1938 GREENWITCH 1938 The Athletic Committee has sold season tickets to football and baseball games. It has sponsored dances after basketball games and sold candy to raise the always needed money for equipment. The Safety Committee has inaugurated a new system of patrolling the halls, chosen boys from the upper rooms have been stationed at posts in the halls before and after school and between periods. This is to prevent congestion and unnecessary trouble. The committee sponsored a movie in an assembly which demonstrated the rights and wrongs of safety. The Scholarship and Honor Committees have endeavored to promote among the students a better feeling of pride and achievement in their work and also show the advantages of good marks. At Christmas time the Council sponsored Christmas baskets which received many contributions from the townspeople. These were distributed to the needy families in and about the village. The Council, this year, has been very profitable and we are sure that it has shown that the student government with the co-operation of the faculty is satisfactory for our school. 9

1938 GREENWITCH 1938 A MESSAGE TO THE SENIORS: In this last word of counsel to you, I wish, not only to congratulate you upon your successful completion of your High School course, but also to point out to you your greater responsibilities and duties to your neighbors from this point forward. No group, graduating from school, has ever faced a world more seething with unrest, greed, suspicion, and hatred. In its midst, I point out the road of brotherly love and affection as the desirable landmark and rule and guide for you to follow. It may be stated as a truism that none of us were born to live in the narrow groove of a selfish individual. It is the Creator's plan that we should live together as friends and neighbors in mutual dependence and support. This is the primary objective of our school, and an inflexible demand upon you as you face the responsibilities of life in your approaching maturity. No school, no home, and no community can fashion this growth if dissension, self- ishness, suspicion and coercion exist. It is absolutely destructive to follow a course of unbridled individualism and intolerance. Although you may feel helplessand alone, you cannot escape or shirk your share in this great responsibility. The school demands that you do your best in that which lies nearest to you, and that you see in your associates that which you desire them to see in you. The riches represented by money are often illusory and unsatisfying, but the richness of the mind and spirit endure forever and give emotional satisfaction which is permanent and never ending. -J. H. RIPTON. 11
