Mid fanf enera! manager H. L. MUELLER Vice Principal Dean of Boys Geometry and Algebra FACING TH E FUTU RE Within the last year the Korean situation has changed the future plans and hopes of many members of the class of '5l. The resulting unrest and uncertainty has not come about without presenting its problems. During your high school days you are asked to write various tests. Through information gained from these tests and by counseling with faculty members and friends, perhaps many of you have learned something about yourself that may help you decide to go to college or choose some occupation that does not require further education. You have also been asked to pass through the at- tendance office to account for absence and tardiness, because punctuality and regularity in attendance are desirable traits of character to be developed in every student. lt is hoped that by accepting responsibilities and cooperating with other students and teachers you may realize the maximum benefits from your experiences in high school. ln whatever walk of life each graduate may choose to follow may he receive happiness and success. In this book are recorded numerous activities and incidents of school life that may help to preserve happy memories of days in Lemoore High. OFFICE STAFF Lett to right: Jenny Mahan, Attendance Secretary, Katherine Northomer, Office Secretary, Viva Reid, Secretary to Mr. Reilly and Accountant.
