pjmnijpjii's iH5i ijf]fj TO THE CLASS OF 1952: As you enter upon the traditional ceremonies marking' your graduation from Ii. M. C. Durfee High School, I can detect in you that same eagerness to meet the challenge of the future that has characterized graduates of a less turbulent time. It is precisely this elastic quality of youth that is reassuring to a generation that looks with something less than pride upon the state of world affairs today. You are of the atomic age: even now, television and jet propulsion are almost commonplace to you. You have come to expect great things of science, of medicine; and you are convinced that there are yet greater worlds for you to conquer. You must also realize, I an sure, that there is a dire need in the world today for men and women of strong character, of personal integrity. Greatness of achieve- ment in a material way loses its significance for the nation or for the individual unless it is accompanied by greatness of spirit. The community, the state, and the nation look to the graduates of 1952 for citizenship and leadership marked by true Godliness and devotion to duty. It is my sincere hope that your training at Durfee has helped prepare you to serve with distinction and honor in the career of your individual choice; and I am indeed happy to congratulate you upon the successful completion of your senior high school course.

3tt iflUmflriant MISS MARY LEE MASSACHUSETTS ASSOCIATION OF DEANS Fall Meeting — October 20, 1951 Resolutions Whereas Almighty God, in His Divine Wisdom, has called His faithful servant, Mary Lee, to an eternal abode with Himself, and Whereas her death was a great shock to all who had benefited from her counsel, and Whereas we are bereft of the presence of one whose generosity of self and charm of personality had so endeared her to us, Be it resolved that an expression of our sorrow at the loss of this beloved member be inscribed upon the records of the Association, and. Be it further resolved that a copy of these resolutions be forwarded to the members of her family and to her former associates at B. M. C. Durfee High School.
