CLASS OFFICERS Mary Rooney, Vice-Presiilent Kathrina Jones, 'Treasurer Iozcfa Buraczynska, President Joan Stillwell, Secretary PRESlDENT'S ADDRESS Parents, Friends, Faculty, and Alumni: E of the class of nineteen hundred fifty-four welcome you to our graduation exercises. We feel very happy that you are here to witness another step along the pathway of our lives. Through many years you have led us to this door whose threshold we shall pass tonight for the last time. We realize that it has been difficult for some to reach this goal, but by your assistance and through our own initiative, all have persevered successfully. With the guidance of parents, friends, faculty, and classmates, we have ad- justed our faltering steps so that we have benelitted from an education. Not only has knowledge been the resultg we have developed an ability to work with and to live with othersg we understand how to ap- praise the character of a fellow classmate and to accept or reject him-an act permissible in only a nation 6 such as ours. As we have grown in years, so, too, the journey along the pathway has continued. Now we all have completed one phase of our work and will open the door to more learningg these years are not the termi- nating ones in our lives. Many of us will advance to further educationg some will enter the armed forces or will become homemakers or tradesmen. As our ap- propriate motto states: Not finishedg just begun, we realize that our lives are continuing. We have reached another milestoneg the long, winding road to it has been wonderful! Our lives, united as one during these high school years will be remembered always. We hope that, when the final door is closing, happy memories will remain as they do today. So, now, our graduation exercises have begun. Welcome! -fozefa Antoinette Buraczyrzrka T H E C O LO N E I.
