To the grctduates of 1943- You are about to take your place in a society that is upset by a world war. Some of you will see active serviceg others will do their part on the home front. All of you will have a place in the peace to follow. Now as never before is leadership important. It has been said that it is more necessary to have intelligent and courageous leadership under a democracy than under any other form of government. Some of you will assume leadershipg others will select and follow their leaders. All of you will have important parts and responsibilities in preserving our American democracy. Woodrow Wilson once said, We are not put into the world to sit still and know: we are put here to act. Graduates of Cleveland-May you move forward with faith in God and with confidence in the knowledge that you have the foundation for success. ARTHUR O. KELLEY. 8

l When the metropolitan newspapers of St. Louis announced my appoint- ment as Assistant Principal of Cleveland High School many thoughts rushed through my mind. What kind of a place is Cleveland? How will the faculty receive me? What will the students say when a new Assistant Principal enters the school? In what type of atmosphere is the educa- tional process conducted? These questions were promptly answered after my arrival. Cleveland High School is splendidly equipped to provide excellent educational experi- ences for boys and girls. The faculty is alert to the needs of the students and most gracious in its daily contacts with both the pupils and the administrators. Cleveland boys and girls are most cooperative and con- genial, and are proud of the friendly atmosphere that permeates the entire school. May this spirit of Cleveland friendliness radiate into your homes and your community. ALFRED FRIEDLI. 9 ni- F, ilvfx SPN r 'O Awvisj K Yi Q5
