Class of 1957: History reveals that the growth of civilization has been characterized by periods', or ages', in which scientific development has greatly influenced the lives of the people. Each new age has provided more op- portunities than the pastg and at present we are living more comfortably than at any time in our country's history. You are graduating into a society which is greatly influenced by recent developments in electronics and atomic energy. You have heard several competent speakers give you a glimpse of the exciting future, and you have been assured that opportunities exist for those who are prepared to take advantage of them. However great the need for scientists and specially skilled individuals may be, the need for a citizenry that will continue to protect the dignity of man, his rights and individuality, and to preserve our democratic way of life is equally great. You, the citizens of tomorrow, must practice the democratic principles you have learned in order to preserve them. Good luck. EDGAR I.

OUR PRINCIPAL . . HUGHES BRININGER B.S., Susquehanna University. Ed. M., Uni rsity o g To the Senior Class: Many of you have looked forward to your commence- ment from high school with considerable eagerness. However, your earlier thoughts that this occasion would terminate your preparation for the career of your choice have dissolved with a fuller understanding of the com- plexity of society and the increasing demands for more and better trained individuals. We hope that your days at Penn High School have prepared you well to continue this training, enabling you to progress into places of greater responsibility and service. Opportunities for success occur many times to all individuals, but only those Who possess the char- acter, initiative, and preparation are able to take advan- tage of them. Congratulations to each of you and best Wishes for success and happiness in the future. HUGHES BRININGER A We look to Mr. Brininger for advice and encouragement, for he has a personal interest in the welfare of every one of us.
