High School Principal - MR. KENNETH G. BILLS To rm: Cmss or 1964: During your school life you have completed many projects in school living - assignments, tests, discussions, research, class activities, etc., most of which were enjoyable.

ADMINISTRATION iSuper11ising Principal, MR. GLENWOOD I. CRXST To rm: CLASS or 1964: 'Thomas Edison once said, I never did anything worth doing by accident. This concise remark is especially significant in an age which makes increasing demands upon our time, our intelligence, and our interests. Too often we seem to be spending more time planning for pleasure instead of our futures, weddings in- stead oi marriages, houses instead of homes. I once heard a man say, Ii I had planned my life like I do my vacations I could have been a millionaire. This might well he true because life is pretty much like taking a trip. If it is to he a success, we should select a destination in advance, a route, and a timetable. Edison-educated largely by his mother-became one of the greatest in- ventors in history through genius and hard work. He knew early in life where he wanted to go, and much of his work was devoted to finding the way. When com- plimented on his success, he would reply, Genius is one per cent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspiration. He would add that careful planning is necessary to unlock the secrets of a universe where only a supreme plan makes life possible at all. We cannot all be Edisons but we can lead rewarding lives if we select worth- while goals and plan how to attain them. Our best wishes go with the class of 1964 as they prepare to launch their ca- reers. May success and happiness come to each of you. Supervising Principal, ,Z , GLENWOOD J. Catsr
