It has been said that youth is but a falling star, plunging into space. A falling star, perhaps, but a moment well worth appreciating and remem- bering. Within the light of youth glow the accomplishments, innovations, and far- reaching ambitions of a generation. So often the importance of youth is underestimated until its years have fled. So often the temporary problems seem to overshadow the satisfactions of today. So often the young do not understand that the power to erase the shadows of doubt lies within them- selves. It is so very necessary in our age of clocks, tranquilizers, super-highways, and had memories to be conscious of the fact that we, the young people of our day and our country, hold the world's future within our very hands. To the spirit, the light, the irrepres- sible beauty of youth we of the 1966 Cat Tale staff pay tribute. To the future and elevation of youth we most hopefully dedicate this yearbook.

Robson Accepts Superintendencyis Challenge DR. ALLEN ROBSON, Superintendent. The responsibility for guiding Pon- ca City,s young people toward ma- turity lies with the school system-the school system itself is guided by the superintendent. Dr. Allen Robson has accepted this responsibility. .Formerly principal of West Junior High School, Dr. Robson ascended to this present position at the onset of the 1965-1966 school year. The challenges of new responsibility, the vitality of new associations, and the remarkable effect of fresh ideas upon the minds of men have all contributed to Dr. Robson's success in his first year as leader and spokesman for our educational community. Education in Ponca Cit Governed b Board In order to succeed in his life with others, man must possess a conscience. And, in a narrower sense, the citizens of a community must recognize their conscience-the indestructible con- science of representation. Elected representatives of Ponca Citians are chosen to set the standards and regulations of the community's schools. When a voter complains of the judgment and decisions of his officials, he is condemning the judg- ment and decisions of his fellow men. The school board is the conscience ig.. -the conscience of thoughtful con- sideration and contemplation, and, as each of us must take care to remember, the conscience of the educational sys- tem which is exerting an immeasurable influence on our lives.
