CHARLES FREDERICK HAMILTON, A.B. Headmaster Mr. Hamilton was graduated from Williams in 1933. He came to Belmont Hill in 1942 and this year com- pletes his twenty-iirst year of distinguished leadership of the school. TO THE CLASS OF 1963: ' Inscribed on the gate to West College, an historic building at my alma mater, are the following words: Climb high, climb far: Your aim the sky, your goal the star. Few are the Williams students who fail to appreciate this injunction before they graduate, and many never forget it. It has a particular cogency in this age of space exploration, but the intent of the message is something more than this. The climbing we are encouraged to do is a soaring of the spirit, the realization of ideals and purposes of high moral value. And so to you, boys, I would repeat these words as you go on to new adventures in learning. May you too strive to climb high and far, and may you all attain goals that are worth attaining 'iwith beauty and with wonder lit? Charles F. Hamilton, Headmaster 8

E Mtrg. 5 151. 1i wF We are witnessing today an increasing demand for teachers at all levels of American education and the supply of them is by no means equal to our needs. How fortunate then are the boys of this School to have a faculty like Belmont Hill's! These are men who do more than teach subjects, though they do this very well, as most graduates will attest. Their main concern is to contribute to the growth of men. This means their physical, moral, and emotional development as well as the intellectual. Nor have they often been lured away to other pastures. Belmont Hill is their school and they are its real strength. CHARLES F. HAMILTON FACLI LTY
