In preparing the KKFLKCTOR OK 1950, we have compared Whiting High School to Mount Olympus, the ancient home of the gods. W . I I. S. students may not be gods, but they have enjoyed the privileges of the elect during the last fifty years. May future inhabitants of Mount Olympus have the wisdom of Minerva, the strength of Atlas, and the inspiration of frequent flights to the clouds to bring increased accomplishment and glory to our alma mater.

You are taking with you memories which we hope may be pleasant ones. Many of you have made commendable progress scholastically. You are facing a world, the- future of which appears uncertain. The world’s future has ever been an un- known quantity. Probably we are more keenly aware of that uncertainty in 1950. May the future afford you the opportunity to contribute your share toward making the world a better place for all and may you experience the satisfaction of true accomplishment. EMMETT L. RIORDAN Superintendent To the graduates of 1950 go my sincerest wishes for the faith and courage to meet successfully the challenge and demands of the future. The richest recompense for your past four years of earnest endeavor is not the diploma which marks the success of your undertaking, but the opportunities which are yours for a broader education: not the satisfaction which you feel in your achievement, but the dawning of greater ambitions and the establishment of a higher aim and loftier purpose. GEORGE O. BURMAN Principal We hope that, in leaving us. you will take with you the best things our school has to offer: that you have been brought to realize that democracy is a way of life: that the future of our country, of civilization itself, de- pends on your knowledge of social justice and your own appreciation of social values. This demands that you take a creative participation in all of those things which go to make a good life. Remember, a good life is impossible without good people. JOSEPH M.

Four years have passed swiftly and memories come flooding back that never will be forgotten by the graduating class of 1950. 1946- 47. It was September and the beginning of our high school days. We were growing up in a world just beginning to quiet down after almost five years of the horrors of war, the one dark cloud hovering over our happiness. Fresh- man days were really happy, filled with dances, football games, basketball games, and finally the very important “Freshman Frolic.” 1947- 48. Our Sophomore year was started and finished before we knew what was happen- ing. This was the year that a great many things changed. It was peace time again and a great deal was happening. Under the inspiring spon- sorship of Mr. George Burman, we successfully met and settled each problem. The sophomore dance, “Stardust” . was a wonderful night for all of us to remember. Top to bottom: Signing up! Any room in that old jalopy????? The Senior Dance!!! May I have an announcement card, please? Pago Eighteen Congratulations, Class of '50 WHITING LUMBER COAL CO. I listory 1948-49. We began thinking seriously about the future during our junior year. Even at the beginning of the year, we were all looking forward to sponsoring the Junior-Senior Prom. After much thought and hard work, it was decided that “Underwater Fantasy was to be the theme. 1949-50. We were all a little excited at the pros- pect of being seniors, for that was what we had been waiting for. When our schedules were being arrang- ed for the last time, with the thought of majors and minors and thirty-two credits foremost in our minds, we were reminded again that we knew that after this year high school days would only be memories. The days went quickly. At the end of the first semester the valedictorian and two salutatorians were announc- ed. The prom, “Enchanted Evening , was really an enchanted evening for everyone. Next came the long awaited Class Night and then Commencement. Marching to the strains of “Pomp and Circumstance was the thrill we had looked forward to tor twelve- years. With our diplomas still in our hands, we go forward from “yesterday’s dream” to “today’s reality.” Top to bottom: Prom date. Senior Shindig!!! Bums in bloom. Ready for the longest mile!!!!
