MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL To the Class of 1954: You have come to the aid of your high school course. Some can look back with satisfact- ion and pride for they know that one job has been well done. Others would rather forget their days in school, for it reveals wasted time and opportunity, Take courage: you are entering upon days of great progress and advancement. To those who lay hold on the future, she will grant a great reward. But one thing she asks, and that is toil and persistence in the future. In words of Henry Van Dyke: This is the gospel of labour, ring it, ye bells of the kirkl The Lord of Love came down from above, to live with the men who workg This the rose that He planted, here in the thorn-curst soil: Heaven is blest with perfect rest, but the blessing of Earth is toil. Congratulations to the staff and the class for their work in publishing this excellent year- book. Good Luck and God's Speed to all of you. Ray A. Kurtz Supervising Principal The Board of Education ?

He is a graduate of Lebanon Valley. Assistant basketball coach, Mr. Emig, on the left, is also our soccer and baseball coach. This is Coach Emig's first year at S. L. He is a graduate of Penn State Uni- versity. SEASON'S SUMMARY The South Lebanon clribblers had a successful season with 6 wins and 6 losses in league competition. At the end of the season we had to have playoff with Heidelberg for the Class C Championship, South Lebanon came out on top with a very impressive victory. This entitled us to go into the Class C elimination playoffs. We didn't go very far for in our first game with Robesonia we lost. But only after a very hard-fought game. The final score was 57-56, favor Robesonia. We would like to congratulate the seniors who have played their last game. They are Donald Achenbach, Jim Wise, Fred Shertzer, Ted Hains, and Jim Steffy.
