GRADUATES You are leaving the ivy covered halls of Niles to enter an atomic age, an age where man ' s expanding frontiers of know¬ ledge have given us an ever shrinking world. This is a world where the advent of speeds faster than that of sound has put the other side of the world less than twenty- four hours away. We have tried to give you knowledge of the technology which made these ad¬ vances possible, but more than that we hope we have given you an insight into how to exist and get along not only with your classmates, but with all the people on this world of ours. As you understand people and as you work with people for the liberties and freedom of the individual, you give the best evidence of what America ' s system of public education means to the future and to the world. fjosepl Qfl a son Joseph A.
