Small coupe turns of Bay State Road onto Bach St. Pulls up to old green fence with RESERVED FOR DOCTORS printed boldly ln white on it. Driver seems to hesitate for a rnornent, then chuckles, parhs, and gets out. . . . . Well, they didn't catch me for four years . . . I guess I can give it one more try . . . let's see . . . I have just about an hour before I meet the guys . . . it'll really be a thrill seeing Ed receive his honorary degree . . . and to think how we used to razz him about all those extra hours he put in at the lab . . . I can't wait to catch the expression on his face when he sees that his old gang has come back to help him celebrate . . . and our class reunion will be a very small part of the University's Centennial celebration this year 09695 . . . Walks up Ray State Road and slowly comes to a halt in front of Shelton Hall. . . . Shelton still looks a little bit undressed without that canopy . . . I can remember the drst night after it had been taken oil . . . I drove right by! . . . Liz and I still laugh when we think of those explanations she used to offer when our watches didn't jibe with the dormitory clock . . . about the only time she got away with it was the night of our Junior Prom when we were stranded in the blizzard . . . it's really too bad that Liz had to stay home with the kids . . . SI16,S just dying to see that new girls' dormitory . . . It should be right up the street here . . . take away 16 years and come to think of it, 16 pounds, and this might just as well be my freshman year . . . all the fraternity flags were flying that first day of school . . . somehow they still add spirit to old Bay State Road . . . never mind OLD Bay State Road! . . . this is the new Bay State Road . . .

Partners ln Progress. Stops for a moment at Daniel L. Marsh Chapel and continues up Corn- monwealth. . . . I'll always be sorry that I didn't get to more of the services here . . . somehow during college you really learn what it is to be sorry, or to be happy about what happens to you . . . maybe this is growing up combined with being in the right at- mosphere . . . I have a feeling that my life might have been quite different if I hadn't come to B.U .... it's really quite a little world in itself-yet big in so many ways . . . so many different people . . . with so many different ideas . . . yes, a world in itself, which certainly wouldn't have been the same without Boston . . . the relation between the city and the University seemed like an unwritten partnership . . . the city helped to amuse as well as educate us . . . in fact, I never seemed to have enough time for all that I wanted to do . . . and the University helped to train and educate leaders not only for Beantown but for many more cities and towns where we all have since gone to live . . . no, this is one partnership that I'm sure will never be dissolved . . . it works too well . . .
