Mr. Wallace Pre F. Gleason, Principal y Principal As the circle of life widens, so does the influence you have upon others. While you were in this school, you were given the opportunity to learn the important steps necessary for making wise decisions. Each year another circle was added. In this circle you included new friends. These people were attracted to you because of your pleasant personality, your understanding and willingness to help others. In this circle you included new ideas. These ideas enriched your life, for you found greater success with greater knowledge. The experiences you had as these circles grew larger helped to form a pattern for life. Your association with teachers and students guided your thinking in such a way as to help you to rich rewards. So it will be in life as you broaden your horizon. Look ahead to greater things. Reach for the stars and you will continue to improve. With all you have at your command, you should find satisfaction in life with a good family and a comfortable home. Wallace F. Gleason Mr. Gleason heartily congratulates Bob Ponzio on his election to the office of President of the New Jersey Association of High School Councils.

Although this influential force may seem to end with a student's formal schooling, its effect will reach into the many phases of his life.
