ROBERT S. WHITE High School Principal Muskingum College, A.B. University of Pittsburgh, M. Ed. T0 THE CLASS OF 1949 You, the class of '49, had the courage to promise that you would produce the biggest and best Petosean ever published in Perry Township High School. That you have suc- ceeded is beyond question. This pioneer spirit will surely carry you to successful endeavor in later life. You have received valuable training in school but do not forget that life itself is a school and education goes on. In life you will determine what you will learn. The good and the bad will be woven into your char- acter. Let these words be your guide in the years to come. I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow- creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again. ROBERT S. WHITE DMI G. EDGAR HIBBS Supervising Principal West Virginia University, AB. University of Pittsburgh, M.Ed. TO THE GRADUATES OF 1949 Yours is a privileged generation. You are graduating into a world filled with the wonders of which men once not even dreamed. Yours is the jet-propelled plane, the television screen, the guided missile, the secrets of the split atom-the marvels of the first half of the twentieth century. You go soon into the second half of our century-and with this privilege goes also a challenge and a trust. To you is given the sacred charge of these man-made marvels- to mould them into uses for a better tomor- row, and to give your generation and genera- tions yet to come a heritage and a culture and a civilization unequalled on the face of the earth, undreamed of by any of us now. lt is your generation who must accept these gifts and mould them into advancement or use their unleashed forces toward destruc- tion. lt is your choice, it is your responsibility. May God guide you and give you strength and aid. Sincerely, G. EDGAR HIBBS
