IP1a1tsll1 Itiw's X-Xi i xarss by Robert A. 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.
