Happy New Year!
The new year of 1976 has a ring of optimism, both here in
Nyssa and in the nation as a whole. It will also have a lot of
election year rhetoric as we face the primary elections in the
spring, and the presidential election in November.
It is also the Bicentennial Year as this nation faces its 200th
year and already we are seeing advance preparations for this
celebration. Along with the commercialism comes the many
opportunities to renew our knowledge and understanding of
the history of this nation.
We face an exciting year in Nyssa as we gradually complete
and move into our new school buildings. The new high school
is rapidly taking shape, and by next fall high school students
will move into their new quarters, and the junior high
students will again have a home of their own.
Later in the year the new gymnasium will be opened,
hopefully before the wrestling and basketball seasons start.
Phase III of the building program will be underway early in
the year, and by the end of 1976. we should see this project
almost completed.
Occupying these new school buildings will be a tremendous
challenge to the student body and faculty of each of the
schools. How well they start out in these new facilities, which
will be the best in this area, will set the pattern for future
years.
Nationally, the future looks brighter. Babson and other
economists all predict that 1976 will see the economy continue
upward. Locally, we should have another good year in
agriculture and business.
And so American enters the homestretch toward its 2OOth
birthday. We ended the year with no American soldier in
combat and a domestic economy that shows signs of its
former strength. Every thoughtful citizen should have no
difficulty proving to himself that, with all the challenges
facing the United State, there is no better place on earth to
live.
