The world is looking today with optimism toward o new horizon, beyond which lies vast opportuni- ties foi- research, exploration and achievement in the fields of industry, business, science, agiiculture and human relations. While some pioneeiing is being done beyond this hoilion, it will be you young men and women who •viii have the gieatest opportunities. The tasks will require great knowledge, potience and plain, old fashioned haid work. And the paths will be beset with great troubles. But the greatei- the difficulties, the greater will be the degree of your successes. And the degree of your successes may well be the measure of the progress of civilization. The hazards and opportunities beyond the new horizon are a challenge to your geneiation. I am certain it will be met with the spiiit that has made oui- nation great and is enabling us to meet an qually great challenge laid down by aggressor nations. ARTHUR B. LANGLIE Governor of Washington 21
