Editor ' s note: Mr. Kerr is retiring after the 1 963-64 school year. His successor will be Mr. Norris. We wished to express our thanks to Mr. Kerr for letting us publish his parting thoughts. The two greatest incentives are work and responsibility. They are the greatest char- acter builders ever known. Struggling for an education will help you develop patience, persistence and ca- pacity for work which will help to make your success possible. You young people in America today need challenges in order to grow. If you are going to keep America great you must be able to face up to hardship and problems of the greatest magnitude. When problems and pressure disappear — or the people of a nation are unwilling to face them — our civilization will start to wither and die. To be great, near great, or just plain competent, people need challenges and problems to grow on. You cannot build character or develop your abilities without them. What you need today are some disad- vantages instead of advantages. If our na- tion is to remain great, you must accept chal- lenges and carry them through to a suc- cessful solution. You must face up to ad- versity and overcome it. You cannot develop character muscles without problems to grow on. Arley G. Kerr MR. WISE School Board Defines Student Policies The Hobart School Board consisted of from left to right Mr. Elliot, Mr. Harrigon, Mr. Hamilton, Mr. Dudley, and Mr. Briggs.

High School Staffs Strive To Improve Dear Class of 1 964, Moments to remember — your this year ' s yearbook is a record of many moments you wish to remember from your high school life. Let ' s stop just a minute to consider what makes these mo- ments so memorable for you — why you have happy times to re- member. Haven ' t you made these moments to remember? Isn ' t it because you studied hard and made good grades that you were able to attend and have fun at the N.H.S. pizza supper? Or that you practiced diligently for track and debate, made the team, so making moments there to remember? And those happy times with good friends — didn ' t they come about because of your ef- forts to be a good friend? Therefore, I wish that in the future you will continue to work hard, to contribute service, and to give love and understanding to others so that you will grow ' ' only happy moments to remember. Dorothy Thompson Graduates of 1 964: Congratulations and the best of wishes to each of you; During your three years in the Senior High School, you have, as a class, made many fine contributions to your school. You have been a friendly class, a willing class, and a well-mannered class. Individually, several of you have brought distinction to yourselves and to your school and community. Invariably a senior graduating class is remembered by others be- cause of a certain trait. As your Principal, I shall remember you as a class which was ever loyal. Your fine spirit and your many efforts to make your school a better one mark you indelibly as a class which will always be remembered with satisfaction. We who remain hope that we have helped you along the way and that each of you will be better for having studied and played at H.H.S. these past Years. In conclusion, I hope that you will remember your school with pride, and that you find truth and appreciation for your school in the lines from a school song which I remember: May we cherish thy traditions, Hold thy banner high; Ever guard thy name and glory, Live to do or die. Good luck, each and all. Harold Moody
