Dedication i We dedicate this annual to the future peace of our nation and to the many men who have given their lives for peace. The following expression from an article by Roelif Loveland expresses the students' feelings for our flag. “Its component parts are more than stars and stripes; they are the graves of those who have died that we might live; they are the hopes of our children's children for a brighter day; they are all the things we hope to im- prove in our nation so that all men may have the same advantages: they are courage in times of trouble and faith in the loving and understanding hand of God. 3

Administration Made This MR. MERLE BRYAN, Superintendent Under Mr. Bryan's capable supervision, M. has had two very successful years. He has served as a teacher, coach, and prin- cipal from 1955-59 at the East Side Building. He and his wife (Jane Bolinger) and their three sons Kelly, Mitchell, and Lonnie have lived in Union City since 1953. B.S., M.S., - Miami University Post-graduate work - Ball State University All things must end and you as graduating seniors have approached the end of one part of your life. In many ways the last year of high school is the most important be- cause it provides a good chance to clarify your thinking about ideals, values, and goals. Soon you will have left the protective atmosphere of familiar places and you must make important decisions as to jobs, future education, and the responsibilities of adult life and citizenship. The decision you make will probably affect the rest of your life. May you utilize those concepts from the home, the church, and the school which are basic to the development of a better community, state, and nation. You. as the youth of today, will be the leaders of tomorrow. Your responsibilities are numerous and you have mountainous perspectives however, no class before you has had a better foundation than you for meeting the problems you will encounter face to face. As it has been so well stated, Opportunities Await--Don’t Hesitate. Congratulations to the Graduating Class of 1966. DARKE COUNTY FARM BUREAU CO-OP ASSOCIATION Grain, Seed, Feed.
