ADMINISTRATION and FACULTY MR. LESLIE O. JOHNSON Principal To the members of the Class of 1949 The day to which you looked forward with so much anticipation in September 1945 is nearly here, and this Flicker is a part of your final high school program. It has been a privilege and a pleasure to have you in the Gloucester High School during these four years. Unfortunately every member of the class who started in September 1945 is not here. You have several new members in the class who have come to us from outside the city of Gloucester. It has been an interesting experience to watch you learn to get along together, working for yourselves and your parents under the leadership of the school. We have striven to train you to be independent, to be capable, and we hope, to be successful. We know we have not given you every thing that you wish, but through the excellent facilities furnished by our city you have had an opportunity to profit as much as you desired in your high school. As you study this Flicker today, and in the years to come, I hope you will reflect upon many incidents that made you happy and which help you to realize the opportunities that Gloucester High School offered you. If we at the high school have been successful in teaching you to work with others representing various faiths, creeds, and races; if we have made you believe that America is the land of opportunity for those who wish to take advantage of it, that you must recognize the rights of others, and that nothing should be done in your time and generation to break down the wonderful American tradition, then we of the faculty can be sincerely happy. Best of luck to each and every one of you and a cordial invitation to visit your Alma Mater whenever the opportunity presents itself. Page Eight
