Student Body President PAUL EDWIN HILLIARD (PAUL) 1 5 3 Broad Street Stroudsburg, Pa. General and Carpentry Soccer, Wrestling, Baseball, Echelon, Glee Club, Drama tic Club, Student Body President, Stu¬ dent Council, World Affairs Council Paul had the confidence which made him one of our best athletes. He seemed to do everything easily. His leadership was fully recognized when he was elected Student Body President. He has earned a high place in our lives and our class. Dear Fellow Girardians: As you read this, Commencement for the Class of 1961 is only a few hours away. The walk down the aisle will be difficult for us, but it will begin a whole new part of our lives. Even though we are soon leaving, the memory of Girard will be with us always. We have tried to make our school a better place for you who will be taking our places. Suddenly we know how much more we could have done — we could have studied better; we could have done more for others; we could have been less critical and more constructive. You still have the chance to contribute; ours is nearly gone. To luild Girard you must send sound intelligent leaders to the Student Council who will support the principles and the people that would benefit the school in its entirety. You must face honestly the realities and find the truth, and then confidently and loyally live by it each day. If you do this, you will never be ashamed, and Girard, our home and school, will fnd proud recognition wherever it is known. There is an old saying that, An institution is the lengthened shadow of a man. Now at graduation tve fully realize and appreciate the meaning of those precious words because we are a part of Stephen Girard’s shadow. May the Almighty direct you in everything you do, so that you, too, may become a proud part of (his lengthening shadow. Sincerely yours. iPauf S. Ml ' laxd

JOHN JOSEPH PETRONIS (JOHN) 2012 Margaret Avenue Scranton, Pa. Academic and Machine Shop Soccer, Basketball, Baseball, Glee Club, WGC, National Honor Society, Echelon, Student Coun¬ cil, World Affairs Council The key to John’s position as one of our most influential leaders was his confidence, his good judgment and his willingness to listen. He was also a key man in soccer, basketball, and baseball. He has served as a respected leader and has been a staunch friend. Dear Classmates ' . Today we walk down the chapel aisle for the last time; we graduate and leave behind us our school and our home. Ahead lies a new world of opportunities and challenges. We shall take with us the train¬ ing and knowledge absorbed on the athletic field and in the classrooms and the high ideals taught to us by everyone in the Girard family. I am convinced by your work and your interest in school life that each of you is eager to move in¬ to the competitive world awaiting us. I also know that deep in our hearts tve are very reluctant to sep¬ arate and go our individual ways after ten years together. Looking back I recall the difficulties and the glories we have shared and which have nourished our friendships. We must not forget one another nor the responsibilities we have as representatives of the Hum in college, in business, wherever we may be. For your friendships I am thankful and pray that the Lord will keep us safe on the journey we are about to begin. Your faith in me and your cooperation in our work have meant more than my words can express. My faith in you is and will be undeniable. Sincerely, Q- ofin Q.. J e-tionii. 15
