HILLTOP REPORT This page of the annual is designed to remind you. in years to come, of things you witnessed in national and world news this school year of 1952-1953. The Korean conflict has remained a serious threat. We've watched the peace talks with hope, only to see them fail time after time. Reports of casualties still pour ing the truce talks have been discontinued and the stalemate remains the same, which emphasizes the necessity for a continued build-up of strength in a chaotic and confused world. On the national scene, this was election year, the American people were to choose their leader for the next four years. Two able candidates, Adlai Stevenson and Dwight D. Eisenhower headed the Democrat and Republican tickets respec- tively. The American people, sensing the need for a change, elected Dwight D. Eisenhower, the first Republican to occupy the Whitehouse in twenty years, thus ending another era in American history. The death of Premier Joseph Stalin was an unexpected incident which further heightened the feeling of insecurity among peaceloving citizens througlwui U19 world. Georgi Malenkov became successor to Stalin. resulting in an apparent shake- down among communist leaders. The year 1953 has been designated as coronation year in England, with Queen Elizabeth becoming the reigning monarch. Although the Dowager Queen Mary pass- ed away unexpectedly, the coronatiou will be an event of the month of June as originally planned. Turning back to the national scene, items which have received a great deal of comment throughout the past school year we-re as follows: The widespread flu epidemic: new atomic explosions, the thirty-fourth having taken place in mid-March: and several air clashes between communist and American aircraft over supposedly neutral zones. Thus, a school year passes, others will come and go. News will be repeated. and each will have its distinguished incidents. These outstanding events will al- ways be associated in our minds with '52 and '53 at Pleasanton High School. The Editor
