A.-..n..:.:L., -- .mt .. SAHITATORY Friends, Relatives, and Members of the Faculty: On behalf of my classmates, it is an honor and a privilege for me to wel- come you to the commencement exercises of Franklin School for the year 1950. We of the graduating class leave behind us many pleasant memories as we enter into a new social community and prepare to take our places in the com- petitive world. Although it is an old world, it is to us comparatively new. It is a mature world, confronting us with problems that we must meet with mature minds. As we embark on this venture from within the peaceful walls of security that absorbed any tribulations in the past, we shall continue to need your en- couragement and assistance to which we have become so accustomed. We know that while we traverse the turbulent sea of life with all its vicissitudes, we can rely on you for guidance and understanding. This is not only our evening in triumph but also yoursg for it was largely through your efforts, your sympathy, and your support that we have been able to overcome the obstacles along the road that has led us to this occasion. We salute you who now share with us a sense of satisfaction and exultation. There is planned for tonight a program which will include addresses by several speakers and the distribution of diplomas and awards. It affords us great pleasure to see that so many of you have come to witness these exercises. They mean much to us, but your presence means even more. Recognizing all our friends, teachers, and relatives gathered here tonight gives us a great feeling of gratification. It is a feeling that everyone in all parts of the world would be happy to share with us since it is due to the ties of good-will and common in- terest that bind us all together. So we, the class of 1950, salute you whose in- dulgence and helpfulness have been with us throughout our school careers. RICHARD BERNSTEIN 0 twenty seven
