Valedictory Dr. Johnson, Dr. Brill, Mr. Turechek, Parents, Friends and Fellow Students: Tonight, we, the Class of 1959, bid farewell to the counselors, teachers, and others on the staff who have made our stay at CSDR both pleasant and profitable. It is difficult to find words to adequately express our feelings and our appreciation to these good friends and helpers. They shall no longer be available to us to guide us when we may feel the need of assistance. We are now on our own, and l am sure that each of us will remember and apply the knowledge and experience gained from them. To these folks, we say Thanks a mil- lion. To the next graduating class, we, too, say farewell with the knowledge that they very soon will follow in our footsteps To them we also say, Use each precious moment for the greatest good. Let not the minutes slip away in uselessness. To our parents we extend a heartfelt Thank you for seeing us through this important period of our lives and for sending us to CSDR. The paths we will follow are yet quite dim and uncharted. Some of us hope to go to college. The rest of us hope to find employment and take our places in society aiming at the conquering of space. But, whatever paths we may follow, we shall endeavor to reflect honor upon our Alma Mater. ANNE WALLIS Page Fifty Seven
