At times their work may seem in vain, but our teachers do not give up easily, and they are determined in their efforts to make us bet- ter citizens and prepare us for the future. In return, we give our deep gratitude and our sincere thanks for the tireless hours they have devoted to us. South High's faculty can boast of two Omaha Education Association presidents. Language Arts Department Head Lloyd R. Richards, right, congratulates his successor to the O.E.A. pres- idency, Social Studies Department Head Dr. E. J. Kuncel, as the new president assumes the leadership of the professional teachers' organization in Omaha.

Assistant Principal Howard R. Sorensen, pictured at right, keeps a busy day with his duties as Director of Guidance, Athletics, Student Activities, and At- tendance. Mr. Sorensen has contributed much to the student body of South by editing their actions. 'tThe most destructive force in the world is not War or Disease or Fire. It is-Indifference. Indif- ference works havoc upon individuals and upon groups. It destroys our homes, our schools, and our churches. Our antidote for Indifference should be interest and intelligent action expressed with loyalty and gratitude. The importance of scholarship is not attaining it, but using it. Eff? an a Ami e rom mr.

L! L GIIJ the COLLIIJQ 0l'J. Guiding Southites toward a better understanding of their high school life are South's counselors. They have a big job to fulfill from the time we enter as freshmen until we leave as seniors. This job in- cludes such problems as staying in school, the right subjects to take, discipline, and participating in extra-curricular activities. The programs they pre- pare are to accommodate the students for whatever course seems most advisable after graduation. So, to these people who have done so much for all of us, we wish to say Thank You for helping make our years here at South enjoyable and memorable ones. A more profitable future lies ahead for our Class because of this most efficient staff. 1 , if swf
