1963 Metuchen High School

dedication Miss Leis, Mrs. Switras, Mrs. Owsik It is the responsibility of the office staff to serve the faculty and the students. This they do with a willingness and an altruistic spirit which inspire us all. Although the office staff enjoys perhaps the least personal contact with the student, they assist him in every phase of his high school life. From the day you fill out your first schedule card to the day you receive your diploma, they are ever present in the background, guiding and aiding you. For these reasons, and in grateful appreciation of their never failing interest and understanding we respect­ fully dedicate this yearbook to Miss Mildred Leis, Mrs. Virginia Owsik, and Mrs. Vera Switras. The Editors I would like to take this opportunity to offer you my heartiest congratulations and sheerest wishes for the future. You are leaving many wonderful years behind, but stepping into a most exciting part of life. Though past years seem important now, it is the future that holds your place in life. Paraphrasing Louisa May Alcott, Let LIFE be your college; may you be graduated well and earn some honors. Eugene R. Biringer To The Class of '63: On this memorable occasion, I extend my sincerest congratulations and best wishes to the members of the graduating class. It is my fond­ est hope that the years spent at Metuchen High School will be valuable as you assume your roles in our complex society. You are now faced with the responsibility of insuring the continuation and preservation of our culture and way of life. This is not a simple task in our troubled world of today. Let industry, perseverance, moral forti­ tude, serious thought, and insight be the foun­ dations of your contributions as you leave your imprints in the sands of time. My faith is in you. Good luck and God bless you. Reno M. Zinzarella Reno M. Zinzarella 5 superintendent As you come to the close in this chapter of your life, it is my hope that during the time you have spent in the Metuchen Schools, whether it be a year or your entire academic career, you have developed a value system that will serve throughout your life. Your home and church in a very real way are the seed and root system from which the young tree has developed. The school is probably the greatest force in "bend­ ing the twig" and depending on how well we have done our job you will develop into the strong individ­ uals— intellectual — spiritually and civically — upon whom the future of this society depends. If it moves forward with resolution and dedication we will have done our job well. If it falters and declines we will have failed despite any academic accomplishment we might boast. I wish all of you a bright and successful future. From the rewarding association I have had with you during the last four years I am confident that you will do your share to carry our society on to even greater heights. - board of education 6 our faculty Mr. Paul Abrahamson Mrs. Emily Currie B.S.
