TO THE 1969 GRADUATES AND STUDENTS OF DOUGLAS SENIOR HIGH: The goals of the staff and administration of Douglas High School have been to encourage good citizenship, to prepare each student for entry into college, business or industry, and to assist them in meet- ting the challenges they will face as adult members of society. As you and each graduate of Douglas High School since 1923 is undoubtedly aware, Mr. Paul H. Huber, retiring administrator, de- serves great credit for the growth and development of Douglas High School. He has always had the well being and success of the individ- ual student foremost in his vision, We acknowledge with gratitude his many years of service. Our future objectives are to continue expanding the curriculum with emphasis focused on vocational education and training. To each of you, good luck in your future endeavors. Ronald Jenkin Superintendent -Q. In 45 years, I have seen Douglas High School grow from an enrollment of 350 students to 1250, grow out of Kid Day and Ditch Day into the serious business for which a school is intended - educationg replace organizations patterned after sororities and fraternities with clubs that have constructive objectives, expand its curriculum and structure it with pathways that all lead to graduationg integrate without incident and with every boy and girl given the opportunity to succeed to the degree that his ability permitsg found HD Day with all its traditions that mold a student body into a singleness of purpose, form an active chapter of the National Honor Society with its members using their academic talents to assist students who are less fortunate intellectuallyg send its graduates to schools of higher learning in ever-increasing numbers, inspire its student body to personal conduct that has gained a high reputation and recognition throughout the state, observe its graduates with pride as they have succeeded in every walk of life. To those of you who will be graduates of Douglas High School, you can well be proud of your alma mater, No finer four years could be experienced anywhere. You, like I, as we take our leave, should have many happy memories. Paul H. Huber Assistant Superintendent ADMINISTRATION 29

Without doubt the outstanding characteristic of the majority of our Student Body is pride-pride concerning DHS and pride as an individual. Everyone cannot be a National Merit Finalist or be on the winning football team but everyone can do his part as an active member of our school society. If you have honestly tried to enrich your life with the knowledge and experiences offered to you at DHS, then you should have pride in yourself. This year's Student Council has been an eager orga- nization full of ideas and ready to suggest new concepts and to change what they felt are some out-moded tradi- tions. As DHS grows larger we will become too large to continue with many of our traditional customs and events. Therefore, it then becomes the duty of the Council to modify old traditions and to establish new traditions which can survive our projected growth to 1800 students. We have confidence that future repre- sentatives of the student body can and will meet prob- lems as effectively as this year's leaders have. NIr. Norman Littrell Principal 28 ADMINISTRATION It is my sincere hope that this has been a banner year in the life of each of you at Douglas High School. I also hope that your total educational needs have been fulfilled and that you are now better prepared and anxious to function as a productive citizen in the vast, complex and challenging world of the present. Although often overlooked, your high school life must be considered a most valuable part of your total personal development. Look back upon the 1968-69 school year with satisfaction in what you have learned and achieved and look forward to the future with curi- osity in the anticipation of that which still awaits you. May our motto always be: '4It,s great to be a Bull- dogln Mr. John Whatcott Assistant Principal 'NM-sa. 2 's S
