Qffexe mm szzyfmvflsfe am scvfaaf Administrator-in-chief with a hearty laugh Members of the Class of l9581 Your year of opportunity is at hand. Recent societal changes during the age of the satellite have renewed the emphasis upon the need for a broad, general education. You must be well informed on the fundamentals, capable to think and able to make quick decisions. We are experiencing a technological revolu- tion which we created by learning activities. Mental arithmetic served our needs in solving calculotory processes more than a generation ago. Today we need not only mathematicians and scientists but also people to operate elec- tronic computers in small businesses and in- dustries, as well as giant univacs designed to solve the complex problems of large seg- ments of our population. As you progress in adjustment to living in this new age, do not forget that God rules the Universe and expects you to be an honest, co- operative, thinking, social, spiritual being working for a peaceful world, or else science and all our technical know how will destroy our world. Education today is priceless. Further your education at all costs if you wish to enjoy the fruits of scientific achievement and live at peace with yourself. Congratulations and best wishes. William C. Kutz William C. Kutz, jointure supervising principal uw A firm, mild-monnered second-in-command Dear Graduates: Amid the hustle and bustle of your com- mencement activities you are witnessing the beginnings of a dream about to became a reality. The foundations are being laid for the construction and alterations of the new Wilson Junior-Senior High School. While you did not have the advantages which will be those of the students who will enter the new school, you did receive the best education possible in over- crowded quarters. Through perseverance you have achieved success despite limited facilities and space. You also have the satisfaction of knowing that you have been graduated from a growing high school and will rejoice with us because future classes can receive the benefits of an expanded program designed to meet the needs of the Space Age. l am confident that you will direct your tal- ents and energies toward the betterment of all phases of living which will help to strength- en our position as a leader among nations. lt is a privilege to extend an invitation to re- turn to Wilson often to take part in alumni as well as other activities, thus retaining an active interest in your Alma Mater with its worth- while activities. l extend my sincere congratulations to you for a happy, prosperous future.

Although these men can often be heard chastising students, they are very willing to help anyone. These men also have an extremely keen sense of humor. They are certainly needed to keep our school running smoothly. H way Wblgflll rzfkfaf cwqafzlhrufim I overslept.
