Mortimer Mr. Fenner, Parents, Teachers and Friends, With this assembly hall are associated some of our fondest memories of Classical High School. Here on a September morning in 1952, we were initiated into the Classical world. The surroundings were not elegant, but the warmth of friendly interest was apparent even then. On the days that followed, we met here often for pleasant conversations as we went from class to class, we gathered for special assemblies, we advertised our talents, we conducted our class business. Now as we assemble here for the final time, the surroundings are unchanged. The walls remain dusky and the lighting is still dim. Our feelings, however, are far deeper now, for we have become a part of a tradition which few public schools can match. The Classical spirit is born of high standards of scholarship, of mutual cooperation between teachers and students, and of a feeling of warm friendliness. We have worked hard here, but the experience has been rewarding. We shall long remember the friendly companionship of these days, and shall join the graduates who constantly revisit the school attesting that the roots of this spirit are deep ones. That we have had this experience, we owe a debt of deep gratitude to our friends, who have made our days here happy ones, to our teachers, who have taught us to admire high standards and worthy ideals, and to our parents, who have shared our joys and pains, ever guiding us by their love. It is fitting that our dearest ones should be with us on Class Day. Our debt is great, and our gratitude is deep. ltilllswroliw CLASS or misss by Maureen A. Harney Soon our rockets will hurl through the milky way and past the Big Dipper at Lands heading towards a new world. It has been a long time since we first left the planets of Tatnuck and Newton Square and the asteroids of Grafton Hill and Providence Hill to meet at the newly-discovered constellation, CLASSICAL Now after four light years of struggling for survival, Cwell it certainly seemed as though we traveled five trillion, eighteen hundred and sixty-six billion, six hundred and ninety-six million milesj we are departing, searching for frontiers of space. Before we blast off, let us quickly re-read the log of these four eventful years of preparation for this journey. Our freshman year, 1952, we discovered that since our arrival, the faculty had insisted that no more freshmen be admitted. To our horror, Mr. Fenner agreed. When our homerooms were buzzing one Friday afternoon, we investigated the matter and discov- ered the ARGUS. Parker Marden began his never-late record, since he awoke with the chickens every morning as most farmers do. Attending our first assembly, rally, variety show, game, and club meetings, being the last class to read the Daly gossip column in the ARGUS, getting our first report cards and discovering that we were not so brilliant as we had thought we were at Sever-except for Richie and Rob of course- these and other memorable events filled our freshman year. And then there were those lucky girls, Joyce Small and Patti Turnan, who finished their freshman year by attending the Senior Prom. Suddenly our sophomore year was upon us, the year we had to make a great decision: whether to take five subjects or to get a doctor's certificate. When we could not find any freshman to confuse, we picked on the foreign sophomores from junior high like Mel Porter, joan Jakstis, Karen Spets, Barbara johnson, Bob Kandall, Estelle Connors, Chet Sonta, Norton Remmer, Julienne Mycko, Njiggerl' johnson, Priscilla Arell, and joe Aiksnoias. joe Kenary, George Breen, and Ray Hammerstrom became varsity hoop stars. A certain book store surprizingly admitted that Classical Latin students had put a book called The Trot on the best-seller list. Among the many celebrities in our class was Mary Weinhold, whose picture appeared in the Gazette, modeling Classical's streamlined gym suit. The paper also caught Barbara Santoian and Carol Sampson trying to look intelligent among the animals on one of Mr. Weed's renowned biology field trips. During the summer of our sophomore year, John Kokernak and Ronnie Stidsen, disguised as Boy Scouts, attended the Third National Jamboree in California. When our unior year began, we realized that one of our classmates was missing. jean Remington had left for Northfield School for Girls only to miss us so much that she came back to rejoin us this year. Among the exchange students who went to Webster with Miss Barsam were Cynthia HoHman and Elaine Abelsky. That year the Boston Globe awarded nine gold keys to Classical art students in the annual