Carl F. Hensinger Principal of High School M.A., Lehigh University To the Seniors: You seniors are now completing an important step in your life, the significance of which will become more apparent to you in the years ahead. Your parents are making your graduation possible at considerable per- sonal sacrifice and expense. Your education is indeed a valuable part of your American heritage-something which has come to be regarded as the right of every American boy and girl. Let me assure you that each of you has had the oppor- tunity to prepare himself well for his role in the modern world. The most important part of your education was acquired in your home under the direction of your parents and your church. In the classroom and in your school and community activities you have had the op- portunity to work with groups of students and develop your individual talents in accordance with your interests and ambitions. You have developed self-discipline, the basic skills of learning, and the knowledge which you will need in this modern world. Thus, you have had the privilege of acquiring a good education. May I remind you that along with privileges go certain responsibilities. Now it becomes your responsi- bility as a citizen to keep yourself well informed about the events in your community, state, nation, and world so that you can act intelligently to improve your modern world. May this Nutshell with the theme Educating Youth for the Modern World ever remind you of your responsibilities of American citizenship. May you bring credit to yourselves, to your com- munity, and to your school as you seek to achieve success and happiness in this great democracy. Good luck! Sami Margaret M. Binker Assistant to the High School Principal M.S., Temple University

Our Faculty The scholastic achievements of our alumni are high testimonials to the quality of Moorestown's faculty, for the success of our students is to a large degree con- tingent upon the training our teachers have received. A large number of them have earned their Master of Arts degrees, while a few have attained the equivalent of their doctorates. In addition, our teaching staff makes full use of extension and summer school courses in col- ROBERT G. ALLEN Physical Education, Science B.S., Penn State University BARBARA S.

Yet despite their continuous study, our teachers are by no means pedagogues. We feel they are both coun- selors and friends from whom we learn how to live wholesome and useful lives. We are indeed fortunate to work with such a well-trained, dedicated, and sym- pathetic staff. DONALD J. APAI Business Education B.S., Rider College GRETCHEN S.
