PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE Each of you is to be congratulated on the step that you have now taken in becoming one of many millions of high school graduates. Your lot has not been an easy one be¬ cause you were born in a chaotic world: your life has been marred by periods of war--hot and cold. The world has become even more confused; each day, changes have been made that would make that which is modern one year, ob¬ solete the next. As you well know, your completion of high school is one step in the many that you must take if you are going to keep up with the pace that is set for living today. You have reached a crossroad, and at this point, you must make this decision: whether to make sacrifice and progress or whether to take the easy road and decay. The decision is yours! What will it be? You have made it this far. But the future belongs to those who take advantage of ALL opportunities. What will you do? The school and staff, your parents and guardians, your community, your state and nation wish you much success. Will this world be better because of you? The decision is yours! Sincerely, L. D. Draper, Principal 2

This issue of the ’’Lighthouse is humbly dedicated as a memorial to Major Willie T. Brickhouse, a graduate of the 1953 class of Nort¬ hampton County High School. Major Brickhouse lost his life December 26 in a helicopter crash in South Vietnam. While in Vietnam he received an Army Commenda¬ tion Metal for outstanding work as G-2 assistant to the chief of the 8th Infantry Division in Germany. These lines from Henry Long¬ fellow truly describe Major Brick- house’s life--’’Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave be¬ hind us footprints on the sand of time--Footprints, that perhaps another. Sailing o’er life ' s solemn main, a forlorn and ship wrecked brother, seeing, shall take heart again . Class of 1968
