Now, to commemorate the fact that fifty classes have been graduated from Ford City High School, we take pleasure in presenting the 1952 Tri- reme, dedicated to the past and the future. In our book, we have endeavored to combine the old with the new-to suggest school as it might have been fifty years ago and to portray the everyday life in a modern school, to produce a mixture of happy memories and hopes for the future. It is our fervent hope that the 1952 Trireme will bring pleasure to both old grads and new-through the years. fp.
