A Message To The Class Of 1960 From Its President Many believe that we who are to graduate this year are about to enter upon an era which will witness great changes. As part of this changing age it may be difficult for us to see these changes, just as it would be difficult for a man to see the whole forest ii' he stood in the midst of it. Cer- tainly, we are aware that in recent years we have observed an event so momentous in its signifi- cance as to rival the fantasy of mythical stories handed down from former times. The ancient Greeks were thankful to the my- thical character Prometheus, for he gave them their greatest gift, fire. Today we are hopeful that an even greater gift has been bestowed upon mankind. Atomic energy, which could easily de- stroy man, may however be the cause of man's forgetting war as a method of solving world prob- lems. It could force men everywhere to exchange their emphasis on war and destruction for an em- phasis on human understanding and this would surely lead to human progress. From the dim and uncertain times of early Greek mythology through the ages to the present day, periods of change have made possible one important change after another towards a modern civilization. Latin School men for the past 325 years have been helping change and develop not only our own country but also the entire world. It is now time for us, the Class of 1960, to take our place among the graduates of our Alma Mat- er. No doubt some of the members of our class will be recognized leaders in this period of change, and we may always look upon them with honor and pride. We hope we are on the brink of great advances in the techniques of solving world problems. Let this be the hope of all who are graduating this spring from high schools throughout the world and especially the hope of our own Class of 1960. ROBERT BRADLEY President , A 5 . ' 7 --ls. . -.

THE BOOBID 302 I sing of boobs and a hero, Aenas Sutton, a fugitive of destiny imainly he was lostl who led his allies from the ruins of 302, destroyed by the Greek chieftains, Ulysses Griffin, Ajax Nicker- son, and Agamemnon LaTorraca. Aeneas first consulted the oracle at 312 who, clad in a multicolored vest, listened not to Aeneas pleas. In despair, Aeneas and his companions went to sea and there incurred the wrath of the savage god, Cecil, who hurled the terrible thund- erbolt at the sailors, for he was partial to Ma- rines. But the sturdy ship of Aeneas weathered the storm and landed on the shores of 231 where dwelt the kind god of Math, who gave Aeneas and his companions five extra points for neatness. 9 CORNELIUS JOHN MURPHY 14 Bellaire Road, Roslindale B.

Then Aeneas and company sailed to the far corners of 234, where they visited the god, Mr. McCarthy fan Irish godl, who warned them thus, Try the sea Cwith my help, of courseJ. Then Aeneas sailed to another island, where his com- panions spread a banquet table. Suddenly, the terrible god of graph paper swooped down upon the feast with a pad of paper, and drove them from the island, for the bell had already rung. Nowhere else to go, Aeneas returned to his home, where these terrifying words from the inner shrine greeted him and his companions: Where have you boobs been ? J. J. Ford Gerald Locke William Griffin
