Russell E. K E S S L E R .B., M.A., LL.B. Principal Russell E. Kessler, a graduate of Ohio Wesleyan, Ohio State, and Franklin Universities, has been the able principal of Rexley High School for over a score of years. He has seen the school develop into the smoothly functioning building of education that it is today. Mr. Kessler has incorporated many innovations in the school curricula and activities, with the goal of a perfect school day in mind. In his leisure moments, Mr. Kessler enjoys being in the out-of-doors, with hunting and fishing as his main interest. As this is the class of ’49, Mr. Kessler says, “A century ago the pioneers traveled to California where they found the people in revolu- tion, not of blood, but of gold. To go to a country where gold was as plentiful as dirt was the goal of many young people of that time. What is the future of high school youth today? In the discovery of atomic energy man has created a situation which may cause his destruc- tion or may bring about the building of a richer, better world. The greatest challenge to youth is offered in the control and direction of this energy toward the building of a new world in which there will be peace, productivity surpassing our fondest hopes, and ease of living beyond all our imagination. This generation may be the lucky one, or the last one.” Seven

Superintendent Emerson D. Jarvis is an alumnus of Franklin College and of the University of Indiana. He came to Bexley in January, 1948, and has won the respect and admiration of all who have known and worked with him since he has been a part of Bexley. He has worked untiringly for the promotion of the building program for the Bexley schools, and has succeeded in imbuing our educational system with the democratic ideal. Dr. Jarvis obtained his Ph.D. on December 17, 1948. This year marks a milestone in his career, as it is the end of twenty-five years of service in education. Dr. Jarvis says, “The forty-niners sought gold. Many found it. They pioneered with one of the plentiful resources of our country. Sometimes young people today feel that the stage of pioneering challenge is over in this country. That is not true. The most challenging type of pioneering is ahead. It lies in the areas of how to think, how to work together, how to understand each other, and how to provide solutions for existing problems in our society. How to keep our science of social affairs abreast of our pure scientific discoveries is only one example of this kind of pioneering challenge. The goals are inspiring and the rewards even greater today than they were in 1849.” R V I S B.A., M.A., Ph.D. Six
