LARGEST CLASS
207 Seniors Receive Diplo
mas Friday Dr. Baxter
Gives Address Awards
Announced.
To think without confusion, clear
ly:
To love one's fellow men, sincere
iy;
To act from honest motives, pure
ly; To trust In Ood and Heaven, se
curely."
From these four sentences, which
be termed the "standard of achieve-
ment," Dr. Bruce R. Baxter, president
of Willamette university, developed
hla address to 307 graduating seniors
and a capacity auditorium at the
eoth annual commencement exercises
of Medford senior high school Friday
night. It was the largest graduating
clasa In Medford school history.
Dr. Baxter, making his second con
secutive commencement address to a
Medford high school graduating class,
took each one of those sentences and,
with humorous and serious snecdotes,
told the clasa and the huge audience
why he believed they represented the
standard by which students ahould
Judge their achievement during their
lifetime.
- He drew a parellel betweon the
sinking of the Battleship Maine,
which started the Spanish-American
war because Americans, at that time,
"didn't think without confusion,
clearly," and the recent bombing of
the Pansy, after which Americans
"though clearly enough to keep the
country from war with Japan.".
"It will be a tragedy for thts class
to graduate from high school and en
ter college without a full knowledge
and understanding of economics,"
Dr. Baxter said. "We must think
clearly, understand clearly the tax
ation problem, the gold standard and
what effects the many complex eco
nomic development will have upon
our Uvea."
Dr. Baxter warned the young men
and women to "love one's fellow men,
sincerely;" not to set up barriers to
either race or creed nor to persons
who might not have obtained the ex
cellent training they have. He em
phasized that every nationality has
at least one characteristic that oth
ers might do well by copying.
He advised the class to "never let
down nor to forget to act from hon
est motives, purely." He told a atory
of an aviator who, with the airliner's
landing gear ripped away, stayed with
hla ship and brought It to crash land
ing which, fortunately wasn't serious.
Instead of balling out in the air and
leaving a doaen passengers to their
certain death. Dr. Baxter stated that
the flier acted from honest motives,
and claimed that "balling out" was
- simpiy not done In those circles."
Addressing the class directly, the
college president stated that "Immor
alities were simply not known In cer
tain circles." and emphasised sgaln
"act from honest motives, purely."
"The man who la too busy to serve
his religion and hla community la
TOO biuiy," Dr. Baxter stated, In
bringing hla address to a close with
the last sentence, "to trust In Ood
snd Heaven, purely."
B. H. Hedrlck, city school superin
tendent. Introduced Dr. Baxter to
the class and audience.
Following the address, c. a. Smith,
high school principal, announced that
Muriel stocks had been named the
outstanding senior girl, and William
Holloway the outstanding senior boy.
Also, that Betty Southwlck had been
awarded a acholarshlp to Oregon
State college and Janet Thatcher one
to Southern Oregon Normal school.
Roger Henselman was Introduced
aa class valedictorian and Kvelyn
Shaffer aa saHitatorlan. Other awards

O. award; Irene Sharp, Zonta Inter
national club award: Jeanette Field,

eethool orchestra played "Ballet Egyp
tlen." and Ted Marshall played a
