Vital to the growth of every school is the Board of W .. Trustees, a group of individuals whose faith, confi- dence and vision serve as foundation stones for the fu- ture. Enthusiasm for and interest in YYinchendon - have inspired them to make plans for the develop- ment of a campus which will rank with the finest in the country. Proof of this confidence is seen in the fact that meetings held twice during the year were devoted almost exclusively to plans for the future building of dormitories and new fields, both immediate needs. l4

MR. 8: MRS. MARR stand before Ingleside with the newest members of the Winchendon family-Trib and Birt. The letters that I receive from our recent alumni-young men who are in college--clearly indicate how important the learning process is--a process which concerns itself not so much with books as it does with person. In your sophistication, you will tend to minimize or perhaps disregard the Hwarning signals sent out by means of these letters because he isn't talking about mef, These letters again are not merely polite replies to those of the headmaster-they are for the most part L'pearls which are passed on to you because of their genuine interest in and concern for every boy who comes out of the Winchendon School. Who you are and what use you make of your talentsg how much you have learned', as a person growing up and matur- ingg how great a part common sense plays in your thinkingg how much these characteristics influence your college experi- ence will determine pretty much the degree of success you will enjoy in it. Because of your academic achievement here and perhaps elsewhere, you are ready for the next step more demanding and more challenging than heretofore-demanding because of your known ability to handle greater quantities of material-chal- lenging because of the right of the Nteacheru to expect finer quality-challenging again because you are Hon your own. Thus you, as the person you have become and are, will be the one to plot the course which will make you. ??f6sSFljwe
