    Congratulations and Best Wishes SMITHS BLUFF REFINERY 40th Anniversary Year I Foreword Dear Students, The old glass dome lamp was a famil­ iar sight at the time that the first PILOT was published. Many couples often strolled in a park and hesitated underneath the comfort of its glow. Just as the lamp sym­ bolizes a bygone era, the staff and I have labored to produce a yearbook which re­ flects the unprecedented events of the 1963- 1964 school year. Through the tragic and exhilarating, you, the students of Nederland High School, have alternately been saddened and thrilled. For many of you eniors, this is the culmination of your formal education; may your school years serve you well in your chosen career. For those who continue into college, you have a strong foundation upon which to base your future. To the under­ classmen, a word from one who has already passed this way: Do not allow yourself to become entangled by the petty, for these are surely the most productive and valuable years of your lives. In closing, we challenge each of you to excel through vision, enlightenment, and understanding. As you reminisce through the pages of this 30th Anniversary Issue of the PILOT, may you recognize the signifi­ cance of a most wonderful year. If you stu­ dents are pleased by this record of your achievements and disappointments, then our endeavors shall be rewarded. With best hopes for each of you, R. L. Diaz, Jr. Editor 1964 PILOT 3 66 Let the worJ go forth froirn. this tiirn.e amudl place o o o th.<lfi:t the torch has lbeen JJ_J>asseJ to a new generati?n of A:nrn.erricanso 99 4 .
