FORMER PRINCIPAUS MESSAGE AMONG MY own locked memories is the one that yours will be the last class which I shall remember well, as my associa- tions with the school were concluded before I became well acquainted with the Class of '46, I shall remember your class as one that has made many contributions to the school and community welfare. You and' your faculty adviser may well be proud of the position you occupy in the life of the school, from classroom to club activities, from social affairs to athletic successes. My congratulations upon your inauguration of a yearbook, which in later years will unlock shining memories of the good days enjoyed at Garfield High School. 22 .
