Adminis tration HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL Mr. C. F. Kuykendall, High School Principal B.B.A., Sam Houston State College Mr. Kuykendall's efficient leadership, good teaching, just handling of problems, and keen sense of humor have endeared him to fellow workers and pupils. Although he has many exacting duties, he is never too busy to lend a helping hand. Needless to say, Mr. Kirk's spirit of friendliness shall never be forgotten by those privileged to be associated with him this year. PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE Anything worth having is worth working for. Keep that thought in mind always and remember that we get out of life what we put into it. We should never become satisfied with conditions as they are. Instead, we should always strive for something better. It has been a pleasure to teach in the Corrigan High School this year, and I sincerely hope that I have con- tributed something worthwhile to your lives. Best of luck to all! As ever, C. F. Kuykendall 14

A dm in is tration SUPERINTENDENT Mr. I-'. D. Manry. Superintendent BS., Sam Houston State Teachers College Graduate Student, University of Texas Superintendent F, D. Manry is completing his third term as the efficient superintendent of local schools. His admin- istration has been marked by both academic and material improvements in the local school system. He is a past presi- dent of the Polk County Teachers Association, is president of the Corrigan Lions Club, and is a director of District One of the Texas State Teachers Association. SUPERINTENDENTS MESSAGE TO THE STUDENTS: We can, with all sincerity, call the school year 1949-50 a very successful one. We do not contend that we have achieved the ultimate in wisdom and ideals but progress has been made. Neither do we become alarmed when our boys and girls do not immediately reach the goals set for them. God realized it would take time to make a man, or He would not have made us small in mind and statue, growing year by year physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually to maturity, One of the gravest and most regrettable mistakes of man today is to think that he can leave God out of this natural process of growth. My hope for you students is that you do not let this happen to you. This is a time for 'greatness' -great decisions, great hopes, great thoughts. It is a time for you young Americans to plan your future and the future of your country with great care. We must not let the ideal of freedom become so involved that it ceases to exist. The greatest danger to our representative form of government is the use of our most precious heritage, the ballot, to obtain favors not earned. May each of you always be concerned with your personal future and the future of your country. Yours truly, F. D. Manry 13
