GREETINGS FROM THE . H. HOWARD LEE As this school year draws to a close, Carnegie High completes its forty-fifth year of educational service to Carnegie and the immediate vicinity. During these years there has been an almost un- broken increase in secondary school enrollment. The past fifteen years, however, have seen a most marked increase, as much as two hundred thirty- three per cent in grades nine through twelve, in our own state. This year, secondary school en- rollment in Pennsylvania will likely show its first decrease in the seventeen years the Voyager has been published. This pu1b'ication portrays enrollment only indirectly, but it does give the most complete record available of school and student activities. .PRINCIPAL Each year finds new additions to the list of our a-lumni who are gaining distinction in the busi- ness and professional fields and each year indi- viduals or groups of students show leadership in scholastic achievement and in school activities. This term, we have received particular recogni- tion in literary, music, and athletic competition. One of our seniors, George Schindler, received second prize in the local and also in the county essay contezt sponsored by the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Veterans of Foreign Wars on the subject One Nation Indivisiblef' Our only recent partic- ipation in the county Forensic and Music League Contest shows Carnegie in second place in each of the two entries, namely, alto' solo by Jane Campbell and trio ensemble by nine junior and senior girls. The section III Western Pennsyl- vania Interscholastic League Championship in baseball was won by our team, which completed the regular season with but one defeat in eight games played. The one activity which is most vital to the financial success of the Voyager is the magazine sales campaign, the proceeds of which go toward this pulblication. I am certain the faculty and each senior class greatly appreciate the hearty support which the people of Carnegie and Ross- lyn Farms have given this enterprise. The spon- sors of the Voyager express their appreciation to the seniors for their efforts each year in contrib- uting this valuable service to its financial sup- port. The various school clubs and the Athletic Association also are enero-us in their financial g assistance.

To their Wisdom and judg- ment are intrusted the management and expend- iture of what seems to most of us, large sums of money. Yet the magnitude of the Work they must accomplish with their limit-ed resources causes them many a worry. They perform what is often a thankless taskg and do it well, for they are men of sound and varied 'business experience. In addition, they have a sympathetic Concern in the welfare and progress of the youth of Car- negie, as is shown by their vital interest not only in our scholarship, but in our athletics and other activities as well. They do all in their power to make valuaible and worthy future citizens of the boys and girls of to-day. Lxvh pl U f lui H We take th's opportunity to express to them our esteem, and our appreciation of their serv- ices to the taxpayers and to the boys and girls of our town. May the years to come prove their worth and richly reward their endeavors.
