Fl--YU--7631 CENIAD 1936 Donald M. O'Hara, A. M. Superintendent SUPERINTENDENTS' MESSAGE: The pain attendant upon saying farewell to you as a class in East Lansing High is offset by the pride I feel in your achievement and the faith I have in your future success. To a remarkable degree, you have attained those goals for which a high school should stand: scholarship, self-reliance, social adjustment and civic responsibility. We are proud of your scholastic record, but we get greater satisfaction out of the fact that you have developed initiative and have become less and less dependent upon your teachers for carrying on your education. You have learned to work and play together and have shown your consciousness of the cooperative and inter- dependent nature of society. You have accept- ed the responsibilities of citizenship and have made a splendid contribution to the establish- ment of an orderly democracy in your school. Donald O'Hara Guy H. Hill, A. M. Principal Tl-IE PRINCIPAL SAYS: Greetings! You are a good gang, a set of straight shooters, a body of thinking citizens working for the good of the group. To me there have been two most gratifying practices in our school this year. First, the practice in self-direction. No one ever attains perfection in self-direction, but you have made great strides in this very important matter. Second, the practice in cooperation. You have recognized the other fellow and have so di- rected your actions as to make the other fel- low's life happier. To be a part of such an organization causes one to run the risk of be- coming too satisfied with his lot. Don't be- come satisfied-keep practicing. Guy H. Hill Nine

Smith Desired Addition to School Assured By Board' of Education Endeavors By JANE lNll.lSSELXlAN Lansing High School over the difficulties and problems of the school year. The members of the Board are Mr. S. E. Crowe, president, Mrs. Ida Nahstoll. secretary, and Mrs. Hazel Gower. Dr. R. M. Clin. Mr. Chester Allen, and Mr. C. V. Ballard, trustees. Because of the increased enrollment of the school. Mr. E. C. Smith has been included in the Board as another trustee. During the last nine months, the Board has done something more than the routine work of managing finances and regulating school poli- cies. lt is through this group and theirefforts that a new addition is to be made to the school. They have held many extra meetings. The Board of Education has again led East and spent a great deal of time in working out the program. The government and the P. W. A. have made the additions possible, as the government offered to give part of the money if the city of East Lansing would furnish the rest. In elections held in November and Feb- ruary. East Lansing voted to carry out their part of the bargain. At the time this book goes to press. it is only a matter of selling the bonds before the actual work will begin. Even the contracts have been prepared, so that they may be let at the earliest possible time. And all the time behind these activities, the Board of Education has been pushing the pro- ject on, until now the improvements are prac- tically a reality. At least they will be-with thanks to the Board! Eight
