PAUI. B. SI-IARAR, xlxxf. Principrz! Members of the class of 1944, your high school days have been in a period when the changes normally taking years to accom- plish have been crowded into months. The speed of wings has reduced the world to a hundredth of its former size. As a result, you are to have global understanding and vision. The changes produced during this period require that you comprehend the oneness of the world, that you earn a living in an occu- pation influenced by world economy, that your social contacts carry an appreciation and understanding of the people and cul- tures of many lands. You have experienced some restrictions in material, travel, and social activities. But, you are broadened by having heros at Bataan, Salerno, and Tarawa as well as on the athletic field, by the dramatics of living during conflict, by music expressing your consolation and rejoicing. You have felt social forces at white heat. You have lived when the controls for personal conduct were relaxed and money was spent freely. You who have met these and flown a true course may face the future with confidence. l have faith in you American youth. You will measure up to the challenge of world citizenship. Yours is a great adventure-a future worth fighting for. Paul B. Sharar FRED N. -IOHNSTGN, Prinripfz! The function of C.H.S. is to prepare young people to take their places as happy, heal- thy, useful and well-adjusted citizens in a society of tomorrow. The fundamental task is the same in war or in peace. The quality of education in CHS. has been highly commended by the North Cen- tral Association, the National Association of Secondary Principals, the National Edu- cational Association and by many founda- tions and universities. Our level of achieve- ment is far above that of the state and national averages. This high attainment is due to the valuable cooperation of the stu- dents, the faculty, and the administration. ln order for a civilization to live, it must develop and progress. To preserve it is to destroy it. Therefore, C.H.S. stresses a broad cultural curriculum and activities program through which students may find experiences to prepare them in the basic fundamentals of knowledge, skills, person- ality, mentality and understanding. Through this development our students can square their shoulders and look to a well-regulated future with a clear vision of expected happi- ness. F. N. Johnston Nine
