ADMINISTRATION To The Class of 1962: Congratulations on this momentous occasion— your graduation from high school. You have spent many years of your young lives working dil- igently toward this long-awaited and eagerly sought goal and in preparing yourselves in every way possible for the beginning of your new lives and careers after graduation. May you always recall with pleasure and pride your many, many days as a student at Iroquois. I do sincerely hope that each one of you does find deep and personal satisfaction and real and lasting happiness in whatever you do now that you are leaving Iroquois. It is also my warmest wish that the future will bring you whatever you need and want most and that all your individual dreams and desires will be realized. May goo'-1 ’uck, good health, and good fortune be with you at all times. Sincerely yours, Dennis Ryan Congratulations to the Class of 1962: It is my hope as you leave Iroquois Central Senior High School, with its rich educational heritage, that (first) you will carry with you certain attributes of scholarship, education and character which will prove useful during the remainder of your lives and (second) that you will enroll in life’s highest goal—“to realize the best that is in you.” The test of maturity is the ability to meet responsi- bility in all walks of life. Your school has given each of you innumerable opportunities to “grow up” and 1 am confident that most of you have made the most of them. Now, more than any time in our history, our nation needs citizens of high ability and advanced training. “The race which does not value trained intelligence is doomed.” In addition, our nation needs men and women of imagination, courage and high moral stand- ards. May you ever be willing “to take a stand” for what is right; to ask the fearless question and to dis- agree; to search for truth; to have respect for those with whom you differ. Remember—the great lesson of America is that there can be diversity within unity, one faith among many and individuality within the bounds of cooperation. Good luck to all of you! I shall recall with much pleasure and happiness the individual members and ac- complishments of the Class of 1962. Sincerely yours, Russell E. Corser Principal 5

PRINCIPAL OF THE DISTRICT Class of 1962: Congratulations to each of you, upon your graduation from Iroquois Central and for another successful “Iroquoian”. You leave our school at a most unusual time in the history of our great nation. If a solution is found in the near future, for the coexistence of nations, then the future unfolds to each of you unlimited op- portunities for the good life” ahead, it is my fervent hope and prayer that such a solution may be found. With opportunity, however, goes grave responsibility. You are now entering adulthood, and must be prepared to accept your share of the responsibility of be- coming a part of our adult society. By right of franchise you will help to elect those who will govern the society in which you live. By honest effort and application of your talents, you will decide the economic status of your existence in this society. By the example of your moral and spiritual lives, you will influence your children and friends, to be divinely good or disgracefully evil. If your decisions of the future are to keep this nation a free society, then you must show courage, determination, sharpen your ability to think straight, and fight to maintain your individuality in the face of mass response. I have confidence in your ability to do these things, if you remain ever vigilant and alert to hidden danger. Best wishes and good luck to each of you upon your journey. A. Donald Bartoo, Principal of the District 4
