Mr Howard J. Sheen ...... Principal Members of the Class of 1949: I wish to add the congratulations of the faculty to the many others that you have received upon the successful completion of your high school course. For the past twelve years each one of you has attended school day in and day out for six hours each school clay. You are to be con- gratulated upon your steadfastness of purpose in remaining in school to graduate. In these trying times of unsettled world conditions it is imperative that our country develop good citizens and excellent leaders to guide us in the solution of these World problems. A Within three years you will be full fledged citizens with the right to vote for the leaders of tomorrow and it is your duty to prepare your- selves well for this momentous occasion. Do not let Commencement be the end of your education but rather let it be the beginning. We should retain the learning process all through life-adding each day to our stockpile of knowledge so that we may become better men and women and also better citizens. May I extend my best wishes to all of you for a very successful future. HOWARD J. SHEEN 5

Mr David L. Swartz p ..... Superintendent MESSAGE TO SENIORS: As the day of graduation approaches your thoughts naturally turn to post high school education or the selection of some vocation in which you will be successful. Many of you have already selected your vocat- ion and have definite plans or aims to be accomplished as you journey through life. It is our desire that you will find the ideas and attitudes formed while in high school as well as the knowledge, helpful in your future activities and associations. We also hope that you will be able to consider wherein our edu- cational program has been inadequate in the development of your cap- abilities and personality and use your efforts to bring about improve- ment in our program for those who come after you. Our schools have great difficulty keeping in step with the rapid change in habits of liv- ing brought about by scientific developments. Scientific research will continue to release men from industrial labor and give people more leisure time which must be directed into creative activities and wholesome recreation. During the years that lie ahead we can expect a great boom in recreation industries, such as theaters, sports, games of all kinds, radio and television. There will be a great increase in travel and vacationing, in the development of hobbies, and the extension of education at all levels. You who are graduating from high school can be sure that there will always be op- portunities for a full and satisfying life for those who understand and appreciate others and who take pride and joy in their work. I congratulate you on your achievement and wish you continued success, good health and happiness. DAVID L. SWARTZ 4 i
