The Tone O Changes are taking place, not only in the lives of the students of LSHS, but in their community as well. In this, LaGrange,s most transitional year ever, it is appropriate that we pause amid the piling job on job to consider the effects of these changes, that we realize the extent of the alterations which are now in progress, and that we preserve forever in our memories the Visage ofthe city we have known for so long. Concern for posterity, however, should not impede progress, especially when progress signifies rising stan- dards in health care, the introduction of industry, the promotion of com- merce, and better educational oppor- tunities. Other evidences of this progress are the explosion of fast-food popularity and the location in LaGrange of sev- eral new industries. Textile is still king, but now paper, steel, rubber products, industrial supplies, and plas- tics are included. The results have been the creation ofjobs, the influx of families, and the consequent large- scale housing developments in primar- ily rural areas. There is, obviously, a new trademark for LaGrange, a city which is ever- growing, ever-changing, and every- ready to meet the needs of its citizens. We, who contribute to and ultimately benefit from this change, are ever- proud to be Grangers. 1. Whether your craving be fora Roast Beef or a Whopper, LaGrange's progress provided for it. 2.
