I have sincerely enjoyed the companionship of each one of you. I As you pursue your in- dividual careers will you give thought to the follow- ing: To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk of health, happiness. and prosperity to every person you meet. To think only of the best. to work only for the best, and to expect the best. To be just as enthusiastic about success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater achievements of the future. To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. To be too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world. not in loud words, but in great deeds. Lastly above all else remember to have Faith in Cod, Faith in your country and Faith in your- selves. ' I Bertha DeHaven I wish to express con- gratulations to the graduat- ing class of 1954 for the excellent achievements they have made in their prepa- ration for the future. The class of 1954- not only received recognition for their exceptional per- formances in general and specialized fields in Dor- mont High School, but have also contributed much to the meritorious recogni- tion of Dormont High School through-out the area and state. The many activities both curricular and extra-curricular that all members of the class par- ticipated in, such as an exemplary manner, estab- lishes a fine precedent for future classes to follow. E. J. McLaughlin When you, the students of Boom 210, leave. I shall miss each and every one of you, but in particular I shall miss- Bob Broderickis quiet- ly closing my door for me. Paul Crombie asking when Iim going to buy a jrood car. Jack Fisheris wonder- ful speaking voice for as- sembly programs. Jim Cilmore's many errands. Bob Crollmus for telling me the weather fore- casts. John Hanzas for his enthusiastic sport dis- cussions. Boy Humphrey for keeping my radios re- paired. Bill Kelly not being late anymore. ,lim LoBianco joining in jam sessions. Sam Viviano and his many poems to mc. Barbara Alcorn and her roll assistance. Eleanor Amstone as my right-hand helper. Roberta Baney and her interest in my turtles. Barbara Caldwell asking me favors. Audrey Clark's morning gossip session. Rosalie Dragasin and her sparkling enthus- iasm. Diane Eastwood and her cheerful smile. Audrey Kelm and Bob after school. Jean Lambertson asking for pencils. Marilyn Minnotte and her morning problems. Jerry Odermatt and her quietness. Lois Jean Schneidefs concern for my welfare. Delores Shearn and her understanding nature. Betty Snyder being last to get her lunch. Wherever you may be spending the next four years of your lives -- in college or at work, I hope you enjoy them as thoroughly as I have enjoyed spending these four years with all of you. K D. D. Schriebl You arc an enthusias- tic. talented group with varied interests and abili- ties. I am proud that so many of you have been outstanding in participation in school activities as well as in your academic work. May you further develop your abilities and talents. It is my sincere hope that our close associations have in some small way helped you to orient your- selves to the future which lies before you. May the friendships you have made during your years at Dormont be lasting ones. Anne C. Schuster It is a splendid oppor- tunity for a home room teacher and a group of students to spend four years together, as we do in Dor- mont High Schoolg an op- portunity mutually benefic- ial. Nineteen ofthe twenty- four graduates in my home room have been here for , 'he entire time. i How interesting to greet a new group of freshmen. and follow their progress through the important years of growing up l Those annual pictures. when studied closely, reveal great changes --- always better and more beautiful. And those records. kept by the home room teacher. tell a daily. monthly, yearly story of adolescence rapidly maturing into adult life. Best wishes to each of you as you go to a larger and more complex world. May you have success in all your sincere efforts - and may I have your continued friendship. Irene P. Wood
