790 9 E, who are charged with the re- sponsibility for the schools of Ross Township and West View are proud of the accomplish- ments of the members of the Class of 1949. Among your number are students outstanding in academic achievement, in athletics, in music, in speech. Many have furnished the leadership for class and club activities. And then there are those who have made up the group of hard working, loyal, and intelligent followers. Your class is made up of students from ten different school districts. We regret that some of you, because of living at a distance, have not had the time to be as active in high school as you and we would have liked. We have learned to live and work together with our neighbors. No one district has had a monopoly on the honors. Mr. W. Robert Paynter Assoc. Supervising Principal Dr. R. S. Rice Supervising Principal It is our hope that as you people leave these halls to enter broader fields of learn- ing and living that you will continue to apply the lessons of good citizenship which you have learned here. You will come in contact with all sorts of people. You will find that others differ with you in religious faith, po- litical convictions, ambitions, likes and dislikes, color, creed, sense of values and every other way imaginable. To keep America great, all must learn to live and work together in peace and harmony. May the graduates of the Class of 1949 of West View High School strengthen this American tradition and add immensely to its possibilities. Our blessings go with you. R. S. Rice W. R. Paynter

Robcrf F. Jordan High School Principal 7 I ZAY l have your attention for the announcements, pleaiefn are Mr. Jordan's most familiar words. But reading' the an- nouncements is the least of his worries, for as principal he supervises the co-ordination of all learning and activities in the high school. When he assumed his duties as principal in 1945, he xvasn't new to West View students, as he had been one of our commercial teachers from 1938 until 1941. Scheduling classes, working out personnel problems, and supervising all activities are part of his job of keeping West View among the highest rated schools in western Pennsyl- vania. A student is expected to improve both socially and scholastically during his high school years, and Mr. Jordan, with his under- standing guidance, has helped us to do just this.
