I. HARRY HENSHAW Superiniendenf of Sclzoolf There are days in the lives of each of us that stand out like landmarks on the highway of life. It is doubtful if any event in our lives stands out more clearly in memory than the day we were graduated from the high school. You may go on and be graduated from the college and the university and enter professional life, but each of those events will lack that freshness and thrill which can he experienced only in the early morning of life. Someone has said, Carry the pleasant delusions of youth through to old agef' So in after years, it will be a pleasure for you to remember the pleasant anticipation with which you looked upon the future as you stepped out of school life and into lite's school. Xve all wish that the fondest hopes you have today will he realized in the days to come, Mrs. Gallagher and Nliss Shaw Filing Reports

administration This year is the first year of operation for the Hollidays- burg Community Ioint School District, which includes three boroughs and four townships. One of the changes brought about by this jointure is the creation ofa mammoth Board of Education. This new board is composed ofthe entire Hollidaysburg Board of Education as well as the entire boards of the other districts included in the jointure. The thirty-nine members of the Board represent the boroughs of Duncansville, Hollidaysburg, and Newry, and Allegheny, Blair, Frankstown, and Iuniata Townships. These Board members are responsible for the management and improvement of both the Hollidaysburg Iunior and Senior High Schools. Although this is the first year for the functioning of the large board, much fine work has already been accomplished. Plans 'are underway for a new Iunior High School, and an addition to the Senior High School will include a much-needed auditorium. We are certain that the Board will continue its excellent work in the years to come. Sealed, lqfl la righi: Snoberger, Treese, Perry, Hamill, Heverly, Delozier, Conrad, E. Magill.

YVhat has it meant to you'f The answer to this question is answered in as many ditlerent ways as there are graduates in the Class of 195-l. The various curricular and extra-curricular activities of the school have provided mantv ditlierent avenues ot' interest, work, and play tor each ol, lvou. Xvhile the academic students struggled with mathematics and languages, the commercial students were learning the intricacies of shorthand and typing, and the ag lmoys were learning contour farming and other approved farm practices. The home economics girls cooked and sewed as the ho-vs in the industrial arts shop fashioned cedar chests and gun racks. All ot' the prolmlems met and solved have had as their oliiective the making ol' competent citizens. Each ot' you should lie ahle and willing to accept the responsibilities of citizenship.
