Some are thinking of college, others of a job and still others plan marriage. But what of those who have na ambition who just don't care and just don't know? You say you can't afford col lege? Oh, but you're wrong! Ever hear of a scholarship? But to win a scholarship you must be willind to work. Are you content to do only fairly well? Doesn't your conscience bother you when you use notes during a test, let your eyes wander, or use a last year student workbook? In study hall, do you do your work or do you wander Into the library and leaf aimlessly through a magazine? At commencement exercises, will you step forward proudly when your name is called, or will your steps be faltering and un steady? If you haven't wasted these four years, if you've done your tot, then step forward proudly to the new life ahead, lone Supt, Leaves To Be Supt For Sunset Valley Mr. Phillip Newitt of lone is leaving for a supt job in Sunset Valley next year.
