Principal Edward W. Oi-rmann Mr. Oermann, our best and most faithful friend has taught us to laugh, to endure, and to enjoy the fullest benefits of the most cherished years of our lives. Without his aid many would have fallen by the wayside, but by his efforts, his foresight, and his encouragement we have at last reached one of the more important goals of our lives. Seven

Superintendent Robert C. Landis To the Class of 1947: We congratulate you upon your achievement which places you in the ranks of those who are the graduates of the American Secondary School. The completion of the course of study prescribed by the Department of Public Instruction for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania gives you distinct recognition in the business, professional and social world. With the gradual evolution of the National and Inter-National social and economic pattern, there comes to you the greatest challenge for service yet faced by any generation. Throughout the entire world, all humanity is in need of a better understanding of love and human charity. So there comes to you the appeal to engage, side by side with the youth of all countries in a crusade to bring into being the ideal of Inter-National good will and understanding. A crusade that will triumph over hatred and selfishness, and set itself against nationalistic aspirations, which will arouse in all people the sincere spirit of Universal solidarity as a means for a durable peace. Your Alma Mater bids you farewell for a life of service. Robert C. Landis, Superintendent of Schools. Six
