The people of the town elect men to represent them in an organization, namely, the Board of Education, whose chief duties are to further education. Students and townspeople alike owe a great deal to these busy men, who spare a portion of their valuable time in order to serve on the Board of Edu- cation. The school directors serve voluntarily . . . they work with determin- ation. Their work involves complicated relationships with the State Depart- ment of Public Instruction, faculty, pupils and taxpayers. They provide the students of New Holland with a modern, progressive school, with a well-rounded curriculum and intellectual faculty. Thanks to them, the graduates of New Holland High School know that they have received the best education obtainable from a school of extremely high standards. - -, - -: Page Five N.

i l fjn jiilrmnriam LT. LAMAR K. Buss It is with deep sorrow and profound sympathy that we, the Class of 1945, record the death of one of our most highly respected and best-loved high school teachers, who, after valiantly serving in the United States for 22 months in this war, paid the supreme sacrifice, when, on May 29, 1944, he was killed in action, in Italy. As an instructor in mathematics and industrial arts, and also as the coach of our school sports, Mr. Blass, won the respect and admiration of all who knew him. His generous sharing of his knowledge and experience of life with those who needed it, in addition to his keen sense of sportsmanship and fair play, made Mr. Blass a person of such character that we will long remember him and what he has done for us. In line with his interest in the successful welfare of others, he dutifully entered the service of his country to fight with millions of others in the preser- vation of its safety and freedom. While serving in this capacity he was forced to give his life for the things he loved best. To his wife and parents the Class extends its sympathy and wishes to express the belief that of those who knew him, none can deny that he was every bit the man that they might ever hope to be. - Page Four
