To the June Class of 1937 You are soon to graduate from South Hills High School, more than tour hundred of you. You are to graduate in the twentieth year of the existence of South Hills High School. South HillsNHigh School began its career April 9, 1917: this date is only three days later than April B, 1917 when President Wilson declared war upon Germany in the great struggle which was known as the World War. The growth and development of your high school has been continuous during all that time. The pupil enrollment has increased more than ten-fold. During these twenty years more than six thousand boys and girls of the South Hills community have graduated from South Hills High School. It would be interesting today to know where they are located. I have to md graduates of our high school far distant irom Pittsburgh. Many of them are occupying positions of influence and responsibility in Pittsburgh and elsewhere. Many things have occurred in these twenty years. Perhaps one of the most out- standing developments has been the beginning and improvement of radio which has made our World much smaller than it would have been without it. lt is interesting to con- template that all through time these air waves had existed but it required special skill to handle them and make them serve our greatest needs. There are those who say in this modern day that there is no opportunity for Amer, ican youth. It is true. perhaps, in a geographical sense there are no frontiers to be explored, but in the fields of science. medicine. and invention. untold possibilities await those who are willing to pay the price. In medicine some one. some day, will find the cure for cancer. that dread disease that claims so many victims yearly. ln science and invention, we are only beginning to touch the surface in the great principle of air con- ditioning and the manufacture of complete but inexpensive homes. In the field of trans- portation much remains to be accomplished in the construction of highways that will reduce accidents. Who will hazard a guess as to what the next twenty years will bring in the matter of transportation by means of highways? ln government and economics there is a great need of trained minds that can see clearly and act wisely in those matters that affect the lives oi mankind. Surely this field ot human endeavor oiiers a challenge to our best thinking. It is interesting to note that already men of affairs have announced that the need ol trained workers with keen educational appreciation is greater than has been known for many years. May I urge you to continue your educational careers, believing that they who are willing to make the eiiort will find a place in American lite. On this, our anniversary occasion, I extend to you and to all the pupils of South Hills High School my best wishes. Yours very truly, H. E. VVINNER, Principal. June 9. 1937 iii i
