w rt tale To MY CI.,xssM.x'rr1s: The graduating class of ,353 represents only ahout half of the students who started with us four years ago. Various factors have comhined to eliminate enough of our contemporaries so that we represent a relatively high degree of intellectual maturity. The majority of our class intend to continue their education. Of course. for some, graduation means an end to formal schooling. For hoth groups there is potential- ly muchivalue in the short time at EFA which still remains to us. Let us consider these last few weeks as a high plateau overlooking our lives' paths. At this point those who have devoted themselves to intellectual pursuits will receive the reward and acclamation which is their due. Those who purpose to engage in practical. husiness pursuits may give a hnal inspection to their preparation to see that they are ready in every respect for the tasks they must perform. Many who are eager to devote themselves to the building of a better, saner world may still affirm their idealism uncompromised hy the wx eight of cynicism or despair. Here I speak for the Senior Class in expressing our gratitude to our teachers for their friendly, patient assistance which has made our Academy career very pleasant. May we live up to the high ideals that they hold for us. Yours truly, Donald Groll Donald Groif Edward Hare Marguerite Cieri Iane Puxson 21

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The little boy and girl depicted on the Senior pages following might be you, or you, or you. They are there to typify the work and worries, fun and frolic that weive had these last four years. You remember way back in the fall of '34 when we started out with Phillip Flanagan, president, Suzanne Noble, vice president, Robert Chely, treasurer, and Jane Paxson, secretary, leading us. Then the next year William Hendricks, Antoinette Bovier, Mary Claire Kennedy and Stuart Bolger acted respectively as president, vice president, secretary and treasurer. On Junior Day we felt our pronounced authority and voiced it strongly in a special assembly presided over by our officers Thomas Gryska, president, Jane Tipton, vice president, Jean Roe, secretary, and James Schiefen, treasurer. In our last, yet best, year we accomplished a great deal and showed fine and commendable cooperation, even if We do say so. Wie sponsored a musicale, several parties and assemblies, a play, and what's more, attended them. Then we sold in- expensive pins, rings and name cards. However, to Don Groff and the rest of his capable helpers, Marguerite Cieri, vice president. Jane Paxson, secretary, and Edward Hare, treasurer, we owe good hefty pats on the back, for none of these projects could have been carried out so efficiently, had it not been for their interest in making this year a success. The Senior Banquet planned for May will fittingly crown this grand high school course. And so . . . here's luck and continued happiness to you and may you ever remember with a smile the good times we,ve had in good old li. F. A. all mn x , I , no .LQ
