PREFACE A school is, among other things, a mirror which clearly reflects the community about it, which reflects realizations of the amazing similarities between community and school, realizations of the miniature community exemplified by the school. There is the material, the comparisons to be drawn between the government, services, activities, and opportunities within each. And there are the unique possessions of each — the annual traditions and everyday sounds of people at work and children at play in the small towns, the legacy of customs and routine of curriculum within the school. Each is a school of the spirit; in each dwells the permanent among the transience of Life. Both, school and community, are undeniably interrelated, and it is with this relationship that the 1964 HI- LIFE deals, attempting, through the concrete, to convey the abstracts arising from the merger be- tween these very integral parts of our lives. The roads which lead to the community, the crowded halls of the school — these are but two pictorial representations of the world about us. Tbis world, revolving about community and school, transmits to us the treasure of education; this world supplements that treasure through experience, through ideals instilled, through opportunities offered for self-expression, for growth and maturity. Yet, there is so much left unsaid by the copy — implications which transcend the structures they represent, and become synonymous with the people and lives they comprise. Extensive preparation has gone into the production of this yearbook. We extend our apprecia- tion to all those whose cooperation has enchanced our efforts, yet there are those who must be granted special recognition: the advisor, Mr. Louis Freeman; the co-advisors, Mr. Arthur James and Mr. Robert Cassidy; Mr. Alton Taube of Delma Studios, and Mr. Emil Schmidt, the representative of our publishers. The finished product now rests with you, the individual, the subject of the book, and awaits your enjoyment . . . 4