Scholastic Art Awards competition. Those talented artists in our class who received them were Warren Hillquist, john Kollias, and joan Sylvester. We heard that Carole Damstrom was turning down Hollywood offers after the cheerleaders appeared on T. V. The social highlight of 1955, of course, was our junior Prom, Strings of My Heart. Despite the weather, Holden Country Club was really jumping and so were joy Hutchins and Roberta Neary after switching dates, And then with the spring came our junior Picnic at Whalom Park, which I'm sure no one will forget, especially Mary Early and Phyllis Bretholtz. Poor Phyll, Mary should have known better than to stand up in a canoe. The Aletheia Award and the Harvard Book Prize were given at graduation to Maureen Harney and Richard Seder. Later in june, Don Levine headed for the Near East with the C.A.P. and when he returned, we heard many stories from our cosmopolite. Senior year finally arrived and we elected officers: president, Rob Mortimer, vice-president, Carol Tessierg secretary, Kay Foley, and treasurer, Bob MacKenzie. Leon Husisian invented SALATOOBEE, our famous and intriguing war cry, which, with a little help from the football team won the Inter-High title. No one ever found out what it meant, even Al Banx. Among our terrific football stars who made the All-City Team were Bill jenkins and Hank Stidsen. Our Variety Show, Fisiology Fantasy, November 22, with Arlene Zitowitz expertly handling the fisiologists, was a tremendous Succesil. Especially remembered will be Tiptoe Through the Tulips. Who could forget those bright red garters and Buster Brown collars? On Thanksgiving Day, we saw a familiar picture in the paper. The caption said that because Classicalis football team had won the Inter-High Championship, Irving Street had been renamed Salatoobee Avenue. The honor was short-lived, however, when unsympathetic outsiders decided they preferred to honor the author of Rip Van Winkle. A Radio Club was formed this year at Classical, and it became so popular that Room 1 had a two-way set operating every morning. Because of the large amount of time purchased by the sponsors Csometimes referred to as the facultyj, time for requests and dedications was limited to 1:15 to 1:20 P. M. Among the highlights of our senior year, not soon to be forgotten, have been: applying to several colleges and keeping our fingers crossed, the frequent open house parties, the Varsity Club sports dance, Salatoobee Special, having our class pictures taken-and retaken, taking College Boards and afterwards deciding to take a P.G. anyway, finally going to the Senior Hop, once cancelled because of a spring blizzard, and seeing the Senior Play, Gramercy Ghost. Finally commencement has come, bringing with it the memories of Class Day, the frivolity of the Senior Prom, and the solemnity of graduation. There are not many minutes left till zero hour, graduation. Is everybody fastened in his safety belt of college acceptance? Our marks on the instrument panel have been checked and Captain Fenner in the control tower is giving the green signal. Let us release our rockets on the appointed hour and hope for a successful landing. WIIILIL CLASS or 11956 by Norton S. Remmer Be it known by all individuals and others that the Class of 1956 of Classical High School, in the one hundred and eleventh year of its existence, do hereby tender said very legal document as our last will and testament, and having unsuccessfully resisted its superior educational standards and having gleamed more knowledge, wisdom, and material than we shall ever iind it necessary to employ we, the above said of the aforementioned institution do hereby leave, bequeath, and commit to posterity the following: To Mr. Couming, a panel of experts to play I've Got a Secret, after 8:10. To Mr. Powers, an underground railroad to Tech for smuggling seniors. To Miss Gilbert, we leave Marlon Brando to replace Fred Glodis. To Mr. Weed, we leave the ideal girl who collects rats, snakes, skeletons, and uses formaldehyde for perfume. No one else wants her. To Mr. Rice, some collapsible desks that were made that way, to replace all those that collapsed. To Mr. Hearn, we leave an explosion to replace the one that blew up. To Mr. Kaplan, we leave a hi-li tuba, with a hi-fi tuba player. To Mr. McKinley, we leave the royalties from the recording of Go, Go, Go, Everybody.

To the future cheerleaders, Jake Salvin leaves a recording of Enrico Caruso singing Salatubie. To future class treasurers, Bob MacKenzie leaves his solid gold trumpet. Bob Kandall leaves his argument finger to be used to conduct the orchestra.

