To the Senior Class of 1961 . . When the final diploma was issued, and the last graduate stepped off the platform at jacket Stadium on the evening of june 1, 1961, twelve years of work and study were rewarded. This class has many memories to recall from school years filled with study, fun, a.nd friendships. Here, the initial process of securing an education had its beginning. Dreams and plans were mingled so that these times will forever be touched with their gold. Here, the challenge of competition crystallized to become ambition. Within the short space of time between graduation and receiving this year- book, most of these graduates will already have taken decisive steps toward personal goals. Some will be getting ready for college, some will be drawing pay checks at new jobs and setting up new homes, while still others may be far away in military duty. Whatever the circumstances in years to come, classmates of this year may once more in spirit rejoin the group by the simple process of recalling the days when they truly believed: IF WE CAN'T DO IT, IT CAN'T BE DONE! THE SENIOR CLASS OE SIXTY-ONE
