Binghamton Central High School - Panorama Yearbook (Binghamton, NY)

Page 7 text:

In today s Atomic Age our eyes should be focused toward peace. The laurel leaf on the cover of this “Panorama ” reminds us that without peace the world is in danger of destruction. Yet, this end is not inevitable, and it is the duty of the 1952 graduates to help make the world secure for posterity. Looking back on three wonderful years at Central, each graduate will remember different experiences. Some will remember the under¬ standing and knowledge gained from teachers and classes, or the activities and teamwork with many other students. Others will cherish the memories of their participation in athletics in which attitudes of sportsmanship were developed, and in which their bodies, and minds profited from the training. Commencement follows next, but this does not mean the end of learning. Rather, Commencement is the beginning, for it is merely a stepping stone to other phases of learning. Some will go on to higher institutions while others will cease their formal education, but will learn from actual experience. The world depends on today ' s graduates. They must use the wisdom gained from high school experiences to help iron out world problems. Each graduate must never forget his own personal responsibility for making the world a place that is better because he has lived in it. Page Three
