and success, and may your interest in and support of Bethel's schools grow with you. TO THE CLASS OF 1960 The past year has been a historical one for the class of 1960. You have helped to initiate an educational program in our community that will have a great effect on all future classes that attend Bethel High School. You have planted the seeds that someday will become the rootsg you have developed programs that will become the customs and traditionsg you have contributed a spirit of understanding that will demand self-discipline for all that follow. It will be easy to remember the class of sixty since you bring the decade to a close, and also become the first graduates of the new high school. However, you will be more easily remembered for your outstanding achievements in scholarship, activities, athletics, and leadership. You have achieved under difficult conditions. Where others may have accepted adversity with resigna- tion, you have conquered it with determination and vigor. A new decade is on the horizon. The problems it holds for you and our nation will be more difficult than any problems that you encountered in your school life. Constant international tensions, national conflicts economic and social, and personal hardships will become a part of your daily lives. Face them squarely with the same pioneer spirit that characterized your class and success will be yours. During the next decade, you will migrate to all parts of our nation and per- haps to other parts of the world. You will also undertake various tasks as mature citizens in our democratic society. I sincerely wish that all of you find success and happiness in your chosen careers. I hope that each of you will accept your class mottog We have crossed the bay, the ocean lies before us, as a personal challenge. The ocean of life is before you. Navigate it wiselyg beware of its storms, master its wisdomsg and you'll reach a meaningful destination. , MR. OWSIANY
