One of the major obiectives of the policies established at Central High School is to help its students develop ide- als, interests, habits, and skills making for self-government and good citizen- ship. The office of the assistant principal supports this maior obiective, believing that achievement of that goal is depend- ent on two other important conditions. 'l. To help establish and maintain re- spect for authority. 2. To help establish and maintain work andfor study conditions free from distractions and poor citizen- ship. With these thoughts primary, your principal, assistant principal, and teach- ers, with the cooperation of your parents, have taught you, trained you, disciplined you, and guided you. The future will make the same de- mands of you, no matter what road you take. In the years ahead, as in the years past, you will continue to be iudged by your manner, conduct, and appearance, as well as your scholastic achievement. May the ideals and standards of your school continue to be Cl part of your everyday living. To all of you, congratulations, and my best wishes for a future of health, happiness, and success.

FRANCIS S. ALLEN Head of Guidance Department The goal of the Guidance program is to assist each student in appraising his own potentialities and limitations to the end that he may guide himself with more assurance of success in the educational, occupational, and social aspects of his life. Analysis of earlier school records, cur- rent tests, school progress, extra-curricular activities, work experiences, and special individual problems all contribute to the student's self-knowledge. Individual inter- views and group work with the counselor are the media of sharing information. Thus the student is better equipped to choose his course more wisely, to prepare more adequately for his career, and to take his place as a socially adiusted member of society.
