DR. W. C. MATHERSON Assistant Superintendent Congratulations on the creation of this annual - the “Pacesetter - which highlights every facet of your school activities. Your school, C. W. Hayes High School, bears the name of one who was indeed a “pacesetter in education. 1 challenge you to make Hayes High School a “pacesetter by aspiring to reach your full potential in all subjects as well as your extracurricular activities. After having achieved your desired educational goals, I challenge you to become “pacesetters in the true sense of the word by offering full participation to your community which is waiting for trained citizens and outstanding leadership. Sincerely yours. W. C. Matherson Assistant Superintendent It is a distinct honor and pleasure to have the opportunity to extend sincere felicitations to all the constituents of Carol W. Hayes High School upon the publication of its first yearbook. In less than a decade, those charged with the responsibility of “setting the pace have done well in the continuing effort to attain new goals. This yearbook is more than a pictorial description of the many facets of life on the campus at Hayes High School. In a larger sense, it mirrors the high ideals of work and service advocated by one whose name the school bears. Many times he has reiterated the statement one picture is worth a thousand words. And so. this is an outstanding tribute to the complete dedication of Dr. Carol W. Hayes, who, although retired from active service, continues to be a moving force as we remember his teachings and his total involvement in the education of young people of this area. It is my hope that the history recorded within these pages will serve as a meaningful incentive to a really great future of academic and extracurricular pursuits. J. S. Goodson Assistant Director of Schools J. S. GOODSON Assistant Director of Schools 9

Your achievement is a delight to me. You are to be commended for faithfulness and dedication to the task of making this publication possible. If your destiny is to be of value, as trained young people, you must keep the attitude of scholars eager to learn, to read, to write, to listen and to think. I feel that you believe in the adage. Strive, for at the gates of labor lies success. It is my hope that you will adopt the motto - Getting an education is my most important business. Kennedysaid, A Nation's wealth is measured by the quantity and quality of its educated citizens. Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that need not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. A certain man whom most scholars agree had more influence on the history of the world than any other person said, For this reason do I come into the world. What is your purpose? Remember everyone is given at least one golden opportunity, and, which if seized and made full use of will bring success. That is what Shakespeare meant when he wrote - There is a tide in the affairs of men, which, taken at the flood, leads to fortune. Finally, I wish to express appreciation toourP.T.A. and friends for the part they played in making this publication possible. II