To the next director of the variety show Arlene Zitowitz leaves all the talents that made this one so successful. Louis Sandman leaves his space helmet to be used as a fish bowl. To any junior girl that wants to act stupid, Joyce Small leaves her acting ability - - from the play of course. Jimmie Murray leaves his record as the oldest established permanent Classicalite. Dianne Cramer leaves 750 assorted unfamiliar words to be put together into a theme by anyone who enjoys putting assorted unfamiliar words together. Phil Steiman leaves to the library his best seller, I Was a Fugitive from the Starter's Gun. Bob Bearse leaves his jaws to the school, so someone can keep track of how long they keep going. Kay Foley leaves the library and Mr. Couming in practically the same condition she found them. Parker Marden leaves his father. jerry Warren and Neil MacKenzie leave Boylston every morning to go to school. To Sandra and Susan Budnitz, Sally and Helen Patronas leave the stature john Kollias to keep them company. Bob Sienuc leaves all his ridiculous answers to anyone who has enough ridiculous questions. To future office boys, Mel Porter leaves a map of his trade routes with x's marking points of interest. To the juniors we leave the senior year, and to the sophomores we leave some of the juniors, who would like to try again. To the custodians, we leave a mine sweeper to collect all the papers that pupils say aren't mine. To Mr. Fenner and the faculty we leave our gratitude for their sincere interest and hard work in preparing us for the future. Signed, sealed and delivered with witnesses watching and everything legal on this 11th day of June in the year of Our Lord nineteen hundred and fifty-six. Norton S. Remmer, Testator Uzxfwinom Class of l956 Richard H. Seder A charred leaf, the brittle skeleton of a small animal, jagged rubble, a human skull. The earth rolls on its accustomed course through the heavens, but its green has changed to a dull grey. The sun rises and journeys through the sky, but no one sees it and no one feels its warmth. The stars still shine in the velvet black of night, but none praise them and none see God through them. Man no longer exists on earth, nor does life of any kind. The picture of atomic destruction has been painted so often that for many it has already lost its horror. Actually we are unable to face the idea that war can annihilate all life. Never before has there been the possibility that man would obliterate himself. In the past, wars were waged for economic advantage, political power, and national pride. Moral objections were crushed beneath the weight of popular sentiment, and all that man had learned about the ungodliness of violence was easily forgotten. If one nation considered itself stronger than its neighbor, it found reasons for starting a conflict, as the United States did in 1846. If a country desired to go to war and could find no excuses, it went ahead nevertheless with the war as Germany did twice in the twentieth century, for war was immediately practical. It consumed production and provided employment. It gave great power to small cliques of men and great wealth to larger groups. As danger acts to quicken the pulse of man, war acts as a quickening force on the pulse of the world. But as a man is exhausted after a struggle, so the world has sunk down after every war. Besides the immeasurable human misery, society has suffered from depressions, dictatorships, and moral degeneration. History has proved that no war ever left the world in a better condition. Individual countries have benefited materially, but the power and wealth they gained neither justified the war nor adequately compensated for all the suffering. Our reasons for fighting in the First and Second Wars were noble, if ever there has been a noble reason for war. After each, however, the condition of the world became worse. Regardless of the reasons for fighting, good is never a result. Few will dispute this idea. But war in the past is child's play compared-with war in the future. War in the future, simply and concisely, is annihilation. A If we, the youth of today, follow the footsteps of our fathers and the thousand generations which preceded them, a tremendous conflict will undoubtedly sweep over the earth. Many people believe that that which has been must continue to be, that the older an institution is, so much the longer it will continue into the future. War continues backwards into the beginnings of humanity. For this reason, many say it will extend forward unto the end. That which has been must always be. It is human nature. Idealists of former times ran into such patterns of thought. They lived and died, impot- ently trying to gain an audience that would not only listen but also act. But the world's attitude has always been an all-knowing contempt. Derision, mockery, and scorn have been heaped upon the idealist of history. He is the dreamer, the visionary, the impractical trouble-maker. Amos was exiled, Christ crucified, Savoranola burned, Woodrow Wilson ridiculed. Man, because he cannot see beyond the immediate future, punishes the gifted, far-seeing members of his species. Why? The reason is a mixture of fear and shame. The world fears, with a feeling of shame, that the idealist may accomplish in a lifetime what it has failed to bring about in thousands of years. It also fears his methods, which are impractical since he is attempting to change the existing order of things. Fortunately the possibility of total destruction has created a new atmosphere which is beneficial to the idealist. What is morally right has finally become practical. The dreamy-eyed idealist and the hard-headed realist, often contrasted as opposite and irreconcilable beings, can clasp hands in agreement that war is the crime of society. The teachings of the idealist will now be able to find ready acceptance, if properly Continued on page 36 0F , :J , .'Ap' - ' u - 'u Q -', 'D . , ,. 1f.,C.u:', . . , ',..

