The second world war which cloud- ed a large part of your high school career is over; the atomic age is born; and hope for world security tills the air. Graduation time finds you emerging into a future bright with possibilities for men and women of character, of initiative and of talent. The frontiers you face are of the mind and soul rather than of the physical. Our geographical fron- Eipht tiers are gone but the frontiers of scientific achievement and of social and moral conduct at the world level offer great opportunities for further exploration. Leadership in these areas will require trained minds and strength of character. To that end we hope that your education at Ames High School will prove valuable. As you seek new goals, we trust that our school motto, “Ames High Aims High, will continue to be a guide and inspiration. i ■■■■■■
