we To The Graduates The publication of this yearbook will mark the culmination of your efforts — curricular and extra- curricular — over a period of years. That you have been successful in both areas of instruction is a tribute to your industry and ability of your teachers. It is my contention that you have been provided with a sound basic education and a well proportioned sense of values that will serve you throughout your lives. I feel that you have profited by your tenure in Weehawken High School and that the school, in turn, has enjoyed the benefit of your successful con- tributions.

These hands, the foundation upon which our statue evolves, symbolize the controlling and directing influences in our lives; those of our parents, our civil and religious leaders, and our school faculty. Our faculty is essential to the gradual completion of the sculpture, in that it provides the fundamental tools which mold enduring impressions upon our sculpture. They encourage self-expression, assert our heritage, extend culture, stimulate curiosity, evolve logical reason- ing, further professional skills, develop creativity, furnish sound advice and lead the way to maturity. These tools and the ways in which they are applied will largely determine the quality and merit of the finished product.
