EIRADEN FINEH 71... amz of vwzm NEXVPCJRT HARRoR UNION HIGH SCHOOL has again experienced a successful and prosperous year due mainly to the combined efforts of Mr. Davidson and the gratui- tous service of the Board of Trustees. The Board is composed of five capable men: Mr. D. J. Dodge fpresidentj, Mr. A. J. Fitzpatrick fclerkj, Mr. W. B. Mellott, Mr. J. A. Beek, and Mr. Braden Finch. Unfortunately, no picture of Mr. Beek appears because of his absence in govern- ment service. These men, who are elected by the voters of this district, are responsible for much of the administrative work in connection with the operation of this school. In fact, it might easily be said, that were it not for the Board, there would be no finanf cial operation, for the Board has- complete charge of all finances, bills, setting budgets and purchasing necessary supplies, and taking care of ancial items relative to the maintenance of the school. Each and every' one of us appreciate fully not only the time, effort the members of the Board of Trutees but also their unflagging enthusi absorbing interest in the school and its multiple activities. We especially Want to express our gratitude and sincere appreciation of Trustees for the new roof on the gymnasium, the transportation furnf athleifc tcams and for our Student Body assemblies.

MR. DAVIDSON XJ' 'H-114644-G-96 HE THEME selected by this year's Galleon staff is, I think, particularly appropriate because it is so typically American. Our school is not the governments school, not the school of privileged persons, not for exclusive service to the wellfborn and the wealthy. It belongs to all of us and within it, opportunity is equalized for every' one. We can indeed be proud of the activities so well illustrated in this Galleon. With the passing years the students of Harbor High have brought dignity and honor through achievements in classroom, laboratory, workshop and on the stage and athletic field. Our ideal has ever been one of outstanding effort linked with fair play and good sportsmanship. Because our school is dependent for its reputatfon on so many individuals, its pupils or citizens must be constantly on the alert to preserve its good name. Realizing that we are judged by the bad things done by the few, the overwhelming majority who stand for good must keep eternally vigilant. Approximately five hundred former Harborites are fighting on ground, sea and in the air all over the world so that democratic institutions like our school may not cease to exist. We at home have the obligation to work, give, and improve, striving ever to have the obligation to work, give, and improve, striving ever to keep our school, community and nation worthy of their sacrifice.
