JD the gm nf 7945 You entered Senior High School nine months after Pearl Harbor. During the period while you attended high school, our country mobilized eleven million into combat service and fifteen million into war production. To accomplish this with relatively little curtailment of your education is indeed remarkable. We are told that a new era will follow this war. Penicillin, plastics, jet propul- sion, gas turbines, assembly line housing and many other developments will add to our physical wellbeing. Whatever the shape oi things to come, it is my opinion that the individual's greatest contribution to the good life is character. WALLACE S. BREY, Principal If 13 l

Today, as never before, the world is seeking leadership. The nations are looking to the individual for a Lincoln, one who will stand forth as a rock on which to build their dream castle of a world without war, a world free from fear. Your school days have been days of preparation, days of foundation laying. You are now ready to go forth into this seeking world, to build upon the foundation you have received. Whether your building will remain a dream castle or will become a reality depends to a large extent upon how well you have built during your years in High School. We of the faculty, who have known and worked with you, must not yield to the secret desires we may have to shield you from entering this world, so in turmoil and sorrow as it is today. Knowing that we have now pointed the way and the future lies with you, we wish you God-speed. The task that is given to each man no other can do: So the work is awaiting, it has waited through ages for you. And now you appear, and the Hushed Ones are turning their gaze To see what you do with your chance in the chamber of days. -Markham HOBSON C. WAGNER, Superintendent I 12 l
