. ' • •■ ,! MR. E. S. CASTOR, Principal A.B., M.A. Ball State MR. JOE R. CRAW, Superintendent A.B., M.A. Butler University Graduates of this year are faced with many problems and many opportunities. Solving these problems and meeting these opportunities will con- stitute a life ' s work. A citizen ' s life can be a brilliant success or a miserable failure. The choice is within the grasp of each graduate of 1947. Armed with the deter- mination to share in the responsibility of making this a better world and secure in the belief that a high standard of character, tolerance, and sym- pathy for others are necessary for each Individual, each of this year ' s graduates cannot fail to achieve the goal of successful citizenship. Education is but one of a series of learning ex- periences which comes to an individual. Others will be even more challenging. All these experi- ences can contribute much to every individual if faced with courage, faith, and enthusiasm. To each member of the 1947 graduating class, I wish the finest that life has to offer. E. S. CASTOR Pri ncipal Congratulations to you of the graduating class of 1947. Many of you have found a challenge for additional preparation. Others of you have had sufficient social and work experience contacts which you feel qualify you to cease your school sojourn. All of you have surely found and solved, some of you have also found and left unsolved, problems of major Importance In social, physical, mental, and moral relationship. Our biggest task is to be genu- ine, ever-understanding of human weaknesses and strengths. The great single need for mankind is service. Let us perpetually work together in the realms of better citizenship so that we can continue to see the realities of our Democracy and reach goals to which our own manhood and womanhood aspire. JOE R. CRAW Superintendent City Schools

CLASSES AND FACULTY You mentioned how nice the feachers were and you are correct. Of course, there are TIMES v hen we students doubt that statement but then Our school curriculum has grown somewhat during the past three or four years — yes, even this year. With our eleven departments and with each department thinking up some new course, we soon won ' t be able to choose which courses we want most. For instance, wg have industrial arts, home economics, and commercial arts for those interested in vocational training. For the basics we have English, social studies, and mathematics. Then for those interested in other languages we have French, Latin, and Spanish. For those interested in becoming chemists, physicists, and biologists we have the sciences. Then there are music, art, and physical education which should never be omitted from any well-balanced curriculum. Some of the newer classes are Electronics 41, a boys ' cooking class, and a driving instruction class. In our driving instruction course we have a car in which the students can get practical experience as well as instruction. So you see, Mr. Haydn, we have plenty going on to keep us busy during school. Page Nine
