FUREWURD For every member of the Class of '48, Commencement is a moment of both prospect and retrospect. It is a time when we must consider our responsibility in the years ahead, but it also furnishes an appropriate occasion for reviewing our life at Allen- dale. Here, we have labored with her curriculum, participated in her athletics, shared in her activities, enjoyed a full measure of fun, and formed ties of friendship which we will always cherish. Now, however, as these living experiences 'become only fond memories, it is our duty to employ the preparation we have gained at Allendale in useful, intelligent citizenship in a world sobered by the awesome possibility of an atomic holocaust. The conclusion of this school year not only marks the end of a period in the life of each member of the Senior Class, but in a sense, it also terminates an era in the history of Allendale. Since 1929, the School has known the influence of a man who, more than anyone else, has been the spearhead of Allendale's progress in academic standing. He is, of course, our Headmaster. Like the Class of '48, this year, he is departing from the School both he and we have known and loved so well. It is the purpose of this yearbook to present an indelible record of the last year of Allen- dale under his inspiring influence and able guidance. With this in mind, we, the members of the Senior Class, publish the seventh edition of the Allendale yearbook, the 1948 CLAVUS.

Qlalzmfzm In order to pay the highest tribute and accord the greatest recognition within our power, we, the members of the Allendale Senior Class of 1948, have elected to dedicate the CLAVUS to the man, who above all others, is the personification of Allendale -Hollis Scofield. Almost from the founding of the School, he has been quietly building for the general welfare of the students and of Allendale. He has been a stimulating teacher, a vigorous coach, and for the last half decade, a just and capable adminis- trator. Above all, he has always offered the fullest measure of helpfulness to any boy whom he felt was honestly trying to do his best. Thus, in appreciation of his leadership, example, and achievement, the .Senior Class dedicates the 1948 CLAVUS to Mr. Hollis Scofield, a man who will always have our undying friendship and loyalty. 5
