i HKespectful Jribte John Hitzgerald Kennedy In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility; I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it, and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.

Sdicetion | ee : Mu Kueh dui Auth hun iid RUEME UNHEE: SPATES ENOUMEg The Senior Class is pleased and honored to have Mr. Loukas as a class advisor and friend. When he arrived at Burlington High School three years ago, we, the students, were going through a period of adjustment as we were entering the new high school; our surroundings were strange and unfamiliar. The previous unity and closeness of our class seemed to be dissolved. Because of this, school spirit and cooperation were low. Mr. Loukas, recognizing our need of guidance and assistance, rallied to our cause. He began with the Student Council. It was given a greater importance in school activities. He became especially interested in our class and was made our class advisor. Without his help, understanding, patience and influence we would never have been successful in many of our endeavors. We, therefore, dedicate this yearbook to him, who has devoted much time and effort in our behalf.

A D SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS DR. HERMAN J. DUNSEITH To THE MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF 1964: Congratulations and best wishes to each of you, as you leave our portals and pursue your interests in the challenging world of today! Whether you continue your education beyond the secondary level, accept a position in business, or enter the armed services, it is my sincere wish that you will be happy and successful in your chosen career. While you were in high school, we tried to offer you wise counsel in a friendly manner. Our services will always be available to you. Do return to visit us so that we may share your suc- cesses with you. As you leave your Alma Mater, may your fondest dreams be realized! MARY L. BILLINGS Director of Guidance M | N This has been a year each of you will remem- ber the rest of your lives: the year you graduated from Burlington High School; the year that witnessed the assassination of the President of the United States, John F. Kennedy; a year occasioned with joy and sorrow. Each student who has attended, is attending, or will attend Burlington High School leaves something of himself, as he participates in the various program activities within and outside the school. Each has something to give, and the giving of oneself is important. All of us need others; all of us are indebted to others; all of us are served by others. We cannot learn without active effort, nor can we develop without partici- pating. It is well to remember that we cannot save life — we can only use it. Time cannot be stretched — we can only stretch ourselves. It is our willingness, our attitude, our gra- ciousness, our strength of character, our capacity and productivity that will mold and build for today and tomorrow the school spirit and tradi- tion that will bring justifiable pride to all in future years. As a graduate in the class of 1964 and as you reflect upon your years at Burlington High School in future years, may you recall many joyous moments and view with pride your accomplishments. HERMAN J. DUNSEITH Superintendent of Schools DIRECTOR OF GUIDENCE MRS. MARY L. BILLINGS
