FDREUDRD The theme of the 1953 Laurel represents the advancement of the students from the seventh grade to Senior status by using the idea of a train and the many stations at which it stops. During the high school year the students have also stopped at many stations--their home rooms, the office, classes, the cafeteria, athletic contests, dances, Forensic tournaments, the prom, plays, assemblies, clubs, and the library. They have needed just as the operation of a large train requires, able leaders and initative to seek for the diploma attainable at graduation. In the years to come this train journey may be relived by simply turning the pages of this book. No ticket will be required. The adults of 1973 will not have to leave their homes to travel once again in word and picture through the school year of 1952-’53. The Laurel Staff has tried to picture some point of interest at every station stop, so ALL ABOARD !

As the Seniors prepare to leave Laurel Valley on train number 1953, they are proud to dedicate this first volume of THE LAUREL to their fellow students with whom they have enjoyed many happy hours both at work and at play on the Laurel Valley locomotive. The students of today and of the future must prepare themselves for the useful work that their minds and hands must do in the years that lie ahead. Youth is continually experimenting in the field of science and constantly searching for truth and tolerance. Our schools have two purposes--To permit every student to pursue his education, a vital factor in the molding of his career and future livelihood, and .o encourage activities to develop sportsmanship and character. In this closely knit world the success or failure of Democracy will depend on how well all classes can live and work together duriftg their high school days. If this lesson in co-operating with others for the good of all is well-learned at Laurel Valley, the citizens of the Unites States need have no fear for the future. These boys and girls will carry on the principles on which our country was founded. As we, the Seniors, prepare to leave, we are proud to salute the student body by dedicating this yearbook to them. 5
