Each has a definite role to play in as- suring that Fenger High School shall take the largest place it is capable of taking in secondary education and in the life of our community. You as intelligent Fenger citizens must accept the re- sponsibilty Which this citi- zenship carries: the respon- sibility to accept and the responsibility to resist: the responsibility to lead and the responsibilityfgiimnvf thdgnsi- b1l1ty to care for the interests of one's own group and the responsibility never to hold these interests above the Welfare of all groups. Fenger citlzenship includes a sense of time. We are here today: others preceeded us, others Will follow us The past has left its obligations: the future will grow out of successful present. .WM ,egg - .- sv 1- ,-v-.f -ww'-' '-- -- , 6
