MR. JOHN QUIRK PRINCIPAL Dear Graduates of 1968: Boone, Lewis and Clark. Washington, Lincoln, Lindbergh, Salk, the Astronauts--the list of pioneers of our nation is a glorious one. Each, in his own way, was a first in service to our country and her people; each was a first in selfless devotion to her ideals; each was a first in personal sacrifice to her welfare over private well-being. In your own way, you, and many members of this school's faculty, are joined together by the common thread of pioneer--of being first. You are the first graduates of Longwood to receive all of your education in this building. Your pioneering lies in service--your noblest contribution to your school takes form and shape in the heritage you leave for those who will follow you. If you have, in some small way, made straight the crooked path, and smoothed the rough ways for those following you, you have left a mark of spirit and character as indelible as stone and as ageless as time. Many are the honors and distinctions you have brought to Longwood and to yourselves; much have you given of yourselves to the life and spirit and growth of your school; much of you will remain long after your names fade into the history of Longwood . Your pioneering comes to an end but your future lies before you--a future made straight and smooth by the countless men and women who have given of themselves as pioneers for you. John F. Quirk Principal 60

It is a pleasure to extend greetings to you, the class of 1968. Life begins with a vision. It makes no difference how old you are or how many years you may live, if you have not had a vision of constructive, creative usefulness for your life, you have never really lived. Quite naturally, we hope that Longwood High School has helped you to receive a vision for your life. If your dream is only material and selfish, you may be financially successful, but your life will be empty and meaningless. If, instead, you dream of a better community and a better world--a world of peace and opportunity--there will be many mountains to scale and deserts to be crossed. Look into the future with hope, courage, and determination to make your life's ambition come true. Whether serving your country in its search for world peace, going directly to work or preparing for higher education, keep your ideals high and ever better. Upon your vision, rather than upon the hydrogen bomb, may depend the peace of the world. MR. ROBERT BULLOCK
