FOREWORD We, the graduates of Quincy High School, Class of 1953, have created this, our senior yearbook, as a lasting reminder of our high school years and of the many friendships made among both the student body and the faculty. This yearbook should remind us also of the lessons we have learned, not only in the school but also in the home and in the church. As the familiar landmark of the adjacent Atlantic seaboard, the coastal light- house, leads distressed mariners safely to port through the tempest and the darkness of night, so should these lessons and memories lead us in life to the highest realization of the ideals of human existence. These are the critical years. We must now set forth into this world to undertake a great task—that of living—where our ability to succeed is limited only by our ability to fulfill not only the adventurous, the inspiring, but also the sundry, varied, and sometimes tedious tasks that we are called upon daily to perform. Thus, we reach the end of our three-year voyage; but before we dis- embark to proceed upon our separate courses, let us vow always to be friends in heart and join in the hope that our many remaining years will be spent in peace, prosperity, and common brotherhood with all mankind. 6

DEDICATION To go to war—in the name of Peace is a strange parallel. Yet hundreds of the graduates in this, the Class of '53, must be prepared to enter the Armed Forces, that peace may be established and preserved. Quincy High School has taught them well in the institutions of equality and freedom, for which they will fight. The staff of the Golden Rod wishes to dedicate this year- book to those of our class willing to dedicate much more, in the name of Peace.”