IN MEMORIAM ROGER PULDA December 28, l938 - - - November 20, l955 All that the pen can write of sorrow is empty, and it is not much. And yet we feel, how keenly, the loss of a classmate. We feel the need to express our refusal to accept the fact that Roger will never be with us again. Which of us will forget his good humor or the sense of responsibility he exercised toward the many organizations in which he was active? Our young minds shrink from the thought that one who shared our years of high school with us is gone. But we cannot question the justice of his death. Inscrutable is God's will and omniscient is He. For every life there is purpose, and none can deny that Roger lived a meaningful and purposeful life. He is gone, but we shall remember him. 23, IHUNQRS 23, FIRST HONORS Elaine R. Abelsky Robert A.

Mycko Elaine B. Casdin Norton S. Remmer Doris L. Fish Joan B. Sylvester Judith I. Grace Elaine C. van Leeuwen Maureen A. Harney Arlene R. Zitowitz Class Oration-continued from page 16. expounded. Taking advantage of the fact that all realize that no money nor commodities nor any of the devices of the financier can restore life to a barren planet, he must seize the opportunity to point out the basis of his ideals and demonstrate how idealism has forecast for thousands of years the present state of the world. The realist will have to advance the plan by which the dreams of the idealist can be brought to fruition. All reason today points to one plan which is as old as the Bible and as ancient as intellect. It is a plan which has won supporters throughout the ages and throughout modern lands. It is world government. The exact structure need not be discussed here. Undoubtedly it would include an international police force, social and health agencies, and many of the same types of service which the United Nations now provides to the best of its limited ability. Let those who dismiss as ridiculous the idea that countries as hostile as the Soviet Union and Communist China would support such a world government take a look at the history of the American colonies following the Revolution. Each of the states, jealous of its neighbors and fearing domination by them, remained as an independent unit able to nullify the laws of the weak and almost powerless federal government. The states gave no more authority to the federal government under the Articles of Confed- eration than the nations of the world have given to the United Nations. After only a few years, however, the far-seeing men met in convention and wrote the new constitution for the United States of America. The states ratified the Constitution only grudgingly, realizing after ten years of hardship and disappointment that they were unable effectively to carry out the functions of government, to protect and support its constituents. The animosity existing among the separate states is hard for any to imagine now, but the newspapers of the time testify to its virulence. As the states rendered their sovereignty to a federal government after the failure of the Articles of Confederation, so must the nations today rended their supreme authority to a powerful world government. In both the democratic and Marxist philos- ophies sovereignty lies with the people. In setting up a world government, therefore, the people would merely transfer the exercise of their sovereignty to an international instead of a national government. Nations do not exist as such for their own per- petuation, but only as the support of their inhabitants. Conditions today render national governments impotent to protect fully the people, and the people must transfer their political power, their sovereignty, to a world government before the nations destroy each other. Each generation has produced those who spoke out against war. After every conflict, a wave of revulsion has spread through the populace, especially the youth. Nothing decisive ever happened. Wars continued to be fought. Will the outcry of today's youth prove in the end as sterile? Will today's idealists become realists as soon as youth is past? The answer of today's youth must be strong and sure. War and the specter of war have plagued mankind for too many lifetimes. For too many centuries the best youth of every generation have been cut down and a multitude of miseries let loose: pillage and famine, disease and festering resentment. We are tired to death of war. Must that which has been continue to be? Such a pact with the past is a pact with death. We, children of the lost generation, children of generations of doubt and despair, children of generations of failure, blood, and destruction, can and must change the thought of men. The menace of atomic destruction is our strongest tool. If we are wise, we shall be able to turn this horror of modern science into a weapon for good that will jolt men out of their apathy. The possibility of world peace is more real now than ever before, as is the possibility of annihilation. Strangely enough, and happily, the stronger the latter becomes, the stronger becomes the former. We live in exciting times. We live in the times which may see the fulfillment of the golden age. And we are the ones who will bring it about. The choice is ours: one world or none. If we do succeed, ours will be glory and honor, and, even more to be desired, moral satisfaction and quiet peace. All religions teach that man has within him the ability to raise himself until he is little lower than the angels. In reaflirming this belief, we reaffirm our belief in the meaningfulness of life. If we ever forget, there will be no life. We feel mystic chords of Common interest And, groping through the darkness Group ourselves into Pools of light, Into constellations.
