MR. THOMAS C. DARBY We are deeply appreciative of the part played by the Mont- gomery County Board of Education in making possible our progressive school system. The president of the Board, Mr. Thomas C. Darby, has given unsparingly of his time in meeting educational problems. A gentleman of keen judgment and of sympathetic under- standing, he has won the love and admiration of all who know him. To him we dedicate the 1937 ROCKET.

FOREWORD We are happy to present this, the eleventh volume of the ROCKET. Since the publication of our first yearbook many changes have occurred in our school. New equipment, new courses, new class rooms have been added to keep pace with changing conditions. We are proud of the progress achieved by Richard Montgomery High School and we should like to think that the ROCKET S growth has been commensurate with that of the school. Each year sees changes and improvements crowding in. This year marks an important innovation—our Journalism class is begun and courageously takes its initial venture in the field of yearbook publication. This is in accordance with the intensely practical nature of the courses and activities offered us here. If education may be thought of as growth,” then Richard Mont- gomery High School truly offers education in the best sense of the word—education conceived of as all-round development of body, mind and spirit, building not alone for the present, but for the future. In line with this thought, we give you here a record of 1936- 37, picturing for you the highlights of the year as we see them.

“Our American democracy of tomorrow depends upon our boys and girls of today. You are now creating the patterns for your manhood and womanhood. If these patterns are built well there will be little question about the high standards of citizenship and government you will demand and obtain for your country, your state, and your community. It will be necessary for you to obtain these high standards in your gov- ernment if our nation is to survive as a democracy.” Principal, L. FLETCHER SCHOTT
