Y. 2 'r ,,,,,,r ..., ..,,,-S Mr. john Randolph Er. The Consu Spea as To ibe Clary 0f1958.' Few high school graduating classes have been forced to face as many challenges as loomed before the Class of 1958. When you came to your new high school, you were compelled to assume leadership. No traditions were established which would help to mold your per- sonalitiesg no student-inspired activities were in exist- enceg no student leaders were here to point the way. The magnificent manner in which you responded to this challenge has made me proud to say, Congratulations ! to all of you. You are leaving your school to enter a world which has greater need of educated men and women than ever before, Knowledge, training, and skills are the tools which are in demand in this rapidly expanding world of the mid-twentieth century. During the next few years you will find many opportunities to broaden your education. If you would serve both yourselves and your community, you will find a way to build upon the training which you already have received here. That is the new challenge which faces the Class of 1958. We, the faculty administration, wish you, our first graduating class, success and good fortune. If leader- ship should once more come to you, we know that you will accept the responsibility with courage and self reliance. Priuriplfl qv' Mrs. Mary Olsen Serrelary lo Mr. Randolph .A,. .

Today we learn foreign languages by choice rather than necessity. Each student who wishes to study a foreign language is offered the choice of Spanish, French, German, or Latin. In addition to learning the language, the student is exposed to the customs, culture, and history of the countries in which the language is spoken. The study of a foreign language helps us to understand our neighbors overseas and creates a basis for the hope of world peacx X 1 Q cp al '67 ii IANGUAGF If '1 M' Mia as M Ld' ' J i . 1: .8ff0fl.Q2f.' iss i re pano, r. u wig I, , ,M ' Tf,B M L ju jj 1 Kronheim, Mr. john XXfhitebread, Mi: Louis Anastasio CChair- ' jffwf f,Qf',.'ffe mZj,mlTyfZ2 jtlfulgfgiliijllfllj I 6 fund!! manl. , ,qi , ,. f ff Lr3 ' ' ' A r' ' 4 , .. -l P' Mfr, Cain pain!! 0111 a French painiing MV.
