We have lost a true friend. Lost? Yes, but only in the physical sense of the word, because the things that Darby did, and what he stood for, cannot be stricken out or forgotten merely by the passing of the man. Mr. Mannix will always remain in the memories of those who knew him for his character was of such that it will leave its imprint in our school long after this book has ceased to exist.

Although Demmy has officially retired, We still frequently see him in the halls talking to the students and promoting good-will as has always been his custom. Mr. Dimorier will be sadly missed in Academy, but nevertheless, We shall still see him occassionally because he continues to retain his enthusiastic interest in our choral groups, especially the Choir. With the wish of his continued health and happiness, we co-dedicate this issue of the Academe to Mr. Dimorier.
