Our Superintendent A BRUCE DENNISTON B.S., University of Pittsburgh M.A., University of Pittsburgh Ph.D., University of Pittsburgh To the Class of 1948: In the world today we witness a terrific struggle being waged between two opposing philosophies of government— communism, as characterized by the Union of Soviet Repub- lics, and democracy, as characterized by the United States of America. 1 am deeply concerned for the outcome of this con- test. I note an appalling apathv among eligible voters in our country for their responsibilities and duties as citizens of the nation. This indifference has resulted not only in corruption and inefficiency in our democratic form of government, but it has also enabled certain opportunist individuals to spread their foreign principles of government among our citizens. When our forefathers established the American form of democracy they recognized that only through the develop- ment and maintenance of a thorough system of free public education could the form of government which they had established be made to function in the manner that they envisaged. It follows then that you, the graduating class of 1948, who represent the highest stage of development of that free public school system have a definite responsibility to use the skills, the knowledge, the ideals which you have attained through high school not only to make a living but also for the service anti improvement of that government. If the people are to remain the sovereign power, if the will of the people is to be the law of the land, if an act of the government is to be an act of the people, then it is absolutely essential that you be concerned about and show a willingness and disposition to par- ticipate actively in the responsibilities of American citizenship. A. Bruch Denniston Dr. Denniston has a deep interest in the wel- fare of the students of Penn High. . . He likes to discuss class projects as he and Lawrence Pfaff, the senior class president, are doing in this picture. ..Dr. Denniston is busy with conferences, conventions, and meetings of committees of which he is a member— all for the purpose of bringing better education to Greenville, and yet he always finds time to talk things over personally with anyone who wants help or guidance.
