YOUTH AT THE CROSSROADS We are finally at the Crossroads! For twelve long years we have been working toward this goal, graduation. The world we face differs from the one our fathers knew. Changing conditions .... bewildering situations in international affairs .... social, political, and economic crises .... miracles of science, and the new frontiers of atomic energy .... have created new problems of living. Behind us on our journey lie the bumps, jolts, detours, and obstacles we had to conquer. Years of study and preparation have equipped us, we hope, to follow the unknown road into the future. The decisions we make at this crucial time in our lives will determine not only the course of our destiny but the fate of the world. Our operation crossroads is at hand.

APPROACHING THE CROSSROADS Whatever our future plans, we found classes at Whiting High designed especially to prepare us for fulfilling them. Liberal arts and vocational courses gave us knowledge and practice for the role of adulthood. Future rocket designers, atom smashers, naturalists, and physicians delved into the mysteries of chemistry, mathematics, physics, and biology. Girls with homemaking ambitions had the privilege of learning skills in modern kitchens and sewing laboratories. Business tycoons and secretaries of tomorrow gained their training in bright, new classrooms equipped with modern machines. Boys who will turn the wheels of industry prepared themselves in the machine, print, and wood shops. All of us learned world understanding and citizenship from our courses in history, civics, and geography. We gained an appreciation for our fellowmen and a sense of beauty and idealism from great literature. We acquired skills of communication, both oral and written. We practiced safety and healthful living. The thrill of music was brought to our senses. Our opportunities to develop have been great. We should be prepared to meet any challenge on the road ahead.
