DEDICATION Mr. Henry C. Luccock In our restless era, it is imperative that each of us understands and appreciates the wonderful heritage to which we, as citizens of the United States, fall heir. A man who is dedicated to the fulfillment of this need is Mr. Henry C. Luccock, to whom we are proud to dedicate this classbook. Mr. Luccock’s mastery of American history is obvious to every student enrolled in his course . His education is liberal and complete, and, with little regard to his own convenience, he offers his students every possible opportunity to enrich them¬ selves intellectually. This interest in his pupils’ development and their future costs him much of his precious extracurricular time. Thus, we, the Class of 1965, are proud to salute a man who has shown himself to be both a scholar and a gentleman, Mr. Henry C. Luccock. 7

DKDH ' ATION Miss Rita B. Antaya We, the Class of 1965, are proud to dedicate our classboolc to Miss Rita B, Antaya who, throughout our years at Bulkeley has proven to be more than a mere instructor, but rather a teacher, in the finest sense of the word. She has also shown herself to be a true friend, whose interest in her pupils goes beyond the classroom into the many trials of adolescent life. It is Miss Antaya who is, in the main, responsible for this classbook, the 1965 Maple Leaves. Her cooperation was typical of her continually helpful atti¬ tude, a facet to which all who know her can attest. Out of gratitude for her wise guidance, friendly interest, and fine example, we, the Class of 1965, take great pleasure in dedicating this classbook to Miss Rita B. Antaya. :: 6

Principal’s Message One down! Three to go! One quarter of your life is over; three quarters remain. What will these final quarters be like? Will they be personally satisfactory? Will they be productive? Will you contribute some¬ thing to society so that, in the words of the poet, “The world is better off for your having passed through?” Only you can answer these questions. Only you can put foundations under your dreams by positive actions and accomplishments. During these past twelve years, we, as educators, have striven tirelessly to develop within you the skills and attitudes which should help you in your quest for life’s fulfillment. These have been pleasant years—enjoyable to us and, we hope, fruitful to you. These years that constitute the first quarter of your life have provided the building blocks for the succeeding three. You will face numerous challenges, difficult to solve. The changing pattern and tempo of life will intensify your problem. There will be times when the age-old conflict between right and wrong, between means and ends, will confuse you;—yet, I am certain that each member of the Class of ’65, confidently buttressed with his Bulkeley education and with God’s help, will meet all challenges successfully and, during the fourth quarter, will reflect back on a life that was truly productive and contributive.
