Our way of life is being plagued on many different fronts by enemies who are deter- mined that we must be destroyed. One of the greatest weapons that we have to fight this continuous assault from our enemies is knowledge. An intelligent and well- informed citizenry is our strongest bul- wark against such foes. Within our country a great movement of automation is sweeping the nation. Countless labor-saving devices are creat- ing problems for many of our unskilled laborers. Those of us who will experience the most difficulties are the ones who have allowed their educational advancement to be interrupted. The drop outs are going to be the biggest losers. Therefore, it becomes clear that edu- cation will help solve many of the problems, both foreign and domestic, which we are bound to ehcounter. John Dolan, Viee-Principal COMPLIMENTS OF FORD MOTORS

NVA-t .- v- tum Allwrt Al. Lowry Assistant Superintendent Nearly forty per cent of the young men and women in this group will go on to college for at least a year. But for the majority of American youngsters, this is the hour of parting with formal edu- cation. They will go on to work, marry, raise children, vote. pay taxes--all without further schooling, some we have seen, are delighted to end their years of education because they lack funds to see them through an increasingly costly col- lege course. This need not be the case, because there are many ways other than enroll- ment at the traditional four year college for one to continue his education in America, to cite just a few: career training offered by the Army, Marines, New and Coast Guard, trade or voca- tional school, business and secretarial schools, and junior colleges. As our society grows more complicated and competitive, high school education becomes increasingly inadequate as a pre- paration for work and living. A general education is fine, but more is needed to- dny, and most people simply are not exposed in high school to all the skills filld knowledge they will ultimately need. A college diploma is now a routine re- quirement for most well-paying positions. There are exceptions, of course, but Iht' exceptions are becoming fewer, so we sincerely hope that the members of lhl5, the 1901 Class, have given serious Consideration and made plans to go on to some form of higher education.
