1924 1964 Foreword Evidence of change is ever present in our society. What is new today will be old and obsolete tomorrow. Consider the change that a year brings to clothing stylesg that ten years bring to the automobileg that twenty years bring to air travel. With time, change comes to all things . . . to all, that is, except people. Their outward behavior may change in order to adapt to new aspects of the environment, but that within them which responds to change remains basically the same. This yearbook will depict the effect of change in our local environment, in the school, and in the community.
