We, the graduatinggdhss of 1954, dedicate this yearbook, the Hilite, with great appreciation to our advisors, Marguerite Charnplin and Duane Rosendahl They have been advising us for only two short years, but in those two years they have given the proper guidance and counsel necessary for us to do our best in each undertaking. Their time and hands seemed full with all other important tasks, but still they were able to guide us properly, for which we are very thankful. They have sucessfully guided us through what might prove in the future to be the most important years of our lives. Their names will always remain in our memories. May they always be as successful with the classes of the future as they have been with us. BUHHIJ UF EDUIIHTIUH President Secretary . Joseph Appelt Albert De Voogd Treasurer .

Marlene Babka As we are assembled here tonight, we realize with almost alarming sudden- ness that what was once a magnificent dream, is now an actual happening. We have been working and planning for this moment, but it seemed as if it would never come, and now it is here. This moment is a very happy one for us, see- ing our dream come true. I think that none of us would want to change any of our activities through the past years. Our studies have taught us to meet new situations and make our own decisions. Playing and working to- gether have taught us to co-operate, and have shown us that we can learn through having fun with others. When schoo begins next fall we shall miss the familiar place where we have worked and played with our friends. ln looking back over our high school years, in which we were preparing our- selves for this moment, we realize that our teachers must be thanked for their everlastin patience and guidance. Without their heap we would not have reached the high standards that we now have gained. A ter receiving our diplomas to- night, thus completing the first step in our life, we shall take a second ste into our future. Some will go to colljege to further prepare themselves for their chosen vocations. Gthers will start their careers at once. Whatever our chosen vocations may be, our success yfkll depend greatly on our first step in 1 e. As I close, I wish to leave this thought with you: commencement signi- fies that there is an open door awaiting us. This door leads to a life that is rich and full. Those who work to emerge through this door have many opportunities at their fingertips waiting to be taken. We, the class of 1954, shall step through this door and strive to make a success of those opportunities. Caryl Lamberts Valedictorian . To you, our parents,' faculty, and friends, we, the graduating class of 1954, extend a warm welcome to the 1954 Commencement exercises. We wish to thank each of yiou for U many reasons, but most of al , we wish to thank you lust for be-ing y1ou. lf each graduate cou d search into is or her eart and discover whom to thank the most, I'm sure we would thank our par- ents, but it is vergl difficult for a young person to iipproac his parents and say, 'Thanks, hom! Thanks, Dad! Thanks, a lot for being my parents ! We all realize hat you have sac- rificed much for us, actually more than we will ever know.. Yes, we graduates can realize that if it weren't oriyou, our parlrents, we wouldn't be graduating to- ni t. g We have been thinking much about careers and goals, lately. Many of us have decided what field to go in o, others are get undecided. It seems as though near yhevery person sets high goals, which 15 natural enough. We that that whatever we plan and work for, is ours in this country. We believe. that we can be anything we want. That is true in a U sense, but all of us can't expect to attain everything we want. The sooner we . realize this fact, the better off we will be. All this education that we have now acquired will not work miracles! Some of us may think that since we have edu- cation, we are all set. Now we can just lean back, and all good things will come our wa-y. It isn't guiite that simple. This education has definite value, but 1t's potential value, 1t.1s useless,. unless we, who have earned it, will use. it. We can use it as a tool, we can use it as a method, we can use it. as a-key, but U above all, let us use it! With education we are able to keg-p up withncurrent events, and there ore we will make ourselves much more interesting to others. We can use .education to dis- cover more scientific facts and to fur- ther pro ress..l believe that to be successgil in life, we must understand and enjoy what we do, and our education will enable us to learn to understand and enjoy ournoccupations. U This evening we are graduating from high school where we acquired knowledge an education. ln college, 1t's possible to obtain an even higher education. Those of us who will go on to college will be fortunate in gaining more tools with which to make a better life. More edu.- cation means more power to advance in our occupations, but -whether we go to colle e or not, we will all .acquire more knowgedge as we live. ln view of this fact, it is very important to remember that education is valuable but powerless .. . . unless it is fully understood and used Lorraine Miller Salutatorian I 7-- rxf I X 3 Anderson , '15 44 ,'Q--.

The play centers around two girls in their early teens, fL.ynne Shipman and Esther Post, who are in love with two sailors, Uerry Wilson and Charles Meekj. The girls write their letters as if the , 1 were older when they write to the saillors. When the sailores come to visit the girls, the home of the Joyces' becomes a merry- t go-round . To complicate matters, the N ather fCurtis Parkhurstl of a cousin flsorraine Miller, of the girls is the - commander of the ship the sailors should be on. Supporting characters adding to the hilarity of it all, are Arline DeBruyn, as the maid, Maryann Wier, as a lady wrestler and Randy Reynolds, as a Western Union Messenger.

The play is a farce in three acts and takes place in the living room of the Bolt Mansion. When the masterful Miss Rebecca Bolt fL.avonne Larnoreauxl, whose hobby is psychoanalysis, inherits a spooky old mansion from an eccentric brother, she turns it into a sanitarium for patients with phobias and nervous diseases, and the nuts start rolling in. Complications multiply as Rebecca searches for her deceased brother's money, which he has left hidden about the house. It soon appears that all her patients are faking their various phobias in order to search for the money. Its final discovery forms a fitting climax for this speed- crazy farce of many laughs. Those to help add lau hter and mystery are Lingie Brewer, Marylou Van Soest, Marlene Magee, Nyle Spaulding, Gary Jansen, Neal Spaulding, Don Sare, Marylou Verner, Earle Wier, Lou- ella Maguire, Keith Snyder, and Dick Hanson.

Graduation left quite a gap in the Comstock Park nine. ln spite of this, the Panthers hope to better their rather dismal 1953 record of one win and eight losses as another rugged schedule lies ahead.

Barbara Annis took the league scoring honors with 162 points, and will be a great help to the team in her next two years of high school.
