TARGET Congratulations! You ' ve passed an important milestone in your life. What now? Many of you face a re- sponsibility to serve oxir country in the armed forces. Many of you . . . now, or in the futvire . . .will be called on to do an equally important task ... to produce the goods this country needs to maintain its military and economic stature in the world. In peace and war . . . steel is one of the nation ' s most important resources. Inland Steel has been at Indiana Harbor for 50 years. And ever since that day in 1901 when ground was first broken, Inland has steadily ex- panded and modernized this plant. Inland is an integrated steel com- pany. This means the entire cycle of steel production . . . from raw mate- rial to finished steel ... is carried on by Inland. Today there ' s no particular trick in finding just a job. The problem is, finding a future . . . locating an organization that welcomes young men and women . . . and offers them interesting, profitable and secure jobs . . . but more important, gives them a chance to get ahead! These are the things you want in a career. These are t he things Inland offers young men and women. Your target of oppor- tunity is the Inland Steel Company. -4iT |y rv IMLAND STEEL COMPANY INDIANA HARBOR, INDIANA Page Twenty-seven

' CLASS FLOWER — White Rose MEMORIES As we, the senior class of 1951, start down the aisle, the friendly, famiUar faces bring back memories we will never forget. How green and backward we were when we first came to R. H. S.! Remember how many times we went into the wrong rooms, called teachers by wrong names, and all but bowed to the seniors? We recall the dancing classes and noon dances, the plays, the all-day assemblies, the football, basketball, and baseball games, and everything that helped to make our stay here Roosevelt, mean so much to us. We remember the student elections, the Purple White dances, the showdown, and the teachers that pulled us through. These teachers suffered through those sometimes unbearable years, always ready and wilUng to devote their time to us. We ' ll never forget our good- natured teachers and our friendly principal, Mr. Simon. Then, our senior year. We came to school in September wilhngly for the first time in four years. And why? Because this was to be our last year. We attended games, and enjoyed assemblies. Everything we did was in anticipation of that final week in June. Then, we changed our tune. When we went to Evansville and had so much fun at that football game, with a one- sided score in favor of our alma-mcrter, we realized that this was all a part of us, a big part. Then, on a Saturday night in January, came the Winter Formal. As the last strains of music died out, one-half of our last year passed. Inevitably, came the second semester. This was the last lap of our journey. The Senior Class play, the Purple White Club dance, the Booster Committee Baseball dance. Sock Hop, and the Prom are all things of the past. But enough of the past. As we near the stage, we raise tearful eyes to the future. The one and only consolation is that, in later years, and only then, will we realize the true value of our days at Roosevelt. Page Twenty-eight
