In a world of conflicting ideologie-s, democracy versus communism, men must possess firm bases for making de- cisions. Your school has provided the educational opportunities required for making these most important decisions. All students have enjoyed equal educational opportunities for fulfill- ing their needs as individuals and groups in a democratic society that is America. They must realize, though, that these have been opportunities and not guarantees. What stu- dents make of these opportunities will be reflected in the strength and progress of our country. The students who understand and value the basic ideas of freedom and who are ready to participate effectively in the civic life of our nation will have demonstrated their achievement of these opportunities. The future holds further a challenge to our democratic way of life and a preservation of the dignity of the individual. By achieving permanent foundations, the graduates of the class of i960 will be able to push the buttons of the future for the salvation of mankind. f 15

Wwe ' Larry Whiskeyman, a T960 graduate, dis- cusses recommendations concerning his fu- ture plans with Mr. Schrack. Students find him always eager to assist them in choosing courses, colleges, jobs, and' solving per- sonal problems. ll iii firm: I mm Dear Students, The easiest thing to do is to put oft until tomorrow what one should do today. There are so many things to do now that are more tangible and have greater immediate inter- est. To many there appears to be ample time to look to the future and to make plans for it. It is not uncommon for a counselor to find among his counselees some who drift along from day to day without goal or course or purpose. While discussing his future with his counselor, a young man recently replied. If it is to be, it is up to me. If one wishes to achieve success, he must do it on his own merits. Each one must se-t up for himself goals toward which to strive. The time to begin is right Now, for each one is Now becoming what he will be. Have you any plans for your future? If not, start thinking - NOW! 0 17
