As we approach graduation, we realize that we must rely on our own Self-Direction. Naturally we wonder where our destinies lie. The answer depends upon how well we have and will adapt the guidance of others to our own individual lives.

Dedication We count on the dedicated men and women in our schools to impart knowledge, enthusiasm, and a sense of spiritual values to the young and thus continually help to develop a strong and enlightened citizenry.” Dwight D. Eisenhower We, the graduating class of Lancaster, consider our- selves most fortunate in having received what we be- lieve was that type of guidance from our teachers at Lancaster. We, therefore, respectfully dedicate this 1963 CAYUGAN to two outstanding teachers, Miss Marie Diana and Mr. James Kelleher who, by their excellent teaching, have provided us with a valuable start toward our goal in becoming part of that “strong and enlightened citizenry.” MR. KELLEHER, during his years at Lancaster, has helped to present a significant and valuable insight into America’s past, her present, and perhaps her fu- ture. His wide knowledge of American government sparks the interest of many students. Through his method of teaching, independent thinking on the part of the individual is encouraged. Thus, students as our future citizens are made aware of the problems facing their nation. MISS DIANA: teaching years at Lancaster have proved to be of great value to her students. Through her dedication and hard work, world history is made interesting and profitable. She makes it easier to learn difficult subject matter by mixing humor with strictness, thus encouraging a relaxed and enjoyable class atmos- phere. Through motivation, example, and encourage- ment, Miss Diana draws the best from each individual and sends them on toward their higher goals with better trained minds and improved attitudes.

The members of the Senior Class wish to extend heartfelt thanks and appreciation to Mr. Leo Koester. Since our sophomore year, he has given us his valuable assist- ance as class adviser. Without his inspira- tion and guidance many of our achieve- ments would not have been realized. THANKS, “Pop,” for guiding us through these important years! 26 Appreciation We wish to thank Miss Mabel B ates. We appreciate the many hours of dedicated effort she has put into the crcation of our 1963 Cayugan, thus making it possible for us to have a tangible remembrance of our years at LCSHS.
