I tody l , r(‘siili n| BRUCE ALAN GORDON (BRUCE) 6013 Loretta Avenue Philadelphia, Pa. Academic and Stenographic Girard News, Corinthian, Seminar, World Affairs Council, Siudcnt Council President, Soccer, Baseball, Basketball, Dramatic Club, N. H. S. A leader throughout his years at Girard, he reached the pinnacle of student offices at the Hum” when he was elected Student Body President. Winning three Varsity letters a year and being inducted into the National Honor Society added to his achievements. Bruce truly served his alma-mater as best he knew how. Dear Fellow Girardians: During the year that I was your Student Body President I have learned a great deal. Suddenly I see vividly that each of us could have done so much more and so much better in every day’s living for ourselves, our classmates, and our beloved school. Now it is urgent; it is the time for you to realize the importance of Girard College in your lives, to take advantage of the opportunities offered you, and to act so that your deeds express your gratitude. You must resolve to elect only intelligent, courageous, and competent officers who will act for the good of the school and who will not bow down to popularity. You personally must support them so long as they honorably fulfill their responsi¬ bilities. As you read this I shall be graduating and leaving behind me the security and kindness, the affection and protection which is still yours. Try to see it clearly and to appreciate it by your good work. [ 16 In¬ sincerely,

Senior Ihiss Pn iilnil JOHN CHARLES KEENAN (ARCH) 309 S. Sharp Streec Glenoldcn, Pa. Academic and Drafting N. H. S., Corinthian, WGC, Dramatic Club, Student Council, World Affairs Council All of us at one time or another have felt the effects of John ' s leadership and personality. His cheerful disposition and jovial manner will really be missed. We pride ourselves in having John as Class Prseident. Dear Classmates: We shall soon be leaving Girard and going our separate ways. After ten years of growing and living together, this is the end of the first important period of our lives. Commencement marks the beginning of a new way of life when what we have learned here will be tested. In a world where skills and substantial education are necessary for a good life we join the thousands of Girardians who have preceded us. Our years together will be among our cherished memories. There will be nothing in the future like them. They will always be a source of strength when we need it. I know that all of us will often turn bac k in our minds to the friendships we have had here and find a comfort and a reason for doing what is right. To do our best be¬ cause we are Hummers is a tradition which has continued over one hundred years. There is a respected place in society for each of us, and it is our responsibility to find it and earn it. As graduates of Girard we represent her in all our actions and words. In college, in business, and in our neighborhoods, wherever we may be, ours is a proud position which we have inherited and which we must uphold. It will be by our accomplishments that we will repay our indebtedness to Girard. Now we shall graduate and depart in many directions. Nothing, however, will be able to dissolve our friendships and our love for our school. We will strengthen her good name. I am humbly grateful to all of you for the faith and support you have given me. You have made this a wonderful year. May God bless you and guide you safely through the years ahead. Sincerely, 17 b-
