Strains of martial music resound once more In auditorium bright with banner and fragrant flower. Expectancy and emotion permeate the air, And misty eyes are concealed By happy smiles of warmth and pride, As down the aisle proceeds The Class of 'Fifty-One Of East Haven High School. Now, as we say our parting words To trusted friends and well-liked teachers, Last glances at our school Bring to mind treasured memories: Our classrooms e days of study; Our gym - the many rousing games played there; Our auditorium a reminiscent of plays and concerts, Honor Society installations, and Varsity Shows. As our thoughts follow these diverse paths, We recall the youth of distant ages, and wonder - uDo we differ much from those of olden days? Like the page a training to become a knight, We freshmen started first with faltering step, With wide-eyed wonder and curiosity, To acquaint ourselves with teachings of the past, And facts and manners of our daily life. Like the squire, we advanced, With firmer pace and eager hearts, Upperclassmen, seeking higher learning To assist us in our futures. We experienced days of gloomy spirits, And occasional temptation To quit our upward path. But most of us reached that eventful day, We became the envied leaders of East Haven High, Patterning our days with colorful activity. Wearing the bright-hued emblems of their castle, Armored lords contested in the tournaments To win acclaim and award, And favor of their ladies fair. We, too, with vigorous spirit Strove for golden trophies to display a With pride we survey them, gleaming in their case, Symbols of the well-fought victories Won under school banners of blue and gold. 30 '3?

The learning of those earlier days was preserved, Laboriously recorded by hooded monks Who foresaw its value For men of future generations. Only a few of the nobility then Had any knowledge of this learning. Made so easily accessible to us today. Centuries ago men of Christian faith Joined in Great Crusades To save the Holy Land from heathen Turks. Today we are Crusaders, too, . g Endeavoring to steer the world To a noble, peaceful life, Founded on worthy ideals For which men of integrity have always fought. a If there be no alternative, We young men and women must combine our efforts On battlefield and on the home front In today's Crusade for peace. We have no coats of mail, 4 Nor iron shields, nor helmets, But our greatestweapons Are faith and trust in God. With these we will persevere Until the victory's ours. Meanwhile we graduates stand Upon this threshold of uncertainty. We ponder -- What shall be our immediate course? Shall we go on to college To pursue a profession? Or seek employment in the business world? Ought we not engage in worthwhile activity Until the call for active duty? Knights were taught to devote. their lives To all causes, honorable and edifying. Should we not follow their noble code And vow upon this memorable occasion, That we, the class of 'Fifty-One, Will devote our daily lives to self-improvement To serve and honor God, country, and fellowman?
