Through our four years here at Falls High Mr. DeWitt has been very highly respected for the help and guidance he has given us, both with our studies and social affairs. ln future years when our thoughts drift back to the alma mater, Mr. DeWitt will always be first among our memories. FROM OUR PRINCIPAL. . . During this school year all of us have been Writing a chapter in our book of life. Included in that chapter is to be found a re- cord of many experiences. Some have been most pleasantg some have been less pleasant. Many problems have faced us. Some we have solved easily, some with difficultyg and some remain unsolved. Through it all we have grown and matured in our Way of life. The great creator to whom we owe our very existence so designed and planned our way of life that we must meet challenges. To the extent that we meet them and solve them unselfishly, to that extent we are fulfilling our duties as human beings. This issue of the Cuyahogan should serve as sort of an index, helping us to recall the activities centering around Cuyahoga Falls High School which brought to us pleasant and worthwhile experiences as we were meet- ing the challenges of the year. fgmarfw M. 49441455-

IN MEMORIAM . . . I cannot say and I will not say That he is dead-I-Ie is just awayl With a cheery smile and a wave of hand He has wandered into an unknown land, And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, since he is there. EARL R WELKER HE IS NOT DEAD James Whitcomb Riley And you-O you, who the wildest yearn For an old time step, and the glad return, Think of him faring on, as dear In the love of There as the love of Here, Think of him still the same, I say, He is not dead-he is just away. 10
