DEDICATION To our helpful and understanding teacher who has rendered every service possible to uphold the spirit of Ridgeway High School; to one who has worked without ceasing for our educa- tional improvement; to one who encouraged us and guided us in all our undertakings; we, the Senior Class of I960, proudly dedicate this last edition of The Cardinal to - - - Mr. L. 1. Thompson SUPERINTENDENT CECIL W. BOWERS Superintendent's Message To The Senior Class of 1960 It has been a real pleasure to have you in high school these past years. Many of you have been valuable students to your class and school, and we all feel justly proud of these contributions. It is .with mixed emotions that I write this message to you, I am sad because I am going to miss everyone of you, and I am glad because I feel that you are capable of going out into the world and doing a creditable job in whatever you undertake, I would like for each of you to know I am counting on you to do your very best at all times. I wish for you a happy and prosperous life. PRINCIPAL LAWRENCE I. THOMPSON Principal’s Message To The Senior Class of 1960 Best wishes for continued success. Let me recommend the fol- lowing to you as a desirable way of life: ”1 am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to what light I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and part with him when he goes wrong. - -Abraham Lincoln. : i 5'; i ; j: r 0?accdty , .. Picture Not Available MRS. FRANCES ARNDT MRS. RUTH COLEMAN MRS.
