MESSAGE TO SENIORS: Your high school days are almost over and for many of you formal education is at an end. Many seniors will continue education at the college level, a great number will enter the armed services, others will enroll in vocational and business schools, while an even greater number will find employment suitable to their interests. Whatever you intend to do in the future, you will be planning your own careers, making your own decisions, and taking your place in the outside world. It is my sincere wish that your plans and decisions will be ones to which you have given much thought and careful investigation. May you choose the plan of procedure which will enable you to become the best of citizens in a world which. I hope, can offer you the finest things in life. Russell L. Brant Principal 9

Superintendent MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF 1971: Congratulations upon your achievement. As you close the high school door after graduation, and later as you close the door at home, you will enter the doorway to a lifetime — a lifetime of reality and problems. How well you and your generation face up to and solve such problems as pollution. drug abuse, lawlessness, and immorality may determine whether or not our great national heritage of freedom and prosperity survives. Yes, you have had free education, free room and board at home, and you now have tremendous opportunities to continue your education and become economically successful. But there is a price tag of hard work and responsibility. What is being said in the news media notwithstanding — the youth of your generation are “burning the midnight oil in college, and they are beginning to help solve the pollution problem (moral pollution, air pollution, drug pollution, etc.). It is from your generation that we will get many of the answers to world problems — and a breath of fresh air. Welcome to the Successful 70’s. Ray E. Elsea Superintendent 8

In The Offices Your high school graduation is a time to pause and reflect upon your condition as an individual, as a class, and as a generation. You will note that the accomplishments of preceding generations will have made you the most healthy, most comfortable, most intelligent, and best-looking class ever. Along with these many attributes you will also inherit a world with numerous unsolved problems. Just as previous generations, you. too, will find that the great challenges in your future life will spring from these problems. It is certain that you will not solve all of our problems, but it is just as certain that the world into which your children graduate could be the best ever because of your contribution. LeRoy E.
