There are many more I could mention, but as I have mentioned pre- viously, the class was really outstanding and I consider it one of the best I have had the privilege to teach. I recall at one time during the semester, several students said they were so interested in this course, that they were seriously thinking of taking law and accounting after graduation. This is partly because I have tried to teach law and accounting on a practical basis for the pharmacy student. Or, was this due to the fact that the students were doing poorly in some other subject? As your instructor last year, I have had an ample opportunity of ob- serving the Class of 1952, and I can honestly say that every candidate for graduation today is of fine moral character, excellent integrity and should make excellent professionals in an outstanding profession which you have chosen. May I take this opportunity of wishing each and everyone the best wishes for Success which you have earned today.

Blue and white have a place here too, for with unprecedented vigor, your class revived our school spirit. The effigies, banners and sign ' s brought a fresh collegiate air into our halls. And now I see you once again, this time as seniors. Your glimmering pattern of color shapes into a rainbow road of future years, over which you will pass, seeking your own special pot of gold. And as you travel this road think not of the golden color of material wealth alone; think rather of the great myriad of colors that will make life more worth living, and the pot of gold more worth working and waiting for. Think of the brown of the good earth, the green of everlasting abundance, the shim- mering silver of love and friendship, and the blue and white of peace and good will. fctifi, £ ' Ktavitf The Senior Class of 1952 was definitely outstanding in my mind. The class as a whole was a serious group of men and women, with intent to learn the subject matter. Of course, there were times when Organic Chemistry prevented the class from putting in more time in Law and Accounting. However, the class did well in my subject. In every class certain students do better than others. Some are brighter or some students belong to more fraternities or sororities where the past examinations are available. However, certain students each year are remembered more than others by their instructor. I guess this is due to the outstanding work done or very poor work accomplished. But, if you do average work the instructor doesn ' t get to know you as well as he would like to, unless, you have other decided (?) accomplishments. I remember several members in this class such as: Paul Kipilman — Sidetrack ues r ' ons Harold L. Fish — Dancing Expert and Big Time Operator Leonard Bergman — Special Reporter Bert Levey — Dancing with the male sex Morton Pierce — Walking out of the UN Ralph Zakheim — Course at another school E. Scherman — Class Bully
