u PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE With outside pressures such as we have had the past few years influencing school life, especially the war in Korea, it is with a great deal .of pleasure that we notice a more wholesome attitude towards school this year on the part of the students. We do not hear the students talk and worry about life in the various services, which branch to select, nor notice the pes- simistic attitude so many showed the last few years. Instead, we see more interest in school and more in- terest in making plans for the future. This is a very healthy situation and one that we hope to improve on even more. I believe that the adding of the work experience program to our curriculum has been one factor in giving the student a more objective point of view. On the pages of LA PURISIMA are shown many of the school's activities outside the classroom, and it is sincerely hoped that these activities add their part to a broader and more complete education for better citizenship. H. M. Hellekson SUPERINTENDL. WS MESSAGE Each year there comes a time when we lo hai on past accomplishments and then turn forwar A-QQ contemplate hopes, ambitions, and dreams of the fu- ture. In the 1954 LA PURISIMA, the achievements and activities of the students of Lompoc Union High School for the past year have been recorded for pos- terity. This is a splendid record excellently portrayed in a well-edited annual. In behalf of the Trustees and the Administration of the high school district, I am pleased to take this opportunity to congratulate the student body for their sincere endeavor in being good and substantial citi- zens, for the whole-hearted participation in the many school activities, for their excellent record of worthy accomplishment, and for their manifest desire to ben- C'fit frOm the opportunities of free public education. It is ia privilege for me to be associated with Lompoc High School and to be given this opportunity to ex- press my appreciation to the annual staff for the praise-worthy effort and note-worthy result - the 1954 LA PURISIMA.
