DEDICATION One hundred years ago the Forty-niners set out 'across the wilderness of an infant continent in quest of a four-letter word-gold. From every corner of our young country, even from foreign lands, ,people rushed forth in search of El Dorado. But though the fame of these men and women rests in their desire for the precious metal, we would do well to stop and consider that their contribution to posterity did not lie in the quantity of gold they panned, but rather in the opportunities their adventure opened to the world. The paths they forged served' as markers for the generations which were to come, and through them was made possible the westward surge which allowed our country to extend its boundaries from ocean to ocean. ' We who have taken our name from'them also set forth on a quest, and though the outline of our goal was at first but dimly visualized, it has taken shape and. has grown until now it is a gleaming reality. What we sought is also embodied in a word, and that word is education. However, unlike our prede- cessors, as yet we have made no contribution, but -instead have benefited from the pioneering of others. , Perhaps-foremost among those to whom we are indebted for the excellent guidance and educational development we have received here at Burris School is Doctor Earl A. Johnson, our former principal. One of the first trail-blazers in laboratory schools, his foresight and solid, yet progressive principles have done much to make this the outstanding institution which,it is today. So to him, we, the class of l94Q, wish to dedicate this Oracle. We send with it our best wishes for his success and happiness in the field to which his career has carried him.
