gage 37m i A Math nf Explanatinn The 1949 Pioneer is an experiment. For the first time it is a project of the entire school, not, as has been the tradition, a project of the Senior Class, and also. it marks the first time that a Greenhills annual has been reproduced by modern photo-lithography. In giving the school this yearbook, we have attempted to have as many pictures as possible, and a minimum of copy. tAn annual is in reality nothing but a picture summary of the school year, in the iirst placeJ There is one thing we regretted in making out this annual. Because all copy had to be iinished by March 15, it was necessary to omit various pictures, prognosticate in the calendar, and have the baseball and track pictures taken before the squads were iinally selected. Before you continue further throughout the annual, we would like to call your attention to certain features. First. there is the airbrush artwork by Corinne Butz and Tom Ries. Second. opposite each large senior picture is a list of their deeds and a personality paragraph written by Gene Kilb. Third, there is the calendar with a page provided for each month. Instead of the spicy pin-up girl, we have substituted photographs of activities equally as interesting.

iHnremnrh No date will ever be more significantly appropriate to the Greenhills nickname of iiPioneets than the year 1949, one century after the trek of the famous forty-niners to the West. The theme of this annual very effectively portrays the features of living and going to school in Greenhills as coincidental to the experiences and purposes of the pioneers of that early day. True, some of these people headed west with selfish motives, but most of them Went because they had faith that beyond the horizon lay an opportunity yet better than that provided for their forefathers on the Atlantic seaboard. They had visions ofibrighter prospects for themselves and their posterity by ever expanding the new frontiers. In their determination to find a better life they were undaunted by the obstacles confronting them and the odds that were against them. No work was too hard not any sacrifice too great for them to face in order to achieve their goals. They Were concerned for the establishment of a better chance for their children to enjoy a fuiler life in a land of greater promise. They trusted in God that He would aid them in the realization of their high purposes. For you HPioneers of 1949 the pioneers of 1849 have left some very challenging standards of living. By adopting them, you also have within you the possibilities of rendering a great service to your country and to mankind generally. The pioneers of today must regard as a prime objective the creation of a better life for peoples all over the world who have been denied the blessings of freedom and opportunity that have been bestowed upon us so abundantly by the pioneers of other years. The modern frontier is the world. Beyond the horizon lies therprospect of peace and brotherhood among all men. May these be the objectives that will challenge and inspire true Pioneers through another hundred years. ' Most Sincerely, R. A. YOUNG $392 Uhree
