FOREWORD We of the Parkland graduating class of 1952 will always look back and remember the things we cherished most. For some of us it will be the teachers, the classes; for others the dances, plays, sports, and various school activities. But the memory upon which we shall reflect the most will be the school in its general aspect. If we look back upon our past school years as an artist does his painting, we shall find it requires all these factors combined to give the full picture of our academic life at Parkland. We the class of 1952 recognize our indebtedness to the teachers and principals of Parkland High School, as well as to the under-classmen who offered so much to our class. We also give our heartiest thanks to Mr. Randall, who generously gave so much of his time towards the publication of this book. As the students of the class of 1952 leave Parkland and go forward to the future, we shall join millions of graduates that have preceded us as well as the many graduating with us this year. Let us hope that our class shall fulfill an honored place among America’s many graduates as we climb the tower to success!
