There are many things that should be said in the annual message of the Principal. I am concerned about the future and the part young people will play in forming this future of theirs. Science, politics and domes- tic and world problems dominate the thinking of all of us. We have all seen on television and read in magazines and newspapers of the methods and the ambitions of communists to dominate the world. Their unwillingness to understand the feelings and views of other people and their clever, well-planned methods of gaining control are things with which we are all familiar. You, as young Americans, have an obligation that should be pursued with a pas- sion. Your obligation is to be patriotic, dedi- cated Americans. Patriotism is more than flag waving; it is something that you must live and practice every day of your life. To love one ' s country, to defend, .praise and be- lieve in it is not an old fashioned ideal; it must become the latest fashion of all Americans, of all people who still have the privilege of living in a democracy if we are to preserve this country of ours. My concern for the future is my concern for democracy, and for what you young people can and will do to preserve it. The millions of dollars, we, as a country, spend annually to combat juvenile delinquency and the millions spent on law enforcement drama- tize all too clearly that many of our young people need somehow to be taught patriotism and need to understand that act? of vio- lence and vandalism are not expressions of democracy. If we are to accept the challenge issued by President Kennedy, . . . to see what you can do for your country . . . let all young people approach graduation with a determi- nation to dedicate themselves as symbols of democracy to live and to act as good Americans. A man who is contented with what he has done will never be famous for what he will do. Let us not be content with ourselves; don ' t leave patriotism and loyalty for some- one else. You take an active part in the affairs of your community, state and coun- try. You do your share to make your genera- tion famous for keeping America the strong leader among the peace-loving peoples of the world. Mr. Russell B. Marshall
