[I ALBERT BATTEN The official staff, the teachers, and the students of the Pittsburg Public Schools deeply deplore the untimely passing of Albert Batten. He was not only an alumnus of the school, but also a mem- of our Board of Education from 1943 until his death in 1945. Mr. Batten was uniformly kind, understanding, public- spirited, and helpful. His death is a serious loss not only to the school system to fhe entire community which he so ably served. He will long be held in kindly and grateful remembrance.

TIME goes on whether we do or not. Each individual deter- mines for himself if he is to keep pace with the procession. May this yearbook, which is a valuable record for each of you, serve ever to refresh your memories of days when you were surging ahead at a rapid rate in step with the times and commensurate with the opportunities of the day. With your eyes to the future, with resoluteness in your hearts, with thanksgiving in your souls be happy that you face tomorrow. We cannot successfully back into the future; we must face the front and march determinedly if we would keep up with the procession. Lowell A. Small Superintendent of Schools
