GOALS Your goal in life should be one of the most important decisions you ever have to make. Is it monetary success you wish? Do you desire spiritual fulfillment? Is happiness your only goal? The time of decision has been edging its way by the bas- ketball games, by the Christmas holidays, by the mid-year, and now, yes now is the moment in which we, the Seniors, must make the resolution to set our goals high. We must set them high so they will not be too easily at- tained; but not so high that we will be discouraged and give them up. To live each day moment by moment, never thinking about the future in the part you may play in it, is to lead a selfish life. If you never aim at the heights of life you can never expect anything better than the depths of an existence which has no meaning. Time to make a decision should not be dictated by your age. Therefore this is not addressed to the Seniors alone. Each one of you who are going to school must be looking ahead and won- dering what you will do upon graduation. Marriage? Service? College? What are you hoping for? If you examine your objectives as a freshman, by the time you complete your four years of high school, your path will be directed and hopefully your goals set. JUST A STEP AWAY? Once again it's time for another group of young Ameri- cans to cross that threshold into the adult world. No longer are we to be seen and not heard. We will wake up one morn- ing and find ourselves self-sufficient, serving our town, state, or country, or perhaps just a little more mature. We are the youth of America. We are the people who will be tomorrow's leaders. We've come to the title of Seniors and now young adults. Here before us is a world of challenge. It's up to each individual to seek and acquire what he wants. For some people, they'll be taking a giant step forward; others will prepare for col- lege and build toward the future. There's little time to reminice; the world will catch you up and sweep you off to destinies unknown. When we find time we'll always recall our school friends, activities, and memories that can never be replaced. Through them we will surely call to mind the underclassmen we knew. We’ll wonder what became of them. Most of all we'll hope that no matter what they do or where they go they'll have that diploma that means so much. As this class crosses over that threshold and becomes a class of the past, may you stop and think that you’ll soon be taking our places. While you have time to be America's youth, consi- der the factors determining your future. DIANA MITCHELL Assistant Editor
