Foreword Before you now is the Commander, the yearbook of General Douglas MocArthur High School. Its nome signifies leadership, ond this book itself is o leader, for it is the first: the first yearbook of the school from which it came, and very likely the first of its kind. If the Commander 1962 signifies leadership, it is because the Class of '62 personifies it. Our quality and our theme is ... Leadership. From the time we were freshmen in Salk, we were leaders of the school. Looking up to us, the lower classes have borrowed our style of clothing, our sense of humor, even our confident manner. How bravely we cleared o path through that jungle of knowledge so that others could follow! Our class forged ahead in languages, science, mathematics, every subject taught, some stu- dents reaching peaks that our younger friends will find difficult to attain. Building a reputation for the school in athletics was another of our jobs, ond the feats of quite a few of our classmates made lasting impressions on the Salk record. We led the citizenship of our old school in every way: os juniors, sophomores, or fresh- men, we headed clubs of all interests. We ran the news- paper and magozine, presided over the Honor Society, worked in the library, nurse s office, ond bookstore Given the opportunity to lead five closses, we used our abilities to best advantage. The transition from old and familiar to new ond excit- ing — from Jonos E Salk to General Douglas Mac- Arthur — was made witf a minimum of trouble, and with the first seniors toking their rightful place on top. During this last year, we continued in our roles of lead- ership and worked hard at different situations thot arose. Who initiated the battle for senior privileges'5 Who held the first Senior Prom and who performed the first graduation ceremonies'5 We, the Class of '62. As the first graduating class of our school, we hove a more important task: thot of setting the stondord that follow- ing classes and, more vital, colleges will recognize os MacArthur's. The colleges ond universities which we shall ottend are the goals for which the Classes of '63, '64, and '65 must aim. Finally, we give the Commander as a leader of many yearbooks to come The Com- mander. in the name and in design, symbolizes the prime characteristic of the Class of '62 — Leadership. 5
