It gives me a great deal of pleasure to extend my congratulations to the class of 1959 of the Woodrow Wilson Senior High School. Today the world is yours, for the point of view of youth is all conquering and boundless. Tomorrow may slow you up a bit, but do not let it dull your enthusiasm for living. For if you don't, today and tomorrow will be just a couple of days in a life that can be full of purpose and happiness. DR. CREIGHTON F. MAGOUN Superintendent of Schools In 1956, you entered this building for the remain- ing three years of your high school education. You were privileged to have the facilities of a brand new building — suites of rooms for your aca- demic classes, several well equipped industrial arts areas, a new power mechanics course as well as a new vocational agriculture department, a spacious gymnasium, a modern kitchen and an attractive cafe- teria and last but by no means least, an able teaching staff. Now that you have completed these three years, I would ask that you view in retrospect the oppor- tunity which you had and answer these questions: Does the community which invested its money and hopes in me feel that it has realized a reasonable return on its investment? Did I, in return, invest the maximum of myself? Were I given the opportunity to repeat these three years, would 1 do differently? What advice shall I give to future students? Will I, as an adult, be willing to make a similar investment in educational opportunity for young people? To each of you our best for the future. CHAUNCEY J. COPELAND, Principal Woodrow Wilson Senior High School
