Li e in Szmfazm Towmbgb just as life at Swatara Township High School is only a fragment of life in general, so this yearbook is only a fragment of life at Swatara. VVe know that our book can show our yearis activities only partially anti im- perfectly, we also know that what we learn in high school about life is not the whole picture. Swatara Township, itself, is just a small piece of America, but in many ways it is typical of the whole Country. The residents of Swatara may live in close-built communities or solitary farms: they work at all kinds of jobs, they are people with all sorts of backgrounds and ambitions. Yet they are all Americans living and working harmoniously in a tiny segment of the Unitecl States. The 1954 Swozttei' is our attempt to holtl up to view, not only life at STHS, but also the broader aspects of living in Swatara Township. Dedication The 195-I Szmttei' is cletlicatetl to the people of Sxvatara Vliownship -the people who build the homes, roacls, churches and schools, who raise crops in Swatarais fertile soil, who serve the community through their business establishments: who labor in Swatarais industries: who fish her streams, roam her hills, and call Swatara Township their home.
