James M. Sanak, Arnold Wenner, Earl Wold, and James Heilig, under the direction of Mr. C. Ray Adams, are mainly responsible for the printing and compiling of this book. These boys were assisted by Robert Thomas, Louis Tarantino, Roy Hoffman, Robert Youngs, Joseph Funfgeld, and Fred Bartels. Because of their ability, hard work, cooperation, and school spirit, they have made an unusually fine contribution to our school. Not least to their credit is the fact that they have turned out a professional job though they are handicapped by a lack of professional equipment. The 1947 Yearbook Staff greatly appreciates their effort. The drawing used as frontispiece for the Senior edition and as cover for the underclassmen edition, was done by Henry Carlsen.

To the class of 1947: It is a privilege to live in a nation built by persons of all creeds, classes, and nationalities and to enjoy the opportunities offered by it. This is true, especially, concerning our public schools. One reason for our country’s greatness is the fact that it was founded upon the principle that men are created equal. During the last war, men of all creeds, classes and nationalities served, fought, and died side by side that our country might continue to be a land of opportunity. These men served for a common cause and respected and protected the rights of others. Tolerance was no problem for them. It just came naturally. Your high school life has provided valuable experience in working and serving with your associates. This same spirit will become a part of your life whether you go to college, into business, or into any other field of your choice. May you continue this respect for others and may you uphold the principles of democracy which will live to keep our nation strong and great. It is a great pleasure for me to extend to each one of you my sincere congratulations upon your graduation. May you keep strong and steadfast that your future may be one of much success and abundant happiness. E. H. LeBARRON, Superintendent
