How far along this Super Highway will you go? You have now reached the first service station. Will you continue to the terminus of this great Educational Super Highway, or are you content with your experiences to date? The adventures of the remaining portion of the highway are wonderful and exciting. We hope you might finish the trip. Not necessarily the college adventure, but some addi- tional pleasant miles which will bring a type of skill, training, or prepara- tion that will help insure a happy life. This is our wish for the Class of 1949. cd MRS. ROMAYNE BUCKLEY Secretary MR. JAMES DUDLEY Assistant Principal Let's talk it ovei onli ., f EM ................
