Ron . . . Transferred from West Canada Valley Central School in late fall. RONALD KENN ET H GAGNON The Senior Class regrets the fact that Robert Lehmann, who was with us for ten years, moved to Norman, Oklahoma, due to a change in his father 's occupation Bob was a faithful friend and student. We would like to wish him the best of luck and success in the future. ROBERT W. LEHMANN Message from the Principal You have asked me to give you some parting advice as you leave Poland Central School. This kind of fortitudeon your part is most admirable and is exceeded only by my earnest enthusiasm to get in a few last words. Over the years I have seenirresponsible, carefree youth graduate from our public schools and invariably become thpughtfulcitizens concerned about standards of behavior and of culture in our society. Recent space age progress and scientific ways of thinking have somehow unsettled the confi- dence of many people in old ways of thinking. The increase in crime and violence,in delinquency and in dishonesty,is eVidel'lCe that S0Y1'1SIhiH8 is hap- pening to our inherited values such as duty, justice, beauty, honor, unselfish- ness. freedom. They are being questioned. Our school has tried to teach you that these values are eternal truths--guidelines for living--and should never be questioned. The greatest challenge confronting us as a nation and as individuals is that of raising, not lowering our standards of thought, behavior and taste. Otherwise, there can be no human dignity, And so as you go forth and assume the responsibility for society, remember please that without good princi- ples resting on eternal values there can be no basic satisfactions.

lnternotionol Fellowship International Fellowship is a non-profit organization which seeks to achieve understanding among all the peoples of the world, regardless of race, creed, or national origin. The Fe1lowship's aim is to uphold the true democratic way of life, and to protect the enjoyment of human liberty and the inherent dignity of the individual. Another purpose of the Fellowship is to achieve better international relationships through the ex- tension of knowledge and mutual understanding, and to enlighten public opinion regarding the problems of international conflicts. To implement the purposes of the above organization, a Student Exchange Program was conceived This program enables a student to visit another country and learn not only academically, but to have the experience of living with the native families. This provides the students not only with a formal ed- ucation, but also an understanding of that country's cultural and social life. Hector RiI'160l'1, frOrI1 Bogota, Colombia, is our only foreign ex- change student this year. He is the son of Senor and SeT1'ora Hernando Rincon and has two brothers and two sisters. Hector came to Poland with Stanley All and is now living with Stanley and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest All. Hector Stanley All, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest All of Poland, was our exchange student to Bogota, Colombia, last summer. He stayed with Senor and SeH'ora Bernardo Uribe de Concha for eleven weeks. Bart McClellan, another of our exchange students, ventured to Rafaela, Argentina, to stay with Dr. and Seffora Sosa for eleven weeks last summer. Bart and Stanley
