;'Dedication Mrs. Howard Barton; Mrs. Donald Simons; Mrs. Charles Smith; Mrs. Ignatius Matulonis — President; Mrs. Donald Devereaux; Mrs. Harold Bragg, Jr.; Mrs. Arthur Scales. In the past years the Junior Women’s Club has been busy at several projects for the benefit of our school and community. Help has been extended by them to our library, our A.V.A. program, in schol- arships and many other projects. It is with pleasure and appreciation that our class dedicates this Ban- ner to the Junior Women’s Club. and The class of nineteen-sixty-seven wishes to pay tribute to Ed O’Connor and the boys in Viet-Nam with the dedication of this Banner. It is with pride that we realize, during this time, that there are those among us who are willing, and who have the courage, to put their country before themselves. As underclassmen we have had the privilege of know- ing these young men and following their fine ex- amples. Their fearlessness has b£en monumental, and none of us will ever forget what they have done.

Zable of Contents Seniors Personnel Classes Activities Advertisements Knowledge and Wisdom Knowledge and wisdom, far from being one, Have ofttimes no connection. Knowledge dwells In heads replete with thoughts of other men; Wisdom in minds attentive to their own. Knowledge — a rude, unprofit- able mass, The mere materials with which wisdom builds, Till smoothed, and squared, and fitted to its place — Does but encumber whom it seems to enrich. Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much; Wisdom is humble that he knows no more. Cowper

Superintendent’s Message Dear Seniors: You are today preparing to enter into a world quite unlike that of any previous ge- neration: a world that holds promise for never-before-thought-of prosperity on the one hand, and fraught with monumental problems and obstacles to that prosperity on the other. As a new generation of young adults, you are our nation’s most valuable natural re- source. For only through the skills and ideas that you possess will come the solu- tions to many complex and varied world confrontations. Your heritage is sound, and your opportunity is limitless; courage, abil- ity, imagination, wisdom, sacrifice, and de- termination on your part will write the next chapter. The best to you always, Principal’s Message Education is a never ending process in- volving the whole being — mental, physi- cal, and spiritual aspects. The pursuit of this objective involves many trials and trib- ulations, the least of which are those days spent in formal educational activities. Set a goal and through diligent effort despite these trials and tribulations and failures, success can be achieved. It is a rough “roe to hoe” but it is a part of the growth process which we must all face at one time. Success is achieved when one has overcome all ob- stacles along the way to his objective.
