Hear Ye This ... One hundred years ago the resolute gold-seekers headed for California. They had heard of the great fortunes to be obtained in the West and were eager to attain them. These people had a goal in mind and had to prepare themselves both mentally and physically to achieve their er.d. We, the class of 1949, are comparable to the gold rushers. We, too, have a definite goal in mind and started eagerly toward it four years ago. Our desire is to pan gold in whatever fields of endeavor we attempt Four years ago we started the preparations for our journey toward graduation At first we were uncertain of the course and took many faltering steps Gradually we became more sure of ourselves Just as the 49ers overcame the difficulties that arose in their paths, so we overcame the difficulties we encountered in the first years of our high school life And we emerged the victors. Preparations completed, the journey began. Over new trails, along well-worn roads we traveled, drawing constantly nearer our goal. Sometimes we entered blind alleys, but with the expert guidance and counsel of our faculty we were set back on the straight and narrow Hardships mixed with opportunities to fill our years of journey to the brim. Soon our goal came into sight. The journey was over Paydirt! After weeks and months of struggle we had struck it rich. Just as the 49ers reaped their reward so we reaped ours. But where theirs was material gold ours was non-material wisdom Now we, the class of 1949, are ready for life’s highway with the hope that the gold we have thus far successfully panned will be used to good advantage. Here begins our four year journey.

In Dedication Music, the greatest good that mortals know, And all of heaven we have below Joseph Addison. With this quotation in mind, we, the members of the 1949 Cauldron staff, dedicate this volume of our yearbook to the Music Department. If music is good for the soul, our souls are good; for music can be heard issuing from the west end of our first floor hall at nearly all hours of the day. Under the capable direction of Mr. Clarence Shoemaker, Mr. William Pohlmann, and Miss Mary Goddard, the band, choruses, and orchestra have turned out many fine per- formances throughout the year. We would like to give special recognition for the concerts put on by the band, orchestra, and A Cappella choir as separate groups. Nor can we forget the tradi- tional Christmas program presented with the combined talents of the three groups. We offer this volume as a token of our appreciation for their splendid contribution to the cultural life of our school. MR. SHOEMAKER MR. POHLMANN 6 MISS GODDARD
