Our thanks to Dr. Studwell Each year as another senior class approaches graduation, its members usually feel inclined to take stock of themselves, to evaluate what they have learned in and from high school, and to reflect upon the things and the people who have influenced them most. With this analysis comes the fonnal recognition of those persons who have affected, in a readily seen way, the destinies of the people in that class. The Class of 1963 would like to pay this special recognition to such a person, Dr. Harold F. Studwell. We shall remember Dr. Studwell as the familiar guiding hand behind the scenes of East Rockaway’s schools. We shall remember his extemporaneous discussions in assembly about life and about facing it squarely. We shall remember that his task has been one whose responsibilities have never lightened or decreased and that the qualities of leadership he has demonstrated are those of a successful educator. Dr. Studwell’s accomplishments have been many, and we expect that his rewards have been many also. For his example and for his belief that each one of us has value as an individual, we sincerely thank him and wish him well in his retirement. 8

Our times are not much unlike the times that tried the souls of early American patriots. Now, as then, we need the finest brains, the clearest thinking and the deepest spiritual conviction to cope with the challenges our country faces. You are going out into the world to do your part in helping to fulfill your nation’s destiny. You must face conditions as they are; apply what you have learned to the solution of the problems that lie ahead of you. You must have abounding faith in your own ability and in the intelligent and creative thinking of those whom you recognize as leaders. Not all of us are near-geniuses at age eighteen, but your class, by its record over the years, has demonstrated, individually and collectively, that American youth, like our youthful founding fathers, can meet the awesome challenges of our own day. Those you leave behind in East Rockaway High School have confidence that you have been well trained and that you too will make opportunity for yourselves. fearing men of unusual intellectual ability. In fact, very few countries have been so ating. George Washington, at age eighteen, was an outstanding member of his With best wishes, William A. Berg Principal
