A WORD FROM OUR DIRECTOR Robert Sealey Lowell Wiggins Principal Vice-principal Dean Sabey and Rich Saboe, student body ofiicers, confer with Mr. Sealey and Mr. Wig- gins. AS MAN HAS CHALLEN GED nature at its roots and overcome the -force of gravity, so must we continue to challenge a problem even greater than those of the physical and natural sciencesg the problem of man's understanding of man. Never before has so great a challenge presented itself more forcefully than in this era of misunderstand- ing and ideological conflict. To meet this challenge our goal can no longer be to acquire a certain terminal degree of education but must be to ac- quire the skills and disciplines necessary for con- tinuous education throughout life. Modern communication has provided the mass media necessary for this continual educational process, but this challenge cannot be met by the Work of a few. We must continue our scientific advances through mathematics and chemistry but we cannot aiord to lose pace with advances in the social sciences. We must continue to move forward in conquering the new frontiers in space, but also we must conquer the sociological mysteries that lead man to war. Robert D. Sealey . Lrg -. :V :Egg .4 Two

When the curtain opened, we were born 5 the intermission is the teenage or in-between years, while the closing of the curtain will symbolize death. Keeping this in mind, the Pirates' Log staff of 1962 has based this year's theme on the following quotation by William Shakespeare: All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances . . . This year's book portrays the sections as theidiierent acts of a play with the activities serving as a natural intermission. One may also imagine the different classes to be acts in a large production, Highline High School. Whatever play it may be, the most important point is that you, as a student, are a part of it. q THE PIRATES' LOG ' Published by A Highline High School Student Association Seattle, Washington Vol. 35 I 1961-62

SPOTLIGHTING OUR STAR WE ARE NOW NEARING the end of the second act, the formative years. Soon we will be faced with the world, and We will be expected to run it efficiently even though it may be more compli- cated than When our forefathers ran it. We should look back now to thank silently all of the teachers Who have contributed so much time and effort to our education. What We will become and what the future of our generation will be rests largely in their hands. In Mr. Larry Lemmel's room is a large sign, You are here to learn to THINK. This sign illus- trates very well his main objectivesg to prepare students, to condition them to the World, and to teach them to think about their future and the future of their country, so that they may produce a better World than their forefathers did. Recog- nizing and respecting his degree of excellence, the Pirates' Log staff of 1962 proudly shines the spot- light of honor on Mr. Lemrnel, in appreciation for the years he has dedicated to the art of teaching. Three Larry 'Lemmel Mr. Lemmel lectures intently to his contemporary problems class.
