Frank Pearson, whose photography has made this Corinthian so attractive. • Dr. William Zcil, who helped with the selection of the cover design done by James Erario and gave suggestions for art improvements when they were needed. • Dr. Raymond 1. Haskell, for his time, effort, and many helpful suggestions as our sponsor.

At this hour of parting from the home and school of our past decade, the Class of 1956 salutes those wonderful people who have been our teachers, our friends, and our guides. May they live long in Girard with the energy, the good will, and the wisdom which have inspired us to do and to think our best at all times.
