’’Now that we have graduated we can stop thinking about improving our schools. They concern those who have taken our place as high school students. This attitude is too frequently the one accepted by high school graduates. They feel that after the commencement ex- ercises there is no need for them to fight for bettering the schools,. If we, the future leaders of America, accept this outlook, where will our nation be? If every person, after he graduates, decides not to concern himself with schools or community, think what a dilemma the country will be ini Fortunately, there are those who keep this feel- ing of helping others all through life.

It’s like walking around the bend in a road And knowing that the curve will never end. Janice Regienus Assistant Editor
