PRINCIPAUS MESSAGE 'llo the tllziss of liP5li Today everyone is devoting considerable time to thinking and talking about world, country, and local conditions. After the conclusion of a major war, with young people making the greatest sacrifices, youth naturally envisioned a long era of enjoyment of peace. But these hopes were quickly blasted because, now, only a few years after the last catastrophe, most of the world is threatened with another major war. Russia and its satellites, exponents ot' communism, seem to be preparing definitely for a third major conflict against the United States and other democratic nations advocating freedom of thought, word, and deed in their governments, Recent investigations, publicized by p1'ess, radio, and television, have revealed despicable traitors, deceitful politicians, crooked gamblers, and notorious criminals and have awakened millions of citizens to a greater realization of many contemptiblc conditions existing right here in our own country. You, tlie graduates of this year, are apt to feel that you are going out to a wicked world, and to a degree, you are right. But you should know that, like the poor, you always have the selfish and unscrupulous with you. These investigations have merely brought some of the notorious, wicked people from their hiding into the limelight. You should know that for every one of these lowly creatures there are thousands of courageous and honest people striving to help their fellowmen and to make this country a better place in which to live. So graduates, on this commencement day blot out, at least temporarily, the black picture and look into the brightness of the tremendous amount of righteousness existing in the world. Strive to do your part by developing your potentialities of initiative and respon- sibility in combatting evil and doing good and thus assure yourselves of a full and worthwhile life. I heartily congratulate every one of you on your successful completion of youl senior high school work and sincerely hope for your success and happiness in youl future life. 7 ef
