H -P 37t,ff7( C A creative spirit permeates all of our lives. Its expression is unique for each indi¬ vidual. Someone may want to paint a beautiful portrait, another to create a happy family, and someone else to do research in chemistiy. No matter how different these goals may be, each is generated by the same force — creativity. Peace of mind and the richness of our lives depend upon how well we fulfill these aspirations. In high school, we begin to realize the importance of developing this desire to create and of using it to make our lives more meaningful. At first, teachers merely try to cultivate in us certain abilities so that we will know fundamental skills. As our knowledge increases, an inner drive to create gradually intensifies. As we become more mature, our instructors stress the application of this drive to the building of our characters and to the discovery of a purpose for our lives. Our characters are always developing, taking on greater scope as our range of ex¬ perience broadens. From these experiences we begin to form a sense of values that enables us to focus our energies and abilities into constructive channels. An important goal for every person is to determine in which field he will best express himself. Thus it is fitting that the Yearbook of 1960 be devoted to the theme: a creative spirit.

DEDICATION Although you have been with us for only two years, you already mean something special to the Class of 1960. Since you first taught us as Juniors in United States History, you have played an important part in shaping our lives and in determining the kinds of people we will be. Through your con¬ scientious instruction, your careful consideration of our individual problems as well as our work, and your fund of knowledge both of history and of people, you have given us the basic understanding of our country and its people so necessary to every citizen. You have enabled us to go into the world with a greater understanding of our fellow man, his idiosyncracies, his prob¬ lems, his needs. With this knowledge we can use our creative spirit to build stronger friendships, to lead a more meaningful life, and to advance peace among men. It is in appreciation and gratitude for your invaluable assistance in making us better citizens and better human beings that we dedicate the Yearbook of the Class of 1960 to you, Mr. Norman Smith. 3
