MR. CARL M. DIEFENBACH Superintendent of Schools CONGRATULATIONS Class of June 1955, congratulations to you on the successful completion of thirteen years of public school training. Now you disburse as a group. Your life's progress will lead you to join other groups. Men meet together in groups, form clubs, legislate in political parties, worship in congre- gations, carry out community projects. Every group, whether congregation, club, political party, city, or nation, has its selected leaders. These leaders come out of the crowd. Many Collingswood High graduates are holding competent leadership positions. They were not afraid to come out of the crowd to accept positions marked for advancement. Several members of this class have shown leadership potentialities. Leaders are relatively few, but their influence on the crowd can shape the course and direction, yes, even the destiny of the group they lead. The survival of civilization of this earth depends upon National leaderships over the masses. You can do your duty by helping to chart a proper course. Be not afraid to comer forth from the crowd. P. S. EICHELBERGER To the Class of 1955: Someone has said that the primary work of the schools must come while youth are still in school. Those of us who have the responsibility of teaching and directing the training of youth realize, to a greater extent than ever before, that in addition to teaching subjects the staff must give first attention to fostering good adjustments in all youth. The success of our undertaking will not be known when you receive your diplomas. Only the march of timeu will tell. You leave high school with a measure of knowledge and some ability to apply it. It has been said that knowl- edge is power, but you have to fit it to the drive shaft before you can make it work. We have high hopes for all of you. We trust that none of you will bring us disappointment. With all good wishes for your future, I am Sincerely, CARL M. DIEFENBACH Superintendent of Schools MR. PERCY S. EICHELBERGER Principal of Collingswood High School Nine
