MR. L. S. WILLIAMS A. B. and M. A. Bucknell University University of Pittsburgh Mr. Williams is so much like everyone else, yet so different. He is companionable, friendly, sympa- thetic, helpful and understanding: yet reserved, dis- tinguished and outstanding. His competence and sin- cere interest in us, and our problems, has won our deepest admiration. As we, the Senior class, are about to lose his inspiring influence and considerate advice, we sincerely say that we appreciate all his I efforts and work. - A successful modern school should improve the pupils mentally, physically, and morally. The minds of the boys and girls of school age should be trained to discriminate be- tween desirable .and undesirable knowledge as well as how and where to find those facts which are beneficial in living a helpful and happy life. A keen and alert mind usually demands the support of a healthy body. The latter should be developed by careful observance of proper regulations in eating, sleeping, cleanli- ness, and exercise. Such regulations which lead to temperance in all habits of living, should be taught not only in health and physi- cal education classes, but also in each and every class and organized club which is spon- sored by the school. A keen mind and a healthy body must be molded with a strong determination to proper- ly use one's talents and accumulated knowl- edge. This combination makes the student's character and determines his or her value to the world. Each school director, supervisor, and teach- er should continually strive to guide our youth toward the development of such an ideal character. The members of the graduating class of 1945 have spent nearly their entire high school career under conditions imposed by World War II. This has, to some extent, diminished their educational opportunities and has shroud- ed their environment with uncertainty. How- ever, they have faced these obstacles with un- bowed heads and are preparing to make the best of what the future holds for them. America has been made greaf by Wise, stout-hearted people. These young men and women are Americans. MR. L. S. WILLIAMS Supervising Principal Nine
