 ?t cwot Each year the question of a theme for our Rocket arises. In looking over former Rockets we find that our themes have been chosen more for their entertainment value than for educational purposes. This year our school has emphasized Safety Education to a higher degree than ever before. This year we find a new department in our Junior Republic—one to promote safety. Therefore, we have decided to choose this topic for our yearbook theme. Richard Montgomery High School has been esteemed throughout the county, state, and union because of its advancement in the field of safety. This year for the first time we have added the position of Secretary of Safety to our school cabinet. Motion pictures have been taken here because of the ideal fire escape system, efficient patrol, and other means of safeguarding the students of this school. And so, in order to add interest to the perusal of the following pages, we request that the readers bear in mind the above mentioned facts which will more clearly portray to you one of the ideals of this school and its year book. We hope that in the future Richard Montgomery will be known as The School for Safety as well as The School for Citizenship.

WE DEDICATE this book with sincere good wishes to Mrs. Fern D. Schneider. As the county supervisor of high schools since 1930, she has done much for which we are grateful. She has done her best to maintain the standards of the school both while teaching here at Richard Montgomery and while acting as supervisor. With a Master's Degree from George Washington, she is quite able to do her job capably. She has always had many friends around the school among both students and faculty. Always we see her as one who has a cheery word and a pleasant smile.
