I trust that you have learned well the skills of your vocation, the related technical knowledge needed to apply these skills, and the general information which each of us must have to be an intelligent citizen in his community. In making the decisions of life, when you know you are right and the friends in the crowd are wrong- Many of life's most rewarding experiences have come about because certain persons have chosen to be different. The inventor, the scientist, and the explorer have shared their special knowledge and have directed their talents toward the enrichment of mankind.

It is they who do the liaison between the administration and the faculty. Those who provide leadership and act as spokesmen for their departments are: Mr. Esmond Whitney, Automotive Trades; Mr. Frank Drake, Metal Trades; Mr. Donald Valk, Electrical Trades; Mr. Russell Bear, Physical Science; Miss Anna Schwertzler, English; Mr. Sam Harrison, Building Trades; Mr. Harold McCrae, Mathematics; and Mr. Forrest Smith, Orientation. The results of the endeavor and the plan- ning of this group are felt by everyone in the school. They keep a sharp and discerning eye pointed always toward improvement in the selection, use, and care of all texts, workbooks, and reference materials; in the ordering and employment of materials and supplies; and in the development of more efficient shop, laboratory, and classroom organization and application by student and teacher alike. Thus their duties and obligations are most important. And thus we see that Macom-ber's human relations and satisfactory student-faculty morale are given intense consideration. 8
