To the Class of 1962: The Class of 1962 should be especially proud to be the first graduating class from the newly occupied building which is the Burling- ton High School. Many years of planning, co-operation and construction went into this fine building which the town so generously voted to erect. As you can see from the length of time which you have been in school, many changes have been made in the type of education which you have received. We have at present some of the equipment which has been developed within the last twelve years. We do not yet have any automated equipment, but its acquisition is probably not too far in the future. Many businesses have begun to use these automated machines. As more of them install the equipment, certain types of jobs will be abolished. Naturally, these will be the jobs which are in the category of unskilled or semi- skilled. This is because these types of jobs do not require much education and training. These routine jobs can be programmed into an autom atic machine which will accomplish the task much more efficiently than a human can do. From this we can see that the more education a person has, the better opportunity he will have to remain gainfully employed. On behalf of the entire faculty, if offer to the Class of 1962 the best wishes for a successful and happy future in whatever goal each of you has selected. JAMES M. HORTON Principal To the Class of 1962: To you, the Class of 1962, I offer sincere congratulations in behalf of the School Committee and myself. As you take leave of us, I feel sure that you are well prepared to encounter life’s tasks and responsibilities. If you remember that a happy and fruitful life consists of a series of tasks done well, you need have no doubts about the future. May success crown your every effort and may we always point with pride to the fact that you are graduates of Bur- lington High School. JEROME J. LYNCH Superintendent of Schools
