We e Hep DASHING between city and valley campus, Superintendent Bud Quade kept a steady pace, working out his busy schedule of conferences, meetings, and solving pressing problems. In addition to the routine, having a school building program al- ways adcls extra work beyond the call of duty. Mr, Quade worked tirelessly toward the passage of bonds that would insure adequate school build- ings. Members of this year's Senior Class will soon be assuming the responsibilities of adult citizens. For many, these obligations are just around the corner. For others, graduation will be a stepping stone to higher education before much thought is given to job and family responsibilities. Regardless of your immediate plans, you have an ultimate obligation to the young men and women who follow. Your education has been made possible through the combined efforts and sacrifices of many. Our system of public education is the finest the world has ever known, and you are charged with the respon- sibility of making certain that the basic philosophy of I O ortunities for All continues as an f In the final Educationa pp 'ntegral part of our American way of li e. d women will receive the I analysis, our young men an kind of education that adult citizens want them to have. This then is your responsibility to assure future generations that our system continues to flourish on an ever-improving basis. In closing I would like to convey my personal thanks and congratulations to the members of our student body for their many fine accomplishments during this school year. Well Done! Sincerely, Guilford W. Quade District Superintendent

Condac tv A DREAM COME TRUE, at last! were the thoughts of Mr. William Rodney, Mr. G. W. Quade and Mr. Leo D. Calac, as they inspected the first of the new buildings. Many hours of discussion, planning, and gathering information by this ad- ministrative trio at E.U,l-l.S. helped make it possible for students in years to come to have suitable conditions for learning. AFTER THE LONG-AWAITED VICTORY of the school bonds, the school board was finally oble to make further plans for the development of more buildings. This build- ing program has required the undivided time and energy of Mr. Quade and our Board of Trustees. Through the work of these men, Mr. Donald Short, Mr. Chester Galyean, President William Kennedy, Super- intendent Bud Quade, General C. P. Kane and Mr. Colley Jeffers, many vital decisions have been made. 3?

ONE OF THE BUSIEST persons in E.U.H.S. was Mr. Radney, our Princi- pal. The responsibility of active Escon- dido Union High School rested on his shoulders, his was the important job of keeping the school running smoothly. His biggest task was arranging the school schedule to include the many activities and still not interfere with the teachers' class schedules. This, along with every-day matters and un- expected occurrences, took up much of his time, yet he was a familiar fig- ure at almost every sport and social event out on by the students. Wm. y N ,, V With neva ement and Dear Students, We have come to the close of another very impor- tant and successful school year. Many accomplish- ments which have been realized during this year by our community and our school will be of tremendous help to our future educational program. Your parents and friends of education succeeded in passing a long needed bond issue which will be used for completing facilities at Valley Campus, making it possible to house all four grades at one location. The orbiting ofthe first earth satellite this year has focused even more attention on our educational pro- gram. We have been criticized for our shortcomings and praised for our achievements. Our community has recognized our high scholastic records, our un- precedented athletic feats, and our superior cultural interests. The events of the current year have extended a new challenge to all Americans. We have faith in you and believe that you will meet this new challenge that is ours today. lt is the duty and obligation of every American youth to fully prepare himself for adult citizenship and leadership. The future of America depends upon the efforts and skills of students such as you. We are confident that our departing friends, the seniors of '58, will meet their share of this new chal- lenge. Good luck, Seniors! Sincerely, W. P. Radney, Principal
