GLENN Although the term teamwork is com- monly associated with sports, most of us realize that it is an essential for success in every walk of life. In retrospect, you will probably agree that your finest classes were those in which thc highest degree of team- work existed hctwcen teacher and pupil. At home, your best neighbors are the ones who are interested not only in their ow11 welfare and improvement of their own property, but also in the welfare of the neighborhood as a whole. You have seen teamwork in action on the athletic field. You have practiced teamwork in all your school activities. Apply the same degree of teamwork after you leave school and you will enhance your chances of success both personally and socially. 2 ,J VIEE PHI EIPALS JUHN J.

On the fundamental logic of that geometric axiom rests the theme of this year- book-the cooperation of the team can accomplish more than the individual efforts of its members operating separately. Touchdowns are not scored by the ball-carriers aloneg every man on the team who blocked, feinted, or otherwise did his part, helped to put the ball across. Your development into young men about to graduate from high school has been brought about by the combined efforts of a large team-yourselves, your parents, your schools, and your government which has enabled you to remain free and encour- aged you to seek education during years of World conflict. In the years ahead teamwork is of the utmost importance to you, to your country, and to the world. The forces which tend to break down cooperative efforts are strong. These groups which represent greed and lust for power can only be overcome by the cooperation and teamwork of the free peoples of the world. On your cooperation with each other and the other freedom loving countries, will depend much of your individual success and the future of our planet. Peace, prosperity, and good living will be obtained through the operation and cooperation men of the whole team, and your work on the team is essential. 3lJ,0f7 SPU SUR
