I' 12 GOSSIP Class VALEDICTORY ,POST Vl7AR SCHOOLS AND A a EDUCATION Schools of the future will be quite different from those of today .One of the things our boys have been fighting for, is the right, to educate the child- ren of the world properly, and we owe it to them, to do so. There are a number of ideas that will be used in future schools: Kal new and improved public address system, tbl a more complete field of sciences and mathematicsg fel more and better equipped manual train- ing schools, and Cdl the use of radios in the schools. The public address system is prac- tical, especially in the larger schools. The control system could be located in one central spot and have numer- ous outlets in the various halls and classrooms. One would speak into a transmitter or microphone to be heard through the school. The sys- tem is helpful for teaching and is edu- cational and recreational as well. It can be used as a future method of teaching also. In that same field is the use of television with its unlimited possibilities. We have observed throughout the nation, on the whole, that there isn't enough emphasis put upon sciences and mathematics. There should be a more extensive teaching of them, as this world that we live in becomes more and more scientifically inclined. How can we expect a lasting peace if we do not acquaint ourselves with the very things that make the peace? Our future citizens should be familiar with Parts science and mathematics so that they will be competent to participate in the affairs of the world. Then too, the government needs trained chemists and workers to manufacture and test our various inventions. We need more and better manual training schools, so that our young people will be enabled to choose the occupation that they are best fitted for. Such training as these schools offer would be a helpful as well as an educational and recreational pro- ject. These teach us skill, co-ordina- tion and dexterity. There are many of these courses in the larger schools, but I think EVERY school should have manual training. This is important in making our active citizens of the fu- ture well-informed and better fitted to keep the wheels of industry mov- ing. If every school of the future should be equipped with a short wave radio, or if not a short wave radio, at least a powerful transmitting and receiving set, then, this could be used not only as a public address system, but also to make contacts and to compete with other schools. It would teach children to overcome timidity and self-con- sciousness by having regular broad- casts in which all students could take part in groups. These are just a few of the things that I believe schools of the future will use to make the young people all over the world better acquainted with science, with world affairs, and with themselves. This is our big hope for post-war education. June Kilby '46

'S THE GOSSIP 7 ' 13 VALEDICTORY PROBLEMS OF PEACE Now that the war is Won and our boys are coming home, we are faced with the problems of peace. If much thought isn't given to these problems, we will be facing World War III. Since the end of the war, there has been much discussion about the fu- ture of the United States. Some of our most intelligent men are unable to find solutions to these peace problems, and it is our duty as citizens to do what we can. There are three major countries: the British Empire, Russia, and the U. S. Great Britain will probably go along with the U. S. The U. S. is the best sit- uated nation. We have many advan- tages, such as good seaports and nat- ural resources. The U. S. is one of the wealthiest nations in the World. Dur- ing the war years the U. S. had the greatest military power in the World, but during the past few months men have been discharged as quickly as possible. However, the U. S. will probably continue to be one of the largest military powers. Russia is one of the greatest prob- lems. Russia still has the greatest un- developed natural resources and the most powerful army, although its people are backward in development. She has made many demands, and is pressing her control in the Darda- nelles and bases in the Aegean. Russia refuses to withdraw from Iran and has announced her intentions of continuing with the development of the atomic bomb. She contributes little to the U. N. O. Although Russia says she doesn't want war in the near future, it maybe that she wants to develop her A power to equal that of the U. S. and Great Britain. France and China are important, although they aren't as strong has the three major countries. Both coiintries support the U. N.'O. and 'China'is'do- ing her part in the control of Japan. There are more than fifty smaller countries Whose importance varies lac, cording to the size and strength. fi To sum up what I have said, the four most important factors for keep- ing peace and preventing World War III are work with Great Britain, keep our military forces strong, tell the Russians where they stand, and sup- port the smaller countries. Parents, teachers, and friends: The class of '46 bids you farewell. We ap- preciate and thank you for what you have done for us during our four years of high school. We are going out into a world that is faced with the problems of peace, reconversion, rehabilitation, and ma- ny others. It is our sincerest hope to do our best in meeting these problems and working for a better tomorrow. Classmates: We shall no longer meet at D. H. S. as a class. As we part, I wish you the best of luck in every- thing in a future that we can all help to make a brighter and happier world. Eleanor Leighton '46 wk Pk 214 IF SALUTATORY Reconversion and the Graduate Parents, friends, teachers, and schoolmates, the class of 1946 wel- comes you to its graduation exercises. We have no one to thank but you that this day has come. We know that our past twelve years were hard years for us, but we also know that it was well worth our while.
