Glorious Passage .Mary U. Qarroll The valiant spirit of Mary V. Carroll will never die. Her influence in training and guiding young people towards worthwhile pursuits and character development was immeasurable. Its impact was too great to express ade- quately in words. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, Miss Carroll earned her MA. degree at Michigan University, where she became a member of Pi Lambda Theta, the national honorary educational fraternity for women. In 1935 she began to serve as an adviser for the Annual, and in 1937 took over full responsibility for both the Annual and the Welcome. Under her wise and patient guidance, these two publications won many top awards in state-wide competition. From 1938 on she was active in the Pennsylvnia Scholastic Press Association serving as vice president for two years and president up to the time of her death. In March, 1951, she received a distinguished citation from Temple University for her outstanding leadership in school press work. Her nomina- tion came from her colleagues in the field of school journalism in recognition of her constant, brilliant service. When the light of a candle is snuffed out, the circle of light that it spreads is goneg but when Mary V. Carroll died, she left in the hearts of her students and co-workers a lasting light of ambition, constancy, patience, hard work, and success. To Mary V. Carroll the Class of 1952 reverently dedicates this Annual.
